@GergelyOrosz If you're on Android, FreeOTP+ is great (and open source): https://t.co/cLkTWd4jEp

Surviving Windows involves a daily number of explorer.exe restarts. I've got a "Restart Explorer.bat" Batch script on all Windows 10 desktops containing:
taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
start explorer.exe

@BrianIKamanzi There are also "debloat Windows 11" scripts/apps online that disable some unneeded Windows services/telemetry. I would use these with caution or at least find one that has been vetted by a reputable person/org.

@BrianIKamanzi Otherwise upgrading your RAM (if possible) and upgrading to a SSD if you have a HDD are recommended. Can also take a look at the top processes in Task Manager for the culprit processes. Uninstall an software you don't use etc.

The SA Home Affairs login page takes ~9.7s to load. Actually logging in takes ~3.5min🤯. I don't know if I'm ever going to receive the OTP to complete my login.

There must be someone manually fetching data from the database over there.

@circlingthesun @firefox Gotta love good error messages.

My two year old knows the word sanitizer. Thanks Covid.

@popey Sort by largest desc. Delete the largest ones I don't need. Ignore everything else.

@CassidyJames So without changing displays, you would run a 4k 27" at 1x scaling @ 1440p instead to avoid fractional scaling?

[Robert Scott @scobrot]

@CassidyJames Great, thanks. It appears that on Windows (at least) at fractional scaling, anything that is rasterized already will appear blurry (viewing images) but a fair number of apps appear crisp - I imagine as they are scaling in their rasterization phase based on the desktop scaling.

[Robert Scott @scobrot]

@CassidyJames Thoughts on 4k vs QHD at 27"?

Why is juice all 100% bullshit?

@babusinyoni 😁 Will have to check it out. I've been using the features of LibreOffice to do something along these lines for about 8 years now: https://t.co/iDPhUctXg4

I'm always a bit sceptical of no-code but if it empowers users then awesome.
