I'm a reheater too. Kind of a waste I guess, as the microwave oven can do a lot more than reheating.

Windows 10 comes with Linux built-in. I use Windows 7 and 8.1 and can't upgrade to 10, so I was dead jealous. Jealous, but also an inveterate googler! So I turned to my favourite mainstream search...

Have the kindly elves at Ubuntu come up yet with a way so I can make my HP 15-g261sa laptop into a Windows 8.1/Ubuntu dual-boot? I have seen various cunning ways to make other UEFI computers become...
I have used Ubuntu for a long long time. But now I am stuck with a HP laptop that won't let me install Ubuntu. So for the foreseeable future I am a Windows user.
Can anyone suggest a good...
I bought a HP laptop with Windows 8.1... and it had the awful UEFI on it, and I can't dual-install it with Ubuntu. Result: spending time getting rid of viruses and malware.
If I bought an older,...

Unfortunately
dpkg --get-selections
didn't come up with truecrypt (which is the test package for this experiment, even though I don't plan to install it on my new LTS when I get round to...
