Since I've made small upgrades from upgrade manager, I started getting this unusual starting process (line of codes).    After that, my OS is fully loaded, but I want to make this as need.
Is there a way to easily turn on/off showing the boot messages (loading the services) when Ubuntu starts? Is it something in Grub2?  I am running 10.04.
What is difference between: "I have been married with (was married with, married) her for three years." What is the difference between the three sentences below?   I have been married with her for three years. I was married with her for three years. I married her for three years. How to find out client ID of component for ajax update/render?

UPDATE - this issue also happens when attempting to install ubuntu 18.10 using LiveUSB Syntactic characterisation of the intersection of CTL and LTL Show that if $\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}\neq 0$, then $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}) = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a},\sqrt{b}), \forall a,b\in\mathbb{Q}$ Why don't they use the transporter in the final fight in Star Trek Into Darkness? When Spock was chasing, and beating, Khan over a transport in San Francisco, Uhura orders them beamed both back  to the Enterprise, while Chekov says something like:     Its impossible, they are moving!                                   But in the first movie, it was Chekov that transported back to Kirk and Sulu, avoiding hitting the Vulcan planet when trying to disable the Romulan drilling platform. How did half of Darth Maul survive? Ubuntu copy dialogue stops at the last moment for a long time Whenever I try and copy a file to an USB flash disk, the progress bar runs till the end very fast and stops for an indeterminable time before it is complete.  Is there an issue with ubuntu or my flash disk is what I am not able to figure out. All I want is a realistic copy dialogue Question list on Stack Overflow is not showing new question Dynamic date range query I'm trying to create two cells that will update my query: A >= date"A1" and A &lt;= date "B1".  My goal is to create a search page for the data, where the end user could insert a date or the =today() function and it would update the query. I am currently getting a formula parse error from:  =QUERY(Data!6:1397,"SELECT A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L WHERE A &gt;= date"A1"and  A &lt;= date"B1"") The book Theory of Functions of a Real Variable by I. P. Natanson, proves that a denumerable or finite union of pairwise disjoint sets of cardinality $c$ has cardinality $c$.  The proofs given in the book are fairly easy, using the axiom of choice. But then it is left as an exercise a generalization of the above theorems for not necessarily pairwise disjoint sets.  I have searched all over the web, but all the proofs found so far are for pairwise disjoint sets.  The proof given in the book relies on the fact that each set $A_k$ can be matched with a set like $[a_{k-1},a_k)$, with $a_k$ point of a partition of $[0,1]$, such that $\bigcup_{k=1}^{\infty\lor n}A_k=[0,1)$. So it is easy to guess the bijective function, but I can't generalize this proof.  Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks and regards. Euclidean Algorithm for GCD of polynomials I am struggling to use the Euclidean algorithm for polynomials.  Given something like $$GCD(x^5+1, x^3+1)$$  I can easily use it as follows:   $$x^5+1 = x^2(x^3+1) -x^2 +1 \\ x^3+1 = -x(-x^2+1) + x +1 \\ -x^2+1 = (x+1)(-x+1)$$  GCD = x+1  But for something like $$GCD(2x^2+6x+3, 2x+1)$$   I cannot figure out how to do it using the same method. I start like this:  $$2x^2+6x+3 = x(2x+1) + 5x+3\\ 2x+1 = \frac{2}{5}(5x+3) - \frac{1}{5}\\$$  and I am not sure how to continue. Any help would be appreciated, sorry for my poor attempt at using LaTeX. In my experience, input type="text" onchange event usually occurs only after you leave (blur) the control.  Is there a way to force browser to trigger onchange every time textfield content changes? If not, what is the most elegant way to track this “manually”?  Using onkey* events is not reliable, since you can right-click the field and choose Paste, and this will change the field without any keyboard input.  Is setTimeout the only way?.. Ugly :-) Why isn't Higgs coupling considered a fifth fundamental force? When I first learned about the four fundamental forces of nature, I assumed that they were just the only four kind of interactions there were. But after learning a little field theory, there are many other kinds of couplings, even in the standard model. So why isn't the Yukawa Higgs coupling considered a fifth fundamental force? To be a fundamental force, does there need to be a gauge boson mediating it? What does it mean by 'bringing him gasping to all fours' in Harry potter? Immediately, his insides started writhing as though he'd just swallowed live snakes -- doubled up, he wondered whether he was going to be sick -- then a burning sensation spread rapidly form his stomach to the very ends of his fingers and toes -- next, bringing him gasping to all fours, came to a horrible melting feeling, as the skin all over his body bubbled like hot wax -- and before their eyes, his hands began to grow, the fingers thickened, the knuckles were bulging like bolts -- his shoulders stretched painfully and a prickling on his forehead told him that his hair was creeping down toward his eyebrows -- his robes ripped as his chest expanded like a barrel bursting its hoops -- his feet were agony in shoes four sizes too small      Harry potter and the chamber of secrets   It is the description of the feeling of drinking Polyjuice Potion, which makes someone into a different person, from the point of view of Harry Potter turning into Gregory Goyle.  And I don't understand what 'bring him gasping to all fours' means, especially 'four'. Does four here mean number 4? How to find out the terminal command of an application? This is problem #6 from Section 1.2 of Ash's Real Variables With Basic Metric Space Topology.   I am asked to show that it is impossible to list the rational numbers in increasing order.   While I know it is possible to list a finite subset of the rational numbers in increasing order, I was wondering if the reason for the impossibility in this case is because there is no least element of $\mathbb{Q}$?   I mean, it's possible to impose an ordering on $\mathbb{Q}$ (correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems possible to compare any two rationals).  But the set $\mathbb{Q}$ is of course, a subset of itself, and the Well-Ordering Principle says that a set $S$ is Well-Ordered only if any subset of $S$ contains a minimal element. Since $\mathbb{Q}$ does not contain a minimal element, it does not appear that it is a Well-Ordered set.   Is this the correct idea as to why it's impossible? If not, could somebody explain to me what the correct idea is and a strategy for proving it?  Thank you ahead of time. How to make `sudo` preserve $PATH? I have a program that is installed in a custom directory under /opt. To make it easier to run it, I edited my bashrc to add said directory to my path: export PATH=$PATH:/opt/godi/bin:/opt/godi/sbin  This works fine if I want to run the program without sudo. However, if I try to run it with sudo it fails with a &quot;command not found&quot; error. $ sudo godi_console sudo: godi_console: command not found  Inspecting the PATH variable after using sudo reveals that its not including the same PATH I have as a normal user: $ sudo sh # echo $PATH                  /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin  Why is the PATH not the same? Am I doing something wrong? I'm on Debian Jessie, if it makes a difference. One thing I tried was to invoke /opt/godi/sbin/godi_console directly, passing the absolute path to the executable. Unfortunatelly, that didn't help in this particular case because godi_console itself depends on the PATH being correctly set. I would like to know if anyone can help me with installing Ubuntu on VirtualBox How do I disable the alt-right click keyboard binding? Using Oneiric 11.10 and Unity. I want to disable the context menu that appears with Alt+RightClick. Alt+RightClick is a much used shortcut in Blender. It's possible to remap keys in Blender, but I was hoping to be able to turn it off in Ubuntu so that Blender get scontrol. I update my Blender installation often, so it's more convenient not to have to change settings every time.
