      Another odd related issue from MS Edge, an incredible disappearing tab.
      A notable side-effect is the exception is not posted to any subcategory of Windows Events Logs, and the tab URL will not not show up in browser History. Used ChromeCacheView to search for any unposted text in the forum page, nothing.

        Heh, not unless you’re a super villain, in which case concerns regarding peace, order, and harmony in the community can be left at the door, assuming of course such an item will remain in one piece after your episode of rampant destruction. ๐Ÿ˜›

          On the list, (so long as Ming matches up with the character portrayed in the comic strip. ๐Ÿ˜› )
          Six Minutes to Midnight worked as a thriller – 6 or 7 out of 10 perhaps, the critics were obviously put off by extrapolation of the real life events. If they expected more from the film, what?
          Funny how Body Double initially flopped. Here’s the trailer:

          interesting cast selection, esp. Dennis Franz, and check out the penthouse. Definitely want one of these over here! ๐Ÿ™‚

            There are confirmed issues of issues with adding and launching shortcuts in Windows 11… Stay tuned!

              Okay, so you did have four monitors hooked up to the old desktop rig, do they all have dvi/hdmi/displayport connectors?
              Sounds like the new monitor is the one and same in use, right? (Still very much in antique DVI land here, and HDMI still for the televisions. ๐Ÿ˜› )

                Oh, well while the weather is warming up for spring, the pebble button is wanting the firm touch again. Must be the contacts literally shrinking from the very idea of coping without all that nice permafrost around! ๐Ÿ˜›
                And yes, definitely not running the Vax or any other heavy equipment (jackhammers, compressors, generators) near this rig whenever switched on. Sensitive, (and not so) new age connections, if you know what I mean. And, kid gloves, so as not to precipitate any kind of impromptu spiral descent. ๐Ÿ˜›

                Is it W10 still on the laptop, or has it upgraded, and did you end up managing to connect two monitors on it?

                  Could be, next time it happens, we’ll set up a crime scene, won’t be too long as there were one or two new arrivals today.

                    Um, sounds like you might be considering loading up Starfield.
                    Not tempted to see the TV series then?

                      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!

                        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:

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

                            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.

                              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˜›

                                    Your call entirely, actually not unhappy with the way it operates right now. As long as folks know it’s under the auspices of WP and not something else going on with the browser software. ๐Ÿ™‚

                                      There’s no room anywhere to post our ridiculous piccies. Here’s another post, of our favourite dog, spent hours trying to find out how one could post it as a simple slideshow in Facebook, guides like these don’t work. The remaining option is just to record the stills in an MP4 video. ๐Ÿ˜•

                                        Really weird there was never a desktop version for YouTube shorts, so that the layout would be more like the regular length videos. All that white space, and two clicks just to get the description. So did a bit of googling to answer this question.
                                        The purpose of which was to view this video in standard YouTube format, so the description at least is “less fuss.” Naturemapr is a nice site, if only Australia wide, spawned by a gov. dept. (so more or less provincial at that) – one would expect such an enterprise to be world-wide instead.

                                          Wow, know what model? If it’s possible to view the content either through the camera or an SD reader, does there come up anything interesting?
                                          How interesting, the Wikipedia article says there was an earlier series:

                                          Starting in July 2009, Power Girl received her first ongoing series, simply titledย Power Girlย (vol. 2), with the first twelve issues written byย Jimmy Palmiottiย andย Justin Gray, drawn byย Amanda Conner,[10]ย and colored byย Paul Mounts.[11][12]ย According toย Comic Book Resources, the series has been “wildly praised for its fresh and fun approach.”[13]

                                          Wonder who she paired with in that?
                                          The local newsagency moved shop in downsizing, and funnily enough at the same time someone faraway decreed no more MAD magazine issues were to enter this country. It so happens this is the last issue here. RIP AEN! ๐Ÿ™
