I thought about making a Firefox extension to make the 'New Tab' page use my links URL, but I didn't really have the time. Turns out more than one already exists so I have a shiny new 'New Tab' page.
Nothin'. I just wanted you to face me so she could get behind ya.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh cool, Gud.

I'm not sure this is the right thread to ask in, but does anyone know of a cross cut shredder that can handle all the junk mail I get with stickers on the back like address labels? I ruined my last one that way.

Where do the kids buy their domain names from these days?

I use GoDaddy, but more to have all my domains in one place than for any particular reason. It works fine, but they try to upsell you like crazy during the checkout process.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I use Namecheap (note: talking about domain registration only, not hosting). They're also big with the upsell, but I find the interface easier to get through than GD; mostly, though, it's about the domains in one place thing.

I've used ICDSoft for about forever. They have always been very helpful with various technical complications. We use them for our patient portal sites for medical practices so setting up super secure stuff was important.
eta: I checked and we started with them in 2003.

Is anyone familiar with the brand TCL for TVs? Are they any good?

Fired up my Windows VM to run one of my only-works-on-Windows utilities. It immediately started updating. Eight hours later, it's still updating.

SJ they seem to be fine. TCL is a Chinese brand that is new to the US market, they only entered in 2013. They are growing the brand and mainly marketing through Amazon. Lots of features and low prices. The image quality gets decent ratings.
I've got a preference for Samsung panels, but you'll pay a bit more for them. I've just used them for years at home and on installations and they tend to live a pretty long life. The 47" LCD that Pix and I have is a Samsung that is now 13 years old and it's still going strong.
