I believe that the question title describes it all... but I just bought 2 brand new 2560x1440 monitors and I need to make use of my NVIDIA GeForce 680m card instead of the Intel HD Graphics 4000 card. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I have a Dell N5110 laptop with integrated Nvidia GeForce GT 525M and an Intel HD Graphics 3000 card; My problem is the default card is the Intel one, and it provides a very bad performance with Windows 8. So can I force to use the Nvidia one all the time including "Desktop Windows Manager" ?

Last Logon Time of All Users - RDP server not on a domain Run a command that is shadowed by an alias Let's say I have the following alias in bash - alias ls='ls --color=auto' - and I want to call ordinary ls without options. Is the only way to do that is to unalias, do the command and then alias again? Or there is some nifty trick or workaround? Is temperature in vacuum zero?

When will data.SE get updated data? promised that data.SE would &quot;soon&quot; get live data:     I realize it's a long weekend, but given that data.SE is now over 2 months out of date, it would be nice if this was finally rolled out. Maybe I'm just hearing the wrong comments, but it seems that Slytherin is considered a dark house by almost everyone.  I know when both reading the books and watching the movies, I always had a feeling of foreboding when there were a number of Slytherin house members around or the time when Harry and friends went into Slytherin and felt this feeling was emphasized by the writing and film directing.  We hear very little positive about Slytherin (other than the repeated line that Harry would be a great wizard if he went in Slytherin) and there really isn't a list of great wizards who were in Slytherin House.  Even in the movie Deathly Hallows (I can't check the book - I loaned it to my sister 3 weeks after it was published and haven't seen it since!), McGonagall specifically asks Filtch to lead all the Slytherin students into the dungeon while Hogwarts is under siege by Voldemort.  She doesn't specify that any Slytherin students remain behind to help fight.  Is this intentional?  Did JKR intentionally create a bad reputation and not present any counter-examples so we'd believe all of Slytherin was bad?  Most characters in the Potter-verse are complex.  While we can admire James and Lily Potter, we also see how James teased and taunted Snape, showing us a harsh side of James, and we see that there is good in Snape.  We even see complexity in Voldemort as a villain who is mixed-blood, but hates those of mixed blood and wants purity for all witches and wizards.  With all the complex characters, it seems odd that there is essentially nothing to redeem the House of Slytherin - which is not just one character, but is a group represented by a number of characters.  But yet it seems as if it's presented, in both books and movies, as dark and full of schemers and bad people.  Are there indications, and especially more than a few or just tiny ones, that there are a fair number of good witches and wizards in Slytherin? Issue with 'StringVar' in Python Program Outlook from time to time makes an operation 'Send and Receive.' This can sometimes be quite slow and Outlook hangs while this is done.    Is is possible to set different intervals for different mail accounts (if user has multiple accounts configured within Outlook, e.g., main Exchange account and one or more IMAP accounts) If yes (or even if only for some [e.g., IMAP accounts], where in the settings it can be configured?  (e.g., Outlook 2007) Security Review - CRUD/FLS Checks for every SOQL Query I know this sounds like a standard question, so please bear with me.  Recently our Security Reviews fail due to CRUD/FLS violations. The highlighted codelines include almost every SOQL Query in the application.  Our approach is usually as follows:   In case of displaying data on VF pages we either use sObjects fields or use the platform methods to check the accessibility of the fields In case of domain logic triggered by the user (e.g. by clicking a button on a VF page) we have a helper class that checks every field to be updated before doing the DML operation.   Up until recently this approach has worked fine (and passed pervious Security Reviews). As mentioned above the latest Security Review results seem to require us to check every field in a SOQL query for accessibility even if it is never displayed back to the user.    Let's suppose the following program flow as an example:   Query an object with some fields Perform some modification on said fields Perform an update on the sObject to save the modification using a helper class which checks for the required CUD/FLS rights for the modified fields   As I see it there is no need for checking field accessibility in step 1 in that case (since nothing is displayed back to the user and the dml operation is already protected). Is that correct or am I missing something? So is it really required to do an accessibility check for every SOQL Query in the code?  Another question would be how to handle background operations in that case like data purging. These have either to be running in system mode (which causes issues during the Security Review) or require the job to be started by a user with the appropriate access rights (which can be error prone and is not that user friendly). Is there any best practice regarding that.  Unfortunately I could not find a question targeting exactly that issue. Most of the questions I have found are related to how to perform that check (like  or ). So please apologize in case the question was already answered (I would really appreciate a link to the answer then).    Thanks for your time and help.  Mathias Should I keep 32bit or 64 bit Windows 10 on my x64 based Intel Atom Z3735F cpu on 2gb ram non-upgradable laptop I have an Acer Aspire Switch 10 SW5-012 detachable notebook which has 2GB of RAM based on an x64 based processor. I got it with a 32 bit version of windows 8 but upgraded to windows 10 recently. But before I do anything else, I was considering if I'd be having Better performance with the 64 bit version of windows 10. Would it make my notebook perform better since it's based on an x64 based Intel Atom Z3735F? Or should I just stick to the 32 bit version of windows 10? I'm using leaflet to display a map.

Why do electrons occupy the space around nuclei, and not collide with them? We all learn in grade school that electrons are negatively-charged particles that inhabit the space around the nucleus of an atom, that protons are positively-charged and are embedded within the nucleus along with neutrons, which have no charge. I have read a little about electron orbitals and some of the quantum mechanics behind why electrons only occupy certain energy levels. However...  How does the electromagnetic force work in maintaining the positions of the electrons? Since positive and negative charges attract each other, why is it that the electrons don't collide with the protons in the nucleus? Are there ever instances where electrons and protons do collide, and, if so, what occurs? I know some countries such as UK has the steering wheels of their cars on the right side. But as we can see, most of the Europian countries uses it at the opposite side. Since I used to drive a car with left-steering wheel I found it impossible to drive a car with right-steer!
