Re: I bee back
Our area is not very diverse in flower variety, at lest in terms of honey. Most of what we get is a varied Wildflower containing many different floral types but heaviest flavored by clover, usually Dutch Clover.

Re: It is necessary to add root password in Linux Mint?
sudo is intended to allow an admin to assign sub admins limited and specific abilities to do their respective jobs on a system. Not only does sudo allow for this, but it also logs every action/command entered by the admin/subadmin so that there is a trail to follow when things are done wrong and can...

Thank God For Linux Mint & Cinnamon
I have been running LMDE pretty happily for a few months now and yesterday I finally did the full updates which included Gnome 3 which i have been avoiding like the plague.

Re: my chronicle of LMDE on the family computer.
no, actually, that's a ""work" pic. It's a swarm that I was called out to collect last summer.
I run my own business as a bee conservationist, Integrated Pest Management services and beekeeping supplies and equipment sales.
