WordPress “Share this post” – how to get rid of it?
Most of the time I don’t want to share my posts on LinkedIn or wherever. It’s just their way of getting me to subscribe to a Jetpack premium service. I do understand, they need to make some money – for sure. But I just don’t want to get reminded I exceeded the number of free sharings per month. I rather don’t want to use the free sharings at all. Maybe somebody comes across this post and let’s me know 🙏

I started something new today: every (important) person will get its “open issues” file on my NAS
apart from the “open issues” file, I also keep a diary file for some people – apart from that they have “their entries” on my main diary (~/diary) of course.
- diskstation999:persons/person999/000README--open_issues.txt
- diskstation999:persons/person999/initials.diary
- ~/diary
yes, I am worse than Stasi in a way.
when did “this nerd” (that’s me) last mention, I now have 6 NAS-s running? 🤩😎
I know, that’s far too many – and I would quite like to give one or two away, and also to have one (at least) in a remote place, i.e. like for getting around disasters like fire or earth quake in my “home computing center”.

I am searching my friend Guylhem Aznar – I met him on the island of Martinique a couple of years ago
I have been trying to get in touch for a couple of years now. AFAIR he changed his name to Charles Devereaux for some reason, but even through that name I cannot get hold of him. LinkedIn and all that don’t help me either. Guylhem / Charles, please contact me!

Zoom (the videotelephony software) and the “weird initial display name problem”
A while ago I installed the Zoom app for macOS and since then, I always first appeared in Zoom sesssions using a name, that I intended to use in a certain community only. That irritated people quite a little. I really, really wanted to change that. I searched, and searched, and searched, but I did not find the right way for quite some time – now I found a way. My problem was created through my preferred way to start a video conference.
My preferred way (“path a”) to start any video conference:
- switch to my running Chrome window (with quite a few open tabs),
- and open a new tab,
- enter the conference link within the search field;
- when offered the option to switch to the app: go for it!
But that way there is no step, that allows me to change my initial display name.
“Path b”: If I go to the Zoom app and press “Join A Meeting“, the app forces men to enter the session password, which I don’t need to enter, if I proceed using “path a” – but this is the advantage of using “path b”: the app allows me to enter an individual display name, and even more important: the app allows me to toggle the “Remember my name for future meetings” fields.
I am so relieved now.
BTW: I am certainly not the only one in the world with the “weird initial display name problem”:
