Oh.
… it complains about an AD blocker.
What’s an AD blocker?
I presume they mean an advertisement blocker, or Ad Blocker.
The word “advertisement” is not abbreviated as capital-A-capital-D, but just ad. or Ad. or Ad or ad.
Ad Blockers are the kind of program that permits us to filter our own views of the web, like tearing out advertising pages from our own newspaper or magazines once they arrive at our door, and the kind of thing that attention-challenged folks and others use to tame interfering and distracting noise on web pages, so they can participate in the world wide web without being triggered and distracted by anything they are not intentionally seeking, those with epilepsy, various manifestations of autism syndromes, Aspergers, and so on – yeah, some web sites do not understand that we are not going to respond to advertising anyway, so the web sites even lose referrals by blocking access to populations with comparative disabilities, even screen readers for the blind, how sad that those web sites are discriminating, and exclusionary, when all the web site has to do is participate with visitors with equivalent consideration, and promote their advertisers using neat, clean relevant, intentional text, in-line with the web site’s basic offering, see [ Quora. com ] for examples of inline text promotion, very profitable.
Are they also confusedly blocking those of us who change fonts and colors, those of us who decline to have active programming like Java, Shockwave, and Silverlight, as we read supposedly static web information?
SOS, GOTD, BDJ, and [ WinningPC. com ] are useful and functional, even with all of the browser-tuning I mention.
And of course, [ MagnetDL. com ] coupled with [ BitTorrent. com ] and [ VirusTotal. com ] – how else are folks going to get opensource distribution when their Internet connection is brief, slow, and intermittent at best?
And not just around the world unimproved remote locations, think of California US with its drilling blackouts due to fires, and the march of climate change bring such challenges to us all eventually.
Without trickling restartable torrents, we’re all going to be disconnected.
Think of the lowest common denominator, folks, I leave Linux distribution torrents and Libre Office torrents running 24 / 7 just to support those around the world with diminished resources, and I may set up a server just to re-torrent public domain intellectual property of every type, books, music, movies, daily news aggregation – how else are we going to unite the world as inclusive and egalitarian?
On topic, I use Adobe Acrobat Pro to [ Create PDF ] [ From Web Page ], and Soft-Xpansion Perfect PDF 9 Pro has no equivalent feature, strike- … I dunno, how many strikes is it now, way more than strike-three.
By the way, Adobe Acrobat Pro creates a PDF page from [ SoftwareOnSale. com ] for off-line viewing just fine, [ AppNee. com ] just offers “… Please disable your adblock and script blockers to view this page …”, their loss.
Soft-Xpansion’s loss, too, in not offering … I dunno, should I rip out a licensed Soft-Xpansion Perfect PDF 9 Editor just to install a trial version of Soft-Expansion Perfect PDF 10 Premium to see if it offers the missing competitive features and benefits of even 10-year previous Adobe Acrobat Pro?
Should I, Soft-Xpansion – what say?
So those are some one-trick-pony features, such as the ability to create a PDF by browsing a web site, and as I click on links in the PDF document under construction, I can add page after page to the current PDF, a wonderful resource for off-line reading, especially of blah-blah-blogs and technical reference presentations.
These are just tools, folks, not some precious holy magic that requires contortionary licensing.
And just as we use a screwdriver to open a can of paint, even though the instructions for using a screwdriver explain rotating screws in and out, not opening cans of paint,
… all of our software tools can be used for something way beyond the imagination of the original programmer,
… or maybe we’re just finding out what the original programmers used their own programs for,
… but their marketing department slapped a whole different presentation on top,
… maybe some programmers working on Adobe Acrobat Pro had a love affair with [ BlueSquirrel. com ] Grab-A-Site ( remember that ? ), and saw that it was equivalently easy to do that to build a PDF, to collect a web page, an entire web site, an entire browsing experience across any number of web pages, as a PDF, and a PDF is actually a better resource in some ways for off-line viewing.
Soft-Xpansion’s loss.
Has anyone yet got an Soft-Expansion advantage to share?
