I'm trying to send a file for a label as a PDF and the text is white. Is there a way that I can make the art board transparent so that she can see it without me saving it for web?
Is there a way to export my artwork as PDF so that it has a transparent background? Something like exporting objects only... whenever I try to save my .ai as pdf, it always comes with a full white background. If I try to save as eps, I get a chunky white background (where it has white rectangles behind the artwork only where the artwork exists, so there are transparent chunks).  If I export as png, I get an image like what I'm looking for. Is there any way to do that in a vector format?
Why didn't anybody Summon the Triwizard cup in the maze? We know that the Triwizard cup itself was Summonable. After all, Harry did Summon it in the graveyard.

What is the difference between standard i386 download and the amd64 download of Ubuntu 11.04? I am currently running the i386 on an amd machine, would my system work better with the amd64 download instead? (my machine was running Windows 7 64bit, but I neglected to look at that prior to installing Ubuntu). Could a ship warp into Borg cube and destroy it? During the Wolf-359 incident, 39 starships were destroyed, and 11,000 people were killed or assimilated.  Why didn’t one of the smaller ships warp into that one Borg cube? Doesn’t warping into it destroy anything?  Even if it just warps through without touching, one could program the navicom to self destruct while the ship is in the middle of Borg cube. Calculating $\int_{- \infty}^{\infty} \frac{\sin x \,dx}{x+i} $ I'm having trouble calculating the integral  $$\int_{- \infty}^\infty \frac{\sin x}{x+i}\,dx $$  using residue calculus. I've previously encountered expressions of the form   $$\int_{- \infty}^\infty f(x) \sin x \,dx $$  where you would consider $f(z)e^{iz}$ on an appropriate contour (half circle), do away with the part of the contour that wasn't on the real axis by letting the radius go to infinity, then recover the imaginary part of the answer to get back the sine. However here, I can't replace the sine with $e^{iz}$ in my complex function because $$\operatorname{Im} \frac{e^{ix}}{x+i} \neq \frac{\sin x}{x+i}\cdots$$  How to remedy this? I'm not sure if substituting $\sin x = \frac{1}{2i}(e^{ix}-e^{-ix})$ and solving two integrals is how this problem is meant to be solved, although I'm 99% sure it would work Where should I post my sum-up of the answers, as the OP? Sometimes as the OP (question asker), after reading through all the answers, I have my own sum-up about them. I want to tell people and all further readers about my feeling and comprehension about my desired answer and how all the answers helped towards solving my problem.  Where's the correct place to put that information? Things I've considered:   Edit into my question: No because that's not part of the question A comment under the question: I dislike that due to limited formatting in comments and its subject to removal (though the latter won't be the case) A comment under the highest-scored or the accepted answer: Still the same reason above. This is, for the time being, the place I'm posting that.

Calculationg base-resistor between microcontroller and transistor I'm curious, when connecting my 2N2222 transistor's base to a PWM output pin on my Arduino, I know the Arduino can deliver a maximum of 40mA current. The 2N2222 only requires around 5 to 10 mA on it's base to switch the collector and emitter. Now, when calculating the base-resistor under "normal" conditions where I'm merely switching it directly from Vcc, the following applies:   However, when putting in a 500 ohm or 1K resistor in (1K for 5mA) directly it works great. But putting it in between the Arduino and the transistor, the transistor doesn't switch.  I suspect thus, that the resistance is too high of the base-resistor. Therefore, we may very well not need a base-resistor.  But, according to spec, the Arduino can deliver 40mA. So, am I correct in assuming the folling: 1) I should calculate the perceived resistance that the Arduino is giving, if it goes high to 5Volt and only gives 40mA, and then 2) Subtract that from the 500ohm resistor needed to make the transistor operate optimally.  Example:    So, I'm theorising that I have to then put in a 375 ohm resistor in to make the total resistance between the Arduino and the base resistor 500 ohm.  Somehow this doesn't feel right. Keep in mind, I'm not an electronic engineer, so I might have the cat by the tail here :P Can anyone help me out with how to make Bing Picture to my Desktop Wallpaper?

How can I make crontab email me with the output of its jobs? I have MAILTO=redacted@yahoo.com.au above the jobs, but it doesn't work.  I know I need to use something like Postfix or Sendmail but for the life of me I cannot find out how to achieve this. I've searched and searched for a simple guide on setting up Postfix but they're all insanely complicated and expect you to be setting up a whole server to send and receive email and to know all the terms (like, what is a domain name for outgoing emails?).  All I want to do is have crontab email me. Why is this so difficult??

We've got a Windows 10 installation running in an environment where it can occasionally lose power and restart. However, this sometimes leads to corruption of files.  I've had a look at Windows "To-Go" but this seems to be persistent. And I've also checked out virtualisation, but that would require us to run a non-persistent Windows 10, in another Windows 10 environment.  Is it possible to install Windows 10 as a "non-persistent live CD"? So that a user will have a seemingly fresh Windows 10, but doesn't require to re-install it at each startup?

What determines who gets or becomes an MVP? This hasn't been asked yet, but what determines how or who gets an MVP award in CS:GO? After a match, there's always a little blurb that first states who got MVP first, and then a random fact (Player X got Y knife kills, Player X lasted Y rounds without dying, etc.).  Do these two factors both "factor" into getting an MVP award? Is it a set percentage of enemies you kill? Is there a priority list (ie, planting bomb, defusing, etc.)?
