Was looking for a non-subscription no-login #TextExpander app that's a bit better than #iOS keyboard #TextReplacements.

I found #Espanso. Almost gave up on it. Had trouble getting started finding* base.yml on my MacBook and making sense of the instructions. By accident*, I got to the base.yml and got it to open in the text editor.

Many #opensource #apps I've encountered have documentation that assumes some techie knowledge. To me, it's like their basic* starts at intermediate*. 🙄 #NotATechie

#EducateMePlease about #LiteSpeedCache.

Is this something that's built into every* #WordPress installation? Could my WP site be affected?

I've been getting quite a number of attempted* #logins by losers with no honor or higher purpose and with nothing better to do with their sad lives.

So far I don't notice any weird signs of actual intrusion... But maybe I'm just too clueless to notice. 🧐 #NotATechie #websites #blogs

Help, please.

Anybody know if I can just remove or Drop these #Cerber entries in #phpMyAdmin? I had already removed the Cerber #plugin folder. Didn't solve my problems.

I was going to re-install #WordPress and saw this. Maybe all I need to do is remove these cerber stuff?

Wow. You've got a complicated setup. 😶 #NotATechie

I used to have Namecheap as my #webhost. Got sick of them and now my webhost is #CrazyDomains. I think they're Australian. My needs are simple, so I can't say if they'll meet your needs. I got their cheapest plan -- which is more than enough for li'l me.

No complaints so far. Oh, and they helped me make the move too. 👍

Does this mean Windows 11 might* run on an older, lower-spec'd computer too? Even if it's not in their list of compatible computers?

I was so pleased to finally "successfully" install* google-chrome in #SliTaz. Without errors.

But I can't find Chrome anywhere on the menu.

How the heck do I find and run #Chrome? 😖

Brought out my ancient #netbook. Again.

Though #xubuntu was pretty usable, it was still slow.

Well, this time I tried #SliTaz.

It. Is. Snappy!!! 😃
Huge* difference!

Now, my dilemma. I can't figure out how to install additional #apps. Getting errors with apt command, as if that command doesn't exist. Can't do anything with .deb files. Managed to extract a tar.xz but that's it. 🤷‍♀️

Having trouble finding answers. 😕
