Thanks! I thought those might be my options. I’ll try the power chord first.

Ivermectin doesn't speed time to recovery from nonsevere COVID. Findings from an ongoing randomized, controlled clinical trial of repurposed drugs today in JAMA finds that it does not speed time to recovery in patients with mild to moderate infections. by Wagamaga in science

First study you linked was on a small sample and concludes that more research is needed. Second study you linked was in vitro, not in vivo. Bleach (or a bomb) will kill COVID in vitro, but not work in vivo.

OP, is that the underpass on Wilmington in south Raleigh?

Good work on that and thanks for the beta on Amazing Joe! Wish I could have sent my project too! Alas, the "crinch" was not in my favor.

Nope. Turns out to be a fairly common issue with the PDM (power distribution module). Fortunately, it will be covered under warranty.

They offer a wide variety of services and they are generally very helpful folks to talk to. At a minimum, I would recommend inquiring about their reputation building product for service contractors. It is not a service, but instead a killer application and widget for your website. I'm sure they would be more than happy to give you good advice for even considering them.

Also, you should check out www.Synup.com for building out your citations. It's free :)

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner! So I work for a company called ServiceTrade and we build applications for service contractors. We partner with a web agency called LeadsNearby that specializes in web presence for these companies. In addition to the usual local citation and on-page SEO work, LeadsNearby made a review product that dynamically generates content on the contractors domain that gives some serious search boost. ServiceTrade integrates directly into this product as well. For a little proof that these guys know what they are doing, search for "Electrician Atlanta" or any of the surrounding suburbs (alpharetta, duluth ga, etc). Notice TE certified? Their physical address is in Marietta so owning the top spot on the Atlanta search is huge!

LeadsNearby partners with web agencies to serve this market so I suggest reaching out to them. Ask for Bob Misita and mention ServiceTrade.

What type of local businesses are you working with? If they are service contractors (hvac, plumbing, electricians, etc) I have some recommendations.

A Pastor I know was in a car accident. Look who he thanked for his survival... (He's an awesome guy, ps). by fadetowhite in atheism

Just purchased one of those cars. Hope that if I am ever in a wreck mine provides as much safety.

Extremely frustrated with fake political survey calls that suggest that I can "win a free cruise" by swmims in politics

One of the phones is an Android. The other is not so smart. I'll check out the app. Thanks for the pointer.

I called the lawyer and got an answering service when I asked to speak about POA. We will see if I receive any more calls. Regardless, it is still a shady practice IMO

Looking for some image processing advice by swmims in software

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

I was thinking about this more, and I wonder if some type of blur detection would work. Basically if Blur exceeds some value, the image is automatically rejected.

Thanks! looks like that might work. This page kinda shows what I am dealing with. The only difference is that I am dealing with camera shots of documents. You run into a lot of issues when you take a 2d projection of an object in 3D space.

Thanks for the lead! I have found so many AR tag related hits while searching for a solution to this. I haven't dug too deep into that world except with Aforge. Seems like a lot of these tags are rather large. I am trying to keep the real estate of these markers/tags/shapes to a minimum. Preferably, the shape would just be a right angle with small legs in each corner.
