I have 2 accounts on my Mac Pro both are using the same color display profile however on my account it is clearly a lot brighter. I can test this by switching between the 2 accounts with the same image open in both accounts. On account A you can see the light shades of gray on account B the light shades of gray are missing and it just looks solid white.  I removed everything from account B's startup items and looked at the processes running on a clean boot into both accounts and the only differences are processes I expect to make no difference (mysql, perl etc.)  When I login into the account B (with the problem) that does have the problem I see the brightness change 2 times before finder and the rest of the desktop starts, whereas logging into account A doesn't seem to do this.  I would like to know what is causing this and stop it as it's very annoying.
I think this is a duplicate of an old question without a good answer:  My child was doing schoolwork on her school-issued Macbook Air. Suddenly lighter greys are totally white. This generally gives the images on the screen a vague feeling of being &quot;off&quot;, and pixellates all curved edges. The biggest problem is that text on some of her sites is unreadable. I've checked the following:  Color profiles - it looked like it was using the default, but a cycled through a few built-ins. I could see noticeable changes to color balance, but the light greys remained the same as white. Also deleted contents of ~/Library/ColorSync/. Accessibility - my child has accidentally inverted colors before, this isn't that. No other accessibility settings seemed related to color. Display settings - Modifying brightness was also fruitless. The screen overall got brighter or darker, but still couldn't distinguish between light grey and white Rebooting - colors look fine until shortly after logging in - seems connected to user profile somehow.  Here are some images to demonstrate the issue. This is a generic color test image:  On the Mac, it looks like this (simulated with photoshop):  Any solution would be appreciated, but if there is a keyboard shortcut that can cause this, it would be the most likely explanation (8 year old says they &quot;might have rested their arms on the keyboard&quot; during a class meeting)
For $D$ a GCD domain , let $a,b,x \in D \setminus \{0\}$ , then is it true that $\gcd (ax,bx)=x \cdot \gcd (a,b)$?

I'm wonder what  mathematics is needed and how far am I in terms of mathematics background needed and how much more mathematics do I need in order to study it properly and reach my goal. My mathematics level is at calculus/Linear algebra. How to use sed to replace only the first occurrence in a file? I would like to update a large number of C++ source files with an extra include directive before any existing #includes. For this sort of task, I normally use a small bash script with sed to re-write the file.   How do I get sed to replace just the first occurrence of a string in a file rather than replacing every occurrence?  If I use  sed s/#include/#include "newfile.h"\n#include/   it replaces all #includes.   Alternative suggestions to achieve the same thing are also welcome. Benefits of Toad houses I have a few red Toads and a Toad is just hanging out in town. I see an option to buy a red Toad house, ostensibly for him. Are there any added benefits of purchasing this or are the colored Toad houses just cosmetic? I have a desktop (Ubuntu 13.04 &amp; Win 7 Home Premium) and a Laptop (Ubuntu 12.04), both having WiFi adapters. I also have a WiFi router connected to internet which both my computers can access.  I want to share files between my desktop and my laptop using WiFi (similar to Homegroup on Windows 7 but without using Ethernet cables).  How do I set-up that?  I want to share files using both OSs, if anyone have have information about sharing files with any of the OS please answer! Is empty set element of every set if it is subset of every set? This problem is from Discrete Mathematics and its Applications  My question is on 9b. I know that the sign represents an element is a member of. (from book)  I know that the O with a slash across it is the empty set which &quot;is a special set that has no elements&quot;. From , I got that the empty set is a subset of all sets, meaning that every member of the empty set(nothing) is also a member of any other set. Based on all of this, for 9b, would {0} contain the empty set because it fundamentally has the elements that consist of the empty set(nothing) or does it physically have to have the empty set? I want to copy the data folders from a previous ubuntu(14.04) partition My hard drive is a mess and I want to reformat it and do a fresh install of 16.04. My problem is I only have access to the HDD via 16.04 on a USB stick and although I can navigate to the various folders, nothing I do allows me to copy to an external hard drive. The folders are not encrypted. I also have a small swap partition - I would like to preserve the data on that too if possible.  Here's a listing of the home directories on the drive:  ubuntu@ubuntu:/$ ls -l /media/*/*/home /media/ubuntu/0e228f65-dac7-435f-828b-1eb1a6c3f29a/home: total 4 drwxr-xr-x 46 1000 1000 4096 Dec 21  2015 simon  /media/ubuntu/db79a6d1-7c6c-4d8c-822b-ba6ccd1ddecd/home: total 4 drwxr-xr-x 27 1000 1000 4096 Apr 17  2014 simon  /media/ubuntu/ebe2a6ba-9cb5-4279-8352-5082b8dd4d5e/home: total 4 drwxr-xr-x 39 1000 1000 4096 Aug  3 14:21 simon Night's Watch deserters are sentenced to death, as we've seen in the very first episode of Game of Thrones. A man dressed all in black is apprehended by Stark men and brought before Lord Eddard Stark. Lord Stark sees him as a deserter and sentences him to die (and then executes that death penalty).  However, there are men of the Night's Watch south of the Wall, on a legitimate mission or on some kind of allowed leave. For instance, we have Benjen Stark visiting Winterfell when the king and his party is there. There is also Yoren, who travels around Westeros in search of new recruits.  I could imagine that the Warden of the North (and other lords in the northern part of Westeros) would have a good idea of who would be allowed further south and whose appearance would raise suspicion. But I reckon the southern lords don't have as many visits from the Night's Watch, so they might not know who would be allowed to be there and who wouldn't.  How would lords who are rather unfamiliar with the specific brothers of the Night's Watch discern deserters from brothers sent out for some reason?  That ends my question, but there is a spoiler from the season 5 finale that continues the question a bit more:      Sam is sent to Oldtown to become a Maester, so he can replace Maester Aemon at Castle Black.  But he is riding together with Gilly (a woman!) and her baby (a baby!), which might raise a lot of suspicion from people who don't know what he is sent out to do.  What prevents southern lords of sentencing Sam as a deserter from the Night's Watch? How can I check the integrity of a downloaded Ubuntu CD? I've just downloaded a CD image of Ubuntu.

I handled the first point by saying that  i) Identity is 0, and $0\in n\Bbb Z$ and $0 \in \Bbb Z$  ii) For any $a,b \in n\Bbb Z$ $a+b = na_2 + nb_2 = n(a_2+b_2) \in n \Bbb Z$  iii) For any $na \in n\Bbb Z$, its inverse $n(-a) \in n\Bbb Z$.  For the second point, I said that all of the subgroups should be infinite, because for any finite group the largest element $a+a \notin H$, where $H$ is the potential subgroup, which is a contradiction. So $H$ must be of infinite order. For any $a \in H, -a$ should also be in $H$. The difference between any $a,b \in H$ should also be in $H$, i.e. $(a-b) \in H$. This leaves only the whole group or any group of the form $n\Bbb Z$.  Is my proof complete? Could give some examples of nonnegative measurable function $f:\mathbb{R}\to[0,\infty)$, such that its integral over any bounded interval is infinite?
