Re: Transfer Files between Android and Debian
Thanks for all the information about Total Commander! I'll take a closer look at that! For the past several years -- ever since I spent a lot of time looking for wifi Android//Linux file-transfer solutions through my local, private router -- I've used something that I've never seen anyone else talk ...

Re: Debian sid vs stable
I'll put it this way if you compare window whit Debian sid you will realise that windows which is suppose to be a stable OS is unstable and that Debian sid in comparison is stable which is said to be unstable, and that's because it's compared whit Debian stable which is a rock betony titan solid re...

Re: Use HTTPS
Isn't https a choice?
Isn't it possible to easily do both -- serve https to users whose equipment can process it, but fall back to http for those whose equipment can't process https?

Re: How to install *.iso packages
Freecad MAY already be available on your .iso #1, and ready to be manually installed:

Re: How to install *.iso packages
Your Debian installation only requires #1 to be "normal." You don't "install" 2 and 3. They both contain EXTRA programs that you may choose to individually add to your Debian installation, if you need them. For example, I've been using Linux since 1996, but I've never needed to i...

Re: How many members here remember
OK. One more story... I recall using WordPerfect (in DOS) to embed some charts and a graphic in a paper around 1991. The professor held my paper in front of the class and praised it. It was actually quite embarrassing and the whole class was staring at me...angrily. After that, my fellow students s...

Re: How many members here remember
I didn't start using Linux until Mepis in the 90's. But, after doing tons of research on it, I bought the original Amiga that had one built-in 3-1/2" floppy (no hard drive) and only 512K of RAM. Paid a local guy $200 to solder on another 512K. Did my Master's thesis on it (was the first person ...

Re: ?howto troubleshoot? systems dies
Many years ago, I ran into a similar problem. Sudden, random freezes, with nothing in the log files to indicate what had gone wrong. In my case, the problem ended up being just ONE of the drive connector "tubes" fitting onto one of the drive pins too loosely (apparently, microscopically), ...

Re: Some people still actually work , even with a handicap
Thanks, Hoas, I'm doing much better than I was a year ago, but much worse than I was 2 years ago, two days before Christmas. On a side note, if you're gonna have a stroke, try to schedule it for ANY time, other than 2 days before Christmas. All the people who can really help you are gone on vacation...

Re: Some people still actually work , even with a handicap
I really don't "get" the point of this thread. Someone thinks that disabled people are cheating someone? Someone wants to brag that they're disabled, but they still work? I don't get it. My first stroke, 12 years ago, was certainly not a choice. Nor was my 2nd stroke, almost 2 years ago. T...

Re: Create TV's logo
Sheesh, can't a guy point out that the two logos look basically the same without having to read a whole series of replies on the minutiae of graphic design, and implying that he's ignorant, unrealistic and biased?
