So you have an ink cartridge and Brother decided that it was empty and you disagree and want to milk it further? One thing that might work for you is to reset the internal page counter. It’s fairly public understanding that printer companies have tech inside the machines that essentially tell it when it has printed enough and to print…

View Your Mind: How to turn Xlink on
First of all, thanks a million to the creators of View Your Mind mind mapping software. It’s a great piece of useful free license software! Everything was going very well while I was using it. I especially found useful the xlink (xlinks?) feature. This feature will allow you to connect a visual reference from one branch to any other branch…
Ubuntu: How to Decrease Desktop Icon Size 16.04
It’s quite funny how easy this was but how long it took me to figure this out so I just thought I’d throw this online in case anyone is as dumb as me. Hopefully it helps someone and if it does, don’t tell anyone. 😉 Within Nautilus (your file browser) click the 4 square icon thing (THIS) Then, slide…
Ubuntu 16.04 – How to Make Brightness Keys Work on System76 Lemur
Nice computer. Usually works awesome. Just this one little bug every time I re-install the OS or upgrade it seems. Easy to fix but I always forget how to do it so here it is for everyone else who might be having issue. Might also solve all your other Intel brightness button issues so give it a shot! This also…
How to Install Jitsi on Ubuntu 16.04
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 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.…
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…
