Can't get ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-i386. I get the message "No DEFAULT or UI directive found! boot:" After the failure on the WIN7 machine I took the exact same CD and used it on an older WIN XP 32 bit machine. The disk worked prefectly on the 32 bit machine.

What is a subnet mask, and the difference between a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and 255.0.0.0? My DSL/WiFi router provided by my ISP has an internal IP address of 10.0.0.138, the addresses provided by DHCP are in the format of 10.0.0.xxx.  Now, I want to start using static IP addresses on my local network, and I don't know what to provide for the subnet mask.  What is a subnet mask?  Should I be using 255.255.255.0 or 255.0.0.0 as my subnet mask? What is the difference? How can I shutdown my Android phone using an adb command? How do I halt an android phone using adb command? I can reboot, but I don't know how to halt.  I tried shutdown -k wait command, but it did not work. Show that the equation, $x^3+10x^2-100x+1729=0$ has at least one complex root $z$ such that $|z|>12.$ I'm a bit surprised from my US Visa. I plan to go to a conference on 3rd of April. Amazingly though, the visa expiration date is written as April 3rd.  So what does that mean. Can I enter the US on April 3rd? or should I enter one day earlier? How to make Gmail automatically label incoming emails I would like to set it up so that Gmail labels incoming mail based on which business email of mine the emails are sent to. I have two business emails that come to my Gmail account.  For instance, if someone emails me at example@firstbusiness.com, I would like the email to be automatically labeled first business. If someone emails me at my other email address (which also is forwarded to Gmail), example@secondbusiness.com, I would like that email to be automatically labeled second business.   Is there any way to do this? Just watched the 'How Big is the Universe?' TV program and it indicated that the universe is believed to be infinite in size. They used an approach involving measuring the internal angles of triangles. Or something like that anyway.  But hang on, the Universe has a known starting time and size followed by a finite time expanding at a finite speed. So surely, by definition, it cannot be infinite? I can accept it is honking big but by definition it cannot be infinite. Are they misleading me? How can I change what keys on my keyboard do? (How can I create custom keyboard commands/shortcuts?) I want to change the key bindings on some of the keys on my keyboard.  I want some to run commands and others to activate different keys.  What applications can I use to do this?      Index:       (from within System Settings)             I'm still looking for answers using dconf and any other method. Ubuntu 20.04 run ok on Lenovo ThinkPad E15 laptop? Duplicated Onedrive icon in explorer I've installed windows 10 on a new pc, with a secondary hard disk containing my onedrive folder, taken from my old pc. I've configured onedrive in order to use that folder, and it's working fine.  The problem is that when I open Explorer I can see two onedrive icons on the sidebar, both of them pointing at the same folder.  How can I remove the duplicated onedrive entry from the sidebar? If $A$ an integral domain contains a field $K$ and $A$ over $K$ is a finite-dimensional vector space, then $A$ is a field.

A function is "continuous" if it has no sudden jumps in it.  Until today, I thought these were merely two equivalent definitions of the same concept. But I've read some stuff today which seems to be claiming that this is not the case.  The obvious next question is "why?" Apparently somebody has already asked:    Several answers were given, but I don't understand any of them. In particular, Wikipedia and one of the replies above both claim that $|x|$ has no derivative. Can anyone explain this extremely unexpected result?  Edit: Apparently some people dislike the fact that this is non-obvious to me. To be clear: I am not saying that the result is untrue. (I'm sure many great mathematicians have analysed the question very carefuly and are quite sure of the answer.) I am saying that it is extremely perplexing. (As a general rule, mathematics has a habit of doing that. Which is one of the reasons why we demand proof of everything.)  In particular, can anyone explain precisely why the derivative of $|x|$ at zero is not simply zero? After all, the function is neither increasing nor decreasing, which ought to mean the derivative is zero. Alternatively, the expression  $$\frac{|x + a| - |x - a|}{a}$$  becomes closer and closer to zero as $a$ becomes closer to zero when $x=0$. (In fact, it is exactly zero for all $a$!) Is that not how derivatives work?  Several answers have suggested that the derivative is not defined here "because there would be a jump in the derivative at that point". This seems to assert that a continuous function must never have a discontinuous derivative; I'm not convinced that this is the case. Can anyone confirm or refuse this argument? How to get permanent token? I really need to get permanent token or dynamic generator. We set job in the server and this service will come to salesforce and get the data. To provide this, I created connected app, got the token from postman by myself and gave it. After a while (approximately 1 day), we faced with session id problem.   What can I do? I want to log out of Stack Overflow or any Stack Exchange site, but always it shows me logged in!  How do I log out of this site?  Note: I have yet to register; the site currently always shows my name and default email. I wish to log out so that I may start a new session! Given the galois extension $L/K$, where $L=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta, \sqrt[3]{2})$. I've already calculated that $[L:\mathbb{Q}]=6$. I'm trying to prove that the number of intermediate fields is also 6, including $L$ and $\mathbb{Q}$ as intermediate fields. I'm told that the fundamental theorem of galois theory can be useful here, but I can't find a use for it. Make account merges propagate to chat When two accounts are merged, all the posts/votes are moved over to the "master" account, and the other account ("slave"?) is deleted. The merge is propagated network-wide, so a similar thing happens on each site.  But, this does not happen to the chat user. The "slave" chat user is kept, with a 404 parent profile link. I feel that the chat user should be merged as well, re attributing all the chat messages.  Thoughts? How to design a command inquiring internally required packages? ascending/descending in LINQ - can one change the order via parameter? I know that this question is a bit old or maybe overdone, but I'm running the latest edition of Blender and when I use the Cycles engine I get really fuzzy results and I can't find a simple, non-compromising solution to the quality.  I don't know exactly what I'm doing wrong here, but I'm sure others share my frustration.  Leaving everything in default settings, I started a new project and switched to the Cycles render.  I duplicated the cube and set colors for two Diffuse BSDF shaders, then went ahead and made walls and a floor all sharing the same diffuse shader.  I made two windows to emit blue light.  The screenshot has gaps between the walls because of the setup:  I'm aware that it's considered very incomplete and many have come to terms with some amount of noise, but is this normal?  Furthermore, with default settings or not, I can't change the amount of noise produced.  Supposedly, using "progressively refine" in the rendering tab should make it refine itself indefinitely, however Cycles only counts to 10 refines and then stops, creating a render which is a pixel-perfect match of the ordinary rendering method when it's completed.  I understand that there are tricks that can be used to reduce noise, but at the cost of extra processing time and usually small quality conflicts, like blurring.  My question essentially boils down to is this Cycles' current limit? QGIS 3.0 and Qt 5.7 time schedule When will QGIS 3.0 with QT5.7 (possibly) be released as a stable and long term support version?
