Maybe I'll make an IRV version later tonight!...

Which would of course assume that every candidate would be running as their own party.

basically what everyone else has been saying

i would put emphasis on not drinking caffeinated beverages before bed, though
cutting off caffeine entirely is generally a good idea

They're always higher on the google listings, and you're more likely to see a wikia than a wiki site for something. They're always more detailed oriented too, because they're always shaped by fanboys.
In my experience, wikis are far more detailed than wikias. I actually made a rant thread about it the other day. I guess it varies.

I don't think they're terribly different. It just seems that way because my ideas would require the system to be flipped over its head (as well as a change in how human beings conduct themselves), and your ideas are... Well, you might call them "realistic" or "feasible." I would call them something else.

I use two different adblocks.

You're not telling me to eat shit. You're telling the websites you use and enjoy to eat shit.

lol
Uh, yeah. If you use websites, you care about their existence to some extent. Obviously.

If you wanna be a cunt and say "fuck the Internet," go ahead, but at least say that.

AdBlock avoids that problem by denying an ad virus that opportunity in the first place.
That's what my script would do, except it would still generate revenue for the website. Unless you're saying that's impossible, which... I don't see how it would be, but I'm not a programmer.

Sorry, the efficacy of the pharmaceutical industry isn't constrained by your irrational hatred of profits. If it works, who cares? When it doesn't, fix it. Profit is a morally neutral phenomenon.
Profiting off of the welfare of other people simply cannot be "morally" neutral.

The profit should be "one person didn't suffer and die today." That's your payoff.
That should be satisfactory enough.

Then someone should come up with an advirusblocker. An adblocker that prevents malicious content from going through by blocking the ad, but still generates revenue for the website.
The problem with that is there are plenty of ways to obfuscate malicious code. A virus can be transmitted through so much as a .jpg file (and here's an example of one).
Nothing my idea wouldn't be able to stop.

But no, as it stands, there is NO justification for not providing content providers with ad revenue, if they indeed use ads.

what kind of arguement is "if other people are willing to waste their own time, why aren't you?"

kill yourself verb
If you're willing to waste your time, then you're not wasting your time.

Try using your fucking brain.
are you retarded?
Great argument.

Well the type of ad that appears on a video is determined by the uploader, so maybe you should just stay away from that particular channel rather than, I dunno, killing the whole internet.
I bet you haven't even donated to wikipedia you fucking hypocrites.
I have, actually.

No, I'm choosing not to cooperate with dumb advertisements. Just like how I don't use mediums that have models as ridiculous as TV.
And because of that, I don't think you should be allowed to access any of the websites that you block ads on.

They're pretty intrusive when they give you a computer virus.
Then someone should come up with an advirusblocker. An adblocker that prevents malicious content from going through by blocking the ad, but still generates revenue for the website.

maintain that you're different from those people
When have I ever said that I was different than anyone? In a non-joking fashion?

And by posting on these forums, I am advocating for my values.

There is a very clear distinction to be made between ads that, other than page loading time (even though they load after media usually), at no time prevent the consumption of media and ads that need to be circumvented through means of adblock before the media can be accessed.

One of these makes itself visible and lets interested customers learn more if they so desire, the other asserts itself as the gatekeeper of the video that you need to either listen to or circumvent in order to get to what you want.
There's also a clear distinction between thirty seconds and ten minutes. Most people who watch television in America sit through ten minutes of commercials when they watch their shows. And no one really gives a fuck.

and you're whining about thirty seconds

The alternative to non-intrusive ads is not paid subscription.
Most people consider ALL ads to be "intrusive".

I don't consider any ads to be intrusive.

Thirty seconds is NOTHING.
