Not trying to do anything malicious or violate copyrights. Just out of pure curiosity. If dd creates a full clone of a disk, will it work if I use dd to make a full copy of windows 10 with a license key to another drive and boot it on another computer and have it still worked?
This is a  about Licensing.    Questions on licensing are off-topic on Server Fault.  If your question has been closed as a duplicate of this question, then this is because we want to help you understand why licence questions are off topic rather than just telling you "it just is". In all likelihood, this question will not address your question directly, it was not meant to.    I have a question regarding software licensing. Can the Server Fault community please help with the following:   How many licenses do I need? Is this licensing configuration valid? What CALs do I need to be properly licensed? Can I run this product in a virtual environment? Can I downgrade this product to an earlier version? Am I entitled to feature X with license Y?
How to auto-start unprivileged lxc containers? On Ubuntu 14.04, I have created an unprivileged container that I can manually start and stop.  But I would like this to start and stop along with the system.  I have added the following to the container's configuration:  lxc.start.auto = 1 lxc.start.delay = 5   However, the system scripts don't seem to pick unprivileged containers.  There is  related to this on linuxcontainers.org, but the solution seems to be restricted to root user.  Is there a clean way to do this for a non-root user (with root user's consent)? I want to make a bootable USB thumb drive to install Windows on my computer. I don't want to use my old DVD to create an image and then upgrade to SP1, so I decided to download an untouched .iso file that already has SP1 in it. My question is this, is there a difference between these two files files?     en_windows_7_home_premium_with_sp1_x64_dvd_620851.iso   vs     en_windows_7_home_premium_with_sp1_x64_dvd_u_676549.iso   What does dvd_u mean, is it somehow different from plain dvd? Also will these work with my retail Home Premium key or do these work only for thoe with TechNet/MSDN accounts? Output for Print Is there a way to output for Print. I want to save in a higher DPI than the default 72dpi say 300dpi that's a good quality for printed pieces. I tried downloading an add-on but don't know if I am installing it correctly it isn't showing up but the bar in python is green. I'm using the 2.69 version of Blender. If no such feature exists what size have any of you found best for print quality. Thank you Unable to mount Windows (NTFS) filesystem due to hibernation How can I add a newline in the text of a label in WPF such as the following?  &lt;Label&gt;Lorem    ipsum&lt;/Label&gt; Surface of genus $g$ does not retract to circle (Hatcher exercise) I'm trying exercise 9 on page 53 in  but I need some help with it. The exercise is:  In the surface $M_g$ of genus $g$, let $C$ be a circle that separates $M_g$ into two compact subsurfaces $M_h^\prime $ and $M_k^\prime$ obtained from the closed surfaces $M_h$ and $M_k$ by deleting an open disk from each. Show that $M_h^\prime$ does not retract onto its boundary circle $C$, and hence $M_g$ does not retract onto $C$. [Hint: abelianize $\pi_1$.] But show that $M_g$ does retract onto the nonseparating circle $C^\prime$ in the figure.    My first question is: assume there wasn't the hint, how would I think of abelianising? What does it mean exactly?  I thought I could do this by contradiction: if it retracts the induced map $i_\ast : \pi_1(C) \rightarrow \pi_1(M_h^\prime) $ is injective. I know $\pi_1(C) \cong \mathbb{Z}$, then I computed $\pi_1(M_h^\prime) \cong \mathbb{Z}$ and then I think I'm stuck. Right? Do you agree with $\pi_1(M_h^\prime) \cong \mathbb{Z}$ and being stuck after that?  What do I need to know to make progress? Many thanks for your help! Cohen's d for 2x2 interaction I have a significant 2x2 interaction in a between-subjects design.  I would normally report omega-squared as my effect-size measure, but I've been asked to provide Cohen's d instead?  Can Cohen's d be computed for an interaction?  If so, how? How to list all installed packages I'd like to output a list of all installed packages into a text file so that I can review it and bulk-install on another system.  How would I do this? Is there a catch-all place on the Stack Exchange network where one can post any question that does not obviously belong to the Stack Exchange sites? Is there a catch-all place somewhere on the Stack Exchange sites where one can post a (any) question that does not obviously belong to any of the Stack Exchange sites?  Sometimes I have questions but I don't want to ask them on other sites (no need for names). I prefer to post it on the Stack Exchange network for various reasons.  If there isn't, are there plans for one? I imagine that if such a site exists, questions on that site can also be moved to other more specific sites when they exists, and it's not to be used to post questions which obviously belong to a specific Stack Exchange site. The sum $\sum_{k=1}^nk(k!)$ can be easily calculated by noting $k(k!)=(k+1)!-k!$. Is there a way to calculate the sum nicely using a combinatorial argument. Is it possible to notice it is $(n+1)!-1$ combinatorially? db_update Query Issue I am using ubercart guest checkout module. I am able to submit  the order as guest etc works fine.   After Reviewing the order and submitting it throws me this error   Recoverable fatal error: Argument 2 passed to db_query() must be an array, string given, called in /var/www/html/dev.demo.net/sites/all/modules/ubercart_guest_checkout/uc_guest_checkout.module on line 263 and defined in db_query() (line 2342 of /var/www/html/dev.demo.net/includes/database/database.inc).   This is the query which is causing that issue    db_query('UPDATE {users} SET name = "%s", mail = "%s" WHERE uid = %d', $name, $mail, $account-&gt;uid);   I tried to change this query like this  db_update('users') -&gt;fields(array(     'name' =&gt; $name,     'mail' =&gt; $mail )) -&gt;condition('uid',$account-&gt;uid,'=')        -&gt;execute();   still no luck, it throws me same above specified error.    How can i resolve the query of above one in order to avoid the error. Any suggestions w.r.t query will be nice.Thanks in advance. Quotient of a local regular ring How can I prove this:     Let $A$ be a local regular ring with maximal ideal $\mathfrak m$ and $x \in \mathfrak m-\mathfrak m^2$. Then $A/(x)$ is a regular ring. Prove also that if $x\in\mathfrak m^2$, $x\ne 0$, the result does not hold anymore.   I don't know how to begin! Thanks to everyone who helps!  But if $d=\infty$? Example of a group where $o(a)$ and $o(b)$ are finite but $o(ab)$ is infinite Let G be a group and $a,b \in G$. It is given that $o(a)$ and $o(b)$ are finite. Can you give an example of a group where $o(ab)$ is infinite? Why is everything floating in space so cold? Of course there is pretty hot stuff too. For example Suns.  But isn't the vacuum of space the perfect containment for heat? And shouldn't the rare collision with particles even heat up an object that floats around in space?  Why aren't they hot from time to time? Is it because they loose their heat by radiant heat?  And if so does radiant heat emission always occur until the object is the same temperature as the surrounding or does it depend on other factors? What is $\gcd(0,a)$, where $a$ is a positive integer? I have tried $\gcd(0,8)$ in a lot of online  gcd (or hcf) calculators, but some say $\gcd(0,8)=0$, some other gives $\gcd(0,8)=8$ and some others give $\gcd(0,8)=1$. So really which one of these is correct and why there are different conventions? $f$ strictly increasing does not imply $f'>0$ We know that a function $f: [a,b] \to \mathbb{R}$ continuous on $[a,b]$ and differentiable on $(a,b)$, and if $f'&gt;0 \mbox{ on} (a,b)$ , f is strictly increasing on $[a,b]$. Is there any counterexample that shows the converse fails?   I have been trying to come up with simple examples but they all involve functions that are discontinuous or has derivative $f'=0$ which does not agree with the hypothesis hmmm Comparing $\pi^e$ and $e^\pi$ without calculating them Why is area of a surface of revolution integral $2\pi y~ds$? not '$dx$'? What does $\bigcup_{i=0}^{\infty}[i, i+2]$ mean? I think I get it but I wanted to be sure before attempting the question:  Question  Describe the following set, and prove your answers correct. (Here brackets denote intervals on $\mathbb{R}$.)  $\bigcup_{i=0}^{\infty}[i, i+2]$  Does it mean: {$0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...,\infty$} $\cup$ {$2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,...,\infty$}?  If so, what is the difference between:  $\bigcup_{i=0}^{\infty}[i, i+2]$ and $\bigcup_{i=0}^{\infty}(i, i+2)$ A loss and gain problem This is a very simple but confusing puzzle.  A customer buys goods worth $200$ rupees from a shop. The shopkeeper selling these goods makes zero profit from this purchase.  The lady gives him a $1000$ rupee note.  The shopkeeper has no change, so he goes next door to another shopkeeper to get change for the $1000$ rupee note. He keeps $200$ for himself and returns $800$ to the customer.  Later, the second shopkeeper from next door comes back with the $1000$ rupee note with a stamp on it saying "counterfeit" and takes his money back.  How much loss does the first shopkeeper face?
