  1. Strictly my opinion, but I kind of *fail* to understand why "upgrade path" is even a topic of discussion. To ME, if "upgrade path" is that vital here at MSFN, then any-and-all XP users that are running POSReady2009 would be *banned* for publicly admitting violation of terms on their XP. Sorry, it really all boils down to that as far as *I* am concerned.
  2. Well, there "is" political meaning behind it whether intended or not, lol. I see "both sides" of that unintended political meaning. Very strange job market, kind of a "once in a lifetime" type of job market. But definitely depends on your locale and type of career.
  3. Actually, I had to look it up. I don't watch "cartoons" (ie, "animated tv series") so your reference was completely foreign. Just seemed "best" to comment on that aspect of your post as opposed to the political nature of the "no job crisis" comment.
  4. I wondered why it said "we", lol Congrats on finding a fix! I honestly was trying to find a hosts-file-only type of fix, but every time I fire up a UXP browser these days has me wanting to pinch my nipples with battery cables. Much LESS pain than the "experience" UXP provides. I really don't know how you guys (without Android backups) "survive" in this day and age.

  6. Browsing without uBO: sitting in a damp medieval dungeon no food or drink for three days ankles chained to the legs of the chair wrists duct-taped to the arms of the chair battery cables attached to my nipples, 100-volt electroshocks overy 10 seconds Browsing with uBO: sitting in a hammock at the beach on a cool evening with a slight breeze while enjoying the sunset
  7. On second thought... We will always have "naysayers" that will NEVER use uBO. They will *always* run their browser their way, without uBO, no matter how often we suggest to them that they need to "let go" of the old-school thinking. No skin off our backs, it is their computer, let them "suffer" by sticking to their not wanting to use uBO, be it modified or as-is, old or new.
  8. I guess I agree and disagree both at the same time. I use uBO. Can't live without it! And that goes for XP or 10 or anything in between. And that goes for slow-as-sh#t UXP to fast-as-H#ll way better options available to those that "let go" of XP. BUT... I *hate* uBO in its current evolution. I prefer the older versions. But I *hate* them also. I **LOVE** the MODIFIED version that I can not live without. I see the side of anybody that doesn't want to use the current evolution !!! And I don't expect them to be able to MODIFY it into something that the DO like. We can't "force" them to use it if they have their own reasons, legit or not, to NOT use it. BUT... If they could at least tell us WHY, maybe we could "teach them" how to modify what they don't like 'out of it' and create something that they DO like.
  9. And you don't need something "heavy" like uBO to block. Just a lightweight custom userstyle does the trick.
  10. 1) posting on MSFN today is an outright NIGHTMARE 2) I spoke too soon, I logged back in and NOW (but not earlier) there is an EHARMONY ad at the very top and a banner on the right that rotates between a few different ads. 3) but even if I could paste a screencap, I kinda CAN'T because the eHarmony ad reveals my city (I wouldn't say I "hide", per se, but I prefer to limit my location to "midwest USA", not to my CITY).
  11. Yes. New Moon. XP x86 VM (being a VM should *make no difference* in this discussion). I can no longer "paste" screencaps into the post editor (this has been mentioned in other threads, directed at @xp... @trip... @dave-h).
  12. His screencap of it working is in 64bit XP. Your screencap of it failing is in 32bit XP (I think).
  13. I created a new Yahoo account (via a throwaway Gmail account and not via a phone number). Without any extensions whatsoever, I'm not seeing any ads. None. Can you screencap the ads on your end? Why would you have ads but none for me with ZERO extensions installed?
  14. Nothing is "unblockable". Just need to use more creative methods. I would love to assist further, but my three "throwaway" Yahoo accounts no longer allow me to log in and trying to create a new Yahoo account is asking for a phone number (which I will not provide).
