I bought the voucher last March and kept putting off taking the actual exam. I don't like exams as a general rule, and I like them less if I don't really know what to expect.
Resume candy for the next three years. Yay.
It seems that as Reddit drives their user base away (who wants to hang around a place where if you sneeze wrong you're shadow-banned, and if you look at someone cross-eyed, you're banned from half the site?), they look for other places to go. Some go to Voat or some other up-and-coming social media site, some come here.
I'm not going to try to defend how people think. I will simply state that it's what happens when people are lead to believe that their thoughts are more important than anyone else's, and they are not taught to respect others even when disagreements are in play. This is glaringly evident no matter where people are on the political spectrum.
I finally gathered the nerve to try to boot up my Apple IIgs for the first time in about 12 years.
A few of the connectors on the system are corroded, but not horribly so. This is not really surprising, as it has spent a large part of the last 12 years in a musty cellar.
The only part missing right now is the keyboard itself. It got misplaced during a move, but I'm pretty sure where it is. (I've actually got its location narrowed down to two or three places.)
Well, I was surprised with another gift: an Amazon Echo Dot.
I was able to get it configured and working in only a few minutes. Ironically, I was able to tie it in to the Kindle with no problem at all.
Thanks!
Also, regarding "Transparent": I'm inclined to agree. There are a ton of other false implications that we could prolly list here, too.
It is connected to the WiFi, evidenced by the fact that I was able to attempt to download and install the Alexa App. (It simply made like it was going to download it then realized that it was already there and presented me with an "Open" button.)
The Alexa App appears to be installed, so I'm really not sure what's going on here.
I was given a Kindle Fire 8HD for my birthday. It's a beautiful device. I love it.
That's the Good news.
The "bad news" is that it's supposed to come with Alexa, which I cannot get to work. At all.
The device is a Kindle Fire 8HD (7th Gen) running FireOS 5.4.0.0.
I've tried several things to get it to work, but it's just not going there.
"To people who troll on the Internet for fun, consider your words and actions conveyed in your message and who it might upset or anger," he wrote. "Put yourself in their shoes before you post it. If you have a problem with trolling it is an addiction just like any other addiction someone can have to something and don't be embarrassed to ask for help. Trolling is nothing more than bullying a wide audience. Don't feed your own self-worth based upon inflicting suffering upon others online just because you are behind a keyboard."
So... It's okay for the Mainstream Media bullies people, but it's not okay for people to bully the Mainstream Media.
Got it.
I guess CNN has their panties in a knot because FoxNews is more reliable than they are. (That's saying something.)
Thanks for your suggestion. I'll add it to my list of possible devices.
When I've bought watches in the past, I had a tendency to wear mine 24/7. I'm expecting that this would not be possible with any Smart Watch. If I'm lucky, I'll find something that is perhaps "Water Resistant", so I'm not wasting a device if I jump in the shower and forget to take it off until the water hits.
As for the GPS and SIM card slot... I'm not sure I'd want that on my wrist, to be honest. If I needed that, I'd expect to pair it to my phone.
I'm open to any assistance, and this certainly fits the bill.
Certainly much-appreciated. Thank you.
My watch has bought the proverbial farm. Usually this means that the strap has broken in a way that makes it difficult (if not impossible) to repair. In this case, the strap was part of the body and it tore straight through.
Do not feel bad for my watch, as it has served me well for several years. Considering how things are made these days, I see this as a Good Thing. It is not unusual for me to replace my watch every three to five years.
I agree with the XKCD reference. The thing most people seem to forget is that the knife cuts both ways.
Too bad slackware is pretty much dying. More than 2 years without a release isn't a good sign.
Looks like you spoke too soon. They just released Slackware 14.2 (using the 4.4.14 kernel) just a few days ago.
