Or one of the sites your visiting is bitmining:

Ad-blocking software has cut a hole in the purses of media companies over the past decade. As part of its plan to combat that trend, media company Salon is jumping on the cryptocurrency bandwagon.

Starting Sunday, Salon began asking its readers that use ad-blockers to turn over spare computing power in a bid to mine a cryptocurrency known as Monero.

That comes as media companies seek alternatives to ad revenue, which have taken a hit thanks to the popularity of ad-blocking software.

5AF, Reddit, and Google right now. So I have to assume that Kicksave is Bitmining all of us.

In reality, I'm pretty sure that it's Reddit Enhancement Suite causing the bloat right now. Happens from time to time.

Now I see that it's not your CPU spiking. I was on the Pirate Bay website on my "media server" (an old laptop) and the CPU was spiking and the fan blasting until I closed the web page.

A guy that works for my company has a shirt on that says **** cancer, and instead of a 'u' it is a skull and crossbones. Not so sure the shirt is really workplace appropriate.

You live in Philly, so anyone wearing a shirt is probably acceptable.

That could also be true. And I live in the suburbs of Philly (most certainly a difference).

Hates Reese's and then follows up with "PB swirl or gtfo"...?

Are you trying to catch these hands, friend?

I don't know why you people struggle with this concept.

Reese's peanut butter is dry, chalky crap. Real peanut butter is creamy and smooth (unless it's chunky).

Nah, I'm good. Enjoy your gritty pb cups, incels.

Aldi's sells a bag of pb cups with actual peanut butter in them. And they are delish.

I actually like the gritty/dry peanut butter in Reese's.

I'm pretty sure the gritty/dry taste to the Reese's PB cups is the inclusion of paraffin wax. Either way, sign me up for a Reese's any day.
