      Glad to hear it! ๐Ÿ™‚
      Never got to a cat 4, and the maps showed a different story, Tampa seemed to be at the edge of it, that’s well south, but more coastal.
      Don’t have one of them, is it battery powered?

        Okay, so then this A/C system should help. A bit pricey, let’s hope it works out once installed. ๐Ÿ™‚
        Didn’t you have a robot vacuum cleaner – over here the Piranha is very handy. Very old, so not in their current product range.
        The account location data is wrong, so asked a question about it.

          It’s on for tomorrow night then. According to CNN you’ll just be out of the big bad red zone, if that means anything other than debris not flying at full speed. ๐Ÿ˜›
          Portable power banks and the like have a limited life span as well.

          Water temperatures around southern Florida climbed to 100 degrees Fahrenheit in some areas this summer, and temperatures in the Gulf overall have been record-warm, with more than enough heat to support rapid strengthening.

          Eek, that’s of some concern! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
          Edit: The weather channel upgraded it to just inside the big red bad zone of 110+ mph gusts. Sorry! One thing for sure – if that were here, the roof would be the biggest concern.

            Going to play The Sims on Windows again? Might go nicely with Vulkan on Linux.
            Yes, MAD has gone entirely to Reprintsville, there will be nothing like it again, I’m afraid. Yet, … still looking. ๐Ÿ™‚
            Sounds like they they have found a template, or at least the rock had an idea of what you were looking for, and ran off to get it!

            Ouch! All my kerf for your surf & turf, herbs and spices from yonder werf!

              Ah, well, doesn’t harm to have candles, lanterns, braziers or even gaslights handy. Torches are my preference though. ๐Ÿ™‚
              Seems like they are saying cat 3, so bunker down, and stay safe!๐Ÿ”

                It was the original, and back on the watchlist as might have confused it with something else. ๐Ÿ™‚
                Don’t get all of the negative feedback on Legend, even though Scott did take on the task of pruning a fair chunk off the original to “suit the locale.” It’s a fantasy after all, and seemed to be adequate for the genre, although some of the scenes were derived from such stock that might be described as somewhat “kitsch iconic.” Some of the events in the story & scene switches jerked on the senses a bit, and being a Fantasy focussed on Cruisey “valorization”, the dialogue was to be interpreted as music rather than anything that had to be put to the understanding. Wonder if the voice of the vampiric Darkness could have been the source of inspiration for The Transcendent One in Planescape: Torment? ๐Ÿ™‚
                Goldsmith’s original score was very good, as were the follow-ups, many of the youtube video clips may incur copyright censoring, so the following may not be around for long:

                  Yes, saw that, cat 2 – possibly more. Do you have backup power?

                    All of a sudden, they’re back! The only possible explanation is “something regional.” Sounds good to you?

                      The two disks on the NAS are configured as a single volume, so it’s not possible to view actually what’s on what until there’s some kind of catastrophic failure on one.
                      The NAS unit is slowly becoming a receptacle for lint, fluff and dust, a dusticle if you like. Would a cover of sorts help in any way?

                        Second one is more in character, also like the retro ones.

                          Really? How strange.
                          Cleared the site cache on Edge, still nothing. The title text moves to the left border to cover.

                            Certainly, or even some aspect of the card itself. Has been tested before. Nothing in the NVIDIA logs of interest, the times of the logged events (adjusted to local time only in their backup files) all point to the time when the driver is loaded. Nothing in the shell, CBS or DISM logs either.
                            And there’s always the drama with bootup. ๐Ÿ˜›

                                Yes, we’ll see one way or the other if VentraIP will change it. Wp-phpmyadmin can access most of the DB – would that help in any way?

                                  When considering trying out the unpaid version of Personal Vault (PV for short), be urged to read the fine print beforehand, or incur all of what has befallen to this poor user in resorting to threads such as this for reference.
                                  The extra 2FA security layer did look attractive at the time, so, upon activation through the explorer shell, the first epiphany came through loud and clear that nothing will happen if no files/folders are stored in the PV. After depositing a file in there, it’s not long before one finds out the unpaid version of the Vault will only hold a maximum of three files. If you place in there a folder containing more than 3 files, it will change colour, and the tooltip will be “Your Personal Vault is full.” As a matter of interest, stored an empty folder, and rebooted. A nasty series of notifications popped up, indicating the PV is locked, and the entire OneDrive synchronization will remain suspended until said PV is unlocked (to facilitate access to the grand total of one empty folder mind you.) In order to unlock it, one has to go through the 2FA process, where MS have turned off auto-suggest in the dialogs so that usernames and passwords have to be manually inserted. You then find that the PV automatically locks after a period of inactivity – 20 minutes on the web is default, but can be increased to four hours in the One Drive Settings Account page. To make it easy for users, this One Drive Settings page cannot be accessed from the usual settings dialog, only by right clicking the icon in the explorer navigation pane, and Microsoft have conveniently provided no hyperlink shortcuts like ms-settings for quick access to OneDrive-Settings.
                                  One consequently finds that after repeat exercises of the 2FA unlock, the fun element begins to lose its shine, as does the prospect of running the PV at all, thus bringing the disable PV option into focus. Can be done, and as it so turns out, only through the browser interface, as opposed to the enabling exercise carried out above.
                                  Ah, the things we do for the sake of security! ๐Ÿ˜›

                                      Oh right, that’s interesting, was it an integral part of setting up BBPress?
                                      Yes, it looks like it’s a new CP at least. They are fixing up the accounts side of things, might be a a couple of weeks or so. ๐Ÿ™‚

                                            While having a look around for more info regarding this security issue, checked the CleanTalk logs to find no incidents, so don’t think it’s that.
                                            Other WP users, (particularly Ninja FW subs) have a similar type of warning message, it may be related to logging on from different devices. Or long shot — different OS? In any case, moving over to VentraIP is a good move, because it sounds more like something back at the host than anything else. They should have the answers! ๐Ÿ™‚

                                            Good idea, do they offer a discount for say a 5 or 10 year plan?
