public service announcement for people still reading LJ

If you're still reading LiveJournal and are using a user script called "LJ ToS-Boss" to dismiss the "you must accept our obnoxious new terms of service written in a language you probably don't understand" notice, you might have noticed that it stopped working. LJ has finally enabled HTTPS, and the script assumes HTTP. You need to add two characters in your copy of the script to make it work again:

In these two lines:
// @include     http://*.livejournal.com/*
// @include     http://*.livejournal.com

add a "*" after "http", like this:
// @include     http*://*.livejournal.com/*
// @include     http*://*.livejournal.com

This instructs the script to run on LJ whether served with HTTP or HTTPS.

(There are a very few people I care about who still post only on LJ and not here on Dreamwidth. I hope that changes someday, but in the meantime...)
