@Serg ey you started with the assumption python does not have a module for parsing xml? >:-D It is always the 1st I check: does python or perl have a module I make it in that language :D
@blade19899 PHP is really ok, there are alot of big sites built on it so it gets the job done. but like javascript it wasn't really developed in a clean way, just patched together as the web grew and PHP was constrained to maintain backward compatibilty
so even if a better way of doing things became obvious, e.g. object oriented, PHP had to kind of add new features in a way that would still work with existing code
rather than build something clean right from the start
i just wanted to clear something in my head....i'm building a project and i have 3 main things users events (as some big event like a wedding or so) and offers....soo what's boggling me is how to make table connections with these statements a user has many events event belongs to user user has many offers offer belongs to user
the one to many and many to many relationship which one to use
Because I can't set the keys in the Properties class to String[] because of data type incompatibilities so I'm really not sure how to provide them to the Preferences class.
I have a laptop with Linux Mint installed. I had a power outage, and currently, it cannot boot - it shows grub rescue when booting.
I don't mind formatting and re-installing the system, but there are a couple of files which I'd like to recover.
I ran Boot-Info from a live USB, but it didn't hel...
no we all died in the apocalyptic end of humanity.
@William Just a suggestion, but you may wish to start out with jsut asking your questions instead of 'anyone around", because most people don't answer that :P
@DavidFoerster Um, OK. I don't think there was a problem in the first place though. The OP asked for something, got an answer and accepted that answer. Everyone was happy.
As a general rule @DavidFoerster, please avoid flagging accepted answers. There isn't really anything a mod can do about it and if the OP was satisfied, we may as well leave it alone. On the other hand, please do continue flagging. You're one of the best flaggers on the site!
@Anwar The thing is that mods can't do anything more than you can for that sort of thing. Yes, I could delete it but that's a shame since there seems to be a lot of information there.
Apart from that, what I normally do is go find the howto (there seems to be a newer version of it if you follow the link) and include the information myself. But that doesn't require mod powers so, in all, there isn't much reason to flag that.
@Terdon Good point. Thanks. Ok, I'll bite the bullet and edit it. I actually searched for the howTo, tried to find alternative of that guide but couldn't find any.
@terdon I spent about half an hour trying to edit that post using the new how to, but in the end I had to abandon the effort, it just didn't correlate :( @Anwar
starting to work on the blog webpage, I'm not sure if I'm doing stuff the right way, but I think I'll just try and post it on github after I've something to get opinions?
@RonnieMarlow when you download the ISO on the website, you either download the server or desktop version, when you burn it on the USB you will have whichever one you downloaded
@RonnieMarlow we dont have a server version. -ALL- Ubuntu have the same base. What we call "server" is Ubuntu with no desktop and NOT a standalone maintained system that is tuned to be server.
1 big difference: systemd is set up -with- a graphical-gui task that is empty and ends up starting a "multi-user" task. A server version would not have that and would straight up use a "multi-user" task
ignore the colors and the lack of stuff, I just worked on the navigation bar so far
It's position fixed
the orange will be the container with some logo for the blog, and the lightblue one will be the "navigation-info", like the links with the current tree: Home->Oct-2016->First Post
the search will have a form beside it, I'm just not worrying about it now since I'll still need to finish learning JS and SQL or another DB language to implement the search feature
cool, I was looking at LESS website, sounds useful. If I could use variables here it would save a lot of the trial and error I had to do to get things working :)
It saves a lot of time, and it makes the project more organized.
For example, if you use the same color in multiple places, it becomes easier to change later.
And sometimes you want to specify one color relative to another. For example, maybe you want links to be 20% lighter when the user hovers over them.
Usually what I do when I use LESS is to pick a primary and secondary color and assign them to variables at the top of the file. Then I just create variants of them throughout the rest of the stylesheet.
The neat part is that I can change the look of the entire page by changing those two colors at the top of the file.
@NathanOsman that's very useful! I think I'll do it manually this time though, I'll use mostly the same template on the whole blog pages, changing only the content, and I still need to worry about some more tricker stuff, like the scripts for searching and so on :/
Another update, now the navigation info has a layout (I'm planning on updating the information on it using JS, so it will only add the <p><a href...></a></p> with the info inside the <div>)
can I do that? I'm still on the basic JS stuff, but I think that can be done right? I'd fetch the path to the file in the blog, and then write it in the document in the right place
when you visit the grand canyons you should always stand on edge to look down. Otherwise there is no sense in living! And using a beta is less intense :+)
Is there a list of packages which i can uninstall but still have a simple desktop?
No. But it should not be too hard to accomplish.
I don't need any of the additional packages being usually installed. Just the file manager and that's it.
I see 2 approaches how you can manage this ..
...
by the way, any suggestions on making body background a little more alive than plain white? I was thinking something simple, like the dots on AskUbuntu background
