Hello most helpful humans. I have read endless other threads on this subject, and typed a myriad of commands in terminal, but have caused myself more trouble than benefit it seems.  The problem is Plex, and its ability to find my external drive. Or that was the problem. Now the problem is that I can't seem to update or install anything.  Full error message is:  E: Type 'wget' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plexmediaserver   Please could somebody help me sort this out? I'm afraid I'm not much clued up on how to use Ubuntu properly - my usual approach when problems arise is to search online and copy code/follow instructions that someone else has written, which usually does whatever trick I'm hoping it will. I don't care at this point if I get Plex working (though it would be an added bonus for sure), but being able to update the computer again would be nice.   I realise it would be more helpful if this post had more information, but I'm afraid I need help knowing what to type in to get such information!  Thank you in advance for any help.   EDITS:  john@john-Inspiron-15-3552:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plexmediaserver cat: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plexmediaserver: No such file or directory    I have read the malformed line thread, but I find it really hard to understand a lot of the time. Not sure if it pertains to my issue or not. Sorry.  john@john-Inspiron-15-3552:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plexmediaserver.list wget -q https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-keys/PlexSign.key -O - | sudo apt-key add - deb https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public main
I have unistalled and reinstalled the Ubuntu Software Center as per info I found in a similar thread and I got the same response about line 91 or something like that.  I just tried to upload a screen shot but since I'm new it won't allow me to.  I also can not figure out how to cut and paste anything so I have to hand type what the error screen says, both when I attempt to open the software center and nothing happens, when I try to enter commands into the terminal to uninstall, reinstall, whatever I get the same following:  COULD NOT INTITIALIZE THE PACKAGE INFORMATION An unresolvable problem occured while initializing the package information Please report t:his bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message: 'E: Malformed line 91 in source list/etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)  E: The list of sources could not be read.,  E: The package list of status file could not be parsed or opened.   How do I report bugs?  What can be done about this.  I have searched and everything everyone says to do leads me back to the same line error message.  So, I don't know how to get to line 91 in the source list; to tell you what it says. Sorry, I'm really new to this. That is what I need is to find out how to get there and fix what it says. I would really like to NOT have to re partition my hard drive and start from scratch, so I'm really looking forward to getting this problem solved. I need to be able to install new software.
Callback animation to begin only after ALL children have finished animating So when we view reputation, there is graph view. However, it seems to be off by a day. Here's what I mean:   I'm sure 70 + 20 + 15 is not 15. Its 105, which is what we see below:   And 40 + 10 is NOT 105, unless you did  :)     Anyways 40 + 10 is 50:   So yeah. Did you do what that post on codegolf says? Devs better fix that :) If the $n^{th}$ partial sum of a series $\sum a_n$ is $S_n = \dfrac{n-1}{n+1}$, find $a_n$ and the sum.  By definition,  the sum of the series is the $\lim n\to\infty$ of it's $n^{th}$ partial sum.  $$\text{ Sum = } \lim_{n\to\infty} = \dfrac{n-1}{n+1} = 1$$  I am asked to find $a_n$. How do I do this?

Operator font in beamer/metropolis When using the metropolis theme for beamer, I get text and math in Fira Sans, except for math operators. I compile the following MWE using LuaTeX.  \documentclass{beamer}  \usetheme{metropolis}  \begin{document}    \begin{frame}     Ordinary text.     \[ a^2 + b^2 = \sin^2(x) - \mathsf{y} + \mathrm{z}  \]   \end{frame}  \end{document}   The outcome for me is that a, b, 2 and x are set in Fira Sans Light Italic, and y is set in Fira Sans Light, but sin is set in the sans font of (I guess) Latin Modern. (The z is also in Latin Modern, but this is expected behaviour from beamer.)  Unsurprisingly, I get the same result if I replace \usetheme{metropolis} with  \usepackage[no-math]{fontspec} \setsansfont[ItalicFont={Fira Sans Light Italic},   BoldFont={Fira Sans},   BoldItalicFont={Fira Sans Italic}]%   {Fira Sans Light}   I guess that this is to do with beamer's patching parts of the math fonts to match the text font (see ). However, I don't understand the font system well enough to modify this.  There was , but I've no idea how to apply that answer when using fontspec, or if this is even possible.  Is there a way to change the operator font to match the upright/sans math font (i.e., Fira Sans Light)? Are plants creatures or objects? This has occurred to me due to conflict between Fabricate and Blight. Fabricate says it can not target creatures and lists trees as example targets. Blight on the other hand can only target creatures and lists mundane normal plants as example targets.     Which of these conflicting spell descriptions is correct?    Note: It also occurred to me that plants might also be whichever one is convenient, unlikely but possible. Can we use "there is" for plural nouns?

What is the difference between these two sentences?  People say when may is used then it means that it may be cold in winters or it may not be cold in winters. In other words, may means 'not sure'.  So does that mean if can is used then it is 100% sure that it will be cold in winters? Does something like  exist for topological (eg. braided) circuits?
