    Hang in There, Kogasa-san 1781

    Web sites that automatically play sound when you go to their front pages need to die!
    I always have my volume turned down, but just this once, I'd turned it up....

    Farewell...farewell, everyone...

    Reader-added tags include "Farewell socially, Kogasa-san", "Happens all the time with smart phones", and "Always have your earphones plugged in to prevent hazards".

    Please consider taking the following survey [You may skip to the next post in: 15 sec.]:

    What kind of ads do you find unpleasant?
    • Banners which subtly follow your scrolling and return
    • Ones that pop up right where your finger is with exquisite timing
    • Ones that take up the whole screen
    • Ones that instantly replay their video when you mouse over them
    • Ones that blink "Your PC performance is degraded!"

    Goddammit those banners. When you are on tight net traffic, this li'l crap can eat much more time and/or money than you intented, especially while browsing on move or when "you feel sizzling hot prying bar near your ass".
    The guaranteed removal of those banners often require advanced knowledge of mobile phone's intestines.

    To the point - there was joke running around

    This morning I've approximated average percentage of porn-fanciers on field.
    I've used Private studio fanfare as a ringtone on my phone. In a subway I've got a call. Almost half of the car got suspiciously running glares.

    This. so. hard.

    On Pixiv mobile, you can't even normally browse artist work without pressing a banner or advertisement. Like the forward/backward page view buttons are surrounded with banners. The location of the buttons shift as banners load, so pressing too soon without loading the full page is a big mistake.

    Really wished the iPhone had some sort of adblock/bannerblock ability.

    At least the app works pretty well. Unlike the DeviantArt app...still no opion to download images.

    Gotta love fatfinger errors. Always making things go wrong in the worst way possible.

    And advertisers wonder why people are using ad blockers so much....
