I had a few spots show up on my scalp and beard. I was told by a dermatologist to put cortisone cream and the bald patches have stayed away.

I agree with the sibling advice to see a doctor. Please don’t take what I’ve written as medical advice.

It seems like the OP doesn't want to run the display in a scaled mode because of the quality drop but it's nearly indiscernible to my eyes.

I enjoy running my Macbook Pro Retina at 2880 x 1800) for the screen real-estate and it seems less taxing on the GPU.

Also, in the licensing section of his website

Your requests are not async and so the item will always be `undefined`. You should add a callback to your functions.

    hn.item(8863, function(err, item){
        console.log(item);
    });
Edit: Actually, there is a lot that isn't correct about this library.. you should add a disclaimer that this is a WIP and is not in a usable state.

One of the strengths of BS is mobile-first responsive design. You can chain classes like this: class-name="col-xs-6 col-md-3"

If you try this with the method outlined by the OP, you'll end up with a giant css file.

Comcast charged me a "wireless setup fee"[1] when the technician came over to setup my new connection. The problem is: he didn't touch my personal wireless router nor was there any mention of the wifi fee on the receipt when he left.

After some time on the phone, I was able to get my monthly cable modem fee removed (seemly forever) but they tried to sneak it back into my bill recently.

I wish we had more options for ISPs in america.

[1] Not sure of the exact name or cost but it was around $75-$90.

In the OP situation this could play out like this:

1. Have a broken laptop (item #1)

2. Buy a new laptop (item #2)

3. Return item #1 with item #2's receipt

4. Have a working computer.

note: I'm not condoning this and it's unlikely to working in the OP's case because stores are usually smart enough to check serials on bigger ticket items.

From Apple's site [1]:

Touch ID does not store any images of your fingerprint. It stores only a mathematical representation of your fingerprint.

The Secure Enclave is walled off from the rest of A7 and as well as the rest of iOS. Therefore, your fingerprint data is never accessed by iOS or other apps, never stored on Apple servers, and never backed up to iCloud or anywhere else. Only Touch ID uses it and it can't be used to match against other fingerprint databases.

If it is indeed true that credit card numbers were compromised, it would behove Linode to tell their customers quickly so they can take the proper action.

With this lack of transparency, I feel like I had no choice but to block my card.
