I was stacking loot boxes to open them all when I reach 100. Some days ago I logged on the PTR. I saw that I had 40 boxes (on normal server I got 47, so the copy of the data on PTR was 2-3 days old) and knowing that it won't affect my boxes on the normal server, I opened them and I was quite disappointed. Now I read this question:     I started wondering if it possible that the content of the loot boxes is generated at the time when the copy to PTR was made or the content is carried over from the normal server?
Are the contents of a loot box determined at the time it is awarded or when it is opened?  For example, if you collect multiple loot boxes before a special event but opened them during the special event, would they have the potential of spawning rewards from that event?
Cost Distance Analyst In QGIS? Are there any tools, plugins or methods in QGIS which allows for an analysis of the best path between two points using least cost path method? As shown below ArcGIS has several distance tools. I have a computer with a video card that has no Linux support.  I discovered this issue while trying to use a persistent usb to boot from.   I found that I can boot like that if I change options and edit so as to add nomodeset there (see ).  Also, editing the syslinux.cfg file from my live persistent USB and adding nomodeset in a line there made this setting automatic for booting from the persistent USB.  Can I make a similar edit for proper install from the same live USB?  Is it possible to edit something on the live USB in order to install the SO from it,  -- that is: having automatically the nomodeset setting already there when the installation starts?  My problem is that in order to install I think I already have to have added nomodeset or I'll see nothing on my display. I need a way to be sure that nomodeset it's permanent from the start.

How to install and how to compile networkx python on QGIS?  I always get an error that no module named networkx in the console of QGIS I copied the file networkx in C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS Lisboa\apps\Python27\Lib\site-packages and there are not change. How should we handle a question which was deleted and reasked? A user has asked  which did not receive much attention, and thus the user deleted the post. After some time, the user asked the  (with just slight changes to the title and a tag change), so that it could receive a bit more attention. The strange thing is that the question was not downvoted or poorly written, and yet the user deleted the original post. Now, since the original question was deleted, I could not mark the new one as a duplicate (it threw an error). My question is, how do we handle such questions? Just let them be as such or let the user know about it or is there another way to handle such situations? According to Hubble's Law, how can the expansion of the Universe be accelerating? Scientists today think the expansion of the universe is accelerating.   According to Hubble's law, objects further away are moving faster than objects closer to us. The further away an object is, the further back in time we are seeing, so in the past objects moved faster (is this sentence correct?).  So because objects moved faster before than they do now, surely that's deceleration not acceleration?  my textbook says "if Scientists today think the rate of expansion of the Universe were decreasing then distant objects should appear different to Hubble's Law predictions: universe is accelerating. More distant objects would seem to be receding faster (since expansion was faster in the past)" How do I download a YouTube video? What are instructions on how to download videos from YouTube?

Sequential renaming of files I found an answer for  which works fine for renaming filenames as follows :  1.jpg &gt; 00001.jpg 2.jpg &gt; 00002.jpg . . . 9.jpg &gt; 00009.jpg   That uses the following command:  rename 's/\d+/sprintf("%05d", $&amp;)/e' *.jpg   But my filenames aren't numeric. They are an alphanumeric sequence, like: a.jpg, b.jpg, c.jpg...... m.jpg.  In a similar way to the original question, I want to rename these so they display in the correct sequence. How do I do this? How can I compute the integral $\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{dt}{1+t^4}$? I have to compute this integral $$\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{dt}{1+t^4}$$ to solve a problem in a homework. I have tried in many ways, but I'm stuck. A search in the web reveals me that it can be do it by methods of complex analysis. But I have not taken this course yet. Thanks for any help.

Parenthetical pluralization of words ending in '-y' Origin/reason for the expression "on the bus" instead of "in the bus" This is sort of a follow up to my question .  I was told a while ago that the reason why we use "on the bus" instead of "in the bus" is because back in the day buses were open, that is, they didn't have a roof.   Is this story correct or is there another reason why the correct expression is "on the bus", in spite of the fact that when one gets on the bus, he is actually inside the bus? Show that $n$ lines separate the plane into  $\frac{n^2+n+2}{2}$ regions if no two of these lines are parallel and no three pass through a common point.   I know we start with the base case, where, if we call the above equation P(n), P(0), for 0 lines would be 0.  But I really have no idea how to begin the inductive step.  How do we know what k+1 we're supposed to arrive at?  Thanks! Evaluating $\int_0^{\infty}\frac{\ln(x^2+1)}{x^2+1}dx$ I am having difficulty in how to calculate the Pearson's $\chi^2$ statistic for a contingency table with entries: (3, 0) and (0, 3) (row-wise).
