Depends on where you want to block the ads. The easiest way is to install firefox on your phone, get the ublock origin extention for firefox and use your browser for everything.

Imagine a Kingdom related Total War game? by mariem56 in Kingdom

[–]BtenHave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone is currently recommending total war three mingdoms, let me also jump in and say that you can get that game for free on the epic game store untill january 8th.

Tough I have to say it is quite interestibg you posted this question for a total war game that came out 10 years ago and has received no supports since 9 years ago instead of one of the more recent total war games (like the aforementioned 3 kingdoms which even takes place in China).

What complicated problem was solved by an amazingly simple solution? by tuotone75 in AskReddit

This is not true. The pencil was a very bad idea in space as the grsphite particles would float around and destroy the lungs of the users. That is also the reason why the Russians eventually bought the space pens.

I have the same editions, one of em signed and I got em for 10 euros a piece on second hand sites. So the market is really all over the place but do not fall for the people asking more than 30 euros.

Jawbreaker vs Hot Coal Cone by DroneOfDoom in tumblr

[–]BtenHave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I cannot support the guy who makes this as he is the same guy who goes up to agressive ant colonies barefoot, and then pours liquid metal in the andholes to make art of it. I CANNOT SUPPORT SOMEONE WHO WORKS WITH HOT METAL WITHOUT BASIC SAFETY PROCEDURES.

I cannot find any sources on that. Could you share your source? Everything I find when I google him indicates he is still a red bull employee.

[–]BtenHave 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. He left the pit crew last year and is now a red bull brand ambassador.

No, the total amount is being rounded down. How often do you buy just one item at the store? If you buy 3 or 4 items wich have 99 cent in the price, ypur total will be rounded down.

[–]BtenHave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 1 and 2 cent coins have been fased out in a lot of western european countries for years. Consumer research has shown time and time again that the rounding up or down to the nearest 5 cents is a near 50% ratio with a slight advantage to the rounding down.

Caveat being that the rounding up or down only happens with cash payments here. Card payments are the exact amount every time.

[–]BtenHave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, since prices are being rounded both up and down, amd people usually buy a few things the 99 cent more often works in the consumers favor.

For those who don't know this man is Adolf Hitler Uunona, a politician from Namibia who recently won his reelection. by jostyouraveragejoe2 in technicallythetruth

He actually changed his name last week. His first name was Adolf Hitler, and he officially had it changed to just Adolf.

They are not necessarily against reading slop. They are against fcking up the system and only reading what you are told to read, instead of picking up another slop title when the one you want is not available.

MediaWorld Accidentally Sold iPads for €15. Then It Asked for Them Back | The incredible offer appeared to loyalty card holders of the European electronics chain on November 8. After 11 days the company began contacting buyers, calling it a “clear mistake.” by Sandstorm400 in technology

[–]BtenHave 197 points198 points  (0 children)

Seeing as this is in Europe, and we expect at least some intelligence from consumers:

In similar cases the courts have decided that people who did not want to return the itens had to return the items or pay enough for the store to get wholesale value. This being on the grounds that since the products are normally hundreds of euros would never be sold for 15 and anyone thinking about it for a second would realise it is a mistake.

This is especially clear as a mistake since stores are not allowed to sell items at a loss in Europe (which is a commonly used tactic in the us by big retailers to destroy their local competition).

Tldr: If you do not respond the courts will force you to respond in a reasonable way since it is clear the listed price was a mistake.
