@… the tricky thing about Windows is that I also need to know what terminal type you’re using https://www.11ty.dev/docs/terminal-window/#windows

"Further, outdated rules on the use of cookies and other tracking technologies are still governing the protection of the user’s terminal equipment and the access and collection to information from user’s terminal equipment.

... an anecdote from IBM's Yorktown Heights Research Center. When a
programmer used his new computer terminal, all was fine when he was sitting

behavior was 100 percent repeatable: he could always log in when sitting and
never when standing.
Most of us just sit back and marvel at such a story; how could that terminal

One couple, who “met” on the site, asked me to officiate their wedding. (1/3)
