      Funny, there’s no “Stats” in the Dashboard here, did you manage to add one in?
      Think there were some “humans” a while back, the Cleantalk Firewall logs provide a different angle:

      Facebook, Ireland? Lot of MSNbots flagged as harmless. Someone we know? 😛

      Yeah, with flatulence of pet moggy of late, it’s getting a little too chat j’ai pété here too. 😛

        FWIW super professional is the vibe over here. Thanks, will check out the site on the tablet as well. 🙂
        Will the CSS allow for the three items in the nav. bar be right aligned I wonder?

          The D/L info on BOSS is sadly out of date, looks like most are using LOOT now as we all know. Still use BOSS here as most LO dependent mods here haven’t changed. 🙂

            Up here have an old Philips HQ6415, downstairs an HQ6946 which has an online registration posted somewhere.
            Did get replacement blades three or four years ago for both, worn out again unfortunately. The big problem with these is the socket connector is too loose, so cord tends to fall out while in use. Might not be an issue with the pricier models, not entirely sure though.
            Scalzi punches through with writing flaws? There would be me floored with a heavily punched chalk line all around! 😛
            AI is taking over at such a pace that anything we can imagine it to be adorned with is already old hat! AI driven ASCII art might still have some surprises though. 😛
            Got another pair of emails and a text message about a money request from someone on Paypal, can be a bit scary how they just allow all this stuff to get through to credulous clients. 😛

              Fade to grey is just the thing for the theme, lime-green, sky blue or cherry red much more of a challenge for an easy eye.
              BTW the top ribbon is the same as it was, it’s fine to leave it that way if that is what you wish. 🙂

                A rather irritating issue has cropped up with the HP, no usable mouse or keyboard at the UEFI. No-one is biting, hopefully something after posting a few more updates there?
                Edit: Yes! It has an accepted solution, cross-linked to a new thread. 🙂
                In the meantime, as W11 requires 32 GB on recovery drive (it has to be 32 GB not 31 or less), dug up an old 64 GB stick initialised 2016, from which there were errors reported over the years. The operation completed successfully, after which clicked Properties>Tools>Error Checking and it reported on the dialog that there were errors. After scanning there was:

                Windows successfully scanned the drive. No errors were found.

                A little voice is still saying “expect issues during recovery.” 😛

                  Good to hear. 🙂
                  Saw that mentioned on the news, pretty big storm then, did it affect all of Florida? over here, one to two feet usually results in floods. 😛

                    It’s safe to say there was an acute awareness of the two HDRs, even though a little voice piped up to say, “yes, play Oblivion with this on in windows, and you won’t have to worry about the HDR in the game settings.” Pixies have teamed up with goblins again. In any case, there’s another reason to skip the Windows HDR settings on the ViewSonic, is that the display renders as mush. This in general nowadays is of relevance to the potential user of a feature, that a mfg’s claims of that feature on a product is simply not enough evidence for that feature to be present and functional, the feature has to be certified by an external authority.
                    Blech. 😛

                      My preferred way is to defeat him with his own deck in his own game, however there could be unforessen consequences if he is a sore loser.
                      Else, ask him to provide specifics about what he sees in the deck as trashy, and what he thinks is a better alternative on each point raised. If he cannot or will not continue the conversation, either put on, or offer up one of these:
                      Mute mask
                      😛

                        Merlin’s name was actually Emrys, only used by Druids and diviners in the show.
                        Their reason for ethereal plots is that ghosts are of that composition, an idea that could have been conveyed in the film’s prologue, Carradine would have been the perfect choice. 🙂
                        Original Sin is not so much a film to watch as a film, but to play as a mood piece, the Cassanova voice of Banderas, the musical voice of Jolie amidst lilting and seductive Latin arrangements of guitar and strings. Costumery, set arrangements and actor dynamics are accentuated with nice camera work. Despite the very voluptuous Angelina in the intimate scenes, the 12% at RT is a thing, in that the events in the film don’t interrelate all that well, along with the incongruities – Jack Thompson’s American accent is a hoot. 😛
                        As Good as It Gets offers an intriguing interplay of disparate characters in a block in downtown Manhattan, film evolves nicely too, ending could have been condensed a little perhaps.

                          Looks much better! 🙂
                          Thought it might be worth throwing in a passing mention to the old LOTR TCG (not to be confused with the LOTR Card Game) in the off chance you had not seen it. There was quite an adverse reaction to the game at the time, hopefully The Players’ Council have made the game playing experience more palatable for the detractors.

                            Grease is always a problem, what was once tried here was to dip a hard med/small paintbrush into a cup containing hot water and a good squeeze of detergent concentrate, and holding the keyboard upside down, run the brush slowly around the keys. Solvents might be a bit risky. Keep keyboard upside down until dry, and clean up with a soft cloth steeped in methylated spirits.
                            Still use any of the four monitors from the old system – are they all 24″. Quite like 1440X900 on the 27″, depth enough without being too wishy washy. the integrated graphics doesn’t provide much support for sizing the viewport to the screen, so back to fiddling with the monitor controls. 😛

                              All things border is up to you entirely, the discussion pages present rather well at least, others may be still undergoing slow haemorrhage. 🙂

                                Looking so good, took a backup. 🙂
                                Looks like bbPress has its own CSS files in public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/assets/css and a choice of evergreen and mint in public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/styles, both similar to, but not quite matching the WP CSS file names.
                                The profile visibilities look nice as far as styles go, we’ll want to check their functionality (as well as Favorites, Mentions and Export Data) at some stage.

                                  Here’s hoping, did the WP default Editor ever work here at any time past? There’s still no warning of data loss when closing a tab with newly typed text for a post, which works with pages from some other builds, not sure about Joomla.
                                  In order to view the Litespeed logs, enable it through the Debug Settings tab at the top, doesn’t look all that appetizing though. 😛

                                    For whatever reason, the site logo block is missing the settings to add media. Not sure why :/

                                    The mod pointed out on the above query that the site logo is already in Settings, the coat of arms thingy, sorry. If it’s removed, will the block re-appear in the editor, – now the pressing concern of the minute.

                                      Haven’t seen that one, did see the remake which, although not boasting a particularly intricate plotline, was memorable enough.
                                      As a consequence, many of the innocent bystanders immediately dropped to the floor and egg-spired, no doubt. 😛

                                      It’s easy to see what is wrong with Hollow Man, notably the wonky script and the implementation of Kevin Bacon as the mad scientist gone off the rails. Not sure if anyone else could have done better – Danny DeVito anyone?
                                      Every one of those RT 26 points was well earned in the action sequences including the escape out of the compound at the end, the film perhaps deserving a few more points for the supporting cast.

                                      They’re re-running Merlin on FTA, second viewing here as well. it’s very good, albeit slightly hamstrung by the regulation 45 minute episode limit.
                                      When very young, read a translation of The Arthurian legend, can’t remember a thing of course, except perhaps a notion the actual stories were different from Merlin. Main similarities and differences are touched on here, no matter though, they are all cracking good stories!

                                          Playing that on Linux or Windows? As you know, Alt3rn1ty had some good tips at AFKMods, he has since moved to a better place, and they’re all now playing Starfield. 😛
                                          The VBForums account is back, just have to remember the reason for wanting to post there. 😛
                                          In case the second childhood comes early, Untitled Goose Game invites with dinky theme and gameplay, especially with that wonderful music. 🙂

                                            Pretty cool format, if I were to have one it would be something like Luke Warm Cucumber or Footloose Pedal. 😛
                                            Yeah back to it works, on many occasions it will come to me without encouragement, and by then without fail, other issues occur such as a sudden rush of lack of interest. 😛
                                            That’s a lovely unit, the lone commenter at the bottom remarked the actual price had an extra hundred pounds added on.
