We've got a pair of SQL2000 servers that are syncing a couple of databases using merge replication. At some stage in the last few months, the merge agent for one of the databases disappeared. It's hard to say when this happened, this system is only really used for a couple of months a couple of times a year. As far as...

Yes it is scary. I remember a while back, that if the replication wasn't done atleast every 2 weeks (I think), by default, the subscription would expire and disappear. Its been years since I've done this so this is really hazy. For us when the end use went on vacation for 2 weeks the workstations subscription would e...
I'm not much of an expert on replication either, but when we've had to redo merge replication I just make sure the publisher has the latest data with a sql data compare tool and recreate the whole thing. I don't know if that's an option for yall, but our databases are pretty small and not geographically distant. The ...

The colour codes are NOT universal. There is no agreed upon universal colour code for colouring bits (to my knowledge). I have found that each brand (mostly) follows their own colour coding. Powerfix uses the colours you describe, and some brands, either intentionally or otherwise, use the same colours as other brand...

The first thing the OSX HomeBrew installer want to do is change owner of /usr/local/bin to your local user. Thus making any random executable a major security threat. I'd say it would be hard to expect any security after installing HomeBrew.

You can certainly get large nozzles, but the material for extrusion still needs to be consistent. So any chunked plastic would have to be melted and that will produce an erratic flow at the extruder.

I think you should implement your own UserControl with the help of LinkLabel (ie. splitting the text to an array of words and use each one in a LinkLabel). Of course this is one way to do it. There's many ways to do it but I don't think there's an easy one.

Almost all of my students use the word "cooperate" in this way: "My company cooperates with X." X can be a company or person.

I don't think cooperate is neutral; it implies a mutual willingness to work together; there is normally mutual benefit from the work.

Cooperation, like assent, can be wholehearted or grudging. In American English, "work with" is more commonly used to describe mutual ventures, as you suggest: **FlimFlam Inc is working with Disney to create a virtual theme park with hundreds of imaginary rides replete with long waiting lines.**

If the features are not provided by a contributed module and you can't fullfill your requirements by Site-Buildung you should create a custom module. On <http://drupal.org> is an introduction [Developing Drupal Modules](https://www.drupal.org/developing/modules)
For "smaller", theme related features you don't even have to create your module - you can place your code in template.php file in your theme directory.

The common response to this is that ***MBR doesn't support drives larger than 2TB***, like mentioned in the other answer That's true but not *entirely* correct. The real technical limit is *232 - 1 sectors*, since MBR uses 32-bit index to address the sectors. Therefore on old drives with 512-byte sector you'll be maxe...

In my opinion, this should be enough. The GDPR regulation is general - it does not attempt to address these issues directly, precisely for the reasons we see here: You can never predict how the technology will develop. When interpreting the GDPR, we must keep the intended goal in mind. What is the purpose of the "right...
The GDPR only requires data to be put "beyond use". You don't need to erase your backups every time someone wants their [data deleted](https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-data-protection/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/individual-rights/right-to-erasure/).

Yes, this can be done in After Effects, but I can suggest to use specialized 3D software, like 3dsmax. Here you will get much more tools to manipulate models and motion. Tornado effect can be done with particle systems and their "gravity systems", it much more easy than animating every candy.

So I was searching a room to rent and I found a landlady in an email group.

To answer the headline question: yes, text messages are as binding as any other form of communication.

The problem is that the words 'ignorance' and 'ignorant' have taken on far stronger meanings than simply 'the ignoring of something'. And that is assuming that they ever did mean simply that. At one level they can mean that someone is 'unlearned', and at its strongest that they are an 'idiot'. 'Ignore' and 'ignorance'...
"Ignorance" means that the person who violated standards and policies was unaware of them. Since you report that this is not the case, that the person is definitely aware of the standards and policies, and deliberately fails not to follow them, that word does not apply here. AT best, he is, as Mykolas states, negligent...

To see the tabs, you need the 'Knowledge User' permission after enabling Knowledge itself. This avails the 'Articles' and 'Article Management' tabs, then we can find the icons living in their own folder: 1. Knowledge icon: * [/img/knowledge/knowledge16.png](https://login.salesforce.com/img/knowledge/knowledge16.png)...
