I had never heard of Gongshi before. Those are awesome. I enjoyed learning about that.

Then Wired threw up a screen whinging about my adblocker and told me to whitelist them or give them a buck. I almost ranted to their support email.

Fuck you, Wired. You're a wholly-owned subsidiary of Conde Nast.

I just now added Wired to the banned website list on the router here at the house and at work.

And nothing of value was lost.

It still weirds me out that Wired is the techie magazine that survived. Everyone thought Wired was just barely a step up from Fast Company even when it launched, and it's gotten even more straight laced since then.
