The ads on this site on mobile are horreeeeeeeendous
Firefox for Android plus ublock origin. I think there’s an ad block on iPhones but you have to buy it.
Thank you! I use DuckDuckGo on Android because I like it’s simplicity but maybe I’ll change to Firefox someday (I use Firefox on my PC)
One Blocker on iOS is pretty decent
Can confirm
What ads?
On a completely unrelated note, what bozo would browse the web without an ad blocker?
Removed by mod
I have ad blockers on my PC, but haven’t gotten around to putting any on my phone. It’s rarely a problem as I don’t visit many sites on my phone. But I should probably add one. I was just pointing out an experience I had. I think you were a bit rude with your comment. Please try to be more kind in the future; that’s what helps communities like Lemmy thrive
Lemmy Connect preview with Chrome even if you have Firefox installed. You can click Open External but for me once the ads become obtrusive, I’m already over it and stop reading. Now I don’t click those sites at all but come to the comments to see if a summary bot posted
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Joining stars, planets, nebulas, and galaxies as a target for skywatchers is now a surprisingly bright tool bag floating through the space around Earth.
The bag of tools gave NASA astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O’Hara the slip on Nov. 2, 2023, as they were conducting a spacewalk outside of the International Space Station (ISS).
European Space Agency (ESA) reserve astronaut Meganne Christian shared footage of the moment the tool bag escaped the grasp of Moghbeli on her X account.
Also on X, Harvard Center for Astrophysics (CfA) astronomer Jonathan McDowell revealed that the bag is circling Earth in a roughly 258 by 258 mile (415 by 416 kilometer) orbit.
In 2008, as NASA astronaut Heide Stefanyshyn-Piper attempted to repair a jammed gear on an ISS solar panel, she lost her grip on another tool bag with then circled our planet.
Late NASA astronaut Piers Sellers lost his grip on the kitchen implement as he was using it to spread heat-shield repair slime during the space shuttle Discovery’s flight STS-121 in 2006.

repair slime
I find it oddly comforting that even for astronauts in space, many repairs still consist of smearing various types of schmoo on things.
The only person I know of who really uses the word schmoo is Linus. Are you Linus?
I’ll bet a 10mm socket was in there. If so, it doomed the rest of the bag and NASA should have known better.
