Yes Kersten PB is too closed to be able to trust it, not only for security,
but also for the ability to retrieve your data. Not mentioning exporting
them. You made me remember that me too once had to send my brain to them by
email, to get it fixed because it was corrupted.

It was with Personal Brain that I decided: "No more proprietary
applications. If I have a chance I'll go open source even if with less than
half the features of the corresponding proprietary application". I no more
looked back and am glad of my decision.

Hi Francesco,

yes, I also lost some "Datebases", because PB7 is not a real database with the 
full data-base guarantees. I use now an Standalone Debian8 VM DSVM1.

i) the PB7 team help me to get the corrupt files again running (Win8 I got the 
W10 image on my limited SSD disk, this causes the PB7 DB crash), but I could 
restored it

ii) I use the calender function inside PB7, so frequently I made the 
Zip-snapshot of this funny "DB"

iii) I hoped with btfrs I can move forward and backward in time on a 
deterministic computer, but my QR 3.1 was not accepting btfrs, now
(Still apple has some similar modern disk filesystem like btfrs in the near 
future)

PB don't support Linux in the full form, but for me it is still working quite 
well. I have more the issues, how I can integrate PB7 smart into the Qubes 
Workflow, like open this URL in a DispVM, etc.pp.
The main problem PB7 don't support scripting in any kind :-(
And I don't know, if Q offers command URLs

PB7 in the SVM1 with the Thought-URL
Open:VM:Disp1:www.google.com
(Open google search inside the DispVM)

Kind Regards

Hello,

I like to install thebrain 7:

JAVA is not a high security backbone, so in the future, I would like to install 
all JAVA Apps in a isolated HVM.

But for now, I run into this error:

Hmmm... This worked for me without the JRE download when I downloaded 
their current 8.0.2.2 version to a debian vm, which is using the default 
OpenJDK java runtime. It seems to run fine.


If you're using the fedora template, I suggest installing the OpenJDK 
JRE if its not already there. Otherwise you could use a debian template 
with OpenJDK.

I used theBrain for some years in the past (PB5-6 perhaps), but then I gave
up because linux support was so poor. They claim to support linux, but they
really support only windows and there are lots of linux issues that remain
open for years with nobody looking at them. So had to give up loosing lots
of data stored there, because there was no way to export it.

Also they claimed that the payment of the first release  would provide
support for future developments, but then wanted money for each new release.

So, it looks nice but it is not worth the effort, even if my wife still
misses it. If possible, I would look for something else.
