Update to New Micorsoft Edge

 With Windows 10, Microsoft Edge has never been "my thing," however, I have found some reasons to update/upgrade.

Edge had strange bugs and it started appearing to one workstation at a time, and for some computers, problems never happened.

I have countless programs on my workstation and my PC is on for almost 365 days a year, and the Edge didn't show any sign of problems.  So I've just updated to the new Edge.


Previous version had strange bug that it wouldn't open.  Once it's opened, it will flash for a fraction of a second then disappears.  Thus many users reported to me that links from email didn't work.  Many of my clients use old IE or Chrome, but usually their default browser is left as MS Edge.  When they click on email links, it would open the URL with Edge, but it disappears very quickly.

I've tried applying many fixes know around the web, and these stations were kept with the latest updates, but still no luck.

However, after I upgraded to the new Edge, things seem to work better as well as problems are gone.  As they claim the new Edge is chromium base, some HTML CSS features didn't work seems to be working as well.

Aplus.net hosting with a failing grade

I've never tried paid NT/IIS hosting before.. only some free ASP hosting stuff.  This time, I had to refer a IIS/Window based hosting with MS SQL.  Yeah, I hate to refer anyone any hosting service because I do not use them, and I know no one will be 100% satisfied.  I used godaddy hosting service that comes free with a purchase of domain name and worked with yahoo hosting for my clients. (I'll mention those two later) Aplus.net was being used by one of my old customers, and I had an impression that they supplied quite good control panel, and I ended up referring this service to someone I knew.  I'll simply put my verdict. 1) control panel: B- Some features do not work properly and display errors.  I didn't bother with them because I didn't need them.  It's not easy to use, either.  I had to spend some time and wondering within their menu to enable ASP, IIS, .NET, and SQL.  My client could not do anything at all. 2) Speed : D It was so slow...

Tesla Model 3 and Model Y door light

Image
I have recently purchased a Tesla model Y, and started looking for various accessories.  One big downside of model 3 and y are the fact that they don't come with dashboard display, and I started searching for heads up displays. However, I've ended up finding bunch of other accessories.  A large sun shade for top ceiling sounds good, but I could bear it on sunny days just like at any other car.  I wanted to order perfect fit floor mats, but I can be careful and wait. One that caught my eyes was door light that beams Tesla logo to the ground.  I have tried purchasing one for my BMW X5, but failed because I don't know how they were expecting me to mount to the door.  I've tried on my 2016 X5, and my friend tried on an older 2012 X5, but it couldn't be installed in either. However, this Tesla one seemed to be fitted right at the bottom of the door by replacing an existing bulb, and the result was very satisfactory. Actually, I didn't notice the difference un...
