Re:Dropbox CEO Drew Houston to step down on Tuesday May 26, 2026 @02:27PM (#48283765)
They were seemingly everywhere and lots of apps and services offered Dropbox as an option. 200 million users in 2013.

Then they crippled the free plan and Apple and MS started pushing their services hard. And Dropbox seemed less ubiquitous after that.

For iPhones your eyes have to be open.

I’ve got to think some cops are good at holding up the phone and saying look at this text message and people opening eyes to see it though.

That’s been flagged.
I know there are overseas recipients - so possibly quite far.
Re:Do you need ID to read the REAL-ID rules? on Monday November 25, 2024 @10:05PM (#42242233)
Watch the old folks in wheelchairs. Many of those people have no valid ID.
Zelle did that, but then the news had stories about Granny sent money to a scammer and the bank won’t give back her money.

If you can get the PIN (shoulder surfing, social engineering) you can reset/change the Apple ID password.

Reportedly then you can add a second face to Face ID with Set Up Alternate Appearance and get access to everything, but I have not seen that confirmed.

And yet they have not delivered once since last year.

How about binding with Carbon and getting methane (CH4)?
You can always leave the secure area, but you can’t enter without a valid, current boarding pass.

Some airports have significantly different services airside vs landside - food, seating, etc.

Standby might be significantly easier from the airside - you can wander over to the gate vs getting a new boarding pass.

I unfortunately agree with you.

I wish I was better at home than the office, but I am not.

It did for me - it delayed my start by a few weeks.

They had to consult legal. Repost the job w/salaries. Then extend the formal offer.

Does this apply to XBox and PlayStation?
I am using MXRoute.com. They have a lifetime account with unlimited addresses and some limits.

Looks like the price has gone up since I signed up, but so did the storage included.

Apple Maps gives better turn by turn directions (in general).

Google has better data.

We had a recent RAV4 and the radar cruise was quite good, but the lane keeping was tragically bad and we turned it off very quickly.
Both of those have big gear boxes (9.5:1 or 14:1) between the engine and propeller.

There are a handful of drives that support booting via bios - Samsung 950 Pro is the most common.
The 2018 Intel Mac Mini has user-replaceable RAM. The 2014 mini has fixed RAM.

They went after a lot of sites with Volvo in the name - VolvoWorld.com became VlvWorld.com. They have since closed, but they sold parts.

Per wiki looks like just over 200 deaths involving Amtrak since 1971 - not including most grade crossing accidents and trespasser strikes.
This is going to be big. You can make solar more reliable by over building. Then you can use that sporadically surplus electricity to make liquid fuels - needed for aviation and handy for trains and trucks.

Apple shipped the ARM powered Newton in 1993.
If you believe their copy it won’t work on most computers in a tower case, since the CPU isn’t on the bottom and it uses a gravity feed to return the liquid.

There are a couple of KVMs that supposedly do USB to PS2.

ATEN CS82U and IOGEAR GCS1722 are two I looked at. About $55 on Amazon.
