Where to find the checksums of Ubuntu ISO images? I just downloaded the ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso, and am having a hard time burning it, so I'd like to check that the file is intact, but I cannot find the md5sum of the file.    Is there a URL or official FTP mirror which includes the md5sum of the Ubuntu disk images? In C#, should I use string.Empty or String.Empty or "" to intitialize a string? In C#, I want to initialize a string value with an empty string.  How should I do this?  What is the right way, and why?  string willi = string.Empty;   or  string willi = String.Empty;   or  string willi = "";   or what? Is it possible to skip releases during an upgrade?

I want to install Windows XP on my desktop computer (only XP), but my CD drive is not working.

I have set my systems proxy manually, by plugging in the required numbers in the Networks proxy and applied it system wide. I guess the problem now is plugging in my user-name and password.  When I use INTERNET via Mozilla, it specifically asks me for my user-name and password. Can the Room of Requirement provide anything if needed? For example:   James Potter wanted to hide from Voldemort, it would have served as a perfect hiding place. Harry Potter wanted all the Hocruxes, he should have gone straight to the room of requirement where he would have found all the Hocruxes along with the Sword. All the muggle borns of the wizarding community could have taken refuge in the room of requirement. Can someone meet a dead person in the room of Requirement if needed? Would it have been possible for Harry to go in past in order to see Dumbledore for the explanation of many things? Can the room duplicate something? For instance, Harry needed the Elder wand; with Voldemort having it, could he still get it? Someone wishes to be knowledgeable than Dumbledore, would the seeker find his desired wish by finding books and things?   Who created the room of requirement (surely not Salazar)? Was it beyond Dumbledore's magic to create such a place? TikZ is undergoing lots of development with new features being added, but the versions distributed with standard TeX releases are often a little old. How do I get the latest version? If I want to be sure that I get the latest stable version, how do I do that?    Note: I'm not asking this question for myself, but because a question like this seems to be useful for pointing to it when a new feature of TikZ is mentioned in an answer to some other question. Feel free to post answers for any operating system/TeX distribution combination. Is it true that $\lfloor\sqrt{n}+\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n+2} \rfloor=\lfloor\sqrt{9n+7}\rfloor$? I know it's true that  $$\lfloor\sqrt{n}+\sqrt{n+1} \rfloor=\lfloor\sqrt{4n+1}\rfloor,\forall n\in \mathbb N. \tag 1$$ Is it true that  $$\left[\sqrt{n}+\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n+2} \right ]=\left[\sqrt{9n+7}\right], \tag 2$$ $$\left[\sqrt{n} +\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n+2}+\sqrt{n+3}\right ]=\left[\sqrt{16n+20}\right], \tag 3$$ $$\left[\sqrt{n} +\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n+2}+\sqrt{n+3}+\sqrt{n+4}\right ]=\left[\sqrt{25n+49}\right], \tag 4$$ for all $n\in \mathbb N$? I have checked $(2),(3),(4)$ through $10^6.$   (I think $(4)$ maybe has counter-examples, but I cannot find it.) Using "nor" in a list without "neither" This is the classic usage of neither/nor:     I would neither hide nor run away.   But is the following construction grammatical? (More than two choices, no neither)     I wasn't going to play dead.   I wasn't going to hide.   Nor was I going to run away. Undercooked beans in chili? I made a bit of a mistake, being a lazy bachelor and inexperienced at cooking.  I was making chili and when it came time to add beans I discovered I didn't have any canned beans.  I did however have some dried beans.  I decided to save time and add these directly to the pot of chili and add some water.  However, after much simmering the beans maintain a certain unpalatable crispness.  I have also read that undercooked beans contain a chemical lectin which can cause stomach discomfort.  I have also read that beans should be soaked, the water discarded to remove the lectin, and then boiled to cook them.  Is there any way to salvage this?  Should I just continue cooking the chili for hours?  Will I have to throw out my potentially delicious chili? How can orbitals be oriented if the nucleus is symmetrical? I know very little about quantum physics, but I just can't wrap my head around the fact that non-spherical orbitals appear to be "oriented", constituting a set of fixed "frame of reference axes".  Does it really work like that? Are there for a single atom given directions in which the orbitals "protrude"? And if so, what are they based on? If I understand it right, the nucleus is seemingly spherical - symmetrical with no unique axis of symmetry. What would then decide the orientation of the orbitals in space (with respect to the surroundings)?  Edit: I understand any orientation works to satisfy the wave equation. I was more curious why the atom would choose one direction, instead of any of the others. Is that fundamentally random? And is this setup retained further, or can it change at any time? I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 Domain.  Yesterday, a computer’s (running Windows 10 Pro) network drive stopped working.  After further investigation (gpresult /h) it appears ALL group policy objects are failing with the reason Inaccessible, Empty, or Disabled.  I have confirmed that all the GPOs still exist and are enabled on both (redundant and local) domain controllers.  Furthermore, there are 20 other machines on the same domain and LAN with absolutely no problems.  However, there is one other computer that I tested which presented with the same problem!  Does that mean the problem is with the servers?  gpresult /r reports that one client is getting GPOs from local DC1, and the other from DC2.  So it is not a problem related to a specific DC.  gpupdate /force fixed nothing (though it claimed that policies were applied).   I tried deleting the registry entries for local policies (following this guide ) and rebooting - same problem.    I found this support page from Microsoft (), but it claims it only applies to Windows 7 or earlier clients.  All my machines (both server and client) are running 64-bit versions and are fully updated.  I have rebooted all of them just to be sure.
