Is there a way to convert a player character to a CR rating for the purpose of calculating combat difficulty?
If I design a PC for use as an NPC, how much XP should he give when killed?
Is Adzerk safe / legitimate? How to get UTF-8 working in Java webapps? Freestyle with multiple objects I have several objects that intersect each other:   I would like to draw lines on the silhouette and key details with Freestyle, however Blender does detect intersections between objects and gives a very strange result:   What I'm trying to make is something like this:   Note: This is just an example, what I'm trying to do has about 10 highly detailed objects which intersect each other, so manually combining them is not possible.  Is it possible to make Freestyle detect edges at face intersections? If not, is there a simple way of combining the objects to create a single object with the outer faces of all the objects? Does an electrolytic capacitor degrade each time it receives reverse voltage? Toggle wireframe mode with hotkey How do I toggle in and out of wireframe mode with my keyboard? Is there a hotkey for this?  I'm a beginner (obviously). I thought I could find this in the "view" menu, but it either doesn't exist or I have horrendous eyesight. Thanks! This is a good news.    This is good news.    Which one is correct? Clarify the difference Is ∅ equivalent to {∅}? I think they are, but I am not sure? If anyone could clarify, that would be great. Thank you! The following methods can be used to add CSS for specific versions of IE:   Paste the code into html.tpl.php:  &lt;!--[if lt IE 9]&gt;&lt;link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" src="/sites/all/themes/mytheme/less/ie.css"&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt; Make use of the plugin  Use drupal_add_css() function   I have always used option #1 above, and adding yet another plugin for something so simple seemed crazy. BUT working with LESS and calling in statically means the file does not get processed by the LESS pre-processor, so the question:  How do you include a stylesheet using drupal_add_css() for specific versions of IE? I found "A sledgehammer to crack a nut" as one example. What are some others? Why wasn't Sauron invisible when he wore the Ring? When Sauron is shown killing Elendil and then being destroyed by Isildur he is clearly not invisible and he is wearing the Ring.  But any time Bilbo or Frodo put on the Ring they went invisible without fail.  Did the Ring change after Sauron was destroyed or is Sauron capable of controlling the rings power unlike anyone else? How can I add a new value to a picklist using APEX? I have queries pulling all of the information correctly but what I can't seem to find was a way to add new options to a picklist using APEX.  I currently have   Package__c.Products__c.add(new Schema.PicklistEntry(products[j].Name));   Package__c is my custom object, and Products__c is the picklist. products[j] is pulling a list of products pulled from our products page.  And I've tried adding it as a select option, or even casting the variable type.  And this information has to go to the actual picklist within a custom object, and not within a visual force page or anything like that. How to burn a Windows .iso to a USB device? I want to burn a Windows ISO to a USB device in Ubuntu. How do I do this?   I know how to burn a Ubuntu ISO into a USB device, but with a Windows ISO it's not the same. How to install XAMPP? Hi all im a noob on Ubuntu/Linux World,  So i need some that give a full tutorial to How to install  from apachefriends.org correctly on Ubuntu 11.10 + all beyond Ubuntu for 32 bit and also 64 bit Desktop Version.. and also i need this:   Make a Folder on Your Home Folder and Linked to htdocs from Apache Web Server Make a GUI interface for Xmapp Start Xampp when Ubuntu Boot Up or Start Ubuntu   (Note: i ask it for both X86 and X64 so people in the further can see the tutorials)    New Data:  What i did was i download from  for now and i also what to say that I'm currently running Ubuntu 11.10 X64 bit for Dell Studio 1558 processor intel i3  i will let you know guys which solution was the best, and it is for a Desktop Version of Ubuntu 11.10 (Laptop 15 inch screen ^_^ ) not Server Ubuntu How do I boot into a root shell? When booting to the graphical desktop fails we sometimes are recommended to boot into a "root shell" or to boot in "recovery mode".  How do I do that? Are we inside a black hole? I was surprised to only recently notice that      An object of any density can be large enough to fall within its own   Schwarzschild radius.   Of course! It turns out that supermassive black holes at galactic centers can have an average density of less than water's.  Somehow I always operated under the assumption that black holes of any size had to be superdense objects by everyday standards.  Compare the Earth to collapsing into a mere 9mm marble retaining the same mass, in order for the escape velocity at the surface to finally reach that of light.  Or Mt. Everest packed into one nanometer.  Reading on about this , it increases proportionally with total mass.  Assuming matter is accumulated at a steady density into a spherical volume, the volume's radius will only "grow" at a cube root of the total volume and be quickly outpaced by its own gravitational radius.  Question: For an object the , what would have to be its diameter for it to qualify as a black hole (from an external point of view)?  Would this not imply by definition that:   The Earth, Solar system and Milky Way are conceivably inside this black hole? Black holes can be nested/be contained within larger ones? Whether something is a black hole or not is actually a matter of perspective/where the observer is, inside or outside? Why does the (relativistic) mass of an object increase when its speed approaches that of light? I'm reading Nano: The Essentials by T. Pradeep and I came upon this statement in the section explaining the basics of scanning electron microscopy.     However, the equation breaks down when the electron velocity approaches the speed of light as mass increases. At such velocities, one needs to do relativistic correction to the mass so that it becomes[...]   We all know about the famous theory of relativity, but I couldn't quite grasp the "why" of its concepts yet. This might shed new light on what I already know about time slowing down for me if I move faster.  Why does the (relativistic) mass of an object increase when its speed approaches that of light? Short story (+radio play?) in which astronauts outside their ship slowly drift apart in space Looking for a short story in which the crew of a spaceship for some reason find themselves outside the ship, drifting apart in outer space. They can communicate via their radios but are individually drifting apart.  One by one, they lose communication as they drift further away from each other.  Might have also been adapted into a radio play? Batch file to delete files older than N days We've tried this a few times. First time we used an old ceramic container and it started sheding on the inside and ruined it. Next time we used a new metal garbage can with one of those super sized 10 gallon zip lock bags as a liner. It went rank very quickly. This could have been due to our packing though. Before we get into this again, what is you recommendation for a good container? I hate the thought of plastics but it seems it might just be the best choice as long as it's made for food storage. X,Y,Z missing in F3 When I press F3 to see the debug screen in I use Minecraft 1.8.1, some information is missing.   Most notably, there are no X, Y, Z coordinates.     What happened to my debug overlay?
