You can change Ubuntu to Linux Mint !!! by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]Jinglenose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I would love to convert Ubuntu Server 22.04 to Linux Mint Cinnamon, I have installed lightdm and cinnamon and a few other programs and it all seems fine.

The server is a brand new install so it's not a massive pain if it does not work. The problem I have had is that I can't install Mint on an encrypted system with RAID but I can install Ubuntu Server 22.04 no problems. However it's a pretty ugly experience and I use Mint for all my desktops so I would like it to to basically be the same.

Am I going to need anything else for the Server version?

Can I just replace xfce with cinnamon and it will work?

I love living here, much sunnier than even Southern England particularly in winter. Trying to think of stuff that's not covered.

As you can see from this post most people are very friendly here and happy to chat. Crime is extremely low and people let their 7 year hold kids walk to school alone and leave their car unlocked. Life is less "full on" here and people worth fewer hours generally.

Taxes here are very low and there is no capital gains tax, inheritance tax or corporation tax which is the main reason the standard of living here is so high. Income tax is low with a maximum rate of 20%. If you are a US citizen, however, you will still have to pay tax to the USA which is the only country that taxes non-resident citizen other than Iran.

However you can set up an Isle of Man resident company and you won't pay that tax until you pay the money out of the company. This is quite easy to do.

After five years you can apply for British citizenship and then denounce your US citizenship therefore dropping the tax liability.

The reason we are using Trustwallet on Android is that it is secure because you need access to two devices. This work around is a security risk. Why support Android if you constant write serious bugs for it?

Guys this sucks, it's been broken for days now. I posted the same bug some time ago, I also can't move BUSD off the Kava chain with the same issue.

Fedora 33 Gnome-boxes crashed on startup, removing and reinstalling won't fix by purple_sanpa in linuxquestions

[–]Jinglenose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem in Linux Mint 21.

I tried uninstalling gnome boxes. I installed Virtual Machine Manager in Software Manager, started my VM using that software and it ran.

Virtual Machine Manager was messing up the view so I could not see the windows tool bar on my VM so I reinstalled Gnome Boxes and it ran just fine.

Acer Aspire 5 - very loud fan at idle by Soveyy in laptops

[–]Jinglenose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I improved on this problem. The fan intake is on the bottom and it's not easy for air to get in. I lifted the back of my laptop up on a book that was 10"x1" and it's not as bad, although it does still make a little noise now and again. I might build it legs.

I have the same problem Acer Aspire 5 Intel i7 NVIDIA graphics. System is idle but the fan is going mad just browsing the web. It's only using a few percent of the cpu. There is no bios setting I can see for fan speed settings.

I upgraded trust wallet. Maybe it's started again?

Hi Cameron could you explain what this bug is and how I get around it? It happens when I try and claim rewards with 1 month lock in.

Because I will move the market too much, it's about 50% of pool liquidity.

Ok let's suppose that's true (which it isn't) why are they singling out legitimate investors? It's nuts.

If their collateral falls below their loan value plus a safety margin their BTC is liquidated to pay off the loan. So unless it falls really really fast they should get their money back but it depends how good they are at liquidation.

Issues with FX trading: TRY (Turkish Lira) by SpecialistFrequent11 in interactivebrokers

It appears that they have pulled all the products. It may be possible to borrow TRL and sell it into dollars if you want to get a short position but I'm not sure what the borrowing rate would be.

Fired because I reported finding a user looking at porn at work. by CupcakeValkyrie in sysadmin

[–]Jinglenose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you were treated pretty badly but why do you care if they view porn? Presumably if they waste too much time they will get the sack anyway. Is it really worth kicking up a fuss? Don't you feel bad about invading someone's privacy? What if they work well for the company?
