Will you still be able to use Calibre to copy your books from your Kindle to Calibre via USB? I like to backup.

And the blog's logo has 4 letters n 4 mario colors. They aren't a sequence (YGVR) that is found in any title for the first 4 letters. For the last 4 letters either, but Maro Party 7 is a close match with: YGVO.

Thanks for your recommendation! With Sonophone, my group of one Sonos Outside + 2 old Play:3 speakers now reacts almost instantly instead of waiting minutes for that group to be ready to be controlled. Awesome.

One use-case I always try is to have an AI try to read a school calendar image where days off are or days of interest are highlighted using a legend. i.e.: days with a square, circle or triangle or different color, etc.

When asking days for specific days of interest for the school year, AIs always struggle. They get some days right but forget some or fabulate new days. They fare a bit better if you remove some of the noise and give them only a picture of a month but even then, it's unreliable.

The comparison isn't exactly fair. I love my Tesla and won't go back but if I'm not mistaken when leasing other brands you can buyback the car at the end of the term which isn't the case when leasing a Tesla.

As a developer/CTO who's use-case when travelling is just being able to take care of emergencies if something present itself I wanted to do away from bringing a laptop in vacation. Since I develop using Docker, my solution is basically an EC2 machine I can fire if needed that has VSCode installed as a server running in a browser with Docker installed in the same machine. Basically a cloud dev environment available in the browser.

It's amazing how it all works well, even the Docker integration inside VSCode. The main thing that doesn't work as well as locally is searching the source code which is very slow. A work-around would be to search your code separately in Github or whatever service you use.

Anyway, with this setup, I can go away with a clear mind that I have a dev machine available even if I only bring my iPad (with keyboard cover).

Not sure about MFA with a USB key but for the sake of the argument, if they are using App-based MFA as their own Authy, I would think a headless browser in the backend of the fake site accessing the proper site on behalf of the real user would do the trick. It asks the code for the user on the real site and the user replies on the fake site and the fake site supplied the real code to the real site. The only thing needed is that the user gets and supply the code that was asked on their behalf to the fake site.

Who says an attacker auth Web site cannot ask for the MFA code behind the scenes and supply it? Problem is no one, especially Twilio employees shouldn't never click and never trust any link they receive from trusted or untrusted source. They should use the links they already have bookmarked.

Congratulations! Your story is very inspiring.

There's a reason why I don't install any extension except a password manager.

That's why I don't give my mobile number to any mobile service. Heck, I don't even give it to my service providers. I use Twilio phone numbers as a filter to transfer voice or texts without using my real number.

Wow. Never realized that. I remember reading about this on the official site and there was actually a tree with a memorial in the game.

But perhaps it was unrelated.

:-(

Very touching story.

I'm remembering one of the first touching stories of an influential MMORPG gamer disappearing because of her dead: A story known as "A Story About a Tree":

At least in Quebec and I know in other provinces, you have private medical clinics for medical consultations.

When it comes to surgeries, then they refer you to the public services.

...rather they fear that it will result in them receiving worse care.

In Canada, we have free healthcare. If you have the money you still can go private if you think you'll get a better care.

But I guarantee you won't go private for hearth surgery. There's not market for it because the care you get is already the best in the public sector.

To hell with profitability. I'm infinitely glad my son's right to live wasn't an option or a choice. Today he's an healthy 7 normal years old Canadian who had the top infant cardiac surgeons in the world for multiple surgeries.

So, yes, the government. It may not be monetarily profitable but money shouldn't matter to build a humane society.

To their defense, it seems to be an app that demonstrates usage of the library. Also seems to used for benchmarking. That would explain why the Redis database can be easily flushed through a simple URL.

I don't know what's the fuss about 32GB and OS X/MacOS but I upgraded my iMac to 32GB (from 8) and when booting, it still prefers to swap than to use the memory it has access to. For the next hour, it slowly starts using more memory and will use even more than 16GB. I suspect the OS isn't optimized to efficiently use more than 16GB.

Would love to read some explanation on how this is made. Very impressive!

It must be due to the fact it is not the original hardware with the same controllers, etc. That's one thing that goes against the nostalgia feeling (other than bad games).

For example, when I see an original arcade machine (of an excellent game), I cannot not play it.

What I'm looking for is a plugin that can make a entire Wordpress site static to freeze sites in time so they don't require Wordpress, PHP or MySQL.

Another workflow could be to use WordPress locally in a VM to edit, then generate a static site you upload through git or whatever to a bare minimum server.

Any plugin that fit the bill? I remember searching but never found something perfect.

If you look at the features section of the GitGub project, it says it is based on dateutil and actually added features on top of it.

Do you know how much it would have cost in the US? More than $1.5MM is the estimate I got. If you were to pay here as a non Canadian. About $200-300K. The missing $1MM, where is it going and where is it coming from? Everything is relative when you say everyone pay because of taxes. I would from you salary and insurance. At the end of the day, who's paying more? I don't know. But I'll tell you something: in the States, our choice would have been an late and illegal abortion or a bankruptcy. Today, we have a marvellous son that our society decided we should protect at all cost.

When he was born, my son had cardiac surgery. Had another one 4 months later and a catheter later on. The two surgeries were done by one of the top 10 surgeons in the world. All in all, he was 6 weeks in the hospital. He's now in very good health. Since we live in Canada, it costs us nothing except the parking at the hospital (about $120 total with a pass) and the lost work time.

I was wondering the same thing. Also, isn't it possible that how they lived and in which environment before committing a murder affected their brain?

Sounds like a very good idea. In some industries, Excel is still the state of the art.

Or like myself, hire a firm once in your career, assist to the free government course and do it yourself in the future. The trick is really learning what they are looking for in the write up and scientific audit. The rest of the claim is easy. And once you're approved, you usually don't get audited thereafter.

Thanks to you too!

Thanks!

I wonder if I could do the following... Any help would be appreciated.

Here's the scenario: a seller is selling something expensive. Some buyers may prefer purchasing by credit card (simple) but others may prefer to wire money to the seller. To guarantee the transaction, we would take an authorization on a credit card for, let's say 10 days and if the buyer transfers the amount during that time, we remove the hold on the credit card. If he hasn't transferred the money after the elapsed time, then we would charge the card.

Would Stripe or Balanced support such a scenario and if so, what would be the fees? Is there any impact of having a lot of CC holds that don't go through?
