Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

MODERATORS
Either by linking to malware so you get infected if you click the ad, or by containing malware directly. Ads can contain code, making them almost like small applications that run when loaded.
Which browser in 2023 would dare allow that to run?
The code is JavaScript--an integral part of displaying modern websites. Not since the days before 2001 and very simple browsers like Netscape Navigator 3 and Internet Explorer 3 that didn't yet have javascript. Today that is what adblock is doing - it stops loading untrustworthy or unwanted bits and pieces of code while still giving the end-user (most of) the javascripts they need. Instead of the default action, "ok, gimme the whole webpage code, as-is". That last sentence, that's Chrome. I can explain it some more further. But that's the jist of it.
