Why does dpkg give a “Broken pipe” error while installing an nvidia driver?
dpkg error: "trying to overwrite file, which is also in..."
How did humans and vulcans communicate in Star Trek: First Contact? Time indicator is shown as "%a %H:%M" in the center of the top bar.  How do I move it back to the right where it belongs, and make it include the full date and time ("%Y-%m-%d %s %H:%M")? Gauss circle problem : a simple asymptotic estimation. Is it true that quantum mechanics technically allows anything to happen? Maybe this is a silly question (I think it is), but it's a question I'm arguing with some of my friends for a long time.  The ultimate question is: Is everything (in our Universe) possible ?  I've read some books (Penrose, Hawking, Greene, etc.) where it was clearly stated several times that quantum mechanics allows any situation to happen (e.g. everything is possible) - even with absurdly tiny probabilities?  Does this mean only physically possible - or "ultimate" possible ?  For example (I know this example seems really absurd, but I'm saying this so you get the idea) what my friends clame it is possible:   If I ask my friend(s): "Is it possible there is a Sun-sized star in my pocket right now?" They will respond: "Yes, there is very very tiny possibility this can be true!" Etc. Spacing problem at List of Figures Can I visit other Schengen countries on a long-term Schengen visa or residency permit? Is it (theoretically) physically possible to project an image into thin air? Recent fluid-mechanical experiments by the groups of Couder in Paris and Bush at MIT, mimic a surprisingly wide range of quantum effects. The essential ingredient of these fluid-mechanical systems is a background or pilot-wave that guides the droplets.  Now, surprisingly, a simple analysis of a Bell-type experiment shows that, in the presence of a background field, one of the premises of the Bell inequality, namely measurement independence (MI), is violated. See the paper  (available ). Therefore such classical droplet experiments could violate a Bell inequality. More importantly, if this analysis is correct, background-based hidden-variable theories are admissible, even if they are local (in the sense of ‘involving only (sub)luminal interactions’) and even if they are compatible with free will.   My question: to me the analysis seems fully sound, but maybe there is still an unphysical hypothesis that slipped in ? SEO safe way to run beta of new site on seperate domain Nesting quotes in JavaScript/HTML So I was searching for one of my own websites on Google: http://www.botlibre.com  and to my surprise found some clones of my website, like:  http://83waystowasteyourtime.adidas.com  and:  http:// mediaiq.astral.comm  My question are:   Why are they creating clones of my website?  Some kind of SEO scheme or what? What gain could they be getting? How do they have a URL at adidas.com and astral.comm?  I assume it's not Adidas steeling my content. How do I shutdown these sites and stop people from stealing my content? (on Tomcat) Named Credentials - Merge Fields not Resolving I have a problem with verb structure In this sentence:     Four items are responsible for three-fourths of the overall spending around the world, the most prominent share being that of food.   Why after the comma, the verb "being" is used? Why it does not use "is"? I would like to know difference between user and service account.  I know that e.g. Jenkins installed to ubuntu is not a user, .    What is use of service account? When we need them? How can I create service account? Mikrotik NAT halves WAN speed Will this schematic work as a four-bit shift register? &ndash; Schematic created using   Will this work as a four-bit shift register? (And by extension a shift register of any size?) Each vertical PMOS / NMOS transistor pair acts as a multiplexer, and the PMOS transistor to its left amplifies the voltage back up to close to V_high. I'd be interested in hearing people's feedback on this. Right now I have only three transistors (and a resistor) per bit. Can I really get it that small a ratio, or are there reasons why I need more transistors per bit?  It's probably worth noting that I don't have master/slave here, so I can only assert (Shift) long enough to move one bit toward the right and no more.  Furthermore, I'm not trying to say that I need a resistor with 100 ohms. That appeared to be the only resistor I could use to make this schematic! What I want is a resistor that has significantly less resistance than the PMOS it's next to when it's at high impedance, but enough resistance to prevent a short circuit from V_high to ground when that transistor is conducting.  Okay, now I've changed each of the BJT's to MOSFET's, and reduced the resistance of each resistor from 100 ohms to 10 ohms. I'm still going on the assumption that (shift) will only be asserted long enough for the gate delays of M4 and M5, and then of M6, so the value of (dataIn) will only make it to M6's output, and won't move to M8 until the next time (shift) is asserted. Is this enough to get this circuit behaving like a four-bit shift register? A story about the world split into three realms This is a series I read partially something like 15 years ago (I think). It is set in a universe with magic of some sort - I think the magic was derived from geological processes (?). One of the things I remember - which was the reason I abandoned the series - was that it grew ever more gory; when I stopped reading, one of the main protagonists was flayed alive.   I only remember fragments - there were hints that the universe had been magically split into three or four parts, three relatively normal parts and The Void. I remember there was a powerful person/ruler called Tensor, and a kind of monstrous race with powerful magic, called 'Lorsk', which originated in the void and had evolved from humans that had been trapped there.  I'm a bit ambivalent about reading the series again - it seemed to be a never-ending death spiral of soap operatic proportions, but I'd like to see if my impression from then was actually right. Read MIME data using PHP How to list files in a zip without extra information in command line In my bash command line, when I use unzip -l test.zip I get the output like this:  Archive:  test.zip   Length      Date    Time    Name ---------  ---------- -----   ----    810000  05-07-2014 15:09   file1.txt    810000  05-07-2014 15:09   file2.txt    810000  05-07-2014 15:09   file3.txt ---------                     -------   2430000                     3 files   But I am interested only by the lines containing the file details.  I tried to make filtering using grep like this:   unzip -l test.zip | grep -v Length | grep -v "\-\-\-\-" | g -v Archive | grep -v " files"  But it is long and prone to error (e.g a file name Archive in this list will be dropped)  Is there any other options with unzip -l (I checked the unzip man page and did not find any) or another tool to do so?  It is important to me to not really unzip the archive but just to look what files are inside. Why does Stack Overflow allow duplicate display names? What is the reasoning behind the design decision to allow users to create a display name which matches another existing users exactly?    This is opposed to the common practice of enforcing unique user names, and I'd really like to learn something.
