What are you tired of helping and educating people about because you know they'll just be ignorant anyway? (kbin.melroy.org)

When it comes to dealing with advertisements when they're surfing on their browsers. I've just learned recently about how Google has or is killing UBlock Origin on the Chrome browser as well as all Chromium based browsers too.

We've heard for years about people complaining, bitching, whining and vice versa about how they keep seeing ads. And those trying to help them, keep wasting time to tell these people that they're surfing without extensions. Whether it'd be on Chrome or Firefox or another browser.

By this point, I've long stopped being that helper because if you cared at all about the advertisements you see, you would've long had gotten on the wagon of getting adblockers by now. You bring this onto yourself.

Even in mild cases of COVID in healthy younger people it has cognitive impacts. What you believe is false.

I’m aware of long covid risks. My belief to which you are replying is that exposure to viruses is important to continue making antibodies. The study indicates a 25% risk of cognitive impacts from mild COVID cases. I’m not alarmed by that number, and I’m not seeing how it should change my belief about immune system health.

By the year 2100, ambient CO2 will reach 1000 ppm (1 ppt), which is associated with a 10-15% decline in cognition. In many indoor spaces, CO2 levels are much higher than this. I actually got CO2 up to 1800 ppm just driving my car with the air turned off. Anybody who works indoors in a building is at risk of impaired cognition.
