If it's only for your own personal use there is probably little to worry about.

Welcome to the site, McMick.

Regarding your first point idea -- I think it's actually quite a good one.  I can imagine it might be especially nice idea for open source projects where there are multiple authors collaborating.
It might help people see that donation-based authors receive so much less than they might guess.
The only difficulty is that it imposes extra work on the developers (to track hours), so it would be nice to know if the extra work actually helped increase donations.
I have seen some open source sites use line counts as a proxy for time spent writing code, which is imperfect but has the advantage of not requiring actual tracking of time spent.

Is it slow on capturing the full screen, or only when capturing the active window?

Living Room / The quest for a completely silent PC
« Last post by mouser on May 15, 2018, 09:39 PM »
I’ve been trying to make my computers quieter for nearly three decades.  Custom liquid cooling loops, magnetically-stabilised fluid-dynamic bearings, acoustic dampeners, silicone shock absorbers, you name it.  Well, last week I finally managed to build a completely silent computer.  Without further ado…

The key thing to help you test is to see if only the first screenshot after a while is slow.. and if you do say 10 screenshots soon after that they are fast.  If that happens then you know the problem is related to SC needing to load stuff into memory after it has been unloaded.

When SC is slow to capture, is it then fast to do a similar capture after that first slow one?

When this happens, if you exit and restart SC does that help?

That's pretty clever.. But it seems to be not so big a risk to most people.
So first step, an attacker needs to get hold of an email encrypted TO you, that they want to be able to read.  Without that there is no harm they can do.

Security warning: eff.org says that you need to immediately disable and/or uninstall tools that automatically decrypt PGP-encrypted email.

This looks pretty serious.  Although they are not saying what the flaw is yet, the key seems to be if you have a mail program that AUTOMATICALLY decrypts pgp encrypted emails, somehow that can be hijacked.

A group of European security researchers have released a warning about a set of vulnerabilities affecting users of PGP and S/MIME. EFF has been in communication with the research team, and can confirm that these vulnerabilities pose an immediate risk to those using these tools for email communication, including the potential exposure of the contents of past messages.

The full details will be published in a paper on Tuesday at 07:00 AM UTC (3:00 AM Eastern, midnight Pacific). In order to reduce the short-term risk, we and the researchers have agreed to warn the wider PGP user community in advance of its full publication.

Our advice, which mirrors that of the researchers, is to immediately disable and/or uninstall tools that automatically decrypt PGP-encrypted email. Until the flaws described in the paper are more widely understood and fixed, users should arrange for the use of alternative end-to-end secure channels, such as Signal, and temporarily stop sending and especially reading PGP-encrypted email.

Sheesh.. You'l be able to start your own catering company soon..

Also.. The lack of a 2007 mug would give someone with OCD fits.

Perhaps we need to release a special edition 2007 mystery ghost mug..

I feel similarly. Even when one is not particularly invested in an area (at least at the current time) -- it is very nice to have someone focus on an area and share with us what they find interesting.

I can find and upload the last version I used.. Though note that my problem went away when I stopped using my LG monitor.

CHS Should remember your sorting and where you are in the grid -- so if you are at top of grid you should stay there next time you show the main window.
However there are a few options that might interfere with this -- the first and third option here.  Can you see how these are set for you?

Let me know if that helps.
