Found it here --> https://gooribi.com/home/basic-linux-commands/

I've had this speaker for a couple of years and love it!  Ran into an update issue and thought I bricked my speaker.  I didn't know how to reset the speaker.  The below instructions revived my speaker.

1. Press and hold the Action (O) button.
2. While holding the Action button, press and hold the Bluetooth button for 12 seconds.
3. Try turning the speaker on by pressing the power button.

Now I'm considering the XL.

This is a neat list of command line Linux games.

• BSD Games Pack

So I just installed the new CERTBOT and it rocks.   Very similar to the previous client, but less bullshit.

My how time flies by.

Three months have passed since I created my ssl cert. I received and email this week stating my cert will be expiring soon and I should renew. I have to say it took me a whole minute to renew and this includes remoting into my server. My server setup is your typical vanilla LAMP....nothing crazy goin on, so I was able to use the following simple command:

letsencrypt-auto renew

Before I knew it, my server was kool and the gang! Let's Encrypt rocks!

I finally got around to restoring my piwigo picture site.  Click on the Pictures tab and you'll be redircted to the site.  Guest only get a small sample, but registered users get the whole shebang....well, not exactly, but more...

Remember the streaming characters from the Matrix movie?  Well you can now install an application on Linux that emulates it in the terminal. It's kinda neat

Install cmatrix and have fun!
