(Quote) Using Linux Mint mostly. But yes, later Windows versions do have that sorted out quite decently out of the box if memory serves me correctly. Never used Mac - it's for the (wanna be) rich people. :)

For me, f.lux beats any dark mode and similar (tastes and eyes differ, so your preference may not be the same): https://justgetflux.com/

(Quote) To make matters even more complicated: even with a written request/boss-order/legal-dept.-approval, you may not be legally allowed to infringe a person's privacy - double-check with a competent lawyer.
-
(Quote) I see. Yes, makes sense. Even though the problems did occur after an update (i.e. I haven't changed anything else), sometimes it helps re-checking all the settings and excluding stuff from caching. Will see what LS support says (if anything,…

(Quote) Where, how? Edit: what are the consequences of that choice?

I'm using Windscribe - it works fine for what I need which is geoblocking avoidance, auto-redirect avoidance and static IP service, so nothing privacy-related :) - not that I think Windscribe is any worse in terms of privacy compared to most other…

Thanks for the heads up... fake @deank :)

If you make a summer host, please name it "Donna!" :) And make your own Linux distro for the servers, calling it the "Queen of" distro. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCtDAAPO-j4 ...there are three kinds of people in this wo…

(Quote) That was expected. @Mason is a marketing genius. In this case, he used some reversed psychology with a survey as a bait call for action... This forum is going places, le' me tell ya! :)

(Quote) It's usually at the bottom. (Image)

(Quote) Is it not normal for a person to support their country? Would they deserve kicking if they supported it? Should the same system be applied whenever one country attacks another country ("even" if it's the USA)? :)

WordPress.com - hands down N01 in terms of uptime and stability. Not my choice for the lack of freedom and prices, but hard to beat in terms of uptime. HostMantis comes second, of those I've used and tested. No idea whether their VPS hosting is any…

For those using a mobile phone with these, they are more mobile-friendly. So there's always a bright side. :)

And the new, soon to be "obligatory" (the "Paper lantern" is being deprecated), "Ur-anus..." erm, I mean "Jupiter" theme for the cPanel! (Image)

(Quote) For private YouTube videos, you have to manually add emails for every person authorized to view them. For unlisted YouTube videos, anyone can share a link and see them, even though the videos aren't listed (aren't visible) on the channel. I…

(Quote) Odysee (my channel) Allegedly free, open-source, censorship-free yada-yada-yada. My guess is: if it ever gains popularity, things will change drastically, very rapidly.
-
(Quote) Many people today think their filming wonders must be shown in 4K resolution. No reasonable explanation I can think of, but there you have it.

How can one not simply adore capitalism? :)
-
(Quote) I don't like ads bothering me at any time. On my website(s), I place ads manually, in areas around the content (sideline, bottom, top - before the articles). And, since I often use those sites as a reference, I make a point of using them wi…
-
As a creator of (highly questionable quality) YouTube content, I prefer getting some income from the ads or premium accounts. As a viewer, I prefer watching for free without any ads. Contradictions. :)

Hydro destroys eco-systems (rising the level of underground waters, and altering river eco-systems). Solar requires huge areas covered in those plates, along with a ton of batteries to store it during the night. Wind also requires huge areas covered…

That works as intended. Out of shear sportsmanship, to not put the high-end providers completely out of business, the low-end providers stage regular downtimes, late support ticket replies and once a month they get completely wasted while sorting t…

(Quote) Not 100% sure what you mean. "Plugged" as in "censored?" They listed some popular plugins that have problems. They noted the problems are fixed with patches (so no false alarms for the users who have updated, that's fair…
-
On the bright side, from what I could tell, the problems were fixed with updates. :)

(Quote) (Image) Sorry, couldn't resist. :) On a more serious note - it is an industry trend worth noting. Here's another example - Ocean WP + Cloudways: https://oceanwp.org/blog/partnering-with-cloudways/ Also, in terms of time ~ money, as @Mi…

Yes, as @Ympker and @willie have noted above, it's about making money, of course, with questionable benefits for an average LES member. Of course, being WordPress-related, it's good that @vyas shared the info here. This looks like an industry-wide…

(Quote) I asked on a WP for Business FB group about this. The consensus seems to be that they've done similar things before, "with good reasons," and that it's perfectly fine. Full support. I certainly had no idea until now that they (can…
