Sorry you have to deal with this, what a nightmare, hopefully you're able to get your money back.
Great idea, however for some idea ctrl + z (undo) does not work.
Re:I designed my website to look like a chat log on Tuesday November 19, 2024 @09:37PM (#42190350)
I like the idea, looks really good.

I would put the example logos higher up in the chat is my only suggestion.

Looks really good, going to test it out.

They steal them drive them around recklessly for a few hours, the crash into a light pole.

Its not professional criminals stealing these cars, its 13 year old kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbTrLyqL_nw

Same deal, my Hyundai was stolen 3 times from Sept 2021 to October 2022 when I finally sold it.

Was a huge headache.

UBlock Orgin works for most browsers, and has been the industry standard for some time. You can even deploy it as part of group policy in an organization: https://deployhappiness.com/deploying-ublock-origin-for-chro...
Gave it a test, and wow it's very impressive. A lot you can do with the free version also, hopefully this takes off.

The problem is it's not just kids using public cheats. There are private cheats that really damage the integrity of competitive gaming. Counter Strike Global Offensive is a good example of this.
100% agreed. In fact I would feel guilty about not adblocking by supporting these types of practices.

If a site is responsible I will add them to my white list. How do I know if a site is responsible If I'm blocking you might ask? Well you just know.

Primary issue I have with Lenovo systems is the swap of the FN key and the Ctrl key.

I know it can be changed in BIOS, I just hate the idea of breaking the standardized layout.

If you use a private tracker you will usually be fine.

This is really well done, is there an easy way to change mouse sensitivity?

I guess it depends how big your team is and how big the company is.

Working on a small team at my current company I don't have this issue at all. I remember when working at IBM that was my main gripe.

Funny you bring up skype, Microsoft is actually phasing it out (skype for business) and replacing it with MS Teams. https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft-teams-now-ready-rep...
No USB ports? How is that even workable?
The Major scale is Ionian (the first mode).

What do you mean order of change from Major scale, wouldn't it start from Ionian (I)?

The Modes should be in order,

Ionian - I

Dorian - ii

Phrygian - iii

Lydian - IV

Mixolydian - V

Aeolian - vi

Locrian - vii

Otherwise its a really useful tool, great job.

I fixed this issue by fully removing google drive and reinstalling it.

It seems like google released an early beta / alpha version accidentally.

Whats wrong with using Dreamhost for nameservers, does it make any difference at all?
Re:Is Running Good or Bad for Your Health? on Wednesday September 14, 2016 @11:52PM (#12503277)
I think as long as you don't have major health issues, or joint problems it's great for your health.

The down side is it is easy to get injured.
