Playing through Persona 3 Reload at the moment. Not come across this gem yet but I have come across this:

Good time to mention this if you don’t already use it, or if you do use blockers, maybe consider this:

It’s AdBlocker, BUT actually, what it does is “click” on all the ads. Every adclick costs the advertisers, and makes targeting ads meaningless because of all the noise. From your end, nothing has changed, the ads are gone… but from the advertisers end, you’re costing them more money and making their data useless.

For real. No one else in my life uses Adblocker, so when I visit, I’m reminded of how horrible ads have gotten.

Whenever I disable it to access a feature that breaks under it, I remember how cursed these sites have become. Reminds me of just before pop-up blockers were common.

My work PC does not have adblock, and I’m always a little culture shocked whenever I am forced to use Edge for something.

I should replay P4

If you look reeeeeeallly closely at the space beside the shirt, then you can see a cum sock.

I have basic Adblockers just so I don’t have to deal with the clutter, but I’m not a bitch about ads. If a YouTube vid had ads I just hit the skip if I can, or sit through it. If an ad pops up while I’m scrolling through whatever news or media site, I just scroll past or click through and brush it off.

These people who act like they’re being abused or tortured because they have to look at an ad or watch a few commercials make no sense to me. It reeks of entitlement.

Just because the internet is filled with information doesn’t mean it’s free. It costs money to write articles and make videos. If we’re not paying them with cash then we’re paying them with a little time or consideration.

As long as the ads aren’t obnoxiously loud or animated or otherwise irritating, they’re just part of the experience.

But then I grew up pre-internet, when you had no choice but to sit through 10 minutes worth of commercials to enjoy 20 minutes worth of tv episodes.
