Berlin has so many cool bars and restaurants to offer… I’m many times asked: what should we do? And no, I don’t want to write always the same stuff again, so I was thinking of making this list!

Vegan food First of all: www.berlin-vegan.de has nearly all vegan stuff covered.. Download the Android app or the iPhone app and you are fine.

If you can’t connect with your mysql-workbench to a database via ssh have a look at your logfile:

tail -f -n 100 ~/.mysql/workbench/log/wb.log

and you will see this error:

Maybe you know this:
you have a huge Java project, maybe the project itself is a sum of many (not even so small) Java projects.
For sharing the complete setting with other developers you normally use a Vagrant box to make it easy.
At work we needed 2 big projects in one Vagrant box, which included over 10 small maven projects.
Normally I would share it like this:

config.vm.synced_folder "my-project1", "/home/vagrant/my-project1"
config.vm.synced_folder "my-project2", "/home/vagrant/my-project2"

You can imagine, the normal start-time of our server with permanently syncing all folders, including all the target folders took much too long.
On a local machine, without a Vagrant box, it normally needs around 2 minutes to start
But with syncing all target folders, it needs between 7-10 minutes to start the server

I have the XIAOMI gamepad, a cheap gamepad which looks like the classical XBOX gamepad. When I used it first with my Fire TV Stick, it worked like a charm. I wanted to try it with my Linux and with Steam.

When i used it in a game it was totally uncalibrated. Pressing the joystick to the top position had no effect at all on my game character. So, i had to calibrate with a small programm, which I install on the shell with:

The easiest way to do it:

1. settings –> system –> Developer Option
2. ADB-Debuggin ON
3. Apps from unknown sources ON

After that, download the actual adb Link

You can now push with one klick: Kodi, FireLauncher and the addons you need for Kodi

When i tried to deploy a Hello World app from my Linux notebook to my THL 5000 notebook i got this result:

So, my phone has API level 1, nice - NOT!

Searching my ass off, I could nowhere find the device id for this phone… So Tobi told me: Brute-Force is the way to go and what should I say: it worked!

Because I was living in 2011 for 3 month in my favourite city Barcelona, I am asked so many times for Barcelona Tips…
So here we go:

Concerts

• Always have a look at THIS FORUM, it’s in catalan, but you can get the informations out of the postings and use your favorite translate website, it will help you too! Best online information for squat shows (but let me tell you: they start really really late… )
• Estraperlo Club del Ritme, Club in Badalona (so it’s little bit outside of BCN) where you can watch many cool Bands (I saw Dickies, Dwarves and many more there), Isidre Nonell 9, Badalona, (Metro: L2 Badalona Pompeu Fabra, and walking, there is also some Bus stops, have a look online for more information) P.S. Badalona has a perfect beach - so go there during the day, swim drink some beer and get than to the concert
• Sala Razzmatazz, Big concert location, Pamplona 88, 1er piso, 08018, Barcelona, (Metro: L1 Marina or L4 Bogatell)

Bars

Sometimes you need to know, which Linux distro you are running, and especially, which version:

lsb_release -a

The answer will look like:

No LSB modules are available
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty

your hd is full, make space in /boot aaaa make a

cd /boot ls -la
so you see the `/boot` folder

now delete the stuff you don’t need anymore:

sudo aptitude remove linux-image-3.13.0-49-generic
sudo apt-get remove ...

(ls -la after deleting the linux kernel image)
