Any ideas for ad blockers that work with a blacklist rather than the contrary?

I don't want to harm the revenue stream of websites I visit unless their ads are unacceptable. So I want it not blocking ads by default. But I'd really like a way to block the website-breaking ads at Fextralife Elden Ring wiki. That shit is crazy; it breaks the search bar until EVERY ad (including autoplay video, even though I disabled autoplay video in settings) has fully loaded.

I do almost all of my browsing with Firefox for Android.

Even without ranked choice it would be an upgrade to be rid of the college

Will that ruin my phone's battery?

Also what if I'm someone poor using an extremely basic smartphone to connect to the internet?

Sorry. Did a direct translation of the French name without thinking.

I'd never questioned it before now, but ... How come the towers move? Who had that idea?

The jesters moving diagonally because they're whimsical I guess but the towers are quite odd.

So it's called xlarge... And it makes files smaller.

Why.

Oh spam email I absolutely get a lot of. But spam calls, thankfully, are a relatively rare occurrence.

I don't know how I feel about that. I feel like the demand for cheap flights is largely because our ground transportation infrastructure is deficient. Where possible I think I'd really rather have fast trains.

It took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to get it.

In case you don't get it: autism and autumn are similar words.

You're making me thing: can we still do that (change the OS to Windows or Linux) with the new Apple silicon Macs?

Oof imagine the PR nightmare if people were charged according to their body mass.

As someone who played exclusively ARAM because I just don't like the main game, even in LoL, that mode is pretty chill.

Either even salty people can calm down when the stakes are lower, either that mode mostly attracts the non-salty people, but yeah, I would rarely encounter toxic people.

Can you elaborate?

All of those issues sound like things the game developers should figure out solutions to. If there's a boring behaviour that results in boring gameplay and people can't do much against that unless they have overwhelming skill... Yeah sounds like a problem that they need to solve somehow.

Because games should be fun.

Holy shit, I thought people were exaggerating when they said spam calls had gotten out of hand. I didn't think it was that bad.

Did they seriously use the same brand they use for phones?!

On the flip side, if you could time travel to that epoch, the ground would be extremely comfy for your feet.

You're motivating me to start looking into pans again. The only one I have is a warped The Rock ceramic non-stick pan (that absolutely does stick) and it has basically the disadvantages of Teflon (although I don't think it's actually Teflon) without the advantages.

I've wanted a quality, rivet-free, stainless steel pan for a long time. Maybe it's time, instead of waiting for my crap pan to finally die.

Oh I'm not worried about microbes. I'm worried about a gross greasy film that I'm not allowed to remove. If it gets on your clothes it can be a real pain, and sometimes you need gasoline to clean it off your hands.

As for eggs... I go crazy trying to make eggs in any pan at all without lots of oil lol. I've never used a pan, no matter what it's made out of, where eggs wouldn't stick. At least, when it inevitably sticks, i can go ham scraping a stainless steel pan.

And yeah we're together in wanting teflon pans dead.
