stackoverflow: save theme preference - browser

Suddenly today stackoverflow looks like this:
The blue color is undesired.
I tried to change the theme under settings. The theme is correctly applied, but I don't see a way to save it: As soon as I leave the settings page, the blue colors are back.
What can I do to get to permanently revert to the default look?
UPDATE
Could this be a virus? Heres' what I get on Safari:
I'm on MacOS Monterey. The first screenshot is on Firefox, the second screenshot on Safari. Chrome also gives different colors.

On the "FILTERS" bar at the bottom of your screen, click on the "circle with slash" icon. It will revert your screen to the default view.

Check the date. It's April fool's day.

The way you fix it is you click on your profile picture in the top, then you go to settings, and then you can choose your background. It probably isn't a virus, but I'm not sure.

Toggle Chrome Extension Icon based on light or dark mode browser?

I've tried searching for this, and the closest related question that I could find was from 3+ years ago and had to do with the incognito window being dark, while a normal chrome window was light back then.
Now that we have the ability to have a light or dark mode browser, it's hard to find an icon design and color that looks good for both light and dark modes. Here's an example:
In the image above you can see that the first and third icons are black, so they are hard to see when using dark-mode. The middle icon (the one I'm using for my extension)looks great on dark mode, but terrible on light mode. See below:
So does anyone know if there is there a way to detect the browser mode (light or dark) and swap out the icon?
Thanks to wOxxOm I was able to figure this out.
First, I needed to create a content script (which I called toggleIcon.js) and add it to the manifist.json file.
Then I added the following to toggleIcon.js - which sends scheme: "dark" to my background.js file if window.matchMedia matches prefers-color-scheme: dark.
Then in my background.js file I listen for that message, and if request.scheme == "dark" I use chrome.broserAction.setIcon to change the paths for each of my icons to the dark version.
This effectively overrides my original icon paths as declared in the manifest.json file (as shown below).
The only downside I see is that this requires a content_script, which if you want your extension to work on any page, requires you to also add "matches": ["<all_urls>"] to your extension, which slows down the approval process. Which is why in my comments above I mentioned I had been avoiding using a content_script.
Also, I think it makes sense to use the version of your icons that work best on light-mode as your default, because I think the chrome extension page will pull from these for some of the icons they use (and that page has a white background). As an example, here's how my old icon looked (not enough contrast).
Hopefully this helps someone else!!

Glimpse screen takes up the whole page. How to resize it?

I have an irritating problem with Glimpse.
I wanted to see everything I can on a Glimpse tab so I maximised it's size on the page.
Now I cannot resize it back again. There is no edge I can drag down. I am sure there is a simple way of sorting this. I tried switching off Glimpse, but when I switched it back on again it was taking up the whole screen again. I don't want to install and uninstall, so how do I fix this easily?
I am using ie10
I find a way of fixing this, which is to go into Developer Tools and change the css settings dynamically by using the CSS top class, replacing another class like margin, and putting in 200px and then resizing from that.
Another option is launch the Glimpse as Standalone tool.

Netbeans 8.0.2 Output Window

I would like to change the output window color from the default white to black or some other color. I am using Netbeans 8.0.2 IDE.
You can do by following methods:
Make sure your output window is visible - if it's not, just run any of your application and close it again - the window will pop up right after running it.
All you have to do now is to right click into the output window and choose Settings. That's it, a window where you can customize all the font colors and background colors will show up.
Below Image for reference: you can go Tools-->Option-->Miscellaneous-->Output
This Questions was resolved by Dipak D Desai.
Resolution Steps:
make sure your output window is visible
go to:
tools->options->miscellaneous->output
and you can change your output window(s) as you desire. Again thumbs up for Dipak everyone :)

mouseover text appears on all thumbs

When I mouse over a thumbnail in Tumblr Archive, thumb goes dark and text appears over it. But something has changed in my settings and ALL thumbs appear like this. I use Win XP and the latest browser is IE8. I don't get this with Firefox or another PC.
The same thing happened to me when I updated to IE 10. It is a compatibility issue. Go to "tools" and change your "compatibility view" and it will change it back to the normal view (i.e. the thumbnails will show until you mouse over them). Have one of the archive pages open, and change it, it should update automatically. If it doesn't fool around with the settings until it changes. You can change the "compatibility view" for "tumblr" only by changing the compatibility view for that site only.
