Homepage display problem only if user not logged in


Recommended Posts

There is a problem on the Neowin homepage if the user is not logged in. In this case 2 empty places appear in the main topic pictures section.

 

If the user is logged in, there is no problem.

 

If I remember well, the very same issue occurded in the past (about 2 years ago ?) and I reported it in the same way and it was fixed immediatly.

 

Keep on the great job!

 

BR,

 

CTRL + F5 the fix has been implemented on the advertisers end (long story but it has to do with the styling) an adblocker will block the javascript that fixes it!

 

The other workaround is to be logged in while viewing Neowin.

 

Logged out view (from The Netherlands, I don't get the ad, an article is there in the 4th spot)

Logged out, but using a VPN to New York City (where the ad is shown).

Like I said, this will happen if you are blocking ads, I can see that you are because there is no ad above the Community Activity in the sidebar.

 

The advertiser had to implement a fix for when an ad doesn't load due to the styling of the news articles. no ad leaves the 'article class' styling there, empty, a bit of javascript removes the blank if no ad is shown.

    • Lots of people use it without having an angsty Gotterdammerung.
    • Why certain models only? It should be provided on all high end phones.
    • I don't use it too (only for shutdown/restart), but it's because I have pinned all my frequently apps directly in the taskbar. For search files, I use the PowerToys Run app. But, I understand that a place where ALL apps are listed and available is needed.
    • The M4 Mac Mini with 16GB of RAM gets a massive discount by Taras Buria If you want to try macOS without spending over a thousand bucks on a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, the Mac mini is a perfect choice, especially with a new discount that brought the price to a new all-time low—as low as $469, which is a very tempting deal, considering what the M4 Mac mini offers. The M4 Mac mini is the first Mac mini redesign in quite a few years. This tiny desktop computer features two front-facing USB-C ports and a headphone jack, plus an Ethernet port, HDMI, and three Thunderbolt 4 Type-C ports on the back. The computer is powered by a 10-core Apple M4 processor with 10-core graphics, which is one of the most powerful ARM processors for modern computers. You also get 16GB of unified memory and 256GB of fast SSD. Apple claims that this Mac mini is up to 13 times faster than the fastest Intel-based Mac mini. The M4 Mac Mini supports Apple's latest macOS version, like the recently announced macOS 26 Tahoe and all of its features, including Apple Intelligence capabilities. It is also a great choice if you need a versatile desktop PC that can run both Windows on ARM and macOS. Another benefit of this tiny PC is that it draws very little power while offering a powerful processor and graphics. The best part is that it is now 22% off, which saves you $170 off the MSRP ($599).
