I would say give onlyoffice a try. It's not FOSS but does have free tier for home use and it's what I go to for non-main work computer. Beats libre imo.

My best answer at this point would be that you need to make your own program to find and remove by content. Because no other manual pdf editor would reasonably have such a feature since it's so niche.

Also vibe coding with AI tends to be very good for singular tasks like this.

I wouldn't recommend converting the pdf to anything else since that would remove the layer info unless it's to more complicated formats like EPS, illustrator, etc.

I would have no issue with vibrator usage, since that's a tool, not a person. But I don't think I want anyone else dunking on my gf while I make the alley-oop.

From the emasculated male perspective, LeBron is the competitor, not your teammate.

To properly do this the phone has to support it at hardware level. Pixel and iPhone have this feature but don't know about yours. There are apps like battery guru which will alert you, but you have to manually unplug at that point.

Could've been just a greasy hand when it was off and not hot. The patina can then build differently there because of the residue.

This is why reading and writing is one of my lucid dreaming triggers. Don't need tops or other tokens like in Inception. Just try to read the same thing multiple times and it's different everytime in a dream, because you aren't actually reading, just hallucinating that you are.

My guess: It's a link. This news website likely will show other South Africa news if you click it.

Payment processors don't know which game you bought. That's not the concern.

Their concern is that the store they do business with provides services to content they deem inappropriate. Frankly, I'm surprised they allowed this much for so long given the past.

Why credit card processors are puritans, I have no idea. But MC, Visa and PayPal have historically always been super anti-porn.

Article states it's the cost of only the last and third subpoena. Since the first two were struck down in court already, they're arguing making the exact same request again for a third time afterwards is just waste of time for everyone.

Unauthorized reproduction or copyright infringements is more scary and dramatic than theft in some ways. Just look at the punishment for copyright infringement vs theft. One is waaaaaay more severe. It's almost akin to saying "You stole his life!" Instead of "you killed him!" Since severity of punishment for copyright infringements is pretty much up there with murder.

I'd say it's like half meetings. and the other half is prepping for meetings. In office and out of office too, dinner, golf, etc. Small meetings like with the other C positions, mid level mgt, to large meetings like conferences. Pretty much from mid-size company and up, it's all just meetings. And when shit hits the fan, they get to decide on which shit tastes better.

Types of meetings change too. Like if you want more cash, which companies usually do, you're on constant hunt for investment meetings and networking. And generally the entire time, various companies will try to approach your company (or you) to setup a meeting so they can say how wonderfully helpful their company is for your company. Sometimes you agree to those meetings and sometimes you don't. Again, even as a mid sized company, you likely get enough requests for meetings that you literally can't book all of them. So you get more C levels to delegate some of those meetings for you and then you have meetings with your C levels. And as you grow, you try to weed out less important ones. And you do that through... networking.

Everything kinda keeps looping back to networking.

Imagine you're playing CK3 or any grand strategy 4X game. Networking is like allies. You can just get whole bunch of allies to attacc other kingdoms even if you're weak. That's the power of networking. And every click of a button to do something is like a meeting. You want to build a fort? In CK3, click. In IRL, meeting.

It's the ad networks fault. And it's 1337x fault for using shitty ad network. But once you get into shadier and less commonly approved business, only options you have for ads are shitty networks that have nearly no ad vetting system. Which means sometimes you get shit like this happening.
