Dear coward, there are 15 stories listed on
The 15 stories in your first link include how many that use drama and rhetoric to direct readers to advertising driven sites that have merely reposted stories from elsewhere? Or do you consider a "story" about the fucking muppets something that wouldn't get rightfully slammed as clickbait spam if it was run today - you muppet.

I guess you'd call them all click-bait huh? No - what percentage then?
From the archived page you reference - fourth story, about fucking muppets, (which may be too personal for you to call it clickbait). "This Week's Episode - Will War of the Worlds' aliens scare off our cranky coots? Will Bewitched be the end of Will? Plus, Pepe the Prawn begs Miss Congeniality to cuff him.". 10% bin-spam I'd of called it then. Now it's just over-hyped bullshit that doesn't belong on
More ads - yeah, more troll posters, yeah, are the stories generally lower quality since Cowboy left, yeah. Do I think the current "story" about leased LEDs is spam - yeah (that's why I block all that shit). Are more people submitting spam as stories - yeah. Are people using comment to promote their products (like a recent scifi "writer and his sockpuppets) yeah. Are a huge percentage of so-called stories on the wider internet (from which
Face it, Paco.
Go fuck yourself with a garden tool you moronic bigot.
I think the fundamental difference here (so to speak) is that ISIS is not a fundamentalist uprising. Oh, sure, they claim to be a religious movement, but everyone in the region does. Fundamentalism, in any religion, is not typically accompanied by using sexual slavery as an incentive to get young men to fight for you (ISIS has quite the flexible and convenient moral code).
My understanding of ISIS (mostly from a Muslim Arab coworker, so of course my "expert" could be wrong) is that they're "religious" in the same way Scientology is: they have all the trappings of religion, but it's all quite contrived. They emphasize whatever parts of scripture helps their goals and ignore the rest in a very obvious and transparent way that fools almost no one. It's not that they're murdering "moderate Muslims" per se, they're simply murdering anyone who speaks up about how evil they are, or simply speaks against them, whether on religious grounds or any other grounds.
There are many other places in the world where IMO the problem really is religious fundamentalism, but those guys aren't raising armies and conquering vast territory. Even in Afghanistan it's just one tribe after another, not a united fundamentalist army.
I think it's a mistake to confuse the problem with fundamentalist Islam in other parts of the world and other cultures with ISIS and the Arabian Peninsula.
You, on the other hand, need your own damned custom browser! LOL I am impressed. I think you have some sort of record (for intentional use) with the number of BHOs that you have going.
Some web developers develop for all browsers, I'm one of them, I use tools to do that - many of them Firefox extensions. As long as the browser loads quickly I'm happy - I avoid crappy extensions, of which there are plenty, which slow the browser or cause it crash. Likewise shitty page design and bad javascript - of which, unfortunately, like unrepentant idiots, there are far too many.
If another browser works best for your needs - more power to you. Choice is good.
No wonder your browser is slow with all that shit.
Slow - not my browser - just you, or maybe you just have reading difficulties.
Wow, commemorating an outrage makes me suck? You have a very, very screwed up worldview.
Inspired by the human brain, UC San Diego scientists have constructed a new kind of computer that stores information and processes it in the same place. This prototype "memcomputer" solves a problem involving a large dataset more quickly than conventional computers, while using far less energy...Such memcomputers could equal or surpass the potential of quantum computers, they say, but because they don't rely on exotic quantum effects are far more easily constructed.
The team, led by UC San Diego physicist Massimiliano Di Ventra published their results in the journal Science Advances.
This is exactly the kind of fearmongering clickbait that the Slashdot of old was not subject to and its editors didn't fall for. If I would want to read crap like this I'd visit Kotaku, Gawker or Polygon.
You're not from around here are you? That, or your memories are damaged - 'cause ten years ago we did get this sort of bullshit ('course we didn't call it click-bait then - just spam).
