Pay or fuck off, no ads.

Contrary to what you seem to have understood with my previous post, I’d be absolutely fine with this.

I will block any and every ad I possibly can using all technology available to me. Does that break someone’s business model? Too bad. Do I care if all this glorious ad-sponsored content goes away forever because of the actions of me and others like me? Not even a little bit. In fact, I will welcome the day that ad blocking gains enough momentum that it causes businesses to go under or restructure their entire operational model. If ads are the only way something can exist, then it deserves to die.

In case it wasn’t clear enough: I don’t care.

I’ve been working in the IT/Internet industry for over 30 years, in one form or another. I understand how things work and I probably have a better perspective than most on how dysfunctional we have become.

AdGuard (app & DNS) does a decent job on iOS.

org-mode is awesome for many reasons, but the similarities/overlap with markdown are an incidental benefit. I wouldn’t learn org-mode for that reason, however there are many other good ones that make it worthwhile. I’ve been using it for years for my own project management, tasks tracking, notes and many other things - it’s one of those rare tools that can do many things incredibly well.

So intuitive!

It’s more a system of an abuse and profit than speficially “medical”. That anyone gets better is purely a marketing/sales feature.
