Notepad++ needs a manual update

Posted by: robkelk - 12-10-2025, 06:52 AM - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (2)

Version 8.8.9 was just released yesterday to mitigate a hijacking of the Notepad++ updater that redirects it to malicious servers, and then tricks people into downloading malware, thinking they're downloading the latest software release.

For obvious reasons, it won't be on the Notepad++ updater if your installation has been hijacked, so you'll have to download and install it manually.

(And if you're running Windows and aren't using Notepad++ as your plain-text editor, you should consider switching. It doesn't have any AI.)

Making Space

Terr asked, so you all shall receive Big Grin

"Well... here it is," AJ said, punching in a short security code. The hatchway hissed open, revealing the room beyond. Katy stepped in, then slowed, taking in the sight. She glanced back over her shoulder at AJ, then unrolled the blueprint she'd been given, wincing a little at having to handle -- ugh -- hardcopy, and peered at it. Then back up at the room. Then back down at the specs AJ had drawn up. The top of the sheet was labeled 'Barracks', though that word had been crossed out; under it was scribbled 'Sabre Hotel', also crossed out, and lastly the simple word 'Lodgings'. One wall was given over to two levels of something that the callout labeled 'modular housing units'; hotel rooms, in other words. Along the other wall (labeled 'Services') were various rooms for laundry, a convenience store (?), a dog park (?!), and so on. Total space requirements such-and-such... approximately -- she did some quick mental math -- fifty times as much volume as the room provided.

Katy looked up from the blueprints and caught AJ's eye. AJ flushed.

"Okay, so it's a little... ambitious."

"You could excavate..."

AJ winced. "Have you tried to get permits for new excavations? Maybe if we were in Faultline, but here?"

"You could take out the dance club," Katy pointed out reasonably, nodding down the hall. Her brow furrowed. "Just how did you get a giant aquarium in there, anyway?"

"Water controller," AJ answered, shrugging. "And I can't remove the Frostfire Club! That's where we have Taco Night!"

"I can't believe you named your club after that jerk." Katy shook her head.

"He's gotten better," AJ said defensively. "Anyway... can you help?"

Katy scratched thoughtfully at her chin. "You know, I've been working on my compression pouches lately. I'm pretty sure I can set up field emitters here... and here... and right there... and shunt this entire room into a pocket dimension. That'll give you plenty of space for all this... stuff."

AJ blinked. "Wow, I, uh... I was just hoping you could help me decide what to keep and what to cut from the blueprints."

It was Katy's turn to blink. "Oh. Well, we could do that instead, I guess..."

"No, no, if you can make this room bigger, that's perfect!"

Katy grinned and cracked her knuckles. "Let's do this!"

"Sylia is going to kill me," AJ moaned, staring aghast at the devastation.

"She won't kill you," Katy said reassuringly.

"Rule six: members are personally responsible for damage to the organization's equipment unless the damage was unavoidable," AJ quoted darkly. "Penalty clause: violating these rules can result in death."

Katy blinked. "Wow, you guys are strict."

"Not helping!"

"Okay, well, look at it this way: once you do get the permits, the excavation is already done?"

"REALLY NOT HELPING!"

The Golden Rule

Posted by: Sofaspud - 11-30-2025, 05:48 PM - Forum: The Legendary - Replies (3)

... is the new Task Force as of the latest issue (page?) and boy howdy is it a hoot! No spoilers, but: Length felt just about right, difficulty curve was chef's kiss, and the set pieces were really, really well done. I absolutely love that Knockback has a legit purpose now. And I didn't even know the ancient creaky CoH engine could DO that (and I've looked into the code!).

In addition, we have finally discovered Terrence Knight's true weakness. Poor Terr. Big Grin

Anyway, point is I really like the new TF and while I know things have died down on the CoH front around here, if you're at all interested in getting your tights on, I for one would run this one over and over again. Is it the new default for when we hate the WST, aka the Roman Punching Party? Not quite. But it's close!

	Thought folks would want to know, since I only hear about it in relation to their 2025 Black Friday sale. (Coupon code for that is on the front page of their website, as I post this.) They also stock some titles from Discotek Media and Media Blasters. https://www.mediaocd.com/

Something is wrong with my email

Posted by: Bob Schroeck - 11-22-2025, 10:14 AM - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (1)

	I've just realized that my eclipse.net address hasn't received any mail at all -- not even spam caught by my provider's spam filter -- since the 19th. If anyone has sent me anything in the last few days, it's somewhere in hyperspace somewhere. I've submitted a ticket with Netcarrier. Let's see how fast it gets resolved.

Anyone else having trouble reaching SB?

	According to the check-if-it-'s-up sites it's fine, but I haven 't gptten so much as an error code for hours, just empty tabs that neither load nor time out.
