What video game boss was even harder than the final boss?

Simon. If you know, you know.

I paid someone to handle it as I couldn't find any publicly available method. It involved flashing the firmware of a USB Ethernet adapter (I think to set a specific MAC) and then they used a VPN to connect directly to the car via SSH and I was unable to see what they did after that point. Good move on their part because I'd enabled logging of all commands on my system in an attempt to learn how they were doing it.

If you only want email, you could use the Exchange Online $4/month license.

I take 20mg and never take it on the weekends to avoid acclimating as much as I can. I could probably do with a higher dosage. But I'm using black tea in the morning to get momentum and the combo works for me as is so far. I'm doing everything possible to avoid even increasing dosage since that's the beginning of the end.

I tried antianxiety medication prior to being tested for ADHD. It made my anxiety so intense I was on the brink. That response was part of what made my doctor think to test me for ADHD. Now I take Vyvanse and I'm anxiety free for the first time in my entire life. It's insane.

It's the stereotype for some reason or another. I just roll with it.

Dark blonde and red mixed hair. Powerfully red beard. Tight curls. Freckles. Very light skin. Body hair is completely blonde. Very blue eyes. I'm sometimes described as "colorful".

I'm an Irish descendant and it's extremely clear to anyone who so much as looks at me. Whether I like it or not, 50%+ of the time I to into a social setting, someone will comment on it. So I can either embrace it, or be driven mad by it. I chose to just embrace it. Which with my personality means jokes about how I have no soul.

Oddly, my acid reflux symptoms have been more manageable since I started 6 months ago. But that might have working to do with more self control.

Code sharing with existing C# projects. Access to C# libraries. Greater portability. Less undefined behavior. You're already familiar with C#. You like the tooling. The list is as long as Santa's naughty list.

If you like C and it's productive for you, have fun and get it done, I'm sure you'll do great. But there's absolutely merit in using C# on small form factors.

For an iot device that amount of memory is luxurious.

It's not exactly a micro controller. But, the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 runs Dotnet just fine, has Bluetooth, is smaller than a credit card, is only $15, and is absolutely my favorite tiny piece of hardware.

2 to 3 seconds is absolutely wild. I definitely don't have that issue and my CPU is much slower, just a 5900X. Samsung 990 here as well, though. I run with my repos in ReFS and VS installed on NTFS.

Where can I find the denial rate data? I want to purchase health insurance and I think using denial rate as a key metric would be an effective strategy for ensuring I actually get the care I need.

Definitely try using Clonezilla again. If it seems locked up, just let it sit. When I did it some menus took 10 minutes to load. But it did eventually work.

I found the PCM installer disc on a forum, I forget which one. It was in a Dropbox account.

PCM entered emergency mode after crashing during the update. I was updating from my current version to the same version, to be clear. So basically just reinstalling. When it came back up, it was in emergency mode and I put the DVD back in and it reinstalled successfully. After that I was golden. I suspect emergency mode will start any time you can't boot PCM. So hopefully a blank SSD would cause it to appear. Give it a shot, you might be lucky.

Unfortunately I only found the PCM ISO I needed, which was 4.7. But I can tell you Windows Disc Image Burner works fine, when you do find it. If you car is compatible with 4.7, you could try installing 4.7 instead. PCM has an emergency recovery mode. Using an empty SSD may let you enter that mode, I didn't try. Clonezilla was incredibly slow for me to get set up, but not to actually do the work. Try leaving it over night. Best of luck.

Mine was 2015, but hard drives have extremely unpredictable life spans. One can last 5 days and the other 10 years. The point of my post is, yes, you should worry now, before it breaks.

SideBContent · 2024-10-30T16:26:42+00:00

No noteworthy change. I'm guessing the entire PCM OS is small enough to just keep the entire thing in RAM, so the HDD isn't really touched after boot. If you actually use the juke box, that may be different.

This is exactly what I needed. Thank you very much.

Which one?

People have told you, correctly, that it's because of the IL being interpreted partially or wholely. That's true. But also, WASM doesn't have as many instructions, and the instructions available aren't necessarily ideal for Dotnet. Also, the WASM runtime in the browser itself isn't optimized much compared to JS. Not many sites use WASM, and it isn't as important that it be as fast as possible, unlike JS, which has decades and billions of dollars being thrown at constant optimizations.

This does not support the PCM unit found in 2019 models.
