On my research list: Home – Outpan as it is a key-value store of EAN (actually GTIN, so including GS1 UPC, EAN which means barcodes like UPC-12, EAN-8, EAN-13 and ITF-14).
- [WayBack] Global Trade Item Number – Wikipedia
- [WayBack] API Documentation – Outpan Developers
Legacy API
Get Product Information
GET https://api.outpan.com/v2/products/[GTIN]?apikey=[YOUR API KEY]
Add Product Name
POST https://api.outpan.com/v2/products/[GTIN]/name?apikey=[YOUR API KEY]
Required POST parameters:
name: The name you would like to add for this product.
Add Product Attribute
POST https://api.outpan.com/v2/products/[GTIN]/attribute?apikey=[YOUR API KEY]
Required POST parameters:
name: Name of the attribute you would like to add for this product.
value: Value for the attribute you would like to add for this product.
- [GTIN] is the barcode number (ISBN, EAN, UPC, …) of the product you’re looking up.
- All API calls must be done via HTTPS. Plain HTTP calls will be rejected.

A change of FetchOptions.CursorKind from ckAutomatic to ckDynamic does the trick.
did fix this issue:
I stumbled about a problem regarding FireDAC and MSSQL 2016. The table has four fields, one being of type varbinary(max). When I omit this blob field from the SELECT, I can update any field without problems using the edit and post methods of TFDQuery. It is only when I include that blob field in the SELECT, I cannot update the other fields anymore (the blob is not changed). The post runs into a timeout. It seems that the table is somehow locked. That guess is backed by the fact that even a simple UPDATE query executed from Management Studio is also blocked until I reset my application inside the debugger.Interestingly an INSERT runs without problems.

Thomas Pfister came with a nice solution to this question:
[WayBack] Does anyone know how to embed a superscript Registered symbol in a Rave memo buffer? – Phillip Woon – Google+
Since Google has such bad indexing of G+, here is the solution:
procedure TForm4.RvSystem1Print(Sender: TObject);
const
SuperscriptOn = RPTFPrefix + RPTFSuperscript + RPTFOn + RPTFSuffix; // from RpDefine.pas
SuperscriptOff = RPTFPrefix + RPTFSuperscript + RPTFOff + RPTFSuffix;
var
MemoBuf: TMemoBuf;
begin
MemoBuf := TMemoBuf.Create;
try
MemoBuf.Text := 'Test' + SuperscriptOn + '®' + SuperscriptOff + ' Test';
MemoBuf.PrintStart := 0.5;
MemoBuf.PrintEnd := 8.0;
with Sender as TBaseReport do begin
PrintMemo(MemoBuf, 1, true);
end;
finally
FreeAndNil(MemoBuf);
end;
end;

A while ago, when upgrading from CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20170206" to CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20170213":
aRetrieving: monitoring-tools-1.14.0-4.2.x86_64.rpm ......................................................................................................[error]
File './x86_64/monitoring-tools-1.14.0-4.2.x86_64.rpm' not found on medium 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/monitoring/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/'
What happened is that the local zypper configuration was out of sync with the repository. A zypper refresh solved that.
So I expanded my zypper-twup alias to always include the zypper refresh.
Then I updated the documentation from [old WayBack] openSUSE:Tumbleweed upgrade – openSUSE to [new WayBack] openSUSE:Tumbleweed upgrade – openSUSE.

Somehow I missed this:
So I made a file and an image backup, then updated the firmware.

Does anyone know how to disable Edge popping up with a failed link www.msftconnecttest.com/redirect on machines blocked by a router?
This happens on the PC running Windows 10 Pro N (winver shows 1709 build 16299.371) that is not allowed to do any internet access.
Related: [WayBack] How to Find Out Which Build and Version of Windows 10 You Have | ilicomm
Later:
This seems to be intended as per these links:
TL;DR:
This can happen on Windows 8 and up when Windows thinks there is a partial network connection and a logon to a proxy or captive portal might solve the solution.
Allowing these in the proxy for port 80 solves the issue:
