Evertz is giving me a big middle finger. I went to log into my support account to download a manual, and it said my account didn&#39;t exist. So I figured, I haven&#39;t used it for a while, so perhaps that&#39;s why, so I&#39;ll just re-register. I re-register and it says &quot;pending moderator approval&quot;, but I didn&#39;t receive any further notifications. Checked a few days later, and the account has been deleted again. Tried a second time, same results. Ex...

Sigh. It looks like the backlighting on my main display is starting to go.

I finally was able to get 100% off of Google services. Really don&#39;t like the mail UI on the new service, and there are a few features I miss, but it is so relieving to not have AI crap being pushed on me from every angle.

It seems to be a trend for web sites to render perfectly, then a second later replace the contents with a blank screen and some text saying that &quot;something went wrong&quot;. Console says something about a regex error. Javascript was a huge mistake.

@FurryBeta If the screen completely dies, I&#39;ll look into this and see how hard it will be to get a replacement driver board. So far, it only flickers in intensity for the first 10 minutes after powering on. The hardest part now is that Ebay and other US-centric marketplaces are increasingly closed off due to all of the trade issues that are making it difficult or cost prohibitive to ship to Canada.

@FurryBeta I moved to a smaller provider in Canada (easymail.ca). I heard enough things about Proton that I wanted to avoid it, and I haven&#39;t looked at fastmail, so I can&#39;t comment on it. Before I was on gmail, I used to run a mail server in my closet on System 7, with Eudora accessing it via POP3. None of the ISPs will let you do this any more, and self-hosting mail is *really hard* now.

The MacOS X Finder is so full of bugs now that it is almost unusable. It&#39;s infuriating how far quality standards have fallen.

TFW a file format is so old that it includes an &quot;insert paper tape this way&quot; arrow as part of the header: Looks like this traces back to the PDP-11.
