Ah, okay, if it is just an image, can it be hidden from view altogether, in order to give it a quiet space to chill?
Fine about the RSS, so there are plugins like this that detect the clck event and format the content into something readable? Cool, might make a note of that in the forums section.
If it is the style pack, do you think it would make any difference withdrawing theme support, or instead, selecting full FSE support. Got a feeling it could break stuff though. 🙁Wonderful! Tumble and dry after. 🙂

From this blog it explains:
Through From Dusk Till Dawn, the Titty Twister bar goes from Mayincatec-inspired nightclub to vampire den to a full-blown Mayincatec sacrificial pyramid almost buried in the Mexican desert. All within a short distance of the Mexican-American border.
And here there is:
As one of the genre world’s preeminent Mexican-American filmmakers, Robert Rodriguez is known for creatively incorporating his Latino background into his work. Even though Quentin Tarantino wrote the script for From Dusk Till Dawn, the matte shot of the Aztec temple at the end was Rodriguez’s idea, no doubt in an attempt to connect the film’s vampires to a Mesoamerican identity rather than the traditional European image. The filmmaker hung the painting on his wall for eighteen years until he finally got an opportunity to return to that imposing pyramid.
Yeah the AztecMayincatec theme wanted re-inforcing, if there was ever a little souvenir shop next to Titty Twisters that sold “local” vampire gear including pyramid shaped mementos… The resulting effect of the movie was to bang together a bunch of terrific ideas and hope it all worked within allocated time & budget constraints.
Liked the soundtrack, especially Stevie Ray Vaugahn and his brother’s blues. 🙂
Heh, had to choice on FTA of watching Piranha or Vera, went with Vera as the other seemed a bit teeny- was that the case with you?
Go for the early Midsomer Murders with Nettles, they have some genuine moments of creepiness, some of the late ones can be fun as well. 🙂Ah, missed that the SSD will be to load the games on, which makes sense, sorry. Yeah, on the W11 machine here, it’s the opposite, the OS lives on the SSD for a really speedy bootup, and if there’s any room left (500 GB), games can be installed, played, then uninstalled in order to accelerate its demise. 😛
HDDs are different, the motor driving the rotation usually conks out before anything else. 🙂
Is it ever worth trying SteamOS at some stage, SteamOS3 runs games better than Windows, so long as one uses Steam Deck hardware apparently.Ah, it’s a Valve game, and the site directly links to Steam for downloads, so you have it installed then. There are many things that appeal about the Steam interface, having certainly maturated, but not to the point of suppuration.
Yes, work & play. Surely there will (or does) exist a (non VR) game that folks with shout from the rooftops runs soooo much better on *Nix than Windows. Can one ever be tempted?
And the other thing, to reboot in order to play a game, won’t that bring forward the EOL circumstance of the precious SSD even more?
(The persistence of such dilemmas could send one past PEBCAC territory, and into the Slough of Despond, wringing their hands, sponging their eyeballs, and shaking their very peripherals with grief!) 😭Great, love the Droid! 🙂 What’s the name going to be?
Oh, and he’s not in Media, will that matter too much?
Went boldly forth and made this forum an admin one. Will anything break if we can the empty one?
What types of forums are on the table for addition, or was it just the General?
Edit: Ew, making this Admin has squinched everything again, but it’s kind of not too bad. 🙂- This reply was modified 1 year, 5 months ago by DeVaultSetter.

Looks great!
The list box with has underneath it a blank white box, did that ever have a purpose?
The RSS feed button brings up an XML page, does any of us have a use for it?
Something happened after the Theme update, the pages don’t open smoothly, parts of them show before they are supposed to, nevertheless, the odds are it’s nothing specific to us. 🙂Wow, blast from the past, the idea GLaDOS is a personification of Prometheus is interesting. Playing it on the ‘Nix? Possible with Steam, not with GOG.
Ah, okay, they seemed to have more of the right shape. If there ever was an animation in the loading of the web page with the aforesaid share links falling from the top to rest in their current position, then would it be better to call them share crumbs?
Terrible fires in Hawaii. 6.5 ml. of rain here today, long time between drinks, so more may come early next week. 🙂Definitely Sin City, why none have appeared on FTA here to date is cardinal!
From Dusk to Dawn is another Tarantino creation, and fits into the description of uneven. Some of the best scenes ever in noir schlock intermingled with surprisingly ordinary dialogue and plot/character development. Still recommended for the good bits. 🙂
Currently streaming The Bridge, and into the second series. There’s nothing much to say for it, other than each series having 13 episodes, hence the self-inflicted resolve to view it until the bitter end. 😛Obviously a step up from the W10 Windows Calculator, which itself isn’t too bad. Baldur’s Gate 3 is now released, and a few mods besides. Have a Baldur’s Gate (1) game save ~13 years back with 75% completion. Really wanted to complete that before getting onto BG2, other stuff such as Oblivion got in the way. 😛
Cool, thanks, (girding the loins for release of consequences pending). 🙂
Ah thanks, the current certificates (default and quickconnect) expire on the 13th of October, so we must have perform the magic on that date last year. 🙂
Go into the CP, hit External Access (under Connectivity), and wait a few seconds, there’s a firewall alert for DSM (http) for 5000, and DSM (https) for 5001. It’s safest to leave the firewall on, and optionally disabling the alert perhaps.
Just curious about the walrusrambling.com used in the W7 backup, Things are now a bit different in DSM 7.1, in the location of that url anywhere in the settings, was it originally placed in the Advanced section of External Access, and we(?) removed it since. Searching MS Teams for walrusramblings.com may provide the answer, not possible here any more as MS Teams is now uninstalled, unfortunately. 🙁Today, it seems to have done as you described. So, lost all patience, and pulled the plug with uninstallation.
Have a backup of the local folder just in case. Still logged into Blanko, by the way, so IIRC, all the conversations are retained as long as that org still exists. 🙂Nothing much, although we wanted to keep it private for some reason back then. 🙂
The dreaded @Bots of .Gone, who convert them to binary soup, and pour them into any of the bitbuckets found in the quicksands of DunneData! 😛
It’s a bit of an odd message, as there has been some email activity in the account over the early part of this year. If they want us to login, why not provide a link?
Running Edge on this machine, so attempting to login to Gmail, it requests my Google account details only. Do you know of any other way to login with Walrus to Gmail?
Edit: Oh, it’s only an updated policy notice, found out by receiving the same some good time later through the personal Google account. How odd!
Have you noticed this site: https://walrusramblings.wordpress.com/
Never completed the About page. Very sad about his mom’s death, the last update to the blog. Wonder where he is now, or if even he is still with us?- This reply was modified 1 year, 5 months ago by DeVaultSetter.
Opted in with VentraIP, they have one catch-all email contact: sa***@ve******.au, so a bit more convenient than the other mob. The FTP and hosting login/panel links in the OP are sure to change, hopefully not much else.
Whenever it wants to rain, the Peron’s tree frog gets active and frequents the drainpipes, with something like this:
Obviously a home recording with a mic, or from the tablet is possible, a water proof pipe camera & mic would be ideal! 🙂
There’s a name for the image effect in the following video – similar to that in the old movies when a character is about to recount or replay a scene remembered from an earlier time.
Yay, the ‘orrible white background begonno, thanks! 🙂
Sometime back, we touched on spoilers, I know you don’t use them, when this user posts junk, it’s nice to hide it in case of future epiphany. There is TinyMCE which adds a few things, and probably changes your recent efforts, and there is bbspoiler, withdrawn surprisingly recently, one of the user reviews citing vulnerability issues might have had an impact.
Spoilers aren’t very important right now, something more amenable may crop up soon. 🙂
Curious issue when typing a space right at the end of a line touching the RH edge. The visual result in the box is zero, every backspace in the area corresponds with the each space typed though.
Have you noticed opening the favourite breadcrumb in a new window won’t activate the favourite attribute for the topic, interestingly.- This reply was modified 1 year, 5 months ago by DeVaultSetter.
Nice one, the Wikipedia article on GladOS never got to GA, but they did manage to pull the Botticelli source from this book.
Ever play Portal – Wolpaw was great wasn’t he, also missed out on Pyschonauts as well. 🙁
Just love the crumbs – is that what you call them?
One of the links on his site has been updated to this, very interesting lead blog feature on Musk et al, and the Zen lexicon, yeah!
That Jack Frost fella looks scary. Yeah, lets get all a gush with Kill Bill, anything with Sly, Van Damme or Segal. These days, John Wick has the wherewithal to address many issues. 😛
Subscribed to the Cult Cinema Classics channel, they want $6.99 bucks a month to join it though. What’s the benefit of that other than no ads?
Have you seen The Cosmic Man?

Quitting and restarting doesn’t change it? If not, it’s still active here, in case there is anything more for retrieval. 🙂
Edit: Restarting shows the channels, switching away and back in can get the “… you’re missing out …” notification on the blank gui. 🙁
