On my mac if I go to  I get:  On windows I get:  Is there any way to download the ISO without being required of downloading the update first? The reason is that my windows experience never really get's better after windows updates, and I kind of don't care about them anymore. They fail half the time and apart from security, they add nothing of value as far as I can tell.
I need to repair my Windows 10 installation. Where can I get a clean ISO (with install.wim, no Install.ESD, so that I can run DISM against the WIM) of the specific Windows 10 build required for this?  In my case, I need the Anniversary update (Build 14393), Creators Update (Build 15063) or Fall Creators Update (Build 16299.15).
My question might appear the same as the question , but actually I did read all the answers and none of them helped me with the details I need.  I am new to cryptography and my problem is with two time pad attacks on OTP. The problem I had in my course was that I have 10 ciphertexts encrypted with the same key $K$. I am then given another ciphertext that I should decrypt.  I know that XOR-ing two ciphers gives me the XOR of their original messages.  My question is what is the correct thing to do after that?  I tried to take 3 ciphertexts $C_1, C_2$ and $C_3$.  Then get $S_1 = C_1 \oplus C_2  \oplus $' ', also get $S_2 = C_1 \oplus C_3 \oplus$ ' '.  After that I compared all corresponding characters in $S_1$ and $S_2$,  and if $S_1[i] = S_2[i]$ then I calculate $S_1[i] \oplus C_2[i]$ to get $K[i]$.  I tried this on paper before coding and it worked, but I might be missing something.  Is this the right approach? Why does it work? There is a restriction on setting your birthday:     Oops! There was a problem updating your profile:   - Birthday must be after 1920/01/01   I realize the number of 90 year old users is small, but shouldn't the restriction be a bit more relaxed, such as larger than any ?  Either 120 or 150 seems appropriate.  For example, my grandfather turns 90 next year (and just barely misses the current cutoff), but I can't imagine he's the only one around that age who is computer literate and still active enough to be interested in (the increasingly broad range of) SE sites.  I don't think he has contributed yet (mostly because of the comment restriction, I'd see him commenting before asking or answering), but I have emailed him with links that I know he's read.  Incidentally, the error message is wrong: birthday must be after 1919/12/31 and using the next day is accepted. Change the location of .bashrc Is it possible to change the location of .bashrc from /home/orhanc/.bashrc to some other directory? If $\phi$ is a homomorphism from the group $G$ with identity $e$ to the group $G'$ with identity $e'$, then $\phi$ is injective if and only if $\ker\phi=$?  I think the $Ker\phi = \{x\in G:\phi(x)=1\}$  because you are looking at an identity then it is all reals $0$ does not work a because if $x=0, e'x=0$  but then i realize it is injective how does that affect the kernel? Messed up my PATH environment variable and can't login to desktop To get an maven environment variable to run, I tried several options. Basically, I followed some options from , such as ~/.pam_environment, /etc/bash.bashrc and I don't really know anymore. Within them I exported sth like export PATH=/opt/apache-maven-3.6.0/bin:$PATH (I'm being so unconcrete because I cannot look it up).   Afterwards, I did run gnome-session-quit and my machine got stuck.   So after hard restart I try to login again, but I'm not able to do that: I see my username, enter the password, hit enter, screen turns black and after 2 seconds I'm back at the login screen.   So, that very strange and worrying. Next step: Login via tty (Strg + ALT + F3). Within there I can login, but can not do much. I thought about sth like . But whatever I do: The command could not be located because '\bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable. I think, altogether thats alarming and I'm getting really nervous.  Executing export PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH seems to work and echo $PATHgives an output starting with /usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/home/user/Documents/.../esper/examples/transaction/etc:/home/user/anaconda3/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64/bin:/opt/apache-maven-3.6.0/bin:/opt/apache-maven-3.6.0/bin:/opt/apache-maven-3.6.0/bin but does not really help.  I'm running an Ubuntu 18.04 on an Lenovo G50-70.   Can you help me accessing my desktop again and/or fixing my PATH issue?

Etiquette for revision comments Add new item in existing array in c#.net How to add new item in existing string array in C#.net?  I need to preserve the existing data. Triggered send status queued, need to get an alert In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets it is revealed that      Ginny is being possessed by Tom Riddle and is the one opening the Chamber of Secrets.   The book seems relatively without holes in this regard.  However in the movie when Harry discovers Justin Flinch-Fletchley we see moments prior to this      Ginny is studying in a room full of people.   This implies that the person opening the chamber of secrets couldn't have been in the chamber when the second attack occurs.  Is this just a goof in the movie or is there an alternate explanation for this?  Is the Basilisk acting on its own in the movie? How can I dual boot Windows and Ubuntu?

All my other stuff is there - Mutt, Meld, jEdit, BOINC, etc., only Firefox is missing. I have no ~/.config/awesome/ directory, so there should be no override in place. Ok, after seeing , I have decided to skip to the end and go with .  So what I need is a beginner's practical guide to Git.  "Beginner" being defined as someone who knows how to handle their compiler, understands to some level what a  is, and has touched source control without understanding it very well.  "Practical" being defined as this person doesn't want to get into great detail regarding what Git is doing in the background, and doesn't even care (or know) that it's distributed.  Your answers might hint at the possibilities, but try to aim for the beginner that wants to keep a 'main' repository on a 'server' which is backed up and secure, and treat their local repository as merely a 'client' resource.  So:  Installation/Setup    How do you set up Git?  Try to cover Linux, Windows, Mac, think 'client/server' mindset.         Working with the code          How do you handle binary files (visio docs, for instance, or compiler environments)? How do you merge files changed at the "same time"?    Tagging, branching, releases, baselines    How do you pull a particular 'release'?   How do you resolve conflicts and complete the merge? How do you merge parts of one branch into another branch?        Other   Describe and link to a good GUI, IDE plugin, etc. that makes Git a non-command line resource, but please list its limitations as well as its good.    - Cross platform, included with Git  - Cross platform history viewer, included with Git  - Mac OS X  - Mac OS X history viewer  - Cross platform, commercial, beta  - console GUI for Linux  - GUI for Windows, Linux  - package for Windows, includes friendly GUI  Any other common tasks a beginner should know?     How do I work effectively with a subversion repository set as my source control source?   Other Git beginner's references                 Delving into Git     (and )    I will go through the entries from time to time and 'tidy' them up so they have a consistent look/feel and it's easy to scan the list - feel free to follow a simple "header - brief explanation - list of instructions - gotchas and extra info" template.  I'll also link to the entries from the bullet list above so it's easy to find them later. A non-blocking read on a subprocess.PIPE in Python I'm using the  to start a subprocess and connect to its output stream (standard output). I want to be able to execute non-blocking reads on its standard output. Is there a way to make .readline non-blocking or to check if there is data on the stream before I invoke .readline? I'd like this to be portable or at least work under Windows and Linux. Here is how I do it for now (it's blocking on the .readline if no data is available): p = subprocess.Popen('myprogram.exe', stdout = subprocess.PIPE) output_str = p.stdout.readline() I have applied recently for a general visitor visa to the UK to spend 10 days during Christmas with my British unmarried partner and it has been turned down.   The Entry Clearance Officer stated on his refusal notice the following:     I note that you have never previously travelled to the UK or any country with similar immigration requirements and you therefore do not have a history of travel and compliance to consider.      You have submitted an employment letter to confirm your occupation in KSA but I am required to also assess your personal, domestic and economic circumstances in determining whether you are genuine visitor travelling to the UK for the period and purpose you state.      You claim an income of SAR ........ per month which equal ........ GBP and from the evidence submitted this appears to be your sole source of income.   I note that this monthly income is reflected on your bank statements. However, the bank statement you have presented show a recent large deposit that are in excess of your stated income and inconsistent with the account history. You haven't provided evidence toward the origin of this recent deposit and in the absence of reasonable evidence I am not satisfied that these bank statements accurately reflect your personal circumstances.      In view of the above, I am not satisfied you have demonstrated that your circumstances are as you claim and therefore I am not satisfied that you're travelling to the UK for the period and purpose you stated. 41(i)and(ii).   Its true that I have deposited that sum of money right before I apply and it was a commission I received from work earlier this month.   So, could you please give me your advice on the above as I am planning to apply again soon. and how to avoid my application being refused again? Function $f(z)$ is holomorphic at least within the unit disk.   If for all arguments $|z|&lt;1$ we have $|f(z)| \le 1$, and there exists a zero of order $n$ at $z=z_0$, then show that $|f(0)| \le |z_0|^n$.  How should I tackle this problem? Can it be generalized if for $|z|&lt;R$ we have $|f(z)| \le M$ ?    So far I only understand that there exists a holomorphic $g(z)$ with $g(z_0) \ne 0$ such that $f(z) = (z-z_0)^n g(z)$,then $|f(z)| = |z-z_0|^n |g(z)| \le 1$ and moreover $|f(0)| = |z_0|^n |g(0)|$, but that doesn't seem useful since apparently I know too little about $g(z)$. In particular why should $|g(0)| \le 1$? Why is the gap between the translation and the last line of the gloss so wide in my interlinear gloss? I notice if I take away some letters, the translation line goes to where it should be, but this big block of white space is pretty untenable.

Does it just vanish into space leaving nothing behind or does it expel some material?    Also, talking more about black holes, as far as I understand the term "temperature", it is defined by the amount of kinetic energy of the particles of a body and from what I have read, there are no particles inside a black hole, I know that you can find the temperature of a black hole by analyzing its Hawking radiation but I cant really understand how the term "temperature" can be applied to a black hole. Does it mean that whatever is that it is inside a black hole has kinetic energy? Have physicist already experienced the death of any regular black hole (by regular I mean space-sized black holes not micro ones created in labs)? Also, where is the Hawking radiation form? Because if it is released by the black hole I bet it must have formed outside the event horizon, but how exactly?
