I'm one of the dozen people that bought premium to not have to deal with it. I'm just patiently waiting for alternatives to become more viable so I can jump ship entirely. YouTube is the last remaining Google service I still use.

The FAA might have something to say about it.

I used it on a laptop for a while. Pretty impressive just how lightweight it is, but a bit of a grind to initially get everything working as expected. Overall, I'm a big fan.

We still use on-prem Exchange with Microsoft Office at work, and it's really becoming a problem. Microsoft already auto adds shortcuts for 365 (which we don't use and doesn't work with our setup), and the "Mail" app (which also doesn't work with out setup), and now I have to explain to people to use the regularly titled Outlook icon and not the "Outlook (new)" icon (which again, won't work with our setup).

See, this is the problem. You either risk getting a ticket by keeping up with the 15mph+ people in the left, or you deal with grandma and grandpa doing 10mph under on the right. So a lot of us end up having to leapfrog back and forth. I just want to maintain my socially and legally acceptable 4mph over.

I agree. I've found that a lot of the subjects I hated in school, I ended up finding an interest in later in life on my own. I now think it had a lot more to do with the method of teaching than the material itself.

"Setup for an organization" and "domain-join instead", but you aren't forced to domain-join later. At least that's how it's done on Windows Pro. No idea about Home/Standard/whatever it's called now.

You mean we'd be in control of the means of production? That's an interesting idea. We should come up with a recognizable symbol for this new concept. Something simple, like two silhouettes of tools, maybe crossed.

Guessing you mean in your post-2001 books, but this comment has me imagining a Black Mirror style thing where there's this future prediction in everyone's school books that all the teachers refuse to talk about.

I before E, except after C.

That only allows DNS-based blocking of domains, which isn't going to be nearly as effective. A lot of modern ads are served up from the same domain that you're visiting. Browser-based ad-blocker extensions are in a position to block domains, URLs, and specific parts of the HTML DOM itself. This is going to sound rude, and I'm sorry in advance, but when people bring up pi hole, I assume they aren't very knowledgeable about how things work.

I started doing this a few years ago, and it made a world of difference. I dislike the whole process of using regular floss; having to wrap it around my fingers and then try to maneuver it around inside my mouth, all while staring at myself in the bathroom mirror is a mental burden. Now I just keep a bag of floss picks in easily reachable places where I tend to spend the most time, and I've ended up with really good flossing habits.
