For some people it's difficult to find how to make the menu (navigation) with uppercase or lowercase letters.

But it's easy to do it with a simple code line in the CSS code, by just going to: Appearance --> Customize and then on Additional CSS write the following.

For uppercase letters on navigation menu:

.main-navigation a { text-transform: uppercase; }

For lowercase letters on navigation menu:

.main-navigation a { text-transform: lowercase; }

For normal on navigation menu (That it will make it to be normal as it has been written):

.main-navigation a { text-transform: none; }

Just go to Appearance --> Customize and then on Additional CSS write the following:

footer#colophon {
display: none;
}

Did you miss the shortcuts we had in files folder on ubuntu dock when we had unity?

Thanks to Manos Sarris from the greek community of ubuntu on facebook, which he found, how to do it again on ubuntu 20.04 or older versions.

It's easy and i write below the steps as i have already do it and it's working perfect.

1. We copy the file "org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop" from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications
   
   
2. We open it with Gedit and we change the line to: "DBusActivatable=false", which it was "true".
   
   
3. Under "X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=nautilus" we add the following 2 lines: 
   
   "StartupWMClass=nautilus;Nautilus
   Actions=new-window;open-documents;open-downloads;open-pictures;open-music;open-videos;"
   
   
4. In the end of the file we add the following:
   
   [Desktop Action open-documents]
   Name=Documents
   Exec=nautilus /home/username/Documents
   [Desktop Action open-downloads]
   Name=Downloads
   Exec=nautilus /home/username/Downloads
   [Desktop Action open-pictures]
   Name=Pictures
   Exec=nautilus /home/username/Pictures
   [Desktop Action open-music]
   Name=Music
   Exec=nautilus /home/username/Music
   [Desktop Action open-videos]
   Name=Videos
   Exec=nautilus /home/username/Videos
   
   Where it is "username" you change it with the username you have on your computer.
   
   
5. Logout and Login and it will be working.

Really one of the best screen protectors for my phone is ESR Screen Protector for the Huawei P30 Pro. It's super adhesive, really easy to install it by yourself and of course the price for 2 screen protectors for this price is just extremely good. 

It was pain-ass to install Page Edit on Ubuntu and no-one helped, so i make this tutorial for people to do it by themselves without the arrogance of the developers.

First of all we start with the instructions from https://github.com/Sigil-Ebook/PageEdit.

We open the terminal and we write:

• git clone https://github.com/sigil-ebook/PageEdit.git
• cd PageEdit
• sudo apt-get install build-essential
• sudo apt-get install cmake
• sudo apt-get install qtwebengine5-dev qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../<path/to/PageEdit/source> (This is where it fails, but don't close the terminal we will need it later)

So we continue to install CMake from Ubuntu Software.
When it's installed (see the image below):

• we open the GUI program from our apps.
• We press the button "Browse Source" and we go and select "PageEdit" folder. (Here "kailor" is my laptop username, it will show yours. Don't get confused)
• Then we go and press the button "Browse Build" and we go inside the folder "PageEdit" and we select the folder "build". (if the folder is missing, then you didn't create it with the terminal command "mkdir build", as it was on the previous steps).
• Now we press the button "Configure", which will show us all those red lines with data,
• and for last step in the CMake GUI program we press the button "Generate".

Now we return to terminal (i hope you didn't closed it), otherwise you need to get inside the folder you were "/PageEdit/build") and we type:

• make

Now it remains to put it as a preferred alternative external xhtml editor on Sigil. To do it this just follow these steps:

• We open Sigil,
• We go on "Edit --> Preferences"
• On the "General Settings", it's the last field (as the image below)

When you have linux there are some times you must find a way to do some things differently.

That time is one of those. Nikon firmwares are coming in exe files (windows) or mac files. But not linux.

But that doesn't mean you can't upgrade your firmware in your camera.

You need to do the following steps:

1. Download your firmware from the official link: https://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/index.html.
   
2. Download the Windows Firmware.
3. Copy the file to a new folder.
   
4. Open the terminal.
   
5. Go to the folder you put the folder (i.e. cd Desktop, cd Firmware).
6. Unpack the file with unrar e file.exe ( change "file" to what is the name of your filename of the firmware).
7. Format your SD card as per Nikon instructions within your camera.
   
8. Take out the sd card and put it into your PC.
9. Copy the two files that have been extracted (firmware.bin and gpsfirm.bin) to your sd card.
   
10. Then open your camera (with your sd card) and go to menu --> settings --> firmware.
    
11. And you will see the message to upgrade your firmware.
12. Don't close your camera until the upgrade is finished.
13. That's it how you do it from ubuntu.

Δεν υπάρχει τίποτα πιο ηλίθιο από την απόφαση της ΕΔΠΠΙ για μπλοκάρισμα 38 σελίδων για να βλέπει κάποιος ταινίες online ή να τις κατεβάζει στον υπολογιστή του... 

Και είναι ηλίθια απόφαση γιατί πολύ απλά είναι μια σταγόνα στον ωκεανό με τις ιστοσελίδες που υπάρχουν στο διαδίκτυο.

Παρ' όλα αυτά δεν υπάρχει λόγος κάποιος να θυμώσει ή να νευριάσει. Απλώς γράφουμε την απόφαση τους στα αρχ**ια μας.

Να σημειώσω εδώ πως προσωπικά δεν με νοιάζει αυτή η απόφαση πολύ διότι βλέπω μόνο streaming ταινίες και σειρές καθημερινά και έχω πάρα πολλές ιστοσελίδες που δεν έχουν μπλοκάρει... Απλώς γράφω αυτό το πόστ γιατί το θεωρώ άδικο για όλους τους φαν να βλέπουν ταινίες και σειρές online και δωρεάν.

Υπάρχουν 2 εύκολοι τρόποι για να αποκτήσετε άμεσα πρόσβαση στις αγαπημένες σας σελίδες:

1. Αλλάζουμε το dns με της google ή της cloudflare.
2. Βάζουμε κάποιο δωρεάν (ή με πληρωμή) VPN, όπως π.χ. Hotspot Shield VPN ή Touch VPN.

Και δώρο άλλες ιστοσελίδες που μπορείτε να δείτε ταινίες online:

• tvbox.ag/
• cine.to/
• yesmovies.to/
• watchenga.tv/en/

I am living in Greece, that means technologically we can't get all the features immediately but some months (or even years) later.

Also we have laws about privacy (some are from EU) which means some features we might never get it, like face recognition on Google Photos app (in Moments app - from Facebook we have face recognition).

But because i am taking many photos, it matters to me to have face recognition, so that trick below shows you how to activate the face recognition and it doesn't matter in which country you are (Greece, UK, Germany, etc).

1. Install TunnelBear VPN to your smartphone (it can work with every VPN app).
2. Create an account on VPN (It's free) and connect to USA.
3. Open Google Photos App to your smartphone and go to settings.
4. Then go to "Group Similar Faces" and enable the options it has inside.
5. Disconnect from VPN and remove it if you wish.
6. In Albums you will see the "People" album, which it might take few days to put the faces of your friends and people you took photo.

That's how it's working.

I inspired to write this blog post, because i have done it in my smartphone, and because of the following video.

That are the main reasons why i prefer Google Assistant rather than Amazon Alexa.

1. In my Country (Greece) both are not full supported and not working in my native language.
   
2. I am trying to be minimalist and synchronize all my data to google (gmail, google calendar, google photos, contacts, etc), that means when i am asking something google assistant it works better (knows who is my father, knows the birthday of my sister, can show me my photos of a place where i have gone - and that matters because i travel a lot and have thousands of photos, etc).
   
3. It has obviously more knowledge because it is using google search and can answer almost everything.
   
4. I find it more better as an assistant who knows everything, can answer almost everything, and can do a lot of things by itself rather than add skills (in Alexa).
   
5. Because i don't listen music (yes there are people who don't listen any music), i don't care about the music capabilities that can do each item of these two.

And since Google Assistant is new compared to Amazon Alexa, the following years will show us which is better and which can become even better and quicker.

But for now i vote for Google assistant. Because in few weeks already have gave me more free time, because it is answering quicker than to search things, or add events / reminders, or do things and routines, and many more things that have done easier my life.

Lately i have started to upload more often photos on my account on instagram. But because i have dslr and underwater compact camera, it was annoying to have to move on my smartphone or on google photos and later to download them on my smartphone so i can be able to upload them on instagram, since instagram doesn't have native app for ubuntu.

I tried many ways to do it directly from my computer, but only 2 ways had success.

The first was from google chrome to press right click on my mouse and select "inspect" and then press the small button on top-left which says "Toggle device toolbar" and choose from the console tab "Android Browser" so it can transform it into a mobile browser.

And the second it is the Ramme app from Github. It has an issue with javascript, and it shows a message but still it works perfect like to be inside the original instagram app on my phone. You can see the screenshot, where the last 2 photos have been uploaded with Ramme app on my ubuntu laptop.

And now finally i can upload easy all my photos directly from my computer.
