Planetary for me.

In the UK there is a split between England and Wales and Scotland. "southern" UK trespass is a civil offence. Scotland it is criminal.

So in southern UK trespassers will most definitely not be prosecuted (the railway and power plant property are, iirc, the two exceptions because they have by-laws) but may be sued for damages, in Scotland they can be prosecuted.

Sorry to spoil the party but this comment was typed on Microsoft swift key 9.10.44.22, Huawei p20 pro, Voyager 2.17.1, emui 12.0.0

No bother with swipes (don't usually use them), backspace, predictive text - though word suggestions only appear when I stop the swipe.

Eta: Voyager is from Play Store.

Apart from having the flags the wrong way around, what's wrong?

You are right, it doesn't happen with any other O/S except iOS where you have to pay people/Apple to fix it (or reset the OS) or Windows where the stock response is "reinstall the O/S"

How valuable is the data on your laptop? Did you have it backed up? If so, stop worrying and just take the Windows approach. If not... Find someone local to you who is able to fix it (good luck with that...)

As for the rest - you come over as someone who expects someone else to fix your shit for free with no information other than "waaaa it's stopped working"

This may help How to as Smart Questions

Fwiw, based on your brief description of symptoms, I would say your boot device file system is broken somehow. To fix you need to mount it on another booted OS and fsck it (however if it mounts, copy valuable data off onto other media, then fsck it) . How to do that is left to your powers of Google. Not warranting my response in any way.

Best of luck.

First up - I know nothing about your specific problem. Let me add some pointers as to why you may be having difficulty...

You need to provide way more detail than a screenshot (which shows nothing really) and "why is it broken?"

What is the hardware, what is the boot device, what is the boot loader (and version), what does the boot loader config look like... There could be any number of things that stop the boot, including a corrupt boot file.

No one is able to diagnose your problem from the information you have provided.

If you are unwilling to grab a USB stick from a retailer, boot a different OS image and try some diags on your original file system you may well find people reluctant to help (for free...)

I use it on every phone handset at work... I guess it's the switch PoE not the pc mobo but the effect is the same. If you are talking pc mobo PoE I guess it could be handy if you had a PoE camera...

No one has seen Highlander 2 There can be only 1!

Yup. The curse of the 'fair to middling'... Too well off for social benefits too poor to be able to ignore money...

Au contraire...

They want to lose them so that the Starmfurher has to do unpopular things to counter all the seeds of disaster already sown, so that in 5 years time the Tories will be back in for the foreseeable future. You read it here first.

If it was an SSD... Its possible you have an SSD that claims to be say 256Gb but actually has a 32Gb chip inside (or smaller) that lies about how big it is and just wraps the writes so they complete... However the format is broken, as is the drive.

That's weird... It copied my post into my reply... Guess that's a feature!

Another Thread

 

Guys

Voyager native app on Android.

Anyone else got an issue when scrolling through a thread the rendering flicks all over the place?

It's random and I can't think of a way to screenshot it. It's like the replies get drawn in one position then jump to where they should be. Sometimes, if I catch it right, sliding up and down with my finger flashes the post/comment on and off...

Like I say, hard to describe properly.

 

Guys

Dunno if I am missing something, but I notice that many times a post is cross posted to many communities, resulting in the All feed being full (well not really full but you know what I mean) of what are, effectively, reposts...

Does voyager have a "hide posts with the same title in different communities" setting somewhere or is that a feature request?

 

Guys

We have an XYZ DaVinci 1.0 Pro, connected by USB to a Windows 10 PC (latest updates etc.)

The drivers are all correctly installed (both cameras show up in device manager, the printer shows up in device manager as both a printer and a USB-COM3 device).

The printer has Firmware 1.2.3 installed (as recommended by XYZ.... not sure if that's a good thing)

  • XYZ Printing does not detect the printer as online;
  • Cura does not detect the printer as online;
  • Pronterface does not detect the printer as online;
  • In a massive turn-up for the books.... Microsoft 3d Builder does see the printer on line and will start a print.

In device manager the com port seems to be set at 9600,8,n,1. Changing this to (say) 115200 breaks printing in 3d Builder. Changing Pronterface to use 9600 baud makes no difference to connecting to the printer.

I have changed the USB lead, tried different ports on the PC yadda yadda yadda but no change at all - only Microsoft 3d Builder will see the printer online and print.

Anyone got any idea at all why everything except Microsoft 3d Builder can't see the printer?
