Yup

Also, the XO were made in such a way you could open it and investigate yourself. Not all countries released them with that feature though.

Well, you can still access it tough. And they are made to be durable as fuck

Tough they should deliver a Solar Charging Station with each Batch XD

And a dinamo-charger

Just in case.

Oh yeah!

Or that

In India they invented dynamo chargers for XO

Technically with a bit of engineering, copper and magnets they could make a bike that charges a capacitor from which they can charge their XO XD

Well, with that stuff, two guys from Lugansk made a emergency power supply for themself.

They actually have electricity, water and stable internet in a warzone.

Yes. Even the newer ones would resist a fall from a metre on hard ground. Mines did many times.

Internet? Do they use Amateur Radio Freq?

Only by using bike for electricity generating, set of 12V car batteries for storeying it and a set of handmade antennas to get 2G connection from Russia.

The same reason i use Thinkpads

i have no idea how often an average Pc would be dead by now given how i handle this thing - since i bought it second hand too XD

Thats a good feature in a place with ice on roads 9 months a year.

The 2G bit is the most amazing of the batch

Well. Desperate times, desperate measures.

They get enough bandwidth to upload videos on youtube.

I had no ice there, but trust me sidewalks are pretty hard. And most of us were getting online in the street by sitting around the school.

Thats impressive - i'd gone with the much less energy-heavy Amateur Radio but that just doesnt yield the same speed

School / high school / kindergarten

Heh, when I was studying in school, I was getting online by calling a dialup number from home at sundays x3

And who would provide you the connection?

They're on their own.

Got to ADSL when I was in 9th or 10th grade.

When I was in primary school I had no Internet. Just saying.

Yeah, well, I'm older and I born in a South American country. ?

This also offers some Gateways

Whats primary school for you?

Kids. School between kindergarten and high school.

So you can Amateur Radio Net <=> Real Net

You just said that you was getting online at school, that means that you had a kind of wireless connection back when.

No. I wasn't going to school myself. I was helping with the project.

I don't really think that such freqs would be available in a warzone. :)

True, its total crap if you dont want to be detected

I got my OLPC laptop (not XO) in Computer science technical school.

but nobody really cares in a warzone if you use it

but nobody really cares in a warzone if you use it

Of course nobody does, they just jamm the band the hell up and don't care.

AFAIK satellite internet is used in warzones

I know my friend in Afghanistan used that. Expensive as hell and unbearably slow, but when you don't really have a choice, you use that

Is still Lugansk is still in war, @gwindor?

Is still Lugansk is still in war, @gwindor?

Not sure about now, military actions now mostly take place to the south, near Donetsk.

It is very expensive though.

Expensive enough not to be an option at all for common people.

I got my OLPC laptop (not XO) in Computer science technical school.

I had a XO from a friend to play with. Then I received mine when I went to technical courses. And then the project gave me two machines to play with.

What stuff did they spread back when?

I am not there, can't say better.

People who I knew and who lived there fleed to Russia as refugees.

What stuff did they spread back when?

Uhm... What software you say? Or the hardware?

Uhm... What software you say? Or the hardware?

Hardware.

Hardware.

Oh! It depends on levels. Kindergarten wasn't included at first but now they have tablets. Primary school had the two first versions of XO and then switched to something else, more powerful. High school had XO at first and then "classmates" from Intel and now I think they have something else but I'm not sure because I don't live there anymore. And higher education, like pre-university, technical courses, etc, have "classmates" from Intel.

These machines ranged from the first ones with 256MB RAM and a 300mhz processor to the last ones (that I'm aware of) with 1GB RAM and Atom dual core.

Does the above answers your question, @gwindor?

Yup, completely. :)

I am not there, can't say better.

It's fine. It's the situation itself what makes me pull that ?

Yup, completely. :)

Excellent!

Welcome aboard!

And good morning. :)

hey guys, I installed xampp on my fedora. i created a new group "xamppusers" and added my user to it then gave 775 permissions to the htdocs folder but still can access without sudo.

Getting this in permissions dialogue Security context: unconfined_u:object_r:usr_t:s0

Got around it by assigning the htdocs folder to the group named after my usernamr instead of xamppusers. Let me know if this approach is bad.

i updated my fedora 25 hp laptop and the wifi stopped working. akmods doesnt help. any ideas?

If it's a relatively new system, you may have SecureBoot enabled. If you want to use third-party kernel modules, you'll need to disable it in the BIOS.

You're welcome. There's some talk about selinux blocking external kernel modules in a recent update. See https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-31d4ea5eb1

Dont permanently disable Selinux

Never install and use this crap. Install Apache2, php and MariaDB from repositories instead.

Indeed

Never ever install untracked software

IE: softwares packaged in tarballs or the ones that have their own installer
