So this is what DU looks like without Adblock...

Damn, why do people put up with that crap?

In my case, I'm putting everything back the way I like it after a clean Windows install that turned out to be totally unnecessary - actual problem was a ridiculous amount of dust buildup causing my gpu to overheat.

Note to self: Vacuum more often.

Plus, a clean install after a couple of years is probably overdue anyway. But it sure is a hassle.

I contribute money by watching ads. Really does not bother me in the least. I have never used an adblocker. I consider it to be a form of stealing.

Haven't been a star member in years, and now I don't even notice the ads. They don't bother me. I can still post the same as I did when I had a star.
