How to mount an internal HDD on start-up?
Do the same camera settings lead to the same exposure across different sensor sizes? Let's say I have a micro-4/3rd camera and a full frame camera, both set to 1/60 at f/2.8, taking a picture of the same scene in the same lighting. Will the exposure be the same across both cameras despite the different sensor sizes?  The reason why I'm asking is because of the difference in depth of field between micro-4/3 and full frame sensors. I'm finding that, in order to take a picture of certain scenes with the full frame camera at the same depth of field as the micro-4/3rd camera, I have to increase the aperture, which in turn forces me to crank up the ISO. Motivation  I want to include a list of related equations, say, for a proof, in my LaTeX document. As far as I know, I have two good options, eqnarray and align.   Question  What is the difference between eqnarray and align, and how do I know which I should be using? Or does it matter at all? How do I put big brackets under different parts of an equation to attach text labels? How do I put big brackets under different parts of an equation so that I can write, e.g., text specific to these parts? For example: f =  x^3 +  2     |___|  |__|        |     |    text 1  text 2 Why is the notation $\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}$ used? How to solve the diffencial equation for power series $(1+x²)y'' - 6xy=0$ in $x_{0}=0$ I have tried for the power series but when suppose the solution is $y(x)=\sum _{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n$ appeared sums dependents of $a_n$,  $a_{n+2}$ and $a_{n-1}$ and this is not possible. How are unbalanced forces even possible, given Newton's 3rd law? I have a script that needs to do some stuff based on file creation &amp; modification dates but has to run on Linux &amp; Windows.  What's the best cross-platform way to get file creation &amp; modification date/times in Python? A projection operator $P$ is defined as $P^2$=$P$. Use this definition to find the eigenvalues of this operator.   In this question is it necessary to define what the projection operator is? And won't the eigenvalue just be zero? jQuery - setting the selected value of a select control via its text description I have a select control, and in a javascript variable I have a text string.  Using jQuery I want to set the selected element of the select control to be the item with the text description I have (as opposed to the value, which I don't have).  I know setting it by value is pretty trivial. e.g.  $("#my-select").val(myVal);   But I'm a bit stumped on doing it via the text description. I guess there must be a way of getting the value out from the text description, but my brain is too Friday afternoon-ed to be able to work it out. How do I change my update server in Ubuntu 18.04? The first thing I did after installing 16.04 LTS was to change my update server to Main Server. I can not find a similar option in Ubuntu 18.04.  How do I change it? Ubuntu stuck/freeze on install I've been trying to replace my current Windows 10 installation with Ubuntu 16.04. My computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad T470. I've formatted my 15GB USB-dongle. Downloaded the software Rufus, and burned the ISO onto the USB. I've tried the settings "MBR Partition for BIOS or UEFI", "MBR Partition for UEFI" and "GPT partition for UEFI". I've tried using memtest86+ to test if I have any memory errors, I have not. I've tried disabling Secure boot, and Fast startup. I've tried using other software than Rufus, and I've tried entering the "nomodeset" in the boot options, as well "acpi=off", nothing works.   When I boot from my USB. I choose "Install Ubuntu" from the grub menu. And then select my language in the installer. It is from this point on, it gets problematic. Sometimes when I try to connect to my WIFI, it connects successfully, but when I press the "continue" button, the installer freezes and nothing happens. Sometimes I get past this point, but it then freezes later on in the installation progress - typically right when I press the "Install now" button.   It should also be mentioned that, if I press the "Quit" button in the install. I get to a black screen with a lot of text saying something like squashfs error.   Can someone please help me? When I tried booting memtest86+ it only worked when I changed my boot mode from UEFI to Legacy. Could this be it? Are there any downsides to installing an operating system in legacy?   If anyone has any other suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you :-) I need to calculate the SQRT of  $x$ to $y$ decimal places. I'm dealing with $128$-bit precision, giving a limit of $28$ decimal places. Obviously, if $\,y &gt; 28$, the , which I'm currently using, becomes futile, as it simply doesn't offer $y$ decimal places.  My question to you is, can I calculate the Square Root digit-by-digit? For example, calculating the $n$-th digit, assuming I already have digit $\,n - 1$. I'm well aware this may be impossible, as I've not found any such method through Google yet, just checking here before I give up in search of arbitrary precision methods. I came across this strange code snippet which compiles fine:  class Car {     public:     int speed; };  int main() {     int Car::*pSpeed = &amp;Car::speed;     return 0; }   Why does C++ have this pointer to a non-static data member of a class? What is the use of this strange pointer in real code? How do I programmatically create a new content type? I'm going to mount my 47" LCD above my fireplace. I'm not looking for arguments against this decision. I'm looking for wiring solutions. The diagram below should help explain the situation.   _________________________________________________ |     |     |    | |   |   |   | |    |     |     | |     |     |    | |   |   |   | |    |     |     | |     |     |    | |   |   |   | |    |     |     | |     |     |    | | p |   | m | |    |     |     | |     |     |    | |   |   |   | |    |     |     | |     |     |    #################    |     |     | |     |     |    ##             ##    |     |     | |     |     |    ##             ##    |     |     | |    P|     |    ##             ##  m |     |P C  | |_____|_____|____##_____________##____|_____|_____|    | = stud # = fireplace brick P = existing power outlet C = existing cable outlet p = new power outlet m = new media outlet   Essentially, there is an existing power outlet on either side of the fireplace and a cable outlet on the far right side of the fireplace. I'm intending to put my non-TV media equipment on the right side of the wall and the television above the fireplace. This means I need two things above the fireplace: power and HDMI. I don't want to just run an HDMI cable in the wall. I'd prefer to have some sort of conduit to simplify replacing the cable or having a second (with one of these on each end: ). I only need to drill through two studs that are 6" apart above the right side of the fireplace in order to access the vertical space where I want the other end. For the power, I need to drill through two 6"-spaced studs above the left-side of the fireplace, but then another 2 full-height studs.  There are a couple of caveats:   This is an externally facing wall, which means there's insulation. I'm assuming this will make things more difficult. I'd like to refrain from cutting more holes in the wall than is necessary for the outlets (to reduce drywall damage/repair).   I've considered a couple of options:   Cut the openings for the outlets above the fireplace, and use a flexible drill bit to drill through the studs above the fireplace. This minimizes dry-wall damage, but how difficult is this with insulation in the wall, how can I feed the conduit through those holes, and how would I drill through the full-height studs on the left for power? Cut a wide section of dry-wall (4" high?) from the desired media outlet to the right until reaching the gap above the desired lower outlet. This results in some dry-wall damage, but would allow more control for drilling holes in the studs and running conduit. This still doesn't solve the problem of getting through the full-height stud for the power. For the power, I would need to extend the cut-out two studs further.   What should I do? Windows vs Linux Local Time? Ever since I started using Linux in dualboot with Windows I noticed that when I rebooted the machine, the time on the other OS was wrong, e.g. it was 12:00 on Linux, then I rebooted and on Windows it was 18:00, and when I checked the BIOS, the RTC was set to 18:00. Since my timezone is -06:00 CST I assume Linux just sets the RTC’s time to UTC and re-calculates the time based on the timezone, whereas Windows just sets the RTC to the local time. Both use the same NTP server to sync the time.  The question is, which one is doing the right thing? On which one should I set the timezone setting to UTC in order to have the right time on both? It said  that:     [....] Rijndael can be specified with block and key sizes in any multiple of 32 bits, with a minimum of 128 bits. The blocksize has a maximum of 256 bits, but the keysize has no theoretical maximum.   How would the key schedule look for these other key sizes, like a 136-bit key? I would like to know how to understand/analyse the circuit below. And sorry but my level in electronics is not that high and I could only tell that the opposing transistors on the left are meant to cancel any current from the input , yet I don't really understand the B stage which I think the C stage is well related to , and if I wanted to analyse the nodes around the circuit apart from (A,B,C) How can I do it ?  Is it by measuring the current on resistors/nodes?  and note that the output voltage of the circuit in node C is zero this is what it meant to be.I would appreciate any help.  Regards Could the Infinity Gauntlet be used to make two people fall in love with each other? I am wondering if there is anything in Marvel comic book canon or in the MCU that says that the Infinity Gauntlet has the power to make someone fall in love with the person wearing the Infinity Gauntlet, or that the wearer of the Infinity Gauntlet can use the Infinity Gauntlet to make two strangers fall in love with each other? Perhaps the combined power of the Mind Stone and the Soul Stone would make two people fall in love. Would you capitalize the job title in the following sentence?      I am writing this letter in regard to Joe Brown who is applying for the director of teaching and learning position in the XYZ School District.
