I am pretty much the only Linux user in my company. Pidgin works ok with Lync (need to install pidgin-sipe on Ubuntu). Video and audio calls do not work, but text chats, sending/re…

Fully agree. What about Gollum Wiki[1] ? I have been using it happily for years. It used to be Github wikis, but they diverged apparently. It uses git as backend. You're in full co…

Sorry, my mistake. Jan 2020 indeed!

UK and tax havens have a long history. It is pretty sad and tells a lot about the quality of information in UK that most British people do not know about ATAD: Anti Tax Avoidance D…

The noise is very important. Any kind of white noise is soothing for a baby... noise from water, car or even vacuum cleaner.. I used to generate a noise with: sox -n soothingnoise-…

Thanks, too many edits indeed!

Correction then: ip addr | grep "inet " | cut -f 3 -d " "

I prefer a great deal plastic to environmental foe aluminium. To me their use of aluminium is a very good reason not to buy Apple hardware. I have a Dell M3800 right now, and the b…

Canonical should have made it clear that when the E4.5 was available last year, it was intended to early adopters / dev / enthusiasts only. But my guess is that it was probably awk…

Linux enthusiast here. Had a BQ E4.5 Ubuntu edition since April 2015 and I am pretty pleased with it. I love the UX. It has come a long way already: the off the air (OTA) upgrades …
