  How to run GUI Linux apps from Bash in Windows 10
Posted by: baziroll - 04-12-2016 , 01:35 PM - Forum: General Computer Chat - No Replies

Linux apps running in Windows 10? What gives?! As if the arrival of Bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10 wasn't enough, people have been quick to investigate the capabilities and limitation of Microsoft's embracing of the Linux command line.

Some commenters on our how-to guide asked what the point is. How about being able to run Linux apps in Windows without having to resort to using a virtual machine? It can be done. Here's how.
As noted over on Windows Clan, all it takes is a couple of commands to get started. You'll have to begin by making sure you have Bash up and running, and then grab yourself a copy of X Server from SourceForge.
With this done, you can run Firefox, for instance, using the command:
DISPLAY=:0 firefox



Have a play around and see what you can come up with. You might find that performance is a little on the disappointing side, but it's very early days at the moment and this may well improve as Canonical and Microsoft refine things.
There's also an active thread over on Reddit where users are sharing tips and ideas -- well worth a look.

  How to run Bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10 Anniversary Update or Preview Build 14316
Posted by: baziroll - 04-12-2016 , 01:34 PM - Forum: General Computer Chat - No Replies

[Image: Windows-10-key-e1459357551216.jpg]
Microsoft has been showing Linux a lot of love recently, and at Build 2016 the company announced that the Bash shell was coming to Windows 10. It’s a feature that will make an appearance in the upcoming Windows 10 Anniversary Update (due for release in July), but it's something that Windows Insiders on the Fast Ring already have access to in Build 14316 right now.
If you have installed this build, you'd be forgiven for not being able to find Bash however hard you look; there are hoops you have to jump through. So if you like the idea of accessing the Linux command line in Windows 10, there are a few steps for you to follow, starting off by enabling Developer Mode.

As Microsoft explains: "You can now run Bash scripts, Linux command-line tools like sed, awk, grep, and you can even try Linux-first tools like Ruby, Git, Python, etc. directly on Windows. You can also access your Windows filesystem from within Bash allowing you to work on the same set of files using your preferred Windows tools or Linux command-line tools".
Here are those all-important Bash-enabling steps:

  • Open up Settings, click Update & security, and then head to the For developers section. Select the Developer mode option, click Yes to confirm, and then exit Settings.
  • Hit the Windows key (or the Start button), type Windows features, and click the Turn Windows Features on or off entry that appears.
  • Scroll down to the bottom of the list, check the box next to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (Beta) option, and click OK.
  • Wait for a moment while Bash is installed and then click Restart now to restart your computer and complete the process.
  • When Windows is back up and running, open a command prompt window, type bash and hit Enter.
  • You'll see a message that reads 'This will install Ubuntu on Windows, distributed by Canonical and licensed under its terms'. Press Y followed by Enter to download the software from the Windows Store and complete the installation.
In future, you can access Bash via the Bash on Ubuntu on Windows shortcut in the All Apps section of the Start menu.

  Space Marshals
Posted by: tarekma7 - 04-12-2016 , 11:02 AM - Forum: iPhone Giveaway of the Day - No Replies

[Image: 834315918_Screenshot_1460449427.jpg]

Space Marshals is a Sci-fi Wild West adventure taking place in outer space! This tactical top-down shooter puts you in the shoes of specialist Burton in his hunt for dangerous fugitives after a disastrous prison break.

TACTICAL COMBAT

Use the environment to your advantage. Avoid attacks by taking cover. Flank enemies for extra efficiency, but avoid getting flanked yourself! Use the tools of the trade to gain an edge - frag grenades, flash bangs, distractions, personal shields, proximity mines and more.

STEALTH

Choose your approach with care. Some say running into the fray guns blazing isn’t always the best option. Use distractions to single out opponents. Use disguises and covers to sneak past irrelevant guards. Use silenced weapons to covertly reduce the enemy numbers.

LOAD-OUTS & GEAR

Choosing your load-out is a big part of your tactics. In addition to body armor and grenades you can carry one two-handed and one single-handed weapon in each mission - and there’s something for everyone. Shotguns, handguns, assault rifles, sniper rifles, crossbows, energy weapons, throwing axes and more.

IMPORTANT: Please note that iPhone 4 is not supported.

• Tactical top-down shooter
• Episodic storyline in three chapters - ALL chapters out now!
• Gorgeous stylistic HD graphics rendered in Retina resolution (full Retina not supported on iPad 3)
• Optimized for iOS 8 and Metal graphics!
• Wide range of weapons and gear

• Multiple factions to fight with or against – or pitch against each other
• Dual stick controls with a set of different options
• MFi controller support (requires extended layout)
• iCloud save game support
• GameCenter achievements

  Windows 10 Not “Strong Motivation” to Buy New PCs
Posted by: scot - 04-12-2016 , 09:46 AM - Forum: General Computer Chat - No Replies

Windows 10 Not “Strong Motivation” to Buy New PCs
Gartner reveals new decline in PC sales in Q1 2016
Every time a new Windows version is released, it’s only natural to expect the PC market to experience a boom in sales, as more users around the world want to make the most of the new operating system with the best hardware.

But in the case of Windows 10, its launch has barely improved new PC sales, and new statistics provided by analyst firm Gartner reveal that the market continued its collapse in the first quarter of 2016.

Worldwide PC shipments totaled 64.8 million units during the period, which represents a decline of no less than 9.6 percent from Q1 2015, when Windows 10 was still in the works.

Windows 10, the free upgrade

According to Gartner, one of the mains reasons for the PC decline is the deterioration of local currencies against the US dollar, explaining that customers still don’t find enough reasons to purchase a new computer. Although they don’t say it specifically, it’s very clear that Windows 10 has failed to become a catalyst for growing PC sales since its launch.

“Vendors that had a strong consumer focus struggled to increase sell in shipments. There was no particular motivation for U.S. consumers to purchase PCs in the first quarter of 2016. There have been increased sales of two-in-one PCs, but not enough to offset the decline in desktop and traditional notebook sales,” Mikako Kitagawa, principal analyst at Gartner, said.

Without a doubt, one of the factors that make Windows 10 less of a motivation to buy a new PC is the free upgrade promo that Microsoft launched last year, when it introduced the new operating system.
Computers running Windows 7 and 8.1 can freely upgrade to Windows 10 by July 29, 2016, and with the new operating system having the same system requirements as its predecessors, it’s easy to understand why so many people have decided not to buy new hardware and stick with their existing version of Windows.
