Personally I think this is great, this will mean more work in making GNOME
great, and unites the community.
I hope, this will also mean killing Snaps and just adoption of flatpak,
Fedora and
Sorry for the trump like comment, making GNOME great again :)
I am just happy for this change
Also don't forget to check http://libregamenight.xyz/ it has a new cool
design.

I wonder what are stats730 thoughts about this..
Even though everything said by
Will Hill seems ridiculous.
There a few important points against DuckDuckgo
1.- Is non free and there are Libre options (like searx.me or YaCy) so there
is no point in recommend it.
2.- DuckDuckgo is located on the USA a country with masive surveillance, even
You don't trust DuckDuckGO so you suggest to use google instead?

I understand now.
Thanks for taking the time to explain this to me my friend.
So sad the article is misleading.
Yes,
I wont suggest to get rid of apt :) just to also have Guix
I think I expend enough time, I mean in my post I do acknowledge that it
seems pretty secure and that it seems it does what is meant to do.
I also pointed some dowsides. That they on their website point. Like the lack
of OpenGL, which means if you work in something like design, architecture,
Hello :)
I would like to suggest that Trisquel 8.0 includes Guix the package manager,
(not confuse with GuixSD the distribution)
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/
I know it may be too late and that there is more work to do it, but I've been
using Guix and it is so good.
And also it
I looked into it, it seems that they think the secure approach is to use a
bunch of virtual machines to everything you need, so a virtual machine for
your banking stuff, a virtual machine to your work stuff and so on.
I don't feel like is a distribution for productivity, as it requieres 4gb
You have pointed 2 more dowsides to this approach: 1. Update virtual machines
requieres extra steps and can't be done automatically.
2.- All of this is pointless if you happen to use a compromised router. Which
could use a malicious DNS to point you to a different website than the one

I obviously meant proprietary software.
Please don't kill me :)
Ok not so happy then ??
I thought this tool could help a lot to accelerate coreboot/libreboot support
on chromebooks and some other hardware.
At least it seems like a good step even though is not the final for more
recent hardware support. But probably will not happen soon.
After reading this I searched for a software that helps with this.
I found pandoc http://pandoc.org/
sudo apt-get install pandoc
It can convert MediaWiki format to html format
The only thing that have to take into account is not to copy directly from
wiki (as it is messed up), instead, go

Thank you so much for the updates !!
Why not install in English and once installed try to install Italian language
from settings?
Thanks to you my friends cantor, HuangLao, dany4president, I am happy you
like them :)
I did 5 more because my friend Aprendiz_de_linux wanted more orange and
purple hope this is ok :)
Thanks my friend :)
Thanks my friend :)
I did them with Inkscape the original file with all the images is on the
first post, you gotta exctract it before use it (it is compressed as
Trisquel forum doesn't accept svg files).
I think inkscape will open with zoom, so zoom out a little and you will see

Well the logo already has a license under GNU GPL

If you want me to make a change tell me and I will.
Else if you use them and do your own please share with us.

Thats not what i thought at all.
I tryed to be kind with our new friend Abdullah. I understand he wants to
participate.
I would like him to try trisquel of course, but i never say to him to shut
up or to stop asking questions or talking with us.
And I absolutely not meant to be rude
Update it with all the users proposal so far?
Both my friends Magic Banana and Onpon4 are pointing something really
important here:
There technical details that you are not taking in consideration.
Now, I want to say something (keep in mind I am saying this in friendly
manner :)
I think you have to learn more about Trisquel before
Could yo please send a picture of the screen :)?
Do you have more partitions?
Did you try grub repair?
Do you have more that one hard drive?
Free Software Foundation is not against using proprietary software if you
are using it to make a Free Software replacement :)
I think there are a lot of pros using free software, and now even some
universities are ditching Adobe in favor of Krita, Gimp, Synfig, Pitivi,
Kdenlive, etc :)
1.- Debian is already free software by Default.(Just use with caution do not
add non free repository)
2.-I think you are talking about Trisquel development but I am not sure. I
think a developer has all the right to work in a way that feels comfortable.
One of the great things about Free
I will also consider the posibility of boon into a LiveDvd or LiveUSB and
resize home and root partitions in order to give a little more space to root
and less to home.
You can use Gparted for this.
But you should be cautious and backup just in case of (unpremeditated) data
loss.

I think you both can use ring:

Part of GNU and available under multiple plataforms :) also respects your
privacy and your freedom it is so much better than skype.
You can install trisquel on a USB, dowload this: https://rufus.akeo.ie/ (is
for windows) and use it to
Don't worry too much if you dual boot for school because you have to.
Right now the important thing is for you to learn. And try to do as much as
you can on Trisquel.
You will find that you can do almost everything from it.
Also promote to others Free Softwore and teach them about why it is
Just to be clear:
The main point of my post is was: to remember that Trisquel is about Freedom
and Ethics.
It was not to talk against any person or GNU/Linux distribution.

I've been using Trisquel for about a year my friend :) that's why I didn't
even think about Trisquel 6.0 but you qust gave a better reason than I did
that we can use Trisquel 7.0 a few more :)
Honestly I was never sure about those security updates, every time I do sudo
apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade there is something new there. :/
I can asure you my friend that even in Parabola they care way more about
freedom than updates :)
I am not against using a different distribution, in general my point is
"please let's give time to trisquel, is not like Trisquel 7.0 is useless",
not "do not use another distribution".
Hello :)
I know most of you are really excited about Trisquel 8.0 and so happy with
the new Alfa (I am really happy too).
But it seems important to me to remind you that Free Software is not about
technology or progress (something I've heard Richard Stallman say several
times).
Free
Well you do know my friend, lol
:)
Is only it was my mistake KeepassX is multi plataform.
I agree with t3g is more an special case software now. Not mavy need it,
probably better to keep it on repository
Mangy Dog is right my paint is a simpler option
For everyone not only people who has knowledge of design :)
Wrong forum my friend:
In order to build the game's solution, you need the following:
Microsoft Windows operating system (XP and up)
Microsoft Visual Studio (2010 and up)
MonoGame 3.5
The game is written in Visual Basic and was compiled targeting the .Net
Framework 4.5
No
This is a better option
I think keepass2 is better as it is cross plataform :)
I think there are more things to look at that just how heavy in resources it
is.

What books, ebooks, pdfs, websites, videos, tutorials, etc., do you like and

Now what books, websites, videos, programing languages, etc. do you recommend
me? Free content if possible
Thanks in advance :)
I can help with spanish :)
I think you are missing my point entirely.
Trisquel is not about new features.
Trisquel is about taking care of your freedom.
So we have to wait 6 months for installing snappy packages, yeah so what? We
have our freedom. Is not like we are gonna get a bunch of new programs.
Most of what I
Imagine this post:
"Hello everyone we are still working on Trisquel 8. No release date yet
because it is a lot of work"
Will you be okay with it?
I think most wont say: "hey thanks good to know", but "I don't care I want
Trisquel now".
I see no point in such a post

I only use duckduckgo.com and startpage.com, how about you?
Also if you recommend a decentralized service I have a question: is it

Do you use Yacy?

Thanks to the updates I get sick of windows. And that is what made me think,

yet =)
It is really funny!!
I played it with python3 (i already had pygame for python3) and I've played a
little bit and it is great, really fast and dynamic.
I've never played mario that much so I rather play your game =)
I will try to make a good level for the contest
I will make a level to participate on the level contest.
I have never participated and I am not a programmer but I think it will be
fun =)
I changed my password to one of the type you suggeted =)
I see then must be something with the desktop environment lxde

I understand.
Is just that in my work's computer with ubuntu 15.10 I was able to use the
password manager. I was hoping it had something to do with the version. But
now I think is a bug of ubuntu 15.10 instead.
So I just installed Enigmail on IceDove and created a Private and Public key.
The problem is that neither Enigmail not GPA allow me to use a password
manager. I can't copy and paste the password either.
This means I have to type the password every time, but I would like to use a

I don't mean to not share the link here, what I meant is that instead of
sharing http:thelink.com you share here the link that the proxy of
starpage.com gives you.
For some reasons:
1.- Many links are http and not https, this allows many people to see what
you are looking at. the proxy
We like to share a lot of links here, but unfortunately, some of them contain
non-free javascript, cookies, advertising and trackers.
But must of us don't like that kind of links, so i suggest that we begin to
share links from the proxy of ixquick.com or startpage.com.
It is really easy

I recently posted about the password generator by jxself.
And I would like to learn to do those kind of things by myself. Where do you
recommend me to learn?
What change does the script needs in order for it to include things like

Indeed we should change our passwords regularly and thats why I rather use
your method.
That way I can keep my passwords with me withoud the need to store them.
Is kinda hard to change a password because I have 2 computers in my office
and my laptop so it is a pain in the ass to change a
As you probably know jxself is an active user here and do a lot of work in
favor of free software. I was reading his blog and I saw this interesting
program:

The idea here is to not store the passwords in a program but generate them
every time
wich...
Which.
Sorry english is my second language and my english is far from perfect :(
I hope I made my self clear.
Bottom line it is a legal issue that is not about being right or wrong. And
is an important one as it is about respecting users freedom.
Hi t3g
ZFS is not a probelm of being right or wrong. It is about license.
As any other software, unless it is under public domain, ZFS comes with a
license, a license which is called
Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL)
Now, GNU/Linux is an Operative system with a license
It looks really nice :)
I was thinkin about installing it, but I don't have much time right now,

How can I do that?
Thanks for your answers :)
Hi!
Up until recently I had an owncloud server with no-ip.com I am now going to
remove Xubuntu from it and install Trisquel, and I am wondering which dynamic

This comment:
"Bottom line, which is easier to argue with:
1.) All non-free programs are an injustice. Non-free software should not
exist.
or
2.) Trisquel is better than Windows/MacOS?
Nobody has been able to effectively argue with me on point one."
