I purchased a small netbook from HP few years back and it was installed with Windows 10 Home Edition. I tried it at the shop and works fine until I arrived at home and installed office suites, and some basic programming  tools like Chrome, Python, Visual Studio Code that it became useless. Now it lags and my daughter can't even work with office suites. It was for her, it was a gift, it's suppose to work and not bother her. And now it becomes a pain for her doing research and Google Chrome always says "Not Responding". I just remembered it was 2 years ago. The netbook was just kept at the closet, intended never to see the light again. I was cleaning my small office at home and I found it, I remembered the pain. I remembered it all like yesterday. It was horrible, I cried and asked God, why did I remember all those miseries. Seriously, I just found it, that's it, and just thought, well I think I can have a use for it for a small server at home. Then it hits me, it...

Well, if you're into cooking, this is not it. It's a hidden service within Tor, or the onion router. Ever heard of facebookcorewwwi.onion ? This blog post is about this kind of onion. If you're also familiar with the silk road then you are on the right spot. Onion sites are well hidden inside Tor and it's difficult for anyone to track. A bit of an Intro Hosting your own domain can be a bit tricky. First off, you need money. Well, of course, you do. You need to sign up for a hosting company. GoDaddy is one good example. There are lots though and I don't need to put it here. It seems I'm advertising GoDaddy. I only got 2 accounts, GoDaddy and ASmallOrange , SmallOrange is crap, although a bit cheaper than GoDaddy. I have Vultur but I don't know how to get my custom domain so that doesn't count. Had PesoHosting but, will get your high blood pressure rolling just mentioning it here. After you get an account, and that's after you pay for like a few ...

Well, I was pondering of things today. I mean no things? Like nothing? Can't mine like shit, electricity is down almost every 2 hours so I was wondering to myself... How the hell the name "Bam-e" came to be? As a programmer I need to know the origin of it. Like learning new techniques in programming. I need to dissect things. First off, maybe it's a Tagalog term. I think so. And yeah I found it, or did I. I thought the story goes like this. Someone named Dave came to visit Bam. Here it goes... Dave: Hi, Bam ano yang ginawa mo? Bam: Nagluluto Dave: Yay, maganda yan! Masarap ba yan? Bam: Ah wala, hinalo ko lang ang mga natirang ingredients Dave: Ano name nyan? Bam: Hindi ako sure eh! Dave: Patingin nga? Bam: Sure Dave: Pancit lang naman yan Bam eh! Well, if you don't know tagalog. I'm sorry, I'm not the person to talk to. I'm Bisaya and I'm very bad at tutoring Filipino. The hell, I got 79% when I was in high school. I hate the God ...

This is just a document in case I forgot to restore data files to MSSQL. I had this problem before when a colleague gave me a .dat files to be restored to SQL server. I had a 2008 version of the server and had no trouble restoring it. The problem is, I forgot how I did it when I had a new PC and I upgraded it to 2012 SQL server. But this is a simple task (although I had a full day remembering how I did it and I had no luck finding the solution from google). First off, click restore, like so I had trouble with the database whether or not to add a new database and restore the file to it, or not. Simple answer is no need. With the next image you can see that the configuration is very simple. Just set it to device as the source and find the .mdf file. It automatically displays a suggestion for the database name and you're done. Click OK and wait a couple of minutes for SQL server to restore the data. [EDIT] In case you are restoring a backup file without an extension. You c...

Better late than never. I really planned to have a home-based web server so that I can explore a little bit of systems administration, just simply. I'm not really much of an administrator but it would be cool if I know a bit about this stuff. I had a little background with PHP and web development so I think I can handle it. Gladly it's not that difficult. With a little bit of installations and configuration, and we're done. First off, install XAMPP . Download the application from their website and install. Just accept the default options and we're good to go. I got a little info with XAMPP and Lithium for further exploration here . So accessing the host where you install the XAMPP will get you the web server's default page. In my case, it's localhost and it displays the XAMPP default page. Things are looking good. I'll give details on installation of XAMPP later in my other blog post. And now for the port forwarding bit. Port forwarding means you forwa...

I use this method to share some files with my friends across the internet that is too large for Dropbox to handle. I tried hosting SQL data that's around 3G in size so I wanted to try FTP approach. I installed XAMPP and it has useful stuffs for HTTP and FTP projects. I use it once with my PHP development, but that's it -- nothing FTP related. This is a tutorial on how to basically set-up FTP server locally to host data to be shared by friends, etc. Once XAMPP is installed, we can directly go to the Control Panel. Clicking the Admin for FileZilla FTP Server administration might alert you with Security Warning, just allow access to it. Click OK to Connect to Server. We are now presented with the FileZilla server Administration interface. Go to Edit->Users to add users. I usually just add temporary users who can access specific files to be shared periodically, that means I'll disable it once I'm done with the file share and also I don't usually leave FTP s...

Well, I like smaller fonts and I've tried Elementary OS Luna. I like it and I'm searching a way to make the default fonts smaller. Just so I have more spaces to work on, especially when I code and read. Luckily I found a solution to download the tweak and make the fonts/icons custom sizes in Elementary Luna. This is how I did it. Hope you guys find it useful. Run this in your terminal. sudo apt-add-repository ppa:versable/elementary-update sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install elementary-tweaks And if anyone is interested in my setting, here's my screenshot. You can find it in System Settings/Tweaks btw. Thanks everyone!

Just found this tutorial on trying out LAMP in ElementaryOS here. Might as well be blogged here so I can get back at it when trying it in the future.
