I tried to run Right click, but bash tells me "command not found"... Which deb package is it in?

Depends on what you mean... Could'nt really understand the question and I sense I'm not the only one.
Like this?
$ tar ztf pak1.tar.gz
content/
content/fubar.c
content/foo/
content/foo/bar.h
content/cowboy.neal
YES!
Or like this?
$ tar ztf pak2.tar.gz
cowboy.neal
foo/
foo/bar.h
fubar.c
NO!
$ tar ztf pak3.tar.gz
bar.h
cowboy.neal
fubar.c
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
This!
The Maemo/Meego/Jolla line of mobile operating systems was by far the best in so many ways. It was actually a fully-blown OS that allowed you to use it as any other GNU/Linux computer.
- Rooting was a non-issue, as long as you checked the box that you know what you're doing and taking responsibility for fscking up your device.
- Ideal for tinkerers, still a pretty straight-forward OS with an clean, easy GUI for non-techies.
- Privacy was a non-issue, as you didn't have to sign up for anything when starting to use it.
- Security was as much of an issue as on any internet-connected device, but you were free to configure your firewall with iptables and whatnot
- App availability could have been a non-issue, if only Nokia would've done the right thing...
The reason it failed? Nokia made it fail. Instead of doing the smart thing, Nokia intentionally held back Maemo, while desperatly delivering CPR to the Symbian line. The Nokia N800 could have been the world's first smart phone, but Nokia made it an "internet device" with telephony disabled. When the overdue death of Symbian finally ensued, it was too late for Nokia, as iOS and Android had conquered the market.
This is really a protectionism measure. Finland has no domestic coal production. What they're doing is blocking energy imports to protect their domestic energy sector, what there is of it. Not a bad idea, but that is the truth.
Yup, let's do this to protect our domestic (fill in the blank)-based energy production! We really need to use our vast, domestic supplies of (fill in the blank)!!!
Any idea for the blank?!
So, you are saying that the environment is better off if smaller nations go 100% coal?
(No, of course you ain't... I'm just being facetious.)
Population size doesn't mean jack shit unless you account for the total consumption: energy consumption per capita in Finland is 20 times that of DR Congo, or 13 Times Pakistan, or 12 times Ethiopia, or 8 times Nigeria, or 7 times Indonesia, or 4 times Mexico (or somewhat less than the US).
Yup, 5.5 million Finns consume energy more than 80 million Congolese. AND they will continue to do so, being a first-world nation, in a location that requires heating for 3/4 of the year and more saunas per capita than any other country in the world. Possibly more saunas period than any other country in the world.
Don't forget, the asteroid that killed off the dinosaurs essentially torched most of the plant life on earth dumping quantities of CO2 into the atmosphere + heat far greater than we could ever manage short of nuclear war. Yet the earth still recovered.
...ahem... And the dinosaurs recovered quite well, did they?
Their really cute. Does that count ?
Their really cute what? Come on! Don't keep us in suspense. WHAT DO THE CATS POSSESS THAT'S REALLY CUTE???!!!
Eutrophication actually being reported is being caused by fertilizer runoff, not additional rain. Early predictions of climate change forecast drought everywhere. Now we're worrying about excess rain. Are liberals incapable of reporting good news?
Where do you get the "drought everywhere"? Droughts, yes, but not everywhere. Droughts will be an increasing problem in areas that already suffer from them. Other areas are likely to see more clouds and more rain.
Just stick to the truth (avoiding straw men) and you'll understand that it really isn't a liberal/conservative issue, it's reality.
Finland is part of "rest of the world" too, you insensitive clod! (And a good place to see the Northern Lights, darkness permitting.)
Assange broke his promise and proves he can't be trusted.
BS! The US never took him up on that offer! If Obama decides to commute Manning's sentence unconditionally, Assange has no obligation to honour an agreement that was never reached.
Assange said (check his tweet!) he would "agree to extradition". To agree, you need another party who agrees with you. The US never agreed with Assange on this.
Great. Has the US asked for extradition? Is there a warrant for his arrest? I have not seen that.
Even more specifically, have Obama and Assange (or the US and Assange) agreed on a deal? Did Obama say "quid pro quo"? Did he state that he expects Assange to turn himself in after Manning being released?
No? Then please excuse Assange for not turning himself in for no particular reason except things happening to go his way. No deal was made. Hence, no deal was broken.
"it's been 40 years" and I need the money, so to get people to buy the book I am dragging out all my dirty laundry.
Yep, she was only paid a measly couple of millions for The Force Awakens and has just wrapped up the filming of Episode VIII, so she must be desparate for the money.
Given exactly the same problem exists in the UK, do you mind explaining how Ronald Reagan achieved that?
Ever heard of Mrs Margaret Thatcher, a.k.a. Ronnie's BFF? Different countries, different leaders but definitely same ideals and policies, only with l10n.
Who cares what the Splunk CEO has to say? Splunk is a tool that is supposed to make it easy to search and aggregate logs, but it sucks at searching and aggregating logs. It's so slow and clunky that most people at the office ignore it and use awk or vi.
You forgot: grep, sed, perl, crontab and bunch of other tools. I'm sorry, but you have no comprehension of scale. The normal *nix tools are good enough at what they do for individual files, but once your infrastructure grows beyond a handful of hosts, the management becomes a major pain in the ass. I guess you've never even contemplated having to solve the issues like "Something weird happened in one of 20 application servers some time last week when user X logged in."
Just because you don't like a certain technology and are ignorant about it doesn't mean that the technology sucks.
There is one element of socialism in here. Not all elements, though, so you Americans can start breathing again.
I'm actually all for the democratic control of companies. If nothing else, stupid voters/employees might end up learning that voting for incompetent or corrupt leaders will actually make you end up without a place to work.
