![]() ![]() John and everyone, re: which version of what is installed. Yes, alandb, just to be sure, I reformatted the micro SD card one more time in Windows Explorer, definitely to FAT32. So based on the comments above, I checked and tried a bunch more things. Yeah /heh/ pwo, you may be right about him wanting "helpers' even less than Covid. Others have successfully updated this GPS to the latest maps. I figure I'm much better off asking for help here. Garmin Express is not offering me *any* options, other than contacting Customer Support. Oh incidentally, John, what is the built-in memory on your Nuvi? My GPS seems to have under 4GB of built-in memory, and the latest North American map updates are reportedly close to double that, even though last fall's map updates were under it.Īlso I don't get the opportunity I see in Garmin customer support to choose a smaller regional (not national) map update on my GPS. Windows doesn't give me the opportunity to format the micro SD card in the GPS, so I took it out, inserted it in a card reader connected to the PC, formatted it to FAT32 right-clicking the card in Windows Explorer, rebooted both the PC and the GPS, and Garmin Express still doesn't offer me the opportunity to use the card, though it still recognizes that the empty 32GB micro SD card is in the GPS Win 10 also still sees it. Still I thought your suggestion was a good idea I might have missed and followed up on it, but it didn't resolve my issue. They seem to come preformatted from the factory. We used to have to format new flash cards before using them, but lately it hasn't been necessary before using them in computers, cameras, etc. Automatic watch sale8/29/2023 ![]() Rotate North also has a more serious 500m diver watch complete with a helium valve. The new Seal Black edition comes with those rubber straps or a stealthy NATO strap. Some brands selling at 10 times the price have not been as inventive. Plus, the sustainably sourced vegan rubber straps arrive with half-punched holes, so you simply pick the notch that fits your wrist and leave the rest unbroken. The Seiko shock-proof movement supplies 41 hours of power reserve, and the piece is good for depths down to 300 meters (just shy of 1,000 feet). Rotate North CEO Damien Cranney says that the reason he set up this Irish adventure watch brand in 2019 was “to develop a range of elegantly designed tool watches at an affordable price that were fit for purpose.” Having tried the German-engineered Atlantic diver, we can attest to its quality, with a solid screw-down crown (a feature that helps enormously with water resistance), toothed bezel, hardened mineral crystal (more expensive and more scratch-resistant than plastic or acrylic), and glow-in-the-dark Super-LumiNova hands and hour markers.

We explain more about types of watches at the end of this article. Hand-wound watches can't do this, you have to remember to wind them at regular intervals. ![]() How long it keeps going after you stop wearing it is called the power reserve (similar to when your phone is left on standby). This means if you wear the watch regularly you never have to wind. An automatic watch, confusingly also known as a "self-winding" watch, is a mechanical watch where the natural motion of the wearer-you-moving their arm about (picking up a coffee, waving hello, or just walking around) provides all the energy needed to wind the mainspring (this is the watch's power source, a spiral torsion spring, but think of it like your phone's battery). Proper automatic movements, you say? What are those? Good question. What Is a Fully Automatic, Self-Winding Watch? Find duplicate pictures google photos8/29/2023 ![]() – Re-enable Google photos and let it re-upload everything in your My Photos folder to the cloud. In 2 steps we convert the original location down to smaller size. – Lastly search for large files and copy the ones you want to keep as large format into another hidden folder not under photos. Don’t forget to save the edited photos back to your My Photos. Look for Duplicates and eliminate, if you want to get into cropping and color correcting, do this now. – Start up Picasa (or whatever photo manipulation organizer you want to use) and take your time. – Move your disconnected Documents – Google Drive – Photos back to your Documents – My Photos. – When that’s done, Disconnect Google Photos This will cascade down to your PC, Tablets and cell phones. ![]() – Delete EVERYTHING from Google Photos on line. – When that’s done, disconnect Google Drive.

I also know there was a period where I was saving full resolution (via Picasa) to Google when I didn’t need it. I have duplicates that I want to eliminate. I always tend to over complicate things… but here’s my 2 cents. What this means is that if you have automatic upload enabled on the desktop or on a mobile device, the service will not upload any pictures nor videos that already exist. To keep a clean pictures library, I was looking for a way to efficiently remove duplicates without manual work involved.įirst of all, Google Photos will automatically recognise if the exact same image already exists in your library when you have enabled automatic upload. Since the storage is unlimited, it happens I upload the same pictures two times. However, I recently found out that I also have lots of duplicate images on the service. Since it’s unlimited, I often find myself dropping whole folders onto Google Photos using the web interface at. The great feature of Google Photos, next to its easy to use interface, is the unlimited number of photos you can store. Google Photos is by far the best tool to save all of your pictures to I even moved my Flickr library to Google Photos recently and I couldn’t be happier. Sefirat haomer meaning8/28/2023 ![]() I remember lying in bed, as my kids say they now do, wondering what it is like to die, how it will be that the world will go on and on, for billions of years, without me? This can either paralyze us into a life of fear, or it can inspire us to a life of meaning. It is so wonderful to be a child, innocent and free of these mental burdens that can both invigorate and infuriate adults, as we all deal in our own ways with the concept of time and the counting of our days. And I try not to burden them with my own neuroses about time, my own struggles with understanding and living within the construct that yesterday will never happen again, that each day forward is a day closer to an end that is always fast approaching, but-please God-is hopefully far off in the future. They are still only 9 years old, so of course I reassure them that they have a long and beautiful life ahead of them. We have had some amazing discussions over this Pesach time, as they now like to sit and “talk like grown-ups,” as they put it-about time, life, memory, and understanding the differences between 100 years ago, like when their great-grandfather was born, 1000 years ago, and 3000 years ago, like when Moses lived. They understand the concept of being born, as they have cousins who have been born recently, and they understand that life ends, both from their obsession with Harry Potter, which has main characters dying, and from the fact that their dad is often out at night at a shiva minyan. And so on, through the pattern of seven qualities within qualities.My kids are getting older, and with their aging, they are starting to ask questions about time, length of life and death. Within each week, we give our reflection a different nuance each day. In practice: rising to do what we have been appointed by God to do. In practice: the moral commitment that is the foundation for human social life. In practice: pursing peace in every situation. In practice: discerning what is of enduring importance in life. In practice: acting without ulterior motives. In practice: the personal resolve to make necessary personal sacrifices without faltering. WEEK TWO: Gevurah - Strength of character. In practice: the ability to love others in a way that enables them to draw close to the Divine. The seven qualities are described using the language of the seven sefirot, seven qualities of God described in the Zohar (the “Big Book” of Jewish Mysticism). Each week, we should increase our capacity to express on that quality. SPIRITUAL REFLECTION: Kabbalistic and Hassidic teachers suggest that we read the Hebrew words “sefirat ha’omer,” the counting of the Omer, as “sefirot ha’omer,” the divine attributes that emanate into the world during the period of the Omer.įor each of the seven weeks, they teach, we should reflect on a particular personal quality. We make ourselves able to receive new meanings when we actively engage in reflective preparation. Today, we can still look forward to receiving the Torah as if it is new, by finding in it inspiration for new stages of ethical and spiritual growth. Because they were excited to move on to the new, they counted the days until they could receive the Torah. Giving shape to their new life as a nation was a second, even more significant, step. But we do still count! What meanings have recent teachers of Judaism given to the counting? Freedom from slavery was the first step for the Israelites. POST-TEMPLE OMER: At present, we do not fulfill the mitzvah of counting the Omer by bringing grain offerings. ![]() ![]() THE ORIGINAL INSTRUCTION: The Torah instructs us: “You shall count for yourself from the morrow of the Shabbat, from the day when you bring the Omer for the offering, seven complete Sabbaths there shall be, until the morrow of the seventh Shabbat, you shall count fifty days.” (Vayikra 23) Traditionally, the count begins the on second day of Passover, and culminates on the 50 th day with the Festival of Shavuot, a holiday celebrating the spring harvest and the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai.

See my answer to this U&L Q&A titled: " Restrict password-less backup with SFTP" for more details. The other technique you could exploit here would be to limit the SFTP connection so that it was chrooted into specific locations as root, based on which SSH key was used. Better still continue reading and combine this capability with chroot and read only access, to construct tighter restrictions and targeted access to specific locations as root. NOTE: Whomever accesses the server in this method would have cartes blanche access, so use it wisely. You'd still have a record of this connection in your syslog and/or secure.log files (assuming your distro provides this level of logging). # User backup's $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys fileĬommand="/usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server" ssh-dss AAAAC8ghi9ldw= would allow another system with the corresponding key to this pair to SFTP into this system as root. Am I wrong?īeyond what suggested in the comments above you could setup a dedicated SSH key pair just for this activity and add them to the root user's /root/.ssh/authorized_keys file limiting their scope to just a single command. This seems to be the same effect as using sudo to me. Should I concern myself with this when using Key based authentication or is this a trivial difference in security/logging? It seems like Key based authentication records user's serial number in the logs, and you can have multiple keys for the root user to identify each user. It seems to be a best practice to require login as a non-root user and then require use of sudo since the logs will record who was given escalated privileges for each command. I didn't understand how to use sudo and SFTP at same time. Currently, I use root user login directly, but password login is disabled. I understand how to do SSH Tunneling to admin the system services. I need this to work with Mac connecting to Ubuntu as well. Is there a way to keep sudo & key authentication. If the system requires sudo to perform root level commands, How do I get around this?Ĭan I create a way of bypassing sudo for SFTP only? I'm using SSH Key based authentication - rsa key on smart card. Please feel free to write back if you still have issues.I want to be able to use SFTP to edit files that require root permissions. By doing that the user will be restricted (chroot) to his home folder and when WinSCP tries to list the root "/" the content of the home directory will be listed since the root will be mapped to the /bucket/folder. Find your User, edit the configuration, select the bucket and optionally the home directory and click the restricted option. On WinSCP under Advanced Site Settings of your Session -> Environment -> Directories you can Uncheck the option "Remember last used directory" and also clear the "Remote directory" field so it wont connect to "/".Īnother option is to use logical directories or the Restricted option if you are using the AWS Transfer Console. If you are not using the restricted option (logical directories) for your User and you try to list the root "/" the operation will give an Access Denied if you do not have permissions to list all the buckets (s3:ListAllMyBuckets). Based on the error provided it looks like WinSCP is trying to list root "/" and it is failing. Status magic ff88/28/2023 ![]() Revives a single fallen ally with 100% HP.

Do squirrels hibernate in summer8/28/2023 ![]() In addition to removing hiding places, cleaning up your yard makes it easier to spot new ground squirrel mounds and burrows. Remove brush, woodpiles, and other debris to make your yard less attractive for ground squirrels. Ground squirrels are prey animals, so they use brush and vegetation for shelter. Protect your property from ground squirrel damage in the winter with these tips: 1. The most common ground squirrel disease is bubonic plague, which can be transmitted to humans and pets via infected fleas carried by the squirrels. When they dig near trees, they can displace so much soil that a tree’s root system dries out, eventually toppling and killing the tree.įinally, ground squirrels can carry diseases that are dangerous for people, domestic pets, and livestock. When they dig burrows, ground squirrels create mounds that can damage farm or lawn machinery, cause a hazard for people and livestock, and even create soil instability that threatens the foundations of buildings. Ground squirrels will also chew on underground irrigation and utility lines and can destroy sprinkler heads. ![]() They may also use their teeth to strip the bark from young shrubs or to gnaw the leaves off vines, girdling tree trunks and killing young plants. Ground squirrels can destroy or consume tender young seedlings in gardens and landscaping as they search for food. They’re especially fond of apple, apricot, orange, and peach trees. Thanks to their sharp teeth, they’re skilled chewers who can decimate grain crops and fruit and nut trees. What Damage Do They Cause?Įven in the winter, ground squirrels can cause extensive damage to ornamental and food-bearing plants. They store food in their burrows to ensure they have enough food for the winter. ![]() They’ll eat grains, nuts, and seeds during the winter or drought periods when food is scarce. They feed on fresh, green grass and herbaceous plants in the spring. Ground squirrels are herbivores, and their diet changes seasonally. When they come out to feed, ground squirrels will travel about 75-100 yards from their burrow entrance before darting back into the safety of their tunnels. In the winter, they may dig even deeper to get below the frost line. Ground squirrel burrows are usually between 5-30 feet long and about 2.5-4’ below the surface of the soil. Instead, they spend more time in their underground burrows, living in colonies of 2-20 (or more) animals. Where Do They Go?Ĭalifornia ground squirrels don’t go anywhere different during the winter. In California, mating starts as early as January (in warmer parts of the state) and can continue until July, with the breeding season peaking between March- June. This means they spend much of their time foraging for food near their burrows, resting with the other squirrels in their colonies, and breeding during late winter.įascinatingly, less active ground squirrels regulate their blood concentrations during the winter months, redirecting electrolytes like sodium to be stored in areas of the body like the bladder, which helps the animals stay hydrated when food is scarce. What do Ground Squirrels Do in the Winter?ĭuring the winter, ground squirrels focus on conserving their energy and finding the food they need to make it through the season. In places like the San Joaquin Valley, ground squirrels are less active during winter but don’t truly hibernate. ![]() In the coastal areas of Southern California, these little rodents are active throughout the year. While those squirrels do hibernate, that is considered a relatively rare ground squirrel behavior here in the Golden State. The only exception is populations of ground squirrels in inland areas with extreme seasonal temperature variations. Most California ground squirrels do not hibernate in the winter. Do California Ground Squirrels Hibernate in the Winter? In this blog, we’ll share a few critical California ground squirrel hibernation facts and discuss how you can control these pests on your property during the winter months. While these rodents may be less visible during the winter, they are no less active. If you live in California, one critter you likely won’t get a winter break from is the California ground squirrel. Winter has arrived, which means most pests should be taking a break, right? Wrong. AuthorWrite something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview. ArchivesCategories |
