There's the depagination extension on Firefox. I'm not aware of similar for Chrome.

Another that works far too often is:

    lynx --dump <url> | less
... where I use the dump as less is far easier to navigate than lynx (never really could get used to it). w3m also works pretty well.

Or pandoc, which can fetch from URL and output to your specified format (another good way of bypassing craptastic Web formatting). Hrm...

Interesting. I get a TLS error attempting this on HN.

Holy crap, HTML through pandoc is a great solution. Thank you!

You're welcome.

I just discovered that reading through the manpage the other day ;-)
