I want to ask how can I install Windows 7 Home Premium in Dual Boot with pre-installed Ubuntu. I`ve never opened my laptop, so the Ubuntu Set-up is not made.
I have Ubuntu on my laptop. Now I want install Windows 7 in a dual-boot. How can I do this? I can't lose my Ubuntu files, and I'm afraid that I might break . Go  for UEFI only!
Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. That is the reason we do not sink into the earth, because when our weight exerts a force on the earth it also exerts an equal and opposite force on us.  But when we stand on quicksand or on fluids we can sink in. How is this possible? Does it not exert an equal and opposite force on us? Or are Newton's laws different in the case of fluids and substances of low densities? It seems like to deleted too much files by rm -r and now I have the error of "the system is running a low-graphic mode" in Ubuntu and I have to work in Windows because of that.  However I can load it in recovery mode. I need to copy the files from Downloads folder to a flash drive. Downloads folder has them as I can see by ls command.   When I plug in a flash drive, there will be some messages saying that everything is ok (as I understood) and it's plugged. But when I go to /media/my_name and do ls then I don't see anything. I don't see anything in /run/media/my_name either(I'm not sure if should though).  I can't connect to the Internet for some reason. Ubuntu was installed by wubi.exe file.  How do I save the content of my Downloads folder to a flash drive? What hardware does Ubuntu Touch support? Audits bug in the filtered review queue Just recently the . I've got  this morning which seems to be out of scope for my filtered list. I have filtered my list to only review VBA and Excel-VBA tags while the audit is tagged with perl http pipes which have nothing in common with VBA. I see a problem with the way the system currently works  Since I have a filtered list of tags, once I see a differently tagged question I already know it's an audit. Come on, that's too easy!  Can this please be fixed? update I have ran into  which I decided to edit - the question was tagged VBA and I thought it had nothing to do with VBA so I selected Edit which was the correct action. Now, once the first audit was clearly one to close - nothing to do with VBA and really easy to know that it actually was an audit - the second one was a very good audit. I am just thinking now if this is a proper bug or just a matter of malfunction in the system. I think the first one may have been made an audit for the wrong reason. Let's turn this into a discussion as I can't clearly work the system out. Current Configuration: I have two SQL Servers, which are connected by the failover mechanism, meaning one is primary and one is secondary. I restarted both services on both servers sequentially. On the secondary server, all the databases are in the &quot;Synchronizing&quot; state. AG replication mode is synchronous. It has been 12hr it's still showing &quot;Synchronizing&quot; state. What I did so far to resolve Drop the database from the secondary server and remove the database from AG group on the primary server and add it back. Any insight on this, I am using SQL Server 2017. I need to match a space character in a PHP regular expression. Anyone got any ideas?  I mean like "gavin schulz", the space in between the two words. I am using a regular expression to make sure that I only allow letters, number and a space. But I'm not sure how to find the space. This is what I have right now:  $newtag = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9s|]/", "", $tag); I'd like to use JavaScript to calculate the width of a string. Is this possible without having to use a monospace typeface?  If it's not built-in, my only idea is to create a table of widths for each character, but this is pretty unreasonable especially supporting  and different type sizes (and all browsers for that matter). Why do we use ./filename to execute a file in linux?  Why not just enter it like other commands gcc, ls etc... Suppress "In:" biblatex Compact topological space with closed graph implies continuity Let $X,Y$ be topological spaces and $f:X \rightarrow Y$  If $Y$ is compact and $G(f)$ (graph of $f$) is closed, show that $f$ is continuous.   I consider an open set in $X$, and as $G(f)$ is closed, $(X \times Y)-G(f)$ is open. And I guess I need to do something here. Then I can get some open sets. Also, I notice that compact is something relate to "finite". I guess I can use the compactness to do finite intersection or union and get the result finally.  But what should I do in the middle or I am not even on a right track. How to detect if a function is called as constructor? Given a function:  function x(arg) { return 30; }   You can call it two ways:  result = x(4); result = new x(4);   The first returns 30, the second returns an object.  How can you detect which way the function was called inside the function itself?  Whatever your solution is, it must work with the following invocation as well:  var Z = new x();  Z.lolol = x;  Z.lolol();   All the solutions currently think the Z.lolol() is calling it as a constructor. Which browsers are officially supported by Stack Exchange?  Also, what else is needed in order to use every feature of the site? Can I acquire a Windows 8.1 licence by free upgrade from 7 to 10, then downgrading So, I have Windows 7 pro, and I'm looking to upgrade so that I can use some of the apps that are only available in Windows 8+. I considered just taking advantage of the free Windows 10 upgrade, and actually installed it at one point, but then I found out that there's forced automatic updates and decided that wasn't for me(I'm a bit paranoid after Android 4.4.4 killed Flash Player without telling me. :P). So, I did some research.   From what I read, the Windows 10 upgrade "consumes" your Windows 7 license into a Windows 10 license, and so even if you revert back after upgrading then you can still change your mind later and jump back to Windows 10. () I also read that Windows 10 has "downgrade" rights to Windows 8 and Windows 7, which to my understanding meant that if you have a Windows 10 key, you can also use it to install Windows 8 or 7 if you want. ()  My plan for the process is re-upgrade to 10, pull the license key, downgrade to 8 and use the license key, then upgrade to 8.1 via Windows Store, and end up on 8.1. So my questions are: Is this possible?  Will it wipe all my data in the process?(not a dealbreaker if it does, but I'd need to know that so I can back it up) Do I need to re-upgrade to 10 in order to downgrade to 8?  Any input is definitely appreciated. Thanks! How do I disable 'Activities' hot corner in GNOME shell? GNOME shell has the so-called feature "hot corner", that opens the dashboard  if the mouse touches the top-left corner of a monitor screen.  I want this disabled I used to have a GNOME shell extension, yet the repository is not found anymore:  git clone git@github.com/Ahrak/gnome-shell-extension-disable-hot-corners.git fatal: repository 'git@github.com/Ahrak/gnome-shell-extension-disable-hot-corners.git' does not exist Do Chinese citizens require a visa to go to Hong Kong for less than 7 days? I have come across both the phrases - 'on the internet' and 'over the internet.'   I'm pretty sure that both are correct but then which to use when?  Please note, I'm well aware of all over the Internet which I'm not concerned about. Make mouse left-handed and touchpad right-handed I see that I can configure mouse and touchpad all in one panel (Ubuntu 13.10, defaults, Gnome). Which is to some extend. Namely, I want to have the touchpad differently configured then the mouse and ...  When I have an (USB) mouse attached I use it normally left-handed. Therefore I switch the buttons to left-handed. But when I use the touchpad I feel little bit lost with that kind of configuration. Therefore I wanna have it right-handed.  Is there a way to achieve the following: when I plugin a mouse (respectively when it is detected) automatically switch to left-handed and when I unplug it, switch automatically to right-handed? meaning of -h in ls command My website title shows up slightly different from what's in my title tag, only in Google search Is there canon info on shelf life of various potions in Harry Potter? Do we know how long potions (in general, or at least specific ones) are potent (no pun intended) in Harry Potter canon?  E.g. do they last a couple of hours? Minutes? Years?   I seem to vaguely remember some comments of Snape's about Wolfesbane potion therfore I think at least some information exists.
