So basically, I was really desperate when I met this guy. I'm 18. He says he's in Canada right now, and will be back on the 23rd. When he isn't talking about money, he's been really upfront, honest, and genuine. But he offered to help me get a car, and I ended up giving over $2k worth, while he coughed up $1500, and he said he's going to help me pay off the final $2k when he brings the car to me. After, if I no longer want the car, he wants me to sell it at a higher price.   I'm AWARE this was stupid, but it was really convincing and I took a leap of faith. But now he's telling me he doesn't trust his personal assistant anymore or something, and wants to link his company account to mine. He wants me to apply for a credit card, because I haven't established credit yet, and I'm not sure if this is suspicious or what.   Like I said, he's told me he's going to come see me when he gets back to the states. I'm not sure if that will really happen, but he otherwise hasn't shown many signs of being a scammer. Like he is obviously from another country, but he lives in New York. Seems to trade a lot of bitcoin. But his english is good, he's intelligent. For the most part, in my opinion, he seems legit but... I still can't help but feel it's a bit suspicious.
I met a guy on a sugar daddy dating site and we talked, I told him my situation and he said he would help.   He asked for my bank account information and I told him you can use cash app or PayPal to go through. He said his account manager deals with his finances. So I set up an account with a bank that I don’t use so that my primary account isn’t used.  Eventually he was in the process of sending me money and we had agreed on a amount that wasn't crazy. But then he asked for my address and I asked why and he said just wondering. Then said he wanted to send me a surprise for being his baby. Which I didn’t give.  Then later on he sent the money and said he sent me a bonus and that I was supposed to use that to pay his mothers caregiver, which he didn’t mention until after.  I kept questioning him and he was saying that he works in construction and he’s trusting me to carry out the errand. Then he said don’t let him down and I asked him if he was threatening me and he kept saying I need this done but didn’t really answer my question.  Am I being scammed? I’m about to change my password but is this a scam?
Sudo not available in guest login Is expression for law of equipartion of energy valid for real gas? I know that according to law of equipartion of energy ,energy per molecule per degree of freedom is 1/2 Kb T I wanted to know if it is true for a real gas ? Is there a general method (which can be implemented by hand) to finding the $n$-th roots of $2 \times 2$ matrices? Is there a similar method for a general $m \times m$ matrix? (for $n &gt; 1$ and $n\in\mathbb{Z}$) How do I save a file with managed_file in a theme? I'm developing a theme that it requires to have a header image on the front page, so I have this.  casper.theme  function casper_form_system_theme_settings_alter(&amp;$form, &amp;$form_state) {  $form['theme_extra']['front_page_background_image'] = array(     '#type' =&gt; 'managed_file',     '#title' =&gt; 'Front Page Background Image',     '#description' =&gt; 'Add background image for the front page',     '#required' =&gt; FALSE,     '#weight' =&gt; -4,     '#upload_location' =&gt; file_default_scheme() . '://theme/backgrounds/',     '#default_value' =&gt; theme_get_setting('front_page_background_image' , 'casper'),     '#upload_validators' =&gt; array(         'file_validate_extensions' =&gt; array('gif png jpg jpeg'),     ),  ); }   However, after it, while the file been missing and after some reading, I find out that is because managed_file does not save your image permanent.   There are similar questions:    is specified to Drupal 7.  is using "file" type instead of managed_file. I already tried something similar to what the Mayo theme is doing, but I was not able to successfully figure it out.   How can I save my image permanently? What are the meaning and possible origin of "word!" and "word up"? let's imagine i am at school with an android phone. I have a computer at home and that computer has a virtual machine working on it. here is the scenario, client and virtual client has ssh-client and ssh-server both and they can communicate each other in the local network.  when i want to connect to my virtual client from school by android phone through internet there must be an ip address.  the problem is virtual machine and client has the same public ip. so how do i connect one of the two machines? It is discouraged to simply catch System.Exception. Instead, only the &quot;known&quot; exceptions should be caught. Now, this sometimes leads to unnecessary repetitive code, for example: try {     WebId = new Guid(queryString[&quot;web&quot;]); } catch (FormatException) {     WebId = Guid.Empty; } catch (OverflowException) {     WebId = Guid.Empty; }  I wonder: Is there a way to catch both exceptions and only call the WebId = Guid.Empty call once? The given example is rather simple, as it's only a . But imagine code where you modify an object multiple times, and if one of the manipulations fails expectedly, you want to &quot;reset&quot; the object. However, if there is an unexpected exception, I still want to throw that higher. Entering U.S. exactly on the day of visa "expiration date" What is the most straightforward way to pad empty dates in sql results (on either mysql or perl end)? I'm building a quick csv from a mysql table with a query like:  select DATE(date),count(date) from table group by DATE(date) order by date asc;   and just dumping them to a file in perl over a:  while(my($date,$sum) = $sth-&gt;fetchrow) {     print CSV "$date,$sum\n" }   There are date gaps in the data, though:  | 2008-08-05 |           4 |  | 2008-08-07 |          23 |    I would like to pad the data to fill in the missing days with zero-count entries to end up with:  | 2008-08-05 |           4 |  | 2008-08-06 |           0 |  | 2008-08-07 |          23 |    I slapped together a really awkward (and almost certainly buggy) workaround with an array of days-per-month and some math, but there has to be something more straightforward either on the mysql or perl side.   Any genius ideas/slaps in the face for why me am being so dumb?    I ended up going with a stored procedure which generated a temp table for the date range in question for a couple of reasons:   I know the date range I'll be looking for every time The server in question unfortunately was not one that I can install perl modules on atm, and the state of it was decrepit enough that it didn't have anything remotely Date::-y installed   The perl Date/DateTime-iterating answers were also very good, I wish I could select multiple answers! What are all possible ways to stop a zombie from despawning? Is there any way for which we are able to stop a zombie from de-spawning no matter how far we go? If so, what are all possible ways?  Bonus question: what are all the other techniques for which we can prevent a zombie from de-spawning within a specific block radius? Why the interior of $\mathbb{Q}$ in $\mathbb{R}$ is empty? How do I count the number of occurrences of a char in a String? Consider the following file:  \documentclass{beamer}  \setbeamercolor{title}{bg=red} \setbeamercolor{author}{bg=yellow} \setbeamercolor{date}{bg=} \setbeamercolor{institute}{fg=red,bg=green}  \title{TitelTitelTitel} \author{meiermueller} \institute{Institute} \date{lalala}  \begin{document}  \usebackgroundtemplate{\color{blue}\rule{20cm}{15cm}}    \begin{frame}    \titlepage  \end{frame} \end{document}   On one of my computers (using MiKTeX 2.9 and beamer 2015/01/05 3.36), the result is the following:    Note how, in particular, the date box has a transparent background  On my other computer, I installed a new MiKTeX version (2.9.6800), including beamer 2018/09/02 v3.52, and get this:    Here, the date field has a white background, and I cannot seem to get it to be transparent.   Apparently, the difference has some relation to the beamer version, or maybe some other change in the new MiKTeX version.  But what ist the reason, and how do I get transparent backgrounds? Define Pressure at A point. Why is it a Scalar? I just broke the screen of my (unrooted) Galaxy S.  How do I get back my SMS and contacts?   PS: I tried Kies but it won't detect my phone for some reason. (Kies works fine with another Galaxy I possess but not this one) Monty hall problem extended. I checked my  to see whether I can find something similar to the main-site flag-history for chat-flags, but didn't find anything. I recently had the (dis)pleasure of regularly having to deal with a user, that has been deleted multiple times. Whenever they show up (with the same nick-name) again I have to flag them again. I'd like to get an overview of how often I had to do that, and whether my flags were helpful for the moderators. As such I propose the implementation of a flag-history as it is already in place for the main-site for chat-flags, that request moderator intervention. To be completely clear I am not talking about the 10k user flags, which are acted on in a matter of sometimes seconds with instantly visible results, but about moderator attention flags from this menu: Top bar search doesn't pick up subdomains I wanted to switch to  in the handy dandy site switcher in the new top bar. Entering "cook" brings up nothing:     ... so I have to remember that the boutique title of the site is "Seasoned Advice":     ... in which case the site switcher also thinks that maybe I was thinking of heading over to  to see what's up. So the site switcher searches site names and descriptions, but not subdomains. This is unexpected behavior - I believe it should search all three. Find the limit of $\lim\limits_{(x,y)\to (0,0)} \frac{x^2y^2}{x^2y^2+(x-y)^2}$ I installed Ubuntu yesterday, so I'm trying to get used to it.  I'm really close to my router, but my wifi signal gets too low. Sometimes I'm in Facebook or Youtube and the signal is high, almost full, but it is usually in one or two bars, and sometimes none.  I can use Internet normally, I can watch videos and stuff, but the problem is when I try to update something or Ubuntu is downloading stuff, the downloads get stuck or get cancelled telling me that I should check my connection.  How can I fix this? I should be getting a really good signal, I'm really close to my router, my phone has full signal, and a notebook with Windows 7 has full signal here too.  Sorry my bad English and I hope you can help me.  $ lsusb Bus 009 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
