Just a bump in case there was something missed, performed a quick pass through the MS Teams c5******************************@th****.skype/1628003381128?tenantId=315811a9-2b1d-4c09-aed8-0b01fe856630&groupId=31e32a3b-d747-4b03-b99b-56805df5b85e&parentMessageId=1628003381128&teamName=Walrus&channelName=Server&createdTime=1628003381128&allowXTenantAccess=false” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener nofollow”>thread before the above writeup, if that helps. 🙂

Why not, it’s a great idea! 🙂
Ah, you mean propel folks in biscuit shaped tubing, or even longboards around a multilevel pinball arena. Possibly one for a reality TV sporting show. We’ll be wanting the specs on the coilgun again, sorry.
Yeah, the pneumatic tubes would want to be transparent, obviously, with some de-pressurization to enhance speed?

Thanks, tacked on a little bit more to the OP, the CGI-BIN interface is interesting, it says in the panel it uses PERL version 5.8.1 when we’re only up to 5.38, and also uses a super ancient Python 2.2. Might be best not to worry too much about it at present. 🙂
Edit: The traffic has exceeded 68 GB (of 100 GB), and the lease is up for renewal next February 9. As we’re not yet half way through, might send them a PM as their accounts/plans docs aren’t too revealing. 🙂

Blow some of that rain down here please!
The curtains on Nature’s theatre are never drawn, and everyone gets a front seat, (at least in co-op mode.) 😛
Setting aside the usual temptations, how has Eve evolved since the last time you played it?
That’s three times my monthly data allocation (which is at the tipping point again) – CODMW is another behemoth.

[DeVaultSetter]

Taken the bike out for a spin recently – or is the weather still uncooperative?
Very dry over here- there was a shower a few weeks ago with a rainbow out the back!

[DeVaultSetter]

I’d start off with Fritz, they have a good bunch of tutorials to get started with, and the pages are nicely put together, and things are well explained. The others are great as well, the GEDA is really impressive.

[DeVaultSetter]

It’s going back to the day of signup to SO (March 2013) when it copied over the Gravatar profile as it were. Cannot recall using Gravatar before then, must have done it through some WP website then.
There’s an AutoHotkey for X11 based on the earliest AHK V1 (2004). It seems Windows has changed so much, it would be a gargantuan effort to make a Linux AHK with the same capabilities of the latest AHK V1 or V2.
Should they be PM’d regarding the issue?

[DeVaultSetter]

Yes, there are only two things she cares about really, biccies and cream, and if she doesn’t get them, we aren’t pals at all!
A minor issue with the images referenced from uploads is that they are always visible to the public, and if linked only from a private forum, they won’t automagically become unavailable. So, when it comes to posting sensitive or revealing images, proceed with caution. 🚦

[DeVaultSetter]

It’s a beauty, although (USD99.99 – USD169.99) is still a bit steep for this sparsely populated wallet, what price for comfort?
From the onboard sound chip right at bootup is cool, from a soundcard even more amazing. In the old days, nothing more than a beep out of the PC speaker, does yours have one of those?
Out of curiosity, have you the 32″ or 49″ monitor?

[DeVaultSetter]

Certainly! Just “zhuzhed up” the old AL lab article a little, without doing too much yet. It would be wonderful if you could try it out on the Linux build for comparison, and of course, the building of your own family tree! 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Are you using one of theirs? They also provide sound samples for Royals/Jades/Brown/Pink so choices are easy to make.
Indeed. Nice one for grub from here:

Burg in Ubuntu is more sedate:

Great!
Have you tried Virtual Desktop or Oculus Link on Windows yet? Like to know the difference to NMS.
Funny, the noise from the fans always seem loud to begin with, but like tinnitus, it eventually fades to white noise. As long as they don’t develop a nasty squeak, like the Mistral fan used downstairs here in summer. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Does the daughter board go in one of the PCI slots?
Two speakers are usually enough unless it’s a large room- sounds as if you are accustomed to the quad setup from the old system, they would be necessary for VR no doubt.

[DeVaultSetter]

Went ahead a moved them to the Media Library. WP makes two smaller sized copies of each image for lower resolutions, so they produce a bit more overhead than expected. Won’t start worrying too much until there be a few hundred of them. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Never heard of Humanoids From the Deep, but the name kind of gets you in. 😛
Ah yes, done in the days when Harvey Weinstein was “young and innocent, so it’s on the fav. list. Rick Wakeman’s music another plus:

Almost to the end of episode 1 of Vagrant Queen, but no, although it’s bright and snappy, there’s that deja vous feeling of been there before, the dialogue perhaps the main culprit. Take me back to early teens, will definitely complete it! 🙂
The critics were right about Fallen, so much could have been done to make it more entertaining; “beloved cult classic” doesn’t quite cut it, thus recommended for a high spot in the “not to watch” list. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Lovely, are you running it in 4k (still very much SciFi over here)?
See what you mean, those things are block spacers, there’s a blurb on them here, and another bit in the next section. They seem rather fiddly!

[DeVaultSetter]

Congrats!
Just curious, in the light of this rather old question, how customizable will the dual boot OS choice look after it has been tweaked to state of usability?
Interesting about the fans, if not through the motherboard, are they connected through a port or something else?
Yeah, forgot about the sound, so their motherboard doesn’t have a slot for a soundcard then?

[DeVaultSetter]

The only way to login to Gravatar these days is to have your email “associated” with WordPress.com. Something must have changed since the last time I logged into Gravatar, for it was a long time ago, and there is no record (or memory) of any WordPress.com account on the books here. So, logging in the your email address, there is no password prompt, but an email sent from WordPress.com entitled Log in to WordPress.com and containing a jump link to log in, along with the obligatory link timeout warning. Clicking the link, and voila, the user is logged in, with no password verification prompting at all.
But, they must have a password of mine on record, because there exists a reset password link page. Hope of all hopes it will not, as is can be the case, be requiring the old password in order to change it. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Cleared out an old, but empty 2022 directory, along with its subdirectories, presumably used by Twenty Twenty-Two from wp-content/uploads. Funny thing, the screen shots of the directory in this article show the 2022 directory in a Twenty Twenty-Three configuration. Hope of all hopes nothing has been inadvertently hurt. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Apologies, missed the query about the search results. Is the post excerpt block the one to change? There’s a few ideas here.
Yes! Just spotted Jupiter in wp-content/uploads/2023/07. The giant on post watch serves us well, now here comes a thought bubble: could he do even more while spinning?

Hmmm, apart from the overheads, the novelty would wear off very quickly. 😛
