Only if you have stored files locally and select “also delete local data” when deleting the app. You can check this in the Files app or by connecting the device to a computer and browsing the books storage section.

Anything backed by icloud storage (and of course anything purchased from the store) can be redownloaded later.

As a compromise, you can “offload” the app until you’re ready to use it again from the apps section of settings. This has the side effect of retaining existing data while uninstalling the app itself.

Not trying to butter you up, but if I could speak for him I would say you may surprise yourself by the end.

I suspect that exercising good will in the face of endlessly variable forms of human selfishness is in many ways like learning to run marathons. Until you’ve run that distance, it seems like a superhuman effort, but in hindsight you can’t imagine enjoying anything more. You do it because you like it. It becomes its own reward.

I’m just saying I think you’re capable of a more of the good fight than you might give yourself credit for, and we all need to be reminded of this from time to time.

Voyager calls them “tags.”

Right, I figured they meant in order to make room. There’s too much cluttering 2.4 — zigbee, zwave, bluetooth, IO peripherals, microwave ovens, cordless handsets, walkies, and more. WRT general WiFi traffic, in dense residential settings 2.4 is often only used for initial client device handshake.

Ah a fellow haberdasher #tips-lady-fedora

On this type of latch (mortise) the third screw is often stripped (because it’s a set screw that holds the lock cylinder in place and often the notch in the cylinder is misaligned / on the wrong side) but _un_screwing it should be easy.

The cylinder itself, however, is usually finely threaded and can require a fair amount of torque to get started, especially without using the key for additional purchase.

Yes! What the Dems have been is history. What voters make it is the future. That’s what primaries are for. So imagine what you want them to stand for and vote for the candidates that fit that vision.

Everyone should vote in their primaries, even if they can’t make the general. Your vote is higher impact there than in the general election for a few reasons:

1. The folks who usually vote in the primaries, bless ‘em, are not good at picking winners
2. Participation tends to be so low that it doesn’t take many additional votes to elect progressives
3. Progressives are MAGA kryptonite; people will actually show up for them in the general.

Also voting in primaries is easier, since early voting can often be completed digitally or by mail. You don’t have to take off work. And if you vote in person, you don’t have to be registered beforehand. Just show up to your polling center and they’ll have you fill out a special affidavit ballot that’s submitted in an envelope with your registration info.

Vote in your primaries people.

First off, it’s OK. We all make mistakes and misrepresent our feelings sometimes, which can affect others in ways we don’t intend. The particular social accident you describe is also quite common. I promise she will quickly recover from the inadvertent rejection.

My answer is: practice. 8-9 years is a long time to be out of practice at anything of this sort.

There are a variety of ways to actively pursue that practice, some more creative than others, but the most natural way is simply to invite interaction with others in general such as, apparently, drawing on a bench at the park :)

Is “trolly” pronounced like troll-ee or like trolley? Because I do have some trolley opinions.

I’ve been checking out the localhost tracking vulnerability and there’s something I can’t work out: it’s not even a terribly obscure or convoluted exploit, especially Yandex’s implementation that’s been chugging for more than 8 years over basic HTTP. It’s just a glaring sandboxing workaround that’s been exclusive to this OS for more than a decade.

No matter how many ways I look at it, I haven’t come up with a reasonable explanation for how it was ignored, by demonstrably capable engineers, unless Google itself had use for it in the first place. And that fits a pattern of selective competence in information security that they just can’t seem to quit.

In short it’s the data collection backdoors they leave themselves that defeat the otherwise top-tier security of their consumer offerings, and it’s why I’ll probably never trust anything they’ve touched until I’ve taken it apart and put it back together again.

So no, you probably shouldn’t use it. Trusting the privacy or security claims of any adtech company will always be a mistake.

The turnout Saturday was encouraging, at least, though I haven’t yet seen the over-under on flippable seats that will be up for reelection.

Important caveats:

Best of luck.

Oh, and in case you’re looking for recommendations, my current daily driver is Blair’s “Ultra Death.”

To set expectations, Tobasco (a common North American vinegar-based chili sauce) has a heat rating of 7,000 scovilles, whereas Ultra Death generally measures over 1 million.

If you like heat, extracts are a cost-effective step up, since each bottle lasts longer. At first anyway.

IME this sort of error is often related to the aggregation of traffic through a single IP address. (Commonly: VPNs, public WiFi hotspots, large commercial networks, and so forth.)

The safest workaround is to temporarily change your server location (if using a VPN, which is advisable).

Another easy solution is a different connection, such as switching to mobile data (less safe due to ISP fingerprinting).

Also, since this error is often generated by simple time-based access quotas (throttling), you can confirm the root cause by refreshing once the next hour or day ticks over. (If due to throttling, the error will suddenly disappear.)

Great idea! Many of them offer a nice color palette too. I’ll try it.

Lol you’re not alone. I think someone commented something similar last night. And you’d have plausible deniability too, since the blue is “accidentally” allowed to show between the white and red stripes.

Focus on maximizing empty horizontal surface space.

ETA: tldr — “picking up,” interpreted literally, is an endlessly useful principle of housekeeping.

Most of the gastrointestinal distress from capsaicin is the result of poison countermeasures triggered by contact pain signals.

But capsaicin is telling your cells a lie which fewer believe each re-telling, so it requires increasingly ridiculous doses to trigger those internal signals.

If you eat spicy food regularly, you likely won’t get any internal signals again until you graduate to a different category of spiciness, such as extracts.

Hot sauce nerds consider extracts cheating, since you can achieve heat that’s many orders of magnitude above what the hottest pepper hybrids can produce, but do what you must to feel alive.
