Here is a detailed information for disadvantages of "Modern" S0 standby sleep and what options we have to replace legacy Sleep mode.

Information about power consumption during different Standby Sleep modes here.

S0 sleep and battery

During S0 sleep your computer still uses power. And it uses significantly more power than in S3 sleep. Your CPU is active. Your disks are active. Your network hardware could be active all the time.

So what happens when you use your PC, your battery enters in critically low level, your computer enters into sleep and you connect it to adapter after few days? 

Sleep is not visible from Shut down menu?

The problem

You have installed graphics video card drivers. They work fine and updated. But "Sleep" is still missing from "Shutdown" menu?

Customizations in Classic Editor in Wordpress could be done by "Advanced TinyMCE Configuration" plugin. 

How it works?

Classic Editor in Wordpress is based on TinyMCE editor. Wordpress instructs it how to act, how to look as UI.

"Advanced TinyMCE Configuration" changes TinyMCE startup configuration.

DreamsTime free – what is the catch? What is legal?

You could see that DreamsTime offer a week of free trial. 

Could you get some benefits from DreamsTime free?

Short answer it NO – in almost all cases you could take no benefits from the free period.

No? Why?

For your free period you receive images with watermarks only.

In fact they cannot be used for almost nothing, not (only) because of watermarks but because of legal restrictions:

DreamsTime "ERROR: The login must contain only alphanumeric characters."

Error message in DreamsTime

 If you cannot find AutoSSL in cPanel apps, it is because it is not mentioned in main screen with all apps.

It is not missing, it is just hidden. So how could we start AutoSSL? 

Stop Wordpress from removing Microdata from pages and posts

Do you experience Microdata disappears from your pages and posts?

What makes Wordpress remove Microdata data?

It happens within Classic Editor or in Block Editor in sections managed by Classic Editor. I experienced that after saving my content.

It happens because the editor knows which attributes are used in standard HTML pages and it encounters new and unknown attributes. The editor decides that they are not needed and removes them.

Partial solution

One part of the solution is written in this page.

Complete solution

So here are instructions to solve the whole problem:

1. Install this plugin - Advanced TinyMCE Configuration Plugin
2. Dont worry that the plugin is old. It works flowlessly with Wordpress 6.2.x. I guess it would work after years because there is almost no changes in Classical editor. 
3. Enter this option name: extended_valid_elements
4. The option value you want to add: @[itemscope|itemtype|itemid|itemprop|content],div,span,h1,h2,h2,h4,h5,h6time[datetime]

Result

You will keep your Schema Microdata inside your content. Movies, recipes, movies, real estate software products, flights, images, video... everything All your content would be rated better in search engines because Google puts this content in top position. Boost your content with Rich snippets.

Check your results

You could use the official validator from schema or to check your pages.

Unsupported glossary source and target language pair - DeepL

Unsupported glossary source and target language pair

DeepL API gives you this error because you missed to get the fact glossaries in DeepL are extremely reduced as functionality.

Error text is:

{"message":"Unsupported glossary source and target language pair"}

DeepL API documentation says that only these pairs of languages are supported:

Sale of FREE GPL products - the new fashion trend

GPL license

GPL license defines that a product could be used free. 

GPL characteristics:

• Can be used commercially
• Can be modified
• Can be distributed
• Cannot be sub-licensed
• Cannot be hold liable 
• MUST disclose source
• Not forbidden GPL software to be sold. 

So what is getting so popular is that software providers start selling the software. Why? Because they are not forbidden to do so.

Customers could obtain source code freely but most of them do not know it, so they buy it. For really high price.

Examples

WPML - translation plugin for Wordpress

PorkBun automatically deletes some Wordpress plugins

 If you wonder why some of your plugins disappear from your PorkBun hosted account, they could be deleted by PorkBun.

There is a set of plugins that PorkBun doesn't like. Actual list with them is written here.

One of reasons PorkBun does remove plugins is that (according PorkBun) they are slow. They have different concerns for others. Soo, you need to go for alternatives.

We provide a cached version of the list with their blocked plugins:

Interview questions for Java developers

Tips for preparing for a Java developer interview:

1. Review Java fundamentals: It is important to have a good understanding of the core concepts of Java such as Object-Oriented Programming, Data Structures, Algorithms, Exception Handling, and Multithreading.

2. Know the basics of frameworks and libraries: Familiarize yourself with popular Java frameworks and libraries like Spring, Hibernate, Maven, and JUnit.

3. Understand the interview format: Find out what type of interview you will be having. Will it be a technical interview or a behavioral interview? Knowing the interview format in advance can help you prepare better.

4. Research the company: Get to know the company you are interviewing with. Look at their website, read up on their products, and try to get a sense of their company culture.

5. Prepare questions to ask: Have some questions prepared to ask your interviewer about the company, the role, and the team you would be working with.

6. Be confident: Remember to be confident in your abilities and focus on showcasing your strengths during the interview.

7. Practice coding: Brush up on your coding skills by practicing coding problems on platforms like LeetCode or HackerRank. This will help you develop your problem-solving skills and also give you an opportunity to practice coding under pressure.

If you want to check real questions from Java Interviews, check the link. There is a lot of practical information. Research over pages inside that site could save you a lot of research. 

Gmail uploads files in Drive even small files are attached - "Your files are larger than 25 MB. They will be sent as Google Drive links."

It happens with me when attaching images. Their total size is much less than 25MB. Today it happens with images with total size of 7MB.

There is a bug report in google support center from 2020. The bug is still not fixed.

It seems as a workaround to "drag and drop" files into the area of your email. This would include the files inline.

Not the real solution but it works. Maybe we will need to wait few more years Google to fix this in GMail.

Acronis backup software does not support exFAT - Acronis Cyber Protect, Acronis True Image, etc

Acronis backup software cannot read files inside exFAT. It includes Acronis Cyber Protect, Acronis True Image.

Acronis software seems full of limitations and exFAT confirms it one more time.

exFAT 

exFAT is introduced in 2006. Even Windows XP has support for it.

After August 2019, Microsoft published its specification.

It is even more interesting what Acronis support says about it:

"The issue here is that exFAT requires extra software to work in a Linux environment (Fuse) which is not included in the standard Acronis linux based rescue media."

FUSE

In fact FUSE is open software. What FUSE wiki page says is that 

"FUSE was merged into the mainstream Linux kernel tree in kernel version 2.6.14.".

That kernel was released in October 2005.

Delay of 18 years

So Acronis is out-of-date with about 18 years.

People want to know is Acronis ATI, Acronis ACP just a software produced buy a school boy or something designed to be used in companies and in corporation?

Affected software

Acronis Cyber Protect, Acronis True Image and many other :)

Our recommendation

Do not use Acronis in any case. Never ever. For anything.

Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040255 - Error from CDBurnXP solved

CDBurnXP shows this message when disk is low quality.

Error text:

Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040255

Disk is not dead!

In my case Disk is not dead! 

Sometimes disk could be burned with CDBurnXP. Try few times. 

If it didn't help, try different speed - in my case higher speeds had higher probability rates.

If it didn't help, try to finalize disk.

 I hope its a solution for you too.
