FTFY: 1000 years.

From a certain accident rate upwards, it is. Anywhere.

So, basically, he had one accident per year. And he is not smart enough to understand that the universe is trying to tell him “Don’t drive a car, then!”

I can only import multipage PDFs in 1.3.2. Export produces a bunch of single-page PDF files. What version do you use?

I’ve got Inkscape 1.3.2 and so far I have not found to export it as one multipage PDF, only as a batch of numbered single-page PDFs.

I bought and installed gallery rails in the living room. We wanted to completely re-arrange alle the framed stuff there, and I didn’t want to turn the wall into swiss cheese. The hooks I’ve bought have been a bit beefy for some things I needed to hang, so I had to put a few of them to the grinder, but all in all this made the walls very neat, and easily to rearrange later.

Absolutely. And I think a proper “Export to PDF” in Inkscape is something that should be high on the list of “future features” in Inkscape. Editing the PDF in Inkscape is heaven, having to re-join the pages to one big PDF afterwards is (unnecessary) hell.

I’ve never used a VPN, and from numerous posts, many of them in my native, non-english language, it would be easy to derive that I’m not an American citizen. I’ve even stated that fact in a number of posts.

I still got an invitation. I reported it as spam.

The key question is: What kind of R&D? I’m afraid their key research is “how to squeeze more money out of our users”.

As in: “Every five seconds, a woman gives birth to a child in China. We have to find that woman and stop her!”

Do you have to break your fingers, too, to switch them off?

He said he has no idea how but they made him try anyways.

Uh, I’ve been present when such a thing happened. Not in the military, though. Guy should install driver on a telephone system, despite not being a software guy (he was the guy running the wires). Result: About as bad as expected. The company then sent two specialists on Saturday/Sunday to re-install everything.

My answer: “I don’t play Windows”.

One of the most common problems of government or other big organisation software is that they don’t scale, either “not well” or “not at all”.

Some guy hacks up a demo that looks nice and seems to do what customer wants, but then it turns out a) that it only allows for (number of open ports on one machine) users at the same time, and b) it only works if everything runs on one machine. Or worse, one core.

There are tools with which you can drive out the pins. They are only good for straight bands, not the tapered ones (unless you don’t care for the looks).

that it would have been huge fucking computer security news.

Nope. If someone found such a backdoor, it is more likely he/she sold it to the three letter agencies, who love hoarding vulnerabilities like that.

If I have to work on an American QUERTY keyboard, I have to look for each and every special character. Because our QWERTZ-keyboard has them in other places to make space for all the interesting characters an American keyboard simply fails to offer.

The problem is, whatever you say against any person that by accident is also jewish, you will be called “antisemite” for it. It is a natural defense reflex. Even if you have clear video evidence of the person e.g. raping and killing babies, you will be the evil antisemite.

Before browsers even existed, there already was the internet. We had social media (NNTP and IRQ), online multi-user games (MUD, et al.), browsing (Gopher) and file hosting (FTP).

I was introduced to the web and the Arena browser with the words “It’s just like Gopher, but with hypertext.”

Are people in the affected area more conservative than others, or just more stupid?
