Does Linux let you disable its system-embedded advertisements? Didn't think so!

I just wish it would stop showing me ads for Linus' Only Fans. Like, I already subbed, please go away.

It does.

sudo pro config set apt_news=false and sudo truncate -s0 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20apt-esm-hook.conf

But I feel sorry for you if you are still using Ubuntu at this point.
