Samsung Internet may lose the ability to block ads on YouTube.
Samsung Internet Browser supports many third-party ad blockers, including AdBlock and AdBlock Plus. Extensions available for popular browsers such as Google Chrome. However, those who use Samsung Internet ad blockers to watch YouTube videos without ads might be disappointed.. Indeed, Google is working on a method to prohibit the use of ad blockers on YouTube.
Samsung Internet victim of ad blocker detection on YouTube
A Reddit user revealed that while watching videos on YouTube, he encountered a pop-up asking him to allow YouTube ads in his ad blocker settings or buy YouTube Premium. Google has confirmed that this is an ongoing experiment. This detection seems to be at a very preliminary stage. On the other hand, there is no doubt that Google will one day make ad blocking much more difficult..
It is important to point out that many ad blockers, including those available for Samsung Internet, already have YouTube as an exception and do not block ads on the site. However, once Google expands ad blocker throttling globally, all popular ad blockers may be affected.. Nevertheless, we assume that some ad blockers will eventually find a way around YouTube’s detection.
For the moment, the detection of ad blockers still seems far from being deployed for everyone. So you should have more time to enjoy an ad-free video experience.. Especially without having to pay for a YouTube Premium subscription.
Give gifts to followers on Twitch It is a common practice among most people, especially on special dates such as birthdays, channel anniversaries or during Christmas. However, sometimes things don’t go as planned and, by mistake, you can find yourself owing millions of euros.
This is precisely what happened to the streamer Vedal987, also known for being behind the popular AI-controlled V-Tuber, Neurosama. As part of a subathon, Vedal wanted to send his viewers five codes that would provide a 100% discount on a plush that normally sells for $30. However, the streamer was unaware that these codes were not single-use and could be used unlimited.
As expected, the audience took advantage of the mistake and began buying stuffed animals in large quantities. After a few minutes, Vedal realized that around five million stuffed animals in totalaccumulating an apparent debt of $150 million with the store.
Bankrupt after having to pay 150 million dollars
Quickly, he realized that he was not really $30 million in the red; It was simply a mistake. After the incident, Vedal jokingly explained publicly how to file for personal bankruptcy so he wouldn’t have to face that huge sum of money.
Fortunately, everything was a scare and Vedal joked again with his followers, stating that all he needed was have more subscribers than anyone in Twitch history. Later, it was revealed that he chose to directly cancel all orders with the stuffed animal company, avoiding going into debt for the rest of his life.

Adrian’s niche deals in the Steam Winter Sale
The above links will lead you to the discounts of known and usually high-budget productions. However, sales are also a good opportunity to check out more niche titles. Many people are not ready to buy them when they are selling at full price, but it is worth giving them a try when they are heavily discounted. Let me show you some of my picks.
428: Shibuya Scramble
428: Shibuya Scramble is a crazy Japanese FMV adventure game. The use of real actors did not prevent the creators from preparing a tightly twisted plot. The game surprises with crazy ideas every now and then, but at the same time tells an interesting and extensive story. This is one of a handful of titles that received a perfect (40/40) rating from the Famitsu magazine.
428: Shibuya Scramble for PLN 35.99
Heat Signature
Heat Signature is an action game with a bird’s eye view in which we board spaceships by ourselves. What makes this title unique is the freedom to act. The player receives a lot of gadgets and abilities, and the ability to pause the action allows you to fully use them. We can sneak, sabotage the on-board systems, set traps or try our hand in open confrontations. The opponents have extensive AI that simulates the reactions to our actions, which makes the entire game dynamic. All in all, the whole thing can be described as two-dimensional Dishonored.
Heat Signature for PLN 10.79
INFRA
INFRA is another unusual production. This is an action adventure game that allows you to play the role of an engineer who specializes in the structural analysis of architectural defects and damage. This role is performed in the form of interesting logical puzzles, and the authors added a surprisingly good plot. In addition, the production has an amazing atmosphere and until the release of Half-Life: Alyx it was probably the most beautiful game built on the Source engine.
INFRA: Complete Edition for PLN 26.99
Unavowed
If you’re longing for the golden age of adventure games, then you should definitely check out Unavowed. This is a magnum opus by Wadjet Eye Games studio specializing in this genre. The game combines paranormal and detective threads, allowing us to investigate the occult mysteries of New York, while teaching us interesting facts about the true history of this city. The production also does not disappoint when it comes to puzzles. This is a position that Sierra would not be ashamed of in its best years. At the same time, it is not a title that focuses only on recreating old solutions. Unavowed offers a lot of fresh mechanics, ensuring a high non-linearity of the game.
Unavowed for PLN 32.39
Way of the Samurai 3 and 4
Way of the Samurai 3 and Way of the Samurai 4 are productions that can be described as samurai simulators. They combine elements of action games, adventure games and RPGs, enriching these genres with a large set of unusual solutions. These are not nice or polished productions. They are strange, often irritating, but at the same time they can be fascinating. For the full price, it would be difficult to recommend them, but for a dozen or so zlotys they are definitely noteworthy, especially for people looking for unusual experiences.
Way of the Samurai 3 for PLN 14.39
Way of the Samurai 4 for PLN 17.99
World of Horror
Can a game with black and white graphics made in MS Paint be scary? World of Horror shows that it is possible. This is an adventure RPG that allows you to play short horror stories, modeled on the Japanese representatives of this genre. The project is currently only available in Early Access (but it should get version 1.0 soon), but it already provides a lot of great fun and many completed stories. For me, it was the sweetest surprise of last year, and it has never been cheaper than the current Steam Winter Sale promotion.
World of Horror for PLN 46.97
