I was pretty into x86 asm in my teens. Nasm was my go to. Anyone else ever play with MenuetOS?

I'm a long-time Samba fan, but even I wouldn't run them as DCs in a production environment.

From what I've read, YouTubers don't get paid from views that use an ad-blocker, but they still do from views that have premium, so my justification is that I'm helping support the creators I like. I'm also paying for Nebula, which some of the documentary-style creators upload to as well now.

I'm one of the dozen people that bought premium to not have to deal with it. I'm just patiently waiting for alternatives to become more viable so I can jump ship entirely. YouTube is the last remaining Google service I still use.

We still use on-prem Exchange with Microsoft Office at work, and it's really becoming a problem. Microsoft already auto adds shortcuts for 365 (which we don't use and doesn't work with our setup), and the "Mail" app (which also doesn't work with out setup), and now I have to explain to people to use the regularly titled Outlook icon and not the "Outlook (new)" icon (which again, won't work with our setup).

That only allows DNS-based blocking of domains, which isn't going to be nearly as effective. A lot of modern ads are served up from the same domain that you're visiting. Browser-based ad-blocker extensions are in a position to block domains, URLs, and specific parts of the HTML DOM itself. This is going to sound rude, and I'm sorry in advance, but when people bring up pi hole, I assume they aren't very knowledgeable about how things work.

I started doing this a few years ago, and it made a world of difference. I dislike the whole process of using regular floss; having to wrap it around my fingers and then try to maneuver it around inside my mouth, all while staring at myself in the bathroom mirror is a mental burden. Now I just keep a bag of floss picks in easily reachable places where I tend to spend the most time, and I've ended up with really good flossing habits.
