Yes! Combined with setting your connection as metered, the update process will become similar to Win7. My computer gives me a notification when it can't automatically download updates, I give it the go-ahead to download, and update on shutdown when I choose to. No timers or nag dialogs.
Nope! It doesn't even require installation, it's under a megabyte and it's developed by a reputable German software corp.
~~Not in my experience. I've had my setup going since the app came out with zero changes.~~ E3: Possibly! I just installed the latest major update and some of the settings had changed. Therefore it's good to check the tool after each major update.

I was working in tech startups five years ago and EVERYONE monitors that at that level of detail
There are entire businesses that just make analytics packages for that, one line of code and video scrubbing data is all yours

And then they trade that data to the service that said it wasn’t monitoring you

So, first, let's call this what it is. It's not a mimic as people keep suggesting. It's a rug of smothering.
Given that the text said all characters were caught in it, it's obviously modified and WAY more dangerous. Then assuming any character does break free, all the rest share damage dealt by that character with the rug 50/50 (split it how you will among the PC's). Add to that the 5-15 bludgeoning damage each turn inside the rug? I mean, the caster is dead for sure.

Here are the results of a study done by the NCP with a sample size of 2,500. Its results are in the table below:
Activity | Men | Women |
---|---|---|
Appropriate space finding speed | 64% | 92% |
Good or very good 'pre-parking pose' | 53% | 77% |
Reverse into space | 28% | 39% |
Forward into space | 72% | 61% |
Speed of manoeuvre | 16 secs | 21 secs |
Reposition shuffle | 29% | 56% |
Central finish | 25% | 53% |
Total co-efficient | 12.3 | 13.4 |
Because men are more impatient than women, 36% of them did not find a parking space in an ample amount of time, since they drove too quickly through the parking lots, consequently missing spaces. More women had a good or very good pre-parking pose than men did, and more women chose to back into parking spaces, which is the parking method preferred by driving instructors. Women did take, on average, 5 seconds longer to park than men. 56% of women chose to reposition their cars after they parked, while only 29% of men did. These are the only two categories where men scored higher than women. Women had the best final parking position. When all of these factors were weighted, women scored 13.4 points out of 20, while men scored 12.3 points out of 20. Women parked better than men in this study.

> The PRC's navy is decrepit, and they have no expeditionary capability - no operational aircraft carriers with which to project power. One American carrier strike group (of which there are have eleven) could crush The PRC navy.
You, like most, ignore the fact that while Phalanx CIWS, Metal Storm, and other similar systems can reliably take out Exocet-style missile attacks, there is no protection from ballistic missiles. Almost everyone pretends this isn't a factor. It is. Without the big, bad carrier groups, the US's "force projection" is essentially nil, a hedgehog armed to the teeth with nukes but no way to deploy beyond its borders.
And China is very good at ballistic missiles, so good that they showed extended video of the test-firing of a 14,000 km range ICBM with MIRV ability.
F-22s are nifty, but they're hardly undefeatable, and that's not even taking into account their painfully short range, something RAND did take into account in 2008 when their study concluded the F-22 would only play a minor role in any conflict with China; nearby bases would be rapidly shut down by medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBMs) and distant bases would rely upon vulnerable aerial refueling tankers.
That's not even getting into the problems we think we know about with China potentially crippling or back-dooring chips, much like the U.S. did to the Soviet Union.
The U.S. cannot afford to get into a war with China.

Well, while I can understand that, I would like to say that I'm specifically addressing native speakers that upvoted that comment (it wasn't meant for you at all, in other words).
I admittedly can't see the whole range and variety of people that drove it to the top, but I'd bet real money that the vast majority of them should have known better. According to this source, at least 62% of reddit's traffic comes from countries in which English is the primary language. I strongly doubt that the majority of those upvotes came from people that speak English as a second language -- there would have had to have been a majority of first-language-English-speakers driving it to that pinnacle. Even they should have enough Internet savvy to open up Google and look it up for themselves, to boot.
"Bereave" may not be a verb for daily use, but it's common enough that it's something most English-speaking adults should have been exposed to dozens of times before they left high school. "Bereavement Leave" is something that many working Americans have to take at some point in their life, for example (much like "Maternity Leave" and such), when a relative passes on.
The surprise all comes from that there was enough native speakers who apparently didn't know what it meant to drive that particular comment to the tippy-top. Again, this is NOT a particularly advanced or uncommon word, so ... it made me blink.
I took a glance through your comment history, by the way, u/idosc (forgive me, I was curious). I take it that you're Israeli? Here's your chance to bash on American education. ;-)

The literal definition of a Palindrome is "a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backward as forward, e.g."
"Nothing" spelled backwards needs to spell out exactly "Nothing" in order to be a palindrome, as opposed to "Gnihton".
The 2 word thing was kind of confusing, but what I meant was that Palindromes could also be full sentences, so saying "Nothing gnihton" is technically a palindrome, albiet a lazy one.
"Racecar" works because if you flip the letters around so it's backwards, it reads the word "racecaR" still.
Sorry, I'm dragging. The point is, the word Nothing spelled backwards isn't Nothing, therefore it's not a palindrome.

i am not trying to change words. however, it is a trait of languages in general that they evolve over time (for example, the word "awesome" used to mean something closer to the word terrible). likewise, the term gender wasn't used in reference to living creatures at all pre-1955. the word was first introduced into our nomenclature in its current usage by John Money, a psychologist that was a pioneer in the field of gender studies. it is a tad ironic that you use the term in attempts to discredit exactly what he was working to legitimize.

"A Tennessee woman jailed for more than a year after trying to use a coat hanger to abort her 24-week-old fetus pleaded guilty on Monday to one felony count in exchange for her immediate release from jail.
The woman, Anna Yocca, 32, sought medical care at a hospital after attempting the at-home abortion in September 2015, according to National Advocates for Pregnant Women, an advocacy group that helped with her defense. She was later arrested and was initially charged with attempted murder. Under an agreement reached with prosecutors, she pleaded guilty this week to attempted procurement of a miscarriage and was given credit for time served. and once said during the presidential campaign that women who have abortions should be punished.
“This case sends a dangerous message,” said Lynn M. Paltrow, executive director of National Advocates for Pregnant Women, who called the prosecution of Ms. Yocca “a misuse of the existing criminal law system.”

I'm not confusing the terms, because I'm not using "instantaneous" as it's used in calculus. I am literally using it to say the calculation computes the result in no time. Δt = 0 seconds. Despite my reluctance, I still used the word, because there aren't many words that can substitute in casual parlance.
http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/instantaneous
See? Not many options for synonyms.
Anyway, back to the topic.
> Viewing a continuous process as consisting of individual steps is precisely what is wrong with the original “paradox”.
Which means you're altering the description of the problem. The calculus solution is modeling a moving real world object by finding the limit at the destination point. A model is a simplified version of reality used for the purposes of making predictions and understanding properties of the object.
Yes, this problem cannot be solved by mathematically computing every incremental step, however there is another way to do the calculation and that's by using the object itself. The motion of the real object computes the destination time and position by arriving there. It's comparable to using an analog clock to compute time.
The object arrives at the destination in a finite amount of time by passing every point between the start and finish. When it arrives at the destination it will have computed the result by incrementally computing every step in a finite non-zero amount of time. Zeno's paradox says this can't happen, thus the paradox.
When you use calculus to solve the problem, you're solving the problem by using a continuous function, but the problem is not continuous. It's discrete.
Whether or not space, time, and motion are discrete is still unknown, but if they were, it would solve this problem.
And yes, I took the full gamut of university calculus courses.
Apparently most US accents pronounce "khaki" with a short 'a' ("cacky") rather than a long 'a' ("car key"). There are recorded clips of both pronunciations here.
"サンキュー" (sankyuu) is actually a common, informal way to say "thank you" in Japanese. Exactly as you might guess, it directly comes from the English "thank you."
More fun, because it is so common, it is understood as Japanese. Saying it with a native English speaker's accent ("thank you" vs "sahn kyu") will likely interrupt the flow of conversation and not be recognized immediately if the rest of the conversation was in Japanese.
There are a lot of foreign words used like this in Japanese, just like in English we have words like rendezvous (which is close but not the same as pronounced with a French accent, especially on the r sound, just like "sankyuu" is especially off on the th sound). Language is neat!

I just checked my state's MA handbook, it education assistance can only be counted in very certain cases and only if that income is used for non-educational stuff
here is what it is in my state's handbook
Money that is given to help with costs of education that is not excluded is counted as unearned income.
55 Pa. Code § 181.123(2) 55 Pa. Code § 181.262
The following fees and expenses can be deducted from total income:
Tuition.
Mandatory fees.
Books and expenses related to a student’s studies.
School housing and meal costs.
Child care and transportation costs if the student is not living in college housing and needs these to attend school.
to be eligible for Medical assistance your income would have to be under 133% of the fpig which is about 15k
so, unless you took that 40k and spent 25k or more on educational costs... you'd be eligible for medicaid.
hell man, what state do you live in... because I can promise that either the worker did it wrong, or you didn't use your available deductions
even then. if you deducted properly your income would be well below 40k. if you just halved your income(costs such as fees, costs and tuition) to 20k, your premium would be under 100$ for even the good plans.
I'm always dumbfounded that there are all these little intricacies to verb tenses that I couldn't explain to someone if my life depended on it, even as a native speaker of 30 years. It just happens, and most of the time it's correct, just because it sounds strange if it's different.
Not related to verb tenses, but there was something I read about adjective order being very consistent among English speakers, too, and I know for a fact I was never taught it. I'll edit if I find it again.

It's called variously the Swedish model or the Nordic model (not to be confused with the economic model of the same name), and it's really not as great for sex workers as it says on the label. The most obvious flaw is that the types of clients skews towards those who are already criminals, putting workers at greater risk.
It also has the effect of suppressing the market for sex work, starving workers of income. The practical effect of this is when you're trying to make rent, maybe you don't turn down the sketchy client you otherwise would.
It's been heavily covered by sex worker advocacy groups.

Thank you! I found it, I get it now, it's like Borat chosing Kazakhstan because nobody's heard of it, lol.
BTW some of our nicest minivans were produced there, and many more stuff. Many of our historical/fantasy movies were filmed in Riga, because it looks entirely old-European (old Hansa city-state); as for Jurmala, it was the poshest sea resort town with the best jazz clubs (where our most popular pop-jazz composer was based, and some singers), also because of that they held the pop song contests there.
Now, Latvia is a very popular place to emigrate / create a "landing pad" for opposition activists or businessmen; my favorite news outlet, Meduza, simply operates from Riga (after their kickass editor-in-chief was fired by her bosses, presumably under political pressure, and her whole editorial crew followed).

In short, it does not actually do anything, the pins usually just aren't aligned, but simply the act of taking it off the console, realigns them. Blowing in them gets the moisture from your breath on the pins, which causes them to age quicker :'( thus be rendered useless one day, sooner.

we are talking about roulette. but in english, when someone says they have a shot at something, such as a shot of winning in roulette, they are talking about their chances.
see definition 6: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/shot
x-to-x is a way, in gambling, to express odds or payout. but the inclusion of the word shot, without exception, means he is referring to odds.
For the most part, people are giving thier passwords in a public forum. Now I understand that with no context it's practically impossible to track down someone on here and find thier wifi hotspots or wireless router. But, because of the lack of context, it's highly likely that the passwords people are putting on this thread are actually real passwords. This provides a lot of insight into how we as humans use passwords behaviorally. All of the passwords I've seen posted are very easily crackable passwords. My point behind this is that when we have a false sense of security, we will provide any amount of information to anyone.
With all of that being said. Pick a handle, look at past comments, posts and replies. Google the handle. In less than an hour I'd be willing to say you'd be able to say what state or even town that someone lives in.
TL;DR Don't post passwords publicly, use strong passwords. https://howsecureismypassword.net
> He stated to consider the distinct terms k!+2, k!+3.
Yeah, up until k!+k - which makes it a range (or I suppose more accurately a set containing all the integers within a particular range). The way I said it is equivalent to the way he said it, but I think a little clearer since you're less likely to accidentally consider the terms k!+2, k!+3, etc. if they're greater than k! + k (as /u/rendleddit did).
> And I dont think it makes sense to say a range is empty.
We'll have to agree to disagree on that then. I think it's perfectly fine for a range to be empty. Funnily enough part of the stuff I've been doing at work lately has involved dealing with ranges and today I was demonstrating how ranges work to a colleague in Python, and Python seems happy with the concept of empty ranges. In fact, if you express what I said in Python code it works exactly as you'd expect it to. It might just be a matter of personal opinion, though - not entirely sure if there's any official word on whether "empty ranges" are considered valid or not.
Edit: Actually I'll settle at the condition "k >= 0" since k! is undefined for k < 0, and Python just conveniently pointed that out to me with a nice little error message when I tried k=-1.
This sounds like a shit ton of work for something that NordVPN does with its service. It can forceclose or pause (cant remember, been a minute) your torrent application whenever the VPN loses signal or disconnects for whatever reason.
A friend of mine uses "Private Internet Access" and he has never had any issues with the law. And he downloads a LOT of stuff. I don't know if that means it works, but I think it certainly keeps you much safer. And it's only like $3 monthly and fairly user friendly. If you are going to enter the pirate world, you CANNOT do so without protection. It is much too high a risk.
I'm referring to the book The Millionaire Next Door which is what a lot of the above comments are based on. I never said having a million in assets transfers into living the rich life. As I said above wealth does not mean high income or high consumption. Many other millionaires, like you claim to be, have very similar behaviors to you. They drive older cars, buy normal clothes and save/invest wisely. You insinuated on that guy's comment that the millionaires in his neighborhood probably don't own their homes still. I stated most likely they do.
Here's one of the books (though I don't know how old it is): http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Dead-Baby-Joke-Book/dp/1461150914 ......There were a bunch of dead baby joke books published in the 80s.

there are lots of different baits that click, rattle, etc in an effort to attract bait. Does it work? Some say yes, some say no. Greg Myerson certainly thinks they do.
That's more or less not possible. It is in the nature of the relationship, not the people.
So, while being careful about who you choose, be even more careful about how you let that relationship shape up. And be aware that no matter what you do, there will always be a tension, because the interests do not line up.
I have had two stepmothers and my father has been in several relationships, and I've seen this stuff unfold over a 30-year period since my parents started splitting up. And I'm not saying not to get a new partner - just be aware that your new partner's self-interest and your children's self-interests will diverge much more than the self-interests of biological parents and their children.
Also, Russian troops were manning anti air defenses. Cuba also played a small role in combat, as they did in multiple theatres.
Without these troops from China and Russia, and without these outside supplies, north Vietnam would have collapsed. They still almost did, post Tet.
A) "lose" can be used to mean "cause loss of" as well, in which case my use is acceptable. I think you are the one in need of some English lesson.
B) By your logic, all non-native speakers of English are Twilight fans?
I recommend reading the about section of the site, followed by the FAQ section, then. It's put together by a security guy looking to help people be more secure online.
Actually, a minute as in measure of time comes from "minute", as in a smaller portion of an hour. "Second" comes from "second minute" as in a minute (small) part of a minute (time). Source: Calculus made easy

Tact is never about intent of good relation. It is simply about not wanting the other to get upset. You are tactful if you want a good relation. You just had no tact to someone you didn’t care about. That doesn’t make you fulfil the definition, just means you are a bit of a dick.
I’m taking the second part to mean that you only offended me as I offended you. This is a really weird statement, as it confuses the impersonal (my post to large amounts of people) with the personal (you phrasing dissent in a mocking way deliberately for no other purpose but to belittle) and rates them as equal. You could argue that the impersonal offended you and hence you scaled up to then personal offence. Still makes you a dick.
Common decency you do have one of the definitions that I found, however the idiom itself is used (and found overwhelming in the sources online) to imply the courtesy, respect and politeness required in everyday conversation. Examples follow

None of these seem to match what you have said
If you were attempting wit, then you made a good turn of phrase but it does not make my statement void and still makes you seem like a dick

> I think you miscalculated something.
You are right, it is 25 years, 9 months, 15 days (9421 days).
I wouldn't count the end date, consider the case where a person dies the day after their birth. I would consider them to be one day old, but if you add a day then you get 2 days:
I think you miscalculated something.Technically it would be an even amount of days.
But I get it, you could abuse the characteristic, that the years and months of our calendar sometimes have odd amounts of days. I was wrong.
