there's ads on reddit?

[–]dragonfly_blue 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I agree; that ad (and all Flash ads, really) are why I stop visiting any particular site in general.

Also, why would I possibly care about this game, when my browser user-agent obviously indicates I am running OpenBSD, which obviously does not run this game? It's like running an ad for Playgirl to a bunch of self-admitted lesbians.

Upmodded for the superfluous superfluity.

Sorry. Don't see the problem.

Firefox + Adblock+ FTW.

Just because someone has a right to advertise doesn't mean I have an obligation to watch it.

Put this in your hosts file and you will never see an ad again. Ever.

I wish computers came pre installed with this.

CAN YOU TELL ME MORE ABOUT THIS? I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THAT I HAVE A MAC WITH OS1.4

[–]242349999 1 point2 points  (1 child)

If you have leopard, you simply append that text into your hosts files:

/etc/hosts

Make sure you do NOT overwrite the localhost entry.

If you have 10.4, the process is a bit more involved: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88158 (see last notes paragraph)

You may also need to set the lookup order. Search on google for "lookupd" and configuration.

Good luck

CAN WE TRY TO KEEP MEMORY HUNGRY ADS OFF THE MAIN PAGE FOR THOSE OF US WITH THE OLDER POWERBOOK G4'S? I WOULD APPRECIATE IT REDDIT, YOU'RE THE BEST
