I'm in the process of commissioning a new VPS server which will host mainly html/CSS sites (and one simple WP site). The server will be running Plesk 18.0.

Could I ask for recommendations for add-ons I should consider or would benefit from? Let's Encrypt is already on my list, but it's been a while since I've done this and I'm very out of date.

Also, are there any server-wide settings I should apply from the outset?

Thanks

This is a 2nd hand phone which I bought for my mother from CEX here in the UK. It got a little flaky and wouldn't let me into settings, so I replaced it a few weeks ago and did a factory reset.

My mother's had problems with the new phone (she has dementia) so I thought I'd set up the old phone again. Ran through setup, transferred minimal data from phone #2, no apps, then rebooted to be greeted by this screen.

"All binaries are not allowed to be flagged due to KG locked : vb meta"

"This phone has been flashed with unauthorised software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support"

I can't turn the phone off or do anything. It was working mostly fine until this morning.

Any ideas?

My elderly disabled mother is flying in tomorrow and I'm driving down to collect her. She is an assisted passenger and I'm wondering where I should go to collect her?

I've just called the airport's main number and they're now closed.

Anyone know or could advise?

Let's say the population of the UK suddenly moved elsewhere en masse. Which plants/shrubs would take over and eventually "win"? Brambles? Hogweed?

A colleague has a decent WiFi connection on his mobile but a desperately crap signal on his desktop. Can anyone recommend a not-horribly-expensive WiFi dongle that he can use which will be relatively friendly with this BT router?

TIA

My mother tends to get through phones fairly regularly, and this one has lasted about 6 months before it's run into problems.

The screen has a green hue and has about 8 horizontal lines across it, and I can't get into any of the settings at all: when I try I get a message that the app has stopped. So I can't wipe the phone or restore it to factory settings, and I can't give any AV apps the permissions they need to run.

Right now it works, makes/receives calls, runs WhatsApp and SMS.

Any suggestions on what options I might have, or should I just bin it and start over?
