The article follows that âoelightly loadedâ by talking about near the end of the flight having less fuel in the tanks. I donâ(TM)t think the article is necessarily saying the plane was lightly loaded with cargo.
Agreed - who the hell provides their birthday to a photo sharing service? If it's required because of the possibility of adult content, who the hell provides their *real* birthday?
From what I've seen out the window, it looks like they don't even load connecting flight luggage until the passenger has had their boarding pass scanned at the gate.
If itâ(TM)s my doctor calling, theyâ(TM)re either speaking directly to me from the start, or leaving me a message to call them. HIPAA isnâ(TM)t going to let them âoecommunicateâ with some kind of wacky software assistant.
In the last year I've bought several new devices with USB connectors. In all cases the computer-end of the included cable was USB-A, and in all but one case (the GoPro) the device end was micro USB-B. These are not only currently shipping products, but one of them is brand-new to the market two months ago. I *might* have considered one of these MacBook Pros to replace my 2012 11" MacBook (an excellent form factor for travel but a lousy screen resolution for FCPX or Lightroom) if they'd gone back to a decent keyboard, but I'm not going to use something where I can't even tell if the keystroke registered or not. And no, I don't want haptic feedback, I want key travel.
Will it be like the Timex Sinclair 1000 keyboard, the Atari 400 keyboard, the PC Jr keyboard, or the original TI99-4 keyboard? They all kept out liquids and crumbs. Oh, and they sucked.
You're just plain wrong. The closest turbines would have been only four miles off the shore of the Cape. Colby did a visibility study https://digitalcommons.colby.e... and found that “41.25% of residential areas will be able to see 90% of at least one tower.”
The problematic sequence that gets generated is the capital I followed by the hex sequence ef b8 8f, which is known as Variation Selector 16. That's “An invisible codepoint which specifies that the preceding character should be displayed with emoji presentation. Only required if the preceding character defaults to text presentation.” So in a sense it's technically correct, it's trying to say to display an eye or eyes when you've typed an "I". The problem is twofold: a) people aren't trying to type emoji, and 2) it doesn't actually work.
It means I can no longer simply tap off BT in the Control Center to stop draining the battery of my Apple Pencil since the motion of carrying it around with the iPad wakes it up and connects it, since there's no "off" button. Because why would it need one when it has motion sensors to know when it's being used or not
This. I would rather buy local, fresh from the farm a couple miles down the road, pesticide and chemical-free, but not certified organic because the certification process is too damned expensive.
I know relatives who leave their car unlocked but don't store anything of value (apart from a 10kg bag of cat kibble).
That's a horrible idea. Seriously. That's just asking for a mouse infestation. Once they're in the car they'll chew on wires, get into the insulation and if they nest in the heating/ventilation system you'll never get the urine smell out.
I have a Withings scale and use the Withings Health Mate iOS app to control it. I just checked and Health Mate is still available in the iOS App Store. They may have pulled the scale or other "physical" products out of the Apple Store (online and/or brick and mortar) but do not appear to have done anything with the iOS App Store.
Uh, yes, I do. I'm in fact capable of talking about two different technologies in the same post.
Yes, Windows boxes can wake on lan but in your case it sounds like the other computer is doing the waking. That's not the same as Bonjour Sleep Proxy, where the router continues to advertise the service via mDNS even though the machine that was offering that service has gone to sleep. Your "favorites" are completely different from Bonjour-advertised services. And my question remains about whether this means the end of NAT-PMP in favor of uPNP or not.
Airplay, mentioned by other responders, is another technology which I leverage strongly in the house and forgot to mention. I have Airport Extremes (which I have to use an ancient Netbook running XP in order to run a version of the #$%@! configuration utility that will work with them — hate you for that, Apple) plugged into powered speaker systems in several places in the house. When they eventually die, what will I replace them with? An old laptop running Airfoil Satellite???
One thing Apple routers had was the ability to set themselves up as a Bonjour proxy, so for example your Mac could advertise its iTunes library sharing, but go to sleep. The router would repoint the address to itself, and if you tried to access that library from another device, the router would send a wakeup to the Mac, then repoint Bonjour back at it.
Also, while the rest of the world uses uPNP, Apple routers use NAT-PMP.
Are these technologies just dead now?
And in response to the comments above about more availability for network drives to be used as remote Time Machine backups, instead of requiring a Time Capsule, will Apple decide to kill off remote backups entirely because the experience is no longer guaranteed or even consistent with third-party devices?
Because if your Desktop and Documents folders live on iCloud drive, and your music streams from the iTunes store, why would you need a Time Machine backup any more?
iPads, and even iPhones, can connect to Bluetooth keyboards and use them just fine. In fact, some UX exists solely if you have a keyboard, such as the Cmd-Tab task switcher. The iPad Pro models also have the smart connector keyboards. They're pretty decent - as a touch typist I have no problem using them.
That said, an onscreen keyboard is fantastic when you just want to hold the device in your hands. Would I want to do a ton of typing that way? Absolutely not. But when it's useful, it's incredibly useful.
The menus on Canon cameras are actually one of the best features and one I tout when people ask me for camera suggestions. Every Canon digital camera I've owned since the late 90's, whether various models of point and shoot, or five different dSLR models (including the 5Dmk3) has a menu system consistent with the other models. There are more options in some cameras compared to others, especially the 5, but they all work the same. If you've used any Canon camera you can pick up another model and immediately know how to navigate the menus and set things up. That kind of consistent experience is a real win.
Oooh, shiny! Thanks, I'll definitely have to give that a try. I want to check out its strategy for attachments, since I have so many map and owners manual PDFs associated with my current notes.

Or more likely they'd fill the seat with someone on standby.

What about this one?

Excellent, thank you.
