How do you get ublock to work in chrome after the update? I tried a fix I found here but it resets every time I restart the browser

Use ungoogled-chromium (or Firefox).

This is super slick. I remember spending hours maybe days trying to make MRTG or rrdtool graphs look like these.

Great job, this is kid tested and approved. My 12yo son, who plays a lot of FPS games discovered how bad he is using the trackpad on my MacBook Pro. It was a lot of fun seeing him as frustrated at the laughing dog as I was in 1986 on my NES.

This is Trump playing chess. ByteDance, Greenland, The Gulf of Mexico, Panama Canal- All this, and he's not even President yet. It's all part of a bigger picture and a bigger plan with sizable levers. Some love this, others find it terrifying.

:eyes: Did it actually keep all existing apps? I ask because I've seen a similar feature in the past that said it would keep apps after a fresh install, but only apps downloaded through the Microsoft Store. Which for me works out to... one, maybe two total. It'd be great to do a fresh install without removing all the others!

I believe it does not touch HKLM\SOFTWARE or HKCU\SOFTWARE. But the machine I fixed a couple weeks ago had all the apps from the windows store & third party apps working fine. :shrug: I use macos & debian for my daily drivers.

This is sort-of an existing feature since Windows 10. You can download the latest Windows 10 (or 11) media creation tool and create a USB. Click Setup.exe, and even if it's the same build of Windows, you can reinstall it, keeping all existing apps and data. This will effectively reinstall the existing OS, even fixing horribly broken installs (given the user profile isn't also corrupt). I did it a few weeks ago & helped a student to get through finals.

Why is the date on this article 5-months ago? (OCT 18, 2022) Is this really a new feature?

I'm not 100% sure what the destination platform was that was only 20% the AWS cost. Digital Ocean? A "myriad of other SaaS platforms"? Self-hosted in a colo datacenter somewhere? How does this newer solution scale? What are the intangible costs, and are there additional staff considerations? Do you answer the pager at 2AM when a physical piece of hardware goes down?
