Those researchers propose that this 14C gas could be collected and used to produce man-made diamonds by a process known as chemical vapor deposition using low pressure and elevated temperature, noting that this diamond would be a thin sheet and not of the stereotypical diamond cut. The resulting ...

https://github.com/davidgiven/wordgrinder The pet might not, but sure it could be done without too much problem on any linux, especially if you have one with a good package manager like apt-get. This is a minimalist app so there you go. It was designed to even run in terminal on linux AND windows ...

Did you try connecting a mouse/keyboard to it? But yea thats cool that it works that well.

Sorry, you said you hadnt got the otg cable yet. I am curious how that works with it.

@mouldy Not cli but a forum member attempted an epubviewer application, see here: https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=26010#p26010 This is exactly what I was looking for. It is tiny script with no oddball libraries needed, and it works well with options for font, background, etc. Surprised ...

There is probably a nice CLI one out there, linux has been around long time. Just one man band type app that got lost in time when no longer supported. I did run across a couple old ones but they needed some old oddball libraries and such. Whats weird is that there isnt even a truly nice one for ...

I was looking around for a truly minimalist CLI epub reader. Meh. Didnt find anything that worked that well. But did find what has to be absolutely most basic way of reading epub. Open terminal and use unzip command, it can unzip epub without renaming it. You will get several html files which ...

Actually most cheapo Chinese stuff works at least for short time. But then wiring or plastic used fails. Drives me a bit crazy when something fails cause manufacturer cheaped out and it wouldnt have cost that much more to use higher quality components. But seems nothing is made to last very long ...

This is pretty cool, not sure how useful in modern world when Libre can boot pretty fast, but sure does bring back memories of DOS word processing. This would be great if you had a very marginal computer to work on, say an old thin client or something. Sure one would get used to the keyboard ...

Hmm, had heard of using hotkey in windows with script. Looking and linux Xdotool seems like it could do the same to advance page in Kindle for PC automatically. Automatic Screenshotter then detects the change and snaps a pic. Either tell Xdotool to push right arrow key, sleep 3 (or whatever) and ...

https://www.donationcoder.com/software/mouser/popular-apps/automatic-screenshotter This works perfect in WINE 7.1 on EasyOS. Anyway its an app you can set to automatically take screen shots or partial screen shot either with timer or by pixel change or both. For any purpose you find useful. With ...

Thanks. I may wait to see how it works out for you, though this is cheapest I have seen one of these. And dont have to even wait for that slow boat from China.

The one I got is supposed to work like this only it has three usbA ports for peripherals. But now look at this image from one you link... https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+Z1PqUepL._AC_SL1000_.jpg It says the power into it cant power/charge the device, only provide power to the peripherals.

Onn has bluetooth, so yea it should. I got a powered micro usb hub, it powers the onn, but plugging mouse and/or keyboard does nothing. I then plugged it into my phone, still nothing, so hub maybe faulty? I have a bluetooth mouse around here, got it to use with some netbook cause the trackpad on ...

Ok, it didnt like my sound card as "device" would error out when I tried to run it like that. In MX19 gtk-recordmydesktop, replaced DEFAULT with pulse. That worked. I can record with sound now in MX19. On the EasyOS EasyCast version, not seeing where to tell it to use pulse. But go look again. EDIT ...

mouldy :- If that's a front end for RecMyDesk, there's a wee trick to getting sound working. In RecordMyDesktop, you have to set up the sound parameters before you try doing anything. I also found out, long ago, that unless you do set the card correctly, it won't actually fire-up at all. OOTB ...

I was playing with easycast screen recorder. It appears to be a front end for recordmydesktop. Anyway it works fine to capture the video, but NO SOUND. Is there a trick to getting sound along with the video? I was attempting to capture small online video playing in Firefox and Firefox playing sound ...

Went grocery shopping today. Walmart had display of them at end of aisle to catch attention of passerby. I threw one in the cart. Dont have a hub yet so was just playing with it using included remote. Using a hdmi to VGA adapter. My monitor was not happy, big warning in middle of pic to reduce ...

Success. That WINE 7 appimg must be faulty. I installed the one size fits all modern Puppies generic dotPET package for WINE 7.1 and it worked, didnt seem to mind my kludgy copied 32bit library from MX19. Oh and its less than 100MB so fifth the size of that faulty appimg. Anyway I have Kindle for PC ...

@mouldy :- The only thing I've so far been able to gather about 7-series WINE, is that it's been completely re-designed from the ground up....and now does most things totally differently to all previous releases. It's gonna be a learning curve all over again! (*shrug*) Mike. ;) I have gotten wine7 ...

Am I missing something on the resizing. Its pretty darn easy with mtpaint, just load image and use the scale canvas option, make it any scaled size you want. But if that is too much there are lot free image hosting sites that will resize image when you upload if you choose that. EDIT: I did this ...

This thread got my attention, recently installed EasyOS and it does have a very limited repository. Some programs you can kludge and fudge copying files statically. Many you can not. Having to compile programs easily available for other linux through package manager seems burdensome. Unfortunately I ...

Same deal using Azilink, needed /dev/net/tun. Azilink is similar but older open souce tethering app. There is an Azilink apk you sideload to phone, then works with any computer that has openvpn and adb installed. Really made cause early Android didnt come with native tethering. Then the phone ...

Ok, to run easytether on EasyOS, I need /dev/net/tun. I have run across this in couple Puppies and other distributions. But running this solves that: mkdir /dev/net mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200 However in easy, once I shut it down and reboot this has to be run again, unique to easy, most ...

I ordered a new Sandisk Ultra stick off ebay since I am down to one very old stick that I can still find. But kept beating my head on rock trying to get frugal current version to boot from a SSD partition (its sharing with Slacko). I finally relented and downloaded the old 1.3 iso version and burned ...

Seems I reached the end of the road :( Perhaps it is time to buy another usb-stick! I recommend get a good quality one, such as SanDisk Ultra, or, if you can pay more, the SanDisk Extreme. Been a while since I played with thumb drive, only one still in my possession is maybe 4GB and usb2. This post ...

Yea not a practical daily driver computer at all, but still be lot fun to make it work. Been reading more about linux on android computer. Termux install might be most practical.
