That looks like the font (just with a quick look at the glyphs), but it has been thickened up for the embroidery. At least for a couple of the characters.

Ok, so the app is not local. When I use browser for gui, it's with a C backend for the local host and everything is local and it's not tied to the .config folder of the browser (which is important given the next bit) and can directly interface with hardware due to that backend. Be careful...

Are you just using the browser for the GUI or actually using the browser for both GUI and logic? Hopefully, the former and using a local server to handle communication with local hardware, otherwise be limited to whatever hardware the browser supports in it's CORs related sandbox and that may...

Imagine if their desktop app was actually used as a vector to corrupt your computer and since it came from the backup vendor, your backups were corrupted as well. While I'm only aware of one instance of this happening (at least made the round with articles) it has happened.

Thick or thin storage objects?

If "you" are only going to have one source of backup, you mentioned Carbonite. I would actually suggest throwing a backup on an external drive that you take home with you. I personally, this is just me mind you, wouldn't use a 3rd party backup as the sole source of the backup. I wouldn't use...

Even with a local user (which they are pushing to get around that, making it harder and harder, certainly for the "normie" to create a local account (the fact that the first local account that one creates is the admin account and can be done without a p/w is also something that I don't like, but...

Yes, FF allows quite a bit of things, even sometimes on the violation of CORS, but I digress. Oh no, I certainly don't blame you there, that's why I haven't been on Windows (or Mac) since Win 7 was new. However, MS has their hands (even with Linux) in many pies (same with Google), so not...

Not to sure about that. The fact that more and more devices require perpetual internet access, the less I trust them. Now, the one issue that Windows does have is that it tends to rebuke 3rd party browsers (FF has been going downhill as well, I used to keep it around just to have something...

If it's adding printers, it's probably hooking up to the website (webview is just a minified browser, most apps on mobile phones use this) that needs authentication in order to add the printer. This actually isn't a Windows specific issue. The devs of the program have to hook into this lib in...

I have never actually considered logitech high end. I liked their mxmaster mouse, that was around $100 when I got it (I'm either stylus or keyboard at this point, rarely use a traditional mouse, so I haven't kept up with it too much). But what's typically the higher end, $160-$170? Maybe they...

I would agree, plus, I would suggest getting off a RAID 1. Data loss can be a big thing, either accidental or otherwise due to how quickly things propagate to the mirrored drive.

I did do the same thing with regard to drives, started off at a certain level, expanded pools (in one instances added a pool), got different drive sizes (although maybe I have replaced all of the old ones by now, hard to remember, I've slept since I switched over). I don't think daisy chaining...

Could also consider compressing in some archive format to help with space as well. General question out there: What RAID (0, 1, 5, 6, 10 I believe are the most common setups for situations such as everyone here, I use RAID 6) level does everyone use? Some, if they do use it, could be...

When it comes time to replace a NAS drive, that process will bare itself out at that point. Just about anything would be better in that case. Shoot, even taking an external drive or two and manually doing that would be infinitely better compared to nothing at all.

You can do that with TrueNAS as well. I don't, however, allow for files to be accessed offsite. If it's not backing up to my other offsite TrueNAS devices, that port is closed. It can be done and even in an isolated way, but I prefer local access only. Has Synology improved the resilvering...

Yea, there are some things, given certain sizes, that can directly translate, but most of the time, slight changes have to happen in order to fit the physical nature of thread. And it's not always in favor of simplicity (that's the irony, people think that going simple saves them, it doesn't in...

Most embroidery fonts are basterdizations of traditional fonts in order to fit the medium's production quirks. If you only need that copy, just digitize it from the get go. If needing it for other embroidery, same thing. Now if you need other letters, just pick a close one and rock with it.

Most of the big companies, CC vendors etc are hit more compared to what we hear about and by the time that we hear about them being hit and having paid the ransomware, it's a year or so after the event. The key thing is that they don't have any respect for the data that they are holding, in...

Bare in mind as well, if these online providers store or transmit files through other countries, they are subject to those rules as well (which is signed off by the customers("you") in the EULA that probably didn't read). Using some of MS' office suite means your sharing telemetry with I think...
