Log notes from my MTP android ubuntu learning day
Before you read this. Big disclaimer. This post is written in super crappy style and is nothing more than my personal notes as I tried to figure out MTP.

GOOD BUSINESS COMMUNICATIONS IN OUR FRACTURED AGE
Proper communication is paramount. In the same way that handing someone a cheap, faded, crappy business card paints the wrong picture about your company and brand, a poorly communciated message does the same about yourself as a person.

How to set up Gitlab with Ubuntu Touch 2FA Manager App

Installing Prestashop on Digital Ocean Ubuntu Server
Setting up Prestashop on an ubuntu server is doable and Digital Ocean makes it pretty painless. The background to this post is that I had a sudden need to ‘figure out shopping carts’.
