Just curious, how does uBlock Origin Lite compare to regular uBlock Origin? I’ve heard from the Chrome crowd that it’s not as good as blocking ads due to the V3 limitations, but how’s the speed? I might consider it for lower-end hardware if it’s not too compromised.

Firefox implemented Manifest V3, but there are no plans to remove V2.

Are you old enough to remember Winmodems and NDISWrapper? There used to be some hardware that was so cheap that the Windows driver needed to do some of the basic work. They were never compatible with anything but Windows (and maybe 98 or XP at that). I’m sure there were some printers like that.

Combined with poor driver support early on, and a lack of standards (at least on the consumer end), and the need to have a separate PPD file for every make and model of printer, and printing used to be a mess. (It almost got bad again when Microsoft tried pushing their XPS format as a replacement for PostScript, PCL, PDF, and EPS, but that didn’t catch on.)

Apple buying CUPS (and hiring its lead developer) was great for the community. They got it working all but perfectly. I’ve never had a problem printing on Linux; HP, Brother, or otherwise.

FYI: the developer quit Apple and forked his project into OpenCUPS, but I haven’t tried that.

Hi possiblylinux127,

I have 200 years of experience with Microsoft Systems, and six children. Janie is just going to her first day of school today, and I’m buying her a Zune - a project I was heavily involved in and am proud of the commercial success that it was.

I have extensively worked on GPO as a developer, engineer, architect, project manager, lead coffee run guy and support officer. It is, like all our products, perfect and would never experience any issue itself, it is always user error.

I am sorry to hear you are having a GPO permissions issue. Before I tell you the solution, might I suggest you purchase the Microsoft Advanced GPO Support® or the Microsoft Expert (24/7) Support® support packages. We are currently throwing in a special on our 1hr response, 8 week resolution SLAs at the moment for only an additional $8,999 USD! Here are a few links:

Microsoft Advanced GPO Support®

Microsoft Expert (24/7) Support®

Your solution can be found below, and is guaranteed to fix the issue:

1. Open Start.

2. Search for Command Prompt, right-click the top result, and select the Run as administrator option.Type the following command to repair the Windows system files and press Enter:

3. sfc /scannow

I would greatly appreciate it if you could click on Mark As Answered if this resolved your GPO problem. Janie really needs that Zune.

That’s not a full version of Windows and some apps won’t run. But many things do, and it’s come in handy many times.

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up. Switching to KeePassXC-full when it becomes available.

Sadly. Now, though, Mozilla has instructions you can follow to return to their PPA.
