Some nice fonts in Fedora for coding
Here is link to fedoramagazine article on this:
And what the article does not mention is how to install these from terminal. You can use the following command to install them all
sudo dnf install levien-inconsolata-fonts.noarch \ adobe-source-code-pro-fonts.noarch mozilla-fira-fonts-common.noarch \ mozilla-fira-sans-fonts.noarch google-droid-sans-fonts.noarch \ google-droid-sans-mono-fonts.noarch nethack-bitmap-fonts.noarch \ nethack-bitmap-fonts-core.noarch
update for wordpress.com issue
I had issues with my mobile and reset it without taking back up of Google authenticator. Guess what, now I have no access to the worpress.com account to which my blog was linked. Tried everything and when nothing worked, had to create a new account in worespress.com…. Hopefully my subscribers will not have any issues with this change.
