When it comes to dealing with advertisements when they're surfing on their browsers. I've just learned recently about how Google has or is killing UBlock Origin on the Chrome browser as well as all Chromium based browsers too.

We've heard for years about people complaining, bitching, whining and vice versa about how they keep seeing ads. And those trying to help them, keep wasting time to tell these people that they're surfing without extensions. Whether it'd be on Chrome or Firefox or another browser.

By this point, I've long stopped being that helper because if you cared at all about the advertisements you see, you would've long had gotten on the wagon of getting adblockers by now. You bring this onto yourself.

I use Firefox for over a decade now never had any problem with ads and if it occurres it's very easy to sort it out

Literally anything.

Except Wayfinder's revamped Echos launch. It's like $20 and it's super fun. Go buy it and support Airship Syndicate.

Washing hands, not eating off the floor, not drinking from the same bottle as 10 other people etc...

Just basic hygiene things

I'll likely always point it out, but I'm surprised at how few people are willing to understand how to consider a conflict resolved.

Imagine for a moment, you're sitting in a courtroom. You appear before the judge. You sit down. An officer whispers maybe three highly accusatory sentences in the judge's ear about things that have long been dealt with. Without you saying a word, and without a few minutes having gone by, the judge sentences you to practice forced disappearance or face annihilation in some form. So many times I've faced people who you'd think believe this to be how the journey from point A to point Z is expected to play out in addressing issues, in all spheres of life, complete with a direct rejection of nuance/elaboration, and it has made me wonder if humanity really is inherently evil, for a lack of a better word.
