Consider it an early x-mas gift for the girl. I hope she is as delighted with her phone as with her generous daddy. I know a couple of people who got one of those. Several had really old Apple phones really worn out. People seem to do long with iPhones. One friend showed how the new phone can record...

The poor girl! An iPhone 7! You'll be responsible for any mental damage for her having to use such an antiquated phone in front of her friends!

no 34" curved gaming monitor.

You are a cruel dad

One computer for how many kids? There's gonna be fights who's on.

My 1st computer with an internal hard disk drive had no less than 10MB! Beat that!

Curiously all my boot times are slower now. I cloned 18.3 to the 850 EVO and are in the 16"s at best. Also the 830 is slower, inside or out the laptop. The couple of seconds rationally seen aren't the biggest problem. But, I often use this machine to check for something, then waiting for it to be po...

Hi, Add --start-maximized in it's launcher command box. I just found this switch here . Curiously I am now unable to edit the Panel launcher. I then edited the menu launcher and this seem to help for the panel launcher (which has the switch --incognito) as well. Thank you both. When you edited the ...

Hi,

Add --start-maximized in it's launcher command box.

I just found this switch here. Curiously I am now unable to edit the Panel launcher. I then edited the menu launcher and this seem to help for the panel launcher (which has the switch --incognito) as well.

Thank you both.

Suddenly Google Chrome is no longer opening maximized, whatever I try. I tried searching for a setting hidden in .config but could not find it, if it is there which I don't know. I'm out of options.

Tried it, but didn't like, stick with AnyDesk.

What operating system would they be using?

Is W10 booting in some sort of safe mode maybe?

I'm afraid it's not of great help but I'll share what I know and I do know an encrypted Linux on a smaller disk can be cloned to a larger disk leaving space for whatever. But then I still wouldn't know how to have a Windows on it and a bootloader selecting one of them. But it is possible to manually...

1080i is in fact just the same as 720p. Only 1080p gives you true FHD tv. Cable providers compromise on quality to save on bandwidth even if it is fooling the customer. For best TV quality use a satellite receiver. However often the FHD channels are subscription only.

At the moment I use Claws Mail. It is rather plain which I like but still has useful functions. Email collection on multiple accounts is slower than from other clients I used. I use POP3 because I always did but with numerous systems this is not most practical. I have a computer in a place where I s...

It's too bad the card and stick default has become FAT. Ext4 is so much better.

I installed Blokada on my Android phone. Make sure to only install the real version, not from third parties.

Sometimes it's hard to find the simple things. Most of us been there done that.
Well done and kudos for continuing your quest to get it running! That's the spirit!

There was a time every had to be done by editing config files and less savvy people -like me- were begging for graphical interfaces and now that I need to find one it can't be found! Thanks for the reply catweazel but I didn't find it. Only thing I found on the internet is /etc/default/acpi-support ...

I am looking for the power management config files. Not the power management tool from the menu, but the location of the config files so that I can edit these by hand. Searched everywhere, tried google, could not find them.
