Maybe try something like this, if adblocker is failing

    1. curl -o 1.htm http://www.electronicdesign.com/embedded-revolution/ryzen-boards-reign-embedded-world-2018

    2. sed -i '/<p>/,/<\/p>/!d' 1.htm

    3. firefox file:///1.htm

What is the purpose of the sed?

[adventureadmin]

Specifically, it modifies the file in place (-i), Matches lines between paragraph tags(/PatternStart/,/PatternEnd/), Then, doesn't delete those lines matching the pattern range (!d), which has the effect of deleting all other lines outside the pattern range when passed the in-place argument.

Being partially sed stupid myself (or just plain stupid), I think its supposed to pull only the text between paragraph tags and save that to an htm file; then launch firefox and display that file, giving you only the pertinent text of the article (sans ads)

[aplorbust]

Remove Javascript and links to Javascript files that load ads, etc.

Preserve only the desired content: text describing the boards, links to manufacturers websites, links to images.

Looks like it is deleting everything not contained in paragraph tags.
