In older versions of Ubuntu you used to be able to scale down the size of the Launcher, but now I have installed Ubuntu 14.04, and that option in the GUI was changed. It now scales down/up every element of the interface. Is there any way I could maybe edit some file or something, in order to only reduce the size of the Launcher?
I want to resize the Unity launcher. Is that possible?
Is it correct to say I electrocuted my friend if he was only injured by electricity? Is the product of two Gaussian random variables also a Gaussian? Say I have $X \sim \mathcal N(a, b)$ and $Y\sim \mathcal N(c, d)$.  Is $XY$ also normally distributed?  Is the answer any different if we know that $X$ and $Y$ are independent? Schengen Visa Refusal: Justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not provided What is the difference between "is subject to" and "is subjected to"? I found the following sentence on the U.S. Customs and Border Protection website:     All persons, baggage, and other merchandise arriving in or leaving the   United States are subject to inspection and search by CBP officers.   I would like to know whether changing "subject" to "subjected" will change the meaning of the sentence. Which wire is negative on this PC fan? I just got this PC fan and it has a 3 pin connector, I know the wire with the white stripe is positive but how can I find out which of the other two wires are negative?  If you can't see the photo, here is a link to it: Someone needs to set the record straight on what exactly antiderivatives vary by: constants functions or piecewise constant functions. An integrable and periodic function $f(x)$ satisfies $\int_{0}^{T}f(x)dx=\int_{a}^{a+T}f(x)dx$. I want to prove:     For an integrable function $f(x)$ and periodic with period $T$, for every $a \in \mathbb{R}$, $$\int_{0}^{T}f(x)\;dx=\int_{a}^{a+T}f(x)\;dx.$$   I tried to change the values and define $y=a+x$ so that $dy=dx$ and the limits of the integrals are as we want, but I'm not sure how to use the fact that $f(x)$ is periodic.  Thanks a lot! Why isn't Google Chrome available in the Software Centre? Recommendations for good Newtonian mechanics and kinematics books What are some good books for learning the concepts of Kinematics, Newton laws, 2D Motion of Object etc.? Can't we compute $\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{1+ \cdots +n}{n^2}=\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{n^2}+\cdots +\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{n}{n^2}=0$? I am aware there are many questions similar to this on MSE but I am having trouble following any of the solutions given.   I have the function given by   $f(x) = \dfrac{xy}{x^2+y^2}\;$ for $(x,y)\neq (0,0)$ and $f(0,0)=0$  I have calculated the partial derivatives and found:   $$\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = \frac{y(-x^2+y^2)}{(x^2+y^2)^2}, \quad \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} = \frac{x(-y^2+x^2)}{(y^2+x^2)^2}$$  Now I need to show the partial derivatives exist for $(x,y) = (0,0)$.  I am also asked to show it is not continuous at $(x,y)=(0,0)$, based on other answers I've seen it seems like this follows from solving the first part but I fail to see how that follows through as well.   I could just copy the solutions with my function in place as I have seen a lot of answers using the definition of the derivative, but realistically I do want to understand what the thinking behind this is.   Any help would be appreciated. Statistical Entropy and Information theory I set up Windows 10 and have been using it for months on a spare laptop.  When installing, I did not use a Microsoft account to enable all of the app connectivity because I don't need that functionality.  I do not want these features active on this device, and I used a simple user name during the install.  Everything was going fine until I read about the Linux/bash features that are available in the anniversary update.  I decided to try them out and entered my Microsoft Insider credentials to enable the features in the developer options of the Control Panel.  I didn't realize the primary account on this device would now become linked to that Microsoft account.  Is there a simple way to disassociate the Microsoft account from the local account, or are they now linked forever in an unholy union?  I can set up a new local account, but I'd rather not lose all the settings and folder preferences prior to my gaffe. 554 5.7.1 : Relay access denied centos postfix I have problem in send mail from postfix in centos  I have following  for sending mail but I am getting error.

I have read enough threads on QQplots here to understand that a QQplot can be more informative than other normality tests. However, I am inexperienced with interpreting QQplots. I googled a lot; I found a lot of graphs of non-normal QQplots, but no clear rules on how to interpret them, other than what it seems to be comparison with know distributions plus "gut feeling".   I would like to know if you have (or you know of) any rule of thumb to help you decide for non-normality.  This question came up when I saw these two graphs:    I understand that the decision of non-normality depends on the data and what I want to do with them; however, my question is: generally, when do the observed departures from the straight line constitute enough evidence to make unreasonable the approximation of normality?  For what it's worth, the Shapiro-Wilk test failed to reject the hypothesis of non-normality in both cases. How to maintain a file's 'last modified' date? Limit of $\prod\limits_{k=2}^n\frac{k^3-1}{k^3+1}$ Calculate $$\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{2^3-1}{2^3+1}\times \frac{3^3-1}{3^3+1}\times \cdots \times\frac{n^3-1}{n^3+1}$$ No idea how to even start. How do you programmatically set an attribute? Calculating size of particular area below buffer in QGIS? I have a point shapefile of villages where data was collected in Northern Kenya. I created a buffer around those villages.   The second vector layer contains polygons defining areas according to vegetation type. So for example, a forest might be surrounded by a narrow ring of woodland in an area which is mainly grassland. I'm trying to obtain a percentage of each vegetation type within the buffer per village.   I'm using QGIS 1.7 Getting equation from differential equations I have:  $\dfrac {dx} {dt}$=$-x+y$  $\dfrac {dy}{dt}$=$-x-y$  and I am trying to find $x(t)$ and $y(t)$ given that $x(0)=0$ and $y(0)=1$  I know to do this I need to decouple the equations so that I only have to deal with one variable but the decoupling is what I am having trouble with  Do I set them equal to each other and then just move like terms to separate sides getting two different equations and then integrate?
