    Very good! Now let's try one more that I forgot: XOR

    I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

      Hi, I think most members would agree that the popping up of adds left right and centre when you are about to read a page, are one of the most annoying features of the Internet. I try to block all, and, would prefer to pay premium access for an advertising free internet. I get notified by email when I contribute to a discussion board I learned to my surprise that clicking on a link in that email to get to the appropriate response in the board is conditional to not having an Add blocker. I am frankly Disgusted! I am also sending this mail directly to Chris Mauder! Bram.

      Disable ad-blocker, and update your host-file. I don't accept anything from other domains than the visiting one; it is a security-risc to download and display html+js from an unknown party.

        ...and stop calling him "Shirley".

        - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

          I'm confused. It sounds like you are complaining that a free site has ads on it.

            How do you manage to walk when your knickers are in such a twist? Given the value I get from CP, I am more than happy to help fund it through advertising. It would be churlish of me not to. Or, to put it another way, do you think that CP should go bust because they run out of money?

              Hmm. Thinking about it, I'd happily pay a subscription to CP -- and I wouldn't demand that they turn the ads off.

              I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

                  He's actually complaining that the ads get in the way of viewing the site based on notifications. An alternative solution is to set your profile to not notify you of things that happen on the site.

                      Possibly no balls to get in the way.
