I'm not going to bother explaining the technical workings of adblock and which versions are better because this thread has devolved into a shitfest But I'd like to clarify something about YouTube: Text ads, banner ads, small boxes in videos (the ones without sound that you can close and play at the same time) and anything on the main/home page is shown by YouTube/Google They get 100% of the money for that and they are shown to everyone Pre-video ads are NOT displayed by YouTube. In order to display them, a user has to have a few popular videos and manually enable them. They get paid for these ads. Most major content providers (FOX, UMG, CBS, etc) display these by default. Anything determined to be the IP of one of those companies will automatically show an ad, but the ad money goes to the company. For example, if I upload a video with a copyrighted song, it will show an ad and the copyright owner gets the money. If I upload a video that is 100% my own work, it will not have ads, unless I choose to enable them, in which case I will get the money.

I would pay a substantial amount of money for a forum title of "swagmaster general" if there wasn't such a high chance of me getting banned

I'll probably explain the technical stuff behind adblock later but this thread made me realize is there a way to donate to the actual website and not the server itself not that the server is undeserving of donations, but I use the website far more and I would be happy to pay a few dollars every now and then to know that the website won't go under any time soon

"Adblock is piracy" is one of the most common troll lines there is but apparently Raz thinks that's actually how technology works

How The Hell Do You Play This Game?
Verumae replied to Arm the Homeless's topic in Roshan's Coffee Shop
uninstall and use the recently cleared space to download league -
I can guarantee you that the vast majority of my complaints are completely unrelated to my skill or familiarity with the game did you have to play through the entirety of Brink to realize it was awful

The final USB port on my laptop appears to be broken
Verumae replied to Gold Standard's topic in Techmoology
a PCI card does not qualify for the general definition of a USB hub, which connects externally and multiplies the number of available USB ports a PCI card connects internally, to the motherboard, and creates USB ports that did not previously exist, and will most likely not work with a laptop glad you got it fixed -

Because of the well-known statistic that literally only one person here is black (you know who you are), I've decided to put together a small survey for everyone here. It's kind of basic at the moment, primarily because I didn't want to release a 1,000 question survey in which you give every detail about yourself including SSN, address, and mother's maiden name. Thus, this basic information should help to capture some of the most important characteristics of SPUFpowered users. If you have any concerns about this, please tell me so that I can address them. I want to preserve the statistical dignity of this survey, so if you have an answer that is not listed, please use the "other" option. Yes, I know, it is a tiny box. If you know 236 languages and you are concerned about using that tiny box, please, enter all 236 languages and I promise I will go through all of them. Don't worry about the formatting, and don't feel the need to select from one of the answers listed. Don't be afraid to use the "other" box if you are at all concerned. Anyway, I don't really know what else to say, so here's the link. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1CR0JINIlKkxtDQ4KEvaDsRg-nfaRbPgiTU6e21xFTWU/viewform As usual, certain basic expectations apply, such as taking it seriously and not sharing the link with anyone who's not part of SPUFpowered. Thanks in advance. Once (and if) a decent amount of people take it, I will release the results.

Connecticut Considers "Violent Video Game Tax" to "educate" parents.
Verumae replied to Stackbabbin' Bumscags's topic in Current Events, News & Politics
It's not the taxes, it's the tax money, but the answer to your rigged question is yes See: gasoline and cigarette taxes The money raised by the taxes is going to go towards the propaganda campaign. The taxes themselves are not the propaganda campaign And by the way can we please stop with this whole "everybody is stupid but us" thing You guys have to realize that these "politicians" are 60-year-old men who have never met or heard from any of you Their mailboxes are full of checks from lobbyists and letters from ignorant mothers who want their children to be safe because of something they saw on the news If you really want to make a difference, contact your congressman and provide good support for your side of the issue -
Yeah, I sorted each column individually to protect privacy. For example, if there was only one black person on the wholethng, I'd be able to find out a lot of information about Guy just by looking at every other field from the same submission. Just assess it by columns rather than rows. Sorry I didn't make that obvious
