To fellow creators: recently, I got a strange message in my inbox. It was a request for dividers with no please, no thanks, just a Pinterest link tossed in at the end. The message read:
In spaces like this, a link isn't always just a link. Sometimes, what looks like an ordinary URL can actually be something called a Canary Token or an IP logger. These tools are hidden inside regular links, and when you click one, they collect information like your IP address and device details. That means the person who sent it knows you interacted with their link, even if everything else seems normal.
If someone ignores your rules and boundaries, chances are it isn't a genuine request. Most of the time, it's just someone testing your reactions or trying to get a response. Over time, you'll start to notice the patterns. When something feels off, trust that feeling. Your instincts are usually right, even before you can explain why.
🌧 Here are a few ways to keep your blog safe:
✑ Be careful with links and look at who is sending them. Respectful followers usually describe what they want or submit an image directly. If you get a vague request that is just a link from someone you don't know, treat it as a security risk.
✑ If you think you might have clicked a tracking link or a Canary Token, reset your router to change your IP address. This helps protect your privacy.
✑ It's also a good idea to write down what happened, just in case. I keep a simple log myself, not because these are a huge threat, but because having the details can help if anything comes up later.
I'm sharing this so other creators, especially if you're new to the resource community, can spot these tactics for what they are. Trust your gut, stick to your boundaries, and remember you never have to reply to anything that feels off.
I'm avoiding re-installing this shit again, so in the meantime I'm sorting some stuff into lists. For Linux research purposes.
Edit: Standby Memory Allocation on Windows 10: New info coming in: That's not the issue. However, what i wrote below about TM is my own experience and has worked for me (without doing what Jessa was saying in the SB memory part, I remembered, hope I didn't waste anybody's time). Does it make sense? idk, but it's harmless, and if it's actually a thing and not just a freak coincidence, and can help anybody else then why not. I do remember trying it with and without cleaning cache :/ [for fuck sake the nerve on EA to put out for sale a new edition without improving it to 64bit].
As discussed by Jessa below, it's an OS problem. What worked for me, for some bizarre reason was to keep Task Manager on before and while playing the game. without it my game was crashing often, on my main non gaming computer. What solved it was fixing windows... for anyone's interested, the gory details are at the bottom of the post under the cut.
+ That combined with clearing cache often.
Jessa's video (Memory Allocation and 4GB Patch Repair).
Edit: Turns out this video was pulled back, so basically just make sure the patch is applied?

That's it for now. Any more information or good links will be welcome.
Task Manager thing briefly, for the curious (as if it interests anyone else but me, but in the interest of keeping track).
So the game was crashing often. That thing was easy to spot because the laptop would make loud airplane noises when I'd load the game. It got stuck or something, so I went to end it by force with task manager and noticed that all the resources where used to the max - right up until I'd open TM, and then everything would cool down. Like it was playing hide and seek with me. So I figured I'd get smart with it right back, and just leave TM open the whole time. Low and behold, the game stopped crashing. That combined with clearing cache often. Does it make sense? idk, but the computer works in mysterious ways.
