Excellent. This topic will be handy!

Ublock Origin is mostly for web browsers but it does have things like hosts files that may be handy. 🙂

As we now have this topic, here are some good software lists for finding something specific:

Very handy!

They’re fun but they do have a few loose ends they don’t tie up, such as items getting misplaced and then inexplicably showing up again. 😛

Yep! The films feature music by John Williams. They’re also going to reboot the films in the form of a TV series. A lot of people aren’t thrilled with it but I welcome it! Perhaps it’ll help them become more accurate as they won’t need to cut out as much. The films cut out most of the sequences featuring the classes as they don’t have much bearing on the overall plotline but add a lot to the literary atmosphere but they should work better in a TV show format. I think a Potter MMO would go over quite well as the message in the books is predominantly one of friendship. There’s a lot they could do with an MMO format. Legacy does look like fun, though!

The William books look fun! Will see if I can get them on the e-reader!

The more the merrier! May start one up on Zelda when I get the new one installed 🙂

Huh, interesting. Not sure of a good way to design it. You definitely want it easy to trigger for an emergency but that can also lead to issues like that. :/

Yikes! Yeah, copying like that isn’t cool. It’s okay if it’s been heavily inspired but copying the exact structure and using similar phrasing is going a bit far. 🙁

Slumber Party Massacre was a riot! Worth every minute! 😀

Here are the selectors for the forum block backgrounds:

#bbpress-forums div.odd, #bbpress-forums ul.odd, #bbpress-forums div.even, #bbpress-forums ul.even

Bit of an odd way to set it up but that’ll allow us to modify the transparency. Still working on it!

They used zebra striping and used a slightly different hex notation so it may look a bit weird in the CSS. Probably a good idea to check the theme editor first

And I’ve set the attachment setting to fixed so the background doesn’t scroll off the page. 🙂

Yeah, it would be nice if each topic would start the posts at 1 and go from there. Bit of an odd choice

[Spastic Hamburger]

Here you go!

There’s also this one that works in tandem with it 🙂

Definitely. Don’t want to break things unless we need to! 😛

Finally got my order in for the new Zelda. Going to take a while to download as the Switch doesn’t usually like to download stuff while you’re playing another game (it does sometimes but usually doesn’t) and I like to keep it unplugged when I’m not using it

We need a thread for music!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Oh, this reference may prove useful 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Certainly! I just use the base settings but it’s got a lot of extra features, too. 🙂

Sounds good 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

I’d like to know how we’re at 268 when we don’t have that many posts. 😛

Yeah, on TAL, it would have required more work than it was worth to reset the numbering after the several database imports so we decided against it. That didn’t stop us from considering it from time to time, though. 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

Hopefully they’ll get it worked on soon! There is an official plugin to add the previous post editor back into WordPress, maybe that will be helpful?

[Spastic Hamburger]

Caught Sleepaway Camp the other day and that was fun. Got Slumber Party Massacre on the docket for this weekend. It’s been on the watchlist for twenty years! 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

Yay! We’re back! Sorry! Google changed Chrome at some point so I was no longer able to override the block. Used to be under Advance but didn’t show up.

[Spastic Hamburger]

Crumpets!

Yeah, we’re going to need to ask for help again. Sorry, I’ve always been terrible at this sort of thing.

[Spastic Hamburger]

😀

Yep! I really do enjoy picking up my comic books in the shop. Sometimes we start up on general conversation regarding various plot points or even some of the social groups I try to organize. 🙂

Sorry! Meant Action Comics. The login session had reset while I was typing it up so I had to rush and type it back in as close as I could remember the words. Seems I forgot to finish the title 😛

Batman 900/135 was a lot of fun! Not much plot but it was a delightful romp through Batman history with The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, and even Adam West making appearances and more!

Looks interesting, will add it to the list! 2015 would be recent for most of the stuff I watch. I’m a big fan of the 80s for some reason. 😛

Got Alan Partridge on the watchlist! May sneak in a viewing today or the weekend!

Been reading the Potter books again and they differ from the films in some important ways. For instance, in the fourth story during the first task, the film has Harry avoiding magic as he’s feeling self-conscious about how he doesn’t belong in the tournament. In the book, however, he doesn’t really care and just starts right off by summoning the broom. The distinction is important as it greatly changes his characterization!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Hope it’s alright but I’ve enabled it. Feel free to disable it if I made an oopsie 🙂

It’s got a lot of settings so it’ll take some time to sort through and see how useful it’ll be. It may be that we don’t actually need it after all! 🙂

I’ve disabled the defaults setting for now. Care to try again? Let me know when finished so I can flip the setting back on 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Sure! 🙂

Sorry, been slow and haven’t had the chance to look much at it. Very busy!

I will try and copy over some of my posts from Teams in the meantime. Anything specific you’d like me to copy over? Will try to look at that stuff soon!

[Spastic Hamburger]

It’s not a theme problem (switched to a different theme and no luck) and the bbPress docs aren’t much help. They say that the advanced post editor should be in both the dashboard and the forums but they may have been written for an older version of WordPress :/

[Spastic Hamburger]

Got it on the porch! 😀 I do need to clean it up a bit. It got a bit muddy while being moved on account of the weather 😛

It only shot them about a foot but we did have fun chasing them down the hill. Blowing bubbles is an idea! One thought I was playing with was a small audio recording and having it go bang periodically but that may not go over all that well 😛

Vintage ads can be fun! My dad used to record a lot of stuff in the 80s and it was quite fun to see what they were advertising decades later. Lots of M&M ads around the holidays! 😛

Have you thought about a print subscription? They are able to fulfill international subscriptions but do charge a slight premium. It worked pretty well for me with Batman even though the issues got a bit banged up at times during shipping. Only reason I cancelled the subscription and went local was due to them having trouble filling the subscriptions during the pandemic but I was still able to get them at the local shop without issue.

I may drop Action for Power Girl but we shall see!
