Unreadable English Wikipedia on Chrome: Browser Extension for Solution?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a recent change on the English Wikipedia page that switched from using "displaystyle" to "$", rendering the content unreadable for some users on Chrome.

The original poster later reveals that they resolved their access issue by resetting Chrome settings, which was linked to a firewall problem. They noted that disabling the firewall allowed access to the English Wikipedia, while other language versions remained accessible without issues.

(I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...

I don't know the basic concept of Linux but yet I am customizing my os purely relying on chat gpt and perplexity. when i ask chat gpt about this it said to fine tune an ai model and integrate to the Linux distro and my friend said for the data to be fed to the ai...
