Let me give you another tip, which might actually teach you how to fish.

If you see something in a post and want to figure out how it was done, sometimes quoting that post will actually reveal to you what was done.
For example try quoting this post and see if you notice anything different.



Not bad for $9!

Why is DDF loading (at times) as http and not https?

And this is the first time I've opened that thread #clickbait
No worries, closed it right away :D
I'm glad you closed it before discovering all the point selling and other illicit activity.

A much more widely available sefer is the חומש שי למורא which has a letter from the Rebbe printed there. It is not a haskama. It is a letter of guidance and suggestions, along with brochos.
while on topic he cut out the part of the letter he did not listen too

Around which year/decade did ATM's/debit cards start being a common thing (asking about the Brooklyn NY area but can be anywhere)?

In the 70s.

My father used to tell me that when was was in college (late 70's) at Penn that they gave away Phillies tickets for each ATM transaction when they were trying to promote its usage.
He did quite well off of that promo :)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Partial ניקוד?

BTW. I think graphically that chumash is excellent. As far as the טייטש on Rashi, while I think he does a very good job, I think אשל אברהם is a lot more comprehensive (but was a flop commercially).

Here's what keeps me up at night.

Why is it that when you post a tweet, it goes in the interesting/funny/random tweet thread, but if you take a screenshot of the same tweet, it goes in the interesting/funny/random picture thread.
