FYI, We have passed all major change tests and are ready well ahead of schedule. This morning was another test hence why you may have noticed the update/outage took a little longer then normal.

May I ask if there’s any chance that the new batch will include the flag of my homeworld?

Ain’t nobody really believes I’m human, anyway, so might as well stop pretending…

Didn’t know Uranus had a flag …
Does this mean Pluto has a half flag?

What you say?

Pluto gets a pennant.

Pluto says she don’t need no stinking flag.

Y’all didn’t want her, so she’s throwing in with us.

First, thanks to @Pepper_Thine_Angus for the updates and transparency.

You all keep coming up with memories for me. I must be getting old.

We did some work for a local planetarium, we actually have done work for many of them, even one at sea.

On this local one, we did a wall size display of the solar system. They had a problem with abrasion at the bottom few feet of it. I say, “Let me come up and see what is happening.”

I watched for a while when the morning school tours came through. Found the problem. Over 90% of the kids would jump up and “Slap Uranus” their feet would hit, bounce and scrape the wall.

We did a replacement with a vandal proof surface. After all everyone has one.

I have all the options on my iPad / Safari, and on my other laptop / Firefox: but my primary laptop/ Firefox only offers the :heart: . Same version of Windows and Firefox on both laptops. Something different is hiding somewhere.

It likely is my FF installation, since Chrome works. On rare occasion I open it to give a better response than a :heart:

Ever so often, we do a fresh install of FF … as we have seen it have little glitches after build upon build upon build.

One of the many reasons why our workstations are kitted with ‘portable’ rather than ‘installed’ browser iterations, which largely eliminates a slew of issues arising from conflicts with the OS’ ‘native’ browser.

Can a basic user do this or does it require someone with your vast knowledge, experience, and ability?

Absolutely - portable iterations are available to the general public, and require few special skills to deploy; one need not be a Systems Administrator to use them effectively.

A handy repository for ‘portable’ versions is SourceForge (https://sourceforge.net/).
