Just wondering if the [g] sound is sometimes used to link a word ending in [ŋ] and a word beginning with a vowel sound. For example, can "hang out" be pronounced as /hang-gout/?  If you know any helpful source about this inquiry, can you share it with me?  Thanks a bunch!
I'm getting into English recently and I'm a little confused by the way people pronounce a word that starts in a vowel right after a word ending in -ing.  For example:      You have to bring it up now?   I don't know if I should pronounce it as:   bring /ŋit/ brin' /nit/ bring /git/   Another example would be "I'm coming out".  Likewise, what about the ending -ang? For example:      We can just hang out and have a good time.    And to round it all up, what about a combination of the two? For example,      He got sick of hanging around waiting for you and went home.   I've been asking myself these questions for weeks.

Is there anything I can do from my side to remove this lock? geometric interpretation of $\vec v \cdot \operatorname{curl} \vec v = 0 $ There is a family of surfaces orthogonal to the vector field $\vec v \in \mathbb R^3$ iff $\vec v \cdot  \operatorname{curl} \vec v = 0 $. Now the necessity part is trivial, but the proof of sufficiency I have seen in physics textbooks, e.g. Kestin: Thermodynamics, is kind of mindless integration similar to the one usually offered to prove Poincare's lemma as in Flanders, or just asserted as in Born&amp;Wolf: Optics. Is there an intuitive and geometric interpretation of this condition that would make it obvious why its sufficiency must be true? Wizard sickness I remember in an interview, or during a Q&amp;A, Rowling stating that Wizards live longer than Muggles. This got me thinking about Wizard deaths in general, and then deaths being attributed to illness.  So, I ask, has there ever been a Wizard, that has died from something like cancer? Is there anything, even briefly mentioning a Wizard becoming ill?  And finally, are there any illnesses that are exclusive to Wizards? The latest updates (4/1/2018) make my laptop constantly crash the GUI/Unity:  (Intel Pentium su4100 processor)  syslog:  Jan  5 11:38:53 1810 kernel: [ 1850.327738] compiz[11911]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f6c7baf0c16 sp 00007ffd5ec71c60 error 4 in i965_dri.so[7f6c7b513000+82d000]   After login I end up with an empty desktop, just a wallpaper, GUI/Unity are in a crash loop:   No panel.  No dash.  Can't start a program. Launcher disappears. Sidebar disappears. System crash. Windows key not working. The key combination Alt+Tab not working.   Simply, the computer is not usable. Same for guest login. The only thing working: open up a terminal CTRL+ALT+T to examine log files.  I somehow forced  to let me log in and file the bug, but still lots of problems:   Dash not working Alt+Tab not working Sometimes windows all disappear for a few seconds     Any ideas for a solution or workaround?   UPDATE     If you have the same/ very similar problems, follow the link to my    report and mark there that you're affected too. Or file your own. Please leave a comment   if you wish, or upvote - this is a nasty problem - but an answer should   offer a fix or a workaround so users can use their computer again.

I am a new user, who has just been told to run / execute a command. The answer has some text with a grey background like this text here or  sometimes this text here.

I want to know if there is a way to switch to console mode from the boot menu.  I have an NVIDIA 1070 and every time there is an update, the GUI stops working. All I need to do is re-install the drivers; however, to do that I need to be in console mode. EDIT: I should have added more information to this question but I'll comment on all answers. In short: I've tried text instead of quiet splash I do see booting activity in text mode; however, I don't get a login screen and ctrl + Alt + F1 doesn't help because GDM keeps trying to restart. Previously I managed to kill GDM through multiple tries but is not working since the latest update. EDIT: After searching for runlevel, I've found  but I think it required me to have a running system to make changes -- please correct me if I'm wrong. Frequently when EM waves are taught, it is said that the change in electric field causes a change in the magnetic field, which then causes a change in the electric field, and so on and so forth.   But from my understanding of basic electromagnetics, it is not necessarily a changing electric field that creates a change in magnetic field, but instead an accelerating charge. and it is this charge that creates both the electric and magnetic field. Again, from my understanding, a changing magnetic field is not generated by a changing electric field, but instead just happens to always be present perpendicular to a changing electric field due to the laws of electromagnetism.   Am I wrong? Or is the "mutual generation" concept between the electric and magnetic components of an EM wave an actual thing? Upload files with HTTPWebrequest (multipart/form-data) Are there fixed size integers in GCC? On the MSVC++ compiler, one can use the __int8, __int16, __int32 and similar types for integers with specific sizes. This is extremely useful for applications which need to work with low-level data structures like custom file formats, hardware control data structures and the like.  Is there a similar equivalent I can use on the GCC compiler? How do I programmatically obtain the version in JBoss AS 5.1? Could not load 'vboxdrv' after upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 (and I want to keep secure boot) I upgrade from Ubuntu 15.10 to 16.04 and since then VirtualBox 5.0.18 isn't starting my VMs anymore. It complains that 'vboxdrv' isn't loaded. So I try to load it and get the following error:  $ sudo modprobe vboxdrv modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vboxdrv': Required key not available   I believe it is related to secure boot which I use and which I want to continue using. Actually with Ubuntu 15.10 secure boot and VirtualBox were working just fine.  Also I tried $ sudo apt-get --reinstall install virtualbox-dkms which built the kernel module successfully but didn't solve this issue.  Any idea how to get vboxdrv loaded while keeping secure boot enabled?  Update 2: Also I tried executing sudo mokutil --disable-validation. When executing this command, during the next boot I get prompted to disable secure boot, add a key or hash from disk. Since I don't want to disable secure boot, it seems that this doesn't solve my issue either. Also I want to keep UEFI activated for a parallel Windows installation.  Note: If you don't mind disabling secure boot, see  instead. Ubuntu installation does not recognize drive partitioning I have a 1TB drive and installed Windows 7 on a 128GB partition.  When I now try to install Ubuntu 11.04 it does not recognize the Windows partition but offers the complete 1TB drive to install Ubuntu on instead. It displays:    However, in the Ubuntu Disk Utility the Windows partitions are recognized.    What do I need to do in order for Ubuntu to recognize the Windows 7 partition and install Ubuntu as a dual boot?
