See though, the thing is my idea of “optimal performance” means using an app without seeing any ads. So, no I don’t think I’ll be turning it off.

looks like we need ad blocker detection blockers now.

DoucheBagMcSwag ,

A username named “Reek” had one but it hasn’t been updated in years

kilgore_trout ,

It’s blacklisted by uBlock Origin, I don’t remember with which claims.

No, it is sfw. It is onlyfan.

ogwillikers ,

OnlyFans sounds sfw. BigAssFans doesn’t. And yet…

How bizarre. I mean, you’re trying to pay them money.

They deserve double money

Don’t forget to tip your pop-up ads

experience optimal performance

Phone immediately bricks due to the sheer volume of malware and ads piling into the browser.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

That’s optimal performance for “put your phone down and go to the restaurant yourself”, which makes more money for KFC.

adguard for desktop, adguard DNS inside your VPN on your phone.

Load adguard for desktop with anti-adblock killer and fuckfuckadblock. And use brave browser with fingerprint and ad blocking set to aggressive and strict.

I very rarely get any bullshit notifications like this.

pineapplelover , to mildlyinfuriating in Can't even buy chicken in peace

Went to some kind of restaurant chain once (red robin I think?) and there were ads as we were eating.

pikmeir ,

Yeah they put ads on that little screen you use to pay. Also it never has any receipt paper loaded.

optimal performance

WTF

MystikIncarnate , to mildlyinfuriating in Can't even buy chicken in peace

Remember kids, adblock stops more than just the ads you see.

Also, fuck yeah I’d download a chicken tender.

ublock origin, adguard and brave’s adblocking are way better than the “adblock” extension.

Brave? Please educate yourself and stop using that piece of garbage.

qwerty ,

What’s wrong with brave?

Edit: If you can’t switch to Firefox and you’re looking for a good alternative that’s privacy-focused and functionally similar, take a look at Vivaldi. Solid chrome-based browser.

@lemmesay@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I wouldn’t call Vivaldi ‘a good alternative’.
brave at least has cared about maintaining their source code on github. Vivaldi, on the other hand, just [vomits tar.xz on their website]vivaldi.com/source/) and that’s it. they also have made ui closed source.
they don’t have an opt-out for their data collection.

I personally use nothing expect librewolf(hardened Firefox fork). but brave is a sane choice for those who are spoiled by chrome.
the only praise I hear about Vivaldi is their tabs(?).

qwerty ,

Most of the article talks about the CEO and the company, the only criticisms of the actual product (the browser) is that it’s bloated, which is very subjective because one mans bloat is another mans feature and the affiliate link injection scandal from 4 years ago, which definitely shouldn’t have been done but at least it wasn’t malicious and now is gone.

To be honest I think people on here dislike brave primarily due to ideological reasons, completely ignoring the fact that 99.9% of people aren’t hackermans™ and don’t want to install gnu icecat or librewolf with 7 different extensions. For those people it’s either chrome/edge or brave, the latter, even if not perfect is a way better option both for them and the internet.

MystikIncarnate ,

Ahem. I was referring to “Adblock” as a class of software, not referring to one specific program (the same way that websites refer to blocking ads as “Adblock”).

You have made an incorrect assumption.

tordenflesk ,

It’s unfortunate that Adblock has become the Zerox/Google/Velcro of un-shittyfying software.

Some server fans are very powerful. I certainly wouldn’t want to be near a rack full of these without hearing protection.

0x4E4F OP ,

He’s overdriving it though, you don’t use a lab supply to power a fan unless you’re planning on pushing it above 12V.

cmnybo ,

It could be overdriven, but a lot of the higher powered fans are 24 volts.

0x4E4F OP ,

Yeah, but not this small, the 12cm ones, sure.
