Should I restructure my question if I was looking in the wrong place?
Stance on repost question instead of editing to invalidate answers?
My office is a converted garage about 30 feet from my house.   I have a coaxial cable already running from my house to the office.   I want to attach a Ethernet cable from my DSL modem, in my office, to a computer in my house.   Since I already have the coaxial cable installed, I bought two coax to Ethernet converters (NVA-P-860-BP78 Video Balun), but when I hooked them up I am getting no signal. It was my understanding that an Ethernet signal could travel over a coaxial cable.   Is that wrong? Any ideas why this isn't working? Grep: The asterisk (*) doesn't always work If I grep a document that contains the following:  ThisExampleString  ...for the expression This*String or *String, nothing is returned. However, This* returns the above line as expected.  Whether the expression is enclosed in quotes makes no difference.  I thought the asterisk indicated any number of unknown characters? Why does it only work if it's at the start of the expression? If this is intended behavior, what do I use instead of the expressions This*String and *String? Why is a nonstop flight sometimes more expensive than multiple connections? Lowering elevation of lake using QGIS I am in QGIS. I have a raster layer of mountains and a lake. I have a vector layer (shapefile) of the lake. It sits nicely where it supposed to be over the raster level. I am going to convert this height map to an STL so that I can cnc this out of wood, so I'd like the actual lake to be something like 200 feet lower than it shows on the raster layer so that I can fill it with blue epoxy. I have read a lot of clipping and everything else, and I am lost. How is the passage of time handled in Pokemon? How to force file download with PHP Light is clearly affected by gravity, just think about a black hole, but light supposedly has no mass and gravity only affects objects with mass.  On the other hand, if light does have mass then doesn't mass become infinitely larger the closer to the speed of light an object travels. So this would result in light have an infinite mass which is impossible.  Any explanations? Topical example:  'There was a scuffle outside the local pub. There appears to be no connection with religious extremists.'  ...but now you're wondering if there was. It's a nasty tactic used to raise fear and doubt - deliberately calling attention to something by explicitly denying it.  What's the term for this? I've heard that i can travel to the US any time before my tourist visa expiry.  Is that true?  (please advise) Creating or referencing variables dynamically in Sass Is changing your passport a good strategy for removing a negative immigration history in Schengen? When certain nationalities of people want to travel in the Schengen zone, they are required to apply for a Schengen visa. This is a straight-forward process for most, but when an applicant has had problems with removals or refusals they may be reluctant to apply because they want to avoid the complexities of serial visa refusals. This reluctance may lead some into wondering how their history can be expunged, and this line of thought inevitably leads to the idea of getting their passport replaced with a new one.  This sounds like a great formula for people who have had prior refusals or removals.  In essence they can become 'reincarnated' as a first-time traveller and hence avoid the unpleasantness of revealing their prior interactions with the Schengen authorities.  The relevant parts of the application form are shown here...    Nothing asks about a prior removal or refusal, and the applicant is left with simple denials for 3 questions in order to present themselves as a first-time traveller.  Assuming the person is happy to set aside the moral issues associated with denying their history, are there any holes to this strategy?  This question is scoped to Schengen visa applications so that it will not be unmanageably broad, but answers from other regimes (particularly the affluent Commonwealth and the USA) are acceptable as long as the main points are relatively consistent with Schengen. Which English dialects have 2nd person plural? "Y'all" is the famous southern US form of the 2nd person plural.  The Brooklyn / Italian-American "youse" might be another.  While the existence and usage of "y'all" has been addressed somewhat thoroughly here:  , I've found nothing else on EL&amp;U regarding 2nd person plural forms in other English dialects.  I know there was a dual form in Old English () does that survive in any of the dialects in the Danelaw?  Do Scots / Gaelic / Welsh / Australian / other dialects retain any type of 2nd person plural / dual in modern usage? I'm arriving to the US by air, but departing via land. How do I end form I-94 now that it is only electronic? How can I decode HTML characters in C#? I have email addresses encoded with HTML character entities. Is there anything in .NET that can convert them to plain strings? I remember a story I have read buy could not remember the author the name or anything apart from the basic plot. The story is about some future where humanity has to fight with some aliens (not 100% sure). The story tells about a guy who was some kind of activist and who was in a prison two or more times and somehow helped humanity by being held in a prison (can't remember details). I think the story starts by saying that there is a statue in his honor that is not very well known but he did more to help humanity than famous politicians.   The story is most likely written by some famous English-speaking author, though I read it in a translation. I'm currently going through notes on a physics course and I'm having trouble understanding the difference between a tensor, a vector, and a matrix. I know that a vector is a kind of tensor and that a matrix is also a form of tensor, but what I'm having trouble understanding is how they differ, and how a vector is related to a matrix. How to make cmd correctly display arabic script? When should comments be flagged/deleted on per-site metas? We all know , but that guidance is, naturally, geared toward main sites, where we want to keep things clean and focused.  Meta, on the other hand, is a site's "second place", with some different rules and conventions.  For example, questions on main sites can be closed as primarily-opinion-based, but meta is all about opinions.  There's a "discussion" tag and such questions collect many opinions.  Meta is different.  Occasionally I see comment flags on metas and I'm never sure what to do with them.  Setting aside things that are blatantly offensive or spam (that's a no-brainer), is there such a thing as "too chatty" or a comment discussion that should be moved to chat on meta?  I am very conservative in deleting things on per-site metas (except on  posts, which like main should stay focused).  Are there any guidelines specific to per-site metas?  I'm specifying per-site metas and not MSE because MSE seems to have conventions that fall somewhere between "main site" and "per-site meta".  If the answer is the same for all metas then great, but I don't want to assume it'll be the same. I just renewed my antivirus (Kaspersky's) yesterday. After that, I logged onto Chemistry.SE (which I frequent often) but then I was greeted with this  Which was definitely not how it looked like earlier that morning. I wasn't able to  Open the reputation and badges tab Vote on questions, answers and comments (even answers to MY questions) Comment on questions or answers. 'Favorite' a question Attach tags to a question Post questions  etc., etc. But when I logged on to the Physics and Biology SEs (which I also frequent), the page format hadn't changed, but I still faced the same problems as above. Does anyone know how to fix this? P.S- I'm not a computer/formatting whiz, so you'd have to try avoiding the jargon when helping me out, sorry.... (Also I use Chrome...in case that's important.) Also @Oded recommended checking out the browser developer tools and having a look at the CSS, but as I said, I'm no Software/formatting whiz...so I'm still lost....  On @Shadow Wizard 's advice I've taken a screen shot of the 'error' notification (I had to scroll down to get all 10 'errors' on screen, hence the need for separate screen-shots) A Regular Tetrahedron is a cool Polyhedron. A regular tetrahedron has this property:  For any two of its vertices exists a third vertex, which forms a regular triangle with these 2 vertices.(It doesn't necessarily have to be a face of it).  Are there any other polyhedrons that have the same property?  I think there isn't such a polyhedron. But not sure how to prove it. I've tried proving that there isn't an irregular tetrahedron with this property, assuming that there is a pair of unequal sides.   Current answers are a little confused with the conditions of the problem.
