I have a few Anker PowerCore+ 26,800 USB power banks of which one would not show the charger lights any more. This is how to reset these power banks (should also work with other Anker power banks).
Below is how to reset it; after that the charging indicator started functioning again:
Try another outlet. If that doesn’t work, plug it into itself.Take a USB cable and plug that into the output and plug the output into the input. This will reset the battery.

For my link archive, as apparently the history recording for the Windows (not just server) Task Scheduler is disabled [Wayback How can I enable the Windows Server Task Scheduler History recording? – Stack Overflow
- Open an elevated Task Scheduler (ie. right-click on the Task Scheduler icon and choose Run as administrator)
- In the Actions pane (right pane, not the actions tab), click Enable All Tasks History
That’s it. Not sure why this isn’t on by default, but it isn’t.
At the time of writing, I did not have energy to figure out which steps on the console to take to enable this history.

[Wayback/Archive] Accessibility Myths has great debunks.
Quite a few of them are phrased with a web perspective in mind. That’s just because of prevalence. These myths are there on native platforms (mobile, Windows, MacOS and Linux) as well and can be debunked in the same way.
Similar myths are even there for real life: accessibility of buildings, signage, streets, you name it are just that and can be debunked with common sense.
An inclusive society actually is cheaper than a exclusive one, as it benefits everyone. The same holds for your software.

A long time ago I wrote about How To Fix Missing Hibernation Option On Windows 10.
Back then I needed to enable it (using powercfg.exe /hibernate on or disable using powercfg.exe /hibernate off), but I forgot about how to query this setting.
[Wayback/Archive] windows check if hibernation is enabled – Google Search gives me a result which is somewhat workable, but hopefully some day I find a better solution than in [Wayback/Archive] How to see from commandline (!!!) if hibernation is on or off? – Windows 10 Forums:
