I need to disable docker services when Ubuntu 18.04 starts.  I tried with:  update-rc.d -f &lt;service&gt; remove   but this doesn't work.
I was trying to experiment with docker, Ubuntu 14.04, 64-bit. I managed to run an image, and I gave it the path on one of my removable drives, /media/Drive1.  Now, whenever I reboot, I see there is a /media/Drive1 with only a docker directory inside it, and the actual drive which should be Drive1 ends up mounted on /media/Drive11, and this happens every reboot - even when I unmount these drives, and do a sudo rm -rfv /media/Drive1 before rebooting!  So something probably creates /media/Drive1 before it is fully mounted, and I guess that something is docker, because when I boot, I have:  $ ps axf | grep docker  2085 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/bin/docker -d   So, how can I disable the docker autostart, so it doesn't interfere with the mounting of external USB drives at boot?
My issue is that I have a blender file in which cameras and lamps do not move when I attempt to rotate them using the mouse. If I select the objects (in object mode), press R, and move the mouse in the viewport, the lamps and cameras don't respond; they remain in the same orientation as when I started, no matter how vigorously I try to move the mouse. The values in the information bar show that the mouse is communicating. If, however, I manually enter a new value for the amount of rotation in the properties shelf of the viewport, the camera moves to the new orientation.  On a new default Blender scene, the cameras and lamps do respond to commands to rotate and scale using the mouse. I've compared all of the settings I can think of, and don't see anything obvious that corrects the problem.   is available. I have installed VirtualBox OSE on Ubuntu 11.04 and Windows XP pro as the virtual machine. Now I want to have a shared folder which can be accessed on both, my host Ubuntu machine, and my WinXP guest virtual machine.  How can I do that?

Is there any way you could revive Guest Sessions in a future LTS distro?  Guest sessions are good security - they give me just enough power to do what I need to do on a daily basis without risking my system. In short, Guest sessions save me from myself.  I had upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04, gotten a problem I couldn't fix and was all to happy to wipe and rebuild my hard drive and return to 16.04.  I can't be the only one who feels this way. Is there any app for Stack Exchange? Is there any app available in the Android Market for Stack Exchange sites? As you know, we can enable the spell checker on single line text boxes in the following way:    We have to enable it every time for checking words.  How can we enable it forever, so it doesn't need to be enabled each time? Python — How can I find the square matrix of a lower triangular numpy matrix?

I'm just migrating from Ubuntu Linux to Mac, and everything is new and I'm re-learning a lot of stuff.  On Linux I had the excellent apt-get to manage software packages. I googled for an alternative on Mac and found about MacPorts, Fink and Homebrew.  I will use this computer primarily to develop Ruby on Rails applications.  So, what are the differences between them? Which are the upsides and downsides? Which one is best maintained and has more packages? 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 $\lim\limits_{n \to\infty}a_{n+1} = \lim\limits_{n\to\infty}a_n$? What is the difference between “say” and “tell”? I really get confused when to use say and when to use tell. Which is appropriate in the following:   What did he tell? / What did he say? What are you saying? / What are you telling? Book series about preparation for a war at the Singularity I am looking for a book series (almost certainly a trilogy) that starts with some humans in a space station being abducted by a small funny-looking alien and taken to a prison planet. They find out that the way space travel works is by creating copies of the passengers, and the originals remained on the space station. This is actually good for the aliens since they believe every sentient being will resurrect at the Singularity and will be forced to fight a battle, so the more the merrier.  The one other detail I remember is that the world economy has a rampant inflation, so people take any cash they have at the end of the day and buy 20th-century memorabilia that doesn't devalue as much. Understanding the definition of the order of an entire function in Ahlfors's Complex Analysis Let $f: \mathbb C \to \mathbb C$ be an entire function. The order of $f$ is defined by $$\lambda=\limsup_{r \to \infty} \frac{\log \log M(r)}{\log r}, $$ where $$M(r)=\max_{|z|=r} |f(z)| .$$  Ahlfors in his Complex Analysis claims that     "According to this definition $\lambda$ is the smallest number such that       $$M(r)\leq e^{r^{\lambda+\varepsilon}} $$ for any given $\varepsilon &gt; 0$ as soon as $r$ is sufficiently large."   Why is this true?  My attempt:  We know that $$\lambda=\lim_{\rho \to \infty} \sup_{r \geq \rho} \frac{\log \log M(r)}{\log r}. $$  From the definition of the limit we have that for any $\varepsilon&gt;0$, there exists some $\rho_0&gt;0$, such that $$\left\lvert \sup_{r \geq \rho} \frac{\log \log M(r)}{\log r}-\lambda \right\rvert \leq \varepsilon ,$$ for every $\rho \geq \rho_0$. In other words $$\frac{\log \log M(r)}{\log r} \leq \lambda+\varepsilon $$ for every $r \geq \rho_0$. From here it is easy to see that $$M(r)\leq e^{r^{\lambda+\varepsilon}}, $$ for all $r \geq \rho_0$. I cannot see why $\lambda$ is the smallest number with this property.  Thanks in advance. Why would I vote for an increase in the number of authorized shares? hard disks spin up by processes / applications that simply get a list of disks? How to prevent? I have a 24/7 always-on Debian Jessie based headless home server that has a large 1TB SSD for the OS and all of my frequently accessed files. This same system has 4 larger hard disk drives in a SnapRAID array. These are mainly for archiving infrequently accessed Blu-rays and want those drives to remain spun down in standby unless I actually read or write to them. They are all formatted as ext4 and mounted with noatime and nodiratime enabled.  So even though no process or program should be regularly accessing those drives in any direct way, the hard drives constantly get spun up from standby. It seems to be related to graphical programs that provide a gui file browser, even something like Chromium. If I don't even browse into those drives, I'm thinking that these processes by simply getting a list of available drives spins up the hard disks. Much like blkid does. The problem is, it's hard to determine the root cause of this since none of these processes are actually reading or writing the filesystem on those drives, so no files are actually changing or being touched. Is there some sort of cache that I can populate or a buffer to prevent these programs from spinning up the hard drive simply by getting a list of available disks? This is honestly driving me insane, since I can't find a reliably way to keep these disks spun-down even though there is no direct access of the filesystem.  UPDATE: Thanks to Stephen's answer, I was able to trace the disk activity to gvfs and udisks. It's a real shame that these processes insist on waking up disks in standby when they aren't actually being accessed to do any real I/O with the filesystem. So far I just uninstalled them, knowing that it will remove some functionality from PCManFM and the like. Background reflected in glossy glass, but I didn't set it I've made a roughness 0 glass pane, when I'm in lookdev mode it's reflecting a background that I didn't put there. I know I could just ignore it, but I'd rather be able to see what it'll mostly look like when I'm in the later stages. I also just want to know how on Earth I managed to set this background without realising it  Reflection completely ignores any objects I put in front of it. If I placed this glass inside my house, it would still just reflect trees (This is the point where I felt I couldn't ignore it - reflections are going to play a big part in my project and I don't want to be in render mode all the time)  The nodes are the default glass BSDF, except I set roughness to 0  The glass is set to 20mm thick, if that makes a difference  The background moves with my perspective and moves when I relocate the glass  I have a few HDRI's on my PC, but none look remotely like this   Also, I'm using cycles as I find Evee buggy as hell Around 3 months ago, I submitted a paper to a Math journal for peer-review through an online submission system. The same day I received in my e-mail an acknowledgement saying that the paper had been received.  The problem is that the status of the paper on the online submission system is still "Manuscript submitted".  I think this means that the paper has not even been assigned to an editor yet (once this happens, the editor will probably start looking for reviewers), but as far as I know submissions are assigned to editors within a few weeks (I once submitted a paper to another journal and when an editor had been assigned, the status on the online system changed to "Editor handles" or something like that).  I know that publishing is a long and complicated process and I'm not trying to rush anybody, but sometimes manuscripts are lost in the system. In fact, this has once happened to me, so I just want to make sure that the paper was not lost in the system.  Should I send an e-mail asking for the status of the paper?  PS: I think that, at the time of submitting the paper, I didn't choose any specific editor to submit the paper to. Why doesn't the T-800 run? I just re-watched the first two films in the Terminator series. The T1000 (Robert Patrick) does a lot of running, and is quite fast.  I didn't see many scenes where the T800 (Arnie) ran. Is it because he's really heavy? Is he mainly designed as a heavy "stand your ground" machine?  The only scene I could see him running is in T2 in the mental hostpital where the T1000 morphs through the metal gate and his gun gets caught. Then the T800 does a little jog to get into the elevator following John and Sarah. (anybody know of any other running/jogging scenes?) (EDIT Arnie also breaks into a run while pursuing Reece and Sarah down the alley after the NOIR nightclub attack.)  If he can at least jog though, why wouldn't he do this throughout the entire film? You would think that from a "chance of survival" point of view, if he could get a John even the slightest bit faster then he'd do so.  Of course, maybe I am overthinking this... Arnie walking around slowly is a lot more badass than Arnie jogging around.  Edit: Just watched T3 again, the T800 also ran towards the end when the big hangar door was closing and he ran over to slow it down. Interested in other examples of the T800 running too. I use Ubuntu 18 and have little experience with Linux commands. I have two files:  file 1:  a,txt1,v1 b,txt2,v2 c,txt3,v1 d,txt4,v2   file2:  a,txt5,v2 b,txt6,v1 c,txt7,v1 d,txt8,v2   I want to print the 1st and 3rd column values where the the 1st column value is identical and the 3rd column value has changed from v1 to v2. So my expected output should be:  a   The second query is for the 3rd column values that has changed from v2 to v1. So my expected outcome:  b How do you match only valid roman numerals with a regular expression? Thinking about , i decided I can't even create a regular expression that will match roman numerals (let alone a context-free grammar that will generate them)  The problem is matching only valid roman numerals.  Eg, 990 is NOT "XM", it's "CMXC"  My problem in making the regex for this is that in order to allow or not allow certain characters, I need to look back. Let's take thousands and hundreds, for example.  I can allow M{0,2}C?M (to allow for 900, 1000, 1900, 2000, 2900 and 3000). However, If the match is on CM, I can't allow following characters to be C or D (because I'm already at 900).  How can I express this in a regex? If it's simply not expressible in a regex, is it expressible in a context-free grammar?
