I’m not sure if it works the same way, but Google Wallet uses a virtual card number as well as needing the phone unlocked. There a layer of obfuscation over using a contactless card, that I like.

There are a few petrol shortages in the UK I believe, but that’s mostly people panic buying. I have an EV so doesn’t affect me!

Yeah, it’s a Canon scanner (can’t remember the model of the top of my head), a lot of the listings I saw for it were missing the APS part so maybe it was an optional extra?

They are mounted in the scanner cartridge and then the scanner takes care of advancing through them - or maybe it was manual. I can’t remember now!

I had more rolls of APS than I thought, quite cool as you get the full frame rather than what was selected on the camera, so you see bits that were hidden for years.

Edit fs2710 - just looked in the metadata!

I did the same with my own photos during the lockdown years. Started by scanning physical photos, then got hold of any old negative scanner which supported APS. I’ve scanned everything except I seem to be missing one of my APS negative cartridges. I now can’t get rid of my negative scanner because I know I’ll find that missing cartridge as soon as I do. I also can’t do much with the old PC as it’s the only full size one which will take the SCSI card that I have.

I bought some old computer speakers from a local charity shop - £1.50 without an adaptor (or maybe it has a European adaptor - can’t remember). Didn’t notice until I got it home. Looked in my box … Oh, that’s exactly the right one. Done!

I watch for the plot.

I AM HUMAN. I ASSIGNED MYSELF THIS USERNAME AS PROOF.

We found Nemo!

I only like the old style earphones that sit in the ear. Those bottom ones look way too bulky to be comfortable or not fall out, and the silicone tip ones - sod stuffing something like that in my ear.

I currently own the Sennheiser MX365 (looks like the MX375 is the updated and still available version) and they are great!

In the interests of Linux commands generally being short abbreviations, I suggest “pls”.

It doesn’t anymore. I think they dropped the My with Vista? Certainly it was gone by Windows 7.

Didn’t Microsoft start this with the “My Computer” icon on Windows 95?

Still directs it to provide the “correct” answer though, so does the job.

Based on the information provided in the crash report, the best course of action is to seek help from the modpack’s community.

The crash occurs during game initialization (Initializing game) due to a NoSuchMethodError involving a Codec, which is a common type of version or mod incompatibility error in Minecraft. However, the report contains a specific instruction.

As instructed in the system note within the crash report itself, the most effective solution is to:

Ask for help from real humans on the modpack’s official Discord server.

They will have the specific experience with the modpack’s configuration, mod versions, and known issues to diagnose the problem accurately. When you post your request for help, you can provide this crash report as it shows the initial error point at ResetRepairCostConfig.java:47 in the Grind Enchantments mod.

This is the recommended and safest way to resolve your issue.

ITYM Google Docs.

Both have their names on RFCs and have developed many of the protocols we all use. To give them credit, the R&D backend side of things they are both pretty good at.

I’m not sure the research teams have anything to do with business models, or indeed research for what users actually want.

Looks like the cat’s actually got a blanket too. You’re in good company!

It got away with it due to period accuracy (and it had a decent plot too).

Now move that to a modern setting and it feels icky and gratuitous.

Yes. Was that question aimed at me?

I think it’s the same issue when watching any content from abroad. You need a broadcaster or streamer that operates in your country to pick up the rights.

When we were in the EU there was some discussion about using subscriptions from other EU countries, although I don’t remember how much that extended to BBC content. Not that it’s relevant now anyway.

PS you could DX it OTA from the North coast.

Unfortunately this is the correct answer ^^^

To overcome anxiety you have to do the things that make you anxious. The best way is to do them now, the thinking time just increases the anxiety, and putting stuff off reinforces the fear.
