I'm new to blender. I have a version 2.90 and I  wanna apply the texture to my building model. But I can't do it is there anyone how to create a texture or import it from anywhere and then apply? I know it's a dumb question but don't mind. Everyone should help each other!
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 :)
Is it possible to find a smooth function $p$ such that $$p(x)=0 \text{ if } x\le -1$$ $$p(x)=0 \text{ if } x&gt; 0$$ $$0\le p(x) \le 1 \text{ if } -1&lt;x&lt;1$$ $$p(x) = 1 \text{ if } -\frac{1}{2}\le x \le \frac{1}{2}$$ Hint: The following function has continuous derivatives of all orders $$f(x) = 0 \text{ if } x\le 0$$ $$f(x) = e^{-\frac{1}{x^2}} \text{ if } x&gt;0$$  My thought: Considering the left-half of the function $p$, I tried something like $e^{-\frac{1}{\tan^2(x\pi)}}$. The shape looks good but I am not sure about the smoothness at $-1$ and $-\frac{1}{2}$. For $x=-1$, since $\tan$ is infinitely differentiable so we have smoothness there. But for $x=-\frac{1}{2}$, I am not sure about the smoothness after &quot;gluing&quot; with $y=1$. Solder new RAM in a 2015 Retina MacBook Pro I know that the new rMBPs have no "user-serviceable" RAM. But is it possible to solder a new RAM chip onto a 2015 rMBP? Given that the technician doing this is able to install the new chip without damaging anything, would it work?

I used which to tell the location of a runnable file. For example, which pwd returns /bin/pwd. However, I found which alias or which compgen etc returns nothing.   What are commands like alias? Aren't they executable files on my Linux? I am using bash 4.3 on Ubuntu. I accidentally disabled my admin account.  After I login to another account I found I can not get admin rights, because all admin accounts on my computer are disabled.  I clicked on 'run as administrator' but only see a smart card choice (all the admin accounts are disabled so no choice provided)    I don't want to re-install my OS, help!    Details:  I have account A on my computer.    I got a new computer so I want to give the old one to my mother.    Creating a new user account B for her and disable account A.    Logout and restart.    Successfully login B, now I found I could not get admin rights because no account choice is provided.    More informations about my machine:  OS is Windows 10 and my admin account is a Microsoft Account.  I have an arch-linux installed on my computer and dual-boot it using GRUB, so maybe I can not use safe mode.

Solving multiple congruences by CRT = Chinese Remainder Theorem Replace non-numeric with empty string Quick add on requirement in our project.  A field in our DB to hold a phone number is set to only allow 10 characters.  So, if I get passed "(913)-444-5555" or anything else, is there a quick way to run a string through some kind of special replace function that I can pass it a set of characters to allow?  Regex?

Orphaned tag wiki edits have broken activity entries INACTIVE_OWNER_OR_USER I am travelling form Delhi (DEL) to San Francisco (SFO), I have to make a connection flight in Vienna that would take me to Frankfurt (FRA). My flight to SFO is from FRA, I have one ticket for entire journey and the flights are operated by Lufthansa or its subsidiaries.  Do I need a transit visa? My flight arrives at Vienna international airport and leaves from the same, and for second leg it arrives at Frankfurt international airport.  I asked this question as an addendum to my  but was advised to make a new post.  I hold Indian passport and valid US visa. Using ArcMap 10.0, I am working on a map that shows many villages. Each village has a name attribute that I want to use for a label, but in some areas there are so many villages that not all can be labeled. I am using the Maplex label engine and have not checked the "Never Remove (allow overlap)" box.  I am quite happy that not all village names are displayed as this would be way too much. And it is ok that Maplex chooses which labels to display, as I have no way to know which village is more important than another one. This also means that I can't base the labeling on a field such as population or something else, even though that would be less random.  However, I would also like the village points that are not labeled to similarly not be displayed. I think it unlikely that someone would want to see the point without knowing the name of the village. If all points are shown, it is also difficult to tell which point a name label goes with in crowded areas. So instead of choosing just labels not to be shown, I also want the computer to chose features not to be shown.  To give you a better idea on what I mean:    Is there a way to make these features/points not draw if their label is not shown? Is there any way to accept only numeric values in a JTextField?

This restriction lead me to a non-comment like :     @MiMo - seem my previous comment (Only one @ user per comment)   Which left me wondering why Stack Overflow is blocking me from notifying two users of a response.  I am sure there is a reason for this, can some one share it with me? Why does "Size on disk" vary when "Size" does not with the same set of files?
