That's weird. My SVGs do not get rasterized when resizing. I just tried (Powerpoint 2019) and I can resize, move, turn, mirror, cut etc. and they stay in vector form.

That would free su.se for SUSE Linux, perfect.

Uhm, I can import vector SVGs into Powerpoint (2019 or Office 365) just fine.

What you describe more or less exists here in Spain. The (mandatory) national ID is a NFC smart card with a PKI key [1]. With that (among a lot of other things) I can login into my regional government website [2] and look at my (single-paye

I got a Nexus 4 and it only updated from Android 4 to Android 5. Has the "three years guarantee" been extended?

That's too bad, thanks for the heads up. I use symlinks for the figures of my LaTeX papers, the actual figure resides with the scripts and data that generate the figure (many GBs usually) and in Dropbox I only have very lightweight tex

Exactly my case! So I have a cronjob that compares the current IP with the previous one and, if different, sends an API request to update the DNS record.

You forgot the API! I have my own dynamic DNS with a raspberry and the cloudflare API for instance, it's very useful.

Based on your certificate, are you using Cloudflare? If so, this shows how to handle these redirects: https://www.bybe.net/cloudflare-enforce-ssl-redirect-http-ht... I use Github pages+Cloudflare to host my page and that&#x

Don't worry, the AD (airworthiness directive) specifically calls for complete, ground power cycles. These cannot be done in flight. https://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/EASA_AD_2017_0129_R1.pdf/AD_2...

I guess that at some point Ford though they could have an IP for each car? Out of curiosity I looked at the headers of an email I got from them and sure enough it came from an IP in their allocation! However, the same was not true for email
