I requested GDPR exports for my accounts 8 days ago, nothing turned up yet. I have shreddit lined up to run as soon as I get my zips.

On a similar vein, I just installed Windows 2000 + all updates on my Thinkpad T42 with an Intel M 1.8GHz single core, 1GB of ram and 160GB of spinning rust. The ultimate goal was to set up an Embedded Visual C++ 3.0 development environment

The wire from the basement was for an earth ground, he probably had another antenna wire either in the attic or going outside. Check out Galena detector radios.

You might want to give the Amazfit Bip a go, it's as barebones as it gets. The only gripes I have with it is the craptastic app and the lack of vibration, it only has a beeper.

I'd say no to that, aside from the reliability and KISS aspects of this, there is one thing cameras won't be able to do properly: parallax. In tight parking spaces or near curbs I will often move around in the car so that I can se

It was the same for Romania but that is about to change because of a kidnapping/murder case and a media shitstorm regarding fake emergency number calls and geotracking of callers.

It doesn't seem to work with PuTTY, maybe its telnet defaults aren't what the code expects.

I love opus just as much as I loved musepack and vorbis, the one thing all of them lack to one degree or another is support and hardware acceleration. If I throw an opus file on my Android 8.1 phone, it has no idea what to do with it unless

This reminds me of Monty's A Digital Media Primer for Geeks[0] and Digital Show & Tell[1] - the delivery, the explanations and the way the experiments are set up is superb. [0] https://xiph.org/video/vid1.shtml

I merely pointed out that they are volunteers in order to underline that there is no connection between the state educational system and the private team of volunteers which provide the dictionary service.

I don't think they wanted to "catch" the cheaters. This was not a real examination to begin with, it was just a simulation in order for the pupils to get a feel for how things will happen. The real testing will happen on the

Just to clear some points: there is no administrative connection between the volunteers which provide the dictionary service and the testing. For this kind of national test you are not supposed to be able to bring in dictionaries, communica

Actually, the test is administered by the public education system and the dictionary is a volunteer job. I see no ethical issues with what they did, the ethics issues lie with the ones that tried to cheat.

It has more in common with Nokia 6300 than with the 3310, IMO. As zbuf said, I was also hoping for a 3G or newer modem, 2G networks are being shut down in many parts of the world and will continue to go down in the next couple of years.

This is also killing me, I've switched to DVORAK a few months ago and I'm up to speed, but missing these shortcuts can be pretty painful at times, especially with cut, copy and paste. I have adjusted to doing Ctrl-Insert, Shift-In

I seldom used it a long time ago, before learning the basics of vi(m). It's great when you need to change some random config and you need a commandline editor that has the basic commands listed in plain sight all the time.

Looks like the devels weren't all that happy about assigning the copyright of their code to the FSF. Part of the e-mail thread discussing the move is here https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/nano-devel/201

You might want to file a bug report, if there isn't one already. I have filed bug reports for Opera and Vivaldi.

%30 encodes for 0, so %%30%30 should decode to %00, which is the urlencoding for a null char. My guess is that this either crashes the engine as it tries to open the URL with a null byte in it, or the GUI as it tries to display the tooltip.

Yep, Firefox works fine. Vivaldi 1.0.219.50 also crashes the tab on hover.

Interestingly enough, trying to open this link from Thunderbird 38.2.0's feed reader does nothing and opening it in Opera 32.0.1948.25 crashes the browser. Hovering over the link in Opera crashes the tab, probably due to some prefetchi

Did they know how to write a good manual back then. You've got your soldering primer, guides on how to use test equipment... heck, you can probably apply some of the mechanical knowledge to fix your kitchen sink.

To get a better understanding on how this all works I recommend reading the code. Yep, detected alright.
