If someone uses wine, would you be so kind to post here for what programs? Wine would be interesting for Photoshop due to the GIMP CMYK problems. I run Photoshop on Wine many years ago. I just needed it recently and did not get it to work.

I was told publishers dont promote a good book anymore these days. They ask how many instagram followers do you have? Maybe the self-publishing and BoD will decline in the long term due to ML white noise and publishers are a sign of quality

Agreed. A plain number as an answer could give you zero points. It is always UNITS UNITS UNITS. 10 what? Kg? Apples? kW? I remember actually a chemistry test where I did not use units in an important calculation but only in the answer. If I

I will re-post later. Please understand that I am still very confused and that I want to keep many things private. And while I understand your curiosity, this is not an AMA. No, not China. I was imprisoned in a western EU country. The thing

Well, we all know these houses a in bad shape and require a major investment but I don't think this is a problem. Fact is, you will create a tax liability there since most of this programs don't only require you to renovate the ho

"Thanks Google. Think I’ll be buying this." Well I wont. I will look for an accumulator replacement for my Pixel one. 700 USD every few years? Quite a bit of money. Screensize? We had a joke in our (European) high school to tease

Not long. Lets assume we lose the ability to manufacture modern IT equipment. How long do we have? Estimated live expectancy of HDD, SDD and tapes? Most digital data would be lost within 10-20 years. Maybe sooner. We could at least try to p

Exactly. And I doubt that this device is used in any lab, except in a clinical lab setting. I have seen it in clinical trials. Focus on the word "arterial blood", this gives you an idea. :-)

I find some of the this vague in this announcement. Non invasive BGM is the "holy grail" in this field. Tons of companies have failed after big investments. Some scammers are out there they claim since decades they solved the prob
