> I'm always on the lookout for new tricks to use in any of the graphics programs I use. I saw this one on YouTube in a video by Logos By Nick. While you may have already learned this little maneuver, it was a bit new to me. It takes a bit of practice, at least for me.
> This method works well on a photo you want to trace. Maybe you are creating an advertisement and you have a photo of what you want, but you need clipart instead. You can always do a trace of the photo to use. We'll be using the Bezier tool.
> Open your photo in Inkscape. In the video I saw, he recommends that you turn off your page border. Make sure you bring in a bigger copy of your photo if possible (because images can be scaled smaller without quality loss, but not bigger). After you have it imported, add a layer to your project. You'll do your work on the new layer. In celebration of Linux's birthday this month, I'll use a photo of a penguin.
> Apache HTTP Server, commonly referred to as Apache, is a highly popular, open-source web server software that plays a significant role in the delivery of web content. Being flexible, Apache allows several key functionalities and configurations to help optimize its performance.
> To safely restart Apache on a production server, it’s recommended to use the apachectl or httpd tool (depending on your system), which offers a graceful restart command. This ensures that any current operations are completed before the service restarts. Verify Configuration Files Before restarting, ensure that your Apache configuration files are free from syntax errors.
> If you’re managing a web server, you’re likely to come across a situation where you need to apply some changes to your server configuration. Apache, a widely used web server software, provides a few ways to implement changes without interrupting the service. One of these ways is the “reload” function.
> The Docker Desktop has a number of cool features aimed at making container development more efficient and easier.
> Linux packages let you add new software or functionality to your system. After installing a package, there'd be a time when you might not want it anymore or would like to remove some dependencies or bloat from your Ubuntu system.
> Whatever the case, if you are looking for a way to get rid of an application, remove some extra packages, or clean up your machine, you can use one of these methods to do your bidding. Here are a few easy ways to remove packages on Ubuntu:
> If you use Linux, you likely use programs like top or htop to monitor your processes. A lot of these processes may not be relevant to you. What if there was a tool that only showed active processes? There is, and it's called atop.
> Here's how you can use atop to view currently active processes on Linux.
