I searched stack and net for use gif in beamer presentation. most of result are about at-least for two or three years ago. most of them used converted images, and some of them had serious problem with frames, autoplay, footline and so on. now my question is after these years there is not a simple way to use gif in beamer presentation. if problem is with readers is there any plugin for reader softwares to handle this problem?  as you see this  asked 2 years ago but still do not have best answer mark.  as matter of fact I hope there be a way that \includegraphic support gif or new command or package created to solve this issue.  using gif in presentation is very common today, and still hope developers who are joined this site pay much attention to it.
I'm very new to presentations in LaTeX (I've been using PowerPoint for years but have finally converted). I am wondering how to get a GIF into a section. If need be, I can convert a GIF into lots of pictures and have them overlay to give the impression of movement.
How to install wps office via terminal? It's pretty complicated and sometimes the system freezes when I try to download and install wps office. I think it is much more convenient to use the terminal. But I never used installed WPS Office from the command line. That would be great if I could update it using software manager or terminal. Third party deb files are from separate locations. I specifically want to know about WPS What do potential postdoc advisers seek in research statement letters? I am putting together my application for a postdoctoral position in theoretical condensed matter physics. The position is not a fellowship and is a regular postdoc position. If you have gone through the process of applying for such positions a number of times, or, even better, if you have reviewed such research statement letters, what are the main points that are sought/you seek in such letters? Specifically, should I put more emphasize on my PhD research to demonstrate my "depth of knowledge" on projects I have worked on (past research), or dwell more on things that I want/am capable to do (future research)? What prevents photons from getting mass from higher order Feynman diagrams The Higgs boson and gluons have no electric charge and photons couple to charge, so there is no tree level interaction between them and photons.  But what prevents higher order diagrams from contributing a non-zero mass term to the photon, for instance    where a photon couples to some fermion (say an electron, or a top quark) which can interact with the Higgs field.   Or consider that same diagram but with quarks and a gluon interacting between them? Or any higher diagram with even more loops?  I have heard charge conservation depends on gauge invariance, which in turn depends on photons being massless.  So it appears the photon has no mass, and these diagrams must all cancel somehow.  So I'm hoping there is a very nice symmetry explanation for why they all disappear, but if I say "because of gauge invariance" that would be circular logic, so there must be another symmetry at stake here?     What prevents photons from obtaining a mass from high-order self-energy loop diagrams? Why is there "Germany National Team", not "German National Team"? Why is the team from Germany called "Germany National Team", not "German National Team"? On official Internet sites, it is the same for every official national team; Germany National, France National, Poland National, Russia National etc. etc. What truthfully bothers me is why not German, French, Polish, Russian etc? I'm supposed to calculate: $$\lim_{n\to\infty} e^{-n} \sum_{k=0}^{n} \frac{n^k}{k!}$$ By using WolframAlpha, I might guess that the limit is $\frac{1}{2}$, which is a pretty interesting and nice result. I wonder in which ways we may approach it. Lost my old passport for Schengen visa application What is a good word to describe 'exceptional positive' research work? Most efficient way to convert an HTMLCollection to an Array Is there a more efficient way to convert an HTMLCollection to an Array, other than iterating through the contents of said collection and manually pushing each item into an array? Why must $a$ and $b$ both be coprime when proving that the square root of two is irrational? Suppose we wish to prove that the square root of two is irrational. We begin by assuming that it is rational.  Namely, where both $a$ and $b$ are integers $$\frac{a}{b} = \sqrt 2  % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+- % faaagCart1ev2aaaKnaaaaWenf2ys9wBH5garuavP1wzZbqedmvETj % 2BSbqefm0B1jxALjharqqtubsr4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0x % bbL8FesqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaq % pepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-xfr-xb9Gqpi0dc9adbaqaaeGaciGa % aiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaWaaSaaaeaacaWGHbaabaGaamOyaaaacq % GH9aqpdaGcaaqaaiaaikdaaSqabaaaaa!31D3! $$  Why is it so important that both $a$ and $b$ be coprime and the fraction be irreducible?

I'm setting up my MacBook Air for a Windows-only boot setup. This was easy enough. It already had rEFIt on it, I just connected a Windows 7 boot thumb drive, and away I went.  However, it seems Apple does not let you download Bootcamp drivers outside of their assistant tool. Reinstalling OS X just for the drivers is ridiculous.  This laptop no longer has OS X on it at all. How do I get the required drivers? I cannot find them anywhere on Apple's support pages.  Every other manufacturer has their drivers available for download.   How do I download the Windows drivers for my 2010 MacBook Air without the BootCamp Assistant?

Blender 2.78 file size grows and does never shrink I made a huge project, wanted to reduce file size from 1.3GB to below 1GB. Compressing did not help. I removed objects from scene. Also textures. I then realized, the file size even was the same when I delete ALL objects. Why?  Download of sample:   Before deleting all: 1.2GB, after: 1.1GB.
