Great set of steps from ABN AMRO to get into the old on-line banking environment that usually works if the new one fails downloading PDF reports:

[WayBack] RawGit: RawGit served raw files directly from GitHub with proper Content-Type headers.
This means you have to redirect your existing RawGit links before October 2019, and you cannot add new links on RawGit.
You might want to try alternatives, for instance this one I mentioned in 2017: raw.githack.com – like rawgit.com but supports bitbucket as well and runs on plain nginx.
raw.githack.com serves raw files directly from GitHub, Bitbucket or GitLab with proper Content-Type headers.
There are some other options that RawGit itself mentions:
What you should use instead
The following free services offer fantastic alternatives to some or all of RawGit’s functionality. You may like them even more than RawGit.
RawGit source is still at [WayBack] GitHub – rgrove/rawgit: Served files from raw.githubusercontent.com, but with the correct content types., so if you want to host your own alternative you can.
It means I need to change these pages:

Reminder to self: Local Guides Nederland moved their [WayBack] G+ community over to [WayBack] Local Guides Connect – Help Desk – Local Guides Connect which is part of [WayBack] Local Guides Connect and powered by [WayBack] Powered by Lithium | Lithium.
Since that is not part of any other social media platform I subscribe to, I will likely only see new stuff when I actively go to that place: hopefully that is more than once a year.

For my memory:
What’s new in this update:
It’s time for the first update of the year! We appreciate all your comments sent to us through the App Store, in-app feedback and email; and continue focusing on making this app better with each release.
In this version we addressed the following issues:
- Added support for the AVC (420 and 444) codec, available when connecting to current versions of Windows 10.
- In “fit to window mode”, a window refresh now occurs immediately after a resize to ensure that content is rendered at the correct interpolation level.
- Fixed a layout bug that caused feed headers to overlap for some users.
- Cleaned up the Application Preferences UI.
- Polished the Add/Edit Desktop UI.
- Made lots of fit and finish adjustments to the Connection Center tile and list views for desktops and feeds.
Please continue to send us feedback. We read it all and factor it into our planning. If you encounter any errors, you can always contact us via Help > Report an Issue.
NOTE: There is a bug in macOS 10.14.0 and 10.14.1 that can cause the “.com.microsoft.rdc.application-data_SUPPORT/_EXTERNAL_DATA” folder (nested deep inside the ~/Library folder) to consume a large amount of disk space. To resolve this issue, delete the folder contents and upgrade to macOS 10.14.2. Note that a side-effect of deleting the folder contents is that snapshot images assigned to bookmarks will be deleted. These images will be regenerated when reconnecting to the remote PC.
