I've been trying to add hair to my stylized character sculpt using the curve technique that many youtube tutorials teach, but I find myself quite stumped on something; If I want to have one strand of hair split into 2 smaller ends of hair, how would I do that? I've kinda done this before by just duplicating the strand and moving the ends of the path slightly to achieve a similar effect, but this isn't ideal since it both doubles the polycount and doesn't really connect to the original strand organically (They're noclipping through each other)  This is a scuffed diagram of what I'd like to do. Just be able to extrude at a node and it have it properly create a new strand instead of the mess it actually creates in blender  Here's another diagram, from the artwork () I'm basing the hair from. You can see how one 'thick' strand splits into 2 smaller curved strands I imagine it might be possible by duplicating the strands, making them into a mesh, then sculpting them so that the seam and overlap are unnoticeable, however, this is pretty time consuming and forces me to retopolgize the hair; I'd be grateful to hear any techniques for doing this as easily as possible! (There is a similar question involving cables, but I do believe it is a different enough issue to warrant a separate question. Sorry if it isn't)
I want to extrude a curve in two directions.    Or join both curves into one, is it possible? I've tried copying it and then join segments, but I don't see Remove Doubles option while working with curves.
The Monty Hall problem Install Windows 10 alongside Ubuntu 14.04 Aiming at specific body parts My players have been asking to improvise specific combat actions, mostly the archer wanting to aim at specific body parts. I haven't been able to find anything in the DMG or the PHB on the subject so I was wondering how I should deal with this.    How (if at all) should an attack roll be modified when targeting a specific body part? If there is not RAW on this I am open to playtested house rules per . For about 2 days I'm trying to configure Ubuntu so that I can send an email, but when I type in:  echo "Subject: sendmail test" | sendmail -v my@email.com   I'll get:  postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory Mail Delivery Status Report will be mailed to &lt;andreigbr&gt;.

Includegraphics maximum width With \includegraphics I can give the width of the resulting image (which would be scaled).   How can I give a maximum width of the image? That is, if the original is smaller than X, I'd like to keep the smaller image, if the image is larger than X, then the image width should be X.  Using pdflatex/graphicx. I want to create posters for my poster presentation on a conference. What tools or LaTeX classes are available for preparing posters ? If I have $f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ such that $f$ is onto and $f\circ f\circ f = f$, how can I prove that $f$ is bijective? I know that I only have to prove that it is 1-to-1 because I'm given the fact that it's onto, but how can I use the fact that $f\circ f\circ f=f$ to prove that it is 1-to-1?  Thanks!

How to reduce memory usage on a Unix webserver I'm currently using a Joyent Accelerator to host my webapps, and it's working fine, however I need to reduce costs so I'm downgrading my current plan and that imposes some new memory limits (256M rss, 512M swap). I wasn't too far over them yesterday, but after restarting Apache several times today, I'm now 411M rss, 721M swap (prstat -Z -s cpu).  Searching in Server Fault only gives me lots of ways and specific tools to monitor the server, but no advice on how to reduce/optimize it's memory usage. I've also seen , but I don't think it's good for this particular (or may I say generic?) situation.  The server is running Solaris on a shared CPU, and I'm using a Apache + MySQL + PHP stack.  I'm interested in knowing the steps one can take to troubleshot this and solve the issues. However, I'm also running out of time to lower my memory foot print and downgrade the plan before the current ends, so anything that can make magic and save the day is welcome as well :) Reinstalling Ubuntu with a dual boot I was experiencing problems with Ubuntu Desktop like missing and broken system packages, missing Unity package and other problems. So I decided that the best solution (without touching Windows files) is just to reinstall Ubuntu.  I looked everywhere and found the way but got confused as some say that I supposed to choose "Erase Ubuntu and reinstall", others say that I supposed to choose "Something else" and just select it manually while installation. I thought the first option would be better and just safer as I don’t want any of Windows files to be touched but it says that it has a bug that erases all other partitions...   Current Ubuntu version: 17.04 desktop 32bit will be replaced with 16.04.0 desktop 32bit (as 32bit 17.04 version is no longer available)   What’s the safer option to choose? And if the second one is, how to make sure it’s Ubuntu partition? terminator: permission denied for sudo I’m looking for an adjective/ noun that describes a person who loves life, traveling, great food, always doing things which gets adrenaline kicking and is a always ready for attempting things for pleasure only Tweak showlabels/showkeys - wrap the label Can showlabels wrap the label in the margin? A very similar question is , but the solution of @DavidCarlisle does not solve the more general case.

What is the origin of elements heavier than iron? In all the discussions about how the heavy elements in the universe are forged in the guts of stars and especially during a star's death, I usually hear that once the star begins fusing lighter atoms to produce iron (Fe) that's the end of the star's life and the whole system collapses onto itself; and based on how massive the star was initially, it has different outcome - like a white dwarf, a neutron star or a black hole. I have rarely heard a detailed explanation of how the elements heavier than iron are produced. I would appreciate a convincing explanation of this process. How to backup all my data from a server?
