Torrent transmit12/29/2023 a Debian archive is a possibly very large repository of packages, including many different versions and architectures.The archive is too large to track efficiently as a single torrent: communication between the same users in many different torrents would be wasteful and hard to track to allow for fair downloading.a user would need to participate in possibly thousands of torrents simultaneously, wasting resources.There are too many packages to create individual torrents for each: if pieces are too small, the downloading becomes inefficient as a larger percentage of bandwidth is wasted on overhead.if multiple packages are present in a single piece, then a peer could waste a lot of bandwidth just to get the single package they need from the piece.The 2006 Google SoC project identified some of these concerns, and more have been added since (if you have a new problem, add it here).Īn archive is made up of a distribution of file sizes, many of which are smaller than the smallest piece size used by BitTorrent (currently 32 KB). These limitations of the current BitTorrent systems will mostly require modifications to the client and protocol to improve. Though the idea of implementing a BitTorrent-like solution to package distribution seems good, there are some problems with the current way that BitTorrent distributes files that make it unsuitable for a Debian archive. Certainly people have talked about ways of using gittorrent to achieve the same thing as this proposal suggests - but it's probably a good idea that both efforts carry on in parallel. Aria2 supports bittorrent too.Īnother derived BitTorrent protocol is gittorrent. It uses aria2 to download packages from multiple sources. There is another program called apt-metalink. apt-torrent is different in that it doesn't make any changes to the BitTorrent protocol, but rather it provides a wrapper around the BitTornado package which it then uses to download the package files. Unfortunately, the project failed due to time restrictions and the complexity of the project, but some good ideas came out of it.Ī similar project was accepted for the 2007 Google Summer of Code, and the resulting code can be found hereĪ program that is similar in idea to this one, apt-torrent, has been created by Arnaud Kyheng and is avaliable online. This was originally proposed and accepted as a Google Summer of Code project in 2006. This will further allow for future growth, both in the size of the archive and in the popularity of Debian. However, using a BitTorrent-like system, these voluntary mirrors could simply join the swarm of peers for the archive: mirroring only as much data and contributing only as much bandwidth as they can, providing multiple redundancies and being automatically load balanced by the system, and using the bandwidth savings to update their packages more frequently. Finally, non-primary mirrors may be slow to update to new versions of packages, and changes happen slowly as sources' lists must be updated manually by users. It also creates multiple central points of failure for users, as most depend on a single mirror, and does a poor job of evenly distributing the load, as some mirrors may be chosen more often by users. Some mirrors are already feeling the burden of the size, which has led to the introduction of partial mirroring. This system comes with some drawbacks though, especially as the size of the archive grows. These costs are currently being reduced by the voluntary mirroring system Debian uses to help distribute packages. Upon completion and widescale deployment of the service, the bandwidth and hardware costs of providing a very large Debian archive to hundreds of thousands of users will be dramatically reduced. The benefits of this project are clear, both to the Debian project and its mirrors, as well as any other developer wanting to host a popular archive but concerned with bandwidth costs. Proposed modifications to the user interface The original solutions proposed for the problems below Proposed protocol for interacting with APT Proposal for maintaining unique piece numbers This page is intended to collect information, ideas and comments related to adding BitTorrent functionality to the downloading of package files by Apt.

Tommy rees paul mccartney12/29/2023 Likewise, according to McCartney, John Lennon wasn't just into rock & roll when the two first met. But I was always busking it he knew the real chords and I had to busk my way around.” I'd have a bash, and I did eventually become the sort of family piano player, at New Year, as my Dad got a bit older and I got a bit more capable. They're quite complicated, the chords and things. All I ever did was sing them at the family sing-songs. They would sing these old songs all night - 'When The Red Red Robin', 'Carolina Moon' - and I took all of that in. What would happen is us kids would arrive at the 'do', the carpets would get rolled back, all the women would sit around with their little drinks… someone would play the piano and it was normally my Dad. In the 1920s, Paul's father Jim had his own jazz band, and as his son recently stated, "For years I've been wanting to do some of the old songs that my parents' generation used to sing at New Year. This reflects the childhoods of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, who were tuned into a wide array of musical genres via the gramophone, the radio, and family singalongs. Listen to the White Album alone and you will hear everything from rock to blues, folk to country, music-hall to heavy metal. One of the wonderful things about the Beatles' recorded output was its sheer diversity.

Half a century into his career, Paul McCartney has paid tribute to the songs that shaped his musical education with his first-ever album of standards.

Warp drive12/29/2023 That prediction may well prove somewhat optimistic. In the universe of Star Trek, the warp drive was invented in 2063. It could even potentially, if not constructed properly, create unintended black holes. There's also the issue that we have no idea how to create or maintain a warp bubble, let alone what it would be made out of. Any warp drive big enough to transport a ship would still require vast amounts of energy by today's standards, which would probably necessitate exploiting dark energy - but we don't know yet what, exactly, dark energy is, nor whether it's something a spaceship could easily harness. The ship, inside the warp bubble, would be going faster than the speed of light relative to objects outside the bubble.īy changing the shape of the warp bubble from a sphere to more of a rounded doughnut, White claims that the energy requirements will be far, far smaller for any faster-than-light ship - merely equivalent to the mass-energy of an object the size of Voyager 1.Īlas, before you start plotting which stars you want to visit first, don't expect one appearing within our lifetimes. In 1994, physicist Miguel Alcubierre proposed a radical technology that would allow faster than light travel: the warp drive, a hypothetical way to skirt around the universe’s ultimate speed. By a purely local expansion of spacetime behind the spaceship and an opposite contraction in front of it, motion faster than the speed of light as seen by. The ship itself would float in a "bubble" of normal spacetime that would float along the wave of compressed spacetime, like the way a surfer rides a break. The drive works by using a wave to compress the spacetime in front of the spaceship while expanding the spacetime behind it.

All things done without reason12/29/2023 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. They went out from us, but they were not of us for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists whereby we know that it is the last time. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning. Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.ġJohn.2 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us ) Bible, King James Version Bible, King James VersionġJohn.1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life

Speed of sound in m persecond12/29/2023 The ratio of the speed of an object to the speed of sound (in the same medium) is called the object's Mach number. In fluid dynamics, the speed of sound in a fluid medium (gas or liquid) is used as a relative measure for the speed of an object moving through the medium. The speed of shear waves is determined only by the solid material's shear modulus and density. The speed of compression waves in solids is determined by the medium's compressibility, shear modulus and density. Shear waves in solids usually travel at different speeds than compression waves, as exhibited in seismology. Sound waves in solids are composed of compression waves (just as in gases and liquids), and a different type of sound wave called a shear wave, which occurs only in solids. In an exceptionally stiff material such as diamond, sound travels at 12,000 metres per second (39,000 ft/s), - about 35 times its speed in air and about the fastest it can travel under normal conditions. For example, while sound travels at 343 m/s in air, it travels at 1,481 m/s in water (almost 4.3 times as fast) and at 5,120 m/s in iron (almost 15 times as fast). However, the speed of sound varies from substance to substance: typically, sound travels most slowly in gases, faster in liquids, and fastest in solids. In colloquial speech, speed of sound refers to the speed of sound waves in air. The speed has a weak dependence on frequency and pressure in ordinary air, deviating slightly from ideal behavior. The speed of sound in an ideal gas depends only on its temperature and composition. It depends strongly on temperature as well as the medium through which a sound wave is propagating. At 20 ☌ (68 ☏), the speed of sound in air is about 343 metres per second (1,125 ft/s 1,235 km/h 767 mph 667 kn), or one kilometre in 2.91 s or one mile in 4.69 s. The speed of sound is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave as it propagates through an elastic medium.

Acne free pock mark filler12/29/2023 Microneedling is a procedure that uses tiny, thin needles to create damage to the skin, to trigger collagen production.Steroid injections can reduce the inflammation of cystic acne and help minimize scarring.Fat Injections plus microneedling with platelet rich plasma (PRP) boost collagen production to significantly improve depressed scars alone or in combination with laser skin resurfacing.Treatment often includes minor surgery, laser treatments, chemical peels and fillers. Fat injections plus microneedling with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a very effective combination to improve the scar and skin.įor best results, treatments may be combined. They look like small round or oval skin depressions. Rolling scars are the most common type.This may be combined with chemical peels. Collagen induction therapy with a laser, radiofrequency or ultrasound energy will stimulate new collagen. Boxcar scars look like cut outs and are large.Fillers injected beneath the scar can help raise and diminish the scar. Radiofrequency treatment helps build collagen to fill in the scars from inside. A skin graft can be used to fill the scar, followed by laser treatment to smooth out the skin. They are caused by infected oil glands, and can be treated with punch excision.

Dogecoin core reindex12/29/2023 This morning (April 3), Elon Musk tweeted: "The value of Dogecoin may vary." Currently, Musk's Twitter identity is introduced as the former CEO of Dogecoin. (Note: znode.io is available, but you'll get a tip: you'll be needed to rebuild the database, just click yes.) If you are using a command-line wallet, use -reindex flag. with the hashtag "cashappthatmoney" Dogecoin official website Dogecoin trading platformĭelete all files and directories except wallet.dat before you can run the new executable wallet file. Cryptocurrencies enthusiast James Galante has launched a short video in TikTok titled "Let's All Get Rich" recommending that everyone invest $25 in Dogecoin to push the price of Dogecoin up to one dollar, sparking a Dogecoin craze that has once again swept the cryptocurrencies market Square launched a cryptocurrencies marketing campaign on TikTok and became one of the most popular mobile payment apps in the U.S. Source: README.Millions of people learn about cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin through TikTok. Instead you should either use the backup feature you find in the "File" menu or shut down Dogecoin Core completely before you make a copy of your wallet.dat. Do not copy your wallet.dat while Dogecoin Core is open. Please backup your wallet regularly and especially before performing this upgrade. The minimum amount of kept blocks has been changed from Bitcoin to reflect our shorter block times. This is currently incompatible with having a wallet on that client due to the fact that some actions regarding a wallet require the full block data. It is possible to run a Dogecoin node without keeping the full blockchain on your disk. NOTE: This is not a hard fork, as all existing wallets will accept version 3 blocks, although they'll fail to enforce the new requirements. These rules will only activate once a certain number of blocks are mined with this new version. This release activates BIP66 which enforces strict rules about how transaction signatures are encoded and therefore will introduce a new block version (3). Especially useful to keep track of your paper wallets. This means you will get information about incoming/outgoing transactions and resulting balance changes. It is now possible to add public keys to your wallet that will be held in a "watch only" state. Faster synchronizationĭogecoin Core 1.10 introduces headers-first and parallel block synchronization to greatly reduce the initial blockchain synchronization time. Notable changesįor further explanation of these, see the above mentioned Bitcoin release notes. Do not send transactions during reindex, as this may result in conflicted transactions once the reindex is complete. IMPORTANT: During reindex transactions will be "replayed" by the wallet as they're indexed, meaning that your balance will not necessarily be accurate until the end of the reindex process. This process can take a few hours, depending on the performance of your machine. If you run a dogecoind daemon, you will need to start it with the parameter -reindex once after you updated. If you run the Qt GUI client, it will prompt you to do so on the first start after the update. To upgrade from any version below 1.10 you will need to re-index once, as the block database format has changed. 1.10 is a recommended update for all users, and if you cannot update to 1.10 for whatever reason, you must update to 1.8.3 which is a critical security fix to 1.8.2. We therefore suggest to read the release notes of both Bitcoin 0.10 and Bitcoin 0.11. This means in terms of the code-base we introduced all the changes between Bitcoin 0.9 and 0.11 into this version of Dogecoin Core. Dogecoin 1.10 is a complete rebuild based on Bitcoin 0.11.
