I’ve had an issue with it before in my work MacBook. It would just keep causing the system to hang, making the computer unusable. Had to get IT to remove it.
The Phillips bulbs I bought have a ridiculously high failure rate. About half have failed within 6 months. Much worse than the supermarket own brands, or cheaper ones from Amazon.
Meanwhile I replaced around 40 halogen bulbs with Philips branded bulbs around 5 years ago, and have not had a single failure.
It's possible the quality has changed, but i'm also wondering whether the mains voltage might be a factor - there is quite a wide range of possible voltages allowed whilst still being in-spec, so maybe i'm lucky at my properties and mains voltage is on the low end of the standard and maybe you're running hot. It's all most frustrating!
BTW, I went with Philips on the basis that there was a good chance that if I did need to replace a few after a year or two due to failures i'd be likely to be able to source the same bulb, as it's really annoying if you find one bulb a different colour than the others...
The Philips Hue bulbs somehow never burn out. I have about 30 of them in my house, and the oldest ones (5+ years old now) are working as well as the new ones that I have bought recently. They are the only "smart" thing that I have in my house, because they're the only thing I've ever hooked up that worked with 100% reliability. They don't require an internet connection, etc. I never have connection problems, never have to reboot the hub, the switches work for me 100% of the time.
I’d never used a case until I got the iPhone 8 and had to buy one because of how slippery it is! Unless you put it on a perfectly flat surface it will just slide off on to the floor.
You’re able to create custom apps for businesses where you can distribute to selected businesses, although you still need to go through the App Store approval process. You can also require a login to your app to restrict who can use it.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think there are any cases of people with brain injuries speaking languages they couldn’t speak before. And any foreign accent is a case of someone’s speech becoming distorted and coincidentally sounding similar to another accent.
The reason the LinkedIn app is so big is the number of frameworks they use. 87 frameworks accounting for 248MB of the 277. The swift runtime takes up about 20MB, and something called VoyagerFeed takes up over 190. All the images actually only make up about 12MB. There's also about 0.5MB for each localisation.
"LinkedIn’s new flagship app, nicknamed “Voyager,” is a complete architectural and design overhaul available for iOS and Android, as well as an online mobile experience, in the coming weeks." https://thenextweb.com/apps/2015/10/14/linkedin-voyager/
Sounds like "VoyagerFeed" may be part of their own codebase.
This is exactly what happens to me when the batteries around 10-20%. If I leave it for 10 minutes it will switch on again and the battery isn't drained, it usually switches off when I try to play music or use the map, but not just navigating the phone. I wonder if the battery does just need replacing though, but strange that I have only noticed this since installing iOS7.
Hyperventilating actually reduces the amount of CO2 in the body, a build up of CO2 is what creates the need to take a breath. (One of the few things I remember from scuba diving).
Thanks. That still kind of validates the impression I had that hyperventilating wasn't an irrational thing for him to be doing, but it's a very different thing.
The interesting thing is that Arthur C. Clarke was a very experienced scuba diver and still had a problem with the scene. Ah well.
It's one of my favorite action scenes in any science fiction film. The interesting thing is that the trick just relied on good photography, piano wire and dropping Keir Dullea. It's easy to imagine how a present-day director would mess that scene up with CGI effects, slow-motion, stuntmen, and so on.
