How to install the latest java version in Raspbian (Stretch)

Introduction

The default version of java provided in the latest raspbian images are outdated, so we are going to install from the ppa:webupd8team/java repository instead. Please note that add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java will not work, so we will need to add the repository manually.

Installation

  1. Create the gpg key file and paste the following lines of text below
nano key.txt

Blocking the new version of the NYTimes paywall

The NYTimes has updated their paywall-- it's slightly more sophisticated. The content is no longer hidden behind a big transparent div, but instead is now actually removed from the page entirely. It's still simple to defeat, though. Using adblock plus (or your preferred adblocking device), block the following URLs:

*://*.nytimes.com/*/gwy.js*
*://*.nytimes.com/*/gw.js*

And you're done.

Installing node and npm on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and 64-bit Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

  1. Navigate to http://nodejs.org/download/ and on the Linux Binaries (.tar.gz) row click to download the 64-bit version of the current latest release.

  2. Say you've downloaded node-v0.10.7-linux-x64.tar.gz into the Downloads directory. Then, open the terminal and type the following:

$ cd ~/Downloads
$ mkdir -p ~/local/node
$ tar xzf node-v0.10.7-linux-x64.tar.gz -C ~/local/node --strip-components=1
$ echo '# Node Enviroment Setup' >> ~/.bashrc
$ echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/node/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
