This is why loads of people use adblock. I know its bad for sites but if enough people keep getting ads from sites like that, then they will go else where. Use ads that are not as intrusive and you will keep people. You will still make some ad revenue, maybe not as much as you would with the annoying ones but you will still keep people.

All ad types are displayed with the consent of the end. This kind is ricky but delivers more monies.

I think companies either do not disclose, or hide, the type of ads they are planning on displaying, hoping to get away with it for so long until the site owner says otherwise

I'm 99.9% sure and 101% certain that Neobond would not knowingly allow ads like that

I wouldn't jump into a LOLBIGNEOBONDWANTZMONIE$ conspiracy just yet. There can be a lot of screw-ups along the chain. The media agency could be doing shady stuff with their impressions rate. Or the supplier screwed the target list.

I was suggesting the opposite!

"LOLBIGNEOBONDWANTZMONIE$" is what the advertisers want us to think, do not fall into their trap, it is made of honey and tastes as sweet as a walnut, but the sting is like that of a thousand bees

I have not seen any annoying ads on my end. I am really getting annoyed with some websites lately. I think there was an ad on Weather once where it was about 720 pixels large. It used javascript to slide down slowly, and slide up slowly. So when I scrolled down to actually see my weather, as soon as I clicked a day, the slide up started to work so I clicked on the wrong day.

Not to mention sites that have ads or videos that play sound automatically. Horrible web design work.

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.

      Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

      Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.

      And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
