This should be fixed now - it was just because the front-page code that handles the comments doesn't check the forum settings - as they're different systems.

Can confirm that the ignore feature is removed for non-subscribers on the FP.

Yes the Ignore feature has been disabled for all groups. The reason is we should not be ignoring problematic members; if there is a member/post you have issue with please report it so staff may review the content.

This way problematic members do not go unnoticed by staff for extended periods of time and we can take action if needed to keep the community a nice and friendly place to visit :)

 

Since all questions have been answered and we have confirmed the ignore feature will not be returning I will go ahead and close this thread.

    • A rotten article full of handwaving of anti-consumer practices. Aside from the fact that no, not even close to every piece of major software collects information about its users, ethical developers make such telemetry opt-in and allow it to be completely disabled. To use KDE Plasma as an example, you're shown a greeter upon first boot that gives users the option to send the developers telemetry, with the default being off and 'off' actually meaning off. Windows 10 has never offered that capability - only a promise that Microsoft will slurp up less of your data if you spend time tweaking 50 different privacy settings. There is still absolutely no way to completely opt out of sending Microsoft telemetry in any version of Windows 10 (or 11, naturally). Even using group policy in Enterprise editions only allows you to reduce telemetry to the bare minimum. Home-focused editions don't even get that option. Articles like this dismissing user privacy concerns as "FUD" are a part of the reason Microsoft felt confident enough to go so much further with Windows 11. I guess you get what you deserve in that respect. Personally, I finally made the move to Linux after 15 years or so of dabbling with it, but never really considering a permanent switch. Enjoy your bright, shiny Windows future. You asked for it, after all.
    • Microsoft shares Defender update for new Windows 11/10 ISO installs by Sayan Sen Aside from new Windows setup and recovery updates, Microsoft has also published a new Defender update for Windows 11/10/Server installation images this week. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.431.54.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 (Enterprise, Pro, and Home editions), Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.431.452.0 was released this past week adds threat detections for various backdoor and phishing exploits, trojans, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.431.155.0 at the time of writing.
    • Probably.   You'll probably want to see what channels you'd pick up by entering your zip code here... https://www.channelmaster.com/pages/free-tv-channels   With respect to the antenna and box you selected... no idea.  They are both non-brand names and cheap.  So...sure.  I have no idea how that box records...but it's listed as a feature. Also...I have no recommendations.  I haven't recorded from a cable box (ClearQAM) in over 10 years (maybe 20?).  This was Windows Media Center/MythTV days.  My Hauppauge is just collecting dust somewhere in my expansion slot bin.
    • Yea, I tried to do that with my janky WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER Frankenstein, and it failed miserably.
