Hey James, anyway to get editing files and uploading images, to fresh changes immediately, rather than wait for a long time? Makes editing and seeing changes way too slow. I want the host server to reflect changes immediately. Editing process wraps text poorly, and hard returns not recognized. No color coding.

But hey, it works and I am so happy. Thanks for the heads up.

A close up of the thermal flu part, the glass is reflecting the iron. The sun heats the air inside the glass pulling less warmer air in and allowing hotter air to escape (hot air rises). This causes all the hot air in the kitchen cavity to be extracted.

The lid above is bolted 3 cms off the thermal column, allowing hotter air to escape. The inside chamber is painted high temperature black, to help absorb heat.

My old Lenova Laptop died. The Hardly Normal techo saleperson got upset with me and walked off. I must be a hard customer. So all you techo wizards out there some questions….

(1) Can a Android phone get malware or not, when you go Internet banking, I told him it is near impossible for viruses to harm an Android phone….and it you bothered to make a malware virus it could not do much for the attacker, on a unix based system with secure banking? Am I write, or is my techo salesman right?

(2) Windows 11 S version (simplified version) cannot and will not allow executable file packages to unpack on your C drive? Wow, why bother having a computer like this?
