How To: Customize Your Chrome Extensions for Specific Websites with Extension Automation

Browser extensions help us do all sorts of things, and there's one for just about everything, but like anything else, they can be easy to get carried away with.

Code that we write here is usually scripted and written in Python, so we will use it as our examp...

One of the main reasons I was held back from fully switching over to Linux was the fact that media streaming is nearly impossible. You have two choices in Windows: either you use file sharing with Windows Media Player, or you can just use the Windows Media Center. But both of these softwares are not for Linux or Mac.
