I used to like Mitch. I still do, but I used to, too.

Do you have ffmpeg installed?

 

No other details have been released yet, just that it was an "accident".

I think you need to set the execute bit on your service file.

sudo chmod +x

Caldera (probably around 1999).

Yes - I have been running IPFire on an old desktop for several years now and I really like it.

Call it bloom if you want, but it is really mold.

Been kinda fascinated by this case since watching a lot of Doug Demuro's videos from there (note that this stuff happened after Doug stopped reviewing their cars). Decided to check up and looks like Clayton is facing a long list of charges.

To stop the lightdm from starting, you should be able to disable it by this command:

sudo systemctl disable lightdm

If XFCE still starts automatically, then check your .bash_profile. If there is a line like:

exec startxfce4

then put a # in front of it. Once that is done, you can start XFCE any time by typing exec startxfce4 at the command line. When in XFCE, if you log out it should put you back to your command prompt.

I went to the Ontario Hydro calculator to look at switching from oil heating to electric (natural gas not available here). This calculator says that I can save about $400 per year by switching. I have much doubt about this. Has anyone actually done this switch? Do you believe this?

Edit: some more info I should have provided:

First of all, I believe this would be for a forced air electric furnace. This should easily swap in for my oil furnace, I would just have to add a 220 line.

I live in central Ontario. I don't have or need/want air conditioning, so there is nothing to save there.

I am not sure about a heat pump for my case, since it would not be used in the summer and they become less efficient as it gets colder. I am not sure I can rely on a heat pump as my only heating source.
