  • I'm just so tired of ads nowadays, ads for cars i can't afford, ads for crap i'm never going to buy, ads for the supermarket i'm going to no matter if they have some discount...it's all useless and a waste of my time and invasion on my peace.

    I bought the devices, i pay for the internet connection and i pay the rent on this house, i decide what makes it inside my house.

    I don't need this funny clip my supermarket made to market overpriced holiday food 46 times a day that lasts 60 seconds and is only funny the first time i see it. I'm not going to buy a tiny christmas cake that barely feeds a child for €15, realistically it's value to me is €1,50 compared to my wage and amount of food i get in return. I'm buying store brand m&m's and a loaf of bread like i do all year.

    If you can't keep existing without shoveling truckloads of ads into my face, then go bankrupt...i don't give a damn. You're not worth €16 a month to me either or whatever the price is nowadays. Just fuck off i'll get my entertainment elsewhere, heck i might dust off that ps4 and buy used dvd's for 25 cents a piece.

  • Deals are there, many are not worth the wait and the real (good) deals are often less desireable items.

    At least from what i've seen myself.

    But i always hope the more expensive stuff gets a discount so i can get something better than what i would've bought otherwise.

    Right now there are a couple 4080 super's discounted but it's only like €80 difference for a model i would only buy if the difference was larger, so i almost ended up buying a non discounted 4080 super model.

  • Modern day life over here requires the internet, our government has taken away options that use paper and replaced it with websites. Same goes for banks.

  • The reason i don't switch is because the price is fair enough and i have less connection issues compared the all the others we have available.

  • This type of news makes me want to step away from the interner entirely.

  • Wait...i should probably see a doctor, reading all this.

    I don't want to, i'm too busy trying to get other shit in order.

  • Not sure if this is widely known, seeing the local reactions i get i have to assume it isn't: nutella and peanut butter.

    I will try to throw some banana on the next pizza i get, since it's apparently a thing in Sweden.

  • I've been wondering recently if you could replace the pineapple with banana slices.

  • I tried setting it upfor my router.

    But the insteuctions just go: "change ipv4 to x" and "change ipv6 to x".

    There are no ipv4 or 6's so i need to add them, but it won't let me add without a specific name but it doesn't give me any requirements for the name.

    So i'm stuck.

  • It's with all those silly free apps tho, sometimes i'll go there and have some fun game which he installs on the spot...no ads.

    So it can't be with the apps itself.

    Heck i've burned myself on a couple of those games where i would go: "i've played for weeks, might as well buy out the ads and save myself the headache" and it will still have ads, for power ups or some other similar things.

  • You won't get me off adblock, as of recently i've come to find we get significantly more ads compared to friends and family.

    My dad plays wordfeud, so i install and play a set with him...about 5 seconds in i get frustrated at the 4th ad and my dad goes: "which ads".

    My friends keep telling me i'm taking the youtube ads far too serious as they are only 10 seconds and show it to me too.

    My youtube ads are 1 minute unskippable blocks before and after 1m 51s videos. I'll get a 1min ad block halfway into a 5 minute video even though youtube themselves claim they don't do that.

    How the fuck am i so fucked when it comes to ads, my dads phone is almost completely ad free. Heck the google top suggestions that are basically paid for ads don't even show up on his phone.

    He can play those free apps (advertisement feeding software) without getting any ads and he's adamant his phone isn't modified.

  • We're not allowed any firearms here, i could maybe 3d print one lol.

    I like a book every so often, but they don't play music all that well unfortunately.

  • What's the one in the bottom left?

    I have adblocked yt and pirated yt music on my phone, but those 1 minute ads between 1:50 songs on my tv are getting to me...bad.

    I'm damn near ready to yeet the tv off the balcony.

  • Sometimes i wish i had the balls to just tell them off, but that usally takes a lot of being pestered with bullshit until i snap back.

  • I know it's not about me, but this definitelt cleared up why i run from people in my free time.

    They always express how they think i do things, like i'm at work or something. While i do things for joy, i take a detour home on my roadbike because the speed i can propel myself at brings me joy and a bit of a thrill too. The scenery is also very enjoyable.

    But then another roadcyclist shows up and tells me how i'm doing it all wrong, how speed isn't a good measurement of performance.

    Fuck yo performance brother, stop. It ruins my fun.

  • Jokes on them tho, they lack common understanding.

    I watch a video about someone modding a shitbox and they think i can afford this new spyker sports car or any other 80k e car.

    Obviously that shit is a swing and a miss. You want to give me advertising that suits me? Start by advertising stickers about cars because that's something i could afford...not something i would buy tho.

  • Where is it tho, can't seem to find it.

  • Try to run something like fusion360 or freecad to see if your device can handle those, they will come in handy once you're ready for them.

  • Thanks, i like it...so far
