Where is the "Manipulate Centers Only" button in Blender 2.8? I have looked just about everywhere on the Internet and I can't find the answer to this question. Where the hell is the "Manipulate Centers Only" button in Blender 2.8???? It's the the double arrow icon here:    I seem to have enabled it somehow and I can't scale or rotate my object. How can I know if my post(comment, answer, question) was Flagged? Is it possible to see if my post was flagged. The only way as I see it, if you see your post has got deleted, them may be someone might have flagged it for moderation. But is there other way to see if your post was flagged for moderation.   I am wondering if someone's is repeatedly flagged for posts, maybe he can be assigned a badge(bad one :) )  But right now, I want to know if it is possible to see how many posts of mine were flagged. From reading the rules it would appear there are two kinds of damage and then straight loss of life:     118.3 If an effect causes a player to gain or lose life, that player's life total is adjusted accordingly.   From reading that I would guess that effects like Extort are not sources of damage. You simply lose the life.      119.2a Damage may be dealt as a result of combat. Each attacking and blocking creature deals combat damage equal to its power during the combat damage step.   So damage from creatures during combat is combat damage.     119.2b Damage may be dealt as an effect of a spell or ability. The spell or ability will specify which object deals that damage.   And that is direct damage from an object.  So the arguments are these:  Does loss of life as outlined by rule 118.3 (at top) count as being dealt damage? Do triggered abilities that redirect or reduce damage effect loss of life?  My second related question: You put  on a  and tap her to deal one damage to your opponent. Am I right in saying that because the damage was direct damage (not dealt during combat) then the triggered ability of preventing the combat phase of the damaged player is not triggered? Unknown Syntax Error in Code So, I am following a , and it is using Python code to create an audio visualizer in Blender. Now, I've always been a coding geek, but I don't actually know Python. I've taken a few shots at it but overall, I don't know Python, however, I can read and understand the code because I know basic programming concepts. Now, I'm following this tutorial as closely as I can (the tutorial does not provide code to copy and paste) and I am getting a syntax error. As far as I can tell, there is no syntax error. The line of code (specified by the error message) appears perfect. This line of code is supposed to set the 3D cursor to the active object's origin. Here's the catch: if I run that exact same line of code in the console, it executes just fine. So here's the error message I get:  File "C:\Me\Blender\Blender Projects\audio visualisation.blend\AudioVisualizer", line 17 bpy.context.scene.cursor_location = bpy.context.active_object.location    ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax location: &lt;unknown location&gt;:-1   It tells me to look in the console for error message, but the console doesn't output anything.    Thanks!  EDIT: Alright. I've tried all the examples and all the procedures that have been suggested by you guys, but it keeps feeding me errors. According to the console, one of the problems it is spitting out is in C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.74\scripts\modules\bpy\ops.py. This makes me think there is a bug in the API that is causing one of the many errors. EDIT: Here are the error messages I get for my code. Original Code:  Error:   File "C:\Gannon\Blender\Blender Projects\audio visualisation.blend\Audi o Visualizer", line 35     bpy.ops.graph.sound_bake(filepath="C:\Gannon\Blender\Sounds\Music\Batty McFa dden.mp3", low=i*step high=i*step+step                           ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax    gandalf3's Code and zeffii's Code are essentially the same with alternative formatting which changes the line numbers where the error occurs.

I've recently been trying to introduce myself to formal logic, and I've hit a stumbling point:  In the text I'm reading, a valid argument is defined as "an argument in which it is impossible for the premises to be true and at the same time the conclusion false."  The text then later prompts me to declare whether it's possible for an argument to be valid with a contradiction for a conclusion. The answer key then claims that yes, it is in fact possible, but offers no further explanation. I'm also supposed to create an example.  I just can't wrap my head around this one.  Here's the example I've worked up, is this a valid argument?   If grass is green then it is raining.  If water is wet then it is not raining.  Therefore: It is raining and not raining.   My head hurts. In The Dark Knight Rises, at the beginning of the film Bane kidnapped a guy from the plane, then he drew blood from the guy he kidnapped. And then throughout the movie I didn't see any news regarding this kidnap scene. But, before the end of the movie we find out that the guy kidnapped by Bane was Dr Pavel. Bane needed him to convert the fusion project into a nuclear bomb and Dr Pavel was the only guy who could have done it.   But I don't understand, why did he draw blood from Dr Pavel? How do constant aperture zoom lenses work? Cheaper zoom lenses usually are faster at the wide end and slower at the long end (for example, the $150 Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6). More expensive constant-aperture zoom lenses have the same aperture regardless (for example, $800 Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0 L).  My question is: are these good lenses  at the wider settings, or do they have a different optic system that allows them to maintain the same aperture throughout the zoom range? Guinier regime for form factor Why is it such a good idea to plot the logarithm of the form factor vs $Q^2$ in . It seems arbitrary to me. Why can I use a function before it's defined in JavaScript? How do I uninstall Pandoc in Ubuntu 19.10 (and install most recent version) I have an old version of Pandoc installed, but I'd like to install the latest version of Pandoc.   To begin I've run the following to get rid of the old version:  sudo apt-get autoremove --purge pandoc  But when I check that everything is uninstalled by running: pandoc --version Then pandoc 2.2.3.2 pops up.  I can't seem to get rid of this old version of pandoc so that I can install a new one.  Could you advise me on how I can get rid of the old version and install the new one please. Hitting arrow keys adds characters in vi editor When I tried to use arrow keys in insert mode in vi editor the following characters are being inserted in the editor:   for ↓ I get B, for ↑ I get A, for ← I get D, for → I get C.   Please help me in resolve this problem. If $X_n \stackrel{d}{\to} X$ and $c_n \to c$, then $c_n \cdot X_n \stackrel{d}{\to} c \cdot X$ Let $X_n$, $X$ random variables on a probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{A},\mathbb{P})$ and $(c_n)_n \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $c \in \mathbb{R}$ such that $c_n \to c$ and $X_n \stackrel{d}{\to} X$. Then $c_n \cdot X_n \stackrel{d}{\to} c \cdot X$.   Here is my proof: By Lévy's continuity theorem it suffices to show that $$\forall \xi: \quad \hat{\mu}_n(c_n \cdot \xi) \to \hat{\mu}(c \cdot \xi) \qquad (n \to \infty)$$  where $\hat{\mu}_n$ (resp. $\hat{\mu}$) denotes the characteristic function of $X_n$ (resp. $X$). Using the tightness of the distributions one can show that $\{\hat{\mu}_n; n \in \mathbb{N}\}$ is uniformly equicontinuous. We have $$|\hat{\mu}_n(c_n \cdot \xi) - \hat{\mu}(c \cdot \xi)| \leq |\hat{\mu}_n(c_n \cdot \xi)- \hat{\mu}_n(c \cdot \xi)| + |\hat{\mu}_n(c \cdot \xi)- \hat{\mu}(c \cdot \xi)|$$ The first addend converges to zero as $n \to \infty$ by the uniform equicontinuity and the second one converges to zero since $X_n \stackrel{d}{\to} X$.  I was wondering whether there is an easier proof - my own proof seems rather like overkill to me. Thanks! Mask and inherit the same systemd unit Suppose a package provides whatever.service file so certain events (including whatever.socket) cause a daemon to start with a certain configuration.  I want to disable this completely. In particular, I want the old socket and any other unit files that might refer to this service by name to be unable to start the daemon.  Instead, I want to create my own unit files for this daemon with a different .socket unit and different environment variables. I also want my override to automatically take account of possible upstream updates to the original unit file (which my current solution of copying whatever.service as whatever-modified.service and editing it unfortunately does not provide).  If I create the following symlinks and files: /etc/systemd/system/whatever.service → /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/whatever-modified.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/whatever.service /etc/systemd/system/whatever-modified.service.d/fix.conf  systemd considers the new service to be masked as well and refuses to start it. How to avoid this? I want to calculate $$ \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\arctan{2t}}{e^{2\pi t}+1} \, {\rm d}t $$ and am wondering if there at all is an analytical expression for the result. I haven't tried much so far, but expressing the denominator as the geometric series and then substituting $z=2\pi t (n+1)$. Equivalently I get $$ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{{\rm si}\left(\pi(n+1)\right)}{2\pi (n+1)} $$ where $$ {\rm si}(x) = -\int_{x}^{\infty} \frac{\sin(t)}{t} \, {\rm d}t $$ is the shifted ${\rm Si}(x)$ function. The value is approximately $0.03618247146$, in fact I know from comparison with something else that it is exactly $\frac{\ln \pi -1}{4}$, but there should be some (direct) derivation, or?  Thanks for your input if you have any.  Edit: I tried to follow your instructions, but am now stuck. So I wrote $$ {\cal L}^{-1} \left(\frac{\psi(t)-\psi(1)}{t-1}\right)(s) =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{e^{-sn}}{n+1} = e^s \int_s^\infty \frac{{\rm d}x}{e^{x}-1} $$ and taking the Laplace-transform \begin{align} \psi(t) &amp;= \psi(1) + (t-1)\int_0^\infty {\rm d}s \, e^{-s(t-1)} \int_s^\infty \frac{{\rm d}x}{e^{x}-1} \\ &amp;= \psi(1) + (t-1) \int_0^\infty {\rm d}x \int_{0}^{x} {\rm d}s \, \frac{e^{-s(t-1)}}{e^{x}-1} \\ &amp;= \psi(1) + \int_{0}^{\infty} {\rm d}x \, \frac{1-e^{-x(t-1)}}{e^x-1} \tag{1} \\ &amp;= -\frac{1}{t} + \psi(1) + \int_0^\infty {\rm d}x \, \frac{1-e^{-tx}}{e^x-1} \tag{2} \\ &amp;= \dots \\ &amp;=-\sum_{k=0}^{n} \frac{1}{t+k} + \psi(1) + \int_0^\infty {\rm d}x \, \frac{1-e^{-(t+n)x}}{e^x-1} \\ &amp;\stackrel{(\rm{2})}{=} -\frac{1}{2t} + \ln(t) - \int_0^\infty {\rm d}x \, \left\{ \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{e^x-1}\right\} e^{-tx} \tag{Binet 1} \end{align} where $\psi(1)=-\gamma$.  Now we integrate over $t$ from $1$ to $y$ yielding $$ \ln \Gamma(y) \stackrel{({\rm 1})}{=} \psi(1)\,(y-1) + \int_0^\infty {\rm d}x \, \frac{y-1+\frac{e^{-x(y-1)}-1}{x}}{e^x-1} $$ but what now? Substitute?

I've got a layer of polygons where each has a date associated with it.  I want to color the polygons with graduated colors, but I want the colors to start with the newest polygons and fade to the oldest polygons.  So far I haven't been able to find a way to do this in ArcMap (&lt;= 9.3.1) other than to create a new field and calculate some integer or float value based on the date.  Is it possible to use a date or time field directly?   The data is natively a date-time value There are far too many records to use any unique-value renderer Converting the date to a numerical field is an answer for a different question. I have some basic data on emission reductions and cost per car:  q24 &lt;- read.table(text = "reductions  cost.per.car     50  45     55  55     60  62     65  70     70  80     75  90     80  100     85  200     90  375     95  600     ",header = TRUE, sep = "")   I know that this is an exponential function, so I expect to be able to find a model that fits with:      model &lt;- nls(cost.per.car ~ a * exp(b * reductions) + c,           data = q24,           start = list(a=1, b=1, c=0))   but I'm getting an error:   Error in nlsModel(formula, mf, start, wts) :    singular gradient matrix at initial parameter estimates   I've read through  on the error I'm seeing and I'm gathering that the problem is probably that I need better/different start values (the initial parameter estimates makes a little more sense) but I'm not sure, given the data that I have, how I'd go about estimating better parameters. Does Windows use the fastest drive for the page file? Suppose I have a 6 GB page file on an SSD and another 6 GB page file on a traditional mechanical 5400rpm SATA drive.  Does Windows take into account the difference in the performance characteristics between the two drives when deciding which page file to use?  If it matters, I'm asking about Windows 7 and higher.  I reviewed this  but it doesn't appear to factor in the case of dissimilar storage speeds. I made a hair particle system and set the Dupli Group to a group of 3 objects. Each of the 3 objects has:   it's origin set to be touching the XY plane (on layer 2) it's Scale applied to 1 and it's Rotation applied to 0     I am trying to get each of the objects to sit directly on top of the ground, but instead, they are centered in the plane, half above the plane and half below the plane:      What am I doing wrong?
