  • The only advertisements that still make any sense to me are those in magazines where the advertisement is relevant to the audience, and sometimes actually useful. They also make no sound, are a static image, and can be easily ignored.

    Aside from those, I cannot stand the annoyance of advertising, and sincerely hope it dies.

    I am not a fan of the design inconsistencies or the apparent desire within Microsoft to change the entire GUI style every 5 minutes, but the way Windows has turned into bloated AF adware/spyware has been the main force behind me moving to Linux. I would have been happy with Windows XP forever if they just kept updating DirectX etc.

    My other major annoyance is how Windows Update now forces itself on you, forces a reboot, then takes forever, and of course will randomly fail to apply the updates. Whereas with Linux, the updates just… work. And they don’t take half an hour to do nothing.

    I suppose, but someone like that would either be the kind of guy who would take any random drug you offered him, or, probably a guy who knows that a single estrogen pill wouldn’t do anything by itself anyway. But then what would be the point in him taking it except for a laugh to shock his friends etc? Either way they wouldn’t be doing it for the intended effect.
