Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

yeah that way you can weed out the user error most of the time

Yup. It's a part of the bug triage. If I am to triage a bug on the Lubuntu site, I'll make sure to recreate it personally OR substantiate the bug with someone else's report/me-too report.

Speaking of Lubuntu, they listed me in 'contributors' in the release notes of 21.10. I suppose that means I'm formally a member, but they haven't had time to schedule my meeting and do my member induction.

Also, since September 23rd I have had only one day with fewer than 100 visitors on https://linux-tips.us. By the way, if you do click on that link, it'd be awesome if you hit an ad or two! ;-)

LOL I thought you had it whitelisted for the site from previous clicks. Thanks! I like seeing what the bid fluctuations are so that I can better understand Google's AdSense. It lets me know what kind of content is being loaded with which page - when it's not my IP address, a VPN, or anyone with a browsing history that shares commonalities with mine. (Poal is not a commonality, because Google's Analytics isn't used here.)

So, I can piece together the time of your click with the page clicked on and see what the bidders are willing to pay to host on the site.

The site's actually doing amazingly well. It's even got an Alexa rank.

Most sites get no traffic. Zero traffic to speak of - like less than a single visitor per day.

There are millions and millions websites. My site's already in the 5,000,000 group. So, I'm steadily climbing the ranks.

On the other hand, if dollars were the metric, I'm way below water with this one. I've invested like 400 hours in this site. I've made pretty much no money to speak of. Strangely, I'm okay with that.
