PayPal won't accept the card I have, and I wanted to say "thank you" for all the work on Ubuntu with, well, some cash.  How else can I pay?
When I wanted to download Ubuntu 12.10 from ubuntu.com, I was asked to make a donation. However, there is only a PayPal option to make the payment. But I don't use PayPal. Is there any other option to make the payment?

Here's my source:  #!/bin/bash  echo "Running script to free general cached memory!" echo ""; echo "Script must be run as root!"; echo ""; echo "Clearing swap!"; swapoff -a &amp;&amp; swapon -a; echo ""; echo "Clear inodes and page file!"; echo 1 &gt; /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; echo "";   It clears caches and stuff, and it echoes that it needs to be run as root in the terminal. I basically just want the script to cease running if it detects it's not being executed as root.   Example:  "Running script to free general cached memory!" "Warning: script must be run as root or with elevated privileges!" "Error: script not running as root or with sudo! Exiting..."   If run with elevated privileges, it just runs as normal. Any ideas?

I would like to change the caption in the List of Tables in a way it is different from the caption in the corresponding table. How can I do that? Does there exist a command to do that? Incorrect plot using pgfplots (trigonometric functions like cos, sin and tan) I'm trying to plot a function with pgfplots for LaTeX. Unfortunately, pgfplots plots the function incorrectly.  Here is the LaTeX code I use:  \begin{figure}[H] \centering \begin{tikzpicture}     \begin{axis}[xlabel=Gameplays,ylabel=Rating]         \addplot+[gray,domain=1:30]         {0.5 + 0.5 * ((atan(x) * 2 / pi)^11.79)};     \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} \caption{Omzetten van aantal gameplays tot impliciete rating} \label{fig:omzetten_impliciete_ratings} \end{figure}   Here is how the function should look like:     This is how it is plotted:    Does anyone know what I do wrong?

Connect Error (2054) - mysql_old_password issue still not solved If $M$ isn't Noetherian, $M$ has a submodule maximal with respect to being not finitely generated. I'm answering this question:     Let $M$  be a module. Show that if  $M$ is not Noetherian then $M$ has a submodule $N$ such that $N$ is not finitely generated but $A$ is finitely generated whenever $N &lt; A ≤ M$.   The solution starts as follows (I'm following a given solution): Let $Y$ be the set of non-finitely-generated submodules of $M$. If $(N_α)$ is a chain in $Y$ then $Q= \bigcup_αN_α $ is in $Y$, else $Q$ is f.g., which implies $Q=N_α$ for some $α$, whence $N_α$  is f.g., contradiction.  I don't understand why if $Q$ is f.g., then $Q=N_α$ for some $α$? Am I missing some fact?  Thanks! an "X is an X is an X" what does this mean? How to unzip a zip file from the Terminal?

Prove $\gcd(a,b) \gcd(a,c) \gcd(b,c) \,\text{lcm} (a,b,c)^2=$ $\text{lcm}(a,b)\,\text{lcm}(a,c) \,\text{lcm}(b,c) \gcd(a,b,c)^2$ I'm trying prove $$\gcd(a,b) \gcd(a,c) \gcd(b,c) \,\text{lcm} (a,b,c)^2=\text{lcm}(a,b)\,\text{lcm}(a,c) \,\text{lcm}(b,c) \gcd(a,b,c)^2$$  It is a part of solution of another problem I try a lot to prove it but I could not be succeed.

Language Options -> Spell Checking in Windows 10 version 1803 How long does a sequence need to be to be guaranteed to have a monotonic subsequence length k? The sequence 7, 2, 4, 1, 4, 8 has an increasing subsequence length four (2, 4, 4, 8) and a decreasing subsequence length three (7, 4, 1). It has other monotonic (increasing or decreasing) subsequences too, but none longer than four.  How long does a sequence need to be to be guaranteed to have a monotonic subsequence length k? The Bash Manual says   { list; }        Placing a list of commands between curly braces causes the list to be executed in the current shell context. No subshell is   created. The semicolon (or newline) following list is required.      The braces are reserved words, so they must be separated from the list   by blanks or other shell metacharacters.       The parentheses are operators, and are recognized as separate tokens   by the shell even if they are not separated from the list by   whitespace.   If I remove the semicolon, like this:  $ { date } &gt;    Why does it expect stdin input? A metacharacter is a character that separates words.  The semicolon and whitespace are both "shell metacharacters". Why can't whitespace separate words date and }? Why do we need a semicolon instead of a whitespace for separating the words? Merging banking and casual style in moderncv (2) Effect Of Frequency on Photocurrent The situation is this.. I am performing a photoelectric effect experiment - just the usual - evacuated glass tube containing two metal electrodes connected to an external source of DC voltage (say an alkaline cell) and ammeter in series. I shine a light on one of the electrodes - the frequency is more than enough to cause eject photoelectrons, and the voltage of the cell opposes the electrons which are trying to get to the other electrode. The question is this - what happens to the current on increasing the intensity of light while keeping no. of photons falling on the electrode constant (in other words increasing the frequency)?   Does the current remain the same because the no. of photons falling on the electrode is constant and so no. of electrons being ejected is constant? Or does it increase because the electrons have more kinetic energy, ie, they are moving faster towards the other electrode so that the $t$ (time) term in $I$ = $q$/$t$ is less ($q$ remains constant because no. of electrons being ejected is still the same)?   This question appeared in one of my tests and the answer key says that the current remains constant but think that case 2 is correct and current would increase, which is why I asked this question.  Thanks. $\forall$ At the beginning or at the end?
