first of all you’re not shittymorph, and second of all, I believe we prefer meta shitposts about beans around these parts

and thus my headcanon was ruined

I choose to believe they did, in fact, just post an image with a green canvas and white text saying “Frog wearing glasses”, simply because that headcanon is funnier to me

I was gonna say, 4x the amount of RAM I have, made me feel inadequate. like, “am I really that poor now? is my 2080 now considered potato gaming?”

it’s simply been so long since I’ve gone “ok I need to upgrade” that I’m starting to get suspicious

if you say so, whatever makes you happy.

I’ll concede the data plan dent thing; I hadn’t done any math regarding that. Thanks for clarifying that to me and everyone else!

I accept your concession, better luck next time.

But you did say “none” so I just pointed out the fact that it’s not none. It’s some. I wasn’t wrong to point that out. No matter how much of a stickler you find me for that.

pedantry is pedantry, if you interject with “well ACKSHUALLY” over literally a couple kilobytes of data in this, the Year Of Our Lord 2025 where common storage device sizes are in the multiple terabyte range, and 100mbps down/10 up is exceedingly common, expect to be called one. It is functionally none, because it is not 1993.

Autistic or not.

can’t even come up with your own insult for me, just gonna steal that sad attempt at bait from the other guy? how… underwhelming, must do better. 🤡

what a rude thing to say, especially considering I wasn’t talking to you.

I’m gonna keep it that way, best of luck baiting someone else champ.

lol

furthermore: lmao.

you’ve got to try a lot harder to “rustle” me, but I like your moxie for thinking you did, sport

doing the math, even the cheapest phone plans that don’t explicitly exclude data, nowadays include at least 1GB of data for free. Usually more. Almost any reachable amount of outbound requests to click on ads would barely put a dent in your data allowance.

Okay, fine, not enough to matter. Are you satisfied with that?

so use a VPN? if you’re the sort of user using AdNauseam, and is concerned about tracking, you’re probably also the sort of user who already uses a VPN.

1. not in this way
2. not enough to matter

the way it works is sending an HTTP request that registers as a “click” to the advertiser (thus costing them money), but then doesn’t actually let the browser download any content and fetch the webpage, basically pi-holes the destination site and any attached tracking cookies. Combined with the fact that it does this to every ad, it would basically poison any click tracking.

edit: pedants

and before I get any more of you, this is just what I remember reading about adnauseam, do not take it as gospel, go look at AdNauseam’s FAQ.

That’s because they aren’t pro-life, they’re pro-birth. After you’re born, unless your parents are rich, you can fuck off and die in a gutter for all they care.

“Life is a sacred gift” but housing assistance or healthcare for all is a bridge too far? Lmao.

Please, the true connoisseur already has their perfect porn downloaded locally and kept in an innocuously-named folder.

what kind of sick degenerate doesn’t watch their porn in fullscreen? Are they really beating it while going like at that tiny ass viewport? Why? You could study each individual hair on someone’s taint in full screen, so why limit yourself?

edit: wait, forgot it’s 4chan, of course they’re a sick degenerate or masochist of some stripe.

not at all arguing this is okay, not even a little

but

If you are the French government, and you know what the French populace has a history of doing to the French government, it would be understandable to want to keep your eye on them, no?

again. It ain’t cool. But I’m honestly surprised they didn’t hop on the “intrusive surveillance” bandwagon sooner, like, as soon as mass surveillance became feasible, and have the privacy laws they do.

honestly, this is brilliant. Not only is it going to make it easier to understand people with really thick accents – I’ve worked with lots of Indian people before (hotel industry) and I still get tripped up from time to time, especially over a crappy phone line – but it’ll also probably cut down on a lot of the racist shit they may take from customers. I can imagine the average call center employee with a thick accent takes a fair bit more abuse than call center employees who speak without an accent.

on the other hand, this might also make it harder to identify a scam call immediately if this becomes commonplace. Not that perfect English speakers aren’t also capable of scamming you, but, usually the scam callers aren’t perfect English speakers.

I believe Quebec already lays claim to that title.

No thanks to Vincent D’onofrio who is an atrocious actor.

exfuckingscuse me?

You seen Full Metal Jacket? I’m not here to debate the voice work in D2 but them’s fightin’ words.

press send on that post that you felt wasn’t of enough substance to be worth anyone’s time.

I feel like you vastly underestimate the amount of subpar shitposts I’m capable of composing (and then thinking better of) in a given day.

if it’s higher than $60, R* can lick my taint.

in fact, if the online is as ridden with issues as 5’s online has been, I’ll probably just pirate it. Why would I want to pay $60+ just so I can get squeezed for even more money via microtransactions; and having to pay even more for a mod menu, just to exist in a server without being hassled? Fuck that with a rusty fork.
