You could always turn Adblock back on. I think it's fair for them to make some money to support the site.

- jrockway 17y agoIt's OK to charge people money to answer questions for free? OK, sure...
- confuzatron 17y agoHuh? The advertisers are the ones paying money to place ads, they aren't the ones answering questions.
- jrockway 17y agoI am the one answering questions. I have to pay (i.e., look at ads) for the privilege of doing so. Then, my work is used to lure in eyeballs that look at the ads. Just sayin', it's not sustainable. Why shouldn't I get a cut? What do I get for continuing to answer questions on Stack Overflow (instead of on free mailing lists, or on my own blog, or in a magazine)? Karma is nice and all, but the only reason I bother writing here is because there are no ads.
- confuzatron 17y agoOh come on. You're not 'paying money' because a bitmap is rendered in part of an html page. Get over yourself.
- jrockway 17y agoWhy show me said bitmap then?
- confuzatron 17y agoYou've lost me. At what point are you charged money?
