nice! i didn't know about that
Yeah actually in general, if education does move more and more online, we
should get together some libre tools and do it very quickly because before
you know it there's going to be proprietary software for EVERYTHING and
avoiding that is HUGELY important.
This means Xournalpp needs to be
"Whenever a group migrates to another medium, there are always people who
stay behind. You can never get people to agree on anything."
You would be surprised how flexible students get when their grade is on the
line. Trust me, no one is staying behind in my classes. They are all learning
how
It's not a particularly big deal because the University has paid for premium
accounts for the professors and TA's. If you are a student and you didn't
notice this issue it is because it is being hosted by a professor with a
premium account.
But it would be great if universities, especially
On the contrary I think it is arrogant to expect students especially to be
*required* to use proprietary software.
As a teacher, it is really important that learning tools are *accessible* and
that means free and trustworthy.
For example MatLab/Mathematica can easily be replaced by
nice username.
I am also interested in this. they are suggesting we use "zoom" which is
certainly not free at our university.
Jitsi seems to not allow audio in abrowser for some reason. this might be a
settings issue but i couldn't fix it even though i can verify my microphone
is on and
Well actually there's no bug.
I was just confused because some of the packages I tried to download to make
KDE connect work smoothly weren't in the repository
But at this point I don't remember what they are.
Turns out there's not really a problem with KDE connect at all. If you want
to
Is it possible to use KDE connect with Trisquel? Has anyone done it or is it
too nonfree?
Yeah there are instructions on how to do that online. There isn't a whole lot
of risk in trying it because if it messes something up then you can just
switch back to the old kernel on startup.
Interesting I recently had a similar problem with a touchscreen not working
after sleep. But hibernation was fine. Depending on what the problem is it
might be computer-specific. Does it only happen in MATE desktop? I can't tell
if your question implies that or not... What kind of computer
wow really? What about this whole "writing everything over with zeros"
business? That doesn't work for SSD's? There's no way. Then it would be like
an infinite information well. Or do you just mean that you can't do it to
individual files?
There is this thing called "riot-web" based on that matrix stuff in the
parabola repositories. It does not seem to be in trisquel repositories for
some reason. At least not by that name. But if it is in the Parabola ones
it's libre.
I have used Jitsi through a web browser which is my
I mean, but "the data" do you mean just the files in your :C drive (I think)
like documents and things, or do you mean the operating system itself?
I have never heard of installing Linux "over" windows. I don't even know what
that might mean. What do you want the final result to be?
Wow that's really amazing. Thanks for sharing! The blurring effects of the
hair is really interesting, giving it a photograph feel. I also like the
green/orange color pairing.
For anyone interested in wireless devices that work with Trisquel...
I just got my hands on a Sony Vaio p-series laptop. The model is vgn p-50 and
it is literally just a tiny, tiny laptop build circa 2009. The screen is like
7 inches wide. The versions sold in the US apparently do not have
Right. These forums and the IRC channels are really helpful. You can do
everything on Parabola that you can do on Trisquel. The main difference is
after you install it, you literally just have a terminal. So you have to do
everything "by hand" like creating user, installing your DE if you
Yeah it would be easier to help if we knew what you're trying to learn in the
first place.
My experience with Linux has mainly revolved around just kind of configuring
my system. For example, I set up i3wm to be totally usable with just a
touchscreen tablet or something like that. There
Ah I see. I guess what I have is PCI already then since I installed it where
my other wifi card used to be. I suppose I just need to figure out the
specific type to get them on eBay not that i need one anymore. thanks!
Where do you get those PCI cards? Do they have Bluetooth also? I was always
confused about this. I have installed a "Wireless N M.2 NGFF Card v2
(TPE-M2NCRD2)" which I got from ThinkPenguin but honestly it was *way* too
expensive. I have some older laptops that have a separate PCI slot... I
Which vpn are you using? I use NordVPN
I had a hard time configuring it as well. For some reason, it worked fine
using network manager with my other computer which runs Parabola (libre
arch).
What I ended up doing was copying the settings from my Parabola network
manager to the one on my
I don't know if this is relevant anymore. I am a mathematician and I hate
keeping track of paper. I also draw in Krita for fun. Here are the tablet
pc's I have used and the pros and cons:
