Agreed. There are some things that you wouldn't expect to attenuate signals (that much) as well, such as glass, that can have a significant effect. Tinted glass can cause a 12-20db drop. In an outdoor environment you also should keep

Another issue to consider is that the maximum bandwidth halves with each hop on a normal mesh.

This looks like a fantastic tool. Unfortunately I use firefox. That being said, I use similar extensions for other sites including RES for reddit. I will definitely use it if/when there is a firefox extension. User configurable &quo

I was looking at the product picture for the module with the breakout board (2). It looks like the only available GPIO come from the 10-pin header at the top of the board. From what I could see it looked like there were only 6 free GPIO.

I guess it depends on what you are doing. I rarely use the trackpad at all. In fact, I'd say that 85-90% of the time I have my trackpad disabled. Whether I'm working or not I tend to get by with just the keyboard (tiling wm). I

A quick google led me to this ( https://github.com/svijee/taskwarrior-androidapp ). I did not develop it and, unfortunately have an iphone 4 for the next few months. It looks fairly promising though (looks like it is s

'task all' will display all of your tasks with the status (e.g. pending/active/completed). 'task reports' lists a number of all the premade reports that will give you some of the information you are looking for

Have you heard the good word about taskwarrior? I did not see any mention of this cli utility in this post. I have not tried doing, but use taskwarrior on a daily basis. It is fairly simple and allows for prioritizing tasks as well.

I think tiling would greatly improve the usability. If windows had tiling and something like dmenu I would be much happier. The start screen sucks, especially if you have a lot of applications that you commonly use. It's impractical

Trayer too (if you use it). I'll have to take a look when I get home to see how it all adds up.

There are many keyboard shortcuts available for gmail. You have to enable keyboard shortcuts in the settings though. See this link: http://gizmodo.com/5995218/a-cheat-sheet-of-every-single-gma... Or enable keyboard shortcuts in gmail and

There are many tasks at many jobs which require a PC (PC as in personal computer, which could be any OS as the author points out). The trade-off between a tablet device and a PC makes for a difference between ease of work, efficiency, and

I generally don't set up RAID on any of my machines because there really is no need. A quick google search though returns tons of stuff on the archwiki, which goes through preparation and installation/execution. This isn't only the case w

No. I actually went through the process of installing it on a netbook about two weeks ago. First time seeing it that way. Jumped onto archwiki and gave it a quick read. I can't remember how long it took me, but couldn't have been that l

A note about Arch: most WMs and DEs have support for packages that allow configuration through a GUI, although the installation is all text. Configuration through editing text can sometimes be faster when you really know your system. As t

Ditto. Like a few others here I prefer xmonad though, but there are certain things that I use Windows for and it is fairly disappointing to not have the wm functionality. As for the tyler wm video...I absolutely abhor quicktime. Never have

For some reason (there must be a limit on the number of subthread levels) there was no reply link under your last message so I'm replying to my own in the hopes that you're reading it. I'm sure there are quite a few wm/de threads on the arc

You may be right. I have only recently made the switch to wm, mostly because of the problems with gnome 3. Originally gnome was the only de that I liked, absolutely hated KDE for no real reason other than something about it bothered me.

I find my system quite usable. Most arch users attempt to solve their own problems before asking another. What do you expect to get out of your system? Maybe Arch just isn't tailored for your needs (but you could certainly configure it to

You will be missed. Absolutely correct on the wm comment. However, I am an organized, messy person and prefer stacking wm. Currently in favor of openbox, but it may be something else tomorrow.(Note: not archbang, but I am not entirely opp

That's the beautiful thing about arch. While figuring out configurations, tweaks, or problems for yourself may seem daunting Arch has fantastic documentation through the web on tons of issues, ranging from software- to hardware-specific.

I was just clarifying. Some benchmarks would be nice for comparison purpose though...another time, another thread. Maybe I'll take the time to set up a dev machine and do some testing myself.

I don't know if RHEL should be included. Although the list is of Linux distros, I was thinking that it should be geared toward home users. RHEL is great, but I wouldn't pay for the license (which is actually pretty cheap) when there are m

I have to agree with splatterdash. IMHO I've only started using Arch recently and the greatest part about it so far is the amount of things I've learned to manually do while setting up and configure my system. There are many things that I

I would say that there are strong parallels between programming and math as well as programming and grammar. Programming structures and syntax are just a form of 'grammar' for different languages. Learning these skills at a young age woul
