Here is a simple example of a standard /etc/apt/sources.list file for Ubuntu 12.04: 



deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main universe restricted multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise-security universe main multiverse restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise-updates universe main multiverse restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise-proposed universe main multiverse restricted


The easiest way to edit the sources.list file is from the terminal in nano editor using the following command:



sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list


The instructions for using nano are always displayed at the bottom of the page. Use the keyboard combination Ctrl + O and after that press Enter to save the file to its current location. Use the keyboard combination Ctrl + X to exit nano.



A standard sources.list file for Ubuntu 16.04 looks like this: 



deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial main restricted universe multiverse 
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main restricted universe multiverse 
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu xenial partner


A standard sources.list file for Ubuntu 18.04 looks like this: 



deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse 
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ bionic-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multiverse

            Which professions warranted travel in Medieval times?

I've never really liked "Adventurer" as a job, and would like my story to have a kind of unlikely-hero vibe. besides the common "Traveling merchant", what kinds of artisans or professionals in fantasy would have a reason to move around the world (or at least visit other settlements)? First time posting, so let me know what to improve. Thanks!

            How do so many people here on Academia.SE, and in general, afford lavish higher education programs?

            Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 45 down vote favorite 7 I graduated last year with a BS in Computer Science. I do not come from a particularly wealthy family, (very low middle class), and was only able to afford my education via school loans/scholarships and working low-wage jobs, with no support from my family or anyone else. I realize some scholarship/loan programs extend into grad school. But I don't think those cover all costs. Now I'm lucky enough to have a decent-paying salary in industry, along with benefits and living on my own, and I'm thinking one day (sooner rather than later) I'd like to try my hand at research or continue my degree, but these things cost money, in addition to my regular living expenses. I read posts here often about academic people being in positions of choosing between these crazy research grad programs, some in Japan, or Ireland (while they currently live in the U.S./U.K.) then moving around between countries/universit...
