Late response but as of this moment I see all comments with a "7 days ago" stamp. Not sure what you were seeing, but anyhow, thanks for your contributions to the thread.
Thanks. Yeah, that’s good to know that there’s nothing shady going on with the domains. It does seem very inexpensive when you factor in the domain and hosting, so I was curious if there’s any drawbacks.
It's extremely expensive. At $17 or $21 a month which works out to $250 a year you could go to a million other places. For $5 dollars a month wordpress will include a domain and 6 gigs. Hostinger is $2.99 with domain.
Good point about the files. Wix is a walled garden.
But cost wise, $20 a month is nothing. The first time they run into a WordPress security, theme, or extension issue, they'll spend more than a year's worth of Wix hosting to hire a dev to fix it.
Well, Wix isn't really file-based (to the user's eye). They're probably just a bunch of entries in a database. It's more that Wix doesn't offer any sort of easy export to a standard format.
Editing in Wix is kinda like Dreamweaver was in the old days, a bunch of WYSIWYG widgets and building blocks you drag around on a virtual canvas.
If they wanted to, they could probably offer a static HTML export of the rendered pages, but as far as I know, they don't.
Thats fake news you CAN move away from wix for one and second of all in terms of cost it is pricier than other platforms but they have sooo many integrations that you would end up buying plugins for anyways on wordpress…
I solved it but I have no idea why. The success modal blocks the board and I can’t even see what I’ve done right. It thinks “CG” is a word? Is that correct? I don’t seem to follow what the letters are supposed to accomplish here?
Neat list but I’m confused: Why do many of the words on the left use what appears to be a zero character for the letter “O”. I understand why the zeroes are on the right, they just seem out of place on the left. Some of the words (e.g. GLOBS) use a regular letter O but some seem to use a zero (0) (e.g GL0SS)?
When I was growing up, my family used my mom's college typewriter, which did not have numeral 1 or 0 keys. Instead, you typed a lowercase L and an uppercase O. It was one of the typing habits, and you didn't even think about it.
When she took a computer programming class, around 1979, the terminals had all of the numerals, and of course she was constantly mixing them up, causing errors. A year later she became the teacher of that class, and completed the requirements for a CS major by staying a semester ahead of her students for a few years. She always reminded her students: "Computers are stupid. They will do exactly what you tell them."
The typewriter that I got for college had all of the numbers. Of course I used it for about a year before ditching it for a word processor. But everybody kept an old typewriter around for many years after that, because you might need one for filling out a form.
I obviously cannot vouch for the safety of this extension, but I'll just post this quote from the VS Code docs:
> The Marketplace runs a virus scan on each extension package that's published to ensure its safety. The virus scan is run for each new extension and for each extension update. Until the scan is all clear, the extension won't be published in the Marketplace for public usage.
> A thoughtful production team could add a "spoiler block" to the ending of short matches
Yes, that's why I recommended in the article:
> Events that livestream sports or games where the result can be strongly implied by the video duration could append empty livestream time to all their videos.
And after writing the article, I was told by a friend that when AVP streams on their own website, they do in fact disguise the results with extra streaming time. So it does happen, but it would be nice if a large platform like YouTube took certain measures by default on certain types of videos.
I set up mail rules, or filters, that look for the content that appears in the subject line of the DMARC emails, and I just auto delete them using the rules. I use Thunderbird on Windows so you’d have to figure it out for your own mail client.
Haha, I’m definitely more of an early Weezer lover, but I find it sad how unappreciated the Green Album is. Might be their best melodies, but the overall vibe is not as good as Pinkerton (especially without Matt Sharp).
