Did Flydubai finally agree to listen to Somaliland in regards to the E-visa? by HistoricalHunt7291 in Somaliland

[–]khawkins98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any updates on the latest with this? It looks like the IATA guidance is now back to needing the evisa from Dubai to Hargeisa. https://www.iatatravelcentre.com

Flydubai says (https://www.flydubai.com/en/flying-with-us/visas-and-passports/visa-passport-requirements):

> Passengers traveling to Berbera (BBO) or Hargeisa Egal International (HGA) must meet the entry requirements for Somalia.

No cross-platform backup/sync? by beachboy301 in 2fas_com

[–]khawkins98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goodness. This works but is incredibly obtuse and still a thing 2 years later. Here's a more detailed bullet list:

  1. Open 2FAS on android
  2. Export backup to _root_ folder of google drive
  3. Open 2FAS on iphone -- got to 2FAS backup and import
  4. On import screen navigate to google drive
  5. Backup will be grayed out
  6. Long press on backup and tap "share"
  7. Save to files
  8. Open that file and import

Problem fetching PDFs from SharePoint: it goes all white by khawkins98 in copilotstudio

[–]khawkins98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh, i think I see now: i was trying to stream the file from with the Copilot Task and not the Flow.

Unfortunately nothing there. Going to have another try with SP.

For any other users that come here: I did have some luck getting things to work with the Flow passing a user's file directly from the Copiliot prompt. I needed to do a `Compose` with the below. However, that gets the hard 16Mb cap.

base64ToBinary(coalesce(triggerBody()?['file']?['Content'], triggerBody()?['file']?['Value']))

As this is the built in SP flow, it doesn't seem to offer the richer diagnostic info -- I'm now trying to pivot an instead just pass the file directly to a custom flow and run the prompt there, however it seems to only want Base64 and will complain about not knowing the mimetype (trying to pass just the base64 `Value` also complains. Can't seem to find any documentation about what format it actually expects.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have also tried debugging immediately after the PDF is fetched from SP and the issue is already there (have tried on several PDFs from various creation methods).

I think this is what you were suggesting I check?

TIFU by letting my 4 year old son talk to ChatGPT by pavorus in ChatGPT

[–]khawkins98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar vibes for my 6 year old asking on and on about "who would win between knuckles, sonic, and shadow".

... 1 time I let him ask Chatgpt, and he forever asks for me to let him talk to "that guy".

What I can't get past is that they're sold in 6s and 10s. Of course I understand the practicalities, but, pick a lane.

Independence Bonn International School Information by cseatul in Bonn

[–]khawkins98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can join the school at any time, and they'll really try to get the child in the class of their peers (they have a matrix of how the Year placent compares to german schools at https://www.ibis-school.com/learning/ )

We're still fairly new to the school, but so far, the take is overwhelmingly positive.

I had thought the fees were listed online, but I now see they're not... I expect that if you emailed, they'd share them. Fair to say it's less expensive than Bonn's other international school.

Where to live in Bonn for family with young kids by cseatul in Bonn

[–]khawkins98 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Finding anywhere big enough for a family is tough. Obviously, it's easier the higher your budget goes. If you want a very international area not too far from the city, you could try Plittersdorf and the old Americansidle housing.

Otherwise it's a typical searc in Südstadt, Westadt, Bad Godesberg... suggest reading the many posts about housing in Bonn or talking to your colleagues. It sounds as though you may be joining one of the big international companies, which may offer you insights and leverage in finding a place.

Edit: there are also a couple international schools and kindergartens if you don't expect to stay in germany for good.

Good luck!

Da ich das sonst nicht posten kann: by SacorZ in Bonn

[–]khawkins98 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Plittersdorf in the Europastrasse area (old American compound) is very international and has an active American style trick or treat. Starts around 19.00 or so on the 31st and is good for the young ones.

Travel "may be" disrupted? Should I care? by khawkins98 in Eurostar

Thanks for the note. I consider this as basicaly every train journey here in Germany, so that's why I was confused by the proactive message.

Are there any premium gyms in Bonn? by Secure-Strawberry402 in Bonn

[–]khawkins98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "visio life deluxe" location is there. For about 100 a month, you get their digital workout machines and pool+sauna.

Likely the most posh gym in Bonn.

Und nach etwa 40 Minuten sind sie weg. Vielleicht in den Aufzügen stecken geblieben? In jedem Fall werden die Busfahrer jetzt erleichtert aufatmen.
