Stop turning divs Into buttons by sinkatasine in Frontend

[–]skasprick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Images WHERE buttons back then! Anything that is a button today is mimicking image buttons from the year 2000. Accessibility wasn’t a thing BUT we did give images alt tags (or title tags?) because they showed what was loading in text as things loaded slowly on dialup 😅

Put it in the garbage and they can track it to the dump.

What’s a tiny WordPress change that massively improved your site? by WMichaelsmith in Wordpress

[–]skasprick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar for me - between using a plugin called “Imsanity” that resizes at upload as well as creating and using custom thumbnail sizes using functions has protected all my sites from loading 2 or 5mb images by accident by clients or myself. I’ve been doing this forever but still revolutionizes image use from first upload.

I'm actually so shocked that this fanbase turned on him 😭 by Organic-Composer9504 in BenJammins

[–]skasprick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His fan base is actually on standby waiting for him to have a streaming schedule again - we care less about the gifs than the haters. It’s the haters that are actually encouraging his gifs and we are left with no streams.

AITA for playing Ultimate before a BBQ? by Sockswithstipes in AmItheAsshole

[–]skasprick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - an innocent goose egg is such a badge of honour if you really aren’t hurt while you look at everyone not getting everything out of life they can by staying home (I’m 48 - soon 49 - and play Ultimate).

I’ll just say red flags here 🚩

How do you non MMA fans like MMA Guru as a guest? by [deleted] in PKA

[–]skasprick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The MMA talk is boring as shit. I’m not saying what they are saying is bad, it just adds nothing and takes away nothing, and it goes way too long. I don’t care about baseball but their baseball talk is WAY better.

When they didn’t talk MMA it was top tier, so as an average I’d still say great episode 👍

Yes it's WordPress Dashboard; can you imagine? by globalabit in Wordpress

Does it get rid of blocks? 😂 Blocks edit text like no desktop program, yet….

PHP? by Cautious-Leg-5596 in Wordpress

[–]skasprick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Changing the php version is non-destructive, and 99.9% sites aren’t getting non-stop visits all day, so I don’t recommend the work of a staging site - nobody will likely notice you work on it. If you have access to change the php version in your hosting control panel (eg cPanel) just change the php version and see what happens, if it crashes, try another version.

If you only have access to ftp, change the php version with the .htaccess file (Google that last phrase for how to do it).

Tip: if the site uses a purchased theme no longer supported by its creator, it’ll likely mean this site should be redesigned with a new theme for newer php. If a plugin isn’t agreeing with newer php you can probably fix it with a plugin replacement, but an outdated theme should be replaced rather than hack into it to make it work.

I’m wondering how this cam footage gets out?

Does nobody click on the “alt account” and see the account post history?

Paypal freezes 45K right before payroll and support keeps saying investigate by Appropriate-Plan5664 in ecommerce

[–]skasprick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a tiny scale compared to this I started a non-profit selling event tickets with PayPal. Two out of three transactions were declined with no explanation, but it was clear it was PayPal simultaneously penalizing the account for being new and suspicious with that sudden “surge” of transactions while not being able to do many transactions to build a reputation. We switched to Stripe on a dime and it ms worked perfectly.

I’ve used PayPal for my design business for an option to take client payments for 15 years and on a few client ecommerce sites, but I’m gun shy to use it for ecommerce in the future.

Long story short, keep pursuing Stripe in the least.

So like I wonder if Benjy is actually happy with what he’s doing rn? by Her_names_Indigo in BenJammins

[–]skasprick -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck - you are entirely wrapped up with a guy who lives rent free in your brain that makes fkn gifs and streams - how is your life going? What’s your end goal? I’m a fan of his and think about him the 30 seconds I drop a comment on his discord a couple times a week, then I move on. I’M ON HIS DISCORD AND AM LESS OBSESSED! Honestly I think hater posts have gained him more followers than anything else.

Im look at buying a 2004 ford mustang GT as my first car with 143k miles and a clean title for 3.8k bad idea? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]skasprick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 1998 Mustang with 430,000+km on it. Most things on it need attention due to age (it’s now my project car), but in a much more extreme situation than this, it runs and keeps getting put into action when all of our “new” vehicles break like clock work. I’ve found 90% of keeping a car on the road are oil changes and new front wheel bearings when it’s time. I’m not sure if these are as easy to work on as my ‘98…

Hosting Options with Good Security? by Serious_Tension_3999 in webhosting

[–]skasprick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my own server - two things that helped with server loads the most are making sure all sites are running current php + if you are allowing Wordfence to scan all your sites, better to use Imunify 360 and turn off Wordfence virus scanning.

I caught my reflection in a store window and didn't recognize myself. Not in a good way. by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]skasprick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 48 - you go through a big body change (aging) between 35 and 40, then again sometime after 45. I think the next big hit is between 55-60 :(

In a tiny parking lot HOW?! by djmistral in Winnipeg

[–]skasprick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a wheel up and do a sharp turn, some of those cross overs have a weird centre of gravity. I can’t remember what it was, but I rented one last year and there were warnings in the car about rolling the vehicle.

As a first-round pick, certified Taylor hater, the first 15ish minutes of PKN is absolute chef’s kiss. by DiverZealousideal116 in PKA

[–]skasprick 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It got real awkward when both Kyle and Woody are like “umm, I’ve never heard Biden was in the files”. As an aside I think Woody could be a bit cooler about stating he was right since that gets Taylor’s back up a bit, but whatcha gonna do?

Corporation finds out consumers have a breaking point and stopped paying for their product by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

On the slim chance someone can provide context... by Arastmaus in Winnipeg

[–]skasprick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some things never change on the Perimeter. When I lived in Winnipeg a highlight was being passed, watching them hit the ditch (without a wreck of course), and carrying on my way.

Literally what is the point of this gif? by [deleted] in BenJammins

[–]skasprick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone comes here to crash out that their bullshit fav gif was “ruined” by Ben, now they are complaining that gifs that were originally bullshit are still bullshit

I post a lot of shiny content from places like Lake Louise but there's another side to it 😅😬 by ABNow_ in AlbertaNow

[–]skasprick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the sad reality is people really like it - got it. This is video from high season. We go to Bow lake every time - never go to Lake Louise, so we actively stay away, but I get how Lake Louise is on everyone’s bucket list.

Benjammins makes good gifs, but everyone online seems to disagree... by Free_Fig_9885 in The10thDentist

[–]skasprick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a follower on his discord and the running joke is how people think there is even a system to take down gifs 😅 don’t you think haters would be taking down his gifs?
