seems to pause for 5-10 seconds, while the ad plays out of site. i can wait

firefox addons. they almost all have a ‘not maintained’ warning. use at your own risk, as they say

then theres this yt related thing. don’t think it does much

gvmnt-person needs money, squawk about monopoly. cha-ching. installed on everything

+1 combo. privacy badger, ublock origin and umatrix for fine tuning. also a youtube specific addon. seems okay

/me chuckles in umatrix

yt pops up that ‘slowdowns? read more…’ nag while i’m not watching the ad. make me feel special

jup, offend the right accounts. digitally disappear from ‘their’ site. fun way out. bot accounts probably masquerade as click-bots broadcasting weather reports, spamming slop etc. clicking ads to inflate ad revenue or spread disinfo. crude but effective. the efforts are amazing if they weren’t so annoying. think facebook axed my account because i blocked too many bots/ads, for years though. tw showed me the door in a few months. interfering in their schemes

bad backup vibes there boss? backup was the task?

your odds of winning, having a fire and getting a new house. yeah not a win but

wonder if they’d take this bet. not far off topic, buying insurance in america. allstate. i’ll bet you $100 if your house burns down we’ll buy you a new one

allstate; win

they win like 99.76% of the time. more; after digging through a few slop sites, dug up these values, roughly. no ai bs 145,000,000 houses , 344600 fires in 2023. bet $100/month x # of customers = $99.76 net revenue/month - (office buildings, advertising, wages etc.) per customer. check my sketchy math. please? having trouble believing this. they bend over backwards to not insure risky areas.

actually … never mind

the unix-time zero can blow up sloppy code too. but not often. one of few dates i can remember.

root giggles

are you filming this? 👊

Think of the 3rd grade math, made up charts they willl trot out about #kill r#atios. ‘ask ai about truth’ /s

hmm, not to sound smug but, you people need a hashtag to tell which way the wind blows. ‘going viral’ is such a ‘breaking news’ clickbait. windows users need to get a clue, that part is true. i kicked my brother out of my house for kept tryting to show me how easy ai made art. is os political now? you can guess his other issues. Rambling now
