Best way to clone an installation (copying to identical hardware) Kind-of like  but slightly different (I think), in that I have 6 identical Acer Aspire Revo R3610 machines. One is (almost) configured to my requirements - when I'm done preparing it I'd like to make the other 5 machines absolutely the same. I'm very new to Ubuntu, what's the most straightforward (easiest) way of doing this?  The machines are going to live on different networks if that might otherwise be a problem (eg with Windows you can clone disks but you then have to make registry changes afterwards if they're going to run on the same network etc). The hardware in all 6 machines is, I stress, the same!  How can I efficiently clone one source image on to these identical machines?  Please restrict one software/solution per answer How to find out if an item is present in a std::vector? All I want to do is to check whether an element exists in the vector or not, so I can deal with each case.  if ( item_present )    do_this(); else    do_that(); Elysia cron module does not execute cron job automatically I have installed the elysia cron module and setup the cron job. My module has a cron function test_cron() which inserts some data into a table.  This function lists in the elysia cron status page. I have setup the the default scheduled rule to */1 * * * * to run the cron after every minute.  When I click on the run infront of the test_cron() the cron runs and some data inserts into the database.  But this the manual method, I want to execute the cron after every minute therefore I defined the scheduled time for the test_cron(),  but it does not executed automatically after every minute.  What should I do? Is there any other configuration which I should do to run the cron automatically? The responsiveness is really bad on a newly installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.  Here's the specs of my laptop:  Quadcore Intel i7-4600U CPU @ 2.10GHz 12GB Ram 1TB Samsung EVO SSD   And when gradle is compiling, my entire system slows to a crawl, videos begin stuttering, browser scrolling lags... etc.  The same goes when a page refresh occurs in another window in Chrome, and while it refreshes, the HTML5 video in another tab begins stuttering.  How can I fix this?  Here are some logs:  $ vmstat -a 1 5 -   $ iostat -x 1 5 -   $ top -b - Which IP address do I use to access my server? I'm running a Samba server on my MacBook and I've also set up port forwarding to said server from my router.  My public IP is 106.51.x.x (according to google and a few other services) and my Mac's local IP is 192.168.x.x, but when I head to my router's configuration page, it says my external IP is 10.242.x.x.  This is what I don't understand, when connected to my home WiFi, using the 10.242.x.x address works just fine. But if I try to access the same over 4G, the connection times out.  As for the public address, neither WiFi nor 4G works.  Is there some setting on my Mac (I'm running MacOS Sierra) that I must alter to make it visible to the public? What is the relationship between ISO, aperture, and shutter speed? Wasted screen space due to multiple horizontal bars at the top when an application is open in GNOME desktop I use Thunderbird to backup my web-based email account: I open Thunderbird and copy the mail messages from the Inbox to a local folder.   Is there a way to do this automatically every day, so that I don't have to open Thunderbird all the time?  EDIT:  is very useful for GMail accounts. For non-GMail account, the getmail method should probably be used. What are metaclasses in Python? In Python, what are metaclasses and what do we use them for? When we find the electric field between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor we assume that the electric field from both plates is $${\bf E}=\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\hat{n.}$$ The factor of two in the denominator comes from the fact that there is a surface charge density on both sides of the (very thin) plates. This result can be obtained easily for each plate. Therefore when we put them together the net field between the plates is $${\bf E}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}\hat{n}$$ and zero everywhere else. Here, $\sigma$ is the surface charge density on a single side of the plate, or $Q/2A$, since half the charge will be on each side.   But in a real capacitor the plates are conducting, and the surface charge density will change on each plate when the other plate is brought closer to it. That is, in the limit that the two plates get brought closer together, all of the charge of each plate must be on a single side. If we let $d$ denote the distance between the plates, then we must have $$\lim_{d \rightarrow 0}{\bf E}=\frac{2\sigma}{\epsilon_0}\hat{n}$$ which disagrees with the above equation. Where is the mistake in this reasoning?  Or more likely, do our textbook authors commonly assume that we are in this limit, and that this is why the conductor behaves like a perfectly thin charged sheet?

Is there some rare language construct I haven't encountered (like the few I've learned recently, some on Stack Overflow) in C# to get a value representing the current iteration of a foreach loop?  For instance, I currently do something like this depending on the circumstances:  int i = 0; foreach (Object o in collection) {     // ...     i++; } Is there any danger to letting food cook in a slow cooker for a very long time? I've recently started using a slow cooker and I was thinking about recipes that could be cooked for days.  My main concern is if there are any side effects for leaving food cooking for days that would make this plan unfeasible (dangerous to try).  Since it is at cooking temperature, there wouldn't be any reason to worry about bacteria growing on the food.  Liquid would be lost over time, which could result in burning if left unchecked, but if I add more every morning/night as needed, that too wouldn't be a problem.  All I can see is that most recipes wouldn't end up tasting as well, but undesirable isn't equal to dangerous.  There just seems to be something absurd with the notion of leaving food cooking for 5 days or even 2 weeks without there being any dangers, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what they would be. Proving that $f(x)$ is less than or equal to $1+\pi/4$ Suppose $f$ is a real valued differentiable function defined on $[1,\infty)$ with $f(1)=1$. Suppose also that $f$ satisfies $$f'(x)=\frac{1}{x^2+f^2(x)}.$$ The question is to prove that $f(x) \leq 1+\pi/4$ for every $x \geq 1$    I tried to solve the differential equation but could not bring it in some known form. I examined the derivative of $\tan^{-1}x$ which looks similar to that  in the question. However I could not get any idea with that. Any help shall be highly appreciated. Thanks. Noun for "receive"? Receipt?  Receiving?  I'm trying to come up with a name for "the acceptance of a delivery."  I'd like to be able to say      Ten deliveries were made but there are only five [fill_in_the_blank_here] on record.   Any suggestions? Is there a Term to describe the relationship between two people when they share an Alma Mater?  For example; Neil Armstrong is an alumnus of Purdue University. I am an alumnus of Purdue University. Both Neil and I are alumni of Purdue University, which is to say we share an alma mater. So, I'm looking for a term to describe my relationship to to Neil with out needing to explicitly reference the university. Is co-alumni a real term? Is it appropriate to say that Neil and I are co-alumni? Is there something better? Further, is there a way to specifically describe the relationship between two people from the same graduating class?  Thank You in advance! There seems to be something wrong with the sorting of Stack Exchange sites by name:    elementary OS and Русский язык appear in the wrong place at the end of the list. Why do files sometimes change but not the inode or vice versa? When a file is updated then the corresponding inode gets updated. But sometimes the following condition occurs    file is same and inode is new  file gets changed but corresponding inode is older   Why ?
