She might have used more than expected, but no, she would have remembered buying more.</p><p>She pulled another bamboo tube from the shelf, still mulling the question <strong><a href="https://sakurajima.moe/tags/over" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>over</span></a></strong> in her mind. </p><p>“Perhaps Sazen <strong>over</strong>looked restocking it,” she thought. “If that’s the case, I’ll give him a talking to.”</p><p>Running out of Gān Cǎo would impact the harmonizing of drugs.</p><p>“<em>At least it’s not Kokuyou. He doesn’t make that kind of mistake. So it’s got to be Sazen. I’ll make his ears sting.</em>”</p><p>She extracted a root from the tube in her hand. “Humm…” She inspected it, feeling the rough edges with her fingers. Someone had been shaving off large slivers instead of flakes. Pieces that would need to be shaved down later. “Sazen wouldn’t make more work for himself, so who <em>was</em> taking the Gān Cǎo?”</p><p>She tapped the tube, pursing her lips.</p><p>Still puzzled, she made her way to the Verdigris’s main building. Madam’s voice drifted out from a side room, “… and he broke it, and you didn’t charge…” Mao felt sorry for her victim, but she was right: you break it, you buy it.</p><p>Ukyou, their bouncer and Madam’s right-hand man, sat by the door. He raised his eyebrows and nodded toward Madam’s room.</p><p>“<em>Just the person I’m looking for,</em>” Mao thought. “<em>He knows everything and keeps quiet when it doesn’t matter. No point in Grandma knowing what I’m after.</em>”</p><p>“Whose grandma got in there?” she asked. Not that she cared. But the conversation would go better if she seemed sympathetic.</p><p>“… Of course you’ll pay for it…” Madam’s voice had that cold edge, signaling she was concluding the lecture.</p><p>“Suiren, she should have known better, but she let a client bully her.” He held up his hands helplessly. “Now she answers to Madam. Not the wiser path.”</p><p>“… twice its value, and…” Madam’s voice dropped, leaving the ultimate punishment in question.</p><p>Mao promptly forgot both that and the young courtesan’s name.</p><p>“I was wondering,” Mao changed the subject, “if any of the women have been looking ill: bloated, flushed, or unusually tired, like she’s been drinking too much. She might not be taking as many clients, or they’ve been complaining she’s off.”</p><p>“I knew you wanted something. Why did you even bother asking about Suiren? I bet you don’t even remember her name.”</p><p>Mao shrugged. It was true; she’d already forgotten the name.

The sites use <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Cloudflare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cloudflare</span></a>, and it would give the "prove you're a human by checking this box" prompt. I'd never had problems with this before.</p><p>Suddenly that started failing consistently. Clicking the box would do something, but then just reload the challenge. There was no way to pass it. I tried reconfiguring and even disabling the "uBlock Origin" extension, cookie policies, other things - no luck.</p><p>Based on a comment on this discussion:<br><a href="https://ask.metafilter.com/385480/fixing-Verify-You-Are-A-Human-Firefox-cookies-UBlock-Origin" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">ask.metafilter.com/385480/fixi</span><span class="invisible">ng-Verify-You-Are-A-Human-Firefox-cookies-UBlock-Origin</span></a></p><p>... I tried disabling the "Disable HTML5 Autoplay" extension, and ... fixed! That was *not* an obvious candidate for causing the problem, unlike adblockers etc.</p><p>So it appears Cloudflare changed their in-browser testing JS such that it requires HTML5 autoplay to pass the check. Which is ... special. I can think of lots of people with very good reasons to have that disabled.</p><p>Anyways, I hope this helps someone.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>browser</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/check" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>check</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BrowserCheck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BrowserCheck</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/human" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>human</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/robot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>robot</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ProveYoureHuman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProveYoureHuman</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/AreYouHuman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AreYouHuman</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/fail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fail</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/blocked" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blocked</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/website" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>website</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/protection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>protection</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/HTML5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HTML5</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/autoplay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>autoplay</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/extension" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>extension</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BrowserExtension" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BrowserExtension</span></a></p>
