Re: Average forum topic

My 2 cents. Gramps Clarity is who Gramps Clarity is. Gramps Clarity does what Gramps Clarity does. If you don't like or don't agree with what Gramps posts, why not just move along and ignore it? (the way that Gramps sometimes - but not always - ignores my posts to him too). I have not seen any of ...

Re: Wireless mouse recommendations?

... but I’d consider a simple wireless mouse that uses a USB dongle. Any non-BT Logitech mouse would do just fine. M1xx, M2xx, M3xx all works great. In fact, almost any mouse regardless of the brand - as long as they're regular wireless (or wired) mouse, would do just fine. Avoid MS Mouse, they h ...

Ah, I see! I wonder the need to post two separate threads for the same issue, but that's okay, I do that too sometimes ^_^

Since there are so many versions of Slacko floating around (⌒_⌒;) do you think you can upload the script that you personally use, here, for others to look at, and perhaps, fix?

But this Intel "standardization" also caught my eye.

Err ... I'm a bit confused. The article talks about "specification". I though "specification" is not the same as "standardization", or is it one of my slow moments again? :lol:

Re: ISOs can be opened - Can IMGs be opened, similarly?

The problem with .IMG is that they can represent anything, not necessarily a filesystem image. Whereas .ISO always means a CD/DVD image. To make it work, one has to detect what's inside the .IMG and then act accordingly. For example, Jafadmin 's guide, above, won't work if the .IMG is a disk image ...

Re: When did most browsers start supporting HTTPS?

HTTPS is a very old technology from late 1990s ... and it has evolved since then (addition of new ciphers, retirement of old ciphers, etc - this, among other things is what stops old web browsers from being able to connect to websites when using HTTPS). But the usage of HTTPS was entirely optional ...
