In C4D I can control which objects to affect with a light, in the image below only the main object is affected by the light source, the background and other objects are not affected. But I haven't found a way to do this in blender!  Is it possible to specify which objects to affect with a light source?
I want to create an effect on a character where their skin and clothing are effected by two different light sources. The clothing should only reflect a bright bounce light, but have the skin should not be affected by this light source.    In the example image I have two objects a cube, a sphere and three emission  lights . I want the two white lights to hit both objects, and I need the purple light to hit and reflect off of the sphere, but ignore the cube entirely (no reflections).  Someone suggested to composite the layers together, it works... but this is very impractical and cumbersome because it forces the background to be transparent and it will be a pain to try and layer together a more complex scene, especially if its animated which is what I want this effect for.  I know you can have objects ignore shadows and all kinds of other things so im hoping someone knows how to get an object to ignore light with a few settings.
python: restarting a loop Unable to change payment information to NONE in iOS Appstore $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n$ are $n$ i.i.d. uniform random variables. Let $Y = \min(X_1, X_2,\ldots, X_n)$. Then, what's the expectation of $Y$(i.e., $E(Y)$)?  I have conducted some simulations by Matlab, and the results show that $E(Y)$ may equal to $\frac{1}{n+1}$. Can anyone give a rigorous proof or some hints? Thanks! Is every metric space a subspace of some connected metric space?

Pressure variation in a sound wave Want to fill line with repeating string Similar to the \dotfill command, but with your own text, rather than dots.  If the string was: kitty!  The entire line would look like the following: kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!  Is there any way to do this? What is the value of $\sum\limits_{i=1}^\infty\frac{1}{p_{p_i}}$ where $p_{i}$ is the $i$th prime? Take into account all of the reputations from all stackexchange sites Straight lines - product of slope of perpendicular lines. Let $l$ be a line with slope $\frac{1}{0}$, and $m$ a line with slope $0$.  Now, line $l$ is perpendicular to line $l$, therefore the product of the slope of line $l$ and the slope of line $m$ equals $-1$. This implies that $\frac{1}{0} \times 0 = -1$! No secondary button (right click) on touchpad I'm experiencing a serious problem with the new Ubuntu 18.04:  System Dell XPS 13 with a freshly installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.  Problem description The touchpad provides only primary button (single click and double click), but no secondary button. In particular, when using the "test Your Settings" option in Settings -> Devices -> Mouse &amp; Touchpad, any click on the touchpad is signaled as primary button, no matter where I click (left or right side of the touchpad). This remains the case even after I change the Primary Button from Left to Right (in Settings -> Devices -> Mouse &amp; Touchpad -> General).  In comparison, an external mouse connected to my laptop (via usb) works fine: it provides both primary and secondary buttons with sides corresponding to the choice of Primary Button (in Settings -> Devices -> Mouse &amp; Touchpad -> General).  This may be related to   Any ideas?  Update: Meanwhile, I found out that in addition to the solution proposed by EntropyWins, one can also control this touchpad behavior via the Tweaks tool (a.k.a. gnome-tweaks) under Keyboard &amp; Mouse -> Touchpad -> Mouse Click Emulation. In any case, as EntropyWins explains in his answer, this is not a bug. Logo Pack - What should I include? Do there Exist Proper Classes that aren't "Too Big" Some proper classes are "too big" to be a set in the sense that they have a subclass that can be put in bijection with $\alpha$ for every cardinal $\alpha$. It is implied in  post that every proper class is "too big" to be a set in this sense, however I have been unable to prove it. It's true if every two proper classes are in bijection, but it's consistent with ZFC for there to be a pair of non-bijective classes.  So, is the following true in ZFC:     For all proper classes, $C$, and $\alpha\in\mathbf{Card}$, $\exists S\subset C$ such that $|S|=\alpha$?   If not, is there something reasonable similar that preserves the intuition about classes that are "too big to be sets"?

If such a chain is irreducible and aperiodic and consists of $M+1$   states $0,1,\dots,M$ show that the limiting probabilities are given by   $$\pi_j=\frac{1}{1+M},j=0,1,\dots,M$$   I have no idea how to prove it but   If a chain is irreducible then all states communicate i.e $$P_{ij}&gt;0\space \text{and}\space P_{ji}&gt;0\space\forall i,j$$ If $d$ denotes the period of any state, if a chain is irreducible aperiodic, then $d(i)=1\forall i$   If $P_{(M+1)\times (M+1)}$ matrix and $\pi$ is the stationary distribution  $$\pi_j=\sum_iP_{ij}\pi_i\space j=0,1,\dots,M+1$$  but how I can get this expression? Is it possible to do a SELECT statement with a predetermined order, ie. selecting IDs 7,2,5,9 and 8 and returning them in that order, based on nothing more than the ID field?  Both these statements return them in the same order:   SELECT id FROM table WHERE id in (7,2,5,9,8)    SELECT id FROM table WHERE id in (8,2,5,9,7) When I double-click to select text in GNOME Terminal, the selection stops at spaces but continues over hyphens:      Some of my filenames contain uncommon characters such as the  and are not selectable by double-clicking:    Is there a way to make double-click selection continue over these characters as well?
