OK found that option and disabled it.
Granted then 99.9% would never know the option was there, but the idea of changing a pre existing option that's been around for well over a decade is frustrating.
Lot of options being changed/turned on like that. Really tiresome...

Too many accounts as it is, not going to bother with an Avatar
You realize the purpose of Gravatar is to consolidate accounts specifically? That's why I love it as an end user. Set it once and it takes care of nearly every site I am on.

Yeah it's not worth it. Enough stuff tracks us online as it is. Why give it over unless we want to?

Oh for the love of...another system wide default changed?
ARGH this is horrible.
I use notifications currently and I now get so many it's driving me mad. 5 new ones in 2 minutes.
Posted a reply to a thread, I now get a notification to every reply that thread has, can't see in settings how to turn it off, this did not happen before today.
Why did this get enabled without asking..too much email spam as it is.

Welp too rich for my blood.

If you can't find a distributor.... I got $50
You paying for UK shipping as well? 
Trying to figure out what to do, whether a distributor would buy them...
Palo Alto Networks PA-5060With SSDs, brand new, never used. 5 of them.
What would you do with them?
Is there a prize if someone does nail it?
Open a support ticket. It sounds like a backend problem now.
As the software and video game industries have learned, you cannot copy protect your software, ever. It's a never ending game of whack-a-mole.
Apparently, this is all he had to do. Little bit of PHP.
<?php
$contents = file_get_contents("7daycapturePPP2.iokit");
$newlines = 0;
for($i = 0; $i < strlen($contents); $i++)
{
if( ord($contents[$i]) == 10) {
$newlines++;
if($newlines == 2) {
$original_header = substr($contents, 0, $i + 1);
$contents = substr_replace($contents, "", 0, $i + 1);
break;
}
}
}
echo $original_header;
echo zlib_decode($contents);
?>

Interesting.. I wonder if the solution is for sale or going to be publicly posted?
Pretty sure Dell's T&Cs prohibit selling the solution and their lawyers will come after anyone who tries it.
Now, if the soloution just ended up being distributed outside the control of anyone one individual, they would have a hard time. DPACK is a major tool in their sales arsenal for products. Maybe the engineering guys will re-write DPACK to counter it.

Nope, it's provided by Dell (and prehaps other vendors)
Dell internal app. Only Dell can provide it and only Dell can decrypt the output.
Seems some people have cracked it.
