By targetting, I'm talking about serving different ads to different users. Of course when an ad is created it targets a specific audience but thats not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about collecting user data for the purpose of targeting them with specific ads.

Ie- User is a young male, so show sports betting ads vs this is an ad for a vpn, serve it to everyone

    Thanks! It's an xconsole(1) that prints /dev/console. I configured xdm to draw it at the top of the screen when it xdm starts up. Its always on top when I first login and other windows can be drawn over it. I do auto group it with cwm tho, so if I am doing something and need to see it... I do a cwm hotkey combo which brings it back to the top.

    I was 429ing a little too liberally, so I upped my burst rate. This week, just like last week, most of my traffic was bots. But if a real user does come by, I want his or her experience to be pleasant enough.

    Automakers are responding with new and revived V8-powered trucks and performance cars, betting that Americans' appetite for big vehicles still has plenty of runway.

    If Americans truly prefer big vehicles, then repeal the Chicken Tax. If US auto mfgs are correct about the American preference for big vehicles is accurate, then the flood of smaller imports would sit unsold on the lot and profit would continue to grow.

    1 - Love to see it
