Best hopes for a successful excision of that nasty growth and a speedy recovery. 🙂

This thread has a workaround for the widget error if it is ever required:

require_once ABSPATH.’wp-includes/class-wp-widget.php’;

[DeVaultSetter]

You mean the Fix Threaded Replies Jump bug fix? Could work, feel free to try if you like. In the meantime, updated the above link to include this bbPress thread which has it as a core bug/feature. 🙂
Edit: Contemplate’s fix at that thread doesn’t work anymore. 🙁
Will retry tomorrow. 🙂

Ah, sounds more like belladonna, many forms of colocasia (including antiquorum), alocasia and even unrelated Xanthosoma are staple in many parts of the world, all requiring boiling/steaming to remove the effects of the crystallized calcium oxalate. Neurotoxins are nuked at 80°C. 🙂
The sunflower is still alive, very bowed over now, the petals are long gone since, and the leaves are beginning to pale. Youth fleeting, age defeating. Would you recommend harvesting the flowerhead for the pot?

Sounds like it’s a known issue. A factory reset helped one, but not another.
Someone suggested:

Go into settings > Device care > Performance profile and set the profile to light.

Is that setting on yours, it’s not found here, unfortunately, just auto-optimization under Performance.
On the tablet here there is a Battery section in Settings where there is:

Battery Protect (Limit Charge to 85%)

They explain it here, is there a reason why the limit can’t be 99% instead for the same effect?
Also in Batteries setting there is a Power saving switch, doesn’t promise to be much of an impact though. 🙁

Do appreciate the work gone into the Anandtech and 3dMark sites, the functionality is no doubt a bit more clunky if you don’t sign up.
This is planned to be a winter PC, thus a slightly unhinged reliance on cool ambient temperatures at least as far as pre global warming conditions go. 😛
Have to agree as far as performance goes, here are topcpu’s UHD 770 comparison assessments, hd 7700, gtx 650, and rx 550. Interestingly, the 4gb rx 550 does not quite match the similarly priced 1gb hd 7770. One naturally assumes that as “things improve with time”, the rx would exceed the hd doubly or so, silly, silly. 😛
Good thing is the igc uses much less power than any gpu really, including the low powered 50W rx, a card purchased for low footprint and high performance, we wish.
Yeah, 4 16gb slots and only one stick – sounds like an idea to beef it up sometime. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Going with pretty basic, the igc has potential for some newer games on a tower with an i7 and possibly faster memory as demonstrated here:

No-one mentioned overheating in the comments there, fortunately this is only an i5, the docs tabulate heat dissipation to make us all feel safe. 🙂
And, news flush, there will be no upgrading or modding the innards of this beast- other than of course, to – ahem – relieve potential overheating issues. 😛
Regarding Linux, the major drawback is just the one physical drive, so the challenge is to partition it correctly in W11.
As a matter of interest, comparing the graphics power of the UHD 770 and the RX550 in the “new PC” mentioned here here and back at MS Teams, there is much to be said in favour of the RX550, for which the “heavier” gameplays here will be reserved. Technical city is less enthusiastic.
Looking at a side by side comparison to the 2012 HD 7700 on the old Skyrim PC, believe it or not, the HD 7700 wins, mostly. Technical city prefers the UHD 770.
A similar diff to the 2012 GTX 650 on the Oblivion PC has it roughly the same, yet Technical city continues to lean toward the UHD 770.
Funny that, wonder if certain rival companies have a hand in those test results. 😛

Yes, a magnificent system indeed for a bit of extra coin, the said extra coin in the pocket will be put to good use in other (hopefully) non-bill paying enterprises. 🙂

You mean no updates after the OneUI 6 update? None here either, no doubt there will be a few installed on the A8 after Android 14, might be even lucky enough to get Android 18 when it comes out.
Remember back in the early days of browsing you could hit Esc to stop images loading, there’s mention of Ublock Origin at the end of this thread – would that help?
Ah, the A7 lite is fairly new, 2021, in fact, what was the model of the older phone – is that still being used?

[DeVaultSetter]

The Oblivion desktop is kaput after being powered on after some months in storage. The lights and fans turn on, the DVD door works if operated, no BIOS beep or light on keyboard, nothing on screen either.
The old Skyrim PC has turned out even worse, the last windows session on it gone into permanent frost. On reboot there was a service exception BSOD, so rebooted. The Windows logo would show for a few seconds, then came the spinning dots animation followed by blank screen with no activity in the device at all. The machine would then power off/reboot with the same behaviour. Did check the UEFI settings, nothing out of order there.
Later power on would get rapid beeps from the box, right now, there is no response to the power button at all. The cause of the error is PSU, memory, CPU, or the whole kit and caboodle, who knows?
Thus it’s very much like the aftershocks of the disintegrating relics causing one to be propelled into the invidious situation of acquiring new hardware. 🙁
Done! 😛

After the above inclusion, this is a sure fire eyeroller. 😛
The purchase of an HP Elite SFF 600 G9 from here could be correctly construed as being diametrically opposed to any religion not espousing branded products.
The rationale for the switch goes like:

• Cheap, free delivery, and good support.
• Low power consumption.
• Quiet operation.
• On board graphics, so don’t have to worry about OEM graphic drivers.
• Fine for older games like Oblivion and even Skyrim, not for things like CSGO 2 which will never be played in any case.
• Lightweight, compact, and a wee bit upgradeable. 😛
• Comes with obsolete DVD so convenient to play the TES5 and BG from the time-worn disks here./li>
• Ubuntu certified, so an option of Linux later.

Divining a good custom built rig these days is fraught with a myriad of true, quasi-true and totally false leads, and a good evaluation is hard to find. Similar hurdles in the research required to land such a beauty as the above thelio mira r3 (404 now – that was quick).

[DeVaultSetter]

Bummer with the old Oblivion machine, turn it on, lights, fan, no BIOS beep, looks like the power supply again playing up as a result of being powered off a while. If it is anything like last time, just leaving it on for a while will “charge the PSU” to the correct boot threshold. Who knows?
Meanwhile, using the old Skyrim LE machine which used to be really fast. Before W10 and clogged logs got hit it with extra damage. Skyrim was wiped but there’s Morrowind on it, and probably wouldn’t harm to load Ob from the cd here anyhow.
Oh, comings goings, ding dong doings! 😛

Something incredibly no-organizational: Spam again!
Since inception, we have had 83 spam messages, some of which have have been endowed with moderation by Cleantalk. The ones on this page appear to be a ChatGPT mash up of chemistry papers, last call for punters before binning. 🙂

As soon as the gui shows, quickly clicking on a channel link can avoid the new MS Teams “you’re missing out” wall, yet still show the overlay nag mentioned above.
The gui can stay up for up to 30 mins before being replaced with “the new Teams is ready” dialog.
Surprisingly, and rather sadly, there is an error retrieving the messages from the “Community” channel.

We’re having trouble loading your messages. Try refreshing.

There was a wealth of Teams classic bugs and whatnot unearthed for cold storage there, too bad we’ll never be likely to revisit those particular memories anytime soon.
Come to think of it, we probably would not have in any case. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

If that is a sidebar, it’s well cloaked. 😛
Besides extra navigation, does it provide anything that isn’t on the pages already? Personally not a huge fan as it’s chopped of 50% of the real estate, although a good idea in user forum settings, perhaps devault for new user. 🙂

Grampsweb is the first port of call, possible on Synology, also possible in hosting though no plugin based WP integration as such. There does happen to be Tangled Web at Github from late ’21, certainly on the cards.
For now, trying out the Narrated Website, the first blue was selecting the tar.gz in the export options, the backslashes turned borko in the tarball, e.g.:

pplb0dc824f7463f2fc525fbe14e7f0b.html

Consequently the lucky first upload of the tree showed the index beautifully, the rest of the items 404. The second was successful. 🙂

Wow, it’s true squirrels will attack cables if they interfere with the interop of their burrows. Over here there’s plenty of rats, and it’s unwise to lay cables too close to a wombat’s abode.

One may guess I personally entertain a slight aversion to all underground pipes in this locality, because so many have been broken moving the goats around over the years, notwithstanding the first correspondence from a utility upon initial residency was from no other but Dial Before You Dig, very helpful when it came to phone lines, their URL now redirecting to https://www.byda.com.au. Still looks like a pretty savvy bunch, so there you go!

It’s beyond the reach of the wifi (do prefer the spelling 😛 ), if the cable isn’t snicked it might have to replaced. Right now, banking on false alarm and paranoia. 😛

No worries. 🙂
Ah, having a pet door so she can enter any time is a good idea, a good daily dog walk provides plenty of air and powder might help to keep the area dry. Shem, the fox terrier here is 13, and has had a black protuberance by his mouth for years. The vet gave it a “green light” so long as the thing doesn’t morph in some disturbing way. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Definitely checking out the next codpiece, and oh yeah, Roddy Piper was a true artist! 😛

A first glimpse of the lead in Taxi Driver and Robert De Niro may not come to mind, from what we know of his later work. Scorcese wrung all the changes well from the shock ending revelations of the film, which, although very watchable, comes off as slightly “dated” – do hate that word. 😛
Our own satirical news show, The Weekly includes reviews on TV shows, the latest from Reality is House of Villians:

You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time

What if it’s just the wafer cone without the filling? Funny about Joe Biden’s ice cream Gaza ceasefire speech, if it was performed in Washington with a lollipop instead, illegal!

Had a recent scare involving asbestos in mulch in schools, much of it is bonded though. When conditions become hot, dry and windy, there’s more of a risk. Use mulch all the time here, but it’s locally sourced, fortunately. 🙂

The banana car has done the rounds in news media again, earlier iterations are from at least 2008 such as the following beauty:

Even earlier (~2002) was the banana bus. 😛

Did they release any update/regret/explanation/ on the issue? Good rapport with customers has, is, and always will be a must for service providers. 🙂
Just a heads up for next Sunday-Monday, moving back to the other place wherein lies the old W10 Oblivion machine, connected by a long, in ground ethernet cable to the router. If that hasn’t been nicked as was suspected, all should be fine. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Think so, the TPP site is WIP as they revamped the plans last November, the one I’m on corresponds to the Shared cPanel Advanced in this list. Might consider the Advanced Plus later, the following goodies will be superfluous to Stearnvault bar RAM, bandwidth, throughput and CPU:

• CPU: 400%
• RAM: 4 GB
• Throughput: 5 MB/s
• IOPS: 4096
• Email accounts: unlimited
• Databases: unlimited
• FTP Accounts: unlimited
• Addon domains: 10
• Subdomains: unlimited
• Jetbackup: Yes
• Storage: 30 GB
• INODES: 750,000
• Bandwidth: 1 TB
• Max Mailbox size: 20 GB

Surprisingly, there exists an email service for the xzjkv5sl account in cPanel, you’ll want the keys to the palace for that, did enquire with them if an alias for xzjkv5sl were possible. They, with considerable alacrity, will immediately surf to the link you provided above, and eagerly run it through the console. 🙂
