I use FB Purity. Awesome.

That and a couple other tweaks in FF makes FB a reasonably enjoyable experience.

Thought I posted this earlier, but I guess I muffed it.
Facebook Blocker 1.2 is a good addon for Firefox.

They also make a version for Chrome and Safari.

I also have some rural property- not so far from civilization that I can't use my cell phone in certain areas on it, though. For quite a while I've had the idea to build a repeater to boost signal strength- at least in one important locale.
I have the first component- a WiEx zBoost repeater for the car (12V is important- no power at my ranch) and I have available several satellite TV dishes (the smaller, more recent variety- not the giant type described by the OP).
The plan is to put the 'outside the car' antenna at the focus of a dish and point the dish at one of the mountains nearby from where I suspect my strongest signals are coming. The 'inside the car' antenna would be simply mounted to a sheet of steel- say an old baking pan. The dish would be on top of a shade structure while the pan would be on the ceiling of the structure (antenna on the underside, broadcasting to the people under the structure.
I'm not a radio guy, but to my thinking, the two antennas wouldn't be able to cause any interference with each other in this configuration.
The repeater would be mounted under cover somewhere and should be powered by a car battery, which in turn is charged by a small solar panel.
Real low-buck concept here, but just some fiddling around with old parts so that cellphones would work better for myself and visitors to the ranch.
lol
here's more than I ever needed to know about the history of Halted and Haltek- (thanks, google)

Hal-Ted (now HSC) has been around for a lot longer.
I seem to remember another electronic junque shop called Hal-Tec (or Tech?). Maybe my misty memories are too foggy.
lawn, off, etc.
Another vote for keepass, but this time on a USB stick with Portable Apps-
