Open file manager window from console

Some times you work in console, and need to open current path in file manager window. You can open any window and then navigate to location that is in your console path, or you can simply type xdg-open . & The "." means that you pass the current location to the command "xdg-open", and appending the "&" sign at the end will able you to detach xdg-open command from the console, so you still can contine to work on the console and keep the file manager window opened.

EsReVeRsE - The spring is over

Actually it is funny, that I added the vocal only after I finished the track and fine tuned all the effects. While playing my finished track I clicked on vocals from song Raquel-You are the one, and surprisingly the vocals sounded so good, that I added them. There are many tunes outside there using these vocals, because they come with the default package. *Update Removed the voice, because it sounded messy after all.

Security certificates

Well this has been annoying, so I will make a post as a reminder for myself. When connecting to mailserver with outlook through SSL you might get an error saying: The server you are connected to is using a security certificare that could not be verified. A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which is not trusted by the trust provider. Do you want to continue using this server? And then question, whether or not you want to install the certificate. And even if you install the certificate, nothing changes. Next time the same warning pops up. This might be caused by several reasons, but mine was simple. Just make sure, that your POP3 server name is *exactly* the same as the server name the certificate is issued to. If in your configuration you type in IP, it will not work, because Outlook will think, that this is different server. To install certificate on Outlook 2007 follow these steps

For example, if dream is about travelling then you could say - "I don't know why, but we went back home". If you ever told someone that you do not know about the details in your dream, then you have lied at least for one time in your life (:. This is because, we know exactly all the meanings, reasons and specific details in our dreams. The reason why we say - I don't know, can be various. Maybe the reason doesn't make much sense and when recalling your dream you suddenly feel confused and deny the reason. Like in the travelling dream example reason could be "We went home, because I needed to take a bath". Other reason might be because you feel ashamed for what you did in the dream and don't want to tell anybody. I think, many of us associate dreaming a dream with watching a movie. In movies there almos...
