That s from USB 3.0 HDD to my PC, via USB 3.0 port. Everything is 3.0.

That constant speed during most of the process is about 115 MB/s, then, out of nowhere, crash down to 15, a little raise, and fall again, and then it finished. Why does it do that?

I recently bought a new Acer laptop with Windows 8.1 and it came with all sorts of gibberish programs that I uninstalled immediately. However Task Manager still has a lot to show. Through a gadget, I found out that there is about 110-120 processes running at the moment, while on my older machine (still a very capable gaming machine), Win7 Desktop PC, the same gadget shows me about 50-60 processes at given time.

So, is there anyone who knows how much background processes should there be active at a given time? An estimate? I mean, should I concern myself with that or not?

If you're fat and unhealthy and go through 2 year transformation into a fit and healthy body type with careful nutrition and supplements, when to stop? Or should you eat like that your whole life? I don't mean you should go back to old feeding habits, but this healthy lifestyle with careful nutrition and supplements is another extreme which (say what you will) you won't keep for the rest of your life. So what to do when you get your results? Keep them? How? And how long?

it's currently 2:30 at night so it might be it's just all in my head. I'm hoping it is. However, I have never felt like this. It's kinda hard to explain, it's like I'm anticipating a pain in my chest, but there is none. And after a few seconds, again. I'm very sleepy and I came to that half sleep and that feel just woke me. I woke fully and it didn't stop. It's like anxiousness, but... but there's nothing. I know I sound rediculous, but it worries me and I can't sleep because of it. And I really should get some sleep. This has never happened to me before and I do not know what to think or do. I'm going to my doctor first thing in the morning, but what do I do now? My first and worst thought is some kind of a weird unnoticable heart attack, but I'm 23. Is it possible? I looked for the symptoms of that online, and it says "cold sweat", but I'm not sweating. I'm feeling regularly fine, completely normal, no dizziness, no nausea, nothing. Could that be affected by something emotional?

Please help, I'm worried.

There was a picking, like for football practice. Only it was for some kind of a mission (...?) and one guy was picking out a squad of a few people but there was one extra guy available. Which meant that one guy will be left out from that mission (or whatever it was). And I thought he's gonna pick me in 100%! Because I was preparing for that mission and I thought I was good and... And then he picked all the other guys and two of us left for the picking. I was quite disappointed that I was among the last. And then he picked the other guy and told me something like "sorry man, that's how it turned out".

I was really pumped that I'll go to that mission and do my best and idk... anyhow, I was left behind and felt very disappointed. I woke up about then.

So what the hell is that dream supposed to mean?!

Hello, I'm a new seller on ebay and I have made 3 listings. One item has already been bought. Now ebay says (in the left column) under "Payments": Received £5.49 in green text, and Not received £0.00 in red text. And it looks alright, right? But PayPal doesn't show any transactions whatsoever. Do I have to send the money from ebay to PayPal somehow or what? Is it my mistake or the buyers?

Should I contact him and ask him to pay?

Also, the other two listings have gained 5 and 7 views in the first two days and remain like that. How come?! Can people see them? Because the "Time left" is still ticking down.

Thank you!

I know that there is some psychological effect that moon has on humans, although I don't know what that is, since I, for one, do not feel any different regardless of the position of the Moon.

But if Moon can lift massive amounts of sea water for about a meter (~3 feet), how come it doesn't affect our 50-130 kg bodies physically? Since we're supposed to be about 80% water. And, since gravity in general doesn't affect water only, how come Moon's gravitational impact is only on sea tide?

I have reinstalled windows just because of this same problem and it came again. Every time I turn my PC on, before the "windows 7 boot screen" I get 2 options:

Launch startup repair (recommended)

Start Windows normally

If I choose Launch startup repair, it starts startup repair, but after half an hour of "Attempting repairs", it concludes that it is unable to repair, and it gives me the "Finish" button. When I click it, it shuts down. And I turn it on again, the same two options are available and i choose Start Windows normally, and it boots windows all normal except for extreme boot time (5-10 minutes).

So, I have constant option for repair, which can't repair anything (with or without the disc) and an option for normal start, which take 5-10 minutes to boot.

How can I solve this? Are there any common causes for this? Like the antivirus software (AVG free) or something.

Thank you in advance!

I'm a 22 years old guy and I have a brother, he's 24. We still (unfortunately) live in the same house with our parents. Father is a seaman, so he's not home half of the time, including now.

My brother is super nice and smart and if I could, I'd make him a president! The problem is that when he does not get what he wants, by either his fault or someone (mother or me) doesn't want to give it to him, he bursts! He stands up, starts yelling, threatens to do this, threatens to do that, (very rarely calls me mean names), but he does frequently get in my face yelling from close distance and sometimes he catches me by the neck or punches me in the shoulder (never in the face because he has never had hit anyone in the face). He "catches" me like a guy who does not have any martial arts experience at all.

That physical part has been going through my childhood and I had been afraid to counter him one word when he bursts since then. I don't know, I guess I had developed some kind of fear towards him or something other.

I do practice martial arts for about a year now but I'm still afraid of him like that. He's bigger than me and I don't have room to maneuver in our house (it happens always in the house) when he comes charging at me + it's slippery to quickly move on the parquet or tiles in house slippers. Although I am certain that a good ***-beating would calm him down and put him back into his place he has never gotten any - at all.

The causes of his behavior are, as I have previously said, not getting what he wants, or not doing something his way. eg: he asked mom for GTAV and she said no because he has to study (he is very well aware of the fact that he needs to study just this more month) because he's getting final degree to go to the sea (like the father, whom he respects and obeys mostly without questioning). He is 24. He needs to study juuuuuust a bit longer (by his own damn fault), when said no to GTAV, he gets mad! He bursts, he yells, he is unable to talk to, let alone reason with, he's impossible. And later, when he shuts up, mother and I get that childish ignore treatment from him, like if I had left an empty glass on his table and it's been there since morning, he will now put it on my desk exactly in front of the keyboard. And something that we agreed was okay half a year ago, is now suddenly not okay and he's pushing his. Eg we agreed not to turn off all the lights from the TV, PC and other stuff in the room at night (it really doesn't bother anyone, he's just being a c u n t), and now suddenly, this morning, my PC had been completely turned off. I was annoyed and pissed!

Yeah, that's my brother. I don't love him. This is just the most recent part of the whole story, but he made me less self confident, less secure, waaaaay more stressed, he had me punching wall out of fury towards him.

He is also lazy as ****. He studies 3 college years 4 years already. + He dropped out of the first college on the second year because "that was not for him". He's ashamed of those 6 years because all of his friends had already advanced in life. And today he spends his time watching movies from his mac book pro (maybe 1 percent of our population uses mac) on the huge plasma TV in the living room. Not just movies.... tv shows, popular and commercial (who the hell downloads and watches CSI?!), idiotic sitcoms, and plays games on MY computer (windows). When going to bed or is because of whatever reason unable to go to his mac, he plays subway ******* surfers!

Think about a lazy person. Now think about someone double as lazy as that. Now double. Now double. Now quadruple. You have reached him.

He's not gonna become a criminal, unless being a c u n t becomes a crime, which wouldn't be so bad! I don't give a slightest f*** about what he does with his life. How do I deal with him now? He bullies both me and my mother. He's smart and he's careful when he does that, when he loses his temper. He's just not smart enough to understand that that behavior is far away from normal.

what is that? is it some kind of a membrane? English is not my native language, and I don't know this term. I know of a ship, eg cruise liner, airliner, eye liner in makeup, I've even heard of low-ionization nuclear emission line region (LINER), but I don't have a clue of what it is in pressure tanks, and google translate is at the pinnacle of uselessness.

So please, if you can and are willing to, explain to me what a liner in a pressure tank is and what does it do.

Something like Windows' voice recognition, but better, so I don't have to shout "exit" three times, or words like that.

What are your experiences?

I need a dynamo that can produce about high amperage/low voltage electric current, about 2400A/1.5V can I find those things somewhere? Is that even possible? Or 1000A/1.5V.

All in all, I need something that can convert torque into about 1.5V direct current. What should I look for?

I'm interested in water electrolysis, and I need a generator (dynamo) that can produce low voltage and high amperage direct electric current eg. 1.5V/20kA, more-less. I'm a mechanical engineering student, and I'm not really acquainted with electricity, but I am interested in electrolysis of water. So, can anyone help me with that?

Also, how can I balance between Voltage and Amperage?

(given that Power=Voltage*Amperage) for direct current.

I appreciate any help, thank you!

Just informing myself and considering tattoo options.

Thanks

I have fond the lyrics, they go:

Oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ

Tat savitur vareṇyaṃ

Bhargo devasya dhīmahi

dhiyo yo naḥ pracodayāt

Translation is supposed to be:

O earth, atmosphere, heaven:

May we attain that excellent glory

of Savitr the God:

So may he stimulate our prayers.

And Savitr is some Hinduistic deity symbolizing the sun, but Google Translate doesn't recognise it as Hindi. Sooo... what is it?

Thanks

Of german production. Every WW2 documentary to my knowing is of american production. Am I misinformed?

Commonly known, for fire, you need a source of heat, some flammable stuff and supporting element. And oxygen is that supporting element. What other (if any) chemical elements can support fire?

Your own estimate.

Only thing the estimate is based on is that she is a girl.

A rough estimate...?

So I know what to aspire to.
