As usual, MS is five years behind the curve-- 'epic' went out of style around 2007 (around here, anyhow). Rad idea, though!

Troll here:
Quit your job as a sci-fi writer who doesn't write stories-- you'd make a great engineer who doesn't build things.
Your user number is lower than mine. You are old. The time for talk is over, go make something.
Submission + - Adblock No Longer Filtering All Ads (adblockplus.org) 2
SharkLaser writes: Adblock developers have made a radical change to their addon. From the newest version forward, Adblock will only filter the most irritating advertisements. This includes advertisement with sounds, flashy pictures or animations. This means, for example, that Adblock is no longer filtering Google's text ads and any other advertisements that isn't irritating to most users. The developers are saying that this change should push website owners to change to less irritating ads, for example Google's AdSense.

It really blows the other stuff on the topic away, IMO-- it's definitely the first article in Discover to actually bring tears to my eyes.
