I will say though, if I could be GUARANTEED that ALL ads would be non-intrusive and free of malware I would personally stop using adblock.

If a site hosts a jpeg itself, and codes the hyperlink right into the html, adblockers won't block it.
That just, you know, takes a hell of a lot more effort than a magic-money-button javascript snippet, and requires finding advertisers who will pay upfront instead of milking "non-identifiable" profiles across countless other sites.

Don't remember how they started?

They still do, despite the slow and ongoing decay in disc availability.

Is it ethically wrong to change the channel on my TV when an ad plays?

The difference there, is that Mt. Dew paid ahead of time. Web ads, in contrast, pay for every thousand times the ad actually loaded.

If TV ads (or billboards) ever somehow managed to be as intrusive and invasive as web ads, there'd be riots and lawsuits.

When it started it was a DVD rental service. How'd the have the foresight to call it Netflix when it wouldn't be all internet for several years?

You, uh, rent flix, over the net.

I came here for gamefaqs - not taboola, pagefair, indexww, agkn, sharethrough, google-analytics, qualtrix, demdex, criteo, scorecardresearch, or cbsi.

All adblocking really is, is denying access to or from an untrusted internet host.

I have seen enough shitty ads overrun my phone to know that I don't have any reason to believe the people who run websites actually have any idea of the kind of schlock they allow to be advertised on their site and the methods used to deliver those ads to the viewer.

That's how it is, really.
Add a snippet of mystery javascript, get free money! Who cares what happens afterwords, eh?

If other full face coverings are prohibited then it stands that burqas should also be banned.

This is the correct answer.

find NoScript works better than actual adblock

Noscript also totally breaks 80% of the Internet

Allow [domain] and [obvious CDN], and suddenly 95% of that 80% starts working again.
All you're usually missing is comments, but those are full of poison anyway.

Isn't Alex Smith somehow the best quarterback in the NFL right now?

Executions are "bad" for two very simple reasons:
1. It costs more than just warehousing a prisoner forever, for some reason, in the US anyway.
2. It serves no useful purpose, apart from meaningless "closure" and petty vengeance.

Jimmy Buffett showed up for about three seconds, and feminists don't like him for reasons I can't remember.

Have you not ever wondered why we don't have barbaric punishments like the one in TC's post anymore?

Because strapping someone to a gurney and injecting a large amount of fentanyl is more efficient.

There is seriously no point in housing some people who are lost causes.

Yet, it costs more to execute someone, for some reason.

And what happened to him? I haven't seen him in many films of late.

Same as pretty much every other comedy actor, really: tried do do drama.
He's currently on some Netflix show I don't watch.

that being said I still think he would have done a better joker than any of the other movie jokers.

Yeah think I'm just going to write them up and give them a free pass on the suspension.

It's all you can do. Just be sure to note in the write-up that you aren't going easy on them, the lack of suspensions in no way diminishes the infraction.

This is the correct answer.

Not a lot of jumpscares, huh?

Man, what a turnaround (I'm from KC)

Was it really, though?
The game was pretty damn close up until the 4th, when Smith went all super-saiyan or something.

The only chance the Chiefs have is if Smith gets hurt early.

I had no idea. I did a little googling, but I thought SNK Playmore was still..., a thing.

Playmore is a thing. SNK is a portfolio Playmore owns. It's not much different from Square-Enix/Taito

If there was some way to resurrect any single game company of your choice, I wonder which company people would pick.

That Dakota Fanning topic might actually be creepier than this one.

They are legal adults so how is it creepy?

It's still "creepy" if the subject was under 18 at the time.
