An MTP


My old ford tourneo custom has a well placed phone holder. I use this and a MagSafe charger plugged into usb port on dash. Works great, I can use my phone, or anybody else can use the van and their phone, it’s really easy. Just looked and newer models have great big touch screen instead :(


I had to inform numerous companies of my mums death last year. A lot of them had either phone support with very long wait times or a postal address, no email. It took me less time to write a letter and post it than to wait on hold


Or even good woolen jumper can make a big difference. Something light so you don’t notice your wearing it but with good insulating properties and you retain a lot more of your own body heat than a cotton or synthetic top.


When another poster described a red star with sun spots I started forming a moving image in my mind of a sun with swirling in motion sun spots


Could this be the same tooltip issue I see everyday on Thunderbird? I must use Firefox differently but in Thunderbird I'm often left with a tooltip telling the date of the last message I was looking at after changing to a different app.


Yes. Should be fixed in thunderbird nightly (or daily, as they call it). Let me know if it works!


Used Comlink for a small toy project and made it really easy with very little change to move an expensive file merge off the main thread and do it in the background. Next time I use WebWorkers I'll probably use Comlink.

I tried importing at feedbin.com, 524 of 598 imported successfully. The failures being a mixture of not found or connection errors and a couple of invalid URL errors


I just resubmitted the list, I believe around 500+ there is an invalid XML tag, which is fixed now. So all of them should be valid now. Forgot to do xml escape for the URLs


I generally have my heating at 18, anything more I am opening windows or taking off my jumper. 20 degrees would be too hot for me, if I lived in an apartment that mandated 20 degress heating at all time I wouldn't be happy about it.


My apartment mandates 23C in most rooms, 25C in one. Also, once you hit 16C, you get rapidly growing mold everywhere due to increase in humidity compensating lower temperature.


I don't know what you apartment mandates, but the rest of the post is simply not true.

We keep our heat at 16°C during the day, 15°C at night. We don't have any mold issues.

Furthermore, humidity drops with temperature, as cooler air can't hold as much moisture as warm air.


It's a problem if humidity on the place is high and building is insulated crappier.

> humidity drops with temperature, as cooler air can't hold as much moisture as warm air.

This encourages mold


That can lead to water condensing on other surfaces which on the right surface can start mold growth. Wallpaper, exposed wood, stucco walls and some painted surfaces are all subject to this.


> We keep our heat at 16°C during the day, 15°C at night.

Why would you do this to yourself? I meaning living in such woeful conditions.


That is really cold, but the temperature I would keep an unused house at. If I tried to do that in our current place, my family would be extremely angry - we have it at 20 and even then I get complaints.


Your apartment mandates rooms stay at least 73.4 degrees F? 77 in another? I'd be wearing a tanktop indoors at all times. I'm having a very hard time believing this is true.


It's a common clause in rental agreements so that any mold problem can be blamed on the tenant because obviously they didn't heat their rooms to some ludicrous temperature while also opening the windows ten times a day.


Well my landlord was repeatedly explicitly pointing out these in the contract. I guess he doesn't want this luxurious apartment to degrade and lose value.


If it were my apartment, I just wouldn't do it. If the heating were centrally controlled, I'd open up the windows. 77F is simply way, way too hot inside, unless it's the summertime (and even then I'd be wearing shorts). That's insanely hot, and the idea of wasting all that energy to maintain a literal sauna inside your apartment is insane.


You got an apartment that was so badly designed wrt air flow that it needed 23C temp every second of every day?

Whoops


I'm building an integration that will use a long lived token once a month. In your experience will a long lived token expiry if not used for a month? How long do they remain valid until expiring from not being used?


About three months for long lived tokens in my experience. My recommendation would be to use them weekly.
