Oh, bugger, will repost. As being an issue, raised a request at WP if for no other reason than to put it out there!
A graveyard smash indeed- now it’s time for a holiday!

On the shiny new SSE machine now, so won’t get back to Baldur’s until April. Do remember a large number of quests popping up once the team has passed Wyrm’s Crossing though. π

The support team for Smeg didn’t want the 100 mb video file created and edited with Clipchamp. So, the easiest thing to do was use Youtube filtering to get the thing down to just under 12mb, at the same resolution.
It’s shockingly bad!

We’re all going to be wafted up to the cloud(s), where the future promises a safe haven for our souls, and our thoughts. leaving all earthly concerns behind. π

Nice, do declare the scourer/sponges here are well used, and at the same time not too hard on the nose. π

On the radio there was a very interesting show about ADHD, must confess some of my earlier days might have deviated somewhat from the neurotypical, taking byte sized chunks from OCD, DD and ADHD, well past all that now. The upshot from todays show was that…[Read more]

Shame came across as a little too disjointed, off-piste even, there was something missing in the character profile of the protagonist for it to work. But then again, as he is described by the other players as a bit of a weirdo, there’s the B-grade license immediately handed on a platter to the director. A fine film, if given a few extra edit…[Read more]

Oh, have some with power buttons in the PC graveyard underneath, have old Logitech, Laser, and Sky keyboards all from the noughties I think. Do remember posting a piccy of the nice looking Sky at AL, these days images on Google are buried, did happen to surf into a nice bit of banter re keyboards wayback. π

TheΒ buzzing from the sound chip is more related to a DPC latency thing, happens when playing something in a browser tab, and then switching out to another tab or application.
Because it happens only rarely, updating the driver may or may not necessarily be the fix. otherwise it’s turning off the AMD devices and disabling hardware…[Read more] -

Right now, using a “low-impact” customer power plan, as for the keystrokes, unfortunately the Prodigy has no power button! The PC chassis is endowed with one hence an unswerving reliance on that. π
The power plan includes a hybrid sleep which keeps the fans spinning, followed by full hibernation after 60 minutes. Thing is, if it’s not hibernated…[Read more] -

He’s quite attractive, and it’s on the list!
Yeah, sometimes there can be too much gross yuck, anything from Hammer (esp. Cushing, Lee, Reed) is worth a gander though. Why not try some from the Thriller series like The Colour of Blood or The Eyes Have It?

Ah, so toggling the Third-party cookies button actually adds the regex’d site root url to the allow list in Cookies, still don’t get the “No sites blocked” – don’t they just mean “This site not blocked” or is there still misunderstanding?
Thanks, at least we know Firefox is superior in this regard. π -

Lovely, bookmarked for a rainy day, (which at the moment unfortunately don’t come to often here).
We have a mystery here. It centres around an area north of here by the name of, you guessed it, Mystery Bay. It’s regarding the disappearance of five men in 1880, details here. This is the area as it was in 1895:

All very mysterious. Would like to…[Read more] -
