      If there was ever a Contradiction Clinic, is there a way to make the guy form an argument as to why he prefers contradiction to argument, other than just having him denying the preference. πŸ˜›
      How would you describe a bunch of tear-jerking newsletters issued from a website?
      A sob-scription. πŸ™

        Looking at the tracking, looks like you got it pretty bad.

        Lovely, NASA’s GPM video is 609 mb, it’s only 15 seconds in duration, so some amazing resolution – 8k?
        The HoA will want to revise that, a tree can withstand quite a bludgeoning if given a good start and a bit of care.

            Took the liberty of editing the links to “open in new tab,” feel free to revert if doesn’t suit. Also get AI driven suggestions and corrections in the editor for trivial issues – do you see those?
            Otherwise, in between times, without a doubt! πŸ™‚
            This is where Disqus would look nice, if we can only keep it out of the other pages and forums.

              Is there an Aquatic centre/pool nearby? One offering aqua aerobics is a bonus! πŸ™‚
              Hang tight, sounds like more of a risk from lightning/flooding than wind though. πŸ™‚

                No, they mentioned code adjustment, so something related to server ID or locale?
                When they requested complete de-activation, we lost all the settings, so back on defaults. Which, from memory, were the same – no matter – a future milestone for them in any case. πŸ™‚

                  We are glad to know the issue is solved. As compensation for the inconvenience, I’ve added 1 month to your Security license.
                  Do you require the accounts active for further testing?
                  No, you can delete them.

                  All done. πŸ™‚

                    The unfiltered bright nebulous backdrop provides extra connotation, accentuated even further by mixing alternate paragraphs in the grey filter for example.
                    Unlike the forums, the url links won’t open in a new page, not a big deal for most folks though. πŸ™‚

                      Ah, they might have cancelled the entertainment complex at Orlando, we still have the Dopeameme Institute for Pleasure Research coming into Vegas, exclusively for those of us who are dopamine rush deprived!

                        The FTP issue looks to be some kind of issue with current access levels, looks like Cleantalk can get in now. πŸ™‚

                          Funny one, the suggested quick fix didn’t repair, so opened up a ticket.
                          Edit:

                          We would like to test it in your environment to understand why this problem occurs. Could you create a temporary user of your website backend with administrator rights plus a temporary FTP account and give us access to them? We will not touch anything else except our plugin, we guarantee the integrity and safety of your data.

                          Created temp accounts for testing, think they will be fine, … unless of course they uncover our secret plans for world domination. πŸ˜›

                            Used to keep boxes in case of returns, the general experience is if anything ended up faulty, the box had gone, as the unit had exceeded warranty anyway. πŸ˜›
                            Two items of concern with the HP which should be followed up with their support, the first being the W11 USB recovery drive left in the slot on boot. Grey/nothing screen on boot up, if the flash is disconnected the Wolf Security logo immediately shows and the machine consequently boots up.
                            Second is the video, experienced after hibernations and wakeups perhaps a week after a cold boot, the monitor on the display port won’t show on wakeup. Connect it to the other display port it’s there, unfortunately only half the time. It stays on for about 5 seconds, flicks off for 5 seconds, back on again for 5 seconds, then off again, ad infinitum, same if re-connected to the original DP port. Haven’t seen anything like this before – changing resolutions doesn’t change, a monitor sync issue most likely. πŸ™

                              The Woods is on the list, and did see the Changeling many years ago, classic horror, and enjoyed the soundtrack especially.
                              Often wondered what it would be like if everything we receive in content is presented in a Sin City format. Especially news feeds, events of the world delivered by shadowy silhouettes in fedoras with low hoarse voices consumed by passion/hate/revenge, while brandishing nameless weapons of unknown origin and deadly accuracy. Include stills and dialogue balloons for extra effect. πŸ™‚

                                Although KitchenAid are certainly expanding their design templates to accommodate an aesthetical integration in the kitchen decor, the right choice really depends on how the kitchen and contents are intended to look in the initial design phase.
                                Personally, all that is required from a mixer is reliability, efficiency and ease of use, – and a place to store it when done. Cleaning is also important, a self-cleaning mixer anyone?
                                One thing that cannot be avoided is noise, a good mixer always makes a good racket. πŸ˜›

                                    Next? Were you interested at all in styling up some new Blog pages, possibly featuring some of the special interest themes in for discussion back at Teams like Dreams, Disney, PokΓ©mon or even Arduino. A light, pictorial critique of NMS is another option, too. πŸ™‚

                                        In shelling the breeze, lets mention the collection of nice utilities on CodeProject, for example Intellifile is a shell replacement for explorer written in C.

                                          Had a look in the bug fixes for 6.6.2, nothing for the favicon, so hopefully scheduled for 6.7.
                                          Shall we take the plunge for 6.6.2?

                                            Oh, Falk is terrific in Colombo, too. Pencil in the Spielberg directed premiΓ¨re classic “Murder By the Book” along with “Suitable for Framing” and “Candidate for Crime” for superb entertainment. πŸ™‚
                                            Problem was, the original b/w Village/Children of the Damned movies set the damned bar too high. πŸ˜›
                                            Contrary to the criticisms of The Last Castle and a personal innate aversion to war flicks, it was entertaining enough not to invite any attention or even awareness to its flaws. Redford, despite many directorial flops directed himself rather well here and held the dynamism between the characters to keep the interest and tension alive. Point five of a recommendation. πŸ˜›
