I'm absolutely angry at Microsoft that decided that they could just take away my MC license.

Bought the game in 2020, played a few sessions then forgot about it. When I tried to play again a few months ago, I learned that they migrated accounts to microsoft.

Since I didn't migrate in time, I just lost my license and need to buy the game again. [1]

As the migration period has ended, Minecraft Support will no longer assist with migration-related queries. >To continue playing Minecraft, you can purchase both Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft: Bedrock edition as one product on the Xbox Store or explore Different Minecraft Editions for other platforms.

Personally, I've mislabeled the one with the animal in the restaurant as AI generated. I might have clicked too quickly because it was looking like the animals trampolines video's. I've not really looked at the timestamps.

I'm generally good at detecting AI generated content but I might have a few false positives. :)

This vibed coded implementation is buggy.

If you go to 64.00×, it can't slow back anymore.

I used to have a google account with my personal domain then I registered to Google Workspace 4-5 years ago. Since then, I have this message when I log in :

Your account has been modified. The address user@domain.com is no longer available because an organization has reserved rickynotaro.com. Why is this important now? Don't worry. Your data is safe. To use them, you must create an account with a different email address. Your password and security settings will remain unchanged.

Account details What type of account do you want to use? An account with Gmail and a new Gmail address Select this option to add Gmail to this account. Unfortunately, we cannot move your data into an account with an existing Gmail address. Account using an email address belonging to you, not linked to Google. Ex.: myname@yahoo.com Choose this option if you want Google products except Gmail. Btn_Continue Btn_Do_it_later Not sure what to do?

I've been pressing "Do it later" for years. I'm still using this account for youtube, maps and other services.

I should probably use a secondary domain and use this address.

Some service prevents me from changing my email address when signing with google and weird behavious happens when it tries to use my user%domain.com@gtempaccount.com

Google documents it here: https://support.google.com/accounts/troubleshooter/1699308?h...

I actually do and it works pretty well. My Yubikeys are NFC compatible. I have my OTP generated on it and also use it for U2F / Webauth. I only need to tap my key to my phone for 2FAuthentification.

I personally pay 10$ a month for GSuite basically to handle the mail of my personal domain name. Is it worth it? I'm not sure yet but I had way to much issues with email not delivered in the past (blacklisted IP ranges, reputation, etc.) when I had my own mail server.

I prefer paying 10$ a month and forget about mail server issues and wondering if my mail is going to the spam folder..

On most recent version of Android, they have a whitelist feature where repeat callers (2 times withing 15 minutes) can bypass DoNotDisturb.

Only my close family are whitelisted.

Most time people call twice during an emergency. You could also say to call back again in case of emergency in your voicemail message.

In Canada that's the amount where your transaction get automatically submitted to FINTRAC (Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada). Abnormal smaller transaction patterns and suspicious transaction can also be reported to FINTRAC for analysis.

"FINTRAC analyzes approximately 19 million transactions per year. In 2017, FINTRAC made 2,000 disclosures to police forces." according to Wikipedia.

Before the pandemic, I went to Japan for 3 weeks and my cellphone was absolutely a lifesaver.

I went to a lot of city where I would have been lost without Google Lens, Google Maps, HyperDia for trains, "Japan Official Travel App", etc.

But with it, I've traveled accross less touristic cities and I was feeling confortable visiting local places without ant knowledge of the Japanese language beside a few words.

I would never dare to do that without my phone.

That's probably because you are running Netflix in Google Chrom. The streams are 720P (1280x720) and hava a lower level of DRM.

Only Microsoft Edge and natives apps are providing the highest definition available. You can see the stats by pressing CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-D while Netflix is active.
