How can I make the UV map coincide with the image used as texture  (see image below) and apply it to the material of the model? I seem to have a confusing UV map.  ]
I am creating a model of a glass and I would like to put a drawing on it (a png picture).  I know how to do it using Blender Render, but not with Cycles Render. Help :)
Can't move/snap Nautilus window to occupy left or right half of the 1366x768 screen - is it just me? I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with GNOME Shell. Nautilus does not want to occupy 50% (left or right) of the screen sized at 1366x768.    Other applications (such as GNOME Terminal, Eye of GNOME, Gedit) are normally snapping to the left/right half of the screen.  But Nautilus can be resized to the width lower than half of screen (I can get 650 px, which is smaller than 1366/2 = 683 px).  The first usable screen resolution seems to be 1400x1050, then goes 1440x900. But large amount of current devices .  Is it just me?     Updates: 1. standard shortcut Super+← or Super+→ do not work too. 2. I reported  which has linked upstream . 3. It does not work on GNOME FlashBack session too. How can I remove snaps without losing GUI? I want to know how to check how many snaps programs/apps I'm running. Also, how to replace them (if possible) without losing GUI? What is the reason the log transformation is used with right-skewed distributions? I once heard that      log transformation is the most popular one for right-skewed distributions in linear regression or quantile regression   I would like to know is there any reason underlying this statement? Why is the log transformation suitable for a right-skewed distribution?   How about a left-skewed distribution? Sometimes I need to write text and then pipe that text into another command. My usual workflow goes something like this:   vim # I edit and save my file as file.txt cat file.txt | pandoc -o file.pdf # pandoc is an example  rm file.txt   I find this cumbersome and seeking to learn bash scripting I'd like to make the process much simpler by writing a command which fires open an editor and when the editor closes pipe the output of the editor to stdout.  Then I'd be able to run the command as quickedit | pandoc -o file.pdf.   I'm not sure how this would work. I already wrote a function to automate this by following the exact workflow above plus some additions. It generates a random string to act as a filename and passes that to vim when the function is invoked. When the user exits vim by saving the file, the function prints the file to the console and then deletes the file.   function quickedit {     filename="$(cat /dev/urandom | env LC_CTYPE=C tr -cd 'a-f0-9' | head -c 32)"     vim $filename     cat $filename     rm $filename } # The problem: # =&gt; Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal   The problem I soon encountered is that when I do something like quickedit | command vim itself can't be used as an editor because all output is constrained to the pipe.   I'm wondering if there are any workarounds to this, so that I could pipe the output of my quickedit function. The suboptimal alternative is to fire up a separate editor, say sublime text, but I really want to stay in the terminal. I am trying to pass a variable into jq like this '.Linux.date.$var' so far I have tried quoting them by name which is working fine. But I want to use variable to call them.  I have this, which is working fine  exectime=$(date -d now);     cp $check_exec_history $check_exec_history.tmp     jq --arg key1 true --arg key2 "$exectime" --arg name "$name" '.Linux.script_executed.first = $key1 | .Linux.date_executed.first = $key2' $check_exec_history.tmp &gt; $check_exec_history;      rm $check_exec_history.tmp;   I want to get to this, but not working:  name=first; exectime=$(date -d now); cp $check_exec_history $check_exec_history.tmp jq --arg key1 true --arg key2 "$exectime" --arg name "$name" ".Linux.script_executed.$name = $key1 | .Linux.date_executed.$name = $key2" $check_exec_history.tmp &gt; $check_exec_history;  rm $check_exec_history.tmp;   I came this far: using this answer  But I am not sure where I am doing mistake.  name=first; exectime=$(date -d now);     cp $check_exec_history $check_exec_history.tmp     jq --arg key1 true --arg key2 "$exectime" --arg name "$name" '.Linux.script_executed.name==$name = $key1 | .Linux.date_executed.name==$name = $key2' $check_exec_history.tmp &gt; $check_exec_history; rm $check_exec_history.tmp; Let $L$ be a linear operator on a complex vector space $V$, how to show that eigenvalues of $L^\dagger L$ are positive? I guess this might be a statement taught in a functional analysis class or an advanced linear algebra class? How to make a table from two lists? I don't see advantages of using events over delegates, other than being syntactical sugar. Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but it seems that event is just a placeholder for delegate.  Would you explain to me the differences and when to use which?  What are the advantages and disadvantages? Our code is heavily rooted with events, and I want to get to the bottom of it.  When would you use delegates over events and vice versa? Please state your real world experience with both, say in the production code. Parallel website running a copy of my original website We have been working on a gaming website. Recently while making note of the major traffic sources, I noticed a website that I found to be a carbon-copy of our website. It uses our logo, and everything else the same as ours, but with a different domain name.   Their domain name is not however pointing to our site because at several places the links are like: carbonccopy-website/our-links. This website even has links to some images as: carbonccopy-website/our-images.   How could they have done that, and what can I do to stop it? How did the AT-ATs get to the surface of Hoth? I'm curious how these beasts got down to the surface of Hoth.    Did the Galactic Empire land them in big ships, if so which ones? Let $X \sim Bin(n,p)$ show that $X/n \nsim Bin()$ Let $X \sim Bin(n,p)$   Part A.  Show that the argument      "Then $X/n \sim Bin()$ with $E[X/n]=p$and $Var[X/n]=pq/n$"    is false.   My book says we can prove this result using a moment generating function. But to me it makes no intuitive sense: We have Bin-distributed RV $X$ and if we rescale it with $1/n$ of course it will be Bin-distributed.  And we know from standard formulas that $E[aX]=aE[X]$ and $Var[aX] = a^2Var[X]$ so I think the argument is correct.   (For full disclosure, the argument we should falsify according to the book is "Let X be a binomial random variable with mean np and variance np(1−p). Show that the ratio X/n also has a binomial distribution with mean p and variance p(1−p)/n." But I think the argument is correct. )    Ok, now I get part A. Here is Part B. Prove it using the moment generating function of $X/n$.   Attempt: I get $$m_X(t)=E[\exp(tX/n)]=(m_X(t))^{1/n}$$ Can a countable set contain uncountably many infinite subsets such that the intersection of any two such distinct subsets is finite? Can a countable set contain uncountably many infinite subsets such that the intersection of any two such distinct subsets is finite? back-up: which patitions to back-up before upgrading/reinstalling I have Ubuntu13.04 on my laptop. I have to upgrade it to the next release or else I would install a fresh release after deleting my current system.  I have already installed and configured my current system a lot and I can't take the burden of doing it all over again if I install the next release. Now I would like to know that what all back-ups are required to be taken beforehand so that I would recover all my files/installations/configurations etc. In other words I should have everything on my new system (simply by restoring from back-ups) that I possess currently.  My current system has /, /boot, /home &amp; swap partitions which were created by me when I had freshly installed the O.S. How to prove whether a matrix has rank $1$ If $u$ $∈ \mathbb R^{m \times 1}$ and $v ∈ \mathbb R^{n \times 1}$ how do you show that the $(m \times  n)$ matrix $uv^T$ has rank $1$? Would providing an example be sufficient to prove it? Can you break up your Attack action for a bonus action? You can do it to move:     If you take an action that includes more than one weapon attack, you can break up your movement even further by moving between those attacks. For example, a fighter who can make two attacks with the Extra Attack feature and who has a speed of 25 feet could move 10 feet, make an attack, move 15 feet, and then attack again. (PHB 190)   It would be necessary for the Great Weapon Master feat:     On your turn, when you score a critical hit with a melee weapon or reduce a creature to 0 hit points with one, you can make one melee weapon attack as a bonus action   As a level 17 Fighter, if I can not place a bonus action between attacks, there are two possibilities:   I have to wait until I finished all 4 attacks of the action, to make another attack as a bonus action the bonus action attack is wasted unless the kill or crit happens on the 4th attack   So can I take a bonus action in the middle of the attacks of an action? After a company has issued shares, why should it care if the value of the shares fluctuate? Since the shares are now publicly traded, if the value fluctuates, that is strictly a transaction between buyer and seller, none of whom are directly related to the company. E.g. if I sell X an iPhone for $100, why should I care if X is selling the iPhone to Y for 1 dollar or 1000 dollars? I have got my $100, so I need not bother. No? Is there a word to describe someone who tends to disagree with others only to upset them? What's the word to describe someone who acts arrogantly and always disagrees with others unreasonably in order to upset people around him/her?  [I'm not looking for adjectives like unpleasant, annoying, unfriendly, rude, I'm looking for a more specific term like opinionated, didactic, loquacious, gregarious ]  I think I'd come across it before but I've forgotten what it is.. What is the best way to convert seconds into (Hour:Minutes:Seconds:Milliseconds) time? Is it possible to animate the speed of a strip? I want to accelerate the speed of a video and decelerate some seconds before it ends. I wonder if it's possible to do it into the video editing. I know how to increase the speed of a strip but, what I need is a trasition between normal speed and fast speed. When writing dates in prose in the dmy format (29 March 2014), is the correct preposition "in" or "on". I'm seeing it with "in" , but that construction is foreign to me.     It was released in 29 March 2010 on Steam for Microsoft Windows, and in 25 March 2010 on Xbox Live Indie Games for the Xbox 360.    "On" would seem to make more sense, from what I know. Verdict?
