While the Trello app on Android is certainly useful, I find that it’s not always enough when it comes to actionable steps. I find that the widget is too limiting if you’re managing more than three or four boards. There’s also no time-tracking feature built in.

The going narrative since Congress ended its session is that repealing the FCC rules will allow Internet service providers to use all of your data – including your browsing and search history – as they see fit to sell it to the highest bidder.

What Is Hexadecimal Code? In computing, hexadecimal provides a more concise way to represent binary values. It uses a base 16 number system instead of binary’s base 2. Thanks to the larger number space, multiple binary digits can be expressed in a single hex digit. Each hexadecimal digit expresses four binary digits. If you remember your binary, you’ll know that half a byte has exactly 16 possible values – the same number of values a hex digit can have....
Debian offers unparalleled stability in comparison to most other Linux distributions, which is achieved by slower release cycles and deep and thorough testing of the system and all included packages as well. Debian offers over 30 000 packages from its official repositories and even more from the unofficial ones, but such stability comes at a price: Most packages are what many consider outdated, often lagging one or two minor (rarely major) versions behind what your would normally get from Ubuntu and its derivatives....

1. You Will Likely Need Root Access You may need to root your phone or tablet before getting started. This means you need to have access to the root level of your operating system, otherwise known as having administrator privileges. This is something you would generally achieve on a PC by merely entering the password of the user with primary control.
