I've never used the python console before so I only know  commands from the documentation that I've looked up. But I've read that it can be a lot faster than just pressing ctrl+F12 because it doesn't need the GUI.. or something. I looked in other places as well but my brain started to melt from this programming nightmare thing. I also have multiple scenes that needs rendering, so if I could do them one after another, it would be a plus. So if someone could show a command that let's me render my animation(s) in the compositor from the command line, it would be most appreciated!
I would like to be able to render several files one after the other, when I am not using my computer, e.g. at night. Is there a way of doing this?
What are useful websites for scouting GIS related jobs? When running apt-get -y install &lt;packages ...&gt; on Ubuntu 10.04 I would like apt-get (or aptitude if that makes it easier) to not prompt me when installing additional dependencies (behavior of -y as I understand it) and but not prompt me about overwriting configuration files, instead assume to keep the existing ones always (which is usually the default). Unfortunately --trivial-only seems to be the inverse of -y and not affect the prompt that is shown, according to the man page.  In particular packages auch as samba, nullmailer, localepurge and lighttpd have forced me to interact with the terminal, even though the whole procedure was scripted and meant to be non-interactive. How can I set mouse sensitivity, not just mouse acceleration? Is it safe to have laptop turned on 24/7? I have an old HP dv7-7210sp laptop and I want to use it as a server. Is it safe to have it turned on 24/7? The server will be used with Nextcloud to backup my data.  Should I remove the battery from the laptop or keep it as a backup power source?  Also, is it safe to run HDD 24/7 or should I enable APM so it spins down after some time of inactivity?  Can the laptop burn if I leave it running? How do I change JPanel inside a JFrame on the fly? To put it simple, there's a simple java swing app that consists of JFrame with some components in it. One of the components is a JPanel that is meant to be replaced by another JPanel on user action.  So, what's the correct way of doing such a thing? I've tried  panel = new CustomJPanelWithComponentsOnIt(); parentFrameJPanelBelongsTo.pack();   but this won't work. What would you suggest? Validate date format in php What would be a good term for continuous testing post-deployment? I am a history teacher and I like to make my own maps (I can never find exactly what I want).  I am using QGIS 1.8 and .  I want to reproject their cross-blended hypso rasters into projections that are more familiar looking to my students, like Lambert Conic Conformal.  I have tried changing the crs for the whole project, and the warp and assign functions from the raster menu, and changing the crs for the raster layer itself.  None of these seem to work properly - the resulting maps are unrecognizable and extremely large (file size).  I feel like I am making some kind of basic mistake but I don't know where to begin with this.  Any help would be appreciated. Why does copying the same amount of data take longer if spread across many separate files? I noticed that copying 24Mb worth of data from one folder to another took about 30 seconds because (I'm assuming this is the reason) it was over 1,000 separate files. Copying 24Mb shouldn't take so long. Why does the number of files make a different?  I'm running Windows 7 on a MacBook (4GB ram, Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P7450 @ 2.13GHz, 32-bit Operating System)  EDIT: NTFS is the file system used on the drive Two electrons, or an electron and a proton, interact with each other because of the Coulomb potential, which can also be seen in the Schrödinger equation (which is the equation that describes the motion for elementary particles).  But how do an electron and a photon interact? Why can a photon kick up an electron to a higher atomic orbital, or why is a photon emitted when an electron jumps down to a lower orbital? A photon do not have any charge, so the interaction cannot be caused by the Coulomb potential. So what is it that causes the interaction, and how does that affect the Schrödinger equation? (Or well, the relativistic version of the Schrödinger equation, since we're dealing with photons.) What causes "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Neither BindingResult nor plain target object for bean name 'command' available as request attribute"? I'm sure everyone is familiar with the Ship of Theseus paradox, basically "If you replace parts of a ship over time until none of the original ship is left, is the end product still the same ship?"  I just read pop philosophy books, so spare me if this is an idiotic question, but could this be applied to the Brain and consciousness? If you were the take individual atoms/neurons, and somehow replace them with its exact copy one at a time, how would the person experience that?   I don't think there would be an interruption of consciousness, but at the end it's a completely separate (but identical) brain from the one you started with. Exactly as if you had just cloned the whole thing, right? But without interruption.  What interests me is the gradual transition of consciousness here, is it possible to know how that would  work?  I think I remember hearing people argue similarly for both the existence of a transcendent soul and also AI consciousness. And the only other discussion I found of this was on a flat earth forum, so I don't know what to make of that.   I hope I articulated my question clearly. Thank you! Prove that $\sum_{r=1}^nr(r+1)=\frac{n(n+1)(n+2)}{3}$ using induction $$\sum_{r=1}^nr(r+1)=\frac{n(n+1)(n+2)}{3}$$  could you help me with how exactly I work this out? Active vs passive voice with inanimate object as the subject I have asked the  in ELL Stackexchange forum. There all the answers and comments I received was really helpful, but still I was looking for something more. So I have decided to ask this same question here also.   I have seen some sentences like this -         The film was announced to be released on this coming Friday.   The film was announced to release on this coming Friday.      Both the sentences are used, and I know they are interchangeable and does bear the same meaning. But I have some doubt about the second sentence - why is it "to release", when the film cant release itself.   Some other sentences of similar structure that arises my confusion -         The product sells well.   The book reads well.   The glass broke.      The sentences are understandable, but in each of the sentences the subjects can't perform any job, as they all are inanimate object. The verbs are active, but they acts like they are used as passive.  Now my question is how to decide which verb to use this way and which not? Can a probability distribution value exceeding 1 be OK? I have proved in earlier exercises of this book that $\sqrt 2$ and $\sqrt 3$ are irrational. Then, the sum of two irrational numbers is an irrational number. Thus, $\sqrt 2 + \sqrt 3$ is irrational. My first question is, is this reasoning correct?  Secondly, the book wants me to use the fact that if $n$ is an integer that is not a perfect square, then $\sqrt n$ is irrational. This means that $\sqrt 6$ is irrational. How are we to use this fact? Can we reason as follows:  $\sqrt 6$ is irrational  $\Rightarrow \sqrt{2 \cdot 3}$ is irrational.  $\Rightarrow \sqrt 2 \cdot \sqrt 3$ is irrational  $\Rightarrow \sqrt 2$ or $\sqrt 3$ or both are irrational.  $\Rightarrow \sqrt 2 + \sqrt 3$ is irrational.  Is this way of reasoning correct? Find the last $2$ digits of $$\large7^{7^{7^{10217}}}$$   So far I have: $17\cdot 601=10217$ and $7=7 \pmod{10}$. Any help greatly appreciated. How do I solve the partial differential equaiton  $u_{t} = (u_{x})^{-1}$  subject to the conditions $u(t,x) \geq 0$ and $u(0,0) = $0. Use the separation Ansatz $u(t,x) = f(t)g(x)$.  The inverse in confusing me Abstract, Interface, Classes OH MY - Question on Approach Example of a finitely generated faithful torsion module over a commutative ring Can a finitely generated module $M$ over a commutative ring have $\operatorname{Ann}(x) \neq 0$ for all $x \in M$ while $\operatorname{Ann}(M) = 0$?  It's not difficult to show that there is no such module if the ring is a integral domain. For general, I guess the answer is yes. But I failed to find a desired example.
