I was in the area last year. You can take a taxi from the Greek side and they will give you a tour of the new city and an archaeological site. The driver was originally from a village not far from there and knew the parts. I doubt you can g

In Germany there are a lot of price comparison sites, geizhals and idealo being just two examples. If I am looking for electronics the filtering capabilities of geizhals are way better than Amazon and it is often the case that I can get a b

The number of beds per capita is one thing, how many are free or can be freed in the next few days/weeks is another. At least in Germany it was reported that a lot of them were in use and less than half were available for coronavirus p

How does that work if you want a table or a figure or an equation? Is it still markdown and still as easy to read and edit by everyone if there are LaTeX blocks sprinkled throughout the document?

I know how to work with org-mode and I’ve also tried the paper notebook. Both seem like they should be working fine, my problem is that I never remember to work on my notes or todos. The last entries are likely at least a few months old. Ty

I am Greek and we don't use that many commas. Definitely not in this way. I think the Greek language is also not as flexible with comma placement as perhaps English is. What I've noticed is that some people never learned how to us

I didn't mean to imply that they have to defer to Amazon. On the other hand, countries have in the past done things that were within their rights and were still sued for large sums. I was thinking of cases like Occidental v. Ecuador.

They still don't need exclusive rights to the TLD. I doubt Brazil or one of the other eight countries was planning to create such domains.

Most would expect that to be the Amazon store in Brazil, similar to amazon.de or amazon.fr. It would be funny, if not poetic justice, if Brazil decided to do just that following this decision. Likely Amazon would sue them and an arbitration

I have been trying mx linux the last two weeks or so. It is similar to Xubuntu, based on Debian Stable (which was a plus for me) with a polished XFCE desktop. So far I like it, especially some of the tools they have developed on top of Debi

Well you can try the same with konsole. On my XFCE system it wants to install 71 packages, including stuff that a terminal emulator probably doesn't need like phonon. To be fair, this could also be due to Debian's packaging and it

From what I've gathered, all MAX planes (including the ones that crashed) have two AoA sensors, but MCAS just uses one. As far as I know there was never an option to have a redundant configuration. The premium add-on was the indication

If you still check the quarantine folder once a week, do you even need the challenge email? At most it will take a few days longer to reply to a valid email and then you can whitelist the sender.

Exactly what I thought. The website needs to know whether the battery is low or not, not even how much time it still has. Let the API return a true/false to that question and, if necessary for some usecases, hide the rest behind a defa
