I'm a complete rookie with Ubuntu, I'm exploring it for hours.  My question is: I saw "AMD drivers are no longer supported on Ubuntu".  Is any possibility to run better graphics in my OS, or other similar?  Anyways, I'm searching for a possible solution.  Here is my benchmark:     Processor     : Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3330 CPU @ 3.00GHz Memory        : 12223MB   (1986MB used) Machine Type        : Desktop Operating System      : Ubuntu   18.04.4 LTS      -Display- Resolution      : 1920x1080 pixels OpenGL Renderer      : Radeon RX 570 Series (POLARIS10, DRM 3.33.0, 5.3.0-41-generic, LLVM 9.0.1) X11   Vendor        : The X.Org Foundation      -Mother Board- Vendor     : ASUSTeK Computer INC.

I have 14.04.5/16.04 or newer and an AMD GPU. I'm not getting the performance I want, and some programs say they need things like OpenCL.  I've heard about fglrx, but if I try to install it on my machine, it breaks and I have no GUI.  Is there anything I can do to get my AMD card working to its full potential?
Limiting OpenVPN bandwidth I'd like to give users a certain amount of traffic. Let's say user A gets 1 GB and user B get 5 GB.  I have a great script which does log all this info, however this script is called when the user disconnects (client-disconnect).  Now, my problem is the following: what if user A uses up 1 GB of data and simply never disconnects? He would be able to use thousands of GB's. Is there any way run a specific script periodically within OpenVPN (so no crontab, since OpenVPN passes environment variables). How do I install Wi-Fi drivers for Realtek RTL8723DE device in Ubuntu 16.04?  lspci -v | grep -i network 02:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device d723 SQL Server: Extract Table Meta-Data (description, fields and their data types) My pixel perfect picture gets blurry when compiled in LaTeX How do I fix Outlook only showing the first line of every message? I'm experiencing a strange problem with Outlook 2019. When viewing a message it only shows the first line. On an HTML message, it stops at the first close paragraph tag. On a plaintext message, it stops at the first newline character. This is true if viewing a message in the reading pane as well as if double-clicking the message to open in its own window. I have the preview pane set to show 3 lines and it does show more of the message so it seems like Outlook can see more of the message than it's rendering in the reading pane. If I use View Source, the underlying data seems fine and the whole message is there. I've tried the following:  Deleting and re-creating the user's mail profile Uninstalling &amp; re-installing Office Creating a new Windows account &amp; connecting Outlook to a different Exchange account than the one that originally exhibited the problem Checked for Windows updates Checked for Office updates  Any ideas what might be causing this? I feel like I've tried everything obvious &amp; I'm striking out on Google. In a batch file I need to extract a month, day, year from the date command.  So I used the following, which essentially parses the Date command to extract its sub strings into a variable:  set Day=%Date:~3,2% set Mth=%Date:~0,2% set Yr=%Date:~6,4%   This is all great, but if I deploy this batch file to a machine with a different regional/country settings, it fails because month, day and year are in different locations.   How can I extract month, day and year regardless of the date format? Why does the definition of limits of a function have strict inequality? Definition (As written in Michael Spivak's Calculus)     The function $f$ approaches a limit $l$ near $a$ means: for every $\epsilon &gt;0$ there is some $\delta &gt; 0$ such that, for all $x$, if $0&lt;|x-a|&lt;\delta$, then $|f(x)-l|&lt;\epsilon$.   my question is: why can't it be: $$0&lt;|x-a|\leq \delta,|f(x)-l|\leq \epsilon$$ After looking at limits of functions for a long time just to grasp it's meaning and using the definition quite a lot solving homework I realized I keep writing the same inequality without really understanding why.  The only explanation given in Spivak's book for this part of the definition goes over it without explaining the inequality. I tried looking for an explanation myself but wasn't really able to find anything wrong with it. Is it also possible to write the definition like that or is there a problem with that?   (first non-homework related question :p) If $Var(X)=0$ then is $X$ a constant? We know that the variance of a constant is $0$. Is the converse also true? Can we say that if the variance of some random variable is $0$ it is a constant? "#include" a text file in a C program as a char[] Is there a way to include an entire text file as a string in a C program at compile-time?  something like:   file.txt:  This is a little text file  main.c:  #include &lt;stdio.h&gt; int main(void) {    #blackmagicinclude("file.txt", content)    /*    equiv: char[] content = "This is\na little\ntext file";    */    printf("%s", content); }    obtaining a little program that prints on stdout "This is a little text file"  At the moment I used an hackish python script, but it's butt-ugly and limited to only one variable name, can you tell me another way to do it? Schwarz's Lemma and functions with positive real part Problem:     Let $D = \{ z \in \mathbb C : |z| &lt; 1 \}$. Suppose $f : D \to \mathbb C$ is a non-constant analytic function such that $\mathrm{Re} f(z) \geq 0$ for all $z \in D$.      (a) Show that $\mathrm{Re} f(z) \neq 0$ for all $z \in D$.      (b) Using a Möbius transformation and Schwarz's lemma, prove that if   $f(0) = 1$, then $$ |f(z)| \leq {1+|z| \over 1-|z|}. $$   What can be said if $f(0) \neq 1$?      (c) Show that if $f(0) = 1$, then $f$ also satisfies $$ |f(z)| \geq {1-|z| \over 1+|z|}. $$   Progress:  (a) We can use the open mapping theorem.  (b) We can compose a Möbius transformation $m$ that sends the right-half plane to $D$ with $f$. Then $h = m \circ f$ satisfies the hypotheses of Schwarz's lemma by construction. Simple manipulations of the inequality from Schwarz's lemma give the result.  (c) Looking at part (a), we know that $\mathrm{Re} f(z) \neq 0$, and so $f(z) \neq 0$. Thus, we can use the function $g = 1/f$ in the statement of part (b).  Question:  What about when $f(0) \neq 1$? I don't think you can get anything from $f(z)-f(0)+1$ unless $\mathrm{Re} f(0) &lt; 1$. And you can't in general rearrange the inputs of $f$ because $1$ isn't necessarily in the image of $f$. Also, I don't think you can get anything from $f(z)/f(0)$ unless $f(0)$ is real, because otherwise the range of $f(z)/f(0)$ could extend into the left-half plane. Subspace of Noetherian space still Noetherian How to get the newest file in a directory in php Would spending one more year as an undergraduate adversely affect my chances of getting into a graduate program?   I wasn't really thinking about economics PhD until recently so my GPA is not too impressive and I lack in math courses so I've decided to spend one more year to boost my GPA taking upper level courses and get a math minor.  However, could the very fact of spending one more year to finish college be a disadvantage of getting into a graduate program? Is there exist a function defined on the real or complex numbers that, restricted to the integers, is equal to the factorial? What are point objects? Example of a ring without Invariant Basis Property What is the difference between therapy and treatment? I am trying to prove that:  Let $f$ be analytic in the closed unit disc with $f(z)\leq 1$ for $|z|\leq1$.  For a given $0&lt;r&lt;1$ and $|z_1|,|z_2|\leq r$, $z_1\neq z_2$ then,   $$\left|\frac{f(z_2)-f(z_1)}{z_2-z_1}\right|\leq \frac{1}{(1-r)^2}.$$  My attempt is: part a  of the question asks to prove $$\left|\sum_k^\infty a_nz^n\right|\leq \frac{ |z^k|}{1-|z|}.$$   So, \begin{eqnarray*}  \left|\frac{f(z_2)-f(z_1)}{z_2-z_1}\right|&amp;=&amp; \frac{|\sum_1^\infty a_nz_2^n-\sum_1^\infty a_nz_1^n|}{|z_2-z_1|}\\  &amp;\leq&amp; \frac{\frac{ |z_1 |}{1-|z_1|}+\frac{ |z _2|}{1-|z_2|}}{|z_2-z_1|}\\  &amp;\leq&amp;\frac{1}{(1-r)^2} \frac{   |z_2| ({1-|z_1|})+  |z _1| (1-|z_2|) }{|z_2-z_1|}\\ \end{eqnarray*} But could not prove that the last term is controlled by 1. What happens if a Rainbow Servant takes levels in Mystic Theurge? When a Rainbow Servant hits level 10 they gain access to all nondomain Cleric spells. All spells that do not appear on any other spell list they have are cast as Divine spells. This means that, if they have the skills and have learned 2nd level spells, they qualify for the Mystic Theurge Prestige Class.  But what happens when you actually start to take levels in it? The text says:     When a new mystic theurge level is gained, the character gains new spells per day as if he had also gained a level in any one arcane spellcasting class he belonged to before he added the prestige class and any one divine spellcasting class he belonged to previously.   What it does not say however, here or elsewhere, that these classes have to be different classes. Do you get one level in Wizard/Warmage/whaever for being an Arcane caster, then ANOTHER level for being a Divine caster as well? The text for the Rainbow Servant says the following:     Such spells are cast as divine spells if they don’t appear on the sorcerer/wizard or bard spell lists.   So it comes down to these questions:   Does being able to cast Divine spells qualify you as a Divine Caster, or is there more to it than that? If it is, what happens when you take levels in Mystic Theurge like this? Do you go up one level or two? What happens if this means you go over 20th caster level? Do you keep gaining spell slots like a level 20+ character, or does something else happen? I have terrible screen tearing, and I don't know how to go about trouble shooting it. I would LOVE to switch to Ubuntu completely, but with this tearing, it's just too irritating. It's only present on Ubuntu based distros, (including element OS). On Manjaro (Arch fork), it does not suffer from tearing.
