[Trisquel-users] Charging On The Go
Anyone know of a good way to charge my laptop on the go without having to be connected to a car or an outlet? Here is an example of what I mean... Poweradd Pilot Pro Multi Voltage Compatible I wondered if that or something else would work on my korora penguin laptop. I am not sure how it would work on a linux laptop. But feel free to tell me of any experiences you have had. :)
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
we already have problems with the two browser updates, imagine if the developers begins to work in a third «IceCoñazo» ^_^
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
I want to see a browser named Icecactus based on Seamonkey!
Re: [Trisquel-users] tor-browser not playing videos
It could be a problem of codecs on your system. Tor Browser allows for gstreamer to be used which means that formats you play on your system should also play on the browser. Try going to about:config search for media.gstreamer.enabled and turn it false. Now go to youtube and try playing a video. It should use html5 and webm to play. If it doesn't work check if you messed with some Noscript configuration. IMPORTANT: If people want to support the tor NETWORK they should donate to people running relays and not Tor Project itself. For example read this Tor Blog post: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/tor-weekly-news-%E2%80%94-june-24th-2015 Nos Oignons really needs some love if we want the network to continue existing!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
..entonces?
Re: [Trisquel-users] tor-browser not playing videos
but at the same time making sure you dont get arrested so maby depending on your country it would be safer to donate to the tor project.
Re: [Trisquel-users] unetbootin fork
Rightly said, Muhammed. freedom is an ideal word that can fit to the context, as it alleviates issues related to price. Also mind that FSF's hardware certification program is named keeping user freedom above anything else.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
ha! it hasn't yet been updated, Gnu? btw: nice nick!
Re: [Trisquel-users] tor-browser not playing videos
@cooloutac, The Tor browser works great in Trisquel 7, at least for me. You don't have to install the browser, just download the archive, extract the files an use the terminal to run it (not as root). As danieru mentioned is not a good idea to watch videos through the TOR network. Anyway what videos are not playing, YouTube videos, other videos?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
Isn't that just a tower defense game, more or less? (I never played it.)
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
Hm, the only difference I gather from other tower defense games is that there are multiple paths. It might be possible to recreate it with an existing engine (not sure, since I'm not familiar with any of the libre tower defense games).

This one, although originally intended for the raspberry pi, is also good and worked on my Debian and Trisquel installations: https://samhobbs.co.uk/raspberry-pi-email-server

It is usually automatically done. On this system, I didn't have to do anything special in order to use sensors.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How to create a mail server?
Do you find that it is too hard or too much work to enter your query into a search engine?. You would have found links like the ones the people provided, but faster and without wasting their time.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
Yeah. IceCoñazo should ask you to allow or deny *each* HTTP request, GET or POST.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Charging On The Go
I am not sure how it would work on a linux laptop. the operating system is called gnu/linux see: https://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html and: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU/Linux_naming_controversy
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
I didn't intend that to only be funny though, I'd like to see a liberated (if not by far since, like FF, SM was quite free to begin with) Seamonkey!
Re: [Trisquel-users] How to shut up Windows users
I'm not gonna click on that link. I don't care much about windo$e users. I find them boring. You shouldn't waste your time with those who don't care and don't listen. I will tell you the big points you should use to educate someone you care about to switch to the magnificent GNU OS: - free software respects you and everyone around you. It is made by a community for the community. Transparency. - Free software is about freedom and social justice (instead private OSes are about dependency and profit for the corporations) - why pay for a backdoored OS that keeps restricting your possibilities (DRM and malware) and sells your private info to the highest bidder? - Why in the world should one give money to some idiot like Bill Gapes or whatever? -You pay for software that you cannot share with your friends and sometimes not even use on a different hardware than the one you're on when you made the purchase. Really? How stupid is that? - You will not catch a virus on GNU. Your hard-drive is not gonna fragment with usage. Your Os will be fast and smooth on day 718 as it was on day 1. - apt update upgrade takes care of all the software on your computer. Everything is always magically updated to the latest version. - You pay for an antivirus that gives you a mere illusion of safety (the windozz OS is backdoored and there is no anti-whatever for that). - Performance on a same computer when comparing GNU and Winzozz is clearly stellar on GNU and shitty on Winzozz (and on that ShitOS it gets worse with time due to the registry stupid architecture, malware and fragmentation etc etc..) -BSOD. Need I say more? Stability and reliability. - People install windose and all they learn about their OS is how to change the wallpaper :P With GNU you decide how your desktop should look like and set it exactly how you want it. - If you install and use GNU for some time you may actually learn something even if you are not a programmer.. I'm sure there are more points. Feel free to add. cheers!

Good point. But the user interaction makes it easier I guess.
[Trisquel-users] How to shut up Windows users
I need some help to shut up these Windows users: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/398092-which-windows-to-buy/?p=5369680 They think they are so smart and know all about Linux (yes they refer to the kernel constantly, dumbasses).
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
Nice Tomlukey! And very nice wallpaper! Btw I heard that the dude who made that wallpaper is a very talented genius.. X-)
Re: [Trisquel-users] Charging On The Go
ps is this the right forum for this question?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat 31.7.0
I second that. That would be funny.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How to shut up Windows users
Essentially what I was going to say. It is perfectly fine to bring these topics up but you have to pick the right situations. That said some times there will never be a perfect time and others aren't always keen to listen to a new point of view. I bring it up when relevant in various Windows/Apple websites but I don't push to heavily. Just putting the message out there in a simple fashion can be a huge help long term, it plants that seed of doubt in their current situation and another seed of intrigue. I admit that personally the switch to free software wasn't over night and it was from others slowly spreading the word in other forums that started me slowly on the path. Those that started big angry debates generally worked against the cause as it made the position look extreme - it was the more generalized simpler approach that did it for me.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How to shut up Windows users
You'll just be seen as a troll if you join a forum composed of mainly Windows users, and advise others not to use Windows on topics like the one you linked to.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How to shut up Windows users
First of all, you shouldn't try to shut up people who promote Windows. They have a right to express their views just as much as you. Now, as to dealing with people who don't agree with the libre software movement or even necessarily know about it, it's complicated. As ssdclickofdeath said, don't join a community just to criticize them for their views on software. I don't think you'll necessarily come across as a troll, but you will come across as a desperate street preacher of sorts. But if you're already a part of the community for a different reason, I think it's OK to bring the libre software position up as long as it's relevant. Based on my attempts to do this in the past, I think the important thing is to suggest, through context, that you are interested in debating the merits of your views, and then follow through with a pleasant debate if someone else challenges you. Be strong and firm, but respectful. For the record, I don't think it would be appropriate at all to bring up libre software in this particular topic. It's a topic asking for suggestions of Windows versions to use. Bursting into topics that are supportive of proprietary software and saying that it's bad is not helpful. The sorts of times when I would bring up libre software are e.g. when a malicious feature in a proprietary program is being discussed, when open source is being discussed, or when various alternative programs that do a particular job are discussed.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Charging On The Go
I've seen various chargers being sold, but it seems to me pretty much all of them are crap. Perhaps, instead, you should consider buying spare batteries for your laptop? (Think Penguin would probably be willing to sell you some if you send them an email.)
Re: [Trisquel-users] Charging On The Go
If that product works with you're laptop, it'll work, regardless of the operating system.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Closing Gmail/Outlook accounts.What is the easy way to backup all mails?
Use your local email program and download them? Or use fetchmail for the same purpose and save them in a maildir or mbox to access later? Gmail does support the normal POP and IMAP email protocols, after all. :)
Re: [Trisquel-users] tor-browser not playing videos
From Tor FAQ : Why can't I view videos on YouTube and other Flash-based sites? YouTube and similar sites require third party browser plugins such as Flash. Plugins operate independently from Firefox and can perform activity on your computer that ruins your anonymity. This includes but is not limited to: completely disregarding proxy settings, querying your local IP address, and storing their own cookies. It is possible to use a LiveCD solution such as or The Amnesic Incognito Live System that creates a secure, transparent proxy to protect you from proxy bypass, however issues with local IP address discovery and Flash cookies still remain.

Don't waste time trying to convince those people. Your time is better spent contributing to free software. Also, it's strange that that site is called Linus Tech Tips :P
