Is there an alternative to chromium-browser as a snap I would like to install chromium-browser, but since it is a snap, I cannot pre-install it.  Is there another option or way to install it the old-school way and will that be deprecated in the future?
How to remove snap completely without losing the Chromium browser? I am wondering whether or not there is a way to completely remove snap from Ubuntu 19.10 without losing the ability to install important applications like Chromium.   When I just recently updated to the newest Ubuntu release I realized that the installer programmatically reinstalled snap, although I had manually removed it before. Additionally the installer removed Chromium, which was installed via the repositories, and reinstalled it via snap.   As I don't want snap to be installed on my machines for various reasons my question is if anybody knows a safe way to remove it, and to get the Chromium DEB back to the sources?  Is there a PPA? Could I use a source of an Ubuntu flavor additionally, which didn't remove the Chromium Deb from its sources?

I know how to make it manually with cone rotation around the sphere. but maybe there's much simpler solution or addon that has that option, preferably not very high poly solution.  Also if possible I would like the spikes not to be very pointy if that makes any sense      Thanks Waiting for a file to be created in C# What language should I speak to my daughter? I am a Greek, born, living and working in France, married to an Albanian woman, working all day in English.  I have a 2,5 year old daughter, who lived from:    September 2014 to April 2015 and February 2014 to April 2014   in Albania (11 months, approx. 36% of her lifespan), where people only talked albanian to her.  I speak only French with my child, BUT I only speak Greek with my wife, because she refuses to speak French with me, because she is insecure in French. Yet, my wife speaks Albanian to my child.  These facts lead to the circumstance, that the language development of my child seems a bit delayed, because she doesn't yet make three word sentences.  Though I am a little worried about her language development, I want to know, if there is a problem if I also start speaking English to her on a regular basis, since I heard that children are capable growing up learning different languages.  Is there something like a burnout/depression danger in children? Since I can see it in her eyes that she wants to communicate but is not able to and I can see it bothering her a lot.  Should I cut my communication with my daughter down to only French? Should I cut it down to speaking Greek with her, since this is the language I speak with her mother every day? Or should I just continue mixing everything up? Or can I even start speaking English with her?  I don't want her to struggle to the point of extreme frustration, but if this means that in the end, her language development will catch up to normal kids, I am inclined to let her struggle a bit. So are there any longterm deficits for her, if I introduce English?  Please advice.  George Why on the first page Google says there are thousands of results but on the last page there are less than a hundred? Can an observer B move in such a way that his clock will run faster than that of a fixed observer A? My understanding of Special and General Relativity comes from books which attempt to explain them to non-experts in these fields.   Let A and B be observers, which at some time t(0), are together at some location P fixed to the earth's surface. A and B are provided with "clocks", which at time t(0), are identical lumps of the same radioactive element-that has a very long half-life. A and A's "clock" remain fixed to the earth's surface. B and B's "clock" leave A and stay together, but eventually return to A after some interval of time T (as measured by A's "clock"). If, during this time T, B's velocity relative to A is sufficiently close to the velocity of light or B remains close to a sufficiently massive body, it seems that time can "pass more slowly" for B than for A. So that when B rejoins A, B's "clock" will contain more of the radioactive element than A's "clock"   My question is: Are there any scenarios that B together with B"s "clock" can undergo (during the time T) which will cause time to "pass more quickly" for B than for A? So that when B rejoins A, B's "clock" will contain less of the radioactive element than A's "clock". If there are no such scenarios, is there any fact or law in Relativity theory which rules them out? Would it be considered cheating to ask for homework help on the internet, if I openly acknowledge the help received? Why Lasso or ElasticNet perform better than Ridge when the features are correlated I have a set of 150 features, and many of them are highly correlated with each other. My goal is to predict the value of a discrete variable, whose range is 1-8. My sample size is 550, and I am using 10-fold cross-validation.   AFAIK, among the regularization methods (Lasso, ElasticNet, and Ridge), Ridge is more rigorous to correlation among the features.  That is why I expected that with Ridge, I should obtain a more accurate prediction.  However, my results show that the mean absolute error of Lasso or Elastic is around 0.61 whereas this score is 0.97 for the ridge regression. I wonder what would be an explanation for this.  Is this because I have many features, and Lasso performs better because it makes a sort of feature selection, getting rid of the redundant features?

When I'm watching a film in Mythtv the screen turns to black every 10 - 15 mins and I have to log back into Ubuntu. Very annoying!  How do I disable the black screen / screensaver / logout in Unity?  There no longer seems to be any options to turn the screen saver off as there were in Ubuntu prior to Unity. Can't boot into Ubuntu in Windows 10 / Ubuntu dual boot I installed Ubuntu on a Dell XPS 13 laptop that had Windows 10 preinstalled on it. I installed it from a USB flash drive on a partition. When I boot my computer I can only boot into Windows 10 and Ubuntu is nowhere to be seen.  If I boot into my USB then I can see that Ubuntu is installed, but I can't get to it from the BIOS boot menu. I have a mathematical transformation that takes 16 parameters (grouped into 3+8+5) and would like to make a latex command for it, so that I can easily change the notation for it if the need arises.  As far as I know, both \def and \newcommand take a maximum of 9 arguments, is there any (recommended) way to extend this? I need a step-by-step, simple and easy way to configure swappiness.

What are the requirements for national parks? I'm trying to place a national park here:    But the button to create one with the Naturalist is greyed out:    I know the civopedia lists the requirements for building a national park, but they are either wrong or I'm having a hard time understanding them:   The tiles must be natural wonders, Mountains or a tile with an Appeal of Charming or better. As you can see the top are both Breathtaking and the bottom ones are part of the Great Barrier Reef wonder All four tiles must be owned by the same city. All tiles are within the boarders of Mbwila The tiles for a diamond shape. All tiles are connected close to each other in a diamond shape No tile can have an improvement or district on it. All tiles are in their initial condition.   So I'm probably missing something. Can someone tell me what's the problem? Did this character lose a limb in “The Force Awakens?” Inspired by  which states limb loss as a recurring theme, I started thinking about the final lightsaber battle. After watching The Force Awakens the second time, I was not sure if      Kylo Ren   lost a limb or just lost his lightsaber. We definitely see      Rey slash at Ren’s right hand.   So knowing that context:      Did Kylo Ren actually lose his arm/hand?
