How to compress a file into zip format without having zip package installed? Pretty much what I need to do. I tried tar -czf loremipsum.zip but the format isn't a correct zip format when I try to uncompress it on windows. I'm limited and won't be able to install the package. Is there any work around?
How can I create and extract zip archives from the command line?
While finding escape velocity, does human mass counts as the mass of Earth? Escape velocity depends upon the mass of earth. my doubt is whether human mass adds into it or not? If it add then Earth's escape velocity would be increasing! Possible Duplicate:          On Windows I am able to switch between keyboard layouts by pressing Alt+Shift.

As mentioned on :     For something that can be done so   easily by accident, there should be   the ability to undo mistakes.   I know that I have clicked several times on a comment up-vote without actually wanting to.  I would suggest being able to cancel the up-vote (maybe only for a couple of minutes or even less than a minute, no problem, as long as I can undo a miss-click). How can I add vertices to intersection of two edges? I need to put a point at the intersection of two edges. Below is a picture with red circles around where I need points to be placed. Types of things vs. types of thing eGPU Vega 56 (Blackmagic) Mac + cycles problem Hello I just got the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 (blackmagic eGPU Pro) yesterday  plugged it in to my brand new Mac mini (Mojave), it shows up in the menubar and as an alternative as a render engine,. My question is, can I use this eGPU for cycles renders? (Blender 2.80)  Very grateful for your responses. Can't select and delete an object Maven check for updated dependencies in repository Show that if $a \neq b$ and a and b are positive then $\frac{a}{b}+\frac{b}{a}$ is never an integer I'm trying to use Linq to return a list of ids given a list of objects where the id is a property. I'd like to be able to do this without looping through each object and pulling out the unique ids that I find.  I have a list of objects of type MyClass and one of the properties of this class is an ID.  public class MyClass {   public int ID { get; set; } }   What I want to do is write a Linq query to return me a list of those Ids  How do I do that given an IList&lt;MyClass&gt; such that it returns an IEnumerable&lt;int&gt; of the ids?  I'm sure it must be possible to do it in one or two lines using Linq rather than looping through each item in the MyClass list and adding the unique values into a list.  Any help in creating an elegant solution would be much appreciated! Can one attack for damage after having grappled an opponent? The grappling rules sure are... light. Supposing one has an Extra Attack:   Assuming one has successfully grappled an opponent with one's first attack, can one then perform a normal attack action with one's Extra Attack? Against the grappled opponent or any opponent within reach? Limitations on weapons (e.g. one-handed only)? Assuming one has successfully grappled an opponent with one's first attack, can one's grappled opponent (now with move 0) perform a normal attack action? Against you or against any one in reach? Do advantage and disadvantage (along the lines of restraint) come into play? Are there grappling-specific attacks for damage (e.g. choke-hold)? How can I show that if the second fundamental form of a surface is identically equal to zero, then the surface is a plane? This is my question:  Let P be a plane considered as a surface in 3-space. Show that its second fundamental form is zero. Conversely, show that if the second fundamental form of a surface is identically zero then the surface is a plane.  So far I have that the general equation of the plane is $$ax+by+cz+d=0.$$ Then $$M(u,v)=(u,v,\alpha u + \beta v + \gamma),$$ where $a,b,c,d,\alpha,\beta, \gamma$ are all constants and $c\not=0$. Then $M_u=(1,0,\alpha)$ and $M_v=(0,1,\beta)$. I know that $\vec{n} =\frac{M_u \times M_v}{|M_u \times M_v|}$ which gives $$ \vec{n}=\frac{(-\alpha,-\beta, 1)}{\sqrt{\alpha^2+\beta^2+1}}.$$ Hence, the unit norm is a constant. $$ M_{uu}=M_{uv}=M_{vv}=0$$ Hence $l=m=n=0$, so the second fundamental form is $$ ldu^2+mdudv+ndv^2=0.$$  Now I need to show the converse, but I don't know how. Please help :) I'm trying to get images in my document in two different ways:   On top of the entire page, centered On top of a single column   I tried it with both twocols and multicols. I ruled out twocols because it forces a new page every time you turn it on, because I need the abstract to be wide and the rest of the cover page to be two columns.  Here are some examples of both points (screenshot from a downloaded PDF):   I want to achieve both, but somehow I can only solve the first point with:  \end{multicols}  \begin{figure}   \centering     \includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{figure}   \caption{Dataflow pipeline of the edge detector}   \label{fig:workflowedge} \end{figure}  \begin{multicols}{2}   Is it awkward to turn off multicols, then turn it back on again?  For my second point, I've tried everything, but almost always, the image doesn't show up at all! The only way I can get it to show at all is by specifying the H placement specifier, but that places the image inside the text where I defined it, not on top of the column.  This is my best try, but it hides the image and breaks all references to ??:  \begin{figure}[t!]   \centering     \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{figure}   \caption{Dataflow pipeline of the edge detector}   \label{fig:workflowedge} \end{figure}   and I'm getting the warning:  Package multicol Warning: Floats and marginpars not allowed inside `multicols' environment!.   How can I make a figure a non-float?  I also tried the figure* environment, but that just creates an image centered on top of the page, like my first point. Hide trivial comments Line integration in complex analysis Okami is now reborn in High Definition for PS3. The graphics are obviously better, sharper and yet preserves the gist of the original game, however I can swear some of the texts have changed as well.  My PS2 console is no longer available to me so I can't test it myself, but does anyone know whether there are any changes to the game (aside from graphics) or not? Oneboxing a onebox from a different chat server generates a weird URL So if you try to onebox a onebox from a different chat server, . Basically, it generates this URL:    Now, obviously that isn't right. I've also tested this , and I'm assuming it's broken on chat.SO too. Can this be fixed? Is a path the set of points from a to b?  And is the stroke the "definition" (i.e. the color, shape, etc.) of the path?  And, how can you have a path with no stroke?  Is this only because it is a computer drawing program?  In the real world you can't have a path without a stroke can you?  If it matters, I am using Inkscape. Inequality vs. Inequation, Equation vs. Equality When talking about statements that two terms are mathematically (un-)equal (e.g., 1 = 1, 1 &lt; 2, or 1 != 2), what is the correct notion for such mathematical statements? Are there special cases w.r.t. "mixed" relations like x &lt;= y? Can some notions be used interchangeably?  It seems many online sources use "equation" and "inequality" but there is also a . Apart from personal posts in forums, I have not found any sources using "equality" in such a situation, yet. Systematically, I would think that "equation" and "inequation" would make more sense than "equation" and "inequality", but not everything (probably very few things) in natural languages have developed according to a purely logical system.  Note that this question is more general than  for that it particularly asks for the relation between the notion for equations and the one for inequalities. Equations are not part of the existing question at all. Is it possible to kill Ulfric after joining the Stormcloaks? So I've been thinking if it's possible to join the Stormcloaks only to realize Ulfric's an ass and kill him after that at some point of the game (I know you can't just go and kill him at first because he's an important NPC for the main story quests).  I don't want to join the Empire and - in my mind - what would make sense in my character's storyline would be him joining the Stormcloaks at first (because of how the game starts and my character being a Nord and having escaped with Ralof), but later realizing how Ulfric is only after power and how his fight against the Empire might even benefit the Altmers by weakening both forces (Empire and Rebellion). His Talos talk is just an excuse for his actions, as I see it. I really don't like this guy (he's a crazy racist who would do anything for power), but I also don't like what the Empire has become.  Please note that I don't really want spoilers about the plot, I just want to know if it is possible to challenge Ulfric to one-on-one combat "in the Old Nord Way" or just take the Rebellion for myself by assassinating him.
