I am a newbie in Ubuntu. I want to use poweroff in my terminal, for traditional shut down of my computer. First of all, is this correct? Secondly, I am forced to use sudo poweroff and then enter a password. Is there a way to make the poweroff command such that, specifically poweroff command will no longer ask for sudo privilege, just commanding poweroff will work.  Thank you for your support
I have desktop edition of Ubuntu.  I like the Terminal so that that I prefer to shutdown my computer with the shutdown command.  However when I type shutdown now it prompts me to enter my password.Is there any way I can shutdown my computer using this command without entering my password?
What Hogwarts classes are taught to two houses at once? I have a DEM layer from ASTER satellite and I want to get the slope information from it.  I use terrain analysis > slope, but the output is so wrong. Why is that?  Here is the DEM:     And here is the "Slope" that is totally wrong. It should stretch the values from 0 - 89.9097 but it does not. My office is a converted garage about 30 feet from my house.   I have a coaxial cable already running from my house to the office.   I want to attach a Ethernet cable from my DSL modem, in my office, to a computer in my house.   Since I already have the coaxial cable installed, I bought two coax to Ethernet converters (NVA-P-860-BP78 Video Balun), but when I hooked them up I am getting no signal. It was my understanding that an Ethernet signal could travel over a coaxial cable.   Is that wrong? Any ideas why this isn't working? Proof of the equality $\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{k^2}{2^k} = 6$ I have a scrbook document with an openright option, i.e. every once in a while a blank left page appears in the document. Not that I really want to do this, but how could I include the infamous "This page has been intentionally left blank" in those blank pages cleanly, i.e. without too many hacks?  Bonus points for including a different famous quote on each blank page instead of the dull default ;) How to align right within equation array Are static fields open for garbage collection? Given an hypothetical utility class that is used only in program setup:  class MyUtils {    private static MyObject myObject = new MyObject();    /*package*/static boolean doStuff(Params... params) {        // do stuff with myObject and params...    } }   will myObject be garbage collected when it is no longer being used, or will it stick around for the life of the program? Consider a string under tension, for example, a string on a guitar. When a guitar string is plucked, it vibrates at a certain frequency. When the tension on the string is increased by twisting the tuning peg at the end of the neck, the frequency of the string increases. According to , increasing the tension on a string also increases the speed of the wave moving through it. According to  the speed of a wave is higher in a more dense medium.  Does this mean that increasing the tension also increases the density?  This does not seem very logical to me, since density is the "compactness" of a substance, or how close together the individual molecules are. By twisting the tuning peg on a guitar, you rotate the cylinder that the string is fixed to, wrapping it around more tightly. This pulls more of the string around that cylinder, similarly to when you reel in a fishing rod. Since more of the string's molecules are now wrapped around the peg, there should be fewer molecules over the same distance between the bridge and the nut (the two ends of the vibrating portion of the string), therefore bringing the density down. Why does the co-efficent of kinetic friction of a block on an inclined plane not change when you increase the angle of the plane? Prove $kf(x)+f'(x)=0 $ when conditions of Rolle's theorem are satisfied . Prove that if $f$ is differentiable on $ [a,b]$ and if $ f(a)=f(b)=0$ then for any real $k$ there is an $ x \in (a,b) $such that $$kf(x)+f'(x)=0 $$  As all the conditions of Rolle's theorem are satisfied one can say that there is at least one  $c \in (a,b) $ such that $f'(c) =0$ How should I proceed furthur ? How can I use this to get to the required equation ? iOS 7 Locked Bug via Ubuntu 13.10 I wanted to bring up an issue with the latest Ubuntu release that I hope can be solved. Although I will agree with the community that iOS 7 is not the most open platform release, it still is my desire to be able to grab Photos, Music, and Files off my Phone similar to what I would do to any other device.  Every time I connect my device to Ubuntu, I receive the following notification:  The device "Justin's iPhone" is locked. Enter the passcode on the device and click "Try again".   On my iPhone, I select the following   Unfortunately, this is where problems start to arise. It appears that Ubuntu either does not recognize the permissions from my iPhone or the iPhone is not allowing itself to truly be unlocked. As we can see the permissions are   Browsing askubuntu, I encountered the following   After running the code, I receive the following error:  justin@justin-CT15:~$ idevicepair unpair &amp;&amp; idevicepair pairERROR: Device d1fea2c56e51199f901eb34020a1581ea31a2a50 is not paired with this host   If I call the command again, i receive another error:  justin@justin-CT15:~$ idevicepair pair ERROR: Could not pair with the device because a passcode is set. Please enter the passcode on the device and retry.   Ultimately, I am stuck to experiment with solutions that end up not working. I am troubled by the lack of information and support for the iOS 7 platform on Ubuntu's latest release. If anyone has a workable solution or experiment for a workaround, I am happy to try  Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day! Fréchet differentiability from Gâteaux differentiability Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\Omega \subset X$ be open.  The functional $f$ has a Gâteaux derivative $g \in X'$ at $u \in \Omega$ if, $\forall h\in X,$ $$\lim_{t \rightarrow 0}[f(u+th)-f(u)- \langle g,th \rangle]=0$$   How can I prove the following:  If $f$ has a continuous Gâteaux derivative on $\Omega$, then $f \in C^1(\Omega,\mathbb R)$. How can I make Windows Paint save by default as JPEG format? I have a shapefile and I want to change the order of the features. Is that possible? I want to sort the features in the shapefile because I'm embedding this shapefile in a mobile app. The app will display a list of features, and although I could do the sorting at load time, I'd prefer to have them sorted. How do you change age settings on ROBLOX? How do you set your age settings on ROBLOX if you accidentally set to under 13? I accidentally put 2008 instead of 1998 in the sign up section. Is there any way to change this, as in settings, age settings are greyed out. Easier/better way to compute and store a value that's accessed as a property? Regular Expressions: Is there an AND operator? Obviously, you can use the | (pipe?) to represent OR, but is there a way to represent AND as well?  Specifically, I'd like to match paragraphs of text that contain ALL of a certain phrase, but in no particular order. Is there a canonical explanation for how Ant-Man's weight works when he shrinks down that's consistent with the various events depicted in the film?    I think the explanation given in the film is roughly "the suit compresses the space in-between atoms, so your size decreases, your density increases, and your total mass stays the same", however it seems to be portrayed in contradictory ways.  For instance:   He can float in water, and even be sent shooting through the air by a relatively gentle flow of water filling a bathtub.  This wouldn't happen if he retained his original mass, as he'd essentially be the densest thing on the planet and should sink like a stone even in a vat of molten lead. Upon landing after being ejected from the bathtub, the ceramic tile underneath him shatters.  That takes a significant amount of force, and similar effects are used at other points in the movie where he falls onto (or straight through) various things. He's able to get sucked into a vacuum-cleaner.  One that didn't even appear to be a high-end, extra powerful vacuum-cleaner, let alone one capable of sucking up a 200 pound piece of dust.   He can run along the barrel of a gun as someone shoots it, apparently without causing them to drop the weapon or even have trouble continuing to aim it.     Does a more consistent explanation exist in other media, that would fit with the above examples?  Or is this simply a case of the power being made to do whatever happened to be most convenient at the time? Why is a deductive closure an intersection of maximally consistent sets? Full Question: Show that if $\Delta(\Gamma)$ is the deductive closure of a consistent $\Gamma$ then $\Delta(\Gamma)$ is the intersection of all maximal consistent sets of formulas $\Lambda$ with $\Gamma \subseteq \Lambda$.  I'm really stuck with this question, I honestly don't know how to even start. Can someone please provide some assistance? Does going outside of range or line of sight after casting a spell have any effect?
