making frequent and subtle changes in site layout can increase ad revenue; making the site intentionally disorganized makes user

s more prone to viewing and absorbing advertisements.

Google and facebook have been doing this for years now. The layout of the site is changed every couple weeks, and these changes aren't made in effort to improve the site, but are almost always just tossing up the specific manner in which advertisements are presented to make them harder to block out.
Youtube has gotten really bad; right now its impossible to tell if what you're about to click on will be content or ad - they've fused the two together.

And by keeping the user confused about the layout of the site, they're more likely to click on ads. Intentionally disorganized and innavigable layouts cause a person accept what the site shows them on the front page. Unless you search for specific videos, everything linking off the frontpage is youtube trying to control what you watch and force advertisements on you.

Glad the television mentality managed to wiggle and pry its way into the internet. Why can't we just go back to early 2000s-esque ads when they thought that infecting people's computers with malicious software to annoy the shit out of them was an effective approach to advertising? Back when they kept the ads simple, just the essentials: penis enlargement, 'free ___' pyramid schemes, and 'free trials' with hidden fees of '$200/month after the first free month ends, good luck trying to cancel" - Those are the core 3; the essential food-groups of internet advertising

LISA

sounds sexual

no

the whole touch fad better die out sometime soon the whole 'trying to operate a computer by slappin your fat fingers across the screen' thing needs to end.
they make for nice phones, and its nice to be able to use them while laying down, in a car, take it out in public quick to check something, etc..
As for tablets, anything worth doing is worth doing at a desktop computer.
1. if a piece of hardware breaks on a desktop computer, you can order a new part and fix it yourself. On a touchscreen phone or tablet, when a piece of hardware breaks the several hundred dollar device just became a several hundred dollar coaster.
2. Put any operating system you want on it
3. Get to have actual control over the computer; it will do whatever you tell it to do without having to mess around trying to root the manufacturer's restrictions and whatever the fuck else.
4. The 'app store' for a desktop computer is called 'this shit has been freeware for fucking years' - and every 'app' is free with no built in advertisements.

also mouse and keyboard will always be superior

I cant put my desktop in my pocket and hide in a closet jerking off to porn so no

I don't have any problems with touch screens maybe you should eat less snickers
