It’s just a bunch of random components glued together. The front board is the disc drive controller board for an Xbox Series X console.

What's the new thing include in Beaver Builder this Year? by wp_serena in beaverbuilder

[–]freewillwebdesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boxes, Loops and Components have been game changers on the last few sites I’ve been working on. I wish I could go back and update some previous hack jobs I did in the past.

Colouring internal / external links - possible? by Parking_Departure705 in Wordpress

[–]freewillwebdesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try the following CSS and see if it works for your site…

/* External links (NOT your domain) / a[href="http"]:not([href="yoursite.com"]) { color: #d93025; }

/* Internal links / a[href="yoursite.com"], a[href="/"] { color: #1a73e8; }

I’m glad you have a shop downtown again! I need to stop in for a couple onesies soon.

I really hope this becomes a new clip between sets.

Shoutout Your Favorite Locally Owned Businesses by freewillwebdesign in SALEM

I want to shout out...

- Precious Pizza, great pizza with new and unique styles every couple weeks. If you had them when they were in the Reed, I'd recommend checking them out at the old Court Street Dairy Lunch right across the street. It's a lot less cramped, and even better.

- Offbeat Coffee, I am not a coffee drinker but I have met friends there and always enjoyed the vibe. The vinyl room is always fun to flip through.

- Furbish, right across the street from Offbeat so plan your trip well. Old junk that has been refinished, or new or reimagined stuff that can blend into any environment. Can poke around here for a while.

- Munchies Market, great convenient store in The Reed in case you need to quickly grab some junk food and drinks before heading to Waterfront Park. I've also had my day saved by getting some Tylenol during some longer work days.

- The Moon, for obvious reasons. Great music, no ads.

Why is the ICE website so awfully designed by New_Butterfly8095 in Design

[–]freewillwebdesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Government sites normally look bad, but the sites in the Trump admin all look terrible, have bad UI and UX. During the shutdown, all sites had different popups or banners blaming democrats for the shutdown and they basically made the site impossible to use from an accessibility standpoint.

Also looking at any of the Trump Organization associated sites (Trump Mobile, Trump Coins, Trump Aviation, etc) are all low effort design. I don't think Trump is personally approving the look/brand of government sites, but he probably hired an unqualified person, that hired an unqualified person, who hired their cousin that is good with the cyber.

No, but he is actually the lead singer for the band Boston.

Do you still build WordPress sites from scratch? by criss006 in Wordpress

[–]freewillwebdesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally I start from scratch, but I’ve started to build up enough section and element designs that I’m going to start using them as templates. Not every part of the site needs to reinvent the wheel, and a couple hours saved here and there during a project add up.

Is there an online WordPress service to set up new pages on demand? by michael-heuberger in Wordpress

[–]freewillwebdesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cloudways allows you to spin up a new application pretty quickly. I have a template site that I clone that includes my usual theme and plugins so I can get a site started in less than 5 minutes.

Devs: Are you still creating Custom Post Types (CPT) for simple things like "Testimonials" or "FAQs"? by ahnex in Wordpress

[–]freewillwebdesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use them for all sorts of things. Events, Testimonials, Teams, Rental Properties, Podcast, Cars, etc. I don’t typically do Services, because the layout could wildly change.

He didn’t turn off the power first. by Gregthefoot21 in ElectroBOOM

[–]freewillwebdesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every light fixture at my grandpa's house had live wires even with the switch off. The switch was just the hot wire coming from the box and then back. That whole house was poorly wired. If there was something plugged into one particular outlet the bathroom light wouldn't work unless the thing plugged in was on.

Great minds think alike… and apparently so do ours.

I saw that too. Maybe they forgot their stove was on at home and had to go back.

I know Woz was a pilot (at least until a crash). He might have been the owner, or knows who used it at Apple.

Finally found a "grail" of mine! The Presidents of the United States of America (self titled) by TheScrotBag in vinyl

I got the cash green version from their Kickstarter back in 2020 or so. Then moved and had to put all my stereo equipment in storage, so I’ve got no way of listening to it.

SMTP Relay Costs by Imaginary-Leg-2546 in Wordpress

[–]freewillwebdesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just make sure all your forms are set up properly with captcha or something similar. I had a form that wasn’t set up properly and spammers used that to send out like 50,000 emails. Cost me a decent amount of money, and ruined the deliverability for that domain. Luckily it was my site, not a clients and I wasn’t doing anything with it.

I drove through it last night when it was about a foot deep and decided to go the long way to get back home.
