    I don't disable it through those flags. I use the launch flag.
    --disable-background-timer-throttling --load-extension

    IMO it's better to just enable it through the flags so it's a persistent change regardless of which shortcut you use to launch Chrome.

    As far as we are aware....

    Nothing.

    That ofc could have been fixed in an update to chrome.

    I also just remembered, I saved a good chunk of time on the foreign Interest Audits by following these directions to disable language translation in my mTurk Worker profile:

    It does require you to buy shit off of amazon to get the credit... but most of us buy plenty of shit so it shouldn't be an issue.
