Brrrrr (shivering) the very thought of icecream and it’s “I scream”! 😛
You mean this site? Definitely worth a look, scrolling or paging down to the bottom, and it bounces up some and hides the text. We also have our own Science and Nature. 🙂
Had a thought that we should rename this topic to Random Wreckoning Balls- does it quite suit though?
On the radio today was Platform capitalism and the curse of “enshittification”, sort of thing I like to listen while roaming, as it were. Has a site, Craphound with a link to the mailing feed with heaps of fun stuff such as Capitalists Hate Capitalism. 😛

Lovely, thanks. 🙂
The pink button background is wonderful (e.g. here), so much so, the text requires a lorgnette – a darker shade might be a better fit.
The blocks with rounded corners as mentioned above – are they in the front page, or in the profiles – is it best done through Buddy Press?

A game that brings one back to the start like that wins a special place in this gamer soul. 🙂
Here are some top tips from GGSP a player half way through the game is guaranteed not to watch. 😛

Funny, no notification in the top ribbon, so missed these replies altogether! Could be another one for the bug topics, won’t be straightforward to pin down and repro.
Answered over there. 🙂

An operating system can provide “support” for any hardware, whether it works under the OEM driver is up in the air. As of last year, AMD don’t have any support at all for FreeBSD, looks a bit better for OpenBSD.
Yes, there’s quite a bit to choose from in code editors, one that also has language support, debugging, and auto-suggest.
Okay then, VR it is, and Windows 11 on the fun drive, thus a not so fun milestone is a VS installation? There hasn’t much doing with VS2019 over here for more than a year, so definitely not a front burner. 😛
Yeah, tell-tale signs are long read/writes, sluggish system, and BSODS. The mfg usually offer tools that gauge SSD fit for purpose, you could schedule those to run every quarter, for example. The good news (according to a quick Google) is, the bigger the SSDs, the longer they last, and the less they are used (fewer write cycles), the longer they last. Make from that what you will. 🙂

Is it a branded mouse – it’s much easier to recall and id the relics if there was a snazzy model name or brand associated with it. 😛
The pebble has regressed a little, the button is a little unresponsive and the movement is less than optimal, could be the cold temperature too. Will persist. 🙂
Made a Puppy Linux USB disk and updated the thread, don’t really know if this is the best for Boot/UEFI diagnosis though.

[DeVaultSetter]

Happened again today when posting on a tab left open for a day or two. Really have to close them after use! 🙁

[DeVaultSetter]

The new system really wants a topic in Projects. 🙂
If not happy with Visual Studio in Windows, perhaps it’s better in Linux? Confirm here that because of its 2 year lifespan, upgrading and export of settings is fine, whereas packages and plugins have to be re-installed. Not sure about VS on Ubuntu or BSD, ever tried Wine?
Maybe the same thing goes for Visual Studio Code, and even though it is smaller in size, it would have just about all the IDE you and I would ever want.
Looking at the basic options for the video card in this table, perhaps Vulkan can provide ample support.
Edit: You can always get W10 in a VirtualBox, not sure about W11. 🙂

It’s pretty good, thanks. 🙂
Widened the comment block a bit, and had a look in the editor for curved edges to the message comment blocks, as with the buttons, to make for more spaceship vibe. Nothing specifically, yet There is this CSS for page content – possible?

[DeVaultSetter]

Walrus as a partner site!?
Still waiting, and bumped Pip in order for him to correct any bad info or understandings, not biting. Looks like he may be busy for the time being, on past history an update may not be too far away.
Apparently there’s more overhead with the other Disqus plugins, so they will remain the last choice for the time being. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

What’s the card game again? (With these fumbling hands the best is 52 card Pickup!)
Funny how the Steam servers choke up when there’s a sale on.
Cold and dry over here, how is it over your way?

[DeVaultSetter]

None can compare to good ole Blue Eyes! What about a whistling frog?

The wiki was backed up to the file TeamsWikiContentFiles.7z – have you still got it? The mht files won’t display in Edge, but will if changed to html. The images are included in the appropriate wiki channel subfolders in the file, but the export process kept their links in the form of https://lostbraindeadgmailcom.sharepoint.com/sites/None/_api/web/getfilebyid(%2741b81656-b2ea-4590-86aa-53acbec2211c%27)/$value, so not working real well. 🙁

Happened again today after successfully submitting a post to another thread, so no logout issues. This time, hitting the back button revealed no post content. Must have been too quick for AutoSave, (or something) – changed the interval to 45 seconds.
Edit: Most likely related to an oops in the Cache Enabler Settings. Cached pages now expire 10 hours after being created, before they never expired, so could have been sending expired nonce data to the WordPress engine. The site cache was also cleared when a new post was submitted, now turned off. Cache is now turned on for mobile devices. 🙂

Looks very nice, thanks. 🙂
Another thing with Robin’s Visual, the font sizes (haven’t tested with colours – Bold is okay) are honoured until it comes to submitting the post, when they are ignored. And smilies won’t visualize in Visual either.
Edit: there’s a bit more to it, regarding the occasion of the Teams login error notification message copied into Visual, with the large text showing up as expected. Not sure what he uses to reproduce the large attribute when it is not part of an HTML or CSS tag, or why it is not translated to HTML tags. More research required!

Teams is still starting at boot, and the channel content is there as usual, which is good, in case we have any further items for retrieval.
Occasionally, (2 or 3 times out of 10) there is a message at startup:

You’re missing out! Ask your admin to enable Microsoft Teams for Blanko

You’re currently signed in as  lm******@st*********.com

Select Sign up for Teams to continue, or use a different account.

Unable to proceed past this until, … it goes away next boot. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Yes, best left well enough alone for now.
Both showed on Chrome on the tablet, when logged out and then logged in, and now, no edit/reply options presenting, so looks consistent with the desktop.
Could be with all this weird stuff going on there’s some kind of memory fault with WordPress – not an easy one for the devs to track down. 🙁

[DeVaultSetter]

On the forums page, just the one search is visible on the desktop – the edit box and a search button above right of the forum header bar. It’s the only one I use and the only one available. Is that the primary or secondary?
The one on the right of the top ribbon isn’t visible to the public, unfortunately, haven’t used it much. No edit/reply options on the desktop for the search hits either, but sure to be useful down the track. 🙂
Thanks. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Not getting any change in the desktop over here (yet) after clearing cache, (sample).
Robin’s fix was a while back:

4.7.5
2.) Added ability to add topics/replies to main site search

Couldn’t see an option for it in Search Styling, was it somewhere else?

[DeVaultSetter]

M-o-r-e O-x-y-g-e-n! (pad pad)
You mean the profile pages? They look great. The front page backdrop wants a few things fixed up to bring out the best of them – shouldn’t be too much of a challenge.
All looking lovely, as an afterthought it might be an idea to lighten the tone of stickied posts – re this one in Forums.
The OP to this topic is well maintained, thanks. 🙂
