If you did get a seriously large lump of cash… after a settling in period a lot of changes will happen, and you will be happy they did (IMHO).
The reason is that one of the biggest gifts that wealth gives you is TIME. A lot of the day to day crap that the rest of us need to deal with just evaporates. No need to shop (there are people for that). Want to travel… people will organise everything. There will be no waiting in lines at airports, at restaurants, at government offices… there are people for that. Someone to clean, someone to pick up the kids (unless you want to of course), someone to cook, holidays on a fuck-off huge yacht with crew to manage everything, or just to zip to Paris for the weekend.
You will probably really appreciate not having to deal with most of that crap. Also, while you probably don’t want a stupid large house, you do want privacy and so will want to get a house on 1000 acres in a gorgeous landscape (plus perhaps apartments in various cities that you like).
Imagine moving from a food insecure lifestyle to a secure lifestyle where food, safety, housing is always there. Would you want to keep your old food-insecure lifestyle? No. Same with going from a food secure lifestyle to a time-and-resource abundant lifestyle.
Yeah, started working for me a few hours later.
And clicking on the activation link again shows »too many tries »
I signed up, got the activation email, clicked on that which took me to the login page.
Logging in shows me a message that I am not activated.
Weird.
Yes! This bugs the hell out of me. Chrome works perfectly, but I would prefer safari.
Also - if you turn the office webpage into an app in safari and Chrome, only Chrome works.
I’d love to know how to fix it.
I second the advice to switch to a different/previous/known good kernel. That has been the cause a most boot problems for me. I just had it happen on a VM a couple of weeks ago, so I switched to the old kernel, then removed the new kernel. I’ll wait for another kernel before upgrading.
It’s probably worth scanning your disk just in case as well.
That’s the sucker. Just stick an “H” on his forehead…
One other (slightly funny) aspect, for some of us older people. The leader of the Act party - David Seymour - is a dead ringer for Arnold Rimmer from Red Dwarf. As Lister would say - they are both complete knobheads.
Act is waaaaaay to the right of any other party in NZ.
NZ First have partnered with Labour (left) and with National (right) over the years. Their strength is mainly around the leader (Winston Peters) who is a real firebrand and somehow they pull 5-7% or so every year (although they disappeared below the threshold in the 2020 election). IIRC their support is more in the older generation.
I would say their economics are centrist, but they tend to be conservative on other issues.
In the 2017 govt when they partnered with Labour (left), Winston became deputy prime minister and foreign minister and the rumours were that he was pretty effective and hardworking in the foreign minister position.
I always plug in. I don’t know if it works with calibre server.
My unmodified kobo syncs with calibre.
I wish you both the best.
This is not true. I think a more accurate term would be we swung for change. Green vote held up, it was mainly labour that dived. Having said that, the extreme right, Act, did do well with about 9%. And it’s also worth noting that both national (right) and labour (left) would be considered quite middle of the road elsewhere.
I learned the hard way about the beauty of backups and the 3, 2, 1 rule. And snapshots are the GOAT.
Even large and (supposedly) sophisticated teams can make this mistake, so dont feel bad. It’s all part of learning and growth. You have learned the lesson in a very real and visceral way - it will stick with you forever.
Example - a very large customer running our product across multiple servers, talking back to a large central (and shared) DB server. DB server shat itself. They called us up to see if we had any logs that could be used to reconstruct our part of their database server, because it turned out they had no backups. Had to say no.
Damn… I feel for you. It sounds like you are in a tough spot. There’s lots of good advice on this page, and the one thing I will add is to protect and keep working on your relationship. Money is the core component of many (or was it most?) relationship problems.
You can get through it, but (IMHO) you need your wife right there with you (or at least, I did). We were doing ok until I tried to start a business and dropped my 9-5 job. Revenue was slim, and then at one point I earned nothing for 6 months. We were on the bones of our arse - living off a meagre kindergarten teacher’s wage paying rent and food. Without my wife, we would have drowned. She did amazing things in budgeting down to the last penny, no luxuries, riding everywhere, spending time together. It was hard and there was no end in sight for a long time. We were very lucky and things turned around. But I would have not managed it without her (and her incredible budgets).
It sound like you have been deep in it for longer than we were, and I wish you all the best in working your way out.
When I look closer at the source, I can see they are using data-icon-name for the image, so it’s likely using fluent-ui, and loading these icon resources from a font.
I can see a whole lot of fonts loading, although they do show some warnings:
The resource https://res-h3.public.cdn.office.net/assets/mail/fonts/v1/fonts/segoeui-semilight.woff was preloaded using link preload but not used within a few seconds from the window's load event. Please make sure it wasn't preloaded for nothing.
This is repeated for a number of versions of that font. I cannot see any font resources actually failing to load.
Lockdown mode and MS Office Web - icons missing
I’ve got Lockdown enabled on my mac. Most things are fine. But MS Office for the web is not.
For most web pages, you can select whether lockdown applies. I have done this for Office: !
When looking at office in the browser, a red message appears in the top right “Lockdown Off”. But when the office web page shows, all the icons are blank:
I looked at the web page source - and can see that some material is being loaded from here:
res-h3.public.cdn.office.net
I have also set this to be excluded from lockdown. But that didn’t help.
Has anyone got MS Office for the web working under Lockdown Mode? Thx
My smaller battery MX Tesla, after 7 years, has gone from 330km to 308km. The degradation is a lot slower than you indicate.
He’s talking about the USA, so the guard could shoot your neighbour and be suspended with pay. If he wants to be extra cautious, he could yell stop resisting after shooting him.
I am one… but I’m the only one I know at my company and socially.
The lists are quite similar with a slight reordering in the top 7 or 8. I guess both lists are a representative sample of developers… But there is one interesting difference:
IEEE: Python, Java, C++, C, JS, SQL, Go TIOBE: Python, C, C++, Java, C#, JS, VB (!), SQL
In IEEE, VB is way way down the list. Do IEEE members use VB less?
I’m always amazed that C still scores so high, but I’ve been told there is a lot of embedded work still going on.
Stability just dived
Dunno what is triggering it, but in the last 2 days I’m getting a log of crashes when touching on a post. It was far less frequent before that.

Can you please clarify the privacy position of the app? As usual, TestFlight says you can get everything. What information are you scraping?
