Yes, the settings are in hard pixels, not percentages, so it could have looked good your end.
The preference is light strumming over here. 🙂
It’s spot on, thanks. 🙂

Half the search box was hanging outside the sidebar in outer space, a bit like the monolith from 2001. 😛
Thanks, and sounds terrific with the CSS, especially when the drawbacks can be converted into drawcards. 🙂
These admin pages are not expanding to any width greater than half a browser page width of say 1200 pixels wide. Was that something that got fixed a while back, and was broken by an update?

[DeVaultSetter]

One thing slightly off since the changeover to blog, (if it wasn’t off already) is the page comments here.
Take the first one, a response to Patrick, the link is from “Submitted” on the right:

StearnVault Home

This appears to be exactly the same as the old static homepage, with a variation in the url string.

StearnVault Home

Right now, these are currently resident in limbo, wondering if there is a way to move them into the current threads, like the Welcome to StearnVault for example.

Just a small nondescript urn with a couple of small holes in it. Really have to upgrade, this caught the eye:

Yes it is, wasn’t aware Tolkein provided his own illustrations, aspects of which are recognizable in the movies.
In the local cafe, there was a copy of Nature, May 2024. Lots of detail in the research, commensurate with Scientific American in quality. Do you read all the articles?

Never screened any Sidaris over here, at least as far as the recollection goes, does sound a lot of fun. 🙂
Men is interesting, with a few nods to films – like the the Scissor-Hands of Conscience or The Shining. Early on there’s the feeling of something lightly amateurish about the delivery, but once you accept the sparseness of the sets and dialogue with the clean edges of light, shade and sound, it’s okay, and the buildup to the shock of the ending works well. While there is no pressing urge to view it here a second time, it remains a candidate for the recommended list. 🙂
Right now, streaming (Hieronymus ‘Harry’) Bosch, nothing too spectacular out of the park, enough for a home run all the same. Harry is much gentler than say DCI Matt Burke from Taggart or Sup. Dalziel from Dalziel and Pascoe, but he is not all sweetness and sunshine.
Gorky Park (do recall the Mad Magazine Satire but it wasn’t entitled Dorky Park, the name of a dance troupe later) had a diverse cast including Hurt, Dennehy, Marvin, and Richard Griffiths from Pie in the Sky. Golodkin looked like Alexei Sayle from The Young Ones – it couldn’t have been him – but it was – Stuff was a standout. 🙂

Thanks for all the work, it’s very much appreciated!
Added a new description to the Front Page, and fixed up (hopefully) the search button overlap.
Does that look okay on yours?

[DeVaultSetter]

Back in the day, it was fun using laminated packs after applying a little talc, when they became super slippery.
Thanks for the update, and yes, fat formans, do tell! 😛
On TV there’s replay of some old game reviews, the one of SteamWorld Quest: Hand Of Gilgamech was rather glowing compared to the link’s. Have you seen it? It’s a turn based RPG based on card play, with a diverse card base, favourites here.
The trading cards don’t come at a huge cost though. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Just the decoder, it’s hard on green, but is supposed to flash on activity. Problem is, there is no activity.
It’s just his, mine’s fine. 🙂 Given the absence of red lights, it’s hard to see how there is a fault in his modem though. 🙁

[DeVaultSetter]

Nice! There’s also the evergreen Shruggie, ¯_(ツ)_/¯, and some interesting alternatives:

Yes! Get it at Sourceforge! There’s a list of Norton inspired warez at Wikipedia, the “K” in Krusader was an inspired choice for sure!
Batch is an oldie but a goodie, as is PS and JS, subject is mentioned at vbforums as well, logged in there recently only to find the user account is bricked. 🙁

Nice. 🙂 Must confess that game has not been sampled here yet, it’s on the list. The forum, once abuzz with activity and excitement has of late settled into a long period of hush hush. 🙂

Weird how some posts at HP get removed without explanation, over at Intel, posted a CPU-Z link in a thread that got me banned altogether, took a little while for support to welcome us back in for the reply. Note, their permalinks don’t anchor in Edge, speaking of which, some unspeakable agents of doom have gone and removed section anchors in Wikipedia articles, go fig.

Weird issue with MS Learn pages when logged in, looking at that thread some countries have it fixed already while others continue on with the pain. 🙁

(WMIS) is down, hence all the Metadata staging failed errors in the event log. Not to be confused with WMI which will continue in favour of MI.

WMIC is going btw, would have looked good in Midnight Commander to be sure!

Passwords import from csv via Edge won’t allow a skip option for an “errant” record, so it will fail for the whole lot, unfortunately.

Congrats on the jars. Do the lids screw in – it’s not easy to tell. Might want a tight fit in case that frogs breath takes over the pantry. 😛
Confining plasmas magnetically might be the best shot, especially if dealing with dusty plasmas, which can exist at quite cool temperatures.

Nick Evanson knows all about benchmarks, too, did he once dream of microchip designs incorporating Mad Onions – characterized in branding by pungent smelling rings forming round and squeezing the processor cores, thus introducing “Silicon Doodles” to the next level! 😛
Marge appears to be a figure of veneration, and also of some power, as upon the closing of the lid, she will protect the resting body below, (if it happens to be Homer, it’ll be from further taps on the head with the soup ladle) 😛
The Stellarator looks rather pretty, certainly a thing for fusion power, although there are problems:

In a production design, the magnets would need to be protected from the 14.1 MeV neutrons being produced by the fusion reactions.

Really depends on what the local recycling center uses, sounds like if there is no rayon/nylon/polyester and the like they could biodegrade in soil given 10-15 years or so. Over here, worn items are generally given the toss though.

Right now burning well perfumed, though not quite intoxicating Sensing Spirit incense sticks. Rather strange they are not included in his shop list, but somewhere else, so obviously some arrangement was made re permissions. Very soothing. 🙂
Edit: Our perennial favourite the Atlas Obscura lists this gem of a basket, if it ever has to be relocated, there’ll be a special type of giant crane required for the pick-up. 😛

Not too terrific, neighbour and I have been tearing out fast greying strands of hair regarding his dropped internet. We’ve troubleshooted most things that can be troubleshot, bending and bursting the constraints of time left to us on this planet, leaving us worn and deflated. 🙁
Posted an enquiry at Whirlpool, hoping for quick solution from an expert techo. 🙂

This cropped up in Dashboard Site Health yesterday:

The scheduled event, “litespeed_task_lqip”, is late to run.

Must have run, as the alert has gone, seems as if the erros are related to WP ver 6.X.

[DeVaultSetter]

Sounds really good, so go right ahead, thanks.
The search on the front page gets the hits in a rather snazzy format, as opposed to the forum search. Both are useful and functional! 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

Thanks, it was rather pleasant, she had an old Cinema Paradiso DVD so we saw that. The first time the car got a frost in twenty years as it was parked outside the house rather than in the carport. 🙂
Drat those bugs, drat them all, and again, drat them once more. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Did happen to experience a brief dizzy spell today, thought of it more as a glitch of reality. 😛
Staying at Mum’s tomorrow night, so will be on the Tablet. 🙂

A LS & 2SB DVD was gifted by a family member for a birthday some time ago, probably ~2012. Replayed it later, in case something was missed. The earlier Lock, Stock and Barrel had nothing much in common other than the name, it does have Claude Akins however, ubiquitous in 50s, 60s and 70s movies and shows.
Remember seeing bits of Rift awhile back, tend to shy away from sub movies unless there’s a standout focal point in the description, funny there are not too many submarine-centric comedies, if ever one comes out, it’s odds on to be a hoot, if a crock instead, it won’t have too far to sink! 😛
Completed streaming Fargo Series 5, where it seems the writers have been commissioned to concoct a farrago of stuff with random set of weird events and characters in a neo-western format. Found it entertaining enough, and some surprising lines, especially from Tillman:

Well, you don’t get it, do you? This is the path I’m on. Starts at birth and it ends here. This isn’t a trip to Starbucks on the way to the office. This isn’t an idea. God cuts our names into bone and that’s who we become. He blows His holy trumpet and the walls fall down. You all came here to find Lot’s wife, but she’s already a pillar of salt and she ain’t turning back. So, go and live, or stay and die. It’s up to you.

The audio, sweeps, zooms and transitions in A Perfect Murder make it a joy to watch as the story unwinds. Disagree with the Rotten Tomatoes assessment, although the development in the last few minutes of the film came off a little underdone. Buddy Boy was terrific. 😛
The New Corporation is well put together and armed with a provoking tilt, it tends to promote the conclusions of the film makers through the us_versus_them angle, thus the idea of engaging in protest is the only way to change the fixture. (As an alternative, “common sense” has its attractions. 🙂 )
Although the basic premise of 222 is hokey, the visuals and effects are very slick, thus very easy on the eyes, the work from the lead actors was convincing, some of the supports wanted a second take though. Rotten Tomatoes took it down too much, more like a 6/10 here.
And wow, after seeing Dredd, and half expecting the detractors at RT rapping it up for the bomb squad again, pleasantly surprised to see that everyone liked it, as was the case here. Recommended. 🙂

Didn’t know CSS had the capability of determining whether a post box is next to a specified element, so quite useful then.
Wonder what would happen if we tried out Pip’s Disqus. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Nice category! 🙂
In that case, we’ll make them work, proving all those philistine uncategorised forums of the world as absolutely passé. 🙂
Looks like an issue, so added a concern to this recent query. 🙂

[DeVaultSetter]

It does, however can’t see why I ever got the notion the tags should work without enclosing ol, ul or menu tags when it isn’t really a good idea at all. 😛
