I have a Canon 60D, 18-55mm kit lens, and a 70-200mm f/2.8 that I use to shoot my kids sporting events. I want to replace my 30+ year old flash with a new unit. I am considering Godox and Yongnuo third party flashes as Canon are out of my price range.  I have questions about:   Trigger differences.  Should I be using RF or Optical triggering? Master/slave functionality.   Yongnuo 600EX-RT vs the Godox v860c. Any advice between the two.  There is about a $50 difference between the two.   Other considerations:   I want to get a flexible powerful flash with a range of at least 150ft. High school sports are fast action I would prefer Li-Ion batteries but AA are fine as well I would like to have a TTL radio transmitter for future use
I have been thinking of getting a flash to improve my low light photography (particularly indoors). However, there seem to be a number of different models available at similar price points (budget of INR 8,000-12,000 ~$150-250). What features and functionality should I look for to choose a suitable flash?  I'm using a Canon 550D with the 18-55mm IS &amp; 55-250mm IS lenses. Metz seems to be one of the brands easily available in India (beside the OEM flashes). Currently, I am considering the Metz 36 AF-5, 44 AF-1 and 50 AF-1, which seem to be considerably cheaper than their Canon counterparts.
How did the Swooping Evil Venom infused rain affect the magical community? I didn't see any wizards drenched in the rain at the end of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (don't recall, actually). But would the rain equally affect the wizards as it did no-maj's?   This event is something that doesn't necessarily need to be forgotten by the Wizarding community. How would they avoid being obliviated by the rain?  (They could avoid the rain by Apparating, but what about the showers and drinking water?)  This question is picking at my brain. My wife wants a 4th baby, but I don't My wife wants a 4th baby, but I don't.  We have been talking about it for the last few days (talking strongly).   I have raised points such as:   We will get less time to spend with our current kids. The age gap between the first and the last will be too wide. It will cost more money. She will be out of work longer. We will need a bigger house. And we don't even have our own house yet (we are still renting). We will have to start again. Sleepless nights, nappies, feeding, new cot, car seat, etc etc.   She says:   She feels like she is missing something. She has always wanted a large family. Things will be the same regardless of having 3, or 4 kids. She agrees that money will be tighter, but wants to push through it.   Our current kids are 9 months, 2 years, and 4 years. We are young married couple (25), and I have a fairly decent job.  What would be the pros and cons of having another child?   How can we rationally talk to the other about having/or not having another child?  And what should we do if we cannot agree? Find a function $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ that is continuous at precisely one point? Is the function $f(x) = \lim_{k \to +\infty} \tan{kx}$ a right example?  But I do not know whether this is a function at first. Is this a function?  Could you give a correct real-valued function that is continuous at precisely one point?  Thanks.

I was reading about Adamantium on the      Proto-Adamantium   This is the original Adamantium created by Dr. MacLain. Proto-Adamantium is the official name for the metal that makes up Captain America's Shield. It has never been recreated and is the absolute most invulnerable item in all of existence.    This lead me to read about      The true shield was once slightly dented by an enraged Odinforce empowered Thor, using Mjolnir, but he later reconciled and pounded out the small dent.    Was the dent caused by Odinforce or Thor's Hammer? Is Mjolnir or Captain America's Shield "the absolute most invulnerable item in all of existence"? I updated to Ubuntu 20.04. When I use the default terminal, everything is fine. But if try to use terminator, I cannot use sudo. I get permission denied. Again, only when using terminator.  How can I sudo from the terminator? I really would like to continue to use a terminator.  Edit: I just also noted that it cannot find make either. I guess it's all messed up. I'll try to uninstall it and install again I guess. I'm trying to use the Bash parameter expansions to modify the output of a command substitution or another parameter expansion. The following nested expansions work quite well in Zsh; but result in a &quot;bad substitution&quot; error in Bash: ${${PWD##*/}//trunk/latest}  or ${$(basename $PWD)//trunk/latest}  the output should be the last folder of the $PWD, replaced by latest when my current directory is trunk so /home/user/trunk should become latest Is there a Bash equivalent allowing to chain expansions without relying on variables or pipes? Or do Bash expansions only allows the input to be a string or a plain variable? Looking for a science fiction story collection about nanotechnology — included a story about anti-graffiti paint I remember reading it while in middle school in English in the United States, so the latest it would have come out was 1998. I don't remember if it was all one author, or even the same universe. These are the stories I remember:   A man finds a way to create a medicine that prevents radiation poisoning (or possibly makes someone fireproof... it's a little confused in my head) and learns that part of the problem is finding a market for it. I vividly remember the inventor telling someone to not "let the doorknob ream you" as it slams shut. A bout of graffiti artists leads to the city buying anti-graffiti paint that dissolves any other paint put on top of it. After learning the futility of trying to paint over it, the protagonist consults with a friend and learns that the anti-graffiti paint will eat away at the paint above it at a steady rate, and will even eat successive layers of the anti-graffiti paint. he uses this property to engineer an animation involving a harlequin thumbing this nose at the officials even as they try to wash it away. Some guys (I want to say a gang) go to a clinic for an illegal nanotech transformation. The viewpoint character gets turned into a woman while a friend gets turned into a dog. After roaming about in their new forms, they return to find the clinic being raided, meaning there's no one to turn them back. I think I remember something bad happening to the one transformed into a dog where the transformation continued, erasing his human thought patterns. There was also a scene where the viewpoint character submitted to being sexually assaulted by his former friends as if it was simply to be expected given his form.   I don't remember if the first or the second story was the actual first story of the collection... I want to say that those are the order that they showed up as in the book.

How to store and preserve lots of data? I have many DVDs with movies and games, they are getting old and dusty, some of them are damaged. And I have more than 300 GB of general files in my PC. I want to store and preserve all of my data and keep them for a long long time.  I want to know what is the best and more reliable storage media that I should use and... I can buy. I will copy all of my DVDs to a new media and throw all of my DVDs away. It will take a very smaller physical space.  I think that everything that I need to store is currently 800 GB.  I do not like optical discs, because they are fragile and I have lost many CDs and DVDs. Hard drives would be good, but they can suddenly stop working, and it is very expensive to recover data from a broken hard drive.  Other questions: How often will I have to copy the files to a new storage media? Is it good idea to have another copy of each file stored in another storage media?  Edit: If I put all of the movies and games in a HDD, if the HDD stops working, I will lose everything. This is how valuable they are for me: If I lose 10% of them, I will not cry, because I can get new ones, but if I lose 90%, it will be a disaster.  Edit 2: I do not think that that online storage is reliable even if I pay for it, because they may be closed or may get bankrupt. They are not from my country and it would be difficult to get the files back. Add title uniqueness to the heuristics for detecting low-quality questions This feature request is a response to  Two days ago,  suggested that we . However, given that  (hat tip ) as well as ...  262  103   ... I suggest that we take it a step further. Let's extend the heuristics for detecting—and blocking—low-quality questions to enforce unique titles, or at least flag new questions with duplicate titles automatically. We can leave the precise heuristics of detecting a duplicate title up to the Stack Overflow development team. I have no delusions about the fact that a few questions will &quot;slip through the cracks.&quot; The goal here is to be proactive about minimizing the number of duplicates, and I think that the best place to start is the existing heuristics for detecting low-quality questions. After all, duplicate question titles are bad for a number of reasons: They often indicate a question that is itself a duplicate, but perhaps just as importantly, they decrease the signal-to-noise ratio when searching for questions. I honestly can't think of any reason that duplicate question titles are helpful, unless you are asking for a solution to the same problem in a different programming language. Even then, I think that it would be acceptable to rephrase the question to say &quot;How do I do X in (insert programming language here)?&quot;  makes a good point about the potential problems with this solution:  I have a hunch that if we do that, people will find ways to circumvent it (changing case or punctuation, adding random spam), and we'll end up stuck in a an arms race.  We may get stuck in an arms race with some users, but I honestly think that many people new to Stack Overflow just don't understand the etiquette of asking questions here. If we could even convince people to rephrase their question more clearly 20% of the time, I think that it would be a tremendous boon to the community. Furthermore, remember that heuristics for low-quality questions already exist, arms race or no. Can $3p^4-3p^2+1$ be square number? Downgrading from SQL Server 2008 to 2005 How to specify password in ssh command From the terminal I type: ssh user@ip and then it prompts for a password.  Is there a way to specify the password in the ssh command itself? Let $G = (\mathbb{C} - \{0\}, \cdot)$, a subgroup $U = \{x+yi \mid x^2 + y^2 = 1\}$. Use the Fundamental Theorem to show that $G/(\mathbb{R}_{&gt; 0},\cdot)$ is isomorphic to $U$ where $\mathbb{R}_{&gt; 0}$ denotes the positive reals.  I am struggling to find the correct mapping from $G$ to $U$ that results in the the kernel being the nonnegative reals under multiplication. I'm hoping to get help with this mapping then I can show it is a homomorphism and onto and can use the Fundamental Theorem. Let $\{x_n\}$ and $\{y_n\}$ be sequences of real numbers which converge to $\ell$ and $m$ respectively. Show that  $$\lim_{n\to \infty} \frac{1}{n}\sum_{k=1}^{n}x_ky_{n+1-k}=\ell m$$  This is a problem I found in a book, it seemed to be routine, but now I can't solve it.  What I tried :     Let us take some $\epsilon&gt;0$. Now after a stage $N$, both $|x_n-\ell|&lt;\epsilon$ and $|y_n-m|&lt;\epsilon$. Now I wanted to break the sum $$\left|\frac{1}{n}\sum_{k=1}^{n}x_ky_{n+1-k}-\ell m\right|$$in two parts, one upto $N$, and other one for $N+1$ to $n$. Now we need this to be arbitrarily small. But here I am lost. I don't know how to proceed anymore. Because when I take $x_i's$ to make up a finite sum, then the $y_j's$ are there too with $j$ very large. I think this is the main idea, but unable to do anything further. Can someone help me? Thanks. How can I add a right-click desktop menu entry to create a text file to Gnome 3 in Ubuntu 16.04.02?
