May I offer you a previously viral, now stale meme with your updoot simulator?

 

If you ever feel hopelessly useless, remember that every reddit ad has a vote widget that does absolutely nothing. And, at least that, is not your fault.

the house of the dead updoots

I do not fear monsters under my bed or in my darkened closet, nor do I fear retirement, which is just as imaginary.

Average parabola denier.

Yeah, I have much more respect for someone trying to rebuild from nothing than some chamber of commerce, yacht club douche.

What if there is a secret fifth option that is the son of a car dealer?

The thing is, it's only a ROI if any of those passengers converts to a buyer. The act of seeing an ad creates no value for the manufacturer unless they are converted to a buyer. What you are describing is a market that has the consumer (ad watcher) almost completely removed from the conversion of capital. Being forced to watch an ad, in this case, only benefits the airline by their receiving ad revenue. The passengers are nearly supflourous.

What's the ROI on ads anyway? I feel like ads are just a way to funnel money between corps. People who are forced to see ads are really not even the point anymore. This is like corporations subsidizing other corporations. Don't even matter that you buy that item being shown to you.

Smurtphön makers really have nothing new. They got their app store lock-in and went back to sleep. 😴😴😴

Been using it on a fedora workstation and a Debian server for 2 years and it has been stable and amazing for backups and regressions. So fast and easy to use. I use timeshift to handle organizing and scheduled backups.

FWIW, I set up these distros to separate my home directory from the OS, so backups aren't clogged with random files in my /home directory. I use Pika Backup to handle the /home directories to a separate backup site.

It's basically automated, reliable, and sooo fast. Love it.

You're probably gonna wanna pick up a pack of that Charmin as well.
