    Yeah, if your reaction to “website wants permission to push notifications to your device” isn’t some mix between mirth and revulsion, I don’t fundamentally understand you.

      It’s like people who actually watch commercials. If you don’t skip/look away/mute/otherwise attempt to ignore commercials, there are massive differences between us. I even had an ex who thought targeted ads were a good thing, and he would voluntarily fill out the marketing questions that streaming services asked in lieu of commercial breaks. I just … I can’t imagine wanting that.

        Why pay for the fucking service, only to be served ads? It’s cable TV all over again. I hate it so much.

        I have no idea where to find it anymore, but I once got an advertisement for some industrial machine that I think used lasers or something, but more importantly it sounded incredibly fake but was actually real. It was beautiful and made no sense to show me but I love it.
