![]() Time to take a break, away from all the unique opportunities on the ‘net. Invoice paid.Īnyway, I don’t know if it was because of the updates, but the script worked again. I make sure not to install McAfee (no pop-up this time, but a very tiny easy-to-miss checkbox that is set to ‘on’ by default) and almost 10 minutes later I am good to go. Because I don’t like online updates, I go to Adobe’s website and download the Flash installer for admins. Wait a sec… what is that little pop-up on top of the website? Can’t load Flash?! On a bank’s website?! Yes, it is unbelievable, but my bank uses Flash. I log in on my bank’s website and after half a minute I am still waiting for the website to load. Oops! Now I remember I should have paid an important invoice before doing all those other things. What about that annoying cookie bar? Yep, that too. I’d rather read the article about Mother Theresa… Pop-up! Pay now or… Wait a sec, can’t I just block that pop-up with AdBlock? Yes, I can. No, not that one about a page 3 girl who got tempted to travel to the Near East. Why?! Anyway, I’m 15 minutes later into my day and still haven’t done anything productive.Īlright, perhaps it is time to relax with an article from the Daily Telegraph. The result was a huge pop-up courtesy of the annoying SendGrid. So, I decide to update Firefox to the latest version, after which I restarted the browser again. Perhaps it got disabled due to security issues, I thought. So, when I started Firefox, I noticed that a script didn’t work correctly. Good that we have got a little zen-garden near the river side. Clicking somewhere suddenly removed the gifs. ![]() Close, close, close! I pressed the close button and was surprised by a bunch of gifs for which I have no need. Hence I was forced to move the window containing this text to my smaller primary window. The pop-up covering the Viber window deactivated that Viber window and immobilized it. Bean?! The Viber screen was displayed on my secondary screen at a large size. Now we have oversized emoticons! Send gifs! Wtf –who cares about bouncing pies and frames of Mr. Unfortunately, this takes me about 10 minutes, including a quick check for additional bloatware, which fortunately doesn’t seem to exist on my computer for now.Īt 9:15 I start Viber, which opens with a pop-up. Three minutes later, I change the sound level, uninstall the Acer bloatware permanently, click on the link in Skype to start Firefox, and start Viber. When I see this, I somehow remember I wanted to reduce the audio output level of my computer, but when I move the mouse to Window’s system tray, a pop-up tells me that some Asus bloat ware has been updated and keeps me from clicking on the sound icon. Meanwhile, my partner sends me a link to a website, which Skype displays in a little pop-up window in the bottom-right of my screen. So, I decide to have a quick look at a website on my other screen while Viber takes a minute or so to update itself. The pop-up is exactly in the middle of the screen, preventing me from reading the programming code I’m working on. While I’m working on a software project, Viber displays a small but annoying pop-up window on my screen. ![]() Sometimes it is an opportunity to eat something unique or to have another special experience. More often it is an opportunity to buy something at normal price while you think it is cheap. Often, these opportunities are a possibility to buy something at a very low price. A pop-up store is a temporary store, which offers one-time opportunities. Recently I was in a pop-up store in Belgium.
