Something like HTTPS Everywhere for new Opera?

This self-post was originally posted to /r/operabrowser. See more things from Dan's Reddit account.

I’m looking for an extension that will automatically redirect-to-HTTPS for particular domains, e.g. to ensure that I’m using the secure version of Wikipedia, etc., whenever I go there. The HTTPS Everywhere plugin from the EFF does this for Firefox and Chrome; what can I do to make this work in Opera?

Godzilla’s Family Vlog Review – Episode 12 – Secret Birthday Bonus

My review of Episode 12 of Godzilla Huntley’s Family Vlog was filmed on-location, secretly, in Godzilla’s bedroom, which I visited and broke into while she was on holiday in the USA. Later, I left her a birthday present (it was her birthday a few weeks earlier), hidden in her own room, and only when she finds THIS video will she know where it is!

Dan Q found GLCDYQ4Z The Oldest Pub in Stirling

This checkin to GLCDYQ4Z The Oldest Pub in Stirling reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.

Found with fleeblewidget on the way to a nice beer with half of reaperfish. We’d have found it faster if we hadn’t met reaperfish, though, because he found this cache back in 2009 and was convinced that my GPSr was wrong when it pointed me pretty much exactly to where the cache was. Eventually, fleeblewidget and I (and the satellites) turned out to be right, of course. TFTC!

Found with fleeblewidget while visiting my old friend (half of reaperfish), a local to this cache, for an evening of food and beer. A nice easy find, once we’d removed some of the wildlife that was clinging to the side of the cache! Didn’t have a pen with us, so I stuck a pair of googly-eyes onto the log: see photo of me holding the log with fresh eyes attached!

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. A very easy find during our little journey along the loch. fleeblewidget was getting tired at this point, and we’d both decided that we needed some lunch, so we resolved to find just one more cache after this one and then go and find ourselves some food in Kenmore.

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. A great little cache to end our adventure on, and go and find some lunch. Thanks for the series of caches (even those which, like this one, were a little damp!).

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. Nice hide, and a fabulous spot that really does look like it could be a nest for faeries or pixies.
