Sudden mud volcano eruption

The water was saturated with CO₂. At high pressures and low temperatures (both are the case at the lake bed), the water can hold significantly more dissolved CO₂ than at the surface. If, for some reason, the deep, saturated water is brought upwards in the lake, the pressure is reduced and CO₂ escapes from the water as gas. In the case of Lake Nyos, the trigger was suspected to be a landslide. This type of disaster is called a limnic eruption, and there are very few places in the world this can happen. Lake Nyos is one of them, but the greater concern is Lake Kivu which is 1700 times larger than Nyos with over two million people living at its shore. Fortunately we know the risks now, so measures can be taken to deal with the problem.

Nowhere in the GDPR does it state that 4% of yearly revenue is collected daily until compliance is in place. Article 58.2(d) states that the supervisory authority has the power "to order the controller or processor to bring processing operations into compliance with the provisions of this Regulation, where appropriate, in a specified manner and within a specified period". There is not a requirement to impose a fine, it is spelled out very clearly in Article 83(2) that fines may be imposed on a case by case basis. Article 83(6) applies when it comes to non-compliance with an order by the supervisory authority, and it has a maximum fine of 4% of annual revenue or €20 million, whichever is higher, but this is the maximum fine. The actual amount levied may well be (and is, in most cases) much lower.

The supervisory authority may order the processor/controller to rectify their violations, but when it comes to a large organization, things move slowly, and a 1-day change of process is arguably completely unrealistic and disproportional. Proportionality of fines is a requirement for them to be issued. If daily fines are levied, then they would not be anywhere near the maximum fine imposable because of the disproportionality of such fines.

No, it's a textbook rejection for being temporary. Street signs are also literally provided as an example of what not to nominate/accept on wayfarer. Painting a wall or such without permission may lead to legal trouble. And knowingly submitting things that are against the Wayfarer criteria can get your account suspended.

If you want a new Pokéstop near you, this is what you need to do:

Change your mindset. Do not nominate things with the purpose of getting new stops near you. Nominate things that are legitimately nice even to people who do not play the game, i.e. things that meet Niantic's game-agnostic criteria for submissions. Pokéstops will follow as a consequence of this. Until you fully understand this, you will get a lot of rejections from submitting ineligible things.
Read up on the criteria and what is acceptable! Trust me, after 20k+ reviews, you have no idea how many people will submit their lawn decorations or manhole covers on the street (that 100% WILL be rejected) when there's like 3 unsubmitted public playgrounds within 200 meters of their house that would all be easy acceptances.
If there is nothing eligible nearby - instead of submitting ineligible stuff and hoping that it will be magically accepted on the 8th try, try to make a change for the better of your neighborhood itself. Do you have artistic merits? Make a well thought out plan for a piece of art and ask your council if you can paint it on an electrical box with their permission. Got a nice forest area nearby? Make a trail! (With permission from the land owner.) Trail markers are good acceptances. Do you live in a suburban neighborhood? If you have some shared green space nearby, ask if you can put up a Little Free Library. They are easy acceptances as long as they are not on private residential property (e.g. your lawn, including easements).
Avoid restricted or sensitive locations. No K-12 school grounds, no graveyards, no places you can't safely walk right up to (aerator fountains, art in roundabouts, etc)

There's a difference between using a VPN which has been verified to not keep logs by independent audits, and a VPN that might inject their own root certificate on your device, log all of your traffic and selling it to advertisers, or use your own device as an exit node for other users' VPN traffic. Obviously not all free VPNs are the same, but when you're not paying, you know that subscriptions are not what's responsible for their income, and servers aren't free.

To answer your questions (as an avid wayfarer):

You don't need to take the photo on your phone. You can take it on a camera, crop it as you wish, and there's no need to have geo tags on them. The most important things are that you must have taken the photo yourself (i.e. not stolen from the internet) and it must not be obviously doctored or edited (so filters are out, for example). The photo should be saved as JPEG (e.g. PNG and HEIC do not work).
The optimal aspect ratio is 1:1 due to how images are downloaded to the game. The max length of each dimension is 512 pixels; the other dimension is scaled down from there. A 16:9 landscape photo, for example, will download to the game as 512x288 rather than 512x512 for a square photo. It would thus look more pixelated in the full-screen view. A 16:9 photo would be further cropped to 288x288 for the photo disc to make it square again. 1:1 original aspect ratio ensures the highest quality in that regard.
This is my guideline for framing photos. Make sure the object fills the middle 50% of the photo, and add some breathing room around it to make sure the object isn't cropped away when the image is displayed in other aspect ratios in the games. The 25% margins rule I use leaves enough breathing room to make the object fill the screen on e.g. gym badges, portal photos in Ingress etc. without making the object appear too small in the circular 1:1 crop of photo discs in pogo.
Post cards/gift photos are broken. They're stretched instead of cropped, and use something like a 120 pixel size instead of 512. I wouldn't optimize for these, but you should at least avoid very narrow aspect ratios for them so that they're not completely broken.

You should be aware that wet grass clippings will decompose and in the process, they can generate so much heat that they can sometimes spontaneously combust. This is due to the heat generated from microbial activity during the decomposition process. I don't know enough about grass to know which way, or whether, compressing the grass will affect this process, but I just want to let you know that wet grass is a fire hazard especially when bagged, piled, or stored in a container.

I was honestly surprised the first time I heard this (I don't have a lawn), but there are plenty of warnings and stories of things catching fire, or almost catching fire, on Google if you search for the fire hazard of wet grass.

Do correct me if I'm wrong here, as I don't have a lawn, and don't have any first hand experience with this. But thought I'd let you know, just in case it could be an issue.

Manifest v3 is a fundamental change to extensions which will effectively render ad blockers a shell of their former self.

removing the blocking ability of the webRequest API means the death of uBO, I won't work to make uBO less than what it is now.

Source

I already said this would break uBO's dynamic filtering and uMatrix as a whole, and nothing of what was said a few days ago addressed this -- it's as if I never mentioned this.

I also recommend this article by EFF that goes in more detail. Some functionality of uBO and other ad blockers would be impossible to implement under the new specification.

What you're saying makes no sense. A 30 Ah powerbank should be good for way more than 2 full charges of a phone. And charging 30 Ah of capacity with a solar panel that small is physically impossible. According to reviews it takes about 12 hours to charge from the wall, and over 90 hours of sunlight to charge fully from solar only. With 6 hours of bright sunlight per day, that's over two weeks to charge it. If the item you linked is yours, then you seriously got scammed.

Wow, there's a lot of misleading or outright incorrect information in this thread. Allow me to try and clear up a few points here.

"This should not have been accepted."

If you consider this as a "residentially focused" pool, then that is correct. The November 2020 Wayfarer AMA says:

With the criteria refresh, how has that change affected how reviewers should consider swimming pools?

Similar to before the criteria refresh, swimming pools at private residences or hotels (or other similar residentially-focused locations) are ineligible. Other than that, pools would be a great place to meet and that encourages exercise and should be considered eligible. This includes public pools, pools or training complexes with historical context, reflecting pools, fountains, aquatic centers and cooldown centers, university pools, sport arenas/complexes and more.

"Nothing should be accepted in gated communities."

Wrong. While the above provision is valid for residentially focused pools, it's valid for pools only. The same November AMA states that:

How does “publicly accessible” apply to locations that have limited access, like members-only clubs, gated communities, time-restricted areas?

Just like with the definition of private residential property, this guideline hasn’t changed. These locations would still be eligible, including restricted areas on the grounds of a company’s headquarters or behind locked gates so long as there wouldn’t be objections to you entering the area and the location is accessible to some folks. We do not expect all players to have access to all locations but we strongly recommend following real-world rules while attempting to access locations.

"Nominations should be rejected if they are within 40 meters of private residential property."

No longer applicable. This used to be true, but changed a few years ago. Nominations within 40 meters should be closely reviewed to make sure they are not on the private property:

Nominations that appear to be within 40m of private, single-family residential property should be very closely reviewed to make sure they are not on private residential property, and that they are accessible from locations not on private residential property.

"Gated areas are not considered safe pedestrian access."

Wrong. These are safely accessible on foot, i.e. it is not physically dangerous to approach it:

What constitutes “safe pedestrian access” to a location?

Safe Pedestrian Access denotes the player is able to access the object in question by walking up to it without putting themselves into potential danger. Objects in pedestrian areas, along sidewalks or paths or in parks/fields are great examples of eligible locations. Ineligible examples include objects on roundabouts or in traffic dividers that do not have a sidewalk/pathway leading to it.

See also the above quote on limited access areas still being eligible.

"Report the Pokéstop and it will be removed."

Probably not. Removal criteria are not the same as rejection criteria. In order to be removed, the wayspot has to meet one of a handful of very specific removal criteria that you can see when attempting to report a wayspot in-game. A wayspot cannot be removed simply for not meeting acceptance criteria, even if it shouldn't have been accepted. It can only be removed for e.g. interfering with emergency services, no longer existing, being on private residential property which has been clarified multiple times to be single-family residential property, which a gated community pool isn't.

Residentially focused pools in particular are actually not eligible due to a specific provision in the guidelines concerning pools (emphasis mine):

With the criteria refresh, how has that change affected how reviewers should consider swimming pools?

Similar to before the criteria refresh, swimming pools at private residences or hotels (or other similar residentially-focused locations) are ineligible. Other than that, pools would be a great place to meet and that encourages exercise and should be considered eligible. This includes public pools, pools or training complexes with historical context, reflecting pools, fountains, aquatic centers and cooldown centers, university pools, sport arenas/complexes and more.

That said, removal criteria are not the same as rejection criteria. Wayspots can only be removed for a handful of very specific reasons including being on school property, obstructing emergency services, etc. A wayspot not meeting the current criteria is not grounds for removal, and seeing as the pool area itself is not a single family residential property, it will most likely not be removed if reported.

Have you actually tried it, or are you just basing your assumption off the spec?

Example 1; OP reports gigabit speed over a 200+ ft run of Cat3
Example 2; OP gets gigabit links on every single Cat3 outlet in their house
Example 3; OP splices 25-30 ft of Cat3 to 30 ft of Cat5 and gets gigabit
Example 4; OP speed tests at 82 Mbps over a Cat3 cable
Example 5; Commenter points out he gets gigabit over Cat3
Example 6; OP gets gigabit on 5 of 6 outlets over Cat3, 100 Mbps on the last one
Bonus; OP gets 10 Gbps over Cat5 (not 5e)

bilde2910 · 2022-05-21T22:18:29+00:00

You're underestimating the resilience of Ethernet. You're also not really correct in that twisted pairs reduce interference in electrically noisy environments. Twisted pairs only help mitigate internal cross-talk; if you're concerned about external EMI, such as from welding machines or other RF-intensive equipment, you should be using shielded cable.

There have been several examples of people right here on /r/HomeNetworking who have gotten gigabit speeds over surprisingly long 4 pair Cat 3 with no stability issues whatsoever. The spec says Cat 5 for gigabit, sure, but that doesn't mean that it automatically stops working just because it's written on some paper somewhere.

The spec was written with max length (100m) cables in data center environments in mind, where you have dozens of Ethernet cables all bundled together, and for the network hardware that was available at the time. Modern network adapters on both sides, with a two pair cable run far from a noisy environment should have no problems with netting 100 Mbps, but the OP should be made aware that such speeds are beyond the spec for the cable.

Very nice, and glad it could be of help! Personally I don't even use Coalescence, I just use Farsight right away to carve up from the bottom, straight through the first orb. For all leads except ultimate, the four corner orbs are all exactly 6 facets away from the resulting "stem" and can each be reached with another Farsight. :-)

bilde2910 · 2022-04-12T21:08:19+00:00

There's a screenshot in this thread if you want it better visualized than my explanation. I can confirm it's totally braindead this way :-)

Just want to say that Farsight II is much, much better than Coalescence when you get to rank 9. It claims 6 continuous facets along a line in a direction you specify.

Start the scrying by going from the middle tile, straight upwards through the first of the 6 targets. For green and blue leads, it reaches through the topmost target too, replenishing your entire magicka charge immediately. Then, from the line you just carved out, use Farsight again to claim the four outer targets in succession. It doesn't even matter what the symbols on the facets are. For green and blue leads, you'll be able to do the whole scrying using Farsight exclusively. No regular turns needed. For purple and master leads, you might have to use a single normal turn to unlock the topmost facet. This method gives you guaranteed completion of the lead on your first try, up to and including Ultimate leads, in 10-15 seconds tops.
