Small victories (as some have already said). Look for the "easy wins" or the "low hanging fruit". Chalk up a couple wins and it will get your head back in the game...

Yes, I understand the benefits of PNG/RAW & JPG (and when to use them) - thanks for the simple examples too. Hopefully your answer brings some additional insight to someone reading this thread. My little laugh was just that OP is looking for a JPG, and even the JPEG group prefers PNG in this case - simple as that. But I guess it's hard to convey the intent of a light chuckle on the interwebs. Sorry about that. Best regards!

LOL! Even the "Joint Photographic Experts Group" page uses PNG! JPEG site[^]

This. This is why all manner of security gets broken. Security is hard work. Security must be maintained, no matter if it's passwords or door locks. If Seddon were alive today, he would certainly reuse passwords.

I've got: - A basic CyberPower CP425SLG 425VA just for bench duty (brownout are common where I live) - The same CyberPower CP1000AVRLCD 1000VA you're looking at for the wife's desktop. (PC and 2 monitors on battery, speakers surge only). - A CyberPower PR1500SWRM2U 1500VA with 2 critical load (CL) outlets and 4 non-critical load (NCL) for everything else. Outlet spacing matters. Take a look at Power Splitters/Spiders to get those power "wall warts" away from the back and allow more plugged in. That "everything else" list grows when you get a UPS. My list: - (CL) Server for Plex, Minecraft, etc. - (CL) My desktop development rig - Power spider with speakers, monitor, & USB hub. - Power spider with 2 Gigabit switches, Vera Edge, HD dock, and phone base station - Power spider with cable modem, router, & Vonage adapter - Power spider with 2 WD EX4100 NAS boxes I'm sure some would call this overloaded, but I figure the wall warts for most stuff I have plugged in don't draw too much and I tried spreading the load across all the outlets. With the above setup, I just got 46 minutes run time in a test last week on 8 month old batteries. You do need to change batteries every couple years or so. Be sure to use the monitoring software that comes with the unit you get. And don't plug in a laser printer to a UPS. Not sure where I heard that advice from years ago, but I stick with it...

Yay! The first time I can share something! For the wired side, routers have a WAN-to-LAN throughput rating that I ran across years ago using the old WRT54G routers. Some of the earlier ones had terrible throughput, but later revisions were the way to go. Back then, I found SmallNetBuilder had a nice chart of their test results. I looked for my example WRT54Gs and I didn't see any. I also didn't see anything about your 3Com. If you do end up shopping for a new router, check out your prospective replacement on that chart.
