I was perusing some items in a Target store one day, when I thought I would see if they carried in their inventory a mouse pad. I found in their mice and keyboards section a simple mouse pad. You see I am a real world computer technician, that earns a living assisting end users with computer and technology related problems.
I am not one of those condescending Youtube technology shills, that talk more about politics, then helping people learn and or fix their information technology problems. I found a Handstands basic mouse pad for $2.99. This mouse pad is not very thick.
If you are looking for a boom a rang that also can be used as a mouse pad, this one probably is not the right choice. Anyways, this mouse pad was all I needed. I work on a third party website where I need to have more precise mouse movements.
I have not purchased a mouse pad in decades. No joke. However, I have to be able to point and click my mouse more precisely.
Optical mice are usually pretty accurate on flat surfaces. For example granite, wood, kitchen counters, tables, etc. I was pleasantly surprised to find this Handstands Basic Mouse Pad at Target of all stores.
Also, the price at $2.99 is appropriate, at least according to my wallet standards. This mouse pad is a petroleum based product. It is large enough for a Logitech gaming mouse I have.
I could not find this mouse pad on Handstands’ official website. Also, I could not find it listed on Target.com, even though I was looking in this same Target for a different product months later, and saw the same mouse pad in their inventory. Interestingly enough I found this Handstands basic mouse pad at Microcenter.com, for the exact same fucking price, $2.99.
If you just need a basic mouse pad because you are traveling, staying in a hotel, or in a recreational vehicle, then this Handstands basic mouse pad might work for you. This mouse pad is not very thick. Way less then an inch thick.
However, I have used it for months now, and it gets my job done, pun intended.
Handstands Basic Mouse Pad – Video Transcript
00:08 so very quickly this is a quick video 00:11 about a mouse pad that i purchased at 00:13 target i don’t know why the i came 00:16 back to youtube 00:17 and i’m making videos again i guess i’m 00:19 still mentally ill 00:20 as a computer technician that gets 00:23 yelled at and threatened at and those 00:24 are then that’s true 00:26 don’t ever go into this kind of 00:29 you know career i wouldn’t call this a 00:32 career 00:33 if you’re a computer if you’re thinking 00:34 about entering the information 00:36 technology sector 00:37 do not become help desk do not become 00:39 death side do not become 00:42 like you know trouble troubleshooting 00:45 or any any kind of support where you 00:47 deal with customers because you get all 00:50 kinds of 00:51 abuse anyways so quickly this is the 00:54 mouse pad 00:54 so i just needed a basic mousepad 00:56 because my job duties require it i stay 00:59 in hotels and like right now 01:03 the mouse is just fine on this cap this 01:06 cabinet 01:07 with drawers any wood surface or 01:10 any kind of a counter in a kitchen 01:12 that’s made out of 01:14 whatever it’s made out of whether it’s 01:18 you know wood or synthetic or even 01:22 maybe concrete type or whatever 01:26 sometimes mice just don’t work as well 01:29 just 01:29 without a mouse pad now if i 01:32 most of my time that i use a computer i 01:35 don’t need a mouse pad but 01:37 not getting into details i have to be 01:39 more precise 01:40 so quickly so here’s the mouse it’s very 01:43 thin i don’t know if you can tell 01:45 from here i’ll move it up closer to the 01:47 camera but i 01:48 i only paid 9.99 excuse me 9.99 299 01:53 and i’ll show you the website well i’ll 01:56 show you 01:56 a web page 02:00 of the mouse for a micro center so 02:03 quickly let me show you on camera how 02:04 thin it is 02:21 okay so hopefully you can tell it’s not 02:24 an inch it’s not 02:25 it’s nothing close to two inches or 02:28 even an inch it’s probably 02:33 wow 1 16 of an inch 1 8 whatever it’s 02:36 very thin 02:36 but if you just need a basic mouse pad 02:40 or what’s known as what i do with the 02:48 they call it a mouse mat so here’s the 02:50 original cardboard that came with 02:52 i like to keep the original packaging i 02:54 don’t make unboxing videos i just make 02:56 videos after the fact and i tell you 02:58 my experiences about these products that 03:00 i buy 03:01 so this is a universal works with all 03:03 mice mouse matte trademark 03:05 basic it says it’s a basic mouse hand 03:09 stands plural is the brand on the back 03:12 it says mouse mat 03:13 basic simple basica 03:17 basic mouse mat which is a trademark 03:21 i don’t know why the they 03:22 trademarked that i don’t know works with 03:24 all mice non-slip rubber base so it is 03:28 made out of petroleum product rubber so 03:31 that’s good 03:33 so if you’re at a hotel or a motel or a 03:36 recreational vehicle or 03:37 you’re somewhere where you need a mount 03:39 at starbucks 03:41 coffee shop mall wherever 03:44 you know what i’m saying getting beat 03:46 down by the gestapo i mean or you’re 03:48 at the united states capitol building 03:50 and you’re trying to take over the 03:51 capitol building and start a revolution 03:53 and you need a mouse pad you know what 03:55 i’m saying 03:57 then this is what you might want it’s 04:00 if you’re looking for a two inch or 04:01 three inch or a very thick mouse pad 04:04 no but but it is quite large actually i 04:06 don’t know if you can tell 04:11 it’s larger than most mice or mouse pads 04:14 that 04:14 you you know you can get at a store most 04:17 of them are smaller 04:18 but anyways at least when i go 04:22 look at computer store anywhere i’m at i 04:25 look at 04:25 computer equipment i’m like yeah it’s 04:28 like you ever notice that they sell you 04:30 the small 04:31 wireless mice even though they they have 04:34 big ones but 04:35 they’re hard to find or i don’t know 04:36 maybe i don’t whatever maybe it’s just 04:37 me 04:38 okay anything else let me show you the 04:41 if you’re interested 04:42 in buying it what you can look for 05:02 okay so this is what oh i think it did 05:06 have some 05:06 cheap plastic well some thin plastic 05:08 wrapping around 05:10 and then there’s a little sticky on the 05:12 cardboard and it was sticking on that so 05:15 there it is so yeah so that way all 05:17 right and so here’s my mouse all right 05:19 so let’s quickly 05:23 rapido quickly is not where i bought it 05:26 i bought it at target 05:27 i was just i i needed a mouse is what i 05:30 was looking for a mouse 05:32 at a target and a local target and i was 05:35 like you know what i could use a mouse 05:36 pad and they actually had 05:38 one it was the only one it was like in 05:39 the keyboard section 05:41 there were no mice around over there or 05:44 i don’t know it was like the keyboards 05:45 and 05:46 my section but 05:49 i think the mice and the keyboards 05:51 weren’t even in the same aisle 05:52 whatever just go to target go you could 05:54 go to the electronics section where the 05:56 televisions 05:57 and the computers and the playstations 06:00 and that crap 06:01 wherever you know their electronic 06:03 section and maybe look for the mouse or 06:05 the 06:06 keyboard aisle and i found it 06:09 in like a bottom shelf by it just 06:11 sitting there 06:12 i was like holy that’s exactly what 06:15 i need i just needed a 06:17 basic mouse pad and it was only 2.99 06:20 now this is it micro center they charge 06:22 the same and then 06:23 quickly quickly so it’s just a hand 06:26 stand brand basic mouse pad 2.99 06:29 and check out their this is exactly what 06:34 why i needed it this mouse pad is 06:36 constructed of long-lasting polyester 06:37 i’ve had it for what 06:39 i don’t know three four months now and 06:42 non-skid 06:43 natural rubber so it is petroleum-based 06:46 it improves mouse tracking and 06:47 responsiveness 06:48 that’s exactly what i needed i don’t 06:51 want to go into details but on this 06:52 website where i earn supplemental income 06:55 helping people with their computer and 06:56 technology problems and then i get 06:58 yelled at 06:59 and threatened with lawsuits and that’s 07:01 not a joke that that’s all true 07:03 i get yelled at i get cussed at like the 07:05 other day somebody threw that two people 07:08 i think on the same day they threatened 07:11 to 07:11 sue me because i didn’t respond fast 07:13 enough and i’m not making that up 07:15 americans are just they drive me insane 07:18 americans give me the most trouble 07:20 anyways 07:23 in order for me to perform my job duties 07:25 i have to be quick 07:27 it’s not that as easy as you think it’s 07:29 not like i there’s a list of 07:31 computer problems that i i can just 07:34 browse through and i can just click on 07:36 it 07:36 on one and take my time no they all 07:39 flood in at the same time 07:41 so if there’s like a thousand new 07:44 requests for help 07:45 they all come in in the same queue at 07:47 the same time 07:49 and there’s enough coverage there’s 07:50 enough technicians that you 07:52 literally have to click quick let me 07:54 i’ll give you that much 07:56 that that’ll be a hint you can’t just 07:58 take your own time all right so anyways 08:01 tracking and responsiveness so the mouse 08:02 pad is good enough for that 08:04 okay so that’s it that’s my video and 08:07 this is over time now you primarily left 08:10 but so if you need a just a basic mouse 08:13 pad 08:14 now they i did not buy it at micro 08:16 center but it looks they 08:17 they sell at microsoft i don’t know if 08:18 they sell that same brand at walmart but 08:20 you could 08:21 you might want to check walmart when i 08:23 tried to look it up i wanted to show you 08:25 the advertisement 08:26 on target.com but they don’t even show 08:28 it listed anymore i don’t even know if 08:29 they sell them anymore 08:30 but they did they did sell another 08:34 handstand brand mouse pad 08:37 i think it was thicker it was smaller 08:38 and it had a wrist guard it had a wrist 08:41 pad 08:42 so and it was what 4.99 now this one is 08:45 is 08:45 is good quality i’ve had it for months 08:47 and months now 08:48 and it doesn’t it it gets a little bit 08:51 dingy i need to clean it 08:53 with water once in a while but i don’t 08:55 think it’s gonna like 08:56 you know shred apart it’s good i think 08:58 it’s gonna last for a long time 09:00 you know what i’m saying but it’s only 09:01 three dollars but so quickly this is 09:06 overtime 09:09 i i may or i may not ever make 09:12 technology well 09:13 troubleshooting tips videos because i do 09:16 this for a living every day and quite 09:17 frankly i get sick and tired of 09:19 dealing with computer problems 09:21 and i get sick and tired of people in 09:23 their attitudes 09:24 they’re angry americans 09:28 are fueled by their emotions and they 09:31 refuse to 09:32 use logic let me say that again 09:35 americans are 09:37 fueled by emotion 09:40 and they refuse to use logic and you 09:43 might be able to argue that they 09:46 are fueled by emotion because they 09:48 refuse to use logic 09:50 instead of becoming emotional and 09:53 becoming a metrosexual little 09:56 relax and use logic 10:00 you try to use your brain 10:03 okay so in the future i plan on 10:05 recording a video about an onn hdmi 10:08 cable 10:12 that i got for what seven dollars i 10:14 bought 10:15 a western digital easy store usb 3.0 10:18 flash drive 32 gigabyte 32 gigabyte for 10:21 six dollars 10:22 a western digital and it works good oh 10:25 those on and usb flash drives are not 10:27 very good i don’t recommend them anymore 10:29 but whatever that was 10:31 i might talk about that in that future 10:33 video another future video 10:34 i bought in in a max usb 10:38 wi-fi that i gained a lot 10:41 stronger signal and i’m able to see i 10:43 would say 10:44 anywhere from five to ten more 10:47 five to ten times more wi-fi signals 10:51 so instead of receiving five i might be 10:53 able to get 20 30 or 40 10:55 and especially if i you know put my 10:57 computer up by a window 10:59 all right so that’s the future that’s 11:00 just the packaging that i’m just 11:02 throwing on the floor 11:03 and then another future video i bought a 11:06 logitech mouse it’s a gaming mouse but i 11:08 needed a better one 11:10 and online these are advertised for 11:13 about five times as much i that i pay 11:15 for i bought 11:16 this at a target on clearance and i’ll 11:19 tell you about that 11:20 i may or may not make you know 11:23 troubleshooting videos helping you with 11:25 your computer problems giving you tips 11:27 and 11:27 tricks and instructions i don’t know i 11:30 may or may not maybe once a week maybe 11:31 once a month maybe never 11:33 adios oh you can click on the link in 11:36 the description box below that will take 11:38 you to my blog post on my website 11:39 ainitcompares.com where i will write a 11:42 blog post 11:42 and i will include a link to the micro 11:45 center 11:46 webpage for this mouse pad in case 11:48 you’re interested 11:49 and it may help you try to find it if 11:52 you know if you’re looking just for a 11:53 cheap basic mouse pad 11:55 adios
Another information technology problem in the world order. This time I was having problems with a third party website that I just recently converted from a WordPress content management system website to a hyper text markup language static website. One of the issues I noticed was that the HTML5 audio player not working in Mozilla Firefox web browser.
You see hyper text markup language version 5 has support for embedded media. You can use the built in <audio> tag to play audio. For example you could provide the playback of songs or even live radio.
However, to my chagrin the embedded HTML5 audio player not working problem only occurred in Mozilla Firefox web browser. As a web devoloper, webmaster, website owner, etc. it is always a good idea to test your websites functionality. Especially, in different web browsers, as currently not all web browsers support the same type of Internet technology.
I am not an exclusive web developer so I did not know that Mozilla Firefox web browser does actually natively support MP3 audio playback, at least at the time of this blog post creation. However, with this hyper text markup language code below, my live audio stream would not work in Mozilla Firefox web browser.
I tested the web page with the embedded audio player and viola I could hear audio in Mozilla Firefox web browser. This Stack Overlow question response claims that both Mozilla Firefox and Opera web browsers prefer playing OGGing audio files instead of Moving Picture Experts Group audio layer 3 files also known as MP3. Ironically, Mozilla Firefox supports Moving Picture Experts Group audio layer 3 files in their official documentation.
Also, I did not independently verify whether or not the live streaming audio would work in Opera web browser. I have not installed or used Opera web browser in years. However, as a amateur web developer of sorts, I guess I had better install it one day for website testing purposes.
Interestingly enough Mozilla Firefox web browser supports these audio formats:
.wav
.wave
vorbis
.ogg
.opus
.oga
.ogv
.ogx
.spx
.flac
.mp3
I fixed another information technology HTML5 audio player not working quagmire, for now at least.

0:00:04.880,0:00:09.519 ultra video powder d
0:00:07.200,0:00:11.040 oh another quagmire now this one’s a
0:00:09.519,0:00:14.400 more personal quagmire
0:00:11.040,0:00:14.400 in information technology
0:00:14.639,0:00:19.199 i’m transitioning away from a content
0:00:17.119,0:00:22.240 management system known as wordpress
0:00:19.199,0:00:24.880 with that god-awful guten editor
0:00:22.240,0:00:27.119 to static html because i’ve had it i’ve
0:00:24.880,0:00:30.720 had it with content management systems
0:00:27.119,0:00:33.920 here’s a tip according to google
0:00:30.720,0:00:35.680 they prefer they recommend that you have
0:00:33.920,0:00:37.760 the fastest loading website
0:00:35.680,0:00:39.760 possible so you may not want to use
0:00:37.760,0:00:43.200 wordpress
0:00:39.760,0:00:45.120 it’s slow and that god i fucking hate
0:00:43.200,0:00:47.280 that goon editor i’ll just be blunt
0:00:45.120,0:00:48.399 and honest that’s one that’s the main
0:00:47.280,0:00:50.719 reason why
0:00:48.399,0:00:51.440 i’m converting anet computers.com to
0:00:50.719,0:00:53.440 static
0:00:51.440,0:00:55.039 hypertext markup language all right so
0:00:53.440,0:00:57.600 now this deals with another website
0:00:55.039,0:01:00.000 which i will not disclose
0:00:57.600,0:01:02.320 and i converted that website from that
0:01:00.000,0:01:06.720 god awful good editor and wordpress to
0:01:02.320,0:01:09.520 static html hypertext markup language
0:01:06.720,0:01:10.400 i was live streaming audio on that
0:01:09.520,0:01:12.640 website
0:01:10.400,0:01:14.400 and then i tested it because you know i
0:01:12.640,0:01:15.280 converted the website and so you want to
0:01:14.400,0:01:18.320 test
0:01:15.280,0:01:20.240 and the audio would not work in mozilla
0:01:18.320,0:01:23.280 firefox web browser
0:01:20.240,0:01:26.960 and i was stumped i was like
0:01:23.280,0:01:29.680 incredulous with a chagrin
0:01:26.960,0:01:30.799 and i was like what the fuck so here is
0:01:29.680,0:01:34.000 the solution
0:01:30.799,0:01:36.159 if you have problems streaming audio or
0:01:34.000,0:01:41.840 getting audio to play
0:01:36.159,0:01:41.840 in hyper text markup language
0:01:42.079,0:01:45.520 with the audio tag
0:01:46.479,0:01:49.759 in mozilla firefox and also possibly
0:01:48.880,0:01:52.640 opera
0:01:49.759,0:01:53.360 here is the possible fix this is what
0:01:52.640,0:01:55.920 fixed
0:01:53.360,0:01:57.119 my problem here is the code so let me
0:01:55.920,0:01:59.920 quickly describe
0:01:57.119,0:02:00.719 the code now in hypertext markup
0:01:59.920,0:02:03.680 language
0:02:00.719,0:02:06.000 the current version is five you are able
0:02:03.680,0:02:07.680 to embed both audio and video
0:02:06.000,0:02:09.920 because it has a built-in audio and
0:02:07.680,0:02:11.360 video player it’s not the bling bling
0:02:09.920,0:02:13.920 bling it’s not
0:02:11.360,0:02:16.480 you know holly weird style it’s not even
0:02:13.920,0:02:16.720 las vegas style with the flashing lights
0:02:16.480,0:02:20.640 and
0:02:16.720,0:02:22.800 oh my god the the most gorgeous
0:02:20.640,0:02:23.760 you know media player on the planet oh
0:02:22.800,0:02:26.879 my god no
0:02:23.760,0:02:27.360 it has a basic audio player but it works
0:02:26.879,0:02:31.360 very
0:02:27.360,0:02:33.760 well this is my original code
0:02:31.360,0:02:36.160 so in hypertext markup language you use
0:02:33.760,0:02:39.680 you can use this tag
0:02:36.160,0:02:43.760 to stream and play audio
0:02:39.680,0:02:45.599 in your website audio controls that’s
0:02:43.760,0:02:50.319 the opening tag
0:02:45.599,0:02:53.760 controls tells it to load controls like
0:02:50.319,0:02:57.120 you know volume adjustment
0:02:53.760,0:02:58.720 etc you can use the you can take out the
0:02:57.120,0:03:00.239 controls if you wanted to and it would
0:02:58.720,0:03:02.560 just be the audio tag but i don’t want
0:03:00.239,0:03:05.519 to digress about the specifics
0:03:02.560,0:03:06.000 of each you know tag in hypertext markup
0:03:05.519,0:03:07.840 language
0:03:06.000,0:03:09.200 because i’m really not an expert but i
0:03:07.840,0:03:11.280 know how to code some
0:03:09.200,0:03:12.239 all right now you have to tell the
0:03:11.280,0:03:14.879 source
0:03:12.239,0:03:16.720 so this second line is just telling
0:03:14.879,0:03:20.400 hypertext markup language
0:03:16.720,0:03:20.400 this the source of the audio
0:03:20.480,0:03:27.120 so that it will play in an embedded
0:03:23.680,0:03:30.319 player on the web page
0:03:27.120,0:03:32.319 and then you tell the hypertext markup
0:03:30.319,0:03:33.840 language what is the type what is the
0:03:32.319,0:03:37.200 type of audio
0:03:33.840,0:03:37.200 that you’re wanting me to play
0:03:37.920,0:03:45.519 and audio slash mpeg is actually for mp3
0:03:42.480,0:03:49.360 so officially mozilla firefox supports
0:03:45.519,0:03:50.959 mp3 although mp3 i think requires a
0:03:49.360,0:03:52.560 license i could be wrong but i think
0:03:50.959,0:03:53.920 mozilla has to pay a license fee in
0:03:52.560,0:03:57.680 order for you to
0:03:53.920,0:04:00.799 have the ability to play mp3 audio
0:03:57.680,0:04:04.319 in their web browser mozilla firefox
0:04:00.799,0:04:05.519 now og which i will get to is an open
0:04:04.319,0:04:09.599 source codec
0:04:05.519,0:04:09.599 they don’t require a licensing fee
0:04:10.480,0:04:15.840 however according to a stack overflow
0:04:16.320,0:04:20.239 question post that i found
0:04:21.040,0:04:24.960 both mozilla firefox and opera they
0:04:23.600,0:04:27.759 don’t they support
0:04:24.960,0:04:29.280 mp3 but they don’t necessarily like to
0:04:27.759,0:04:31.360 support it
0:04:29.280,0:04:33.040 it doesn’t work very well so this is
0:04:31.360,0:04:35.759 what fixed my problem
0:04:33.040,0:04:37.919 now here’s the closing tag slash audio
0:04:35.759,0:04:42.960 in hypertext markup language
0:04:37.919,0:04:46.479 the forward slash closes the tag
0:04:42.960,0:04:49.120 it tells the interpreter stop
0:04:46.479,0:04:50.880 stop with the audio controls stop right
0:04:49.120,0:04:53.759 now
0:04:50.880,0:04:55.600 here’s the second line that i added to
0:04:53.759,0:04:57.199 fix my problem
0:04:55.600,0:05:00.240 it’s just this line right here that i
0:04:57.199,0:05:03.199 highlighted it i’m telling it the source
0:05:00.240,0:05:04.560 of the audio it could be an mp3 file it
0:05:03.199,0:05:07.759 could be
0:05:04.560,0:05:08.800 the destination on the web server to an
0:05:07.759,0:05:11.199 mp3 or
0:05:08.800,0:05:12.400 another audio file obviously this is not
0:05:11.199,0:05:14.240 but i’m not going to get into the
0:05:12.400,0:05:16.560 details here
0:05:14.240,0:05:17.680 this is what fixed it i added in this
0:05:16.560,0:05:21.199 type
0:05:17.680,0:05:23.520 so i added two types two lines
0:05:21.199,0:05:24.800 with the same source but with two
0:05:23.520,0:05:28.080 different
0:05:24.800,0:05:31.600 audio types type equals
0:05:28.080,0:05:34.639 audio slash og ogg
0:05:31.600,0:05:37.120 is an open source audio codec that both
0:05:34.639,0:05:39.680 mazuro firefox and opera supports
0:05:37.120,0:05:41.039 and it’s open source and so you don’t
0:05:39.680,0:05:43.120 have to pay a licensing fee
0:05:41.039,0:05:44.639 you know what i’m saying and that’s what
0:05:43.120,0:05:46.240 fixed it i don’t know why that is i
0:05:44.639,0:05:48.560 don’t know if it’s a glitch or a bug
0:05:46.240,0:05:50.560 with mozilla firefox web browser
0:05:48.560,0:05:52.160 but according to the post from stack
0:05:50.560,0:05:55.360 overflow
0:05:52.160,0:05:58.479 i guess it you know both mozilla firefox
0:05:55.360,0:05:58.800 and opera web browsers and notorious for
0:05:58.479,0:06:02.000 not
0:05:58.800,0:06:02.560 necessarily being you know mp3 friendly
0:06:02.000,0:06:04.960 even though
0:06:02.560,0:06:07.280 both web browsers support mp3 so i’m
0:06:04.960,0:06:08.319 just not 100 certain all i know is i fix
0:06:07.280,0:06:10.240 the problem
0:06:08.319,0:06:12.240 now when i went back to that and i can’t
0:06:10.240,0:06:14.080 demonstrate because it’s a third-party
0:06:12.240,0:06:15.919 website it’s an activist website
0:06:14.080,0:06:17.600 and i will never ever discuss it because
0:06:15.919,0:06:20.160 of the american
0:06:17.600,0:06:21.520 communist socialist americans that do
0:06:20.160,0:06:23.840 not want to become free
0:06:21.520,0:06:25.600 they are commies their control freaks
0:06:23.840,0:06:26.080 they will snitch on you they will troll
0:06:25.600,0:06:28.560 you
0:06:26.080,0:06:31.120 they will swat you ad nauseum at
0:06:28.560,0:06:31.120 infinite
0:06:32.880,0:06:38.160 but if you run into this problem where
0:06:35.039,0:06:39.120 for whatever reason html5 audio player
0:06:38.160,0:06:41.840 is not working
0:06:39.120,0:06:43.759 in mozilla firefox web browser this is a
0:06:41.840,0:06:46.800 potential fix
0:06:43.759,0:06:51.440 you you tell you you give the
0:06:46.800,0:06:53.840 html you stipulate two types of audio
0:06:51.440,0:06:55.039 and it actually fixed it before it would
0:06:53.840,0:06:57.520 not work with this
0:06:55.039,0:06:58.720 tag or excuse me with this type i don’t
0:06:57.520,0:07:01.039 know why that’s bizarre
0:06:58.720,0:07:02.639 but when i added the audio alt tag it
0:07:01.039,0:07:06.080 worked and
0:07:02.639,0:07:07.440 i’m my streamer the streams audio alive
0:07:06.080,0:07:11.680 24 hours a day on this
0:07:07.440,0:07:14.960 website it’s actually
0:07:11.680,0:07:17.440 the variable i stipulated was mp3
0:07:14.960,0:07:19.599 so it’s streaming in mp3 but it won’t
0:07:17.440,0:07:22.560 play in mp3 in mozilla firefox
0:07:19.599,0:07:23.680 so i added aug as a type and it and it
0:07:22.560,0:07:27.360 plays now
0:07:23.680,0:07:27.360 i added the additional
0:07:27.440,0:07:32.160 line right here underneath this one in
0:07:30.479,0:07:33.599 between the two tags in between the
0:07:32.160,0:07:36.880 opening and the closing
0:07:33.599,0:07:39.919 i saved it the changes on my web server
0:07:36.880,0:07:42.400 i cleared the web browser cache
0:07:39.919,0:07:44.000 for mozilla and i refreshed that page
0:07:42.400,0:07:46.240 and bam
0:07:44.000,0:07:47.759 it loaded the player correctly if if it
0:07:46.240,0:07:49.759 doesn’t if it will not play
0:07:47.759,0:07:51.039 it could be it could be just you know a
0:07:49.759,0:07:52.800 coding error
0:07:51.039,0:07:54.479 or in this instance it didn’t like the
0:07:52.800,0:07:57.680 type i don’t know why that is
0:07:54.479,0:07:58.319 the button will be grayed out the button
0:07:57.680,0:08:00.000 will
0:07:58.319,0:08:01.680 will not be grayed out and you’ll be
0:08:00.000,0:08:04.560 able to click on it
0:08:01.680,0:08:06.720 if the stream loads correctly it loaded
0:08:04.560,0:08:10.400 correctly i clicked on play and bam
0:08:06.720,0:08:13.360 is start playing so that is my solution
0:08:10.400,0:08:13.840 and you can check out my blog post where
0:08:13.360,0:08:15.840 i
0:08:13.840,0:08:17.280 you know discuss more about this and
0:08:15.840,0:08:18.639 then you can check out the code that
0:08:17.280,0:08:21.479 you’ll need to enter
0:08:18.639,0:08:23.440 now this is for audio only this is for
0:08:21.479,0:08:25.680 html5
0:08:23.440,0:08:26.800 hypertext markup language and this is
0:08:25.680,0:08:32.399 for embedding
0:08:26.800,0:08:35.200 the the built-in audio player that html5
0:08:32.399,0:08:37.039 includes now and how to get it to work
0:08:35.200,0:08:38.240 in mozilla firefox and opera i did not
0:08:37.039,0:08:40.959 test an opera
0:08:38.240,0:08:41.760 i have not installed opera web browser
0:08:40.959,0:08:45.200 in like
0:08:41.760,0:08:47.200 what a century i mean yeah
0:08:45.200,0:08:49.360 five years at least because i never
0:08:47.200,0:08:50.320 really liked opera yeah it worked okay i
0:08:49.360,0:08:53.839 just did
0:08:50.320,0:08:55.760 the interface the graphical user
0:08:53.839,0:08:57.600 interface is just kind of
0:08:55.760,0:08:59.519 i’m sorry but for me it was kind of
0:08:57.600,0:09:02.480 jankety
0:08:59.519,0:09:04.800 i know that slang oh i know you pale
0:09:02.480,0:09:06.959 skinned european supremacists
0:09:04.800,0:09:08.000 number you hate us people with color and
0:09:06.959,0:09:10.160 especially you don’t like
0:09:08.000,0:09:11.839 it when we use slang or we don’t use
0:09:10.160,0:09:15.839 proper european
0:09:11.839,0:09:18.160 terms all right it was janky but
0:09:15.839,0:09:20.240 you know i should probably install opera
0:09:18.160,0:09:22.560 so i could test properly i did have i
0:09:20.240,0:09:25.839 don’t like mozilla firefox web browser
0:09:22.560,0:09:27.360 it’s bloated it’s it’s largest although
0:09:25.839,0:09:29.680 i will say recently
0:09:27.360,0:09:32.640 when i do use it to test my website it
0:09:29.680,0:09:34.640 seems to be functioning faster
0:09:32.640,0:09:37.279 and whereas a couple of months ago i’m
0:09:34.640,0:09:39.519 like what the fuck is this shit
0:09:37.279,0:09:41.200 it is indeed a brave new world for
0:09:39.519,0:09:44.640 people with color in the european pale
0:09:41.200,0:09:48.000 skin supremacist world order
0:09:44.640,0:09:50.000 the web bras are brave you know it loads
0:09:48.000,0:09:52.480 it up pretty quick but fucking mozilla
0:09:50.000,0:09:53.920 firefox but now recently it’s much much
0:09:52.480,0:09:56.320 quicker i’m not sure why that is but i
0:09:53.920,0:09:59.440 do not rely on mozilla firefox but i i
0:09:56.320,0:10:01.279 understand that a lot of individuals
0:09:59.440,0:10:02.720 on the internet they will use mozilla
0:10:01.279,0:10:04.959 firefox they will use
0:10:02.720,0:10:06.640 opera and they will use chrome i did not
0:10:04.959,0:10:09.279 test in chrome
0:10:06.640,0:10:10.000 now brave is based upon chromium but
0:10:09.279,0:10:12.800 it’s not
0:10:10.000,0:10:14.720 exactly like google chrome web browser
0:10:12.800,0:10:17.200 so but i should probably
0:10:14.720,0:10:18.000 install well let’s see i guess i should
0:10:17.200,0:10:21.440 just install
0:10:18.000,0:10:22.240 every web browser ever built including
0:10:21.440,0:10:25.440 netscape
0:10:22.240,0:10:26.560 and how about links the text only i mean
0:10:25.440,0:10:28.959 it gets ridiculous
0:10:26.560,0:10:30.880 and some of these web browser developers
0:10:28.959,0:10:33.920 they don’t necessarily support
0:10:30.880,0:10:38.240 all of the same media codex
0:10:33.920,0:10:40.880 so it’s just but i am much happier
0:10:38.240,0:10:43.279 with i have two websites now that i
0:10:40.880,0:10:46.640 converted from that god awful wordpress
0:10:43.279,0:10:49.200 with that atrocious guten editor
0:10:46.640,0:10:49.920 talk about gluten i mean intolerance i
0:10:49.200,0:10:53.680 mean good
0:10:49.920,0:10:59.600 i have a guten editor intolerance
0:10:53.680,0:10:59.600 you know what i’m saying adios
WordPress 5.5 was recently released for production use. One interesting new feature with WordPress 5.5 is a built in sitemap. However, by default this feature is turned on.
I was a bit confused as to where this sitemap is located. There are quite a few WordPress plugins that are free or paid for that you can use to create a sitemap. Now this sitemap I am talking about is for search engines like Bing, Google, etc.
You see search engines often times look for Uniform Resource Locators by browsing a website’s robots.txt file. Generally, the robots.txt file is located in the document root folder of a website on the server side. For example:
/home/user/public_html/robots.txt
Now not all web servers have the same directory structure to your websites root folder location. The WordPress 5.5 sitemap is actually located at this example below.
http://www.governmentsucks.com/wp-sitemap.xml
According to this WordPress 5.5 sitemap core blog post, WordPress 5.5 now automatically creates a sitemap by default named sitemap.xml.
http://www.governmentsucks.com/sitemap.xml
However, this file does not exist, because actually I had disabled a free plugin that would create a sitemap.xml file for Bing, Google, etc. search engines. I actually found this sitemap instead, wp-sitemap.xml. You see before WordPress 5.5, you had to either manually create a sitemap or install a plugin in order to have a sitemap for Bing, Google, etc. search engines.
Also, the new WordPress 5.5 is supposed to automatically change your robots.txt file with the new default WordPress 5.5 sitemap. However, this website you are reading this blog post on, did not have an updated robots.txt file after I upgraded WordPress to 5.5. Actually, I had upgraded another one of my websites that I administer, and I found this entry in that websites robots.txt file.
The most important line is the one above highlighted with bold font. I browsed to:
http://www.anetcomputers.com/wp-sitemap.xml
Sure enough the new WordPress 5.5 sitemap had been successfully created. I went ahead and manually edited this domain’s robots.txt file with the correct Sitemap: declaration. Also, I updated my Google Webmasters sitemap declaration for the WordPress 5.5 sitemap.
You do not necessarily need to include information in both your Google Webmasters account and or robots.txt file about your sitemap location. Some search robots will ignore this file. Also, it is well known that Google indexes websites now a days without you evening notifying their search robot about your websites sitemap file.
Finally, I had already disabled the plugin that had created the old sitemap.xml file. I went ahead and deleted this plugin. I am satisfied for now with this built in WordPress 5.5 sitemap. In summation, if you are confused as to the location of your WordPress 5.5 sitemap, look for sitemap.xml or wp-sitemap.xml using my example domain name above.
WordPress 5.5 Sitemap – Location Video Transcript
0:00:01.599,0:00:07.040 all right well i believe
0:00:03.360,0:00:09.040 i am live and these motherfuckers at
0:00:07.040,0:00:13.360 youtube i’m telling you
0:00:09.040,0:00:16.960 they they fucking changed the goddamn
0:00:13.360,0:00:20.400 streaming platform when on the back end
0:00:16.960,0:00:24.160 it you it used to ask you to click on
0:00:20.400,0:00:26.320 go live you would hit your encoder
0:00:24.160,0:00:27.599 and start streaming and then you had to
0:00:26.320,0:00:30.640 click another button
0:00:27.599,0:00:33.920 that said go live well
0:00:30.640,0:00:37.600 when i started the stream
0:00:33.920,0:00:41.600 the button disappeared and so now
0:00:37.600,0:00:44.000 there’s another button called end stream
0:00:41.600,0:00:47.360 and then also i wasn’t able to edit the
0:00:44.000,0:00:47.360 title of this live stream
0:00:47.600,0:00:51.680 normally it asks you to enter in the
0:00:49.920,0:00:53.440 title and some additional information
0:00:51.680,0:00:56.320 before you even start
0:00:53.440,0:00:57.120 i had to click on edit because it
0:00:56.320,0:01:00.960 pre-filled
0:00:57.120,0:01:02.559 from my from some default all right
0:01:00.960,0:01:05.360 so this is my live stream about
0:01:02.559,0:01:08.560 wordpress 5.5
0:01:05.360,0:01:11.600 which is an the most recent version
0:01:08.560,0:01:15.040 up to this you know video creation
0:01:11.600,0:01:18.640 and one interesting feature of
0:01:15.040,0:01:21.119 wordpress 5.5 is a built-in default
0:01:18.640,0:01:22.560 site map so that’s what this live stream
0:01:21.119,0:01:26.240 is going
0:01:22.560,0:01:28.479 to become now
0:01:26.240,0:01:30.799 two live streams ago i complained about
0:01:28.479,0:01:33.840 how atrocious youtube was
0:01:30.799,0:01:37.759 and then
0:01:33.840,0:01:41.520 my last live stream was perfect
0:01:37.759,0:01:43.759 it was archived within an hour
0:01:41.520,0:01:46.159 and i you know that’s why i live stream
0:01:43.759,0:01:48.079 it so it saves me time
0:01:46.159,0:01:50.399 but i was not aware of the new changes
0:01:48.079,0:01:53.280 all right so let’s get into this
0:01:50.399,0:01:54.240 now let me go through my blog post and
0:01:53.280,0:01:57.200 it’s
0:01:54.240,0:01:58.159 basically 100 percent written except for
0:01:57.200,0:02:00.399 i need to

I continue with my cleanup of my Internet footprint. This time my target is the removal of my Disqus.com account. You can delete disqus account quite easily actually.
You will want to log into your Disqus.com account. Then you will be take to your “Account” section tab. Now you will want to scroll all the way to the bottom until you see a “Delete Your Disqus Account” button.
When you click on this button you will be taken to another page where you have to select a reason why you are deleting your Disqus account. You will be asked to confirm your account deletion. You have six choices to choose from.
I Can’t Get Disqus to Work on This Site
I Received Too Many Emails Notifications
I Spend Too Much Time Using Disqus
I Don’t Find Disqus Useful
I Can’t Change my Name
Other
Even though you are already logged into your Disqus account, you will be prompted to enter in your Disqus password again in order to delete disqus account. You are then warned that it may take up to 24 hours for your Disqus account to finally get deleted. You will see a blue “Delete my Account” button.
After you click on this blue delete my account button, you will be presented with a final pop up that warns you that you are about to permanently delete disqus account. You can click on “Cancel” or “OK”. When you click on ok, you are taken back to the Disqus.com homepage.
Finally, my Disqus.com account albatross has been defeated. Disqus.com stipulates that your account will become fully deleted after 30 days. Your account becomes immediately deactivated.
None of your Disqus comments will be available to the public during this 30 day grace period. None of your Disqus data is recoverable after the 30 day grace period.

plug-in and then users with a Disqus 00:53 account they can comment on your blog 00:55 posts if you’re not aware of it and in 00:58 other web sites all there’s all kinds of 01:00 internet websites that you can use 01:02 discus to to comment okay so you want to 01:06 log into your Disqus account I’m logged 01:08 in now and this goddamn fucking 01:10 obsession with CAPTCHA discus has the 01:13 Google CAPTCHA I fucking hate that 01:15 Google CAPTCHA crap I fucking despise it 01:18 I think you can skip it though but some 01:20 but more and more websites are using the 01:23 Google reCAPTCHA

05:17 another caveat do not try to log in I’m 05:21 assuming that you don’t want to try to 05:23 log back into your Disqus account 05:25 because it can take up to 24 hours 05:27 I didn’t read their help file I might I 05:29 may include that in my blog post 05:32 I didn’t on this one I was just like 05:34 fuck it I’ve been wanting to get rid of 05:35 my damn Disqus account you know and I 05:38 was like you know what I’m just gonna do 05:39 a live stream and so the trolls don’t 05:41 show up and I I ignore all comments it 05:43 my last livestream I disabled the 05:47 comments and and motherfuckers were 05:49 still able to chat however I didn’t pay 05:52 attention to any of them I never read 05:53 any of them I just you know 05:55 alright so alright 24 hours I’m there’s 05:59 a blue delete my account button I just 06:02 clicked on it and now there’s a pop-up 06:04 that says okay I mean to me it’s obvious 06:07 they don’t want you to delete your 06:09 account they now there’s

this 06:38 is the only bit of information I can 06:40 show you all right let me transition and 06:43 let me make sure it’s out selected and 06:47 okay so it just took me back to the 06:50 Disqus home page as you can see on 06:52 screen that’s it that’s all it showed 06:56 now again caveat emptor all of your 07:00 comments will be gone and any other crap 07:02 you know gone poof and then number two 07:06 24-hour notice so I don’t know for a 07:10 fact I I might include it in my blog 07:12 post so you might want to click on the 07:14 link in the description box below that 07:15 will take you to

so in 07:43 the delete request may not go through so 07:47 me personally I’m gonna wait I’m gonna 07:51 wait like a month because I don’t want 07:55 to ever be able to log in to this 07:57 goddamn fucking albatross Disqus dot-com 08:02 continuing to delete my internet 08:05 footprint off of all these goddamn 08:08 wretched web sites that just they chew 08:11 up all your time and they intelligence 08:13 gather and then when when you do want to 08:15 you know leave all you know well we got 08:20 a capture that you can barely read or 08:22 they got three prompts adios 08:29 you have to end this stream
I finally got around to deleting another account on the Internet. I have been trying to clean up my Internet footprint recently. Chatango is a free chat service where you can chat privately to individuals for free.
Also, you can actually host your own chat room on your own website. However, this would require you to incorporate some code into a blog post or page. Anyways, my Chatango account no longer even worked any longer with Brave web browser.
I received a “This plugin is not supported” error message when logging into my Chatango account. I could not access any of my account settings. However, I was able to find out how to delete Chatango account.
You will want to log into your Chatango account. Once logged in you will want to visit this delete Chatango account link. Then you will want to click on “Delete This Account”.
You will be asked to enter in your Chatango password. Also, you are required to enter in a captcha word. The first captcha word was barely legible with a light aqua color and hard to read with a less than stellar font.
Once you enter in the correct captcha your delete Chatango account permanently dreams come true with this message.
Your account government sucks with the email becomingfree@governmentsucks.com has been deleted.
Also, you will no longer be able to log into your Chatango account. I tried logging into my Chatango account credentials after deleting my account and I was not able to sign back in and received this message.
Incorrect Login Info.
This albatross is gone forever. Now on to my next Internet albatross. One day I may finally clean up my Internet footprint.
Until then I keep finding accounts to delete and blog posts to write about it. Although, I do not have anything negative to say about Chatango, as I never really had any problems with their free chat service.
Delete Chatango Account – Permanently Video Transcript

00:44 with his bullshit executive order 00:46 you just don’t know plus plus me I’m 00:49 going through as many internet accounts 00:51 and trying to clean up my internet 00:54 footprint and chat tango was one of them 00:56 and if I were to to provide chat on my 00:59 website a net computers comm I would 01:03 actually use IRC and you can get you can 01:06 find all kinds of free open source 01:09 versions of IRC that runs on Linux and 01:11 probably wind blows and anyways click on 01:16 the link in the description box below 01:18 that will take you to my blog post on my 01:19 website and it compares calm for the 01:23 full instructions I will provide 01:24 detailed instructions links you know 01:27 where to go I could not really actually 01:29 I logged into my chat tango account the 01:33 first time in quite a while and the 01:36 Weber it doesn’t even fucking work the 01:38 web browser says it’s it’s what is it 01:44 it says it’s an invalid it’s great I 01:48 don’t know some bullshit here I’m not I 01:50 can’t screen capture it because they’re 01:52 my there’s a piece no this plugin is not 01:56 supported maybe it needs flash I don’t 02:00 know I don’t care all right 02:02 so I will try to screen capture any 02:05 pages that I can it may not I may not be 02:09 able to because I never ever ever 02:12 release any even one piece of 02:15 information that these motherfuckers on 02:18 YouTube and the internet and all and you 02:22 know I mean you got motherfuckers that 02:24 Doc’s and you got motherfuckers on 02:27 YouTube that SWAT swatting you know I’m 02:30 saying so alright so let’s go so I will 02:35 provide a link you’re gonna want to log 02:37 into your check 02:39 tango account first it’ll make it much 02:40 easier I could not it’s not even working 02:43 so I can’t even go into my account 02:45 settings really or can i I don’t know I 02:47 didn’t care I just I found how to do it 02:50 so I was like well fuck it 02:53 so log into your chat tango account and 02:56 then click on the link that will be in 03:00 my blog post and I’ll take you to this 03:02 page where it says delete account one of 03:07 my favorite activities is cleaning up my 03:12 internet footprint Facebook Twitter 03:15 YouTube I mean get it all right Oh Gmail 03:24 Yahoo uh uh hotmail now fuck those 03:28 billion dollar fascist crooked criminal 03:31 corporations that are in bed with the 03:33 government now and you don’t and then 03:35 they’re now gonna probably they might 03:39 change section 230 of the 1996 anyways 03:45 anyways you just don’t know what’s going 03:47 to go down the pipeline in the future so 03:49 I say to me is productive to learn how 03:53 to host your own email host your own 03:56 website host your own chat tool 03:58 host drones social engineering I mean it 04:01 just goes on and on on everything that 04:03 these free providers give to you you can 04:06 easily provide for yourself on your own 04:08 all right so here I am I’m logged into 04:12 my account and then I’m gonna fucking 04:15 delete this motherfucker so let me go 04:18 back delete account all right now what’s 04:22 going on all right 04:23 I can’t screen capture this because it 04:25 shows a piece of information that 04:27 somebody else could use to circumvent 04:32 something yeah you might want to study 04:34 you know website security our study 04:37 security computer security delete this 04:40 account and then blank and shows your 04:43 username your chat tango username if you 04:46 wish to delete a different account 04:47 please log out and log into that game 04:49 yeah I’m not sure you might have to log 04:52 in like I couldn’t find it and now all 04:54 this web browser doesn’t even work with 04:56 this fucking goddamn website so it’s 04:57 likely I didn’t waste time trying with 05:00 Mozilla Firefox or you know whatever so 05:03 I’m gonna click on the yellow delete 05:06 this account and let’s see what happens 05:08 oh it asked me for my password well I’m 05:12 already logged in see this is another 05:16 everything’s paranoia now well let’s see 05:18 you you have to have two bit you have to 05:22 have two-factor authentication you have 05:24 to have biometrics you have to have a 05:26 password then you have to know your 05:28 security question then you have to know 05:30 your zip code your date of birth your 05:31 Social Security your FBI file your bla 05:35 bla bla your passport you have to upload 05:37 your driver’s license and then you can 05:40 log in to Amazon and purchase some 05:42 potato chips or whatever so that is 05:47 another reason why I am going through 05:49 and getting rid of as many accounts off 05:51 the internet as I can I’m done with all 05:53 this bullshit and I might just you know 05:56 disconnect the internet and you know go 05:58 live in the mountain somewhere and 06:00 you’ll never fucking hear from me again 06:02 which you probably would actually 06:04 approve of that cuz you’re one of my 06:07 youtube subscribers that tells me or 06:09 fucking talk shit to me 06:11 on a live stream I’m not the only 06:14 YouTube content creator that has to put 06:16 up with that bullshit so I’m entering in 06:22 my password twice and that oh it’s got 06:30 CAPTCHA but I can barely read it you got 06:35 to be kidding me man I can barely read 06:39 the CAPTCHA I wish I could show you it 06:41 is barely legible I think that’s correct 06:49 but probably not no okay it oh my I can 06:54 barely read that CAPTCHA let me see if I 06:56 can I’m not making this shit up dude let 06:59 me expand I made the web browser I 07:01 zoomed in on the web browser I think I 07:04 know what it is now it could be by 07:06 design oh yeah you don’t think that’s 07:08 out of the realm of possibility yeah 07:10 these motherfuckers they it’s like the 07:13 comcast retention Department you call 07:15 them to cancel your comm crap service 07:18 also known as Comcast Xfinity and they 07:20 lot and they argue with you and yell at 07:22 you and and call you a liar which is a 07:24 real life story that really happened to 07:26 me when I tried to cancel my comm crap 07:29 internet service years ago 07:36 okay let’s see 07:49 okay let’s see if I’ve got it right now 07:51 oh yes I got through the CAPTCHA I had 07:57 to zoom in my web browser and it was at 07:59 a hundred percent but I was like it’s 08:01 like it was like aqua the letters were 08:05 like in aqua what what why not black 08:09 font or you know a black background with 08:12 a white font so you can see the CAPTCHA 08:14 I can’t help but think that was 08:16 intentional 08:17 yeah because think about it you can’t 08:19 figure out the CAPTCHA you’ll just give 08:21 up and you’ll just leave your account 08:22 out there and or you know I don’t know 08:25 man I don’t know all right 08:27 it asked me to say a password but I 08:28 don’t know what it says chat tangle your 08:32 account blank with the email blank has 08:37 been deleted yes yes chant tango Tom an 08:43 albatross that I’ve been wanting to get 08:46 rid of is gone now what you could do is 08:53 you could double check I’m not aware 08:54 that I went to their you know Help 08:58 section and they don’t really say much 09:00 but I saw the delete button I was like 09:02 yes I was salivating ping understand and 09:07 they didn’t describe well let’s say you 09:10 got a 60-day retention and this is 09:12 what’s gonna happen and I don’t give a 09:14 fuck I’m you know I’m assuming well yeah 09:16 yeah can you even save your chats your 09:21 private yeah probably I haven’t used 09:22 this in a while yeah so just become more 09:25 of that again I can’t go over any other 09:27 tips for you except for what I’m gonna 09:29 freestyle because they didn’t really 09:31 have a page saying well blah blah so I 09:34 don’t know if they have a a grace period 09:38 we can what you could do is you could 09:41 test that out which I’m gonna do right 09:42 now none so this is the website that I 09:47 was that I just right there this is the 09:51 website I just canceled my account with 09:53 if if you’ve never heard of chat tango 09:55 calm this is it so but I’m not gonna you 09:59 know screen-capture showing you how to 10:01 log in 10:02 to my account Hawai all right so let me 10:05 test it really quick and let’s see if it 10:08 even lets me log back in 10:18 yes in big bright background font now 10:23 that’s proper that’s proper marketing I 10:25 think that’s pretty sleazy of these 10:27 motherfuckers at this website then it 10:30 went when it came down to deleting my 10:32 account that I had to reenter my 10:34 password okay fine then I had to enter 10:37 in a CAPTCHA but the capture was in like 10:39 a an aqua font and it was not bright and 10:44 it was very hard to see the font was not 10:47 like white on an aqua background the 10:50 font was literally aqua and so I had to 10:55 zoom in because I couldn’t fucking read 10:57 it incorrect login info the background 11:02 is bright red and the font on that 11:06 background is white if you’ve ever 11:07 studied marketing you want contrasting 11:11 colors and web development a fucking 11:18 light aqua on a white background where 11:22 you can in a and then a lot of those 11:25 CAPTCHA programs the fonts aren’t they 11:28 use weird janky fonts that even with 11:32 black on white or white on black are 11:34 difficult to read anyways alright so 11:38 that’s it anything further I guess what 11:42 I can I don’t want to make this video 11:44 too long is I just when it comes to your 11:48 internet footprint you want to if you 11:51 have the time study computer security 11:53 all’s it takes is one piece of 11:56 information and one of these 11:58 motherfuckers on YouTube or Facebook or 12:01 Twitter or ad nauseam ad infinitum 12:04 they will SWAT you if you’re in 12:06 information technology and you’re just 12:08 trying to help people you’re just trying 12:10 to be nice trying to help people show 12:12 them how to put a computer together or 12:14 whatever whatever your niche is and 12:16 information technology all of a sudden 12:18 the police show up multiple squad cars 12:21 with their guns out you know a blazing 12:26 you know I’m saying so there to me 12:31 there’s many different reasons why it 12:32 could be productive for you to just 12:34 clean up your internet footprint the 12:36 less accounts you have online the last 12:39 chance that somebody could circumvent 12:43 that online account and then use any 12:46 information in that account for to go 12:49 after you as far as bank information you 12:53 know fiduciary responsibilities bills 12:56 whatever is important to you you know 12:59 I’m saying and then also another reason 13:00 why is that most services on the 13:03 internet that are quote unquote free 13:04 there’s almost always a catch 13:06 well let’s see the National Security 13:08 Agency wants you to use Facebook so that 13:10 they can spy on you all the time 13:12 also known as national spy agency I mean 13:18 you can learn how to like host your own 13:21 email so you don’t have to rely on Gmail 13:24 no there’s no guarantees have you ever 13:26 read the terms of agreements for these 13:28 billion dollar fascist crooked criminal 13:30 corporations they can close that account 13:33 and on the real world computer 13:35 technician I would say at least once a 13:37 day every couple of days I see somebody 13:39 complaining of not being able to log 13:42 into an email account and but it’s more 13:47 specific they’re complaining because 13:49 they’re fucked now they can’t get into 13:50 their bank account they can’t get into 13:53 their PayPal they can’t get in or well 13:55 or with this alleged pandemic they can’t 13:58 get into a file for unemployment or they 14:00 can’t get in to receive the stimulus 14:04 check you know I’m saying and I’m not 14:06 making in this up so these email 14:10 providers are very it can be very 14:12 crooked gmail I would not I don’t give 14:14 out orders I’m just telling you as a 14:16 with experience you may not want to rely 14:19 on Gmail Microsoft restof you can get a 14:23 free hop

him I just don’t 17:38 necessarily trust anybody anymore 17:42 incorrect login info that is when I 17:45 tried to sign back into that chat tango 17:47 account and I know because I had the 17:50 information saved so I know at least the 17:53 username or email was correct and I know 17:55 the password was correct because I 17:58 hadn’t signed in a while and I actually 18:00 had to enter it in

and so far the wireless mouse it’s 19:55 great so it’s not always that you pay 19:58 what you get for it sometimes it is with 20:01 that other Mouse adios
I received another computer request. This one did NOT deal with troubleshooting. Here is the original initial request:
“I set up Google Analytics on my web site a couple of weeks ago. I decided to change the domain name last week and I don’t know how to switch over the Google Analytics account to my new domain name. I just changed the domain name last week.
I have tried looking up how to assign a new domain name to my google analytics account since making the change. Could not find it.”
Here is my initial original response:
You can change the domain name of your web property in Google Analytics. Log in to Google Analytics. Click on “Admin”.
Browse to the web property that you want to edit. In the “Property” column click on “Default URL”. Type in your new domain URL.
Finally, click on “Save”. This should change your domain in Google Analytics. This individual was able to successfully change their Google Analytics domain with these instructions.
Google Analytics is a free tool that allows you to track your website visitors. I have NOT used this tool in almost a decade. I am NOT a big fan of Google Corporation and attempt to reduce my reliance on them.
However, at times it can by quite difficult to avoid their services. In order to use Google Analytics, you must create a Google account. Then you must login and obtain some code that you will inject into any web page and or website that you have control over.
There are some free plugins available for content management systems like WordPress. These plugins will inject this Google Analytics code into every WordPress post and page for you. Google Analytics can slow down your website.
Besides what other data does Google actually track from your website that they do NOT tell you about? If you are a beginner hosting websites you may want to use Google Analytics so that you learn how to properly track website visitors. I will say this about Google Analytics, for a free tool, you receive quite a bit of data regarding your web traffic.
Currently, I do NOT obsess over reviewing my web traffic reports. However, reviewing web traffic reports, like Google Analytics can help you with your search engine optimization campaigns. You can find out this type of information about your web visitors:
* visitors per day
* unique visitors per day
* repeat visitors
* visitor time on your website
* keyword searches
* organic traffic
* referral traffic
* referring website
* visitor activity
* bounce percentage
* pages per session
* average session time
* type of device used
The list goes on and on and on. You may find some of this data valuable. I am more concerned with creating content and attracting visitors then obviously worrying about my website statistics.
However, with a free tool like Google Analytics you can learn how to track your website visitors. There may be some data that helps you attract more traffic. You might be able to find out what is working on your website and vice versa.
This could be useful to find out what is NOT working on your website. Once you have mastered Google Analytics, perhaps you may want to use a tool that will help you convert those website visitors.
Open Web Analytics is free and open source website visitor tracking software. This tool requires that you copy and pasted either JavaScript or PHP code into your websites index.html or index.php file. For example if you are using WordPress content management system then you would need to add this code to your index.php file.
One problem with this scenario is that you are editing a WordPress core file which will get over written each time you upgrade WordPress. Also, you may not want to get into the habit of editing WordPress core files. I searched for a n Open Web Analytics plugin that would inject code into each WordPress post or page so that I could track website visitors.
I found such a plugin called Open Web Analytics Plugin by Christian Schmidt. However, this plugin was developed nearly 7 years ago. This plugin may or may NOT work with newer WordPress versions.
Looks as if this plugin was abandoned years ago. Proceed with caution and AnetComputers.com is not responsible for problems with your website. I will now give you instructions on how to install and configure this plugin.
Login to your WordPress dashboard. Click on “Plugins”. Now click on “Add New”.
Type in “owa” without quotes into a search box. Look for “Open Web Analytics Plugin” by Christian Schmidt. Click on “Install Now”.
Click on OK at the “Are you sure you want to install this plugin now” warning pop up. The plugin should download and install. Click on “Activate” to make this plugin live.
Under “Settings” there will be an option titled apropos “Open Web Analytics”. Choose that option and you will taken to this plugins settings. This is where you configure this plugin to grab data from open web analytics that you already installed.
You have to enter your open web analytics site ID into the first field. You must login with your admin account into the open web analytics tracking system. Click on “Edit Profile” for the website that you want to integrate with WordPress.
You will see your “Site ID” under “Site Profile”. This is a lengthy alphanumerical string. Copy and paste this site ID into the first configuration field in the WordPress plugin configuration. You can have this plugin track “Downloads”.
You can add in the host name of the server where you installed open web analytics. This is entirely optional. For example I would enter in www.anetcomputers.com.
The “Base URL of installation” should already be filled in with /owa/. For example if you installed open web analytics into the owa directory under your web root, then you should see /owa/. However, if you changed the installation folder on your web server from /owa/ to say /stats/ then you want to change /owa/ to /stats/ in this field. You can optionally track the admin user with this tool.
Place a check next to “Track the admin user too”. Now click on “Update Settings”. Now you get to test if this plugin is working. Browse to your website so that this open web analytics detects a visitor.
In the open web analytics administrator back end you should see:
0 Visits 0 Page Views 0.00 % Bounce Rate
Now that you just visited your website, you should see some statistics for your website. Click on “Tracked Sites” from the main administrator dashboard. AnetComputers.com should show at least this:
1 Visits 1 Page Views 100.00 % Bounce Rate
If you were to click on an addition page you should see this:
1 Visits 2 Page Views 0.00 % Bounce Rate
This plugin injects tracking code into each WordPress post and page. You should begin to see more website statistics now that you have properly configured this plugin. This saves you the time from having to manually copy JavaScript or PHP code into your website index.html or index.php file.
Open Web Analytics is free and open source software that helps you track your website visitors. This software is similar to Google Analytics. Once upon a time there was some other free open source software called Trace Watch.
However, that software is no longer supported. I then turned towards Open Web Analytics, when I had either my own virtual private server or physical web server. Then I eventually went back to using shared web hosting from Namecheap.
I turned to using the Awstats that was already installed. Now, I just earlier this year purchased virtual private server space. I am going to show you how to install Open Web Analytics.
This should take you around 10 minutes if you are familiar with the concept of installing software on your own virtual private or dedicated server. I would say in my opinion most shared hosting providers will not give you root access therefore you most likely will not be able to install this website analytics software on shared hosting. You will need to download a tarball.
The most recent version is 1.6.2. You will need to decompress this tarball. It will create a “owa” folder with all the installation files.
Now you want to upload this folder to your web server. You will most likely use file transfer protocol to upload this folder. You can upload it to your website root folder.
For example /home/user/public_html/. Also, you can create a folder off of your website root and upload the folder contents there.
/home/user/analytics/owa
Once you have successfully uploaded the owa folder to your web server, you will be creating a MySQL database. You will need to access your MySQL server via command line or with phpMyAdmin. Click on “Databases” in phpMyAdmin.
The rest of these instructions will assume you are using phpMyAdmin. In the “Create a database” field enter in the name of your owa database. For example owadb.
You can either choose a “Collation” type from a drop down menu or just leave that setting alone. Now click on “Create” button. You have just created the database that Open Web Analytics will be using.
This database has no tables. Now you need to click on “Privileges”. You will need to browse back to Home in phpMyAdmin and then click on “Privileges”.
Place a check box next to at least one already created and configured user. You are giving this MySQL username access privileges to this newly created database. Look for “Add privileges on the following database”.
Choose your newly created owadb database from this drop down list. Click on “Check All” next to “Database specific privileges”. Now you remove the check next to “GRANT” and click on “Go”.
Now you browse to the install path in your web browser. For example since I uploaded owa to the website root folder I will need to browse to this path:
http://anetcomputers.com/owa/install.php
You should see an Open Web Analytics Installer screen. Now click on “Let’s Get Started…” to begin this installation. You should see a “Configuration Settings” screen.
You should not need to change your “URL of OWA”. Type in localhost in “Database Host” field. Type in the name of your database in this example owadb into the “Database Name” field.
Type into the “Database User” field the MySQL user earlier that you gave privileges to. For example user. You will need to enter in the password associated with “user” into the “Database Password” field. Click on the “Continue” button.
Under “Site Domain” field enter the domain of the website you are going to track visitors for. This example would be anetcomputers.com. Now enter in your email address in case you forget your password for Open Web Analytics.
You are actually creating your admin login for this tool. Enter in a password for the email address you just typed in earlier. Remember this email address and password will allow you to administrate this website tracking software.
You should see a final “Success…Installation is Complete” page. You have just installed Open Web Analytics onto your web server. You should see the login and password information on this page.
For example:
admin
admin123
Click on “Login and generate a site tracker”. This will take you to the Open Web Analytics login page. Login with your admin username and password just created.
Now you will be presented with tracking code. This is just computer code that you will copy and paste into your website. There is both JavaScript and PHP code available.
You want to ssh into your website. Also, you will want to either login with the root account or sudo to root. You will now be pasting this code into either the index.html or index.php file on your web server.
This depends on whether or not you are using a content management system like WordPress. You can use a text editor like vi. Make sure to write the file changes by typing :wq!
Now you can test your website tracking. Test a web page on your website by browsing to a page. For example you would browse to anetcomputers.com.
This also tests to make certain this software does not conflict with your website. If you receive a blank page then obviously there is a problem. Click on “Tracked Sites”.
You should see your website in this list. If you properly added the tracking code, then you should already see some statistics. To view more detailed information, you want to click on “View Reports”.
You can change how Open Web Analytics tracks visitors by clicking on “Main Configuration”. User Management allows you to add additional users that will have access to this tool. Tracking additional websites is also available with this software.
You would just follow the steps above to add an additional website. Click on “Add New”. I do NOT know if there is a limit to how many websites you can track visitors with this tool.
This is my preferred website analytics tool. Once upon a time, I used Google Analytics. That tracking system would slow down my website(s) and who knows what Google does with all that data.
I decided to no longer use a virtual private server and instead build my own web server. I obtained a Comcast Xfinity business class broadband service. As long as you have a business class service, then you can physically host your own websites.
Comcast will most likely block your hyper text transfer protocol traffic with one of their residential Internet services. Anyways, one predicament of maintaining your own web server, is what operating system and or web serving software to use. I tried for days if NOT weeks to install a web server manually.
This is often times called a Linux Apache Mysql PHP server. What I could not over come was some of the configuration files for hosting multiple websites. I finally gave up and started researching free open source multi website control panels.
I finally found my solution for an easy hosting control panel, called ISPConfig. I had used cPanel for years. However, cPanel requires a monthly subscription.
ISPConfig is one of the first free open source hosting control panels I tried. The installation can have quite a bit of a learning curve. Depending on what Linux distribution you install, you might end up using the ISPConfig installation script.
This installation script requires that you answer some web hosting technical questions. You will need to know and understand how a website actually works on the server end. Once you are able to successfully install ISPConfig 3, then this web hosting control panel could be classified as easy.
ISPConfig is just as easy to use as cPanel. However, there is a lack of documentation as the developers require that you purchase the user manual. I was able to find most if not all of my questions answered on their public forums.
I was able to configure and maintain two wordpress websites for four years. I was able to configure email as well. ISPConfig has a web based administrator interface.
Most if not all tasks that you can complete in cPanel can completed in ISPConfig. You can access the live online demo for free. You can even demo the administrator interface.
With anything that is new, their will become a learning curve. However, once you familiarize yourself with the web based interface, you will be up in running in no time. I actually because of a lack of money, had to abandon my business class internet and thus my own physical web server.
I am paying very little for a virtual private server currently. I tried installing ISPConfig with a quick installer. However, it failed and I decided to install Centos web panel.
However, I am considering installing ISPConfig 3 again. I was in a bit of a rush to move three websites from a yearly shared hosting plan. I would just need to provision my virtual private server again and restore all three websites.
ISPConfig 3 has four major sections where you maintain your website(s).
* sites
* email
* domain name system
* virtual server
Also, you can actually use ISPConfig 3 to resell web space. You just create separate clients. I was pleasantly surprised with the ease and speed of maintaining a web server.
Most major tools are at your finger tips so that you can maintain multiple websites. Installing WordPress is straight forward. Initially, I had installed ISPConfig 3 on a minimal version of Ubuntu server.
However, when I recently tried installing it, I was using a minimal server version of Centos. This could be the problem. Creating email inboxes was simple.
Also, you can create catch all inboxes with ISPConfig 3. Adding an Internet protocol address is simple as well. Many tasks like adding domains and sub domains only require a couple of mouse clicks.
I was able to maintain multiple websites with ISPConfig quite quickly just like I had before with cPanel. ISPConfig 3 supports the following Linux distributions:
* debian
* ubuntu
* centos
* fedora
* open suse
There is a separate billing module that you can purchase if you want to become a web hosting seller.
I finally found two alternative web browsers to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microst Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Apple Safari, Opera, and the list goes on. I have been using Qupzilla 2.2.6 for months now as my main web browser of choice. However, the developer has decided to no longer support Qupzilla.
This same developer created a new web browser called Falkon which is actually based upon Qupzilla. The official version of Falkon has finally been released. Falkon 3.0.1 is now available for download.
This web browser is free and open source software. You can install it on both Linux and Microsoft windows based operating systems. There was a pre-release version of Falkon 3.0.0 available since February.
Normally, I do NOT fuck with alpha and beta software. However, since this was considered a pre-release I tested this web browser out. The graphical user interface is almost exactly like Qupzilla.
However, when I tested it there were a few areas that became problematic. Falkon has been my backup web browser to Qupzilla for the past three months. Now that this alternative web browsers official release is here, I may make Falkon my main web browser of choice.
Falkon 3.0.1 official release is the first ever bug fix version. This version was released on May eight two thousand eighteen. Falkon is NOT yet available for Macintosh operating system.
Amazingly, the developer is working on a Macintosh version. You can install Falkon as a stand alone application or use it as a portable application. Fourteen bugs were fixed in this first ever official Falcon web browser 3.0.1.
* profile migration for QupZilla
* wrong form data
* wrong back and forward buttons
* loading uniform resource locator 20%
* download text files
* download manager not closing restored tabs
* location bar site icon
* QtWebEngine 5.11 problems
* speed dial blank
* html full screen
* speed dial settings
* crashed sessions
* bookmarks toolbar height
* collapsed parent
* opening new window
Falkon is an official KDE project. This project supports the three major operating systems. Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh, and Linux. Microsoft Windows 7, Microsoft Windows 8, and Microsoft Windows 10 operating systems are supported.
Mainstream Linux distributions are supported. Since the first official release of alternative web browsers Falkon web is NOT yet available for Macintosh operating system, then I do NOT know what versions of Macintosh operating system are supported. There are both x86 32 bit and x64 64 bit web browser version available.
For now I am pleased with both Falkon and Qupzilla. I will most likely make Falkon my main web browser of choice and keep Qupzilla around as a backup. Finally, some decent web browsers around that do NOT fucking drive me up a wall like the mainstream web browsers do.
Although I admit that this my dogmatic subjective perspective vantage point.
