I’d be a lot more inclined to trust the hugely complex yet ultimately human coder-inspired technology of AI if the far simpler MS Office (or is it Outlook, or MS365?) understood the difference between sending a verification code by text message and sending it to my WhatsApp account.

Does anyone on here work with race and medicine in the southern US in the early 20th century?
Niche, I know, but I came across something very weird in my late father's stuff that might be of interest.
Feel free to share.

Interesting. Just had to update password on work MS account, and apparently you can't use £ because it's non-ASCII/unprintable. A bit of a pain, as I use old car number plates as the basis and now I can't use any with a 3 in them.

So apparently knocking on her bedroom door to ask if she's in pain is not how I'm supposed to respnd to junior offspring rehearsing vocals for her school rockband.
Ah well, every day's a learning day.

Well you live and learn. Always enjoyed the light hearted romp that is Flash Gordon, and the gritty hard edges of Get Carter.
Never realised they were both directed by the same person…

Automattic has been working with the Internet Archive to develop a plugin to combat link rot, and it's a plugin I'd encourage you to install. As the plugin says: When a linked page disappears, the plugin helps preserve your user experience by redirecting visitors to a reliable archived version. It also works proactively by archiving your own posts every time they’re updated, creating a consistent backup of your content’s history. I've been doing this manually on my old archives, fixing broken links and tending the garden. But we can make it all automatic. 🙂
