That’s like cake in Scrubs.

Sadly, no, due to it blocking via DNS. AFAIK the only way to block YouTube ads on TV is by sideloading a third party app.

100% on the same page, except that I do have and appreciate my pihole.

The last 1% of ads.

I was just joking, you seem satisfied with your situation; however, a pihole is rarely a bad option.

Then the solution is even simpler!

Sounds like someone has a pihole.

If that’s the case and the ads still work 1% of the time, maybe update the blocklist?

Myspace Tom I know. Thank you!

The very first time I can remember getting spam, I was approximately seven. It was an email linking to a porn site, not that I understood that at the time; I don’t actually recall what enticed me to click - I think they referenced “playing in a jungle” and that sounded fun. The text said (roughly, it’s been over three decades) “come look at my site! I’m not wearing any clothes!” and linked to a site featuring several scantily clad individuals but, immediately on entry, a lady in high heels and nothing else.

I took the email at face value and responded, informing the surely real person sending it that shoes counted as clothes.

If I look up “Myspace Jim,” I get this: https://myspace.com/jim

Is that what you meant? Based on the result when I load the page, it doesn’t seem reference worthy, but I don’t know of anything else that would be a solid meme.

This isn’t meant to attack you or your comment, just resolve my own lack of knowledge.

For what it’s worth, when I read your comment, my thoughts went to “it’s worse than that, he’s dead, Jim, dead, Jim.”

This reminds me of once when I was playing the original EverQuest. Someone named Dunn entered the zone and everyone there started OOC broadcasting anything from “Dunn!” to “Dun dun duuuuuuuun!” I was young and sheltered and didn’t get the reference; I messaged the guy something like “what was that all about?” and apparently he didn’t, either. Probably pretty fun to be that popular for thirty seconds for no known reason, though.

I think it depends on what you’re trying to do (with the versions of notepad I’ve used). It’s great for just putting a bunch of text in a file. If you want to do literally anything else, it sucks, but it serves its purpose well.

I’d rather use vim for the most part, but if I have to take notes in Windows, notepad was my go-to.

Fantastic, just fantastic.

I feel like AI is the antithesis of notepad, conceptually.

edit: antithesis, not activities. Thanks, autocorrect, for rendering my comment nonsensical.

I haven’t used Windows for years, so I can’t say what it is now, but it used to be great for note taking (as you might guess) and basic text editing. Basically anything that didn’t require any formatting. In fact, I used to use it to remove formatting from text during copy and paste back before “paste without formatting” was an option.

If you were making a joke and I was oblivious, I apologize.

Does Windows no longer have notepad?

That’s not a bad suggestion, but may interfere with 24 hour clocks.

That is confusing. “PM” is “post meridian” or, as I understand it, after the middle. One would think it wouldn’t be PM until 12:01 or at least 12:00:01.

Which is why I, as you said, use “noon” and “midnight.”
