Injunction in 3... 2...

I don't hate Jews, I just disagree with the Israeli government, and its supporters' insistent claim that they are the voice of all Judaism.

FTFY. Nice strawman though.

I sense a disturbance in the lawfirm market. How long will this take to get to the Supreme Court? Years?

It will pay for some vacations, though.

Whatever. TFS, the summary, tells you how to turn it off. Nobody with an ounce of intelligence lives with ads in Windows 11.

Excepting maybe the start page on the Settings app. That has ads for OneDrive, Office365, and Copilot. Know what I do with those? I ignore them and get my shit done. Hell, I have to scroll the page to see Office365 and Copilot. And the OneDrive ad just tells you your cloud storage isn't working.

Does everyone have ADHD or something? Do you have tardive dyskinesia and suddenly jerk the mousewheel? Just ignore ads.

WORKS FOR ME

Thank you for trolling like a 12-year-old. It proves how intellectually stunted the lot of you sympathizers are.

The Chinese are blasting ships with water cannons and setting up bases on islands that are not part of their territory. The idea that they are defending themselves from aggression is ludicrous. They are the aggressor, and you are complaining about the inevitable push-back when a country adopts a hostile, bellicose, imperialist policy. North Korea, and China's inexplicable failure to contain that nonsense, doesn't help either.

The people who are defending themselves are those who have "ringed" the country with military bases in the same way you would put a muzzle on a vicious dog.

Autocratic, authoritarian, expansionist imperialism will destroy the planet at this point. It already took a terrible toll in WW-II. If these two bellicose countries, Russia and China, would end their designs of hegemony, and an unjust hegemony with an iron grip and the threat of arbitrary conquest, there would be no issues as you describe at all.

Please name the last time the US seized land by force. Hint: It was the 19th century. We are all too capable, collectively, of ending the planet to put up with this childish nonsense.

But it is something that might be on Air Disasters.

I see your four digit UID and raise you four! Your move.

I use PNG for all my web design. There are still people using lossy assets?

If four buttons on the left, and four on the right, it's the second one down on the right. Some of our local gas stations have kindly put a "mute" sticker next to it. On stations that haven't, the button still usually works to shut off the audio. I think I was at one gas station where none of the buttons muted the ads, and I stopped pumping and left.

But the audio is the only thing that's actually annoying about it.

As a side note, I would suggest that its very presence means that the ad industry is ready to collapse. First the ads got louder and shoutier because people weren't paying attention. Now the industry is rapidly increasing the number of channels. Even my fortune cookies have ads in them. In any event, when you have to get louder, more insistent, and more pervasively present in as many channels as possible, it's a sure sign that your message is not getting through and there is message saturation.

People shut down and stop listening when there is too much saturation, and vice versa. When they've stopped listening, it is necessary to saturate all possible channels. This is what I am seeing.

Unchallenged, unexamined faith is the only sin. Taking things on considered, experience-based faith, such as the skill of "object permanence," is quite important for your continued existence.

Indeed. You can literally rationalize anything. I learned how cheap it was in college.

Rationalization should only be used as a tool to interpret your non-rational intelligence. It's the thing really running the show. If there is unease in your guts, don't act on it, exercise a rational examination of it.

But x happened because y? That's why there's experimentation. That's why there's the untested hypotheses. You NEED reality to put a check on rational speculation, or you start believing that a witch weighs as much as a duck.

The people in this article, especially Musk, just want to define their own reality. It always catches up with you in the end though, if you are delusional about anything of consequence.

It does, however, explain why we never hear from the dead. I mean, who would return to this shitshow?

I know. Who TF programmed in explosive diarrhea? Is this some undergrad's psychology project?
