Wow i feel terrible, depriving my fave site of revenue! That thing works amazingly well, now its whitelisted and im clicking on the banners, buying the humble bundle, to make up for lost time! Im going to go around doing that for all my fave sites, thanks for the tip.



Also, if you order something from Amazon (not sure which country you're in but there are links to Amazon US, Canada, UK, and Germany) you can click on the link on Blues homepage to get to Amazon, put the stuff in your cart, and order, and Blue will get a kickback from Amazon. It's an additional way to help fund the site, which Blue basically does by himself, 365 days a year (although he does have a developer he hires from time to time to help out with coding).

And yeah, it's my favorite site too. Which might be obvious given how much I post. Blush

Genuinely curious, theres no banners, paywalls, contributions or any kind of advertising I can see.

Blue, AKA Stephen Heaslip, is the a trust fund recipient of the wealth of Heaslip Engineering which made its fortune in aluminium and copper smelting. He's worth millions of dollars, so he does this site as a labor of love.

Seriously, dude. Whitelist Blues on your adblocker so Blue can make some money. He's got a wife and dogs to feed.
