Almost, but needs a few tweaks:

  • Content should be border-to-border in the 2000 panel.

  • Needs to be 3 lines of content in 2010 and only two lines of content in 2018.

  • 2018 needs a slide-over autoplay video on the bottom-left of the content space.

I used this scene in a cybersecurity training session. I knew it got the point across, when our resident ad-clicker asked me for advice to avoid that situation.

E: she asked for advice for her home computer, as she didn't understand that "at home and at work" meant "at home and at work with any device, not just work's"

No, this is just macOS when you boot up.

I have a friend who has their entire center 5th of their laptops screen just dead. they move windows around it to deal with it. I look at the way they're using their computer and like I can barely reach it at their window size but it's better than paying the $500 MacBook repair to them

I remember some video. It was a joke about IT remoting in to fix a computer. The icons on the desktop were shaped like a dick. Then it guy took a screenshot and was like I'm definitely sending this to HR as he sorted them alphabetically. Then the other dude was like "no put it back, infant find anything!" And the line that sticks with me, the IT guy says "there's no sort by dick".

In Firefox, on Linux, behind a VPN and firewall with ad blocker, I run 5 different privacy/ad blocking extensions. I keep hearing about adds, but not seeing them.

Supposedly Youtube now is getting more agressive on this? I wouldn't know. Haven't seen a Youtube notice about it yet.

But really, I dream of the day youtube is replaced by something else. Fracture Youtube into 1,000 pieces and scatter it into the wind.
