I did something mildly dumb and decided I'd finally try updating my old iPod Touch 5 to the latest version of iOS (9.3.5) from the iOS 7.1.2.   Unfortunately, while it meant that some of my apps worked better, it also introduced a good 10s input lag whenever I wanted to unlock the screen or change songs more than once. I tried using a backup from before the update, but for some reason it kept the iOS version at 9.3.5, so I tried downloading 8.4.1 and updating from that .ipsw file.   The update failed with an error 3194 (presumably, 8.4.1 has exited the "signing window" I saw mentioned when I was downloading the .ipsw and thus won't update properly), and now my iPod Touch is locked into recovery mode.   Is there a solution to circumvent the update verification, or otherwise restore my iPod to its former, functional state? Or am I doomed to either an unconscionable amount of lag or buying a more recent iPod?
I'm trying to downgrade my iPhone from the current iOS to an older one, as per .  But every time I try, I always receive this error:     The iPhone could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build.     I have tried many times with and without DFU mode. Any ideas regarding this?
"By" vs "Per". Which one should I use on expressions like "P&L/Geography" or "VaR/Asset"? In the finance field, it is quite common to express some measures in relation to some grouping criteria. Some groupings can be temporal (year, month, etc.) and others like greography, asset class (e.g. a financial product), strategy (used in trading), and others.   Which one is the most appropriate preposition to apply in this kind of expression ?    "VaR per asset" or "VaR by asset" "P&amp;L per strategy" or "P&amp;L by strategy".   Is there any well defined rule behind the most appropriate use ? How to read over 4k input without new lines on a terminal? So I have a lot of data WITHOUT NEW LINES on the clipboard (it's a large SVG file on one line). I went  $ cat &gt;file.svg   then tried to paste (in Gnome Terminal), but only the first 4kB characters were accepted.  I assume this is a readline feature/limitation.  Is there a way to read from STDIN that would avoid this problem?  EDIT  Test case: Create a demo file. This one will have ~4k "=" symbols followed by "foo bar".  { printf '=%.0s' {1..4095} ; echo "foo bar" ; } &gt; test.in   Copy that into your clipboard  xclip test.in   (if you want to middle-click to insert) or  xclip -selection clipboard test.in   (if you want to use Ctrl-Shift-Insert to past it in)  Then cat &gt;test.out, paste (whichever way). Press Ctrl-D to end the stream. cat test.out - do you see "foo bar"?  On my set-up (Ubuntu 12.04, Gnome Terminal, zsh) when I paste I only see the = and I don't see foo bar. Same when I inspect test.out. Update 02/02/2019 I appreciate all the responses and help but unfortunately i must have not seen the emails stating there were responses! I am now looking into a NEST thermostat and was curious if they too, use the same connections. Lastly, looking for a quick recommendation on which WiFi Compatible therms are preferred by the memebers that respond! Thanks again your knowledge is highly appreciated! Bob  I Purchased the Honeywell WiFi Prog Thermostat to replace my Round Digital Honeywell Thermostat.

Why are there greyed / dimmed / faded questions now? I just refreshed the [iphone]-tag-site, and I'm seeing all kinds of questions with what appears to be a grey overlay (see image).

Some 30 years back, I saw a film about the son of an extraterrestrial who gets involved in a gold heist.  The main character does not initially know that he is the son of an extraterrestrial and that has special telekinetic powers. The film opens, I think, with him being in some train yard, his foot getting stuck in a switch with a locomotive approaching. He stops it using his powers intuitively, possibly passing out (not realizing what he actually did). I think his mother subsequently reveals his heritage to him.  He somehow gets hired as a bodyguard for someone planning a gold heist. I think they know his abilities and use him to steal a million US dollars. Actually, that is just a distraction, covering that they steal 30 million dollars from the same location (through the air, not sure on that part).  The last part I remember is some underground tunnels where the thieves set up to melt the gold. The main character is locked in there.  Does anyone know the title of this movie? Searching for things like "sci-fi gold heist extraterrestrial etc." did not reveal anything to me. I also had a hard time picking proper tags (sorry). How to set a domain to ip address? You can reach this IP address  (if my computer is online). I want to assign a domain to it so I wonder how is that possible when I have no DNS? I do own my domain which is ".com". My IP is static.  Thanks I have just bought a Nikon 50mm f/1.8D prime lens.  I took this picture (leg of my glasses frame on a mouse, and a LED desk lamp is on top of it) : f1.8, 1/80s, ISO 200   The purple fringing is right in the middle of the picture. Does it happen very often to this lens? Adding Arabic text to an English document Within 300 km of Tokyo: Where for flora, landscape, nature? How to solve the functional equation $f\left(x^2+f(y)\right)=y+f(x)^2$ How to solve the following functional equation:  Find all $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R} $ such that: $$ f\left(x^2+f(y)\right)=y+f(x)^2 $$ Holds for every $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$.  A friend gave it to me, probably its an olympiad question.  I started with the equation $f(f(y))=y+f(0)^2$ which seems to be quite helpful, but I couldn't do it effectively. How to solve it properly? Sorting seach results in Android app The issue is how can user sort questions for a particular search query?   For example, I would want to search questions for  and want to see newest questions first.  Right now If we write any query in Search Questions... input box then users are not able to select sorting options as search questions input box takes whole width of the screen and sorting options box gets hidden.  I have also tried to select sorting options first and then search for  but still its showing questions without considering sorting option I have selected.

(In this question it may be the case that $1\not\in D$.)    My original plan was to localize at a maximal ideal and then use Nakayama's lemma but as we don't have a $1$ our localization may not be local (in fact we need not have maximal ideals).  So I'm a bit lost as to where to go?  Thanks for any help. Rectangles around cells in table C structure initialization?
