in ubuntu 13.10 how can i edit the quicklist? Because i need to add some other place and remove some that are default (like picture, video, etc) thanks!
My bookmarks are not shown anymore after upgrading to 13.04 Raring ringtails and I can't add any new bookmarks. The function is not shown and the shortcut Ctrl+D isn't working either. Is this functionality just gone for some reason (as the split screen with F3) or is there something wrong with my upgrade?  Thanks for any hints.
What would be the differences between a persistent USB Live Session and a installed Ubuntu in a USB drive? I'm a teacher and will ask my students to either bring their laptops with Ubuntu installed with an specific list of packages preinstalled or bring a USB Drive or External Hard Drive with Ubuntu and the packages preinstalled.  For those who are going to bring the USB are two posibilities:   Install with the Ubuntu's "Startup disk creator" program, and telling it to reserve some space for persistence. Boot with a LiveCD and Install Ubuntu in the USB drive.   Then, in either case, boot with that media and install the packages.  So, for my purpose or any other purpose:   What is the best choice and why? Do we have another option? full explanation please. One of the assumptions I make as GM is that the players should always be in the spotlight.  Sometimes the players find themselves in a situation where they watch NPCs speak to each other.  I don't like using this kind of situation, because it forces the players to watch me talk to myself and that turns them from active participants into an audience.  Usually I handle it by avoiding the situation.  I try not to write scenes that the players watch.  Instead the players speak to the NPCs one at a time.  When I do come across an exchange between NPCs I opt to summarize the conversation instead of acting it out.    I don't like this limitation though.  It gets a little contrived when all conversations in the game feature 5 PCs and 1 NPC.  Any suggestions? Either how to avoid doing it, or how to effectively role play a conversation between two (or more) NPCs that the characters may or may not be interacting with?   How do you keep clear which character is speaking? How do you make sure that the conversation feels like a real one and not like one person playing both roles? Get the row and column name of the minimum element of a matrix We put all of our unit tests in their own projects.  We find that we have to make certain classes public instead of internal just for the unit tests.  Is there anyway to avoid having to do this.  What are the memory implication by making classes public instead of sealed? Where is the right place to register/enqueue scripts & styles I am using WordPress 3.1.4 by now. I am confused with where (which hook) do I use:   to register and/or enqueue  scripts and styles  on front- and back-ends?   Questions:   Which are right hooks to use? All front end register/enqueue scripts/styles in init? Why is there no admin_print_styles-{xxx}? Failure to download extra data files - ttf-mscorefonts-installer This is an old problem that deserves a bugfix, but it's getting beyond a joke now and I can't seem to work around it.

The specific point at which it fails to download changed - it seems to be a sourceforge reliability problem, but this has now been going on weeks and results in annoying popups as above all the time.  How do we get this fixed and/or how can I work around it for now. Load your bag or Load your bike? Probably, another debatable question from my side.  When carrying items while riding, like water bottle, repair kits, pumps, or other stuffs that you might need, What is the best option.... to carry them?   On your cycle at saddle bag, handlebar bags, or pannier bags or etc.  or, On backpacks, like hydrant pack, or simple travel pack.   While loading on cycle, it will increase the weight of the bike, thus affect a lot of things, like speed, traction, more reactive on corners. Like while using pannier bags.. it will increase rear weight, making it difficult on uphill.   Also while loading on backpack, it will tire you down fast if its a big load, decreases your flexibility, agility &amp; etc.  So what is right way to do it?  Update:  The type of ride I generally, go to are commuting, mountain biking, &amp; trailing. And the items I generally carry are   Commuting: Water bottle(x2), Laptop (17"), books, copies, repair kits, hand pump, few other accessories. Mountain Biking &amp; Trailing: Water bottle(x2), repair kits, extra tubes, hand pumps, candybars &amp; few other accessories How to partition harddisk for Ubuntu 18.04 I want to partition my hard disk, but I don't have any other software running(like dual booted).  And I do not know how to do it. Can you send the instructions? Cardinality of Irrational Numbers I know and I have proved more than once that the set of irrational numbers ($\mathbb{I}$) is uncountable, but now I'm given to solve this problem:   Show that $|\mathbb{I}|=|\mathbb{R}|$,  How can I do that?  Do I need to assume the Continuum Hypothesis in order to that statement to be true?  Thanks Firefox suspicious subprocess (turned out to be legitimate FF behavior) I've discovered this yesterday, as it was generating system load on otherwise idle Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop machine.  Today, I've confirmed such behavior also on another Ubuntu instance (17.10 in Virtualbox VM)  The sub-process in command line looks like below ( I've put this as picture below intentionally to prevent askubuntu.com from changing/escaping the content )   For me it looks like exploit/malware. Or at least there is something to hide.  this happens even for url Order and degree of a differential equation Here is a question in my book  Find the order and degree of the differential equation $$y=1+\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{1}{2!}{\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)}^2+\frac{1}{3!}{\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)}^3+\cdots$$  At first sight we can conclude that the order is $1$ and the degree is undefined as  as the power of $\frac{dy}{dx}$ continues to increase and has no limit.However  my book gives the following solution  Rewrite the DE as $$y=\exp\left({\frac{dy}{dx}}\right)$$ $$\implies \frac{dy}{dx}=\ln y$$ whose order and degree is 1 .  Now ,I completely agree with this solution however I find it rather counterintuitive to my first line of thought .If the book is correct how can it be justified to prove my intuition was wrong? How to use classes from .jar files? I read the Java tutorials on Sun for JAR files, but I still can't find a solution for my problem. I need to use a class from a jar file called jtwitter.jar, I downloaded the file, and tried executing it (I found out yesterday that .jar files can be executed by double clicking on them) and Vista gave me an error saying "Failed to load Main-Class Manifest attribute from [path]/jtwitter.jar".  The guy who coded the .jar file wants me to import it, but where do I store the .jar file to import it in my code? I tried putting both the .jar file and my .java file in the same directory, didn't work.  The file I'm trying to work for is here:   I'm using JCreator LE. Removing the first line of CSV file Torque relationship to speed in a DC motor I have a conceptual doubt about torque-speed relation in a DC motors. It's probably a gap in my thinking but I'm posting this question anyway.  Torque and speed in a DC motor are said to be inversely proportional. But doesn't an increase in torque result in increase in Angular Acceleration and consequently, angular speed?  I know that back EMF/counter-EMF is responsible for the inverse relation but it seems counter intuitive to me. What happens to the angular acceleration, angular speed when the torque is increased and where does all that work go? In logic, a semantics is said to be compact iff if every finite subset of a set of sentences has a model, then so to does the entire set.   Most logic texts either don't explain the terminology, or allude to the topological property of compactness. I see an analogy as, given a topological space X and a subset of it S, S is compact iff for every open cover of S, there is a finite subcover of S. But, it doesn't seem strong enough to justify the terminology.   Is there more to the choice of the terminology in logic than this analogy? Surprisingly many network interfaces on macOS: are these legitimate? ifconfig reveals a surprisingly long list of network interfaces on my MacBook, which is running macOS High Sierra (10.13.6): lo0, gif0, stf0, XHC20, en0, p2p0, awdl0, en1, en2, bridge0, utun0.  There is an F5 VPN client installed, but I've rebooted the MacBook since the last VPN connection.  Are all of these network interfaces legitimate or is this something I should worry about? What are Unity's keyboard and mouse shortcuts? Was Dumbledore aware that Professor Snape took points from Harry/Gryffindor unfairly? In many situations, we see Professor Snape behave in an unfair manner.   Snape unfairly and arbitrarily takes house points away from Harry/Gryffindors.  Was Dumbledore aware of this and, if so, did he just not care, or did he support this to somehow help Snape's double agent role? pass 1 environment variable using sudo Is this a correct way for passing an environment variable in sudo ?  sudo -u www-data -b env FOOBAR="foobar" /home/user/folder/daemon Properties of invertible matrices Show that if $A$, $B$, and $A + B$ are invertible matrices with the same size, then   $A(A^{-1}+B^{-1})B(A+B)^{-1}=I$      What does the result in the first part tell you about the matrix $(A^{-1}+B^{-1})$?
