Yes, their databases are so rock-solid it is like getting blood from a stone if you need anything less than a business-critical patch (including fixes that have already been made on another platform) . This has been my experience on at least two separate occasions. I gave up waiting for a fix for a TCP-connect issue because they don't know how to handle EINTR during a 'connect'.

I know how to do an OS re-install and data restore, but can you tell me where you get the nukes?

Only if he's stupid. Who would put themselves in the middle of a road with cars driven by blind people?!

My laptop is rarely off AC power. When I had the charger set to stop charging at 100% (and to recharge when 90%), my battery life greatly improved. OId battery dropped 60% in reported capacity in less than 2 yrs; new battery is barely down 30% in the following 4 years.

I call it Chinese electron torture for your battery -- drip, drip, drip.

I don't know how OS X controls battery charging, but all OS's should provide an option to stop charging at 100%.

This is at the heart of my laptop battery experience. My laptop is rarely off AC power.

Not intentionally, anyway.

Except the law says "an unmanned vehicle or aircraft".

Since there is no single lens that can capture a 360-degree view, obviously they are using multiple cameras. When you composite the final video, the view of the arm is obviously replaced by the same area, but from a different camera.

Does it bother you also that the ends of some of the rotor blades are not attached?

As I recall the ... House is the ONLY part of government that has proposed and passed a budget

Because generally, it is the only one authorized to.

(Of course, the Senate can propose amendments to those bills.)

*cough*

You'll have that looked at, right?

a) did not disclose fully the extent of his patent dealings, referenced one more recent issue but failed to disclose the more serious prior issues

Which he was not required to, since it was more than 10 years prior, as per the (claimed) court instructions.

b) provided false, misleading evidence contrary to judges instructions to manipulate the jury

Something like this is the one that the appeal will most likely rest upon.

c) had prior conflict with subsidiary of Samsung

Which Samsung's lawyer's didn't enquire after?

A few possibilities:
1. It is possible that another app is using the PDFReader's secret key, etc. It would still have to have given permission to the app.
2. Someone else installed it on your iPad using their own App Store credentials, gave permission, then uninstalled the app.
3. Dropbox has some other API issue that allows files to be uploaded somehow...
4. Any combination of the above.

I guess you'll see if the mystery uploads cease when you revoke the Dropbox access PDFReader has.

So some iOS app is interacting with the Dropbox app in some way (either via API or just throwing files into a folder that Dropbox must have all permissions open on).

Most likely they're using Dropbox's iOS SDK. That would have required you to give permission however.

Check Dropbox's My Apps to see if any 3rd party apps have access.

Or just use xe.com. I have transferred money multiple times and never had an issue. You know exactly how much you'll pay and how much they'll get. Send it to the (US) recipient via ACH and they won't pay anything to get the money.
