Thank you. I order to contact support, I had to log in, so I had to use a different account just you be able to ask the question. We'll see what they reply. If this fails, I'll go the GDPR route.

After reading the discussion here I decided to delete my paypal account. So I attempted to log in, and it required me to provide a 2FA authentication using SMS. Problem is that I don't have access to the registered number anymore. So n

I don't disagree with you. I just don't think a programmer should be confused about the statement "item 0 is the 1'st item".

The index is the distance away from the first element. So index 0 is the first element. Index 3 is 3 away from the first element, so the fourth element. It's the difference between ordinal and cardinal numbers. In other words, counting

I'm from Sweden, and I certainly would say 00:15 (as zero fifteen). Although the time at exactly 00:00 would be called midnight.

That's confusing ordinal and cardinal numbers. The element with index 0 is the first number. The element with index 1 is the second number, and so on. Using the term "zeroth" is basically some form of showing off (even though

This is undefined behaviour, as a pointer is only allowed to point to valid addresses (as well as the index of the last element + 1, but it can't be dereferenced).

I was in Sweden a couple of months ago and rented an EV. In my case the reasons were simple. The main reason is that EV's are just nicer to drive. The second reason is to save money since petrol is much more expensive than charging an

There are two different exchange rates: The official rate and the black market rate. The latter is the actual value of the money. No one can actually get at their money using the official rate. That's why banks have two different types

Lebanon has practically two different currencies. If you put money into a bank account now, you can access it. It's the old bank accounts that are locked unless you're willing to take a 90% loss. What has happened in practice is t

This is precisely the realisation that is the basis of Qubes OS. The entire system is basically an admission that you cannot hope to preserve security on a system where you have users running stuff. Just allow them to do anything, but isola

On the desktop perhaps, but I tried for the longest time to connect using a mobile browser and it just wouldn't let me. I ended up having to go to a computer to connect with using a browser.

Quite honestly I would be love to hear an argument as to why anyone would use zoom over jitsi. I'm not trying to be controversial, and I readily admits I've only used zoom maybe twice, but I saw nothing that was better than jitsi.

Most people's morals can be bought, it's just a matter of cost. Increasing salaries for government employees increases the barrier to entry for corruption. Whether or not a typical state can actually afford it is a completely diff

I'm in Singapore and when I read this I realised that it's been a long time since I received an SMS spam message. It must be at least 2 years. And even then they were quite rare (one ever few months maybe?). I wonder what differen

This is a fair concern. The particular extension is developed by Aarhus University, which is a major university in Denmark. Not a guarantee it won't do anything bad, but it should give you more comfort than any random extension develop

If the use is required for the site to function, the data may be shared. The only ones you can reject are the ones that are not necessary, which usually involves ad trackers and similar things. It should also be noted that these popups are

In one sense you're right. There is a historical relation. However, I'd argue that that relation is so obscure these days that no native speaker would even think about it, unless it's pointed out of course. But yes, the origi

You're correct about Swedish. The extra letters come at the end, in the order å, ä, ö. Interestingly enough this order is different to how Norwegian and Danish orders them. Also, as opposed to German, they are not referred to as umlaut

I think Dyalog was at least created that way. I don't know if they are an actual cooperative though. The company itself was created by their customers to ensure support and development of the product that they used.

There is also a very nice link to CS since the first computer program was by Ada Lovelace and was written to compute Bernoulli numbers.

I did notice that about half of the connections on a regular bittorrent session seems to be IPv6, so I'd expect it to work fine, although perhaps a bit slower since there are less hosts you can connect to.
