This question is coming back often, and the suggested steps are very often the same. In an objective to concentrate useful information in one place, here is a community wiki about it. I expect our best minds to participate in it, so we can have a reference of knowledge, for something like this.

@nhinkle Thing about season 4 (and any other IT Crowd season for that matter) is it left me fairly unfulfilled and frustrated. Guess I'm spoiled by the U.S. 12+ episode seasons.
Today, I wanted to annoy my sister by playing the air horn app on my iPhone. I forgot that I had headphones in. Let's just say I quickly had to change my underwear. FML
FYI ... edit suggestion queue is now visible to all 10k rep users ... they also get the link at the top of the page Also .... when an edit suggestion is approved ... a 2 point rep bonus is given to the suggestor ... daily cap and total 1000 rep cap for this applies
Probably my favorite FML because I could totally see my wife doing something like this: Today, I got into a car accident. Why? I was distracted by a floating spec of dust and was pretending I was in space. FML
regarding the 1k total limit: i have a hard time imagining anyone would ever amount that much from it anyhow. if you're involved enough with the site to make 500 edits and get them approved, you've probably gotten enough rep by then to be able to edit on your own. but maybe not
@Sathya oh my. he went to town with the ALL CAPS PRIMARY PART OF THE ELECTION
atleast I can go to any stack exchange site and edit away w/o having the rep. That's a big irritation for me - to visit a site where I don't have edit privs and see a question so bad ..

Now that Chrome's extensions are an official feature and there's been some time for developers to create extensions, what are some of the best extensions for Chrome super users? We had a similar topic earlier this year when extensions were still beta, but the chrome extension landscape has change...
@Sathya, yeah... I wish I could delete that. Since it's been merged, I can't. I dislike it because it counts against my answer ratio, but there's no way for me to get rid of it.
Signing on today, I was showing up as "user351327" on SO and "user46143" on serverfault. Looking at my profile, every field was blank.
I'm not sure if any of the fields besides display name used to have a value.
Yes, they're perfectly backwards compatible.
To quote Wikipedia:
Also, the new standard is backwards compatible with SATA 3 Gbit/s. [14]
Given that SATA is a standard interface, it doesn't matter whether it's a hard drive or disk drive, it should work with every SATA compatible device.

It's for pending edits from low-rep users waiting for approval. When there are edits to approve a number appears there and clicking this takes you to a page where you can see other users edits and choose to accept or reject them.
microsoft lets us download language packs free via our MSDNAA subscription. and there's a software tool by a third party that we can use to install the packs, that makes all the changes automatically
quite nifty
we went from a chinese win7 VM to an english one in <20 minutes
blew my mind
some wisecrack asked if there's a braille language pack for windows ^_^
where is the file located? are you an admin on the computer or might the file be opened elsewhere? have you tried saving it under a different name? Have you tried copying the entire content and paste it in a new Word document and delete it there?
that should cover most troubleshooting points :)
@projectdp I migrated your question to web apps, as Gmail is a web app :-)
Hi Ivo, thanks for your reply. I was able to figure it out. Yes I am an admin on the computer. There was no file opened elsewhere. I tried saving it under a different name but still got the same. The problem was the Watermark. I don't know what is this. I disable it then I was able to delete the image and replace it with new one.
rather than letting the paw detection detect each paw separately, let it cluster all paws of the same dog into 4 similar groups then try to use a combination of the supervised training set and some heuristics to draw a conclusion
though I think with some adjustments to my current paw sorting, things should work a lot better too
for instance, he normalizes the paws by dividing by the max of the paw
but it should normalize to the max of all the paws of that measurement, so it keeps the difference between the front and hind paws
it doesn't rotate the paws, which makes it work not as well on paws that are rotated (because the peaks don't align as well with the training set)
In my previous question I got an excellent answer that helped me detect where a paw hit a pressure plate, but now I'm struggling to link these results to their corresponding paws:
I manually annotated the paws (RF=right front, RH= right hind, LF=left front, LH=left hind).
As you can see there...
play video's on the internet? where would they be hosted?
@DMA57361 it would mean you'd take all the eleven (or whatever number) of steps from a measurement, then normalize them to the maximum of those eleven, rather than each individual step
I generally keep my laptop on 24x7, and at the end of the day it's really annoying to have my thighs burnt because over overheating.
The overheating seems to be a result of WMI Provider Host spiking the CPU utilization to 25% every few minutes. Any ideas why this is happening ?
I have an HP E...
I'm currently writing up an overview so they understand what the heck I'm calculating and so they can propose any adjustments to align it with the literature
and then I want to look into that stupid GUI stuff again :\
I have no idea where to start @Mokubai gave me a sample, but haven't gotten around to studying how to recreate something with my own results
ideally I would make something where you select a file (or multiple files) and then it starts extracting the results and show them in a bunch of graphs on several tabs
I think so far this has only been mentioned in comments, like about preventing link rot. So:
What smart ways to prevent images from disappearing can we come up with? Like maybe: how could we prevent image rot by requesting (some) images at some regular interval, or how could we get all (existing...
Download ProcDump from Microsoft Sysinternals.
Let it take a dump once the WmiPrvSE.EXE hits 25% for 1 second:
procdump.exe -c 25 -s 1 -x WmiPrvSE.EXE %HOMEPATH%\WmiPrvSE.dmp
This will create a dump in your User folder.
Feel free to repeat this 1 - 2 more times so you have more dumps and can...

Is it possible to do a repair install on a server 2008 R2 Enterprise machine like we used to be able to do on 2003? I need to reinstall on a remote server and don't have a driver cd in the drive just a copy of server. I am worried that when it comes back up I won't have any drivers for the NIC. I...
@KronoS sysadmin helped, I didn't want to go down that road without knowing I could do it first... plus google had conflicts left and right on whether or not repair was possible.
@Sathya You don't have to download them, just set the _NT_SYMBOL_PATH, it only downloads the needed symbols to the path you specified if I'm not wrong.
