It could be that the announcement on the envelopes had some "off-line" instructions; this (online) announcement has none.

Also not in the FAQ: "I'm 90 years old and I don't know what 'download an app' or 'fill the form online' even mean. Provided you don't swap stamps at the post office, what you suggest me to do?"

That just happens to work at a depth of 80 meters.

In theory, yes. In practice, the wind and the currents make it extremely hard to put the load in a vicinity of the pipe at 80 m depth.

Wait till you see the one belonging to Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor. Or the one of George Nugent-Temple-Grenville, 1st Marquess of Buckingham, if you really want to look at bizarres.

But if the Russians were screaming bloody murder, this would no doubt be used to accuse them. So: Russians screaming bloody murder => see? Russians are the ones who did it. Russians aren't screaming bloody murder => see? Russia

I'm one training short of hypoxic trimix (after a regular trimix course). I think you seriously over-estimate the complexity: open-water course is 3 days, advanced open-water is 2 days, nitrox is ... half a day?, basic tech diving (adv

Am I correct to assume that if I forget that in Makefile, the compilation would still work fine? Also, do I need to include all of <a.h>'s includes, and of these includes' includes?

by maratc 4y ago
How would that work in the C/C++ world? For example, a.cpp #include's <a.h>; a.h doesn't produce any compilation artifacts. We change a.h but not a.cpp; since a .cpp is unchanged, there's nothing to do in the build

This seems like trying to find a problem for the email solution. The mail system as it is is working. It has been for many years. It costs a non-significant amount of money to send mail, so this takes care of the spam problem: spam exists b

I don’t think their phone is going to get a lot of traction either, considering that the competitors phones all have about a week of battery life. My Nokia 5110 actually lasts about ten days without charging.

I have a Suunto Spyder which I bought around 2003. It was the first dive computer that was small enough to be worn as a daily driver. The thing about Spyder is that I need to replace its battery every two-three years, but otherwise it still

If your question is about the decompression algorithm, then air is a minimum requirement, although I'd imagine it having Nitrox mixes too (these are just different inputs to the same algorithm). If it's about reading the tank pres

Can't speak for Australia, but Israel in 1970's considered colour television as "a luxury that would increase social gaps"[0], and a similar colour burst erasing happened. This has lead to a rise of anti-erasing devices

I second this motion. "The Complete Dictionary of Hebrew Language" has about 35,000 words in total. I bet that over a half of that aren't used, and would sound completely new to anyone except Hebrew linguists. Hebrew is a &qu

I've been looking a lot at keyboards but have spent $0 on keyboards so far. This is the first keyboard I may actually consider buying. For a change, it looks like it has been designed by a person who actually digs typing. I don't

Just checked — they indeed still have one model (not counting special editions in pink) after a hiatus of four years. Without an SD card, sideloading is an issue though.

You have a point. OTOH, my three Sony readers and my Nook supported ePub without any servers, but all are dead now. And again, without that server it's just back to Calibre.

There's no magic ASIC on the Kobo that transfers the stream of bytes into the stream of pixels; ePub support is in the Kobo software. Amazon now has this support in their software. The fact that the conversion software runs on Kindle s

I had three readers from Sony (until they exited the business) and one from B&N (until they exited the business), because I didn't want to deal with conversion. Of these still in the business, Amazon looks the least-like to exit so
