Something I found lacking in America's 45th.

I do not have an Apple to test on but line 42 and forward I don't see code for MAC. Why?

I can't type all the steps here as I'm just not going to put in that much work. HOWEVER I do see this very well covered at
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/config-mingw

NDC (New Distribution Capability) is a travel industry-supported program (NDC Program) launched by IATA for the development and market adoption of a new, XML-based data transmission standard (NDC Standard).

• iata.org

There's more at iata.org's website for developers.

As to the output I don't see any output statements (printf and such.) A highly optimizing compiler would strip out lines 9 to 12 as well as the copy_str() function.

Any professor or teacher that thinks this is OK needs to move forward many decades.

So many articles out there on this such as https://medium.com/maclaurin-group/what-is-clear-text-passwords-and-why-you-shouldnt-store-them-e61c604b1fb7

If I were grading this, it would get an instant fail.

Some write "everything's broken." I don't want to be dismissive here but 7 or Nougat is still dated. But given the story I'm not ready to call it an OS issue.

I've seen this failure and it's the author or company that hasn't kept their Google Play Store working. You might have to resort to https://www.google.com/search?q=VeryFit+Pro+apk

But sideloading can be yet another adventure or learning experience. For me I did a fair bit of Android app programming so I learned a lot of workarounds and as you expected have run into far too many awful smartphones.

As I follow the code, at line 35 both x and answer are undefined so this comparison would be true and why the comparison is true.

Now that you've told a little more, finding the best would have you write down a list of requirements to find which is best then begin a study. I doubt that is what you need to invest here. Also, you didn't reveal what the hack job was so if you were to hack Windows you most likely would be on Windows but if you were trying to hack a login on some WiFi system then Parrot or something else would be fine.

There is no best. It's like a painter's set or brushes. You pick one that gets the effect you want.

Finally sometimes the hack is not something computer related. If you want to infiltrate a building, a maintenance company shirt, attire, and a clipborad used to get you past the guard and may still work well today.

Which market? Also, for spamming or your clients such as Constant Contact?

From what I learned running shops long ago it's never changed from:

1. Products that people want.
2. Service.
3. Value.
4. A little marketing.

Let's see where you are stuck. https://www.daniweb.com/welcome/rules does note that for homework and more you show your work.

That's a real issue. Most folk only have to deal with their own machines. Are you trying to start a repair shop?

Now I see it. Why are there TWO main()?
See lines 7 and 26.

In your profile is this:

One Bpo Shop is a trusted name as a Digital Marketing Agency

Shouldn't you be answering this question rather than asking? Of is this agency new and to be avoided?

Just so you know, this has both ENCODE and DECODE at one of my favorite sites:

1. Encode in over 150 languages -> https://www.rosettacode.org/wiki/Roman_numerals/Encode
2. Decode in over 123 languages -> https://www.rosettacode.org/wiki/Roman_numerals/Decode

In your case, the correct way is what you decide as long as it works. What else could the answer be?

I see your comment but there is no question yet. Maybe you are asking others to write what looks like homework or an assignment but didn't state that. That's OK, here's the part from the Community Rules about homework:

Do provide evidence of having done some work yourself if posting questions from school or work assignments

Show your work, state where you got stuck and keep what your example small so others can see what the issues are.

What is the question here?

I can't find your question!

It appears line 18 returned null which is a correct response according to
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.win32.registrykey.opensubkey?view=net-5.0

You'll have to test for that condition.

When I read this, I think "this looks like a job for AutoHotkey (AHK.)" Such as https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/37947-turn-keyboard-into-mouse/

You can assign these moves as you see fit and I recall AHK allows you to move the mouse pointer to absolute coordinates.

If you ask me which keyboard key to use, I can't answer since it's not me that will be using this.

My question is still: What does this C# code plug into? Again, some call a method or function a plugin so let's clear this up.

What does this C# plug into? That's unclear. Sometimes I find a person call a method or function a "plugin" so let's clear that up now.
That asked, I see some nice examples that could lead to your solution but can't tell what you want as to the plugin at:
https://www.google.com/search?&q=get+all+lookups+from+a+lookup+field+in+Dynamics+365+CRM+in+C%23

I'll guess you really meant the following as you didn't indicate where to store in the arrays phy, math and chem.

Try this:

    #include<iostream>
    #include<conio.h>
    using namespace std;

    struct marks{
        int phy[10];
        int math[10];
        int chem[10];
    };
    int main(){

        struct marks m;
        int i,n;
        cout<<"Enter the number of students : " << endl;
        cin >>n;
        for(i=0;i<n;i++){
            cout<<"\nEnter Physics marks: " << endl;
            cin >> m.phy[i]; 

            cout<<"\nEnter Maths marks : "<< endl;
            cin >> m.math[i];

            cout<<"\nEnter Chemistry marks : "<< endl;
            cin >> m.chem[i];
        }

        cout<<"\nStudents mark details : \n"<< endl;

        for(i=0;i<n;i++){

            cout<<"\nMarks of Student"<< i+1 <<" : "<< endl;
            cout<<"\nPhysics marks: "<< m.phy[i]<< endl;
            cout<<"\nMaths marks: "<< m.math[i]<< endl;
            cout<<"\nChemistry marks: "<< m.chem[i]<< endl;
            cout<<"\n"<< endl;

        }
        return 0;
    }

Ahh, now I see it. Your post title asked about the connection result which as an old MySQL person I took as exactly that.
Nod to https://www.connectionstrings.com/mysql/

If I swap your use of connection for "query" then that changes the question to something else.

While I can't guess your end goal of the query I would change the query to a single query since both appear to be from the same table.

The problem is not one the seller worries about in the USA due to laws here. Since there are about 195 countries in the world I'll stick to the USA for the moment and copy from the web about merchant liability here.

Generally, the bank is more likely to be liable for the fraud for card-present transactions, while the merchant might get stuck with the cost for transactions without a physical card. (Merchants using the older swipe payment terminals and not the newer chip readers also incur more liability.)

• https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/credit-cards/merchants-victims-credit-card-fraud

This is why merchants don't fret about this much as they only lose the transaction costs rather than the full amount of the sale.

From your last post it appears that client and maybe the developer is chafed by copyright and trademark laws. In my reply above about going down the rabbit hole I attempted to gently break it to all that we can't go get images from where ever and not have a worry about possible actions by the copy/trademark holders.

In extreme cases like https://www.motorious.com/articles/news/s550-eleanor-seized/ you find the car's image and name is so tied up in legal wrangling that you won't go near that image or name.

I bet folk new to this will be floored.

This could be a very long discussion but it's your EULA so write it as best you can, have it reviewed by other team members and see what they think.

Let me share a story about work I did for a company. They wanted to own my code but they didn't employ me or pay in advance so my choice was to keep ownership of both code and algorithms but give them a license to use. To add some humor to the agreement I added the license was valid for the planet known as Earth. They ran it past their legal department and we worked together for decades.

I found no simple way to do this. So let's bodge a solution together with two steps.

1. Let's get access to PowerShell from Python with:
   https://www.phillipsj.net/posts/executing-powershell-from-python/

2. Now we can use the unmute from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21355891/change-audio-level-from-powershell

Nod to https://www.quora.com/Which-one-is-better-SDL-or-SFML and other discussions finds SFML is not a game engine.

But it may be good enough for what you need. If your goal is to become a game developer, look at the games you think you wanted to have been on the team then see what engines they used.

Closer to home, my son is currently doing work using the Unity Engine.

I see nothing wrong with learncpp and other such sites. But eventually you'll want some time at school, acquiring that degree.

On top of that we see some shilling going on. Dani once wrote that this is OK since it's "Fake it till you make it." That's typical for companies and people like Theranos. We see where they usually land. Also:

How do you get yourself to a point of believing? Start make-believing. Be like a child, and make-believe. Act as if you have it already. As you make-believe, you will begin to believe you have received.
— Rhonda Byrne, The Secret (2006)

Let's see where this goes from here.

While my view is this is all spam, why not leave it there and see what Dani does? For now I'm stepping back to deal with a rental property and see where Dani is going next with Premium and spam.

What many of us call spam, Dani seems to think "this is good for SEO" therefore the message to me is this is a spam friendly place.

Dune - Let the spice flow.
Dani - Let the spam flow.

You may have left out details such as you have a new PC and it came with the new Office which is "Live" and you want to run Office 2003 instead. To do that you remove the Office the PC came with and install your copy. This is not automatic and sometimes I have to run Revo (google that if you haven't heard of it.)

Given travel restrictions and many OTAs failing, what makes you think this is the time to start such a business?

I don't see countries opening the borders so where would you travel today?

Also, I'm reading https://www.abta.com/help-and-complaints/failures

For meayrs, it's time to read https://www.upguard.com/breaches/power-apps

My brother is turning off his Quickbooks Cloud in a few months. Why? Recent price increases and he can do the accounting without their cloud.

As to server reliability it's not hard to make your own cloud. Also, in over 2 decades we've yet to see a hard drive failure. Why? We get reports ahead of time with SMART plus we know what to look out for.

I've read such claims before and my view is it's inherently unsafe. That is, if your business ERP is its lifeblood and the cloud provider you used is shut off by any of the usual methods or events then your business is toast.

Nod to https://www.forbes.com/sites/joemckendrick/2012/08/06/apple-co-founder-steve-wozniak-distrusts-the-cloud-is-he-right/?sh=43af80ce6042

If you do decide to go with a cloud solution, does it also have a system you can run on your own local server?
If not, that cloud ERP is unsafe.

I worry here. That is, how else would you get the information needed to process the payment?

Answer: It's legal to be paid for a product or service.

I can't guess the host OS, configuration and more but for us we would just FTP the files out to a new location, email them or something else. I can't guess what the server is here so it's unlikely I'll know how it's done for this server.

Since you need this, your host/employer should tell how to get this done if you can't find a way on your own.

$new_status seems fine in my test. But your $sendData statement? I can't tell what your intent was there.

Here's what I tested with an online PHP tool.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
$new_status = "01010101";

$sendData = '{ "messages" : [ { "content" : "Your order is $new_status.", } ] }';

echo "<h2>" . $new_status . "</h2>";
echo  $sendData . "<br>";
?>

</body>
</html>

Small world. My last W2000 SP4 (I mention SP4 because it matters when we run this old OS) was a:

Self made PC with (two!) Pentium Pro II Overdrive CPUs. See http://www.os2museum.com/wp/intel-overdrive-part-iii-pentium-ii-overdrive/ for an idea of the power of the dark side back then. (We have cookies.) I had maxed out the RAM on the machine at 64MB (expensive back then) and for the HDDs it was some SCSI RAID 0. The graphics card was some early Nvidia or 3DFX. When it came time to move on I changed out the HDD array to a simpler single IDE drive which was the style at the time. Nod to the PS below! Otherwise the new owner would not be able to deal with SCSI rules.

All that aside, I can't tell if your setup ever worked yet but you do want to try the USB LEGACY settings in the BIOS and use PS/2 connected mouse and keyboard.

-> Thanks for the memories!

PS: "We can't bust heads like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of …

This would be a very bad thing. Authors that don't release their works into the public domain would be deprived of income and more.

-> No one needs this.

Looking over the ideas from HAK5 (YouTube, forum, etc.) you would never stop with any one OS or system. I must ask the following: Why stop here?

Seems there is. However the code looks to be for sale and the quick research I did here didn't find an open source solution.

Looks like a great project for you to create and make a name for yourself?

I don't see in the code where a barcode font or image builder is used.

How about you share a source for your 7 of 9 barcode system?

Caitlyn seems to work hard to talk up that app on the web. It's almost like they work there!

The data you can mine using the link provided plus other methods do seem to let you build up the information you would need to build a profile about fake accounts.

Mind you I am writing about creation of a system and not about what is out there today. There are companies and apps already out there. My thoughts are "How could we do this ourselves?"

As to direct accesss to the twitter database well, let's not get into facebook and twitter data leaks or more such as
https://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2020/07/18/twitter-hackers-successfully-manipulated-a-small-number-of-employees-stole-personal-data-from-at-least-8-targeted-accounts/

Given some cash and a pretty face I bet you can get the data you want from almost any company.

PS. I want to write about how much control we have at startup in Linux via the usual startup scripts located in the /etc/rc.

For most, that's a no-go since few want to tinker there. I can't tell you what to change since I'm just a long time Linux user, coder and such. For the office we fix bad laptops since such workarounds are too costly in terms of time. We can make more money doing almost anything else. I feel for you but to fix this you get to ask and hope in the Arch forums or dive into the scripts that run at startup in /etc/rc.

In regards to no responses mostly:

1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warnock%27s_dilemma for reference. Folk would have to actively seek out your posting as far as I can tell. I read from https://www.daniweb.com/articles/latest/articles so I'll notice new content as the front page doesn't have highlights for me of important topics. I think item #3 "No one read the post, for whatever reason." is mostly why so little response. As I would be the outlier (a person or thing differing from all other members of a particular group or set) I thought it best to not reply in public so you would get pristine feedback.
   To tackle item 3 of Warnock's Dilemma maybe this should be in your monthly email rather than a discussion and the front page.

2. "Everything is a subscription now" or https://www.google.com/search?&q=everything+is+a+subscription+now to see how this is being perceived and written about.
   I'm getting the feeling that many are starting to feel irked at the number of subscriptions in their lives. Recently when reviewing bids on our solar system, one installer was kicked out instantly when they had a yearly subscription charge. Yes I did look at their offering and it came up woefully short on value and felt like "rent seeking." This is not all that you are challenged with here getting folk to pay for the extras but it's got to be one of them.

3. To address getting more subscriptions might be two pronged. Maybe you'll have to work the front page …
