I cannot understand how some people are living with this. It is unbearable

      Almost, but needs a few tweaks:

      • Content should be border-to-border in the 2000 panel.

      • Needs to be 3 lines of content in 2010 and only two lines of content in 2018.

      • 2018 needs a slide-over autoplay video on the bottom-left of the content space.

      How about those mobile ones where they gradually move in from the sides to form a border around the content until you tell them to fuck off

    I'm noticing some sites have become pretty unusable on mobile and I dunno what to do.

    I used this scene in a cybersecurity training session. I knew it got the point across, when our resident ad-clicker asked me for advice to avoid that situation.

    E: she asked for advice for her home computer, as she didn't understand that "at home and at work" meant "at home and at work with any device, not just work's"

    I have a friend who has their entire center 5th of their laptops screen just dead. they move windows around it to deal with it. I look at the way they're using their computer and like I can barely reach it at their window size but it's better than paying the $500 MacBook repair to them

    I remember some video. It was a joke about IT remoting in to fix a computer. The icons on the desktop were shaped like a dick. Then it guy took a screenshot and was like I'm definitely sending this to HR as he sorted them alphabetically. Then the other dude was like "no put it back, infant find anything!" And the line that sticks with me, the IT guy says "there's no sort by dick".

    My former co-worker was daily driving his browser without any extensions and didn't see anything wrong with it. I was watching him work one day and he was literally fighting a battle against the unholy pop-ups just tryna download some free fonts. What could've been done in 2 clicks took him minutes to do trying to close all the ads and tabs kept opening, videos kept playing. It was painful just to watch.

    In Firefox, on Linux, behind a VPN and firewall with ad blocker, I run 5 different privacy/ad blocking extensions. I keep hearing about adds, but not seeing them.

    Supposedly Youtube now is getting more agressive on this? I wouldn't know. Haven't seen a Youtube notice about it yet.

    But really, I dream of the day youtube is replaced by something else. Fracture Youtube into 1,000 pieces and scatter it into the wind.

    my partner's mouse's scroll wheel has been broken for years. every time i've tried to get them a new mouse they stop using it after about 2 days and go back to the busted one. why? "idk it was too heavy/didn't fit their small hands/plastic felt weird" etc. deadass i've gone through about 6 or 7. idk what the point of this rambling post is other than people are adaptable to shitty conditions and most straight up don't care that their hardware/software is shitty.

    I just dual booted my desktop with Linux Mint the other day, for funsies I tried navigating the net (before adding UBO) and it was a shitshow.

    0/10 do not recommend.

    When you click the ublock button it says how many things they blocked. Mine is in the millions by now.
