Here's a huge gallery of programming fonts, together with pros and cons of each.That's the same link I posted in the post right before yours?

can you elaborate on what you had in mind for me to add?-mouser (September 02, 2015, 08:44 AM)
...As someone who did install it, it's no different that what you have in the G software. You can install the G930 without installing the complete gaming bit, but the gaming bit integrates it in if you install that.

Yes, that probably helps to explain it.
The G930 headset software switches the headset off after X (approx 10 or so) minutes of continuously having detected no sound input.
The tweak that @Deozaan describes is to the file Device_Manifest.xml, which is apparently set by default to switch off the headset after a specific period of time (15 mins.). What an annoying setting! - but I would presume it's a mistake (human error).
It seems that the file Device_Manifest.xml is probably installed by the gaming software (which I haven't installed).-IainB (September 01, 2015, 08:44 PM)
Thanks for the warningIt's a different area, which is the reason they suggest having different keys with different users. I have a key that I use for all of my backups that has only rights to the s3 bucket. That one doesn't have two factor. But if they get in, the only thing they can do is write to my backup bucket. It doesn't even have the rights to delete. Just add.
For the casual user -- just doing simple backup -- this seems to make Amazon S3 no longer worthwhile.
I presume that my automatic backups to S3 would no longer work with two-factor authentication.-tomos (September 01, 2015, 11:57 AM)
See my reply on the thread -- sorry for the confusion -- I added the image so that I could blog it. I do that sometimes when I blog a post -- usually I leave a note in the "last edited by" line but i forgot this time. Sorry for the confusion.-mouser (September 01, 2015, 01:47 PM)
You can get them dirt cheap here (amazon.de), but the equivalent seems to be difficult to find on amazon.comNot at all. There are many on amazon... just look up "carbon steel frying pans". The one I have is from a local store, but I can also recommend these products that work well on them:-tomos (September 01, 2015, 11:38 AM)

EDIT2// sorry wraith - I was confused by your links to cast-iron related products - yes, a search for "carbon steel frying pans" will get the same pans. //EDIT2
the ones I'm using are called crepe or omelette pans here - they are not cast iron - they have a relatively thin base and heat quickly (easy to overheat though).-tomos (September 01, 2015, 12:01 PM)
But I was including those as they are really good on the carbon steel, so I was recommending them as you use them. @Deozaan: That's odd. Maybe you are not using the latest Logitech G930 software? I don't have any file such as Device_Manifest.xml in any directory, related to G930 or otherwise. So I guess it's the Logitech gaming software that has this, not the standard G930 software. I don't have the gaming software installed.-IainB (August 26, 2015, 07:23 AM)
I didn't know there was a difference. Maybe I only have the gaming software installed and not the... uh... other software.-Deozaan (September 01, 2015, 12:26 PM)

And Mouser has suggested an alternate page with even more stuff, but somehow that extra page "blows my info capacity fuse" and I can't look at it often.-TaoPhoenix (September 01, 2015, 09:22 AM)Is it really better than the recent topics page: https://www.donation...x.php?action=rtopics
Do you want me to create a new standalone page similar to the list on the main page, but with more entries (or larger font)?-mouser (September 01, 2015, 10:36 AM)
As Tao said above, the recent topics page ends up being a bit too much to take in in one glance. The beauty of the Info Center is that it's small and concise, so a quick look gives an idea of the amount of activity that had taken place and whether there is anything worth checking out further.
The current layout already requires a lot less scrolling, so that's an improvement. Personally I'd just prefer the box at the very top, so landing on the main page immediately tells the visitor what's been happening, without the need to scroll or click on another page.-dr_andus (September 01, 2015, 11:03 AM)
Can you try something for me -- if you change some settings and then manually exit the program, and then restart it -- does it save the settings then?
In other words, is it only failing to save changes when the computer reboots, or even if you manually exit the program and restart.-mouser (September 01, 2015, 12:55 AM)
Ok for all you Info Center addicts: that section is good now yeah?-mouser (September 01, 2015, 04:17 AM)
RSS is alive, yesThanks for that! Looks even slimmer than The Old Reader! But, with depending on donations and what has historically happened (RSS is a lot more resource intensive than people think, so takes more server resources than one would think), I'm not sure about switching over.
After Google Reader died, I looked around and settled with commafeed. All my feeds work and am happy with the clean and lean interface.

I've modified the Image button to explain better how to use the inline attachment feature, and removed the button from the Quick Reply bbc editor, since there is no way to attach files from the quick reply editor.
As has been discussed above, my intent for this button is largely to serve as help for those who don't yet know how our inline attached images work -- and therefore it is mainly about explaining to the user how to attach an image and refer to it.
As deozaan pointed out above, if you want to quickly insert an inline image you can use the new button down by the Attach Choose File buttons. So there are solutions both for newbies and advanced users.-mouser (August 31, 2015, 04:59 PM)
