Q: When to use [printer] vs [printing]?

1:48 AM

Heh, look, I am hacking your non-autocomplete user credentials form:

A: How to remember user name and password on website that prevent browsers from doing so

PaulYou haven't stated which browser you are using, but this is achievable using greasemonkey user scripts, which are available for a number of browsers. Preventing the autocompletion of fields and saving passwords is achieved using the autocomplete="no" attribute on form elements. This greasemonk...

5:57 AM
@JourneymanGeek wonder what attracts the spammers, esp with the low hit rates on Stack Exchange sites

Q: How do I securely store and manage 180 passwords?

SammyI have about 180 passwords for different websites and web services. They are all stored in one single password protected Excel document. As the list gets longer I am more and more concerned about its security. Just how secure, or should I say insecure, is a password protected Excel document? Wha...

my head will be called for.
prepares for battle
 
protect, close, lock and delete
 
Bob
6:58 AM
lol @Sathya on an editing spree
 
@Bob na, that's just regular me
 
8:02 AM
@Sathya: high google rank. Pity they don't realise we use norefs
 
ah, dumb spammers.
 
Needs to pop by the office to sort out some mess that totally isn't...
my fault
hm, why am i getting e mail for direct software marketing o0
 
@slhck you got an exotic name :P
 
"From now until 30 June 2012, get a Cold Storage Voucher worth SGD100 * when you purchase enterprise-level backup and recovery for your business. " "*Offer is only valid with minimum purchase of USD 2,500 of PRODUCT X"
Who do these people think i am?
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek norefs?
 
8:09 AM
@Bob links are not followed by default. (= no page rank boost)
 
no reference, basically means search engines should in theory ignore these links
 
Bob
Ah.
How is that implemented anyway?
Oh, rel="nofollow". I see.
 
yes ;p
 
Bob
lol

Slurp sucks.
It is not optimized at all.
 
hm
superuser.com/questions/291677/… this needs retagging or nuking >_>
 
@jokerdino What? My real name or online handle? :P
 
up to you to decide :P
 
Go blame my parents, lol
 
8:33 AM
heh, nothing wrong in having an exotic name :P
 
if he has siblings, would they be the (thing that sounds like a certain big studio of siblings)?
 
s/e/a, then yes :P
 
;p
sadly the mention of that has caused the animaniac theme song to be stuck in my head
 
Bob
9:25 AM
What the...
 
9:36 AM
@bob: XD.
 
OCZ 240GB Agility 3 SSD for £139.99...tempted. So very tempted.
 
do it
doooittt ;p
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek @tombull89 Journeyman Geek is like a devil sitting on your shoulder :P
 
I'd probably get a caddy for the SSD and put it in place of my DVD drive in my laptop...or should I keep it for my new desktop build.
 
@tombull89: the latter would be more worth it most likely
you'd want a sata3 interface for that methinks
 
Bob
9:48 AM
@JourneymanGeek That's [\[citation needed\]](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed) :P
Hm.. that doesn't seem to work here.
 
I prefer this
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek I need to make one of those...
 
@JourneymanGeek I would find it incredibly funny if that happens in one of the many political rallies in India.
 
@jokerdino: India needs a pirate party now
*WHY VOTE FOR LESSER CROOKS?*
 
Bob
10:01 AM
When you have party names like this... (may be NSFW)
 
O_O
not that party. we are talking about political parties.
 
lol. That is a political party
 
Bob
That is a political party -_-
 
I didn't click the link. Just did. O_O What a party?!
 
Bob
10:05 AM
They should adopt the slogan: not to be taken seriously
 
Oh yeah...
this is why india needs a pirate party (more seriously)
 
@JourneymanGeek THE HECK IS THIS??!!!
 
Bob
Wait, WHAT
data.. goes.. into... battery?!?!
...what?
Again, may be mildly NSFW (it's a legitimate political party!)
 
Hmm any more weird videos for the day?
 
10:21 AM
@jokerdino: its entirely @Sathya 's fault. He linked this to me ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek It is? Which video? (YT blocked here)
 
@Sathya: the one with that Indian politician talking shite about how they seed clouds and information rains down ;p
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek The English translation makes no sense about halfway in :\
 
lol
I don't think it makes sense in the original hindi either
 
@JourneymanGeek ah lololol
 
10:27 AM
kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/faith/… this is another interesting rumour
 
just came out of my weekly meeting.
on an app I've developed
passed test cases: 109
failed test cases: 69
number of bugs that have been 'detected': ~10
no of bugs that were rejected because the tester didn't know jack shit of what he was doing: 8
so 2 bugs are responsible for 69(!? ) testcase failures?
the heck are they smoking I wonder
 
@JourneymanGeek and no thanks to you for linking that video to me.
 
@Sathya just the usual weed I suppose.
 
10:49 AM
@JourneymanGeek lol
couldn't help editing..

Q: If the moderator workload is so high, then why are there only 3 new moderator positions available?

user147272If the moderator workload is so high, then why is there only 3 new moderator positions available? As per http://stackoverflow.com/election?cb=1 Why not 5, 10 or 20? There are a lot of people with significant rep and dedication to SO, so why not allow for more than 3 new moderators? Ref: There&...

 
lol @ okayface
i don't think that was necessary but we can't really help it :(
 
that was in jest :)
 
i mean, listing the candidates thing wasn't necessary
 
ah well, OP's choice. Everyone has an opinion.

Q: Can not install ubuntu 12.04 in virtual box

RiennaI tried to install ubuntu 12.04 in virtual box, but it doesn't work. I use virtual box ver 4.0.4. Maybe anyone know why??

yes, because we can magically see through to your screen there.
 
lol
man, i like how it was swiftly closed.
 
10:57 AM
lol
 
1 hour is too slow :P
 
instead of editing and editing and hoping the OP comes back in a month or so.. :/
 
my record is 90 seconds. I think random has the record of 20 seconds
 
This really made my morning :P
 
10:57 AM
I'm fairly sure there was a 4-minuter before.
 
@OliverSalzburg lolwut
@tombull89 on hey no more boo-facebook-avatar (aka thumbs-down)
 
@Sathya well...almost. it's in the middle.
 
oh, its BOFH week ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek I ought to photoshop that cheery face of mine into a neck beard :P
 
lol
My ava has a everywhere beard
 
Bob
11:00 AM
@OliverSalzburg Screenshot for us without 10k? :P
 
@JourneymanGeek LOL
 
some people are just too touchy, even on a single -1
 
Bob
o.O
 
Instead of clarifying his question, he just tells me that I didn't understand it and I should take English lessons?
Not a fan of that reaction :P
 
Bob
11:08 AM
@Sathya I guess it's more the principle of the thing. Of course, assuming it's explained, steps should be taken to fix the problems, not attack the downvoter :\
@OliverSalzburg I dis like how he assumes you were the downvoter because you commented :P
 
@Bob: Too many people do that
 
@Bob Well, he was right :P
 
I really much rather comment than downvote (unless you either post a harmful answer, or annoy me)
 
Bob
I personally like this one: superuser.com/questions/416212/…
 
@Bob what @JourneymanGeek said
also, wut.

Q: help bonding streaming rtp 3g

enriquefirst sorry for contact me here. Recuro to you after reading all the material I found about it and so it does not get set. My question is: I can configure load balancing in any way out? I have a hub with 3 USB 3G modems, I got the 3 simultaneously connect with an upload speed of about 500kb in ea...

@jokerdino get to work ^^^
 
Bob
11:10 AM
The guy I suspect downvoted me left no reason, changed the question such that my answer became incorrect and answered the changed question :P
 
Man, what to do about this one. The answer refers to a comment which refers to a link only, and the link contains a truckload of info I can't distill down because I don't know the subject matter:
0
A: How to Import CA cert to pkcs12

Hamed JMLThe answer is what Eli Rosencruft Said above.

 
@Paul there was an auto flag on ^^ I just left as it is :|
Also, sneak peak of a new /review tab: superuser.com/review/broken-links
 
ugh
that page won't load for me
ugh
 
Good lord. Over 6000 broken links!
 
Bob
11:13 AM
@Sathya Nice!
That first link looks familiar...
 
http://192.168.1.1/ appears in 25 posts well no shi-.
2
 
@Paul it's not done - that's why I said sneak peak
 
@Sathya,what does the auto flag do?
 
it lists working links as not working
 
Bob
@Sathya Does suggest corrected link work?
 
11:14 AM
@Sathya yeah I just noticed that...
 
@Bob nope. check it ;P
 
Bob
:P
 
@Paul: least it isn't over 9000
 
Bob
So, should I manually edit all 25 of the Unlocker one or wait until it's implemented? :\
 
@JourneymanGeek badum-tish
@Bob no, no don't do anything for now
unless it's really down :P
 
Bob
11:15 AM
It is.
 
@Sathya: I will like this if it works ;p as might @gareth
 
Bob
The developer moved to a new site.
 
@Sathya how many of the answers have the "/how-to-answer page shown and skipped"? I guess it's quite a high %.
 
haha
 
@Sathya Ooops, yeah I know that the auto flag gets applied, does that mean if we concur it is bad, we leave it and a mod clears it up?
 
11:15 AM
@tombull89 I think I deal with atleast 10 such auto flags daily.
 
ugh, steadystate
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO KILL IT MS. AND NOT REPLACE IT.
 
@Paul if it's bad, you can flag it accordingly.. or see if you can edit it
 
Bob
@Sathya So should I edit them or not? :P
It is down.
 
Thats where I started, I can't edit it into sense as is...
 
@Bob if they are done, correct them
@Paul NUKE 'EM AWAY!~!~!~!~
 
Bob
11:20 AM
O.O
Considering the new site is a character longer, that must be a new restriction in the last three years.
 
hi all
@Bob when they did this?
 
@Bob it's been there since quite some time
 
Bob
Annnd HTML comments don't bypass it. Great, I'll have to add something :P
 
@Bob search for a screenshot & add it. bam.
 
Bob
@Sathya Same problem. Apparently it counts the characters in the posted text, which doesn't include images or other Markdown :\
 
11:31 AM
@Bob add "here's a pic of the software:"
 
Bob
@Sathya Nah, I actually added something useful :P
 
lol, good :P
 
Bob
This guy's smiley gets it past the character limit: superuser.com/a/51614/117590
:P

A: Extract software from multiple archives with WinRAR

avirkHere I m going to show you through the screen shot's given below that how to extract multiple archive rar file into one. Just right click on any archive and select the option Extract here. But before this keep all files in a folder to extract them at a place and the extraction will start and ...

Why this downvoted can anyone explain?
 
you willl need to ask the downvoter i suppose
 
11:37 AM
@avirk maybe because it doesn't answer.. maybe because that's a pirated software you're showcasing...
 
@sathya pirated software I got that game from my friennd.......And it was doing the same as OP asked...
 
@avirk no justification for promoting piracy
 
Ahhhh! One more downvote
 
@Sathya NOOOOO
 
11:39 AM
ran out of votes early today.
 
lol
@Sathya: today's been quiet. I've only been pissed off by real life people ;p
 
But its just for a pirated software...........However my answer was correct.
 
@JourneymanGeek btw you missed putting code formatting on this ;p superuser.com/a/435173/4377
@avirk like @JourneymanGeek said, you'll have to ask the downvoter.
also, wut..
 
Hahahaha
 
@Sathya: signoffs annoy me enough to tell people to get off my lawn not notice that
 
11:42 AM
@JourneymanGeek lol
 
@avirk You're getting downvoted for the content, even if the answer is technically correct.
 
@avirk: maybe censor out the name of the software? ;p
(or edit it to THISISALINUXLIVECD)
 
@tombull89 then I should delete it.......;P
 
and get a peer pressure badge ;p
 
@avirk Yes. Or use a different picture.
 
11:44 AM
ugh, bon gart is annoyed cause of a downvote.
 
Is he here? @JourneymanGeek
 
and get a peer pressure badge ;p
naw
 
Dleted that..................;D
 
But he's one of those users who might either end up being quite good, or ragequit
(we've had a few... )
 
> Every day, one of the elite around here reminds me that if you don't kiss ass, you get a sharp stick in the eye. I'm not equating "play nice" with "kiss ass" either. But hey... I've already determined that the voting system around here is flawed, since most of the votes are handed out by the few people who frequent the site the most... namely those with the most points... namely the elite. You know... the ones who hang out together in the chat room? There are a few there.
that's just lovely is it
 
11:46 AM
Who are those few can you mention anyone?
 
it's my fault now that I vote so much and others don't?
 
@slhck: @jokerdino was complaining i don't vote enough ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek He's gonna end up like KCotreau
Just a matter of time
 
@avirk: matt jenkins, KCotreau...
 
@jou I totally was. You are a voting blackhole!!@#!@
 
11:47 AM
(one of whom was awesome. The other was just gaming the system)
@jokerdino: I need to vote more ;p
I get sucked into answering, commenting and editing
 
Yes that.
 
Yes I know KCotreau and not seen him from long time.
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek According to a previous version of his profile, he did ragequit at a point :P
 
Bob
Wait, slhck posted it anyway
 
11:48 AM
heck, I am a SU elite!!
 
XD
meh. I WANT MY POKING STICK
 
Oh dude. Stop being so blatant.
 
@jokerdino: I spend enough time on this site that i own the chatroom ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek lol
:)

A: Viewing hd location of installed certificates in firefox

avirkI don't know the exactly location of certificate on HD but you can Backup them to at your desired place and access them easily. Just go to Tools>Options>Advanced>Encryption>View Cerificate and click on that button. Now Certificate Manager window will appear and select the certificate...

 
@JourneymanGeek it still doesn't allow you to say such things..
 
11:50 AM
So anyone know where they exactly stored?
 
@jokerdino: that i want a poking stick?
 
Yes. Stop doing that again.
 
but i can then put it in my umbrella stand with my get off my lawn walking stick >_>
 
I wish he'd just tell people personally when he has a problem with them.
This is more than childish.
 
@slhck these things tend to blow up..
 
11:52 AM
@Sathya I know, but this is not better either. It doesn't even seem like it's a personal thing.
 
@slhck I got a problem with people who doesn't have a vowel in their name..
(just had to say it)
 
People need to just chill
 
Bob
@avirk The cert8.db and key3.db files in the profile, I think
 
@jokerdino There, you said it, now let's go outside and handle it like real men! :P
3
 
says @JourneymanGeek
 
@slhck: singaporean schoolboy tradition is the toilet
for some wierd reason i've never fathomed
 
lol
 
Lol
 
@slhck yeah :P This whole incident makes me think he feels like an outcast / inferior
 
(never gotten into one of those. classroom scraps, in the bad ol days)
 
11:54 AM
@JourneymanGeek Nuff said.
 
;p
I was in the gangster school of the ACS family. Someone even stabbed someone else in the ear with a caligraphy pen in taka ;p
 
@jokerdino Absolutely, but I don't think anyone's ever given him a special treatment.
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek Didn't TrID have this massive database?
 
@Bob: yup
 
@Bob great thanks!
 
Bob
11:56 AM
I vaguely remember taking a whole 24 hours to extract it back before Vista
 
lol
file isn't working for him
 
@JourneymanGeek I don't think our school was so bad. O_o
 
lol
Barker was horrible back in the day
 
@slhck maybe he just assumes things without verifying or clarifying. in any case, i would just leave him as it is
 
So guys what do you think about get engaged on 23 years?
 
11:58 AM
Bad choice.
 
@avirk: love or arranged?
There's a reason why we're good at rugby, despite ACS(I) stealing our best players ;p
;p
 
However its arranged though..
 
@JourneymanGeek That actually makes sense!!1
 
Bob
I should probably wait a couple of hours before editing more :P
 
It really depends on the people anyway
 
11:58 AM
@jokerdino Yeah, I'm debating about adding a comment, but in the end it's not going to help anyone I guess
 
@slhck: if he wants to think there's a cabal controlling SU, there's not much to say
everything that happens here is in public view, and logged anyway
 
Also, chat.
It's not like we're ganging up to all go ahead and downvote certain people
 
Hell, you can pull up how many times i have said lol here
embarassingly
