Re: DiDi appears to be some China based UBER service but then again I can't find a question or much else to discuss here. | |
Re: I see pritaeas has answered so I'll move to the next stage of the discussion which is to ask what you need in your web site. For example there is an "online notepad" which does some basic notepad work. And there are many screensavers that run from a webpage with … | |
Re: If this is your first foray into data recovery, it's best to send it to data recovery shops. Any do-it-yourself or recovery apps are never a sure thing. You can try RECUVA but sometimes folk balk that it doesn't FIX the drive. No data recovery app should write to said … | |
Re: I see content from about July 2024. You are being impatient. Traffic and such take time to grow. Some want instant results. | |
Re: For me that's a script with three lines. Echo something. do something sleep 60 goto top This is psuedo code so you need to craft it for the shell you use. | |
Re: Electrical worker's joke: Q. Why do the lines hum? A. Because they don't know the words. | |
Re: Interesting site. I made many trips overseas to find out why the company products were experiencing early failures. Nearly all the hardware failures were tracked back to [Counterfeit electronic components](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterfeit_electronic_components). Does your company warrant the components and pay for the damage caused? | |
Re: I thought that idea was dead. The new thing appears to be the Zuck's AI In Everything which I don't need in my toaster. | |
Re: And here I'm hearing: # > Stop putting AI into everything. Also, you don't want something so why buy what you don't want? | |
Re: Think of a toolbox. Why buy tools you aren't going to use? ## Yup, everyone needs a 10 meter wide hole saw. | |
Re: There are dozens if not over a hundred of these out there. There's no way for me to pick one for you. However there are a lot of folk trying to "script" their way into running sites without putting in the time to learn about what they are using. Google … | |
Re: Sure. Go to Moscow, check into their bureau of economic development and you'll do fine. Let us know how it turns out. | |
Re: Please share the answer. Also, a man with one watch knows what time it is, a man with two watches is never sure. Same for using multiple tools, you can't be sure once you measure with different tools. | |
Re: My ATT story. Moved from MA to CA and needed to get the apartment setup. The apartment complex was an ATT only zone. Fine. Call ATT and their phone system kept routing me to their Massachusetts offices. No one at ATT could override that or forward me to the right … | |
Re: Can you substantiate such a claim? It's been over a decade but we deployed a Tomcat server to do vehicle tracking and didn't have any speed issues. Then again we didn't bother with Google's pagespeed testing. The site was just fine. | |
Re: In the news: > [Trump Administration Withdraws ADA Guidance ](https://www.disabilityscoop.com/2025/03/20/trump-administration-withdraws-ada-guidance/31368/) Looks like it's no longer a problem. | |
Re: For now I'd not visit the worst of the 195 countries in the world. The USA has changed teams so it's far too dangerous for visitors today. Also: > The **best in this** kind are but shadows, and the worst are no worse if imagination amend them. Play: A Midsummer … | |
Re: "Never judge a book by its cover." - Unknown. And book sales are way way down. But here's the book I recently bought. It's title is: ***"The Subtle Art of Resistance: Lessons from Cats for Surviving Fascism"*** which is the problem of today. PDFs and E-books are where it's at. | |
Re: Best Danish joke I heard today follows: Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen: Do you want to hear a Joke? Trump: Sure. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen: **Greenland.** Trump: I don't get it. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen: Exactly. | |
Re: Good timing. Here's a note from someone in my circle: > My boss uses a ChatGPT-alternative to generate complex database queries. He points it at the database server, gives it credentials, and then asks it in plain language to come up with a complex SQL query. It figures out the … | |
Re: Thanks for the MVE (minimum viable example). But it's just bad code. c, c++ and a lot of language won't stop you from going out of bounds. | |
Re: Given the state of affairs in the USA, any security we thought we had is gone. DOGE is gaining access by force now. Do we really need this conversation? | |
Re: Isn't that a little basic for the Dev Technosys company to not fix themselves? What happened to the coders and developers you had? | |
| |
Re: The events in the country I live have lit a fire under me so while I am retired my new job is: 1. Activist. 2. Calls and letters to representatives which I find with 5calls.org and the government web pages. We are living the part of the story where people … | |
Re: My favorite reply so far: > Why should I read what no one wrote? | |
Re: I would NOT do this. The A9 wasn't on the list of phones according to Samsung that had this feature. But hey, try https://www.ebay.com/itm/272284482999 and for the keyboard and mouse go get BLUETOOTH models. I've seen folk do this and they feel upset it doesn't turn the phone into anything … | |
Re: Your post reminds me of another question. Which is: > How do you get to Carnegie Hall? The answer to that is the same as getting better at web sites. Practice, practice, practice. There are folk that ask such questions but fib about the question in a vain attempt at … | |
Re: Who thought up that project name. Reminds me of **Kafkaesque** times. | |
Re: TBT, while I have a spiffy new W11 laptop I'm still migrating so I haven't seen this issue. But I won't give you nothing. (?) See https://i.imgur.com/1N625p5.png and look at the bottom right about "When to raise the interface". Try the other setting? |
The End.
