Older people (seen it at 65+) will just click the nag without knowing what the button does and end up beaming up all photos to google cloud with no ability to disable the nag (it keeps showing up after a while) even when dismissed. If you are concerned about your data privacy, you may want to check on what photos of say your kids your parents are beaming up to google without their or your knowledge.

Back in the day, old newspapers were used as toilet paper. It was a ceremony for my late cousin to cut the newspapers into blocks and neatly pack them in the outdoor toilet. You’d have a choice of some water from a bottle, and the old newspapers. A company of a few flies and no light. But when you went in there while the sun was out, reading whatever was on the cutouts was the obvious thing to do. Not just stare at the cracks in the wooden door in front of you.

I'm working on https://fdeploy.com

fDeploy is a self-hosted Windows deployment automation tool — a lightweight, on-prem alternative to Octopus Deploy. It consists of a Server (Windows service with a Web UI) that orchestrates releases, and Agents installed on target windows machines that execute deployment steps (IIS sites, file copies, scripts, etc.) across environments.
