Many modern big budget films such as ,  and even some TV shows such as  are still shot on film.  Directors such as Christopher Nolan and Quentin Tarantino have stated that they oppose digital cinematography due to the inferior image quality. Tarantino even saying that he thinks digital cinema is the  of the film industry.  What are the benefits of shooting on film? Pre-2010 it seems film may have had a technical edge, but with the advancing technology I cannot see any way in which film is still superior:  Modern digital cameras are smaller, lighter, cheaper, more flexible and offer a much higher dynamic range, frame rate and a similar or better resolution than their film counterparts. In addition, most films are edited and projected digitally at 2K or 4K which would remove any additional resolution you may gain from film. Even if a "film look" is desired it can be created in post production from digital footage and can look indistinguishable from real film.  Why do many directors and cinematographers still prefer film? I cannot find anything other than vague mentions of "better resolution" or "it just looks better".
I happen, time and again, to read and hear people – among which people working in cinema – regretting the fact that film (in the sense of actual reels of plastic strip) is nowadays very rarely used when shooting movies. Is there some ground to such nostalgia?  Of course I am not looking for opinions for or against film vs. digital media, but sourced, objective reasons. Is there anything that could be done with film but not with digital supports? Are there measurable differences in effects on viewers?
Replace Builtin commands with Custom Commands for CMD.exe \@seccntformat only for section I had Ubuntu 12.04 Beta installed on my computer. When 12.04 was finally released, I made a bootable USB Flash Drive using Startup Disk Creator.  Then I decided to check if this drive works properly and to reinstall the system on my desktop. I must add, my desktop behaves a bit strange when it comes to bootable USB's, it recognizes them as HDD.  In BIOS I changed priority of boot so USB Flash Drive (recognized as HDD) was first. Successfully booted, I installed Ubuntu. Everything worked fine, but...  Now I cannot boot from my real HDD. Every time I want to boot, I put the USB Flash Drive into my computer, boot, safely remove it and everything works.  What do I need to do to repair boot? conjunction of disjunctions and disjunction of conjunctions $(p∨q) ∧ (p∨r) ∧ (q∨r) \iff (p∧q) ∨ (p∧r) ∨ (q∧r)$  Without using set theory, how can I prove this using logical equivalences? I've tried to approach this problem with De Morgan and I've also tried the property of distributivity but I keep reaching a dead end.   How should I approach this problem?  Thank  you. What is the meaning of "would", and how to use it? What is the meaning of would, and which tense is it used in the following sentences?  For example,   That would be Ram calling. I'll answer it. (the meaning of would and which tense is used) The guy on the phone had southern accent. That would be Tom. (the meaning of would and which tense is used) “We saw a police helicopter overhead yesterday morning.” “Really? They would have been looking for those bank robbers.” (the meaning of would and which tense is used) You would have to say/do that. (Why is would used here? What happens to the meaning if would is removed?) John said he didn't steal any money. Well, he would, wouldn't he ? (Why is would used here?)   Why is would used in sentences 1, 2, and 3 to mean "presumption" instead of using other modals, such as: must and should? Does the meaning change if used others?   Can we use will, must, should and could in the place of would, without changing the meaning of sentences?   What kind of meanings would it make if they (will, must, should, and could) are used in the place of would?     I'd be grateful if you could answer me. "Give a hand" vs "Help" Currently, I'm working in an international company with many non-native speakers (so am I) but with pretty good level of English, I suppose.  I have noticed that my colleagues usually use phrase "give a hand" when asking for  help or even talking about it and seems to be avoiding the strong word "help".  It looks a bit confusing to me especially after I made people laugh when I said  "I will help you" in one of our conversations, don't remember exact context though...  So could you please describe the difference between them? And is there something wrong or hidden meaning with help-based phrase? How can I force SQL Server Management Studio to update the IntelliSense cache? IntelliSense in SSMS isn't updating unless I shut it down and restart. I've tried disconnecting from the server and reconnecting while the SSMS session is active, but that isn't working.  Steps to recreate:    Create a table  Select something from that table SSMS displays squiggly red lines under it with the tip "invalid object name" Execute the query   How can I force IntelliSense to update without restarting SSMS? The whole multi-continent aspect of A Song of Ice and Fire seems to be getting out of hand. Do the other continents suffer those long winters?  Can the Others harm the other continents?  In The Lord of the Rings there were other realms than Middle-earth, but Middle-earth was still all of humanity and dwarf population and hobbits.  Sure there are stories like Romeo and Juliet where the only thing that matters is whether those 2 are going have a chance to love.  But in these fantasy / sci-fi stories there's usually danger of world domination by evil.  It's not usually just one continent is going to be a terrible (or impossible) place to live but other civilizations will flourish. Chat is an offshoot of the main site, and using it is  during their time here.  Chat is our place for:        Real-time collaboration   Meeting fellow members of the community   Less structured, casual (but still roughly on-topic) conversation      Our chat system exists to serve the main site; users of each site can gather and commune with each other.  When in chat, we expect all users to abide by our  policy, which means that we expect community members to treat each other with respect.

How do I animate time? Does anyone know of a .NET date/time parser similar to  (handles stuff like "tomorrow" or "3pm next thursday")?  Note: I do write Ruby (which is how I know about Chronic) but this project must use .NET. 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? Two similar limit problems I have two limit problems which are quite similar, so I've put them both into this post.   $((4^{10}+2^{n})^{\frac{1}{n}})$ $((3n^{2}+n)^{\frac{1}{n}})$   Attempt:  For 1, I'm not sure if this is permissible. I know that $\lim_{n \to \infty}(x^{n}+y^{n})^{\frac{1}{n}} = \max\{x,y\}$. Obviously $4^{10}$ is a constant so it's not quite in the same form, but I believe it is still okay to use this result, and so the limit is $2$.  For 2, I've got $((3n^{2}+n)^{\frac{1}{n}}) = (n(3n+1)^{\frac{1}{n}})$, but then I'm not too sure how to proceed.   I also thought of taking the log and proceeding that way, however in the notes I'm learning from they haven't covered l'hopital yet, so I'm trying to not use it.  Thanks. How to deal with "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space" error? I am writing a client-side Swing application (graphical font designer) on Java 5. Recently, I am running into java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error because I am not being conservative on memory usage. The user can open unlimited number of files, and the program keeps the opened objects in the memory. After a quick research I found  and others saying on Windows machine the JVM defaults max heap size as 64MB.  Given this situation, how should I deal with this constraint?  I could increase the max heap size using command line option to java, but that would require figuring out available RAM and writing some launching program or script. Besides, increasing to some finite max does not ultimately get rid of the issue.  I could rewrite some of my code to persist objects to file system frequently (using database is the same thing) to free up the memory. It could work, but it's probably a lot work too.  If you could point me to details of above ideas or some alternatives like automatic virtual memory, extending heap size dynamically, that will be great. Faction Membership Limits in Fallout 4 Are there any limitations to the faction memberships you can have in Fallout 4?  I'm brand-new to the Fallout universe, and just got to the point of being invited to the Brotherhood of Steel. However, I'm a bit concerned about their politics and how it may affect my standing with other factions I may encounter.  If I join the Brotherhood, will there be other factions that I can't join? Are there any other factions that have such limitations?  Note: I'm still not very far into the game, and not very familiar with the Fallout 4 universe in general, so please make liberal use of spoiler markdown in your answers. Essentially, the only things that need to be un-spoilered are Yes/No answers for the questions asked above. I need a non trivial  examples of group isomorphism that maps $G\to H$ such that   $G/H \cong G$. bread that does not get moldy How can a bread have an expiration date of one year into the future?? The bread in questions is Deutsche Küche rye bread (from Aldi).  Yes, it is a dense bread, but it is not dry like a cracker, so there seems to be enough moisture for mold to grow.  There are no preservatives.  Edit (pictures added): Did Anakin and Obi-Wan use the Force to protect themselves from the heat on Mustafar? While duelling that close to lava, I would suspect that they would get dangerously hot and dehydrated, and possibly burned. Did they use the Force to protect themselves in some way, for example lower their body temperatures and cool the air around them while duelling?
