@maues-reblogs2
Oh hey, welcome to Maue's Reblogs 2.0! I decided it was high time I had a separate storage unit for cool posts that didn't originate with me so the art blog can breathe a bit. I'll still reblog there occasionally, just not as much. And when the reblog has been there for a month or so, I'll either delete it or move it here.
Why "2.0"? Because I had a dedicated "reblog-blog" years ago and deleted it. Time for take two!
Enjoy!

most of the time it's like whatever your clapback at that uber rich fascist on Twitter isnt gonna matter. he'll never read it but i do genuinely think elon reads all of his twitter replies because he's just that pathetic
Remember when Xbox was going to basically ban used games for the xbox one, and Playstation made fun of them with that video titled "how to share games on Playstation" and it was just one guy handing another a game disk? And now Playstation is getting rid of physical disks entirely
DuckDuckGo's Browser to Block YouTube Ads by Default
DuckDuckGo now blocks most video ads, including on YouTube! Try it on desktop or mobile today.
TL;DR:
duckduckgo has joined Brave in blocking ads on YouTube by default
It seems that it’ll be also blocking video ads in general but YouTube is the focus
iOS, Windows, and Mac is on by default, but android is gonna be default later, with users able to turn it on in settings
It’s based filter list from Ublock origin, which is open source
full thing
“The browser is using filters from the uBlock Origin ad blocker to detect and block commercials on YouTube's website. “
DuckDuckGo says that
“DuckDuckGo now blocks most video ads! Use our free browser to get the full YouTube experience, minus the ads.
YouTube Ad Blocking joins our powerful lineup of browsing protections that manage cookie pop-ups, protect you from invasive tracker-based web ads, and more.
YouTube Ad Blocking is already on by default for most iPhone, Windows, and Mac users!
It will be auto-enabled for Android soon, but users can opt in via browser Settings in the meantime.”
It seems that it will include video ADS even beyond YouTube, but YouTube is the main focus here
“This new feature blocks ads that run before and during your videos, letting you watch YouTube without the interruptions.”
They’ve been protecting their users from ADs for a while now
“We block tracker-powered web ads before they can load.
We have Global Privacy Control enabled by default, expressing your opt-out rights by telling websites not to sell or share your personal information.
We can even manage cookie pop-ups behind the scenes, so you don’t have to deal with the distraction.”
They are joining the Brave browser that also turn off ads by default
how to turn on
It’s on by default if your on, default for iOS, Windows, and Mac
For android, it’ll be on by default soon, but you just need to go into settings and than ad blocking
You can do this for all devices to turn it off and and on
“Please note: if you’re on a mobile device, links to YouTube videos may open in the YouTube app by default.
To enjoy DuckDuckGo’s YouTube Ad Blocking, you need to open the YouTube website in the DuckDuckGo browser. It won’t work in the YouTube app.”
how it works
Their using a community driven filter list from Ublock Origin
This is open source and updated regularly
“As with most ad blockers, using our ad blocker can lead to some additional buffering times. But once your video loads, you won't be interrupted with ads.”
The browser is using filters from the uBlock Origin ad blocker to detect and block commercials on YouTube's website. But there is a trade-of

You know what? Fuck it I'm adding more context. Sesame Street has talked about the topic of death more than once and it's done with such gentle carefulness without watering down or censoring the heaviness of the situations. It treats heavy subject matter with respect and dignity and has been for DECADES. From the early 1980s:
To 2025:
Hell, they even cover the devastating heaviness of MASS SHOOTINGS without censoring or watering anything down.
They've been doing this for YEARS, and it's ALWAYS handled with dignity, respect, seriousness, understanding, and love.
Whenever I see people censoring words because it "might offend" someone or the big ad companies that are currently trying to run everything? I just want to say to them: "What? Is Sesame Street too mature for you?" Because really...what the hell are we doing.
Mister Roger's Neighborhood also covered difficult topics with respect, age-appropriately, and without pulling a single punch. It's crazy that we've worked ourselves up so much that we're self-censoring like it's always been the norm.
This clip is from 1968 and discussed assassination after Bobby Kennedy died.
I'm not sure when this clip originally aired, but it was likely sometime in the 1980s. They talk about murder and, incredibly by today's standards, what sort of emotions (anger, fear, loneliness) might drive someone to hurt or kill other people + how we can manage our own difficult or painful feelings.
The ability to talk about hard and awful things
is the ability to process these things.
taking away the words for bad things
means when they HAPPEN- and bad things will still happen around us-
WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT THEM without the WORDS.
When the word is accurate, USE THE WORD. Say Death. Say Murder. Say Rape. Say Prison, say Riots, say War, Say Famines and Disease. Say Bigotry. Say Hate crime. Say Racism. Say Fascism. Say Abuse. Say Hurt. Say Pain. Say Grief. Say Fear.
We must not lose the Truth of what a word means.
All of these things need to be talked about. Do Not GIVE UP YOUR WORDS.
Hey, I need to tell you something

let’s be real the pressure to use AI as an adult is exactly what they said the pressure the do drugs as a teenager would be like but the people that told us that caved immediately for the AI and definitely did not just say no
