I'm also a terrible clickbait target, now that I've had almost enough coffee to jump-start my frontal cortex

. The computer I'm using is old, but it's durable, the things I do online (research what I find interesting, mostly) keep me well occupied. Also, the computer was a gift, so part of taking good care of a gift I couldn't afford to replace if I broke it includes "don't go poking around clickbait sites if you don't want to end up shelling out for the computer shop to have to get brand-spankin-new malware off your machine".
Seriously, it's happened like 3 times in the past. I never get any kind of serious malware issue unless it's the Friday of a major holiday weekend, like a bank-closing holiday. So I'm boringly careful about where I surf.
And no, I'm not gonna fall for the "important browser update!" that keeps randomly hijacking me. I checked, it's a scam, not gonna get fooled and wreck my computer.
