DECwindows

Unblock 88.198.98.x
Actually, blocking of datacenter IPs is quite usual: there are no users in these ranges for whom proxying is the only way to access teh interwebs. Why do you ned to use your host as a proxy? Max Semenik (talk) 19:45, 2 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Who talked about proxies? I use my server for many practical and privacy reasons. I regularily use several different "Hot Spots" and other internet connections that run over unencrypted or poorly encrypted WLANs. So I just always use an encrypted connection to my server, and run all vital services (even my whole desktop, incl. browser) there, so I can access it from everywhere and the hot spot operators – and other customers in the same LAN – are unable to spy out my internet traffic, because that's not their business. (Or should not be).
 * Moreover the reason given for the block is discriminating. There is no "open proxy" on my host at all, and never was. If there is a general policy "we block datacenter IPs generally" in the en-WP the text in the box should be changed to point to this policy.

Those nbsp's
Sorry - I checked that on several different screen widths and saw no ugly line breaks. I'm "standing down". Jeh (talk) 09:09, 3 September 2015 (UTC)


 * No problem. You've seen my screenshots? So I can delete them now? :-) --RokerHRO (talk) 11:38, 3 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Or not, as you like. :) Jeh (talk) 05:31, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Optimizing PNG files
Your edit on one of my uploaded images: -zc1-9 -zm1-9 -zs0-3 -f0-5 -i0 →   32.07% decrease   Why do people create unoptimized PNG files? *sigh*

Because "some people" don't know about optimization (what it means or how to do it, though I presume it means compression) and have been admittedly lazy in researching same. That said, do you have a helpful instructive link re the basics? p.s. When I create a PNG file in MS PAINT, as far as I'm aware there is no optimization option in the PAINT toolset. Do I need to download a separate piece of s/w? Danke. --IHTS (talk) 03:30, 29 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Uuh… MS Paint. Okay, so Microsoft is still unable (or unwilling) to write proper software that creates PNG files with sensible compression. Not your fault.
 * There are many Open Source tools out there that do better. But if you insist of using MS Paint you might consider to use an external PNG optimizer / recompressor like pngcrush, optipng or … https://lmgtfy.app/?q=png+optimizer+windows
 * You also might consider reading Portable Network Graphics.
 * Have fun!
