No I'm saying, imo, they're wasting a lot of energy on trying to get adblock users to stop using adblockers. Just my take, is all.

They're serving ads just fine. They're now targeting those that don't want the ads and actively try to avoid them. That's the main difference.

Issues like these will spur action though. I'm excited to see what comes out to compete.

Plenty of ways. Targeting your most intensive tech crowd is not the way to do it. You want the masses that don't actively try and block their stupid ads. This will eventually bite them in the ass harder then it's currently doing.

We've replaced Kotick with Microsoft lol

These ad block users should be considered the cost of doing business and they should be careful with targeting them.

This kind of thing springs users into action to either find or use work arounds or create a alternative platform.

So it worked when Trump was elected, but now it doesn't... how are these people on TV?

This is going to come off as 'non technical', because well, it's my personal opinion of course... Anyway, as someone who's been playing this game since Action: Quake, the gameplay just feels different to me.

The two things I can think of offhand with the limited play I've had so far (about 3 days now) 1) things feel zoomed out (I'm not quite sure how to describe it). I'm sure this has something to do with the vision/perspective of the new engine. 2) the gunplay itself, while having hints of CSGO/counterstrike, feels inherently different. Spray feels different, burst feels different. I'm finding single fire to be way more prevelent then before and headshots feeling different as well.

Again, my personal opinion and feeling of the game. Maybe it'll grow on me with time, but similar to CS: Source, it just doesn't feel the same currently.

To put it into perspective I guess, I felt that CSGO felt more like counterstrike (minus the guys and other technical issues of course) then CSGO did at launch.

Imo it currently plays like shit. Cs has a feel to it and to me, this doesn't quite feel like cs. The gunplay hasa very specific feel and I just don't get the same feedback when shooting on it.

I told everyone that once contracts for cell phones were replaced with payment plans, companies would start gouging their customers with higher phone prices because the customers could now "afford" it.

Greedy ain't the right word imo.

Have you looked at your phone recently? That's all that thing is unless you literally don't use it for anything other than calls and texts, and even then, phone manufacturers are constantly constructing their OS to guide you to other functions.

And they're hoping that you and I aren't paying attention

This is my same argument for gun ownership as well. While I'm not against people owning guns, to think that us civilians would survive any decent length of time of the government finally came down on us is laughable.

I appreciate it. I'm better now but I found it kind of comical lol

No, the way it is currently is any time someone in the news that is seemingly healthy but has a major heart issue (for example Bronny James) they immediately jump and say "IT WAS THE VACCINE!".

What are the odds I see this shit right after having a stent put in....

High positions of power/money/fame tend to attract those types unfortunately.

I left out of principle but there are a few communities I'll scan from time to time because they don't quite exist here and I don't have the energy to make it myself.

Of course, attacking McConnell's health was part of the game plan. She's not wrong though.

I would be super scared that the surface I'm walking in could potentially be lava. Cool AF too watch though.
