Ad-block is the shit, been using it for years and years…  it's the internet without ads.

And it has been cloudy and raining for over a week now, so just waiting on the sun to come out and say hi.

Found out today that the Director of my department put a call in to the parking guys on my behalf.  He basically bumped me up to the top of a 1-2 year waiting list for a parking garage spot, haha.  Giddiup.

Changed energy supplier after my county's yearly "Who can supply the cheapest and cleanest energy for a year, PUNKS!.." auction resulted in a different supplier winning…

Was a bit scared my final bill from my previous energy supplier 'd be high, seeing as I had to pay for December through March (basically, winter)... Nope: am being refunded a cool 92 €...

So, in short: I was refunded 500 € of my total energy bill of 1320 € this year (heating and electricity, 2 persons, with my brother's girlfriend spending most weekends with us)... And the calculations of the new supplier, based on what I consumed last year, show I'd have spent 180 € less with the new contract...

I think I have this economical living pretty much down to a t...  ::)

AdBlock Pro is so Good. Forever I've allowed the ads to be viewed, SuFu's latest few months of advertising has just been nuts, so installed it. ALL webpages basically load so much faster, and cleaner. I can't believe I've known about this for 10 or so years and been okay not running it, thinking of the web-site's revenue…MY GOD It's like a new internets.

I use Adblock Pro - is there a difference?..

Maybe we need an Extensions thread… I use these'uns... Granted: don't need Hola anymore since kickass.to has a steady connection...

[Snowy]

(Updated my post, that was the one ;)) and good thread idea!

i don't know about adblockers. like once in awhile i like to see ads and sometimes it's annoying. but trying it out, i was so not used to the ads not being there..

[tmg]

@Snowy is that Adblock Pro compatible with Safari? Tempted to get if so as I'm getting a bit hacked off with the number of ads on some sites

[Snowy]

@tmg not sure mate. I use Chrome.
