DoingIsLearning

So I feel like this upgrade was a bit of a bait and switch!

One of the most annoying features in other browsers is dynamic toolbars and now I am stuck with it on Firefox:

• I don't need the screen space

• I don't want stuff popping in and out everytime I scroll

• Paranoid me always wants to see the full url of the page I am lookin at.

Why would anybody want this feature?

I went through the support topics and this the only thing I could find:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1300082

Why can't I just set dynamictoolbar to false? Is there really no other solution until this is brought back as a feature , if it's brought back at all?

Are there other android browser alt

Hi UKPF!

I've read a lot and I've learned a lot from the sub, it's really great to see it grow!

This is probably more of a taxation/finance law question, rather than an investment one, pretty much what the title says: Is it possible to transfer shares from an EU portfolio held at an EU broker to a UK broker (share dealing account).

More detail: Investments wise (in the UK) I currently have, 1x ISA, and 2x high interest current accounts. As such up until now, I haven't used up any of my Capital gains allowance.

Outside the UK I hold ~10k treasury bonds (payed for by my mother as I grew up) and about ~5k worth of shares which I bought from teen savings (summer jobs) and I held long (~12 yr

Hi everyone on UKPR,

I have recently been made a job offer which I am really excited about and is very much the role I was looking for in Research.

However I had a few hairs curl up when I read the contract from the offer. In the appendix which expands on the Intellectual property aspects it reads:

"Except where otherwise provided for by law, <RandomCompany> shall own any intellectual property generated by you from the Effective Date of this Agreement, and while this Agreement is in force, together with any intellectual property rights (hereinafter “IPR”) arising there from.

This is the first research role contract I've seen written in this way (above quote) and it does seem

Full quote:

"There is something to be learned from a rainstorm. When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road. But doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet. When you are resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed, though you will still get the same soaking. This understanding extends to everything."

Pretty much the title...

Using a weak rpi1 with osmc. Happy with film and live tv stream but music is currently limited to the radio addon.

I wanted to use a famous swedish audio stream which I already used on my phone.

Spotlight seems too envolved for me and I am already using my phone as the remote w/ Kore and share youtube videos from the phone, so it seemed like a good idea to be able to stream audio from phone.

It doesn't necessarily have to be through AirPlay I was just looking to stream said Swedish audio streaming service from an android (kitkat) to the pi, and the easiest solution I could find was AirAudio but it requires root.

Are there any 'path of least

 

I guess this kind of rings true with the backup threads on the frontpage...  

Context: Broke the touchscreen on my phone (BQ Aquaris E4.5 , running stock KitKat). Every input is INOP expect power button and volume hard buttons. Manufacturer wants 80$ to change it. I bought a replacement for 15$ on ebay. I have done this on other phones before but looking at teardown videos online this one looks much more involved and I do have to gut the whole phone to a shell to be able to take the screen out. I don't have a proper EMC environment as such. So I wanted to back it up just in case. On top of this as a solid tin foil hat I have nothing synced to my google account as we

Hi everyone I come here humbled by my own stupidity. I was visiting family back home and get contacted to solve something quickly from work. The personal laptop I had was running 64bit win7. I was tight for time and had all my docs backed up so I just put a live usb in and wiped it to run debian jessie.

I come back home looking for my recovery CD. Only to realize it is actually from an older Toshiba not the one I just wiped. I then realise the recovery image was in a partition in the hard drive itself! :/

So i understand I can throw money at toshiba and they will ship a physical DVD image but is there any other way around this? (Other then surrender to win10...)

TLDR: wiped r

Has anyone found interview preparation resources specific to safety-critical design? In this case for medical applications?

I have an interview coming up and it's clear from their communication that they will make it technical within the scope of safety-critical. Not really sure what to prepare for questions wise??

I was curious to try something like an electric unicycle as a diy proj.

From other people's teardown's the use of 3 phase BLDC motors seems ubiquitous but I can't find anyone showing more detail on the motors themselves.

I am basically looking for weight and KiloWatt spec of the motors that are typically used in electric single wheel unicycles?

Just trying to wrap my head around transformation matrices.

Assume we have a moving frame x0y0z0. We represent a delta movement in a homogenous 4x4. [r,r,r,t r,r,r,t r,r,r,t 0,0,0,1]

Know assume we have an equivalent frame in a new scaled down x1y1z1 space.

We start with both frames registered to an equivalent start condition.

1. If we want to scale the delta motion to the new frame we multiply the old frame by a scaling factor 's' on the rotation component like this? [sr,sr,sr,t sr,sr,sr,t sr,sr,sr,t 0,0,0,1]

2. If we actually just wanted to scale the Position but not the Orientation could we multiply by 's' like so? [sr,r,r,t r,sr,r,t r,r,sr,t 0,0,0,1]

I am using fishing line to transmit force on a parallel cable robot. The max tension load the brade can withstand is 10Kg which is fine for this application.

I needed to accurately fix the length of the cables so knoting is a bit finnicky. What I m looking for is something like a mini mini wheel collet? Or any other similar clamp solution? any thoughts suggestions are very welcome!

The main thing is that i needed something with a small footprint and with no clamp slippage on a 0.3mm thread. Any thoughts?
