What is a vCard  and how do I read it? It popped up in a message from a friend and I don't know what it is. Please explain.
so someone tells me i need to call a few people.  they send me a vCard called contacts.vcf.  i import it.  i open my phone app and start to dial, but wait...i don't know their names.  How do i look up a recent vCard on my phone?  How do i know who's contact i've been sent?  when i navigate to a .vcf file, i can't open it.  all i can do is import it.  polaris office won't import/open it.  is there an android txt editor i can use to peruse a vCard?  yours truly, Confused by vCards Note 3, kit kat
First of all, I know that light does indeed travel slower in a medium like air or water, but that's because the photons are bouncing off of the medium's particles and in different directions so the light beam as a whole is slowed down (or at least that's the classical explanation I've read somewhere).  But my question is about light traveling freely in the vacuum. What if an astronaut during a spacewalk switches on a flashlight towards the opposite direction he is moving. Will that light travel slower than normal?  If not, is there another way to make light move slower? For example, can you make a beam of light move so slow that you can visually perceive it being affected by gravity? I found an argument online that the two fields are not isomorphic but I can't make sense of the argument. You find it .  These are the things I'm confused about when it comes to the argument.     It says that the field $\mathbb Q[x]/(x^2+1)$ contains a root of the polynomial $x^2+1$. I suppose this is the congruence class $[x]$? But this is not the same as the zero element of the field $\mathbb Q[x]/(x^2+1)$, right?   It says that every isomorfism takes $0$ to $0$. I interpret this as the zero-element in $\mathbb Q[x]/(x^2+1)$ (which I interpret to be $[0]$) is taken to the zero-element in $\mathbb Q[x]/(x^2+2)$ denoted $[0]_2$. But in the argument it says that this means that if $\mathbb Q[x]/(x^2+1)$ has a root of the polynomial, then also $\mathbb Q[x]/(x^2+2)$ must have a root of this same polynomial. Why is that?     Greatful for any help! I have an unused copy of Mass Effect 2 Collector's Edition bought via Amazon.com in the US, including a special code for Inferno Armour (also unused).  Will it work fine if I install and start playing the game in the UK? Does geographical location matter?  Thanks! I'm transitioning a Drupal 6 site to Drupal 8.1 so following the official instructions, I set up a new install in its own directory. Since this is only one site, I followed the instructions to put my database credentials in sites/default/default.settings.php after the declaration of the $databases array.  Running drush --status returns the following.  Drush version          :  8.1-dev                                           Drush temp directory   :  /tmp                                              Drush configuration    :                                                    Drush alias files      :                                                    Drupal root            :  /media/psf/Home/apps/newp                         Drupal Settings File   :  MISSING   Since this Drupal is 8.1-dev that must mean I need to upgrade it. Since this is a global install using Composer, I run composer global update.     Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of   packages drush/drush dev-master requires codegyre/robo ~1.0.0-beta1   Checking the drush-ops page on github doesn't show any anomalies like this nor my Google search.   What am I overlooking? I want players to be able to click text to run an OP command even if that player is not an OP. For example something like:  Console: Do you want to enable Fly? [If you do, Please click here]  *Player1 clicks that text*  Console: /fly Player1   Is something like this possible? Expectation of Exit Time of Brownian Motion from Interval I am trying to solve the following:  Let $W_t$ be a brownian motion and $a,b &gt;0.$  Define $\tau$ to be the exit time of $W_t$ from $[-a,b]$, that is $$\tau = \inf\{t \ge 0\ :\ W_{t}(\omega) \notin [-a,b]\}.$$  Show that $\tau$ is integrable and compute $\mathbb{E}(\tau)$.  I have seen this stated without proof multiple places that $\mathbb{E}(\tau)=ab.$  What is the logical argument that backs up this statement?  How are we guaranteed $\tau$ is integrable? Let $f$ be entire and suppose that $\text{Im} f\ge0$. Show that $\text{Im} f$ is constant. How do you show that if $f$ is entire and if $\text{Im} f\ge0$, then $\text{Im} f$ is constant? Is this even true in the first place? What is the easiest way to export just the selected objects in Illustrator? The title says it all, I want to know what the simplest way to export the selected objects.  In Inkscape, there is a menu option called export selected which does just this.    The aforementioned option lets you export the selection as a composite image or as a batch of individual images.  Both would be nice, but in this scenario I want to export the selected objects as a single image.  I can already create a new document, and paste in the selected items.  I am looking for a way that is easier than this.  How can I save / output / export only the objects I currently have selected, to an image file, in Adobe Illustrator CS5? Norms Induced by Inner Products and the Parallelogram Law How to compact VirtualBox's VDI file size? I've a VirtualBox VM which configured a very large hard disk size (bigger than host). By my mistake, a program on the VM generated lots of log files and the VDI file size keeps growing until there is no space on the host.   Now I've deleted the log files but the VDI file size are not getting smaller after using VBoxManage.exe modifyhd "C:\Virts\mybox-i386.vdi" compact  Is there a way to really compact the VDI file size? Thanks! Setting items to status-completed before they're deployed In several scenarios, including two today ( and ), we have had bugs set to  simply because the fix has been checked in. Just because the code portion has been completed does not mean the work is done, and this can be confusing for users who come across the same problem. Until then it really is  or maybe a tag that doesn't yet exist (status-checked-in?).  Particularly in times like this week, where the stability of the system is a priority, I don't think this status should be set merely because the code has been checked in - it should happen when the code is actually deployed and verified. Currently the devs are being very good about telling us that the code is done but they're not sure when it will be deployed, but I think that is because of the stability issue. Should initial e's after h-dropping be capitalized? A new Victorian-set British novel begins sentences containing h-dropping with lower-case e's, as in " 'e took my money, 'e did." This seems incorrect but I'm at a loss to find the rule. Is there anything I can do about someone who has pointed their domain at my ip? This is kind of a weird request. For some reason whoever owns safeandbuy.com has pointed their domain at my IP address. The reason it's a problem is that I'm having all kinds of crawlers that are trying to crawl my site with that domain name.   Is there anything I can do about this? Is it posible to add iframe directly in lightning components? Is it possible to add iframe directly in a lightning component as below to visible in community sites ?  &lt;aura:component implements="forceCommunity:availableForAllPageTypes" access="global" &gt;     &lt;iframe width="800" height="600" style="border: 1px solid" src="---" /&gt; &lt;/aura:component&gt; Handling jQuery Component Collision In plugin development, what is the best practice to prevent jQuery component collision on the front end?  For instance, let's say I include the jQuery Apprise dialog in a plugin that loads this on the front-end for something, yet another plugin may do the same. Because this gets loaded and declared twice, or perhaps one is forked and customized while mine is not, we get Javascript errors on the frontend (I assume).  (Note that I'm doing the best practice of using the wp_register_script() and wp_enqueue_script() strategy via a wp_head() action event in order to load a jQuery component on the frontend.) Polymorphism vs Overriding vs Overloading In terms of Java, when someone asks:      what is polymorphism?   Would overloading or overriding be an acceptable answer?  I think there is a bit more to it than that.   IF you had a abstract base class that defined a method with no implementation, and you defined that method in the sub class, is that still overridding?  I think overloading is not the right answer for sure. Why aren't we sterilizing N95 masks? How to change/rewrite the lost password url? I used iThemes Security (formerly Better WP Security) hide back-end functionality to change the login url to /signin however clicking the lost password link /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword now generate a 404  Manually going to /signin?action=lostpassword works.  I came across the following code below which is suppose to make the change to however after some testing it doesn't seem to work  //******************************************************* //Function to change to lost password url //******************************************************** add_filter('site_url',  'wplogin_filter', 10, 3); function wplogin_filter( $url, $path, $orig_scheme ){     $old  = array( "/(wp-login\.php)/");     $new  = array( "signin/"); //this can be change to login or whatever or may remain there     return preg_replace( $old, $new, $url, 1); }   add to .htaccess  RewriteRule ^signin$ wp-login.php   How can i modify the above code in order to change the url for the lost password? Show that $S + T$ and $aT$ are linear Let  $S:  V \to W$ and $T: V \to W$ be linear transformations. Given $a$ in $\mathbb{R}$, define functions $(S+T): V \to W$ and $(aT): V \to W$ by $(S+T)(v)=S(v) + T(v)$ and $(aT)(v)= aT(v)$ for all $v$ in $V$. Show that $S+T$ and $aT$ are linear transformations. What is the rough estimate of salary value for a taxpayer to pay AMT? For US federal tax, whether a taxpayer is subject to AMT is determined by a complicated way in Instructions for Form 1040, Line 45, which involves an incomprehensible "worksheet to see if you should fill in form 6251".  By simplification and approximation, is there a rule of thumb for an estimate of a salary value of a taxpayer, so that a salary above the value might cause the taxpayer to pay AMT with a big possibility, and a salary below the value might not with a big possibility?  Why do the following two sources seem to differ greatly in estimates of the boundary salary value:    says that  the possible boundary salary value for a single taxpayer  to pay AMT is $53,900.  says that      Taxpayers with small incomes fall within the AMT exemption limits.   That leaves the upper middle class to face the tax, especially those   with incomes between $200,000 and $500,000    Thanks.
