What breed of fire-breathing dog do we have here?

Miracles!

From what I gather, past insulator discoveries allowed electron flow in three or two dimensions, but this new discovery only allows flow in one dimension. I think of it like plumbing, where you have a tee, and the water (electrons) travel through the pipe in three directions (dimensions). Restricting the flow of electrons allows for better focus/flow, which makes for more precise electronic engineering methods.

An EE might be able to elaborate better than my crappy plumbing analogy.

I have not! Gotta give that a listen, thanks for the heads-up!

But Mollusk has some bangers on it too (Buckingham Green).

Why yes, yes I am down with the brown.

Good to know, thanks for sharingn Glad to hear you've found a solution.

I have noticed a similar behavior on one of my machines recently. Usually it's a video (or recently played Spotify song) that gets 'stuck' there. Have you tried opening a new instance of Firefox, playing a video, then lock the computer (win + L) to see if it- at the very least- changes/updates to the newly opened video?
