dodgy site, or not?
by Phil Thane 12 Sep '21

Hi, Not strictly a Linux question, but I'm having a problem signing up to a video stream. Here's a link to a legit Youtube page for a band I follow: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz-l3vco5OX-s6flw3qFEz12QdasXdy9S They played a gig at the O2 10 days ago and there's a link to a recording of the live stream, then it gets weird. The link goes to 'Eventlist' but the sign-up redirects to one of many sign-up pages with funny spelling all ending in 'Z' eg Bookphaz, Shapezonez and others I've forgotten. They seem genuine (I've searched for comments and not found bad ones) but I get a message ' Your card has been decline' (note lack of 'd' on declined). There are UK phone numbers for support but they redirect to someone far away with no clue. Tried last week and again this evening. The advice is try again later. Tried both FF and Chromium (on Mint) with same results. Has anyone come across this or similar? (BTW my card has about £4k credit on it and I've used it recently with no problem.) -- Phil Thane www.pthane.co.uk Tweet @pthane 01767 449759 07582 750607

Skype error messages

If I try to refresh the Update manager, I get an error message for Skype. See post image link.(I should've c+p'd this from Terminal, so sorry about that.) I've tried one solution suggested online to delete the signature key but it didn't work. https://i.postimg.cc/Qx3yrdbH/skype-puzzle1.png Ideas? Bev. (Cinnamon 19.1.)
