      The random dropping of the ae ashtree ligature and the resulting mess of spellings is actually one of those "this is why English is complex to spell and pronounce" things. If people used the full, traditional spellings without trying to get all fancy and modern, it is actually easier. Understanding the ash tree, when it would appear in words and that it is pronounced consistently actually makes spelling and pronunciation far easier. It's only when we try to shorten it and get fancy that we realize that we are overloading other letters with tons of sounds and have left ourselves without a spelling based guide to pronunciation.

      Because most people don't bother to learn the "rules" behind a lot of this stuff they instead are forced to memorize what seem like irrational spellings of individual words.

          Yes it does. If you have any questions ask away!

          Should I have AD block turned off?

          I've whitelisted it, as it was blocking some of them...

          OT: Thought Fluke changed their name to NetScope or something?

                    and they're back.

                    The ads were missing for me all of yesterday even though I've changed nothing.

                    Just now, they are back.

                      I am using ABP here and I have yet to see it block a single ad. I made this domain an exception just in case, though.

                        I made it an exception and it blocked them anyway!

                          Now that is odd.

                              I am using ublock origin, but I've never changed the setting for this site. Until yesterday I saw the xByte ads just fine. but then I saw MQ's post about new ads, and noticed I then saw nothing.

                              And as I mentioned, they are back today.
