Try pressing the back button.

Well, that's right. There is no meaningful difference in the sense that they both have to serve files from a storage backend, over a port to a frontend. I was comparing ftp folder permissions with webserver htaccess permissions. What I really ment was access control.

You asked for a scenario in which you need ftp in 2021. You handled my example by switching to another program, such as finder or explorer. That's fine. Do you agree that your user experience decreased by having to switch programs?

Well, I'm not saying running ftp to serve html is better. All I'm saying is that it can sometimes be the only supported option, or viable option. And there are major differences. Webserver access permissions vs. ftp server permissions for example?

While you are completely right in your statements, I could argue that http and ftp are a means of transport and not part of UI or UX.

Not having to run a webserver? Some resources might be located on systems which do not support or allow it.

I seem to not get the twist. What am I missing?

Okay. That would not even be possible in most of the EU. That's why I wondered. Some EU countries have limits on the maximum amount of cash transactions that can happen legally. Mostly between 3000-10000 euros allowed, depending on the country.

I'm just wondering, what would you prefer to be the method? Isn't providing banking info the least they need? To send the money?

It can be a quite complex process. It also tends to break easily if not done right. Most organizations that deploy large amounts of systems will create Windows images with tools like Microsoft SCCM for example. This also works: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/96683-create-media-autom...

Felt like I was reading a description of what I feel. Kind of punched me in the face when I read at the end that he's 70...I've been in my animal for 35 years...perhaps it's time to reconsider my life. The problem is, I will probably never do until another major crash happens...I assume this is a problem many of us have.

Using keepass would decouple password management from your browser. Bitwarden, for example, usually runs as a browser addon.

Have you tried something like ShadowFox? https://overdodactyl.github.io/ShadowFox/

Exactly. Its like they're saying: We don't have what you want, but here's something that's close enough. Be happy.

To be clear: thats the stuff that puts you off with UWP, not Rufus, right?

I have openhab in place for issues like this. Enjoy the smart home with a local connect-to-everything controller/bridge. Runs on a Pi, as a VM, ... Works great!

Pretty much makes it even worse.

I have an android phone without google play enabled or installed. Not even a replacement framework such as MicroG or whatever. Works fine. Check how f-doid apps are running, or what it requires. No google license, api, nothing.
