Script to convert filenames to lowercase depending on extension
I'm totally new to Ubuntu/Linux, using Ubuntu Server at the moment. Just trying to  figure out something basic.   How can you tell where you are installing a program. For example I just installed Sphinx search engine by placing the tarball that I downloaded from their site to my:  /home/sphinx   directory. I created the sphinx directory to place that tarball in. Then I ran these commands:  tar xvzf sphinx-0.9.8.1.tar.gz cd sphinx-0.9.8.1/ ./configure --with-mysql-includes=/usr/include/mysql --with-mysql-libs=/usr/lib/mysql   and then these:  make sudo make install   Now I have a lot of files sitting in the directory where I ran these commands. Is this my Spynx installation or did it install somewhere else?  In windows if you run an installer (.exe file) anywhere the program will still install in your C:\Program Files directory. Does something similar apply to linux where all programs are installed in a central place, or can you install programs anywhere on the system.  Questions   I would prefer to keep all my installed programs in one place so what is the right place for this in terms of best practice. In other words what is the Linux equivalent of C:\Program Files? And how does one always install at this location, is it just a matter of placing the tarball and running the install commands from this location? What about if I use sudo apt-get to install a package. How can I point to this location to tell apt-get to always install there? Did anyone in the Star Wars universe wear effective armour? The Storm Troopers are the main case here, they get killed easily by blasters and even the Ewok arrows go straight through their 'armour'.   The AT-ST and AT-AT use armour to repel blasters of different strengths so they don't pass through all materials. I understand though that the armour used on these is likely much heavier.   From the prequel trilogy we also have the , which have a shield when not moving. Does anyone other than these droids use this technology?   You may use any of the Scrapped EU, Current EU and the normal U to answer. I have seen quoted several places on the internet a rule that one can apply bonuses and penalties in the most beneficial order.  An example I come across frequently (as a druid) is the combination of Natural Bond and . Natural Bond increases your effective druid level for determining the stats of animal companions but cannot increase it beyond your character level. Choosing an alternative animal companion lowers your effective druid level for determining the same stats. The "most beneficial order" rule is used to justify applying the level penalty before the natural bond bonus in order to get around the character level cap on natural bond.  Does this rule actually exist? If so, where does this rule originate? I would like to be able to cite a reliable source for my GM. I have a Python  object. What is the best way to subtract one day? Symbolic links error while creating Ubuntu UEFI bootable USB I have tried to create UEFI bootable USB drive within Ubuntu 14.10 (Startup disk creator didn't help nor I am interested in using it.). I have formated USB with FAT32 and GPT. So the only thing left to do would be just to copy all files from ISO to USB. That method worked when it comes to Linux Mint 17.1 and Clonezilla live CD, but when I tried to create bootable USB for Ubuntu 14.04 or Kubuntu 15.04 beta 1 there was an error copying files. Actually, on several occasions (4 or 5) pop-up window appeared.   After ignoring this errors, both Ubuntu and Kubuntu USB boot-up just fine, with no apparent problems in Live mode.   Can someone please elaborate what this symbolic links presents? Will this cause some problem when OS is installed? Persistent Dummy Output What is the order of the Crisis on Earth X episodes in the Arrowverse? Possibly two questions in here: Are these sentence constructions logical, and if they are, why are they different?     I swam across the Ocmulgee River.   I swam across the Pacific Ocean.   I swam across the Red Sea.   I swam across Lake Winnipeg.   I can't think of a way of phrasing the lake example while using an article with a proper noun. I thought at first it was because Lake Winnipeg is different; it's generic portion (the "Lake") comes first and the name of that body comes second, but I swam across Falls Lake is the same.   Yet the sentence I swam across the lake sounds right to me. ...Why? What was Mr. Anderson (Neo) selling on discs to Choi?

The same can be observed with , ,  etc. $\DeclareMathOperator{\card}{card}$From Problem-Solvers Topology  Prove the following: CANTOR'S THEOREM If $A$ is a set, then $$\card A &lt; \card \mathcal{P}(A)$$ where $\card A$ stands for the cardinality of set $A$.  My Answer If $A = \emptyset$, then $\card A =0$ and $\card \mathcal{P}(A)=1$. If $A = \{a\}$, then $\card A=1$ and $\card \mathcal{P}(A)=2$. So suppose that $A$ has at least two elements. Define a function $f: A \rightarrow \mathcal{P}(A)$ such that $f(x) = \{x\}$ for all $x \in A$. Then $f$ is injective. But it cannot be surjective, because for any two distinct elements $a,b \in A$, there is no element in $A$ that is sent to the set $\{a,b\}$ in $\mathcal{P}(A)$. Therefore, there is no bijection, and $\card A &lt; \card\mathcal{P}(A)$. Do you think my answer is correct? Thanks in advance The spells that we know about in the Harry Potter world all seem to be either in Latin, derived from Latin, or resembling Latin.  This makes sense for the European World, but there were likely witches and wizards in Africa, Asia, and the Americas.  These cultures would have developed independently, and the magical people in them would likely have still found ways to cast their spells.  Do cultures with languages that did not derive from Latin use the same words and phrases that are related to Latin for their spells?  Or did they have other phrases based on the languages in their cultures? Question involving discriminant of quadratic congruence in elementary number theory. I installed Redhat 6 x86_64. I am using the Network connection screen to set a static IP address like below (I want two PC's in my house to see each other: one Redhat PC and one Mac)   192.168.0.5   255.255.255.0   192.168.0.1     When I run ifconfig it displays only lo and virbr0 information. I don't know what these items are (I don't really know much about network settings).   When I try ifconfig -a it displays eth0, lo, sit0 and virbr0. The information for  eth0 is as follows:   Link encap : Ethernet HWaddr 90:2B:34:74:05:30 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:192 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:6 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes 53811 (52.5 KiB) TX bytes:468 (468.0 b) Interrupt:29 Base address:0xc000   Could someone help me to point out if anything wrong with my setting or how to resolve this problem? Which locations are traditionally Santa's home - i.e. where can you visit Santa Claus year-round? Obviously around this time of the year, Santa and his minions will be out and about, finding out who is naughty and nice, and delivering presents.  However, the rest of the year he's back at his home.  Where is that generally considered to be visitable?  Yes, in some traditions it's the 'North Pole', but I know at least one other country (Finland) has Rovaniemi as his home. Can I run CAT5/6 cables parallel to electrical cables?
