My wife has a Lenovo IdeaPad 320 which she likes to use at her desk in the recess of a bay window. Most of the time it is almost unusable because of very high disk usage. If it is moved away from the window by only a few feet the problem goes away - including holding it out of the window.
Disabling the wifi or using a wired connection makes no difference. No other devices in the same position are affected. The window does have copper sheeting on the roof, though I don't see how this would cause a problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated - we have put up with this for a number of years.
When I put my 32GB SD in a Windows PC and view it on Disk Management, it looks like there's 15 GB of unallocated space. When I run df within the system, this is the output:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
udev 316984 0 316984 0% /dev
tmpfs 92996 4172 88824 5% /run

tmpfs 92992 12 92980 1% /run/user/1000
I found a couple of quick guides for how to manipulate and extend the partition, but they don't address the fact that my boot/firmware is 48% free... Can I close that space and make it available to the OS? If I start the new partition right where the old one starts, it's going to leave my boot section 48% wasted, isn't it?
Thanks for any help!

Consider a Cartesian plane tiled with unit squares whose corners are lattice points. A disk is drawn with radius R centered at the origin. All of the squares containing any part of the disk are shaded, while all the squares completely outside the disk are left blank. In other words, the shaded area covers the disk while using as few squares as possible.
Define E(R) as the total shaded area that's outside the disk (Example illustration). What is the limit of E(R)/R as R tends to infinity?
Hi everyone!
I'm doing a job as a contractor for a company that manages plastic for packaging. They have an old (really old) machine that they made from scratch when they started and it is used for packaging of plastic rolls so they can be transported to their clients. My job is to make an automatization of this machine, because today the operators use physical force to operate the "press", which is not desirable by any means.
I'm actually close to finish this project, but I'm missing a covering for the plate that holds the rolls. This covering works as an interface to not damage the product and also because the rolls are, understandably, not equal in height. I've thought of using some type of rubber or foam-like material to make this interface, but I'm not sure what is a good material for this application that I can find easily and is actually cheap.
Here is a photo of the thing before I started working on it. Note how the machine operators rolled the top plate with a lot of plastic to fit this necessity. Sorry for posibly breaking rule 4, but I've had no luck searching in internet for a suitable material, be it for availabilty or cost and I have barely any experience with this. Do you have any good advice guys?

EDIT: I actually forgot to give this info. The force this plate exerts is be around 500N (~112 lbf) at the air pressure and masses we have. It's comparable to the force workers do while operating the machine by hand. Do you think the foam could support this load?
Also, the plate is capable of rotating, so we're using a self aligning bearing to give us better stability. The covering will let us have higher friction and a "homogeneous" surface for the rolls
I have the Lord of the Rings special extended dvd edition
When we use part two of the return of the king disc , it seems to be instead, a German version of the appendices part 6. Could this be a disc printing issue? I’ve had this set for as long as I can remember, maybe over 10 years and haven’t used these DVD’s in around the same amount of time.
Thank you.
Hi there, just a little infor about myself before the question starts. I'm by no means a pro in pc building, with only knowledges of how pc work basics, in other words, please give me answers in "normal" English Otherwise my brain would froze lol, ok I'll state the issues now.
I just recently upgraded my 1tb HDD to a 2TB SSD, I cloned all my files to the new ssd in order to set it as the new main storage, as I'm trying to give my 1tb hdd to someone else. Initially the cloning was fine and the computer booted up fine as well using the new ssd, but the Problem is the computer only stated it as a (Drive C: 100gb + Data D: 831gb), I know this is quite common and can be solved with the search on youtube and google, I did (ya know... The go to "disk management" and click the "add new volume" on the "unallocated partition" thing or what it's called.)
Here comes ny big cake! Yes, there was the (Drive C: 100gb + Data D: 831gb), but there was no "unallocated partitions" for me to add new volumes.
So I'm stuck with 1Tb of missing spaces, what can I do about the missing unallocated partitions to access the other missing 1tb storage?
Again, I'm a noob, so i apologize in advance if my choice on some words are wrong.
howdy
ive got a script here that tags a vm based on variables selected from a menu/sub menu.
my full script deploys a VM and once the VM is created it pops up with some menu options to select and set tags.the menu will pop up a submenu with key tagging names and values and then use the following command to tag the VM that is being deployed.
Set-AzResource -ResourceGroupName $RSG -Name $VM -ResourceType "Microsoft.Compute/VirtualMachines" -Tag $tags -Force
i thought that changing the resourcetype to -**ResourceType "Microsoft.Compute/disks"**would do the trick as its all part of the same function.but clearly this is not the case as i need to specify the full disk name.
how do i go about tagging the os and disk with the same tags as the VM itself?i feel i need to save some variables where i get the full diskname and save it as $diskname and $nicname or nic.ID... something like that...
can anybody shed some light on this?
#setting variables for testing
$VM = Server1
$RSG = RSG

So I’ve run into a problem with my PSX. I was playing MGS when I got to the point where I needed to switch to disk 2. I switched out the disks, pressed start, and the game then does nothing but go to a black screen. I thought that this was a problem with my disk 2 so I bought a replacement, but the same thing happens. I’m pretty sure that the console isn’t at fault because all my other games work fine, and disks have switched fine up until this instance (even switching MGS from disk 2 to 1 works fine). What could be the problem here and is there a solution? Thanks for any help anyone could give!
I’m covered under my HDHP from my employer (large company >5,000 employees). On my old HDHP with my previous employer, my prescription for lo lo estrin was covered at 100% and I paid $0 for it. Under my new plan, I have to pay full retail price as a tier 3. I use a manufacturer coupon, but for some reason the 3 month fill is more than 3-1 month fills. 2 questions:
- the pharmacy now says that the insurance is refusing to fill 1 month at a time and will only fill 3 months. Can they force me to do this?
- since this is self funded, is it possible to petition my benefits dept to cover this?
