@JohnMiliter What do you want to test?

There's a lot of bad stuff that ROs can do, but as this is a sandbox I'm not adverse to temporarily making people ROs. Under supervision (even if I trust them!), just in case.

Testing
I am putting **special
formatting into a multi-line** message.

Woo! I found a bug.

I wonder what happens if I break this.

What. That link won't click!

I wonder what the first ever post was...

All feedback welcome!

Oh. Disappointing.

This room is sandy.

How cold can sand get?

Q: How can I set the Software Center to install software for non-root users?

How can I set the Software Center to allow non-root users to install stuff from the Ubuntu repos without having to type in their password? I'm fully aware of the security implications, and I am willing to take the risk. Fedora 12 shipped with something like this. (By modifying the PolicyKit conf...

Q: How to set up a headless server?

I have a ubuntu development server at work. It is an old rack server that is located somewhere in the company's dungeon, where nobody ever goes. The only way it can work is as a so-called headless server (i.e. with no monitor/keyboard connected and only accepting network connections). Obviously,...

Q: How do I run a successful Ubuntu Hour?

I'm taking my be-stickered laptop to a coffee shop tonight for an Ubuntu Hour. I've let a bunch of local LUG people know about it. How can I ensure people come away from it feeling like the experience was valuable? Is there something you've done that was particularly successful? There is a wi...

Q: How do I go back to KDE splash / login after installing XFCE?

How do I (safely) purge XFCE and just have the Kubuntu splash / login screen, or am I stuck with ...

It look like it works, so long as you don't wrap around to the left (translated, mostly not golfed from the non-wrapping variety in the brainfuck Hello World answer): \/>>>\/\\/>\/\\/>\/\\>\>\\>[/\/>>>>[/\/\>>>[/\/\>>>>\\/>>\/\>>>/\//\//>\/]/\//>\‌‌/]/\//\/>>>]/\/\\\\./\/\\/>>\/\\/>\/\./\/\\./\/\./\/>\>>>>\>>>\./\/>\\/>>\/\[/\/\\/>\/‌\‌./\//\//\/]/\/

@HenryWHHackv2.0 I happened. :-p

I see.

I didn't actually expect it to freeze (although it freezing is consistent with observed behaviour) and I didn't think anybody would be upset.

@wizzwizz4 I know.

@HenryWHHackv2.0 I know you know.

I was covering for when the fun police police arrive.

(i.e. CMs)

Could I ask you guys to talk elsewhere? I am trying to test the sidebar which requires my test messages to be the most recent message in the room.

@WheatWizard We're done. Sorry about the noise.
