I tend to look up docs and such from a screen session on my VPS using
Lynx (text-mode browser). My VPS provider (Linode) assigns a single
IPv6 address out of a /64 to a VPS, and apparently Google periodically
blocks the /64 I'm in. Lynx can't handle a CAPTCHA (of course), so I
don't get Google anymore for a while when that happens.
I tried logging in and allowing the cookie to see if that helped, but it
doesn't appear it does.
