It happened another time when I was making a Halloween costume by drawing a giant Jack of Hearts on a bed sheet with markers, holding the actual card up in my hand as a guide - but that one was more understandable.

One thing I really do hate is a download page with a giant green DOWNLOAD button that’s just an ad link, and the thing I went there to download is a tiny text link.

I imagine it’s like me trying to watch a TV show with commercials after 20 years of Netflix. Holy crap, I don’t know how I ever grew up with all that noise.

LOL yeah I actually understand that last part LOL (former web dev, retired). Sites jinking around while the ads load and I’ve already started reading the content are super annoying.

If pi-hole blocks all ads how does the web look? Do pages have a lot of blank areas on them or what?

Is installing VSCode locally “self hosting”? I thought that was how everybody did it. I just run the executable - no Docker or anything - for coding, testing etc. but I’m not sure what a VSCode “server” would even do.
