Updating to windows 8.1 enterprise edition I have a windows 8 enterprise edition. I want to update it to windows 8.1. As the standard procedure says to open store and in store choose windows update but I am not finding any the windows update tile. Is there any patch to apply before I check for update?  Please tell me how to upgrade.
Update Windows 8 Enterprise to Windows 8.1 Enterprise KMS activation So it is shown that volume license packages of Windows 8, like Pro and Enterprise, are unavailable for upgrading.  I received a link last night to download the Windows 8.1 Enterprise 90-day Evaluation, but it will replace my current Windows 8 Enterprise version.  Is it known when these versions will become available for upgrade? I've been waiting patiently for weeks to get this upgrade.  Thanks.
Get Edge / Vertex / Face from mouse position How do I split a string so I can access item x? For every generation of Excel I can remember (including 2010, which I'm using now), Excel's "Auto Size Row" features sometimes fails to actually auto size a row when the cell contains wrapped text. When it works properly, all the text is revealed and there is no additional space below the last line of text. When it fails, it adds extra space below the text. To make matters worse, what you see is not always what you get, i.e., text that appeared okay on screen gets cut off when it's printed. You also get different sizing depending on whether you are zoomed in/out or at actual size.  Simple test case:  Why is there a one-line gap after the text in cell A1 but not in A2?  (To reproduce: set width of column A to 17.14 (125 pixels), text wrap on, and cell alignment top.)  (I double-checked that I applied Auto Fit Row Height to both rows. Zoom level is 100%.)    Is there any known remedy for this without resorting to manually adjusting the row heights (which is not practical for more than a handful of rows)? input() error - NameError: name '...' is not defined The first and (the) second chapter(s) are difficult - which is correct?

The first and the second chapters are difficult.   The first and second chapters are difficult.   The first and second chapter are difficult.      I believe #1 &amp; #3 are correct, while #2 &amp; #4 are incorrect.  But when seeing the answers to the Quora question , I wonder why they say #2 is correct. What word could describe an operation of either importing or exporting?  X is to import and export as migration is to immigration and emigration.  Porting isn't the word I'm looking for, I don't think, but that's what I'm getting at. Cheers! What are the restrictions on the use of Slayer's Prey? In the recent book Xanathar's Guide to Everything, there are some subclasses/archetypes added for Rangers, among them the  (p. 43), which gives some specific helpful features. Hunter's Sense  At 3rd level, you gain the ability to peer at a creature and magically discern how best to hurt it. As an action, choose one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. You immediately learn whether the creature has any damage immunities, resistances, or vulnerabilities and what they are. If the creature is hidden from divination magic, you sense that it has no damage immunities, resistances, or vulnerabilities. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.  The limitations on use are clearly spelled out. Slayer's Prey  Starting at 3rd level, you can focus your ire on one foe, increasing the harm you inflict on it. As a bonus action, you designate one creature you can see within 60 feet of you as the target of this feature. The first time each turn that you hit that target with a weapon attack, it takes an extra 1d6 damage from the weapon. This benefit lasts until you finish a short or long rest. It ends early if you designate a different creature.  So from this, I would interpret it as it being able to switch from creature to creature at will, but there is no guidance as to what happens if the creature under the mark dies, or if you can carry it (so to speak) from encounter to encounter. Is there a limitation on the use of Slayer's Prey in the wording that I am missing? Or is this a basically a multiple use feature? (i.e., you can designate any creature as a bonus action, with no limitations on uses per day)? The extra d6 seems a little overpowering at lower levels, and somewhat meh at higher levels. FWIW, the GM basically allowed it as multi-use for the session, and was going to also try to find clarification. How do I install Ubuntu Server (step-by-step)? Can I run out of disk space by creating a very large number of empty files? It is well-known that empty text files have zero bytes:    However, each of them contains , which according to my research, is stored in , and do use space.   Given this, it seems logical to me that it is possible to fill a disk by purely creating empty text files. Is this correct? If so, how many empty text files would I need to fill in a disk of, say, 1GB?    To do some checks, I run df -i but this apparently shows the % of inodes being used(?) rather than how much they weigh.

Book series where they collect either stones or gems I'm looking for a fantasy book I read about 10 years ago. I don't remember a lot of it, but there are a few things I still know:   The setting was in medieval times. There was no traveling dimensions. I can't recall whether there was magic or not. It wasn't on Earth, but on some invented world. I believe it was a trilogy, with a focus on the son of some nobility. The goal for the characters was to collect a certain number of stones or gems (I believe there were 5 of them), all in certain colours. Every stone has a certain power attached to it. I believe it started out with one or two characters, but the group grew and every character had a certain colour stone at the end. What is important about the gems is that they are unique. It's not part of a bigger magic system, but they are artefacts from somewhere.   There are some minor incidents I can recall vividly:   They build up a fellowship with some stereotypical fantasy builds: an old school fighter, a minstrel, a female archer and probably more. At one point, they mention that if one of the guards in a country falls asleep on duty, he will be kept awake by his garrison/brothers in arms for seven days. At some point the minstrel falls asleep, and the old fighter teaches him how to stay awake. They travel through a forest full of leeches and other insects to reach one of the stones. Also, I seem to recall there was a member of an underground evil organisation among the nobility, who tried to poison someone and were able to do that because they built up an immunity to the poison.   Does anyone has a clue what this series might be?   Suggestions by kind people, but not what I'm looking for, are:   The Seventh Tower Deltora Quest Diadem Westria Sword of Heavens series I've found ,  and  which are releated to my question, but no longer seem to apply since Drupal 8.1 and the deprecation of .  Also popular guides such as  appear to no longer apply as they also mention composer manager.   The other solution opposed to composer manager, alter the core composer.json file feels like too much core hacking and would probably break with every Drush update of Drupal core(?).  More specifically, I am attempting to update  from Drupal 7 to 8. I have created my composer.json file as follows:  {   "name": "drupal/views_vcards",   "description": "Allows creation of vCards using the fields provided by the Views module.",   "type": "drupal-module",   "license": "GPL-2.0+",   "homepage": "https://drupal.org/project/views_vcards",   "require": {     "maennchen/zipstream-php": "0.3.*"   } }   But if I put a composer.json file in my module folder, how do I make Drupal aware that that file is there, and how do I make sure the required zipstream-php library is downloaded?  Simply running composer update from the Drupal root does update a lot of Drupal dependencies, but it does not include the composer.json files that are in the modules folders. I also don't assume I should be calling composer install from inside all modules with dependencies.  How do I make Drupal aware of a module's dependency without using composer manager and/or hacking core?  UPDATE:  The  appears to have support a wildcard path:  {     "require": {         "wikimedia/composer-merge-plugin": "dev-master"     },     "extra": {         "merge-plugin": {             "include": [                 "composer.local.json",                 "extensions/*/composer.json" // &lt; ---- THIS LINE             ],             "require": [                 "submodule/composer.json"             ],             "recurse": true,             "replace": false,             "merge-dev": true,             "merge-extra": false         }     } }   Why doesn't core merge modules/*/composer.json, that would solve everything right?  Update 2:  THe reasoning for not supporting this is covered in  (which also has been quiet for some time now). How to Mount Guest DOS OS with HOST OS.?

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.

I used to say "sharp sign" to refer to the # sign.   Today a friend told me that the correct term is number sign or hash sign or even just hash.  What is the difference between these options and what's the correct usage of the names for this sign?
