TOR (The Onion Router) versus Facebook

If logging into Facebook via TOR, The Onion Router anonymizing IP masking tools, Facebook will give you a lot of grief over doing so...

Transitioning to Odoo 13
-
So, at long last I think we have found a complete replacement for Plone. It breaks my heart that the Plone developer community has fallen apart so badly, but it has been too many years of pain since the Plone 5.x approach has continued down a path that is too far off track from previous versions and typical open source. We are migrating to Odoo 13 Community Edition.

Trick to get New Skype for Linux working with alternate Microphone
-
It took several false starts before I finally figured this out. The new Skype for Linux (2017) is no longer a separate dedicated application, it is a Chromium web app. This version of Skype has no options for changing default microphone! But, here's the trick...

Trying to get Plone working on OpenBSD (part deux) - SUCCESS! (update: well, mostly)
-
Years ago I fought with trying to get Plone to work on OpenBSD, to no avail. Recently I was able to get Plone 4.3 working on OpenBSD 6.0, but not Plone 5.0.6.. I was finally able to get Plone 5.0.7 Unified Installer working on OpenBSD 6.1!

Trying to no longer use Google Search
-
Since I noticed it as a default in the TOR (The Onion Router by EFF.org http://tor.eff.org) I've decided to remove Google Search, and setup https://ixquick.com as my default search engine for a while (it claims to keep your searching private).

Trying to run multiple selenium 3 chrome driver nodes per AWS spot instance: goal 5k users minimum
-
I am tasked with extensive load testing of Jitsi and related components. There have been a number of challenges just getting the tests to work on the scale needed (minimum 5k users, preferably 20k, but that can be extrapolated from the 5k). But just trying to get to 5k continues to be a challenge due being back in the 1970s and the popularity of "the cloud". I once again have to deal with the equivalent of the IBM engineers and begging for resource access to do my job... Anyway, here are updates on how it is going...

Uh Oh, Odoo Community Forum Not so Open?
-
I recently posted an Odoo community forum question asking about any options exporting from a newer version (Odoo 13), backwards to an older edition (Odoo 12). They instead tagged it as "not a question" and now it doesn't appear to show up on the community site even when searching for it. This is very dishonest, not open, and worrisome that they have a policy of covering up such questions. That worries me...

Unofficial Penpot Manual Installation Guide for Debian 12
-
Penpot opensource free self-hostable server (Figma clone) does not support manual install. They want everyone to use their SaaS cloud service or if self-hosting, use containerized versions. Here are instructions, from (as they suggested) reverse engineering their Docker setup, for a manual setup on Debian 12. YMMV.
