BBC News | TikTok launches £3.99 subscription for no ads in UK AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. TikTok announced a new £3.99‑a‑month subscription for UK users aged 18 and over that removes platform‑served ads, though sponsored creator posts marked “#ad” will still appear. The move follows similar ad‑free options rolled out by Instagram, Facebook, and Snapchat, and reflects a broader “consent‑or‑pay” shift in which users must either tolerate personalised advertising or pay for a privacy‑focused experience. TikTok’s UK managing director highlighted that the service gives people more control while still supporting British businesses, while experts warn the model could create a two‑tiered internet where only those who can afford it enjoy ad‑free, less‑tracked usage.

BBC News | TikTok launches £3.99 subscription for no ads in UK AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. TikTok announced that, beginning Monday, UK users aged 18 and over will be offered a £3.99‑a‑month “TikTok Ad‑Free” subscription that removes platform‑delivered ads from the For You feed, though creators’ sponsored posts (marked “#ad”) will still appear; the rollout follows a 2023 global test and mirrors similar ad‑free options introduced by Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat, with TikTok’s UK managing director saying the plan gives users more control while maintaining the app’s economic impact, while non‑subscribers will continue seeing personalized ads but will lose the ability to opt out—an approach that experts say reflects a broader “consent or pay” shift toward a two‑tiered internet where paying users gain extra privacy and control.

If focus is worth 30 IQ points, just imagine how many fewer IQ points you need to dedicate to the Diablo-Dusted Crispy Chicken Nuggets Combo, available for a limited time only at your local Taco Bell! #ad #promoted

A really annoying #ad I’ve seen multiple times on #YouTube Another sign that the human race is spiralling into idiocy & oblivion. A “Survival Game” where you seem to choose a female character by selecting her butt. #WTF

Bart De Strooper presented at the Copenhagen AD/PD-conference an excellent sketch of the three main inflection points in the pathophysiological evolution of Alzheimer's disease, https://www.alzforum.org/news/conference-coverage/big-picture-three-inflection-points-mark-amyloid-cascade My own transition from amyloid plagues to p-tau and tangles was retarded by a four years' anti-amyloid therapy in a clinical reaearch project during 2017-22 (aducanumab). Sadly, the most probable explanation for my rapidly worsening cognitive problems may indeed be the tau-tangles, which I somehow avoided earlier. I know there are experimental therapies around somewhere for those gremlins too, but sadly not within my own reach. With respect to my AD, I'm afraid, it's "too late, my friend". I encourage anybody with a slowly lethal disease to keep mentally in touch with it as long as you can. That's what we human beings were made for. 🤗 #alzheimer #ad #at #disease #medical #amyloid #tau #lethal #sairaus #alzForum #realism #humanity #reflection #thinking #dying #terminallyill #metacognition #tietoisuus #consciousness

If you're impacted by the #Hetzner price increase and just use unmanaged VPS's from them for your projects then it might be worth considering a migration elsewhere. I've been running https://superior-networks.com since 2013 and it should work out a fair bit cheaper than Hetzner especially if all you're doing is running some VPS's. We offer hosting in London and France right now with our new Redditch (UK) location becoming available in the next couple of months. We've got plenty of capacity ready to provision and it's instant setup :) #ad #promo
