I cannot find a 64 bit x86 version of an ubuntu iso image to download.  I would like version 18.04.2 (or the latest LTS).  Can someone please direct me to the correct link/location.  Thanks.
My processor is an Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 (2.40GHz). As far as I know that's a 64-bit processor - I'm a bit confused as the architecture is called AMD 64, is this a generic name given to 64-bit architectures? I've heard of x64 but can't see a release labelled with this.
Change bounding box of math glyphs in LuaTeX I'm trying to use the Garamond-Math font in LuaTeX (despite the documentation saying I should use it with XeTeX only :-). It's working more or less OK with LuaTeX, except for some unfortunate glyph combinations, mostly at the end of inline math, such as “where $T$ is the period”.  I used \fbox to draw the bounding box of the glyph and noticed that the bounding boxes are different in LuaTeX:        and in XeTeX:        In XeTeX the glyph fits almost entirely in the bounding box, but in LuaTeX it overshoots far too much.  I'm not a font guy, so I have no idea why this happens. I thought the bounding box was a property of the font, so in my imagination the result should be the same. Thus the first question is: what actually happens that the bounding boxes are different?  The second question, in the title, is: can I change the bounding box of specific glyphs (using LuaTeX) so that the output looks more like XeTeX's?  I tried manually adding some spacing after the glyphs, but this looks hideous and will go down the drain if I happen to change the font or engine, so I'd really like not to do that. I also tried using the italic correction \/ but it seems to have no effect in math.  Here's the code to produce the pictures above:  \documentclass{standalone} \usepackage{unicode-math} \setmathfont{Garamond-Math.otf} \begin{document} \fboxrule=1sp \fboxsep=0pt In Lua\TeX{} this \fbox{$T$} looks horrible, but the \fbox{$X$} looks OK. \Huge\fbox{$T$}\quad. \end{document}   I'm using TL 2018:  This is LuaTeX, Version 1.07.0 (TeX Live 2018)  (format=lualatex 2019.3.29)  13 APR 2019 12:43  restricted system commands enabled. **test.tex (./test.tex LaTeX2e &lt;2018-12-01&gt; Lua module: luaotfload-main 2019-02-14 2.96 luaotfload entry point The temperature of an electron Does an electron have a temperature, if so, what is it?  Imagine an electron (Ke = 1 eV) in a tube at room temperature (300 K)    what is its temperature?   Imagine now same electron in space (3 K) with same Ke, is it any different from the other?  What is the influence of external temperature on electrons?  Do those electrons have electric energy, or do we have such energy only when the electron hits something and discharges its Ke? This is an attempt to write a canonical QA for this issue, as per the Meta post:   I expect it to be periodically edited with the goal of becoming a comprehensive information resource.  I have a MacBook Pro that has a key(Shift, Return,   Command, P, etc.) that doesn’t respond when pressed or is stuck in the down position.    It's possible that my favorite beverage was spilled (or some other liquid damage).  It's also possible that I have no idea what happened.  It was working yesterday and suddenly today it's no longer working.  Is there any way to bypass or remap the key?  Can I  have the system ignore it completely?  (This question can also apply to external USB keyboards or the Bluetooth keyboards) How to output a counter with leading zeros? I can output the value of a counter in a LaTeX document via:  \setcounter{mycounter}{1} \arabic{mycounter}   Which inserts a 1. But how do I format the output by, for example, adding a leading zero if mycounter is less than 10 in a way similar to what  lets you do by specifying %02d as your format string? Changing the size of the mouse pointer in Ubuntu MATE 18.04 does not work Using the quadratic formula, we have either 0, 1, or 2 solutions. I wonder if we could use it this formula for congruence? Or is there a formula to solve quadratic equation for congruence?  Edit Assume that $ax^2 + bx + c \equiv 0 \pmod{p}$, where $p$ is prime with $(a, p) = 1$, then is there a formula for this equation?    Thanks, Floating point comparison One frequent aspect of pdflatex output that could be improved is to what extent one can select text output from the generated pdf-file and copy-and-paste it. This is essentially an issue of having the right output encoding. There are at least two important aspects to this:   In the ideal case, Unicode would be the output encoding. Ligature glyphs (such as ﬁ) are ideally de-ligated in the output (here: "fi").   It seems that output encodings are specified through the fontenc package. What is the range of possible output encodings, and most importantly: Is there a way to specify a Unicode output encoding and one that deals with ligatures in the intended way?  (Note: It is important to distinguish output from input encodings. How to use different input encodings in LaTeX has been documented widely. My understanding is that this is best handled by the inputenx package, as it supersedes the inputenc package.)    Quick guide to the solutions: The information in the answers and answer threads is a bit distributed, so here the short summary: one approach is to use \input glyphtounicode together with \pdfgentounicode=1; the other approach is to use cmap/mmap.  Addendum: Sometimes one will need to load the package accsupp and enclose one's macro definition in \BeginAccSupp{method=hex,unicode,ActualText=&lt;codepoint&gt;}[...]\EndAccSupp{} to generate a specific code point. See the caveat about non-BMP code points  and the fix (starting from accsupp version v0.4, 2012/11/18) , which provides the new unichar package option. Not every open set in $\mathbb{R}^n$, for $n\geq2$, is a disjoint union of countable open balls. I know that every open set in $\mathbb{R}$ can be decomposed as the union of countably many disjoint open intervals and I'm trying to show that this property no longer holds in higher dimensions. For this I'm trying to show that there is no countable, pairwise disjoint open balls whose union is the open square $(0, 1)^2 ⊂ \mathbb{R}^2$. I know that it is because of the corners, but I don't know how to write this in mathematical terms. Thanks for any help. Splitting text files based on a regular expression I have a text file which I want to split into 64 unequal parts, according to the 64 hexagrams of the Yi Jing. Since the passage for each hexagram begins with some digit(s), a period, and two newlines, the regex should be pretty easy to write.  But how do I actually split the text file into 64 new files according to this regex? It seems like more of a task for perl. But maybe there's a more obvious way that I'm just totally missing. Proof of matrix norm property: submultiplicativity I've been searching for the definition of the submultiplicative (I think it has multiple names from what I've seen) property in proof form. Some books define it as part of the properties that define matrix norms, and some include it as an additional property. I still haven't been able to work it out for myself or find it anywhere.  Let $A$ and $B$ be $n\times m$ and $m\times l$ matrices respectively, prove that:  $$\begin{align} \|AB\| \le \|A\|\|B\|  \end{align}$$ I have this picture:  (I have the original in Pixen and could export it to several different formats. I went with PNG though since it's lossless.)  When I open my picture in Preview (OS X) and zoom in, it looks fine. The characters have extremely sharp boarders between them and the background. However, when I put it into my LaTeX document, compile it to a PDF (using TeXShop) and then zoom in, it suddenly have gotten blurry (see screenshot: ).  Minimal working example:  \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{graphicx} \begin{document} \includegraphics[scale=1]{fig1.png} \end{document}   In the end, I would like to be able to scale the picture freely without there being any blurring at all. C# difference between == and Equals() Anthology for children; contains story about friendly Martian on postapocalyptic Earth I'm looking for the title of an anthology of children's science fiction stories from the 1950s. The best of the bunch involved a Martian who visited earth, and realized we'd blown ourselves up in a nuclear war and had fallen into savagery. The Martian is a vegetarian who subsists on biscuits made by a machine he brought with him, and communicates by using one of his tentacles to feed messages direction to/from the brain of the person he's talking to.  Inadvertently left behind by his expedition, he initially befriended some children, and eventually managed to rebuild civilization. Presently he dies, but when another expedition comes a generation later, they find the civilization he rebuilt.  there were other stories, but that was the best one.   If I can't find the name of the book it was in, I'd be happy to settle for the name of the author and the title of the story. Particularly, what is the best snippets package out there?  Features:   easy to define new snippets (plain text, custom input with defaults) simple navigation between predefined positions in the snippet multiple insertion of the same custom input accepts currently selected text as a custom input cross-platform (Windows, Linux) dynamically evaluated expressions (embedded code) written in a concise programming language (Perl, Python, Ruby are preferred) nicely coexists with others packages in Emacs   Example of code template, a simple for loop in C:  for (int i = 0; i &lt; %N%; ++i) {   _ }   It is a lot of typing for such common code. I want to invoke a code template or snippet which inserts that boilerplate code for me. Additionally it stops (on TAB or other keystroke) at %N% (my input replaces it) and final position of the cursor is _.

Why does this happen with Longclaw? Spoilers ahead for "Beyond the Wall" (Game of Thrones, S07E06)  Toward the end of the episode, "Beyond the Wall" (Game of Thrones, S07E06), we see a close-up shot of Longclaw        Then, once Jon Snow emerges from the water, Longclaw appears to be opening its eyes        You can get a much better picture of it .  Is this an Easter Egg from the Visual Effects department, or is there an in-universe explanation behind this?  Or was this not planned at all by the production team, and this is merely a coincidental, accidental lighting/water effect, that just happens to be timed with the dramatic tension of Jon Snow possibly being dead, and the relief of him being alive? How is the amplitude of light related to number of photons? If you increase the number of photons leaving a light source you increase the brightness/intensity, so it could be said that intensity is directly proportional to number of photons. However intensity is directly proportional to amplitude squared, so this leads me to wonder that if you increase the amplitude of a light wave, are you just creating more photons rather than affecting each individual photon in some way? "invalid EFI file path" while booting Windows How can I gear my follower post 2.0? I'm a little confused as to how I'm supposed to gear up my follower since the installation of smart loot in Loot 2.0. My follower still has most pre loot 2.0 items because I have yet to find comparables that are rolling with the right affixes.   To be clear, I play a DH and so I used the Templar as my tank. I very rarely find items that roll with Strength because smart loot sees my DH and rolls Dex for me instead. With the use of the Enchantress I thought it would get better because I could replace Dex with Strength...but that's not true. It seems as though the Enchantress will only roll Dex for me too.   With the auction house down for good, no outlet for trading, and the installation of smart loot, it seems that gearing a follower has become almost impossible unless I want to jump on another character that uses strength and get items that way. I want to find items that I can use while I'm playing. How do I gear my follower post Loot 2.0? Do I have any options other than character jumping?
