I'm proud to say that I have worked for Ecosia, though ages ago. Christian, the CEO, is really one of the kindest and most honest people I have worked with. Also 100% committed to the cause, he walks the walk. Yes I'm just some ra

This worked indeed. Although I had to cut my document into smaller chunks. 900 pages at once ended with a timeout.

May I ask as a layperson, how would you about using this to OCR multiple hundreds of pages? I tried the chat but it pretty much stops after the 2nd page.

Why Apple? Oracle would probably fit better with others. Or even IBM.

On the other hand, many of us in Europe still have the memories (or our parents tales) of our governments spying on everything we say and do. With all the chilling consequences. Half a century of communist rule showed us not to trust our go

> They did that in the 1970s with Cambodia. You mean the Third Indochina War? It wasn't really about Cambodia being a failed state but a far consequence of a Sino-Soviet split.

This is all rather easy on Android. You can have multiple Google (Play) accounts set to different countries. But most app developers don't even enforce it. I had UK bank apps installed through my "German" Google account.

In Asia use Grab instead. Uber either won't work or will just be less popular.

Sorry, not going to stop calling myself that. I have a diploma to prove it. It is in no way worse (or better) than any other diploma issued by my university.

Or way older and much more eloquent (albeit less digestible) "Amusing Ourselves to Death" by Neil Postman. Or even older "The Medium Is the Massage" by Marshall McLuhan.

SysEx is awesome. I'm quite sad modern synths seem to use it less and less (Roland!!!). Though Behringer is still quite good with it. E.g. their Deepmind can be pretty much 100% programmed with it, on top of already good MIDI CC scope.

Yes they don't make them like that anymore. Most synthesisers nowadays have much better user interface.

The situation you describe in the first paragraph applies to pretty much most of EU. At least the western states. The powers that be decided, the ambitious middle class has to foot the bill for everything.

CH4 vs NH4NO3, where does the carbon go? Don't you need the carbon to recover the energy?
