Boot stuck at logo screen after upgrading to 14.10
How do I get past the "do not enter" traffic sign that stops me from installing "Sierra" instead of "High Sierra"?  I booted into rescue mode and deleted the original "High Sierra" installation, but booting from the USB stick with the "Sierra" installer on it still gives me the "no". Why not use "which"? What to use then? I am writing a document for which I need the margin to be exactly as follows: left, right, top and bottom text margin all equal to 1in, distance from bottom of the paper to page number equal to 0.75in (I don't have any footnote or header to set).  I tried to use the fullpage package in LaTeX but it does not give me the 0.75in to the page number. Is there a way to force that? I tried to set manually the margins for a 8.5x11 paper but I am not succeeding.    I tried but after writing:  \documentclass[PhD]{class_file} \usepackage[margin=1in,footskip=0.25in]{geometry}   I get the error message \paperwidth (0.0pt) too short.  I don't see the \paperwidth is set to 0.0pt anywhere though..  Also it seems to me that depending on which machine I use to compile my tex file, I get different margins, even when I set them up manually (without using geometry). Is it possible?    Using the geometry package things seem to work a bit better now (I changed machine and the problem with the paper width previously mentioned disappeared).   \usepackage[margin=1in,footskip=0.25in]{geometry}   gives me without problem upper, right and left margin of 1in. But the lower margin is 1.2in and I can't change it to be 1in even by using bottom=1in or bottom=0.8in. I really don't see how this can happen. Maybe a problem with the spacing between lines? The class files I am using can be fund at   I erased the margin settings of uclath12.clo as the margin I need are different from the ones that this file gives. Thank you. I am thinking about buying a new lens specifically to take photos of distant targets (birds, bears, etc). I currently own the Canon 70-300 IS USM, which is a nice lens, but I find that if I want to take a photo of anything further away than about 10 meters, the target does not fill a large amount of the frame (meaning I have to significantly crop in post production).  I am currently looking at the Canon prime 400mm, however I would like to determine at what distance an object will fill a reasonable proportion of the frame.  Is there a formula or rule of thumb I can apply that will help me in this situation? I realise the size of the target I am shooting will play a role here, so if we need to make an assumption about the size of the target please let me know. Does Stack Exchange use caching and if so, how? Is zero odd or even? Prove that $n=\dfrac{5^{125}-1}{5^{25}-1}$ is a composite number   My attempt,  Let $x=5^{25}$, so that $5^{125}-1=x^5-1=(x-1)(x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1)$  $=(x^4+9x^2+1+6x^3+6x+2x^2-5x^3-10x^2-5x)(x-1)$  $=((x^2+3x+1)^2-5x(x+1)^2)(x-1)$  I'm stuck at this point and don't know how to continue anymore. Hope someone can provide a detailed solution. Thanks a lot. During the end credit scene of Spider-Man: Far from Home, we see that,      Nick Fury and Maria Hill are two Skrulls, Talos and (presumably) his wife.   And we also see that,      Nick Fury is in a spaceship like structure, presumably away from Earth.   So that begs the question,      How long has Talos been impersonating Nick Fury? Is it since the events of Captain Marvel or since Avengers: Endgame or sometime in between? How to modify an array's values by a foreach loop? I am working on a print for my wall and I am trying to create something like this:      I have already created the letters in Illustrator and now I am adding the colors in Illustrator and then exporting everything to Photoshop and then using the liquify tool to blend the colors to create a similar effect. I also used the healing patch tool to blend in the hard edges.  Is that the right way of doing it? Or is there another way?

However, when we use our visualforce pages with LightningStylesheets=true on the Lightning Community, the Lightning styling is not applied.  I understand that this is the case because Lightning Communities are not Lightning Experience.  Is there a way to force LightningStylesheets anyway? I am trying to stay away from having to rebuild/restyle all our legacy visualforce pages. How do I diff two text files in Windows Powershell? I have two text files and want to find the differences between them using Windows Powershell. Is there something similar to the Unix diff tool available? Or is there another other way I haven't considered?

I've switched from BibTeX to Biber and I was struggling with some errors.  During those problems (see  and  ) I noticed that other users seem to get a more detailed output in the log file (see e. g. ).

Should student or supervisor be corresponding author for publications based on student research? Papers published from an academic project (MSc or PhD) usually have two authors; the first author is the student who mainly conducted the research, and the second author is the professor who supervised the projects.  The corresponding author is the one who take the responsibility of a paper, and thus, some believe that students are not yet prepared to take this responsibility.  Ideally, who should be corresponding author for papers published by MSc or PhD projects?  I understand that it mainly depends on personal agreements and preferences, but I want to know which case is more reasonable from academic logic? How to pass an array of Uri between Activity using Bundle How do I use the Cherokee keyboard layout to type English characters? Wow, I've really done it this time. I've locked myself out of my machine.  In preparing for a Cherokee language course, I added the Cherokee keyboard layout to my options. However, I was unable to generate any Cherokee characters by selecting that input device.  I found an article on the web which instructed me to use the dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration command in a terminal.  Once I did that, I rebooted as instructed. Once I was presented with the login screen, I entered my password as usual only for it to fail.  After failing a few times, I gave my attention to what is usually a mundane exercise (i.e., logging in).  While I carefully entered my password, each time, I get the message, "Sorry that didn't work..."  So, I brought up the onscreen keyboard... But the password box displays an asterisk for only the first character of my password.  I attempted to use the direct Unicode input method (ctrl-shift-Uxxxx) but the Cherokee keyboard has no "U" key.  Can anyone please help me troubleshoot this? How to change programmatically exposed filters in views I have a page view with exposed filters. One of the filters is term vocabulary, and that's dropdown list, user can select only one category (term).   I want to set programmatically one term from dropdown list when I came from specific URL. I tried with views_query_alter where $category is tid.    $set_exposed_input  = array();  $set_exposed_input['field_category_tid'] = $category;   if ($set_exposed_input) {     $view-&gt;set_exposed_input($set_exposed_input);  }
