Just had my yearly car maintenance at the local VW shop. They’ve started passing on the credit card processing fees to the customer. It’s only like 3 or 4%, but it made me use a debit card instead of a CC. Guess that’s where we’re at now.

I get the sense that a lot of commenters here never had an openmailbox dot org experience.

How do you write an article like this without mentioning Tommy Tallarico? 😆

- Comment on Microsoft extolling the benefits of cloud storage in their Office save dialog 1 month ago:
I hear you, though I think this is less about education and more about getting folks to fork over $9.99 a month. Like so many others, I’ve a long frustrating relationship with Microsoft. They’re literally the largest company in world atm and they just keep laying off people. I don’t hate them quite as much as EA or Comcast, but it’s getting pretty close.

Holy cow. Thank you! Didn’t know that was there. ❤️

I can remember around 1999-2000 if you clicked the wrong thing in IE you’d get 50 popup windows with ads for porn. At least that’s behind us.

I think you called this, or at least you came closest. See edit #3 in post.

That’s a good question. Usually I will delete from my viewing history when I don’t want recommendations but it may work differently with shorts. The YT app has an incognito mode, but I think you will get ads (even if you pay for no ads) while it is on.

I apologize unreservedly if I misread your tone. No, I wanted to see what resolutions you showed available for the video. This could just be a weird YouTube issue. Maybe an error happened on their end when they were generating the various files. I checked this morning and it showed the same two pitiful resolutions when I tried to play on my phone. The real mystery is how it got 14k views in this state. I watch HDR content to enjoy my TV, but HDR on a postage stamp ain’t it.

Yes, I am obviously the problem with my inferior equipment and stock software. By all means, show us how it is done. youtu.be/oMMf_K_P-no

She really is. She has the radiance of youth and fantastic muscle tone. Long may she lumberjack. 🫡
- Comment on YouTube needs more potato 2 months ago:
First time it’s happened to me but I’ll take your word for it. As of tonight, it’s been up for two days and has 14k views. I figured it was either something transient or YT was applying some traffic management during peak demand.
- Comment on YouTube needs more potato 2 months ago:
I think it was posted within the last week. I remember the HDR processing wasn’t done processing the first time I tried to watch it. Would I be complaining about the resolution of a video from 2007?

Wow. I don’t remember having a board-mount retention mechanism for a CPU cooler before like LGA 775, but maybe such a thing existed for socket 7. Are there four holes in a rectangle around the socket?

Honestly, it’s fine. I’d do just about anything to avoid physically going to the DMV.
- Comment on Adobe putting spam in notification tray on Windows 2 months ago:
It’s more to do with workflow for me. If I close the wrong Firefox window I could lose my session with 10k tabs. 😆
I know there’s ways to recover but last time I really considered it I found it more comfortable to have a separate app for PDFs. Do what you feel. ✌️
BTW I don’t work for FoxIt nor has any money changed hands between me and them. It’s just what I wound up using circa 2015.
