TikZ: is there a better way to represent the following node content
Manual/automatic line breaks and text alignment in TikZ nodes
I would like to know where gravity gets its energy to attract physical bodies?  I know that the law of conservation states that total energy of an isolated system cannot change. So gravity has to be getting its energy from somewhere, or else things like hydropower plants wouldn't be able to turn the power of the falling water into a spinning rotor.  Just to be clear, Lets create an example:  Lets say we have two objects with equal mass close to each other. So gravity does its job and it pulls each other closer, this gets turned into kinetic energy. This is where I'm lost. According to the law of conservation energy can't be created or destroyed and the kinetic energy comes from the gravitational pull so where does the gravitational pull gets its energy.  If that energy isn't being recycled from some where else then that means you have just created energy, therefore breaking the law of conservation. I wanted to know which php version I am using so I wrote the standard script:   phpinfo();   Which gives me  PHP version 5.6.10   The correct PHP version needed for my application. When I tried in terminal:  php -i   or  php -v   It shows me:  PHP version 5.3.2   Which I don’t need. Then I tried with:  which php   It shows me:  /usr/bin/php   Now I am confused which version of PHP I am using. The files are uploaded to the hosting website and I cannot make any changes to the config files like httpd.conf or php.ini. Slow SoapHttpClientProtocol constructor What is the best approach for solving the equations of the form      $p^x = x^q$ ; where $p$ and $q$ are some constants.   Basically, I wanted to solve $2^x = x^2$ to analyze algorithms with respective growth functions. HP Easy Scan - "HP Scanner 3" will damage your computer In particular, I am referring to the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient. Would this look natural:     StackExchange is a helluva site! I found out about this site at Facebook.    Or should we use the preposition on:     StackExchange is a helluva site! I found out about this site on Facebook.    Or are both okay?   (Inspired by a ) I  here on MSO today, but it was found to have been asked .  I'm not concerned by this (better to be found by more than one user) but, I noticed that the wording in the closure statement is factually incorrect:    No it doesn't have an answer - Not even a sniff of one!  This statement, logically, should be factually accurate and reflect the existence of answers and include singular/plural references to them - or at a minimum use language that covers both scenarios.  Edit: As a result of my question,  and the bug in question has been remedied, but this question still remains valid. Aspect (simple, perfect and progressive): What are the differences? Could you please explain to me the differences between the simple, progressive and perfect aspects.  "Simple aspect" means completed action (action starts and finishes) but I don't really understand the fine details.  For example, with these sentences:     It usually rains in the fall.   He smokes 15 cigarettes a day.   I slept for a long time yesterday.     Here's what I understand: if I didn't complete sleeping I should use "I was sleeping". If it doesn't stop raining we can't say "it is finished". Is that correct?  For continuous aspect, duration is an important factor – but how?  For example:     She is wearing a jacket.   Normally "to wear" action is completed but we can use here present continuous aspect.  Another example:     She has been wearing the same jacket for 3 days.   and why can't I use continuous aspect here?     I have cleaned my room.   It means that my room is clean now. Action is finished but why can't I say "I have been cleaning room" like "They have been playing in the mud"? Action is completed but we don't care here about completed, we are caring about duration, why? QGIS Processing - Additional Creation Parameter for GdalWarp I am having a hard time getting the "Additional Creation Parameters" to work when using GdalWarp through the processing toolbox.  I am trying to set the nodata value to 0 for the output raster.  processing.runalg("gdalogr:warpreproject","InRaster.tif","EPSG:32736","EPSG:32736",10,0,"-dstnodata 0","OutRaster.tif")   Has anyone used this functionality and managed to get it to work? Maximum temperature laptop internals can handle? Cooling options? So I have a Compaq CQ50-215CA and my sister was using her laptop on her bed and I was just using it quickly to check my email. The surface of the laptop was really hot and I opened Speccy to see that the CPU and GPU temperature was 96 C. A couple months ago, my laptop was on the desk without a cooling pad and I was playing a game. Using GPU-Z back then, I had a reading of 104 C. Even with a cooling pad on a desk, running several processes/games keeps me around 88-90 C.  Is this normal for a laptop and what's the highest temperature the internals can handle? Besides a cooling pad, are there any other more effective ways of cooling a laptop? I have an intuitive scenario. Consider we have a spaceship just below the event horizon of a BH, which is merging with another black hole.  Finally, the singularities merge and we have a single black hole again.  But, in the transient stage, it is unclear to me if a timelike world-line would exist to leave the system.  I suspect, the metric is probably far too complex for an analytical solution, but in the worst case, it could be maybe solved numerically.  As far I know, black hole merges are examined mainly in an inspiral scenario. I suspect, maybe the escape is possible only if they have a hyperbolic-like orbit (i.e. there is no inspiral, but they simply collide).  Is it possible? Specifying element type for DXF creation using ogr2ogr I am trying to create a DXF from a Polygon Shapefile using ogr2ogr:  ogr2ogr -f DXF parcels.dxf parcels.shp   The problem is that the polygons are written as hatch elements.    How do I specify that ogr2ogr should create LWPOLYLINE elements (Or any other )?  I have tried this from command line and from QGIS 'save as' option with the same result.  I don't remember this being an issue in the past, but seems like it started with GDAL version 1.10.x. App keeps crashing & rendering error since update to 1.0.68 Why am I getting no power when I pedal? Yesterday when I was biking my mountain bike on level paved path, I would pedal but get no power to the wheel.  To use a car analogy, it was as if I had the clutch in and was apply gas.  It seemed to happen most often after I coasted and then went back to pedalling.  I would pedal and realize that no power was going to the wheel.  The chain was definitely on the sprockets and moving. I could change gears no problem while I had no power.  Sometimes stopping the bike and starting again would work, or just trying again.  Needless to say, I'm taking it in as I'm not mechanically inclined, but I'm hoping to learn something.  Perhaps a link to a site that explains the problem?  So my questions.   What is going on?  I have heard of something called the "freehub".  I really don't know how bikes work though, so I'm hoping for an explanation of how one can pedal and give power to the wheel and then stop pedalling and the wheel just keeps moving (without the pedals moving).   If you are on a ride, is there any emergency adjustment to make?   For what it's worth, it's an old bike.  Circa 1993 Performance Mtn Bike.  So it's not too surprising that it's falling apart.  I haven't used it a whole lot, and have tried to wash and oil it, but I probably haven't taken the care that a biking aficionado would.  Also, besides losing power after coasting, one time I was pedaling and suddenly the pedals weren't powering the wheel.  I almost went over the handlebars!  So, I definitely want to get it fixed.  I'd just like to know a little bit about what is going on.  Thanks,  Dave.  Bonus question:  If there is enough info to make a diagnosis and you have ideas on costs to fix, perhaps you could comment on whether it's worth fixing.  Like I said, it's circa 1993 and cost about $450 then.  No shocks or anything.  Just 21 speed Mtn. Bike. amsmath align environment: row spacing How can I stretch the spacing between consecutive lines in an align* environment? I have a few lines with \fracs in which both the numerator and the denominator consist of textual phrases, not math symbols, and the result looks too cluttered.  \begin{align*} X &amp;= \frac{\textit{Some text here}}{\textit{And some text here}}\\ Y &amp;= \frac{\textit{Will make everything}}{\textit{Look too close together}} \end{align*} Does there exists an entire function such that for each $|z|>C$ for some constant $C$, $|f(z)|=|z|+1$? How can I get my usual interface when opening projects created by other people? I've bougth cup models from internet.   In the ZIP I get the blend file and pressing F12 I can render the project (Do you call it project?)  But I don't see anymore the "Layout" tab, that is what I use the most.   Why and how can I go back to my usual interface?    Like in the Opening Layout:    UPDATE 1  I could open the file with the default layout, however I'm not seeing the objects in there:    UPDATE 2  How to open Collection 1? It's grayed out. Charging Li-ion batteries in parallel I wanted some opinion on my set up here, just to make sure I got the basics right.  I have a Li-ion battery charging circuit based on the MCP73113. This is designed to be a single-cell battery charger.   The battery itself (3.7V, 650mAh) comes with its own PCB with Schottky diode and current regulators as protection. EDIT: Not a Schottky diode. Current limiter and a Protection IC.  By design, they work together just fine.  I have more batteries from the same manufacturer and wanted to make higher capacity packs by putting two cells in parallel. The two cells come with their own PCB, but I only kept one of them, as I soldered their leads together. It seems to work and they are charged and discharged just like regular batteries (3.7V, now 1300 mAh).  However, not all the packs I made work smoothly and I get a failure rate of 2 in every 10 packs. They all start out normally, but occasionally when the batteries are not charged for some time, or are used up, they tend to not work anymore. So far, in only 1 pack I found the voltage to be different (both now below 2V, aka dead).  I assume my method is not the right approach to ensure 100% success rate, so I was wondering how can this be solved. All the controllers I looked into was designed for multiple cells in series, not parallel. Am I fundamentally missing something here? Black screen after installation of Ubuntu 18.04
