That’s a lot of money.

I mean that’s about 12k pre tax to afford the 8.4k increase in costs. 18% of the median income in just increases, not total costs!

How are most people able to swing that if the median income is 66k ?

black and white only printers.

These statements are contradictory. I have heard of the limitation of printers deliberately refusing to reproduce colors that exactly match that of currency. Is that a hoax? If not, then there is no need for stego.

Over different years there were different methods implemented to stop counter-fitting. The color shifting is one of the methods I heard of.

it’s been decades since I was doing research on printing. The features can all be disabled, but you have to get a bunch of government approval and sign a whole lot of documents to get permission to shut it off. Even then I had to have the manufacturer do it.

I just did a quick google to see what was modern

I looks like the program is voluntary and under the direction of the Central Bank Counterfeit Deterrence Group. Disabling the countermeasures fall under laws about possessing equipment that can be used for counterfeiting EU 2014/62. It’s a criminal offense to posses equipment that can counterfeit banknotes.

My program advisor handled the government part of the paperwork.

It does, obviously. You have unintended noise in the printout.

Unless you are doing scientific analysis, it’s hard to find much less measure. You know it’s there, print a ‘blank’ page take a picture and upload an image of the dots.

Every manufactured color imaging device does this. It’s supported world wide as an anti currency counterfeiting effort.

Printers got good enough a long time ago that you could make realistic money from them. Modem printers also use programs to determine if currency is being printed and either not print or print it wrong.

Try printing a note euro . It either won’t or it will mess it up.

It doesn’t affect print quality.

Yes. It sounds like they removed anti cheat from linux for a spell and watched an uptick in cheater switching platforms. So they weren’t willing to support the anticheat, removed it from the game and watched cheaters flock to the platform. I don’t think they are saying linux users are cheaters, just that cheater will use linux if vulnerable.

Depends on the reason you are eating it. A baby spinach salad is the healthy way I like best it’s easy enough to eat a 1/2 to 1 pound at a time.

My favorite spinach dish is a Stouffer’s Spinach Soufflé. It’s the opposite of healthy. I used to cook it to a soft set and use it as a chip dip. It became my go to dip to replace artichoke dip

I haven’t seen that same willingness. China is willing to profit from Russia and wants a non-western aligned source of raw materials.

They seem to be giving just enough support to stop Russia from collapsing.

It’s possible for china to give Russia enough aid to basically cause Ukraine to capitulate. I just haven’t seen much to indicate anything near that support.

the price of oil is low and Russian refineries can’t refine and deliver vast amounts of oil due to attacks.

Though Russia has in the past found effective ways to get around what would have truly been crippling financial situations. They have been very resourceful in the past. It just gets harder and harder each time . They are just in a worse situation in all ways year on year.

This time they will get past it, but they are getting depleted. I just don’t see them ending the war until the choice is out their hands.

I mean is LAMF for the voters , but not for the political party. Federal spending is being slashed. Federal handouts are stopped and the ACA is ending without an inconvenient vote; all while making Epstein a long forgotten memory. This shutdown is exactly what the party wanted, they just wish it was permanent.

Hell yea! Gotta go big to get a real effect. Put the filters in rooms that are 1/2 or less the rates size .

I have Honeywell filters in each bedroom . So much less dust. the pre filters catch most of the dust and they can be cleaned and reused.

You got 2 sandwiches for $10 or just one?

It’s hard for a normal person to comprehend. He takes it because it can be taken.

In this case people understand money, so they think he wants more money. He wants to TAKE and that money exists so he should take it. He may not want it or have any plans for it. The sheer fact it can be taken is why he is taking it.

That is the true way of the .001%

If it can be taken it should be taken by them.

Want, need , enough, not enough are all more advanced thoughts . It’s only ‘Me Take’

A bit, but he’s quite a bit older and heavier at this point in his life. Looks closer to what he did 25 years ago.

Not unless he became Asian. You can click on the picture in the article to make it full screen. Not Woz.

By all means try a tooth pick and pure alcohol, if that doesn’t work a professional might get you set straight.

Repair shops can do a better job cleaning than a home option. I had a data and charge problem, bought a kit and tried 3x times; it didn’t work . Bought new cables just in case that was the issue. Brought it in for repair fully expecting to pay for a port repair. Repair shop did a through cleaning charged me $15 and sent me on my way with everything working.

Thanks kind stranger. That was nearly 20 years ago for me, but still neat.

It pads out the runtime, making theaters take longer to get the next showing in. That is the reason why everyone doesn’t get a credit. That said studios still seem to squeeze a few credits on screen that are not required.

The easiest way to prove this is to see who on a film DOESN’T get a credit. It’s going to be non-union positions to go uncredited. For as many credits as you see there are hundreds of unlisted ones. Just about anytime you see a company credited for vfx and you see only 10 names, an easy 20 were left off.

It cost money to add credits to a movie. Studios don’t do much more than they have to.

I got a credit once. It was cool and made my mom happy.
