Yes, this is the hard way but seems to be the ‘only way’ right now at the time of this blog. Always first check to make sure it’s not simply sitting in the software center before beginning this tutorial. No, I can’t figure out why the packages aren’t in the Ubuntu software centre. All I did to make this tutorial…

How to Install Nextcloud Owncloud App on Ubuntu Phone
Before you begin: Always first check in the stock ubuntu software center to make sure that it’s not simply available there first. As of the date of this post it is not, but I expect it will be there very soon. Do not proceed with this tutorial if there is a one click app in the software center 🙂 1…
How to Sync a Calendar Between Owncloud/Nextcloud and Thunderbird Lightning
For some reason this is not that intuitive the first time and there don’t seem to be many/any specific tutorials out there. I kept getting a ‘modification fail’ error message or other errors. So, here you go: In Nextcloud/Owncloud 1. Log in to your browser-based owncloud/nextcloud page 2. Go to the top left and click the down arrow to access…
Great Bible Habit: Bible in a Year
I realized years ago that believers live in a very imperfect world. We are fish swimming upstream and there is nothing that the enemy of our soul would love more than to keep us weak and ignorant of God’s holy Word. I knew that I had to find some form of ‘structure’ around my daily Bible reading. I found that…
How to Get Korean (Hangul) Working on Ubuntu 16.04
EDITED October 31, 2016 This tutorial might also work on Ubuntu 14.04, I haven’t tried yet. I love Ubuntu and I love Hangul but I’m not going to deny it – it’s not hyper-easy to get it running on Ubuntu, not because it’s super hard but because there aren’t any helpful blog posts out there to walk someone through it.…
What does Biblegateway.com, Zondervan, NIV, Gay Sex and Satan have in common?
Question for you disciples of Jesus out there: What does Biblegateway.com, Zondervan, NIV, Gay Sex and Satan have in common? As a recent website author I found this week noted, “Everything.” After meeting Jesus and being born again, I was given an NIV Bible. For a few months I read it like any other Bible. Then someone introduced me to…
Working with PDFs in Ubuntu
Ubuntu is by far the best operating system in existence. One of the things that hasn’t been broadcast around much is how Ubuntu is also awesome for business. If you run a business (or work in one) you will know that PDF files are one of the most standard documents that you work with, or would like to work with. …
How to Easily Open a Terminal in Ubuntu
There are two ways: 1. FROM THE LAUNCHER ON THE LEFT On the left side of your Ubuntu machine you’ll see the vertical column of apps you can one-click open. Usually the terminal is here. It’s the black box thing with the right-pointing greater than symbol thing and underscore. Click it. It opens. 2. THROUGH THE DASH push your super…
Google’s Tentacles Stretch Further: Verify Your Identity
I had an old ‘smart phone’ lying around and I thought about reconnecting it for one single purpose for our business. It would not phone, it would not text, it would not even go to a website and search. It’s only job would be to take a photo, and upload the photo to our private cloud storage. Of course, I…
Tutorial: How to Make NextCloud/Owncloud Calendar Work on Iphone Ipod
Unlike my typical tutorial formats, this one will be a near copy/paste from an email I sent to a real person so that other real people can connect this to their real brain and emotions: Dear _____, I’m going to forewarn you that this email is dripping with anger/frustration so try to just plunder through it and even try to…
