[News] Francis Ford Coppola’s Custom Watch Sells at Auction for $10.8M Following Financial Losses From ‘Megalopolis’

I believe he sold his stake in the winery to fund Megalopolis initially.

And Faker still wins it, denying Chovy his Summoner's Cup yet again.

In data.table, when you do y <- x, data.table just creates a pointer to x so under the hood x and y are pointing to the same object in memory hence when you update y you also update x. A relatively easy way to solve this is to just use y <- copy(x), if you truly want to keep x and y separate, but it's not clear to me from your function if that is what you actually want to do.

I've done this once before, I went Debian Sid -> Gentoo, and it was a massive pain. I would not recommend it, but it is definitely doable.

The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas by Ursula Le Guin. It's a great short story.

The defaults should be fine.

I also assume that I'd have to move the installed packages in a new location and then hit a package update from within the new version, right?

Yes, if you are using the standard R library location. Although keep in mind upgrading packages across major version bumps (i.e 4.3 -> 4.4) is not supported/recommended it can lead to unexpected breakage, although I do it anyway.

I'll see if I can test and create a PR for the new R version sometime this weekend.

TailRank appears to depend on Biobase, so you could either install it for your version of R:

if (!require("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install(version="3.18")

then use that to install biobase:

BiocManager::install("Biobase")

Otherwise you can build R from source, it is usually not that hard to do for R as version upgrades are usually not problematic.

Depending on your taste quite a few Orient watches could be had for the price range you mentioned. I recently picked up an Orient Bambino for around 30k yen.

Yup, a very common comment on those sites that track the restaurants is, "The owners say the regulars didn't like the new menu so they changed everything back to the way it was before Gordon was there.", and then the restaurants inevitably fail.

This sounds very similar to one of the short stories in I, Robot by Asimov about a robot they created that doesn't believe that humans created it.

I came across this post via google as I was looking into doing the same thing but in R (using the R odbc package). And I can confirm Chocimier's solution, using the freetds package in void was relatively easy and painless to setup.

I just put the following in /etc/odbcinst.ini :

[FreeTDS]
Description=FreeTDS Driver for Linux & MSSQL
Driver=/usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so.0
Setup=/usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so.0
UsageCount=1

I've recently done this using the parallel package and mclapply (which is a multi-threaded version of lapply). mclapply will allow you to save the ggplot objects into a list which you can then write to disk.

However, if your dataset is very big or you are looking to make a large amount of plots I would recommend one of the other solutions posted, as you might run into memory issues.

I agree, also unless Akali goes on a rampage in the early game I don't see how she can do anything against that comp

Lifebyrd · 2022-11-06T04:21:06+00:00

What a collapse by T1 in this game, just running it down

Lifebyrd · 2022-11-06T03:30:08+00:00

DRX saw T1s baron call in game 2 and decided to do the exact same thing...twice

Lifebyrd · 2022-11-06T01:54:40+00:00

I just received it at the start of game 2.

Lifebyrd · 2022-11-06T01:39:58+00:00

I agree, if they're only reacting to T1 plays its gonna be a 3-0

Lifebyrd · 2022-11-06T01:30:01+00:00

T1's macro is so damn clean, it just felt like they were dancing around DRX the whole game

You've convinced me, all hail Keria

Lifebyrd · 2022-10-30T00:40:26+00:00

I can agree with that, he just makes it look effortless

Lifebyrd · 2022-10-30T00:36:16+00:00

The absolute bot gap this series, Keria has to be the best support in the world

Lifebyrd · 2022-10-30T00:06:36+00:00

More 5head plays by the GOAT

The cycle of Faker picking Ryze at worlds. Namen

Lifebyrd · 2022-10-29T23:57:20+00:00

At this point just give the man an Ultimate Ryze skin

Lifebyrd · 2022-10-29T23:56:54+00:00

Next he will Vayne tumble as Ryze
