Is it possible to show a warning when laptop battery gets down to 20% remaining battery life?
Windows 7 low and critical battery levels cannot be set lower than 10%
How to prove $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 \ge ab + bc + ca$? How can the following inequation be proven?  $$a^2 + b^2 + c^2 \ge ab + bc + ca$$ I guess I can live with the fact that the  changes size drastically when he transforms, but why does his shirt rip off and not his pants?  I think that we need a little better answer than "it keeps us tied to the fact that inside he's still human". OK guys I have this problem:  For $x,y,p,q&gt;0$ and $ \frac {1} {p} + \frac {1}{q}=1 $ prove that $ xy \leq\frac{x^p}{p} + \frac{y^q}{q}$  It says I should use Jensen's inequality, but I can't figure out how to apply it in this case. Any ideas about the solution? I've been reading a lot about dual-booting, and it seems as easy as loading Windows and then loading Linux with GRUB, but everybody says that Windows loves to trash GRUB when it gets the opportunity. What are some steps I can take to prevent this from happening (other than using Windows' bootloader, I want to keep this as simple as possible)? How do I read image files directly from a zip without extracting to disk? Children’s books, one in space setting, the other in a jungle I can intuitively understand that there are infinitely many irreducible polynomials in $\Bbb{F}_p[X]$, where $p$ is a prime number, but I'm having a hard time actually proving it. What proof strategy should I take for this? Graphics crop in guest welcome window I don't expect that any user should have noticed this, since only guests will see them.  Well, it seems that the Stack Overflow welcome splash, containing the basic info of the site, is cropped from the bottom.    Please don't mind the sides, I cropped them to fit on the screen. Just on the bottom is my concern. How exactly do I install Minecraft Mods and what is Forge? I'm having a really, really hard time figuring out how to install mods on Minecraft. I've looked everywhere I can think of for help but the information is almost always outdated or unhelpful.  I've seen on several sites about the use of something called Forge. The Mod I want to use requires 1.6.4 Forge and I have both Forge and the Mod folders sitting in my downloads folder.  I haven't installed any kind of mods for any game prior to this and I have little clue to the technical side of Minecraft, so please keep this in mind when you give me an answer please!  Things that might help you figure out how to help me:   I want to play this mod  and am using the 1.6.4 Forge given on a link that website gives Find $f$ if $ f(x)+f\left(\frac{1}{1-x}\right)=x $ Find $f$ if $$ f(x)+f\left(\frac{1}{1-x}\right)=x $$ I think, that I have to find x that $f(x) = f\left(\frac{1}{1-x}\right)$ I've tried to put x which make $x = \frac{1}{1 - x}$, but this equation has no roots in real numbers. Factoring Quadratics Is there a method to find which numbers to use when simplifying quadratics?   For example $x^2 + 5x + 6$ is easy enough to find, but what if I have bigger numbers, or I have this quadratic expression: $x^2 + 7x – 6$, then it gets very hard to think of a valid simplification.  EDIT: Here's an example: $(x^2 + 5x + 6)/(x + 2)$. When simplifying the first half we get $(x + 2)(x + 3)/(x + 2)$, then we can cancel out $(x + 2)$ and the answer would be $(x + 3)$. The question is: How to always find the right numbers which to put in? (in this example they where 2 and 3) This next year, I am helping an effort to clean several SQL Server environments.    We have about 10,000 stored procedures and estimate that only about 1000 of them are used on a regular basis, and another 200 or so are used on a rare occasion, meaning we have a lot of work to do.    Since we have multiple departments and teams that can access these databases and procedures, we are not always the ones calling the procedures, meaning that we must determine what procedures are being called.  On top of that, we want to determine this over a few months, not in a few days (which eliminates some possibilities).  One approach to this is to use the SQL Server Profiler and track what procedures are being called and compare them to the list of what procedures we have, while marking whether the procedures are used or not.  From then, we could move the procedures to a different schema in case a department comes screaming.  Is using the Profiler the most effective approach here?  And/Or have any of you done something similar and found another way/better way to do this? How to circumvent using an out parameter in an anonymous method block? The following method does not compile. Visual Studio warns "An out parameter may not be used within an anonymous method". The WithReaderLock(Proc action) method takes a delegate void Proc().  public Boolean TryGetValue(TKey key, out TValue value) {     Boolean got = false;     WithReaderLock(delegate     {         got = dictionary.TryGetValue(key, out value);     });     return got; }   What's the best way to get this behavior? (Please refrain from providing advice on threadsafe dictionaries, this question is intended to solve the out parameter problem in general). I have the following code that shows either a bug or a misunderstanding on my part.  I sent the same list, but modified over an ObjectOutputStream.  Once as [0] and other as [1].  But when I read it, I get [0] twice.  I think this is caused by the fact that I am sending over the same object and ObjectOutputStream must be caching them somehow.  Is this work as it should, or should I file a bug?   import java.io.*; import java.net.*; import java.util.*;  public class OOS {      public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {         Thread t1 = new Thread(new Runnable() {             public void run() {                 try {                     ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(12344);                     Socket s= ss.accept();                      ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());                     List same = new ArrayList();                     same.add(0);                     oos.writeObject(same);                     same.clear();                     same.add(1);                     oos.writeObject(same);                  } catch(Exception e) {                     e.printStackTrace();                 }             }         });         t1.start();          Socket s = new Socket("localhost", 12344);         ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(s.getInputStream());          // outputs [0] as expected         System.out.println(ois.readObject());          // outputs [0], but expected [1]         System.out.println(ois.readObject());         System.exit(0);     } } I am developing an offline installer for all versions of Ubuntu, and I need Ubuntu's default installed packages list. Is there a way to get this information from any server (web server)? Any script to fetch any Ubuntu version's default installed packages list.  I will give the Ubuntu version, and the script will fetch the packages list.  Note: I need at least a server address. I can write a script for this. How to evaluate this trigonometric limit? I have been struggling to solve this limit.  What is the limit as $x$ approaches $45^0$ of $$\frac{\sqrt{2}\cos x-1}{\cot x-1}?$$   I know how to use L'Hospital's rule to calculate this limit and got the answer as $0.5$. But, how do I calculate the limit by manipulating the function? Please provide only some hints to proceed. I'm using LyX for technical documentation and want to automate the process of creating PDF files.  Within LyX, I can simply click the button "View PDF (XeTeX)", and LyX performs the whole build process for me: it creates a .tex file, does some bibliography magic, and uses XeTeX to create the final PDF file.  What I'm looking for is a way to call LyX from the command line and get the same result. So far, I've only managed to generate a plain .tex file (using --export-to xetex). However, when I run xelatex on the generated file, it keeps showing errors that don't occur when building using LyX. Is there a way to get LyX to do the work?  My system: Windows 7 64bit, LyX 2.1.0 How to show $a^{2^n}+1 \mid a^{2^m}-1$? I've been struggling with this all day today. I imagine it's not very hard, but my algebra skills are terrible. So, how can I show that if $m&gt;n$ and $a$ is a positive integer, then $$a^{2^n}+1 \mid a^{2^m}-1.$$ I just can't get a coherent picture of what I'm supposed to do. If this too (see yesterday's question) boils down to the Unique Factorization Theorem, I would be very grateful for any intuition on how to think about this! Access to journals for individuals outside of an institution? For all that is said about the wealth of information that is freely available on the internet, the fact is that most of it is incomplete, dumbed down, lacking in context or downright wrong.   Individuals spend the best part of 20 years completely oblivious to the existence of journals and the process of peer review and even then we'd be lucky if 10% of those with access to journals (usually through an institution) actually bother to invest in them.   Granted that some journals will be totally inaccessible to those without a solid background in some particular field but by and large exposure is a good thing and there are many areas of research where individuals will benefit directly from having read these.  Where does this come from?  I decided I wanted to read Popular Politics in the Late Medieval City: York and Bruge in The English Historical Review today, mainly because it looks interesting and I'm hoping to invest more time into learning about British and European History. Incidentally I also wouldn't mind tucking into Super Stable Clocks, Nature 500, 505 (29 August 2013) and a number of data analysis and big data journals in order to advance my career.   Now, not being affiliated with an institution that subscribes to these journals means that I would typically have to pay between £5 ($10) and £15 ($25) per article that I read... I could probably spend £100 just to pass an hour by.  Question   What's being done to address the lockdown on 'higher' education material? I've noticed that the Directory of Open Access Journals publishes open articles and other firms are doing similar, mainly with journals in new fields? How could I, as an individual outside of an institution, gain journal access without it costing so much money? When voting to migrate an off-topic question, why is the list of sites limited? Earlier, I voted to close  as off-topic.  The question has since been closed.  There is an , but it didn't show up in the list when I selected "off-topic".  The options were:   Meta Stack Overflow Server Fault Super User Webmasters Programmers   Questions:   Should Wordpress appear in this list? Are there any other sites that should appear in the list?   Should all non-beta sites appear in that list by default?
