I have a desktop PC with Windows 10 Pro and connect to The Internet via a cable to my router. I have set my connection to &quot;metered&quot; and told Windows Update to NOT download over metered connections. That did nothing as some time ago some update(s) were forced on me postfactum. Meaning Windows had silently and sneakily downloaded them and just told me I need to restart to install them. Again with no option not to do so, I could postpone it, at best but when Windows' patience runs out it would force my computer to restart. So I changed some Group Policies. Policy                                                                                                          Setting         Winning GPO -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allow updates to be downloaded automatically over metered connections                                           Disabled        Local Group Policy Always automatically restart at the scheduled time                                                              Disabled        Local Group Policy Configure Automatic Updates                                                                                     Disabled        Local Group Policy Do not adjust default option to 'Install Updates and Shut Down' in Shut Down Windows dialog box                 Enabled         Local Group Policy Enabling Windows Update Power Management to automatically wake up the system to install scheduled updates       Disabled        Local Group Policy No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations                              Enabled         Local Group Policy Turn on recommended updates via Automatic Updates                                                               Disabled        Local Group Policy Turn on Software Notifications                                                                                  Disabled        Local Group Policy  Now even that doesn't help. Again I have a notification a (useless) update was downloaded and I must restart my computer to install it. Is there a way to completely stop Windows 10 Pro from checking for updates?
We've upgraded some machines to Windows 10 and realized there were some updates which updated as required. However, I realized there was no option available to stop the download similar to that on Windows 7 and 8.1. The only way I could stop the download was to stop the Windows Update service.  My question is does anyone know of a way to stop auto updates or is stopping the service is the only solution?
Why does $\lim_{n \to\infty}a_{n+1} = \lim_{n\to\infty}a_n$? Assume that $\{a_n\}$ is a convergent sequence. How to use the definition of a limit of a sequence to prove that $\lim\limits_{n \to\infty}a_{n+1} = \lim\limits_{n\to\infty}a_n$? How do you disable an application specific hotkey, for example, "Command-P"? In many applications, Command-P is used to print.  My fingers are accustomed to emacs settings and reflexively press Command-P not for printing but for browsing history. It's annoying to see the print pop-up window every time when I press Command-P. I don't need a shortcut to print. How do you block a shortcut globally? I don't really know how to anticipate the changes in an option's price.  If I have an call set to expire the following Friday at $10 above the current share price, I know in the absence of other changes it loses value with each day that passes getting closer to its expiration. (Talking about American options.) But it gains value as the share price gets closer to the strike price.  So, if two days pass but the stock goes up $3, would the option have gained value or lost value? Is there any way to calculate this? $f,\overline f$ are both analytic in a domain $\Omega$ then $f$ is constant? is it true if $f,\overline f$ are both analytic in a domain $\Omega$ then $f$ is constant? I am not able to  find out what property of holomorphic map I need to apply. please help.Thank you.  $f(z)=u(x,y)+iv(x,y)$, $\bar{f}(z)=u(x,y)-iv(x,y)$ Where Android apps store data? How can I reduce screen brightness below the minimum without an app? I have an Optimus Elite, and it has a minimum brightness setting. In certain apps, I can reduce the brightness below the safe minimum, but when I leave the app, the brightness is increased to the system-wide minimum.  Using , I can permanently set the brightness below the safe amount, and it will stay even after going to other apps. Or using , I can accomplish almost the same thing even without needing root (it displays a translucent 'filter' over the whole screen, reducing brightness/contrast but not actually changing the backlighting power amount).  What I want to know is where the minimum screen brightness is stored. I have a rooted phone with CyanogenMod 9, so I have permissions to edit anything and could change a config or sqlite entry, but I don't know where this value is stored. What I would like to do is use the status bar brightness slider to be able to slide to the actual minimum of the screen, rather than the OS-controlled minimum. Having an app is useful, but having the functionality without the app seems to be within reach, if only I knew where the OS is getting it's safe minimum setting.  Where is this "safe minimum brightness" setting stored? If I can change it, I can remove my apps and use native controls. I'v found this proposition.  If $G$ is a finite  group , $ A \subset G $ a subset and $|A| &gt; \frac{|G|}{2} $ then $AA = G $.  Why this is true ? Dual boot UEFI Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 (both 64 bits).

Underscores in custom fields While trying to perform a WP_Query using meta_query(), I had some trouble because the custom fields created by a plugin had _ in the beginning of its name.   Although I noticed it was stored this way in the database, I had no idea why it was there and thought I had to reference it without the underscore (for the record, that is wrong).  Why do some custom fields start with underscores and others don't? What are the underscores used for? Are they mandatory in some circumstances? Why do both cron and systemd execute automatic upgrades? Paradox of General Comprehension in Set Theory, other than Russell's Paradox As is well known, the General Set Comprehension Principle (any class is a set) leads to the Russell Paradox (the class $x \notin x$ cannot be a set). As a result, set theories must restrict the Comprehension Principle to avoid self-reference. For example, in the case of ZFC, this is done by enumerating a small list of "safe" comprehension schema such as Separation.  Does General Comprehension lead to other types of paradox than Russell's? Or is this basically the only thing that can go wrong? Use of 'prototype' vs. 'this' in JavaScript? What's the difference between  var A = function () {     this.x = function () {         //do something     }; };   and  var A = function () { }; A.prototype.x = function () {     //do something }; Accessing site-specific Help Center from iOS app Can the Stack Exchange developers add an option to access the site-specific Help Center via the iOS app?  My use case is when I read a question that I think is off-topic, and want to double-check that the wording from the site's Help supports that position, having the Help Center available would be nice. Background  Recently  was implemented. With this feature the amount of questions with new activity is shown in parenthesis at the beginning of the page title, e.g.     (2) Meta Stack Overflow   means that MSO has two questions with new activity since the user last viewed it.   this feature is unrelated to inbox updates. Here is an example to illustrate this:    Even though there are two inbox messages in this screenshot this is not reflected by the page title. The page title is currently only sensitive to questions with new activity.  Suggestion  I suggest that the page title also reflects inbox updates. For the screenshot above this would mean that the page title shows that there are two inbox updates and two questions with new activity.  I am not sure what format is best for showing this. For chat * in the page title is used to show that there are messages directed at you which is similar in meaning to inbox updates. However, * if is placed after the number in parenthesis to denote inbox updates there might be confusion as there is no connection between the number in parenthesis and * like in chat. Thus, one might prefer another format such as one of the following (all are meant to reflect the status of the screenshot above):      * (2) Meta Stack Overflow     2* (2) Meta Stack Overflow     [2] (2) Meta Stack Overflow     2i 2q  Meta Stack Overflow     (2/2)  Meta Stack Overflow     (2|2)  Meta Stack Overflow    For the alternatives without an explicit hint of which number refers to what it might be best to place the number for questions with new activity first as it will in most cases be greater. This will to a greater degree avoid combinations such as "(0/2)" which may be confused zero of two.  An advantage of the suggested feature is that if the user has a browser tab with a Stack Exchange site then they will be instantly notified of inbox updates. They do not need to focus a tab with a Stack Exchange site to know if there are inbox updates, they merely have to check the relevant page titles among their tabs.  A disadvantage of the suggested feature is that it might be experienced as verbose. I suggest that it is implemented such that it is as unobtrusive as possible while still being informative. Think of a situation where a user has   one Meta Stack Overflow tab with two inbox updates relating to Meta Stack Overflow and two questions with new activity, and one Super User tab with one inbox updates relating to Super User and three questions with new activity.   Then the sum of the inbox notification in the page titles should be local to sites and not global. The page titles for the tabs above should be something like the following pair:      2i 2q  Meta Stack Overflow     1i 3q  Super User I have a psd that has rounded rectangle. I need to create a new rounded rectangle with the same radius. How do I determine the radius used on that said rounded rectangle?   I feel like this is such an awful question but thanks in advance for answering. "All of these things are not beneficial and (they) do not help her" Should I mention the pronoun again in this case?     "All of these things are not beneficial and (they?) do not   help her"   I know that there is already answer about the question "if it's needed to repeat on the pronoun in case that they are in the same position of grammar tense". But in this case it's different because the question deals with case of two different  tenses (in bold). Which tools and technologies are used to build the Stack Exchange Network?

Something I did in the first Animal Crossing was make a house on an alternate character solely to showcase bugs/fish I felt were too cool to only leave in the museum. However bugs can't be mailed or dropped, so I'm at a loss as to how to do this.  Is there a way I can give bugs/fish to a second character or will that character have to find them themselves?
