What happens with lethargy when Haste is cast again on a creature before first cast runs out?
I have customers who want to buy large amount of flash memories but he wants to copyright all files inside it.   The flash will contain files that will be delivered for his customers but they're not allowed to copy or delete any of the files the only allowed permission is to ready the files.   I searched and found many solutions but all have on function it WriteProtect the USB though I can't add files to Drive at all but I can delete or copy any file in the drive.   Is there any way to protect the flash memory so I can't copy data out of it? Is the set of points in the plane whose coordinates are either both irrational, or both rational connected? I've had a few concerns over a new form of &quot;spam&quot; - that is, through voting. A while back, I had seen some wild reputation increases to my account, amongst others, that seemingly felt weird - as I've barely participated in asking questions or providing answers. Earlier today, this sentiment was echoed by another user in chat:  and like 250 this month? it seems like someone is spam upvoting  This was another user that saw a 250 rep increase, but has been inactive for quite a while. For a site that hasn't seen more than 5 questions a day, that was really weird. To put things even more out of hand, it seems like each vote has been placed on a question.  I did some investigation of my own, and it seems like I've found a badge hunter. More of a... gold badge hunter. This user is among the top 3 voters of the site. Looking into this user's profile, this user only has under 200 rep, and has posted a single question, which was received differently. One thing caught my eye:  Votes all time              by type 581   up              535    question 1     down            47     answer   Each vote is an up vote (with the exception of one), and there are 535 up votes on questions. There are 535 questions in the entire site. Using reputation stats from user profiles, I came with the conclusion that these votes are...  Done within a short period of time. 5 question votes within a couple of minutes Done in [near] perfect chronological order: The earlier the vote, the earlier the question was asked. As if the user had gone through the list of questions in order, and placed an up vote on each one.   I see this as incredibly problematic. First:  It dangerously inflates reputation. Votes are not done based on their content, but simply for voting. Therefore, reputation loses it value as a way to measure expertise.  It's like serial up voting. Generally, when we hear the term &quot;serial up voting&quot;, we think of a voting ring, where one user continuously up votes another. This is negative for the targeted user. Well, here, we've got a voting ring with the site and this user. A user continuously up votes the site, causing negative damage for the site.  We mix good and bad content. Since low quality questions are a victim of the voting spree, many get meddled with the rest of &quot;good quality&quot; questions, despite being closed as off-topic, too broad, or whatever the reason. We can no longer reliably sort questions by quality with the very system that was designed to help us.   ... And the rest of voting fraud issues outlined in .  I've got a couple questions on this:  Is this comparable to serial voting? Should such votes be reversed? How should we determine whether or not to reverse them?  Should we stop this? Let it be? Is this really that big of a problem for sites? (I would argue that it's less of an issue for graduated sites that receive large amounts of content, but what about beta sites that rarely see more than a few questions a day) How do I delete a board when the admin is no longer part of the group? One of our programmers decided to leave us. We took him off the group, but his board that he is the only admin of is still hanging around. How do I remove it? What are the proper uses of:   static_cast dynamic_cast const_cast reinterpret_cast C-style cast (type)value Function-style cast type(value)   How does one decide which to use in which specific cases? What is a good non-technical introduction to theories of everything? I need to make this equation in LateX but I get some errors when i try to do that.    Can you help me please?? He will understand that I was not joking.   He will understand I was not joking.  Which of the sentences is correct? Are there any specific rules about the use of &quot;that&quot; in the sentences I reported as example? I was just reviewing my "capitalization standards" for titles and such and was wondering if there's a macro to do the same thing I'm forced to do by hand nowadays. My personal rules (feel free to disagree/comment on them) are as follows:   the first letter (a number is a letter too for the sake of these rules) always gets capitalized, every word gets capitalized individually, the exception to the rule above (and just the rule above) are  such as prepositions and the like.   In other words: I'd like a capitalization command (like \MakeUppercase) that will capitalize every word not included in a list of words and that will always capitalize the first word of its argument.  Doable?  PS: one such "list" of closed class words (also known as "function words") can be found . How does one use circular polarizers? launch app, capture stdout and stderr in c++ double perpendicular symbol (for independence) I found from  that I could use the independence symbol:     \newcommand\independent{\protect\mathpalette{\protect\independenT}{\perp}} \def\independenT#1#2{\mathrel{\rlap{$#1#2$}\mkern2mu{#1#2}}}    I was wondering how this works. Can anybody explain? I don't know the commands mathpalette, rlap, and mkern2mu. i was stopped by my sister from upgrading Ubuntu, for the reason she explained was that i would have to reinstall all the softwares that I've installed in last 6 months. but i think if that's the case, the upgrade itself includes all softwares that i have installed. so please tell me what's the truth?     please note that i just can't afford mentally to reinstall all apps due to slow INTERNET speed.because it may take 3 to 4 days of constant downloading.   if you are an Indian living in an suburban city,you can understand my situation.   i think the question itself explains everything.still I'll explain everything in detail.i want to upgrade my current Ubuntu 12.10 OS to 13.10(now please don't ask what is 13.10). this option is available from "about this computer" and many other places.the upgrade is of about 700mb to 800 MB.    BTW, i don't know why i think it's a rule here to put some question on questions asked here,however detailed or/and simple it may be.at least that's what i feel after looking at many questions. What is the standard team composition for a conquest game? I'm very new to Smite, and I'm wondering if there is some kind of standard team composition in high level play, comparable to the top, jungle, mid, dual lane meta in LoL.  What are the roles, and where should they go to start the game? I got this question in my maths paper     Test the condition for convergence of $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n(n+1)(n+2)}$$   and find the sum if it exists.   I managed to show that the series converges but I was unable to find the sum. Any help/hint will go a long way. Thank you. I am looking at this:    I need to create a boot disk to test Ubuntu to make sure it will run on a PC (Compaq Mini CQ10-120LA) I was given. I can create the boot disk off of a Mac (in English) or Windows (but Windows is in Spanish and foreign to me).   Questions:     What format do I choose for the USB stick? (I wish the instructions stated this). What is Dash? (Will I know when I run the installer?) Can I do this from a Mac or Windows computer? Or only from Ubuntu? How do I install Ubuntu from an USB drive / create a live USB-stick in Windows? how to convert NTFS to ext4 in windows? A symmetric operator has only real eigenvalues and different eigenvectors corresponding to different eigenvalues are orthogonal.   These are exactly what we want for a physical observable. I think this is the all required.   So why is quantum mechanics not satisfied with symmetric operators, but wants more? Multiple Inheritance in C# Since multiple inheritance is bad (it makes the source more complicated) C# does not provide such a pattern directly. But sometimes it would be helpful to have this ability. For instance I'm able to implement the missing multiple inheritance pattern using interfaces and three classes like that: public interface IFirst { void FirstMethod(); } public interface ISecond { void SecondMethod(); }  public class First:IFirst  {      public void FirstMethod() { Console.WriteLine(&quot;First&quot;); }  }  public class Second:ISecond  {      public void SecondMethod() { Console.WriteLine(&quot;Second&quot;); }  }  public class FirstAndSecond: IFirst, ISecond {     First first = new First();     Second second = new Second();     public void FirstMethod() { first.FirstMethod(); }     public void SecondMethod() { second.SecondMethod(); } }  Every time I add a method to one of the interfaces I need to change the class FirstAndSecond as well. Is there a way to inject multiple existing classes into one new class like it is possible in C++? Maybe there is a solution using some kind of code generation? Or it may look like this (imaginary c# syntax): public class FirstAndSecond: IFirst from First, ISecond from Second { }  So that there won't be a need to update the class FirstAndSecond when I modify one of the interfaces.  EDIT Maybe it would be better to consider a practical example: You have an existing class (e.g. a text based TCP client based on ITextTcpClient) which you do already use at different locations inside your project.  Now you feel the need to create a component of your class to be easy accessible for windows forms developers. As far as I know you currently have two ways to do this:  Write a new class that is inherited from components and implements the interface of the TextTcpClient class using an instance of the class itself as shown with FirstAndSecond.  Write a new class that inherits from TextTcpClient and somehow implements IComponent (haven't actually tried this yet).   In both cases you need to do work per method and not per class. Since you know that we will need all the methods of TextTcpClient and Component it would be the easiest solution to just combine those two into one class. To avoid conflicts this may be done by code generation where the result could be altered afterwards but typing this by hand is a pure pain in the ass.
