I’ve been informed that adblock plus sort of sucks now. If you’re looking for one, go for UBlock Origin.

    A diamond store in Canada has horrible ads with a man screaming in them. (all Canadians know who I am talking about already) I turn their ads off or switch radio stations when I hear them. If I was going to buy diamond jewellery I would go out of my way to buy from the store that is the furthest away from any of there stores even if it cost more. I would buy any mineral other than diamonds though.

        That makes two of us but I only listen to Radio-Canada radio as a source of entertainment that isn’t on my computer with ads blocked 🤷

        Neither do I. I don’t have cable and the only time I listen to the radio is when my alarm goes off in the morning (and that’s set to CBC.)

      I haven’t listened to local radio in years but you have just unlocked that yell from my memory.

      I guess it’s good in the sense as they have been able to cut through the mass volume of media we are flooded with daily.
