  1. Fusilli in spinach-veggies creamToday I'm going to tech you my specialty.Ingredients for 4 people, you can still adapt it for more people:one kilo of fusilli pasta;50 grams of spinach;two carrots;one small can of green beens;a bit of ginger;olive oil;one can of sour cream;one onion;one splinter of garlic;a cup of fresh full milk;salt and black pepper;Ok lets start, first lets clean and cut the veggies, cut the onion in small little squares ( not in wedges ), peal the carrot ( if is from a biological farm then do not peal it if you like it that way ) and cut it too into small cubes, wash and rinse the green beens, wash the spinaches and slice them small and thin.After that take a pan, and with slow fire spill a bit of olive oil on that pan, about two spoons, heat it up a bit but don't let it over heat, never fry food with olive oil, drop in the onion and cook it till they get a nice gold-yellow color, then drop the carrots and also add a half tea cup of water, continue cooking on slow fire and add slowly water till the carrots are a bit soft ( water should evaporate and soak the carrots while cooking ), you can also skip the water part if you like crispy carrots ( I like them soft ), once this is done drop in the green beens and the spinaches, mix them for a little, wait about 8-10 minutes while mixing then add the sour cream and cut the piece of garlic into slices and drop it in the pan with everything else, add the milk slowly to make the sour cream mix better, grate a bit of the ginger in the cream and put some salt and pepper as you like, remember to keep slow fire.Now its time to prepare the fusilli pasta, take a big pasta pan, put the water and make it boil on another fire, when the water is boiling drop a half fist of grain sea salt ( it is said that beside giving the taste it also keep water at 100 degrees stable for 15 minutes ) and then drop the fusilli, on the pack there should be written how long they should boil but usually is between 8 and 11 minutes.And here we go, when the pasta is ready, mix it with the sauce and is ready to be served! Add a bit of parmigiano ( parmesan ) cheese on it while serving if you like it.Buon appetito! Ciaoq9c9p
  2. Yeah, I love food and cooking a lot, but you know...I'm italian...I make pasta, pasta with sauce, pizza, pizza with pasta There is a tv commercial in italy about a notorious brand of wine sold into carton boxes ( tetra pack ), it states "the real italian flavors, pasta and bread....", that is not the only italian flavors...what a shame Just kidding, thanks, you just got me ideas for posting some of my recipes, get ready Ciao, q9c9p
  3. Well, I did not hear anything about "alien stuff" lately, and I'm also very skeptic about aliens...I have my own "theories" on that matter. The birds in sweeden and italy have been falling of the sky after new year...so how about that, and how comes that there is always close by a monsanto center or a monsanto field close by...really weird... By the way, Baniboy, whales are not fishes ehheheh and that's probably why they are committing suicide, I was reading some articles on the internet about if dolphins and whales should get same rights as humans because they show personality and sense of conscious, they can even figure them self into a mirror....I mean...I'm for rights to everyone but this goes a bit off chart... I'm loosing the topic so for I salute you all, I'll get back as soon as I have some more news and "investigation" done . Ciao q9c9p
  4. Yes, that is true, and actually there is a huge number of Live distributions, maybe I should have named the topic differently, something like "wanna try linux for web developing", my bad. Some live distro to be mentioned: damn small linux - dsl : very small, with most of software one should need and with a desktop;dynebolic 2 - db2 : also kind of small, made for multimedia;backtrack : made for security testing and penetration testing, for advanced administrators;systemrescuecd : as the name might suggest, a system that run from cd for rescuing broken systems and broken hard drives;FreeSBIE : for those who are into old school unix and know the difference between GPL and BSD; There are many many more, but I suppose this are the few that are worth mentioning, please correct me if I'm wrong. Actually I'm part of the crew who is making dynebolic version 3 and I'm the bug fixer of dynebolic version 2 that will be abandoned little wile after we will release db version 3. Lately because of lacking of time I have not been updating db version 2 but I count on getting back on track asap. Ciao, q9c9p
  5. Hello Baniboy, excuse me if I ask, what does not work? could you explain more in detail? Did you manage to edit the fstab file? Do sudo mount -a return some output? If yes, could you paste it here in the forum? Thanks a lot and I hope I can still help you. Ciao q9c9p
  6. Hello to all the people in the forum and apologies if this post might sound wrong...I've been in this Xisto since a day because I thought it was a good idea to earn a free hosting space, so i started opening couple of topic and to answer couple of questions and dialogs...but I see there is little activity and a lot of users...what is going on? can somebody enlighten me?I read a bit that before it was called Xisto...can somebody tell me a bit of the history of this place?thanks lot.Ciaoq9c9p
  7. Hello to all the people in the forum, aren't you annoyed by filling in registration forms every time a you find a nice web service you want to be part of? Wouldn't you like to have to use the same account you always had without filling gazillion forms? People who have facebook are used to this by using their facebook credential to log around websites, but for those who don't have a facebook? And here it comes: OpenID From their website ( hope is ok to quote a line from their website, I apologize in case I'm doing wrong ): Reference: http://openid.net/get-an-openid/individuals/ So...how to get started?! First visit this link to see if you already use any of this services: http://openid.net/get-an-openid/ and if you do then look into your account ( of those services ) to get your OpenID credential, otherwise if you want to roll a fresh new OpenID credential go to http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and follow the instructions to apply for a new OpenID, hopefully this will save you lots of time from now on for login into different services. Oh, but...my favorite new web service site does not implement OpenID, what should I do?!? Well just ask the owners or the technicians to add it as a feature, a lot of people will be happy to see it, and I suppose also denotes technological awareness for who is doing the service/site. http://openid.net/add-openid/ Add OpenID to your website. Hoping you all enjoyed this brief presentation of OpenID, and hoping it might be helpful to someone, I salute you. Ciao q9c9p
  8. Hello,if you want to run asp web applications on linux there is an apache module to do that called mod_mono, if you want to run .net application on a linux desktop then there is mono which is a set of libraries and utilities to run .net applications on linux and the apache mod_mono is part of it.Hope I helped you out.Ciao,q9c9p
  9. Hello to all people around the forums,did you hear the news that large numbers of animals are dying around the globe? In states, in sweeden, in italy and other countries too!I've been investigating a little and for a few places where this things are happening it seems to be a connection with Monsanto laboratories and chemical warfare laboratories.Some people say its the will of god trying to give a sign for people to "wake up". Sorry folks but I'm skeptic about that.What are your thoughts? Can it be something that have run out of hand? If so, shouldn't somebody say something? Is it really worth to keep such a secret even if the truth could lead to mass world panic?Ciao,q9c9p
  10. Hello, permit me to do a little introduction: many people talk about it, Linux! But what really is: Linux is the main program ( kernel ) that make the operating system start, even windows has a kernel! but it's named different, it's named Explorer ( also the browser is named like that but they are different things ). Then around this program ( the Linux Kernel ) we have a huge number of different operating systems based on it ( the Linux Kernel ), there is Ubuntu, Debian, RedHat, OpenSuse, Gentoo and a gazilion more and we call them distributions...is a bit like a car, the engine of a car is always more or less the same, but the machine around it can be different, it can be a chevy or a wolkswagen, but at basics the engine is more or less the same. Some people who are into website designing and internet services soon or late get interested on Linux because its server capabilities, some try to install it on their desktops in dual boot just to try firing up a LAMP ( Linux Apache Mysql Php ) and then find them selfs almost instantly missing drivers, sometimes is the graphics, sometimes is the wireless and loosing hours and will power just to get the internet working missing the real power of linux... For those who are into web developing there is a new distribution called TurnKey Linux, you don't need to abandon your windows or macos to use it, you can just use a virtualization program like vmware or virtualbox from your favorite operating system; TurnKey Linux comes as an appliance, just like the one in your kitchen, there is the LAMP with all the equipment to set up a full fledged website, there is the drupal appliance with a drupal already installed, there is even a torrent server appliance! Take a look over the appliances list: https://www.turnkeylinux.org/ And of course there is not just appliances for web developers, also for instant messaging, for fileservers, for revision control systems and more appliances are created every day! I hope TurnKey Linux can help you out "do more with less" and make you save some times while still learning new stuff. As soon I will make some tutorials about some of the appliances, I currently use the fileserver, the lamp and the drupal. Ciao, q9c9p
  11. Hello I'm new,I also heard this news...so sad, and yet yes very cruel. I'm really against death penalty but I believe this person should be sentenced for life imprisonment in isolation cell, he killed the baby because the ex did not want to stay with him...ok be alone for the rest of your life now.I also have a little baby ( almost 2 years now ) and me and his mama don't get along and stopped seeing each others since about a half a year now, but hell...I could never ever hurt my little one to make a wrong to her, that does completely make no sense at all!!!This guy might have been really really brain sick. I hope he gets life sentence in isolation.I hope his ex will forget the baby and get a new life, I know its impossible to do forget a little life coming from your own especially ( I think ) when you are the mother, but life goes on, and for sure if the baby would have been grown up would have wanted his/her mama to go on with life, life goes on, and for the sake of the little lost life she should go on and find somebody special to make a new life ( I think ).Ciao.q9c9p
  12. Hello Webdesigner, its such a pity that still drivers are trouble some on ubuntu, let me try to help you out but I tell you is gonna be a little long task. To start you should get on a wired network, so first you can connect a lan cable to your laptop, after that go to in the main menu and look for System->Administration->Update Manager ( my system is in italian so names might be translated wrong, I'll try to explain at best ), once the update manager is installed do Verify updates and in case do also the updates, once this operation is finished look in the left bottom corner of the update manager for something called Settings and click it, type in your password and a new window should open, there should be 5 tabs, Ubuntu Software, Other software, Updates, Authentication and Statistics. First check (click) Proprietary drivers for devices - restricted and Software with copyright restrictions and legal restrictions - multiverse, main universe restricted and multiverse should be all checked in, then go to the Other Software tab and check whatever is in there, it should be Canonical Software. Once you have done that you should be ready to go, click close and click Reload at the next window, just wait a bit while the software list is being refreshed and when the first window reappear ( the update manager window ) do all the upgrades. Once the upgrades are done go again in the main menu, go in System, Administration, Driver manager ( has an icon looking like a sound card or a peripheral internal card ) and look if the driver for your wireless card ( and graphic card ) are there, if yes then enable it by clicking the checkbox, it will do an automatic procedure to install and configure the driver, when finish restart the computer and redo this last procedure for the graphics drivers, if your wireless driver don't show then there is another procedure using a software called ndiswrapper which make use of the windows driver but you're gonna have to fire up a terminal, so lets keep it for later. Hope this helps you out, and I hope you won't have to use ndiswrapper after all. Keep in touch and let me know, ciao q9c9p
  13. Hello, I hope you did not had to reinstall your system, but in case you did not the open up a terminal ( I know, I'm sorry you have to do this, please don't compare it to the clicketiclick way of windows...) and do: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab and in there add at the end /dev/sdaX(where X is your partition number like sda3 or sda5) /windows vfat defaults,dmask=007,fmask=117,uid=user,gid=user 0 0and then do: gksudo mount -a or restart your computer. I'm sorry you had to use a terminal, I know there is a way to do it with nautilus or the partition manager but I don't have a fat partition that is not an external drive that I hotplug and I usually do most of everything with the terminal because for me personally is faster since I type very fast... Hope this helps you. Ciao q9c9p
  14. Hello everybody, I'm new . This thread would like to be a tutorial, but before making it into one I'd like to discuss it with more people. I'm a kind of paranoid person, I hate advertisement and website that run lots of javascript and whats not on my computer so I usually install in my firefox adblockplus, noscripts, flashblock. Adblockplus uses a remote list of ads providers that you have to subscribe when you install it ( I usually choose a French list provided since I live in EU ), once installed it will remove a lot of advertisement from you WorldWideWeb experience; NoScript can seem a little intrusive at first, practically it blocks every website to run any script on your machine, then it gives you a menu where you can white-list a domain or a website or permit temporarily anything on a single web page, usually the first couple of days after installation are a bit annoying because you need to create the white-list of the usual website you visit, but after a while it can save bandwidth and headaches especially if you are using windows...and for people who are paranoid about whats running on their computer this add-on give a lot of control and of clue about the Internet jungle; FlashBlock simply block any animated flash web application and give you a <play> button to play it in case you really want, usually after noscript there is not the need for flashblock, but personally I don't like youtube "autoplay once open" sort of things; I'd like to make a nice tutorial with links to the add-ons and screen-shots about the usage, anyone interested? is it a good idea for a tutorial-guide? where could I post it? in tutorials? in The Internet-Web browsers section ( here )? Thanks a lot, q9c9p
  15. Hello everyone,I was looking on the internet for a free hosting space where to put some of my works, demos and documentations and that could meet my requirements ( the usual lamp, custom scripts, ssl ), after testing a couple of them I found this place and I really think is an awesome idea to share knowledge in exchange of internet services.I'm a linux user ( or power user as someone would say ), I've been using linux for over 13 years now and I've been working in a hosting provider and for a non profit technology art group ( somebody would say artistic hackers or media artists, but I prefer the first term ), I'm also active in a couple of LUG's and hacklabs ( that are not the place where cyber criminal meets but are autonomous laboratories for volunteers who are interested in technologies, don't get the hacker term wrong ).I do audio and video streaming, I'm also into virtualization and tuning of linux servers...hope to be useful to others with my advices and I hope I get to understand how this "mycents" things works asap :)Cheers!q9c9p <-- thats my face after the normal day coffe dosage
