    If you're one of the majority currently viewing the newsgroup through Google Groups, you've probably noticed they broke layout again.

    If you use a plugin for user stylesheets you can use the following to fix the layout:

    html-blob {
    white-space: pre;
    }

    I'm currently using:

    <https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-css/okpjlejfhacmgjkmknjhadmkdbcldfcb>
    Thanks a bunch! Google support has been wholly unhelpful about this.
    Got it to work with:

    <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/insert-style-sheet-temporarily/>

    This still works. (Actually, I'm doing "pre-wrap" but whatever.) But it has the unfortunate
    side effect of doubling the line spacing. Is there a trick to delete whatever extra newlines
    are being added?

    I tried using Firefox's style editor to peek into the style sheets in use,
    but there are dozens of sheets with hundreds of rules in each. And I don't know what I'm
    even looking for.

    I found something. Don't know what to do with it. GG appears to be inserting <br>
    elements where the newlines go. So, can I style the <br>s to *not* break?
