best we can do is an option to disable crApple users... :)
It might be time for an upgrade. How are you able to navigate the rest of the web?
Give him a break, up until last week he was pulling on to the information superhighway with a Smith-Corona typewriter!
I'm just now breaking this baby in. I found a rubbermaid container just a little bigger than the mini I use as a positive pressure chamber. I put the mini in the container, cut a hole in the lid of the container, mounted two computer CPU fans blowing downward to the underside of the lid, and a rectangle 4 inch by 8 inch automotive air filter on top of the lid. I cut a 1 inch diameter hole on the side, through which all the cables run. So air is pulled through the filter, and blown down on top of the mini. The only escape hole is on the side where I have a little bit of string that waves around and shows me air is blowing out. Mini has stayed 99.999% dust and hair free for over a decade :)
Impressive engineering but odd.
I spent most all of the DOS and Windows 3.x days hand building my own PCs and can't tell you how many times I'd open a computer case and it's like someone emptied a vacuum bag in there. So back in 2011 I decided A) I'd get a mac instead of a dell Windows machine; and B) I'd make a dustproof case for it since it was so small, any dust buildup at all would be too much.
The mini and the case I made for it have been working like champs flawlessly. There are some apps, however, that have started to complain since my OS is out of date and can't be updated any further. I know I'll need to update, but every year I put it off means when I do get a new one, it'll be that much better. Maybe in I can pencil it in for 2026.
How ungrateful you are. Poal is 99.99% of the time super light. It even runs on browsers from the 90s (@Sporkulon will confirm).
Yes I can confirm, it is normally super light on the system. Like 5 1/4 inch floppy light. But those animated logos are going to set my CPU on fire! My browser now handles it so all 's well. I have a system update scheduled for 2026 and have discussed filling out the paperwork for the RFQ with my wife, who coincidentally is also the person with approval authority in this particular workflow.
It’s simple a SVG based CSS animation, and old browser that don’t support that will automatically fallback to an image of the original logo.
I only use them for special occasions (holidays and historical events).
- install firefox or a firefox related privacy browser
- right click / two finger click the poal icon
- block element
Thank you, is there an equivalent in chrome?
"I don't use chrome and neither should you. " I second this, but I think he forgot to mention install ublock origin add-on. If you were to do that I think you can also just block the element, since its a ublock feature not firefox. but really install firefox and ditch chrome.
I don't use chrome and neither should you.
That's probably true.
