@OliverSalzburg lol. Cute, but not ONE answer? pfft. Not worth voting for, unless it was for site mascot. In which case i'd throw ash's santa hat into the ring.
Note, if she wins, next year, ash gets an account and stands for election. And bloody well will win.
Yeah the shell doesn't have something like an associative array, so I would need to switch to a more modern language, but then serialise the array and dump it to a file and load it each time. Seems like the trade-off wouldn't be worth it
Yeah @iglvzx and @soandos I need to leave the filenames and locations intact. I was considering symlinking processed ones into a different folder for comparison, but it didn't seem to offer any benefit over a file list in a text file
Extended file attributes is a file system feature that enables users to associate computer files with metadata not interpreted by the filesystem, whereas regular attributes have a purpose strictly defined by the filesystem (such as permissions or records of creation and modification times). Unlike forks, which can usually be as large as the maximum file size, extended attributes are usually limited in size to a value significantly smaller than the maximum file size. Typical uses can be storing the author of a document, the character encoding of a plain-text document, a checksum, cryptograp...
Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated permanently with
files and directories, similar to the environment strings associated
with a process. An attribute may be defined or undefined. If it is
defined, its value may be empty or non-empty.
Extended attributes are extensions to the normal attributes which are
associated with all inodes in the system (i.e. the stat(2) data). They
are often used to provide additional functionality to a filesystem -
for example, additional security features such as Access Control Lists
(ACLs) may be implemented using extended attributes.
Users with search access to a file or directory may retrieve a list of
attribute names defined for that file or directory.
Extended attributes are accessed as atomic objects. Reading retrieves
the whole value of an attribute and stores it in a buffer. Writing
replaces any previous value with…
@bob - no attr command - this server is a firewall management station, effectively an appliance, so you cannot install stuff. It is a BSD derivative I believe

I wonder how many of you are using trackball and which one do you think is the best for the hand. I am using logitech marble ( one with a big red ball in the middle ). Although other trackballs from kensington such as slimblade looks awesome, IMO they lack a support for palm
@Paul: Its almost like there's two countries (And no, its not an india pakistan joke). There's one part of it thats awesome, and one part of it thats just broken

One reason we have so much issues with 'bad' IT folk is that IT is a 'respectable' profession, so to speak, so we get a bunch of idiots who don't actually have any passion for it doing it.
IT is one of those professions where it looks like a good career option to anyone who has played a computer game or watched sci-fi. But you don't get to find out if you are any good at it until you take it for a spin. Passion comes from enjoying it, and you enjoying it if you can do it well.

Often once you are in a career, the option of switching because it isn't fun looks a lot worse than just sticking it out
It is the same for any profession I guess, but some have more impact than others
I have lately encountered several cases where a poster has awarded the bounty, but has not marked that answer as accepted (or any other answer).
This is the symmetric case to the grace period introduced some months ago, where an accepted answer gets automatically the bounty after both the bounty...
After 7 days, the top 30 nominees, ordered by reputation, advance to the primary phase. However, if there are 10 candidates or less, we skip directly to the election phase.
I was looking through some of the questions I've answered, and an unsettling amount have:
Not accepted an answer
Not given extra details to help people answer
In essence, these questions are now dead in the water. Would it be proper ettiquette to post a comment on the question reminding the O...
I can't share some hilarious comments posted on the ongoing Super User election page.
Please enable permalinks for comments on the election page. Thankyouverymuch.
@HackToHell: I'm grasping too high, which makes me only bump into negative comments and what not. It's not that I can't withstand and ignore them, but the lack of any positive feedback that's hurting. I don't want to be in a team where there's no support. Perhaps it's bad timing or who knows what, but I have to accept the position I'm in and will not nominate anymore in the future unless that's requested from me...
@SimonSheehan: Commented on the meta post wrt blog categories, it's not that I'm against them but I think that having to strictly maintain them week-to-week was burning us out in the past, I've mentioned some other reasoning there as well. Although one or two category days and perhaps a third that switches every month is still a good idea...
FWIW, @HackToHell, it's a good learning experience in the end.
I just opened my Windows Explorer and was greeted with this:
Which is confusing, since I'm missing 2 drives:
There's also another device that uses BitLocker. It's a USB key mounted as X:. It also doesn't show and it is currently in locked state.
After manually entering Z: into the address ...
@OliverSalzburg: I know there is a list in the registry where you can choose what drives to hide, but I think they would hide from the side bar as well.
A while ago, I asked this question for which no solution was found. I have since re-installed the host in question and gave it to a family member.
So now I will be unable to validate any answers given (if there might be new ones) and the problem was never solved either.
So, should I delete that ...
Although drives can have custom icons and all that, so hmm, still might be worth caching. But well, turning it off and on again seems to have fixed it...
If I do a retag using in-line tagging, then the last editor for the post doesn't get updated.
For instance:
Now, once I complete the retag, the editor name isn't updated.
Once I complete an edit using inline editing, I see that the in-line tag edit link is no longer visible.
Now it's happened several times that I see a fairly bad post, I immediately click on the inline edit & fix the body & update it, and then I go
and realize I haven't updated the t...
