I once played along with a scammer that said I had won some money in Vegas that I had left unclaimed. The kind of money that you had to pay taxes on first before it would be sent to you. It went on for several phone calls over several days until I finally got him to admit that he was a scammer. We actually had an interesting conversation after that -- like apparently a lot people fall for his scam. He even asked me how I thought he could improve his scam to make it more believable. But then he had the audacity to ask if I could give him a list of names and numbers he could try his scam on. Well, I told him that I could send him a list of 100 people, all he had to do was first send me a valid $100 Walmart gift card. :-D

Not necessarily true. If the pub has a sister pub somewhere that uses the same id and password for their wifi and you connected there, then you will automatically connect to the new pub's wifi. Happens to me all the time at Starbucks.

There's nothing specific in my plan that I'm aware of. It's just a basic plan (phone, text, data). Using the navigation features probably uses data, so as long as I stay under my data limit I'm good to go. I've never checked because I've never had an issue with it.

Not sure where you're getting your information. I have an iPhone with Verizon and use it exclusively for navigating unknown areas. It has never let me down and I've never been charged extra for using the navigation features.

It does have a CONVERT method but it won't work with that format of text dates. That was the first thing I tried.

This should work: SELECT DATE_FORMAT(STR_TO_DATE('Nov 20 2015 10:51AM', '%b %d %Y %h:%i%p'), '%Y-%m-%d %H:%i'); #Returns 2015-11-20 10:51 SELECT DATE_FORMAT(STR_TO_DATE('Nov 20 2015 8:43PM', '%b %d %Y %h:%i%p'), '%Y-%m-%d %H:%i'); #Returns 2015-11-20 20:43

I'm looking for a tool that can migrate a MS SQL Server 2014 database to the latest version of MySQL. The migration includes just tables (structure, keys, indexes, etc.) and their data. Then the product needs to sync any data changes made to the SQL Server database with the MySQL database until I'm confident that the changeover of codebases to MySQL are complete...basically inserts, updates, and deletes. There will not be any schema changes allowed during the migration. Downtime of the database for a migration is not really an option. In addition, I'm not too keen on the idea of modifying the data access layers to work with both databases (there's a lot of customization I would have to work with). So it seems to me the best place to do this is at the database level itself. I've been researching tools such as SymmetricDS and ConvertDB. Does anyone have experience with these products that they would like to share? Any other suggestions?
