Are you saying that you are Peed of by too many ads? I never see any but we do run an advertising blocker and maybe any ads are not posted on international sites.
That said, we cop an advertisement for Copilot every time we fire up the computer, It's supposed to be AI but it's too dumb to cotton on that we always shut it down straight away - clearly we don't want it!! Is it any wonder that Microsoft has such a bad reputation around here.

Ads are how they keep this site going, free for us to use, would we pay 19.95 a month to be on this site ? Happy Flag Day !

I agree, once logged in you do not see any ads.

There are likely a fair amount of folks that only check this site for information but don't join to be a regular contributor. They get the adds.
