It's Ctrl+ù on French keyboards. Maybe they customized it for Portuguese keyboards too.

Cheers for the beautiful website that doesn't require javascript.

And reversely uBlock Origin doesn't block ads on Twitter and Tumblr, which makes it much less useful to me than Adblock Plus.

For this kind of anti-adblocking that loads the full page before hiding it, we can just display and read the full page with the "article view" feature. I use the Clearly extention for that because Firefox's native version is rarely available.

But yes, it's a very bad business practice to give the middle finger to those interested in your products, even if you can't monetize their presence yet.

The main point is that lithium is hard to get for European companies. Sodium is abundant in saltwater, which is good for European companies and good for a more massive use of batteries (electric cars and home storage).

Yes, as an example of excessive advertising, the biggest concert hall in Paris, which people just call Bercy because it's the landmark building of this neighbourhood, has been renovated and is now named Accorhotel Arena. Stupid marketing people believe they can be perceived as the benevolent pygmalions of arts and sports but they so obiously want free advertising whenever journalists will refer to this place. It only makes me want to boycott their hotels.

It's the boycott of a business model, more than of the companies who use it.

Too late, I've just unsubscribed. This issue was a last-drop motivator, the primary reason being that I don't like paying artists I don't listen while the lesser known artists I do listen only get a few cents if anything of my monthly fee.

10 episodes per season is indeed too little for a show. Especially when you have like 20 main characters.

Twitter's website has so many annoyances it is no more a pleasure for me to check it. For example:

- Photos are very badly cropped and clicking on the tweet does not diplay them full size anymore. We have to click a second time on the photo.

- Photos are now displayed above the text which somehow makes the bad cropping even worse.

- People who want to post photos have all moved to Instagram anyway. Twitter is an actor, not a victim, of this move. They seem to consider photos as a feature for advertisers, not for users.

- Embedded tweets (retweets with a comment) don't have functionnal links. Clicking them opens the tweet's page in a way that ruins the auto-scrolling of the main stream. The trick against that is to right-click on the embedding tweet's time and open the link in a new tab. WTF, designers?

- If one wants to post a longer text, Twitter leads them to create an account elsewhere. Twitter could easily just display the title and hide the longer text behind a click. WTF, strategists?

Twitter definitely needs a new leadership.

I think it's no one and for no reason. We're living in a hierarchist society (as opposed to an anarchist one). This hierarchy is naturally establishing itself in the greatest invention of our time: the internet and our computers.

Considering Microsoft's efforts on Cortana and AI in general, I don't see them closing Bing.
