Slashdot begins blocking adblockers

Most people here probably came from slashdot [slashdot.org] originally, so it won't need much introduction.
The owners of the site have decided to go all in on advertising enshittification [pluralistic.net], and anyone visiting any page with an adblocker installed will be greeted by several seconds of JS bloat trying to inject ads past your adblocker, followed by a message box that demands you disable your adblocker, and forces a page reload.
You will be honored for contributing your time and skill to a worthy cause.
