i'm the powers upply placed under the motherboard where there's no real air circulation and no real way to expel thermal heat

the intake is on the bottom of the case and the outtake is out the back. alternatively you could mount it intake up if you wanted to suck hot air down off the mobo.

Remember 10 years ago when ad blocking was considered a wild and dangerous game, hell even downloading something that wasn't IE was considered out there. I remember getting banned from some forum, I think it was arstechnica maybe? for linking to an adblocker in 2005. Those were the days, every ad was in flash and had sound and pegged your bandwidth for 3 seconds.

I don't remember that.

Conventional advertising is decaying. All those fancy campaign creatives and poo poo are gonna get replaced eventually by white kids doing stupid poo poo on social media and getting paid more money than you will ever see to have a given product in shot whilst doing so.

I think it's hilarious how much money companies spend on social media in particular. If you want 'engagement' hire a goddam comedian, not 10 'social media gurus' with <1000 followers between them.

this is already how advertising is. there haven't been creative ads for decades.

out of curiosity do advertising execs' spreadsheets take into account the people who become so infuriated by an ad playing dozens of times in the course of an episode of tv, or by the ad's message not agreeing with them, that they come to loathe the company and swear to never patronize them? or do they just reject reality completely

like, i will never purchase a lysol-brand product in my life thanks entirely to my disgust with their television advertising messages

they don't care cause you aren't the target market. Toyota is another great example. they have the most bullshit patronizing ads in history but they're for their boomer target audience.

Its truly amazing how bad this is and shows how much of a liability your marketing department is in most cases.

it sounds like they had some poorly conceived pro-diversity schlock where women keep peeling off their skin to show other women cause ~*we're all the same*~ and then someone had to stick it into a limited ad network and picked the worst frame combo possible.

i'm angry at this still image shown without context!!!!

the problem is it was shown w/out that context as an ad so the only thing you see is "black women turn into white women when they get clean w/ dove soap"

our marketing people settled on a lower case word for our logo so I just take the vector and stick it in an appropriate sized rectangle and they don't care as long as the text looks ok. also I don't usually tell them I'm doing it which helps alot
