HAPPY GOOOOD MORNING!!!!!
ureka!!!
What will be your expression when you see this after morning, going to the Stack Overflow site to see a question and find a notification like this
I tried everything suggested in this question plus things like cutting some timing values by factor of 0.1 and the lack of results seems to confirm what you're saying. If you could please provide a link to some at least semi-official source that confirms your statement (launchpad bug report maybe...) the bounty is yours. — Bucic 6 hours ago
wait... He haven't given the bounty yet
:/
Seems I read the last line only..
Semi official statements.. needed..
<facepalm>
 
How do I to create a live-USB with Unity 2D by default? http://askubuntu.com/questions/169851/how-do-i-to-create-a-live-usb-with-unity-2d-by-default?atw=1 #unity2d

Q: What's the difference between .bashrc, .bash_profile, and .environment?

Adam RosenfieldI've used a number of different *nix-based systems of the years, and it seems like every flavor of Bash I use has a different algorithm for deciding which startup scripts to run. For the purposes of tasks like setting up environment variables and aliases and printing startup messages (e.g. MOTDs...

 
2:41 AM
anybody around here?
 
2:52 AM
i'm here
 
I am searching for any semi-official link saying Unity animation can't be disabled !
Any help is welcome
Is there anything like this for Ubuntu 12.04?
 
unity animation? didn't even know unity has animation
 
dash animation exactly. when it hides and shows
 
oh the auto hide option?
 
yes
disabling animation during hiding and unhiding
 
izx
3:07 AM
@AnwarShah No, he REALLY means the dash: Nope. I mean the Dash. The 'start menu' equivalent you invoke using Super key.
 
izx
Not the launcher hide/unhide....
 
The Dash has animation but most people don't see it.
Your system has to be pretty smooth to show it.
 
@izx I forgot. yes
 
izx
****** should have added more detail in his Q instead of sending everyone off on a wild-goose chase.
 
3:08 AM
@RolandTaylor hey
 
izx
He must have a REALLY slow system to be annoyed by it.
 
@izx But why are you answering twice instead of helping me with a semi-official link ? ;P
 
izx
Because the source code shows that the animation time/delay is 850 milliseconds at most.
 
@msPeachy oi
 
izx
@AnwarShah Heh, I'm going to delete the older one.
 
3:09 AM
@psusi you do know that your comments here are highly arrogant and have now landed me a belated downvote... right?

http://askubuntu.com/a/27066/1992
 
@izx he really means the hide animations
 
(And just because you know some things does not make "me right and you wrong").
:) (It's hot here so I'm not in a good mood).
 
@RolandTaylor it happened last year, you just read it now?
It is cold here
 
@msPeachy I got the downvote today.
 
izx
@AnwarShah Fixed it, edited old and deleted the new. I think he means this:
 
3:12 AM
@izx yes, you are correct
 
People have a tendency to downvote old answers of mine for no apparent reason.
 
@izx you clever man. you replaced the old 2 voted answer with new one !!!
 
@RolandTaylor oh i see
 
izx
@AnwarShah Well, editing is the right thing to do, I just made a new one because I wanted to save the content from the old one first :)
 
@izx never mind.. It' ok
 
izx
3:13 AM
I think he has wasted all of our time for something so...minor...
 
Ok to me, ok to everyone
 
@msPeachy what makes it most annoying is that they never say "I'm downvoting because of x, y, or 42."
 
@RolandTaylor No worries, I'll upvote it
 
@msPeachy aww you don't have to
 
@izx yes.. I am still searching for a semi-official link
 
3:14 AM
It's not one of my best answers, and I was actually going to delete it if it weren't for the comment war that followed :)
 
comment war? I also get into trouble with comments...
 
izx
@AnwarShah You can, but I don't think you'll find anything because his issue is too localized...
 
Comments are like a desert: you never know if there is an old dragon lurking around somewhere, waiting to claim victims.

izx
@RolandTaylor That's psusi for you -- everything is either black or white, no gray areas ;)
 
@izx You know, I am a poor person. MUST HAVE MORE REP!!! , so no way
 
3:16 AM
@izx :P
I get that kind of reaction from others, don't worry.
 
@RolandTaylor just did, just to revert the dv
 
Comes with being Roland Taylor.
@msPeachy thanks (better?)
 
(-.-)
 
@RolandTaylor lol
 
3:19 AM
Apparently somebody agreed that it was inappropriate of me to say that on AU
lol
 
@RolandTaylor say what?
 
@RolandTaylor How do you know that?
 
the G+ message?
 
@msPeachy lol no
@AnwarShah I can read thoughts.
 
oh that...:D
 
3:22 AM
Your thoughts are rather boring btw, @AnwarShah. Think about food or something... gosh.
@msPeachy lol yes... that :D
 
@RolandTaylor ????!!!!
 
@AnwarShah I think I'll read someone else's thoughts.
 
@RolandTaylor I wonder who?
 
@RolandTaylor is that me? what did you read?
 
3:24 AM
"Must... get... more... rep..."
 
lol
 
"I wonder what is the meaning of life..."
"It must be to get... more rep"
xD
 
you're funny
 
:P
At least someone thinks so :D
 
@RolandTaylor np.
 
3:28 AM
@RolandTaylor, so you're in a good mood now?
 
izx
@AnwarShah: feel free to totally steal the source portion and add it to your answer, if it will satisfy his craving for a "semi-official" thingy...
 
@izx I am pointing him to your answer.. thanks
 
@msPeachy I guess so
 
one more joke and you're good to go...:P
 
I'll have to see if I can pull one out of a hat
If of course, I can find a hat
 
3:35 AM
lol
 
Oh btw, I'm adding more to my series :D
Including my least favourite thing to write about...
drama
 
i never get to read the rest of the second link
 
oh lol
 
i like drama
 
lol I like reading it but writing it is not easy
I have to think like multiple people
 
3:37 AM
i guess so
 
it's like having multiple personality disorder... and knowing you do
 
you must be dramatic too? :D
 
haha yes
sometimes I feel the emotion of it all
(no lie!)
 
oh you do? wonder how that feels
 
weird lol
like if I'm writing a scene where two people are breaking up, I feel a bit sad - but in a way I can't describe
Or like if I'm writing a scene where someone is angry, I feel a mixture of their anger and excitement - like a rush of adrenaline or like eating too much candy at once
Like sometimes, I have to act it out before I write it
(Meaning talk to myself lol)
 
3:49 AM
Sorry I went to get juice
@RolandTaylor if I can relate to the character, I feel the emotions too. I'm not sure though if I talk to myself...lol
 
this question should be duped to this one
 
@msPeachy it's okay, I'm slightly sane.
 
@RolandTaylor lol, well there are times that I do, when I have something to do that is hard or difficult, I talk to myself to reassure myself that I can do it.
@AnwarShah yes could be a dupe
 
@msPeachy so what you are saying is,
"I am crazy too".
 
@msPeachy u can flag
 
3:59 AM
@RolandTaylor lol, slightly
@AnwarShah the first one is 11.10 and the second 12.04 version
 
@msPeachy judge yourself
 
@msPeachy why not all in?
 
I think, both are same in this
 
@AnwarShah okay will flag thanks
@RolandTaylor lol because I'd like to think that I am not crazy enough, and that I am sane most of the time.
 
I'm the reverse.
 
4:05 AM
With all the things you do and can do, I guess you are...:D
 
@anwar why ping me and then remove the message?
 
@jokerdino did that ping you?
 
yeah ofcourse
 
@jokerdino Sorry, the message was wrong, so I removed. I didn't know, it will ping immediately
 
if you want to ping me, do so. if not, don't.
 
4:09 AM
Oh oh, dino's not in a good mood
 
bah, i just got done with my oral exam. not exactly bad mood.
 
OK. I actually wanted. but changed my mind afterwards
 
@AnwarShah alright.
i think you took way too long to remove the message.
 
How was the exam? Is that final term?
 
the exam wasn't that bad.
not the final exam. but is counted.
 
4:11 AM
We have to do 2 years in college. I think, you're in 2nd year now
 
yep
 
2nd year, 1st term? how many terms are there in a year?
 
2nd year 3rd term.
one more term remaining
 
We have to do only 2 terms in the final year
 
4 terms; 2 semesters
 
4:13 AM
3+2 terms; 2 years
 
4+4 terms; 2 years
 
So, you're in the 3rd term, 4th semester, 2nd year
I mean you finished..
 
yeah
i have 1.5 terms remaining
 
are oral exams taken at the last of exams? (as we do here)
 
yeah
 
4:16 AM
How many oral exams are remaining? I guess, you're in Science department..
 
oral exams are over. i had one last year, two this year
 
when you said oral exam, I first thought of another oral exam, one with a dentist :D
 
eh, not that one.
 
So, you finished all the exams for this term...
 
written and oral exams
@AnwarShah sorta
 
4:19 AM
May I ask something about position? don't mind..
 
??
 
I mean Rank.. Cause, you will get rank after your exams (At least here)
 
huh, don't think so
ok, BBL
 
bye. cya
 
@RolandTaylor you writing now?
bye dino...tc
@AnwarShah is there a Windows installer for xubuntu?
 
4:24 AM
yep
Mostly boring editing to fix errors
 
@RolandTaylor Can I have the link again, so I have something to read while you write. I feel so sleepy
 
@msPeachy sure
 
@AnwarShah thank you
@RolandTaylor okay where?
 
@RolandTaylor Can I disable the video updates from my circles in my G+ profile.
 
4:30 AM
@msPeachy 1 sec
@AnwarShah you mean youtube?
 
No, the videos in G+
 
@AnwarShah I don't think so if I understand the question correctly...
 
@RolandTaylor got it. thank you.
 
I mean, when someone posts videos in their G+ and he also in my circle, then..
 
no you can't turn that off
and why would it be a bother?
the videos are only loaded as an image till you click them
 
4:33 AM
@RolandTaylor thanks
@RolandTaylor noticed just now. thanks.
 
slow internet is the problem
 
Thanks for your earlier comments also..
What you recommend as best browser for slow internet
 
@AnwarShah Opera with Turbo enabled.
afk ~30+ minutes
 
4:49 AM
@RolandTaylor is there a "not" rough version of this?
 
5:25 AM

5:45 AM
Anyone have experience with installing user script in opera?
 
very little lol
I can't remember how it's done off hand
 
o/
 
o/

Q: Print from DosBox

Paul HysenAm running some legacy software for my business, which runs on dBase 5, which has been updated over the years with a great deal of investment in time; this runs our finances, ordering, etc. pretty well.

It would be of great help, if after/before editing, the editor leaves a comment where fits. like this one askubuntu.com/q/169865/61218

hello !
 
9:57 AM
Is there a way to save your edit between closing the answer page?
 
10:40 AM
<<-----Thinking: Why is this room so quiet today?!!!!
 
jrg
BECAUSE I WAS NOT HERE.
 
hello
 
jrg
Hello!
 
It seems, only you and me is here
 
izx
Well, it looks like @jokerdino's net-carriage turned into a pumpkin before midnight today... ;)
 
10:46 AM
<----waiting for another 5 mins to see the truth
@izx ...
Is there a way to save your edit between closing the answer page?
about this question^^?
 
jrg
@AnwarShah yeah, i copy-and-paste.
somewhere in my dropbox is a folder called "Ask Ubuntu edit drafts".
 
izx
@AnwarShah I've seen the system is smart-enough, probably cookie-wise, to save drafts between browser sessions BUT it failed me as much (I'm a fan of sudo reboot ;), so I'd say go with C&P
 
Hmm.... so, no way to half save an answer
 
izx
or use something like clipit which saves clipboard history to a file
just C-a, C-c and you can always retrieve it from somewhere later....
 
will try that, thanks both of you
gratz for the bounty
 
izx
10:50 AM
Well, one way -- hackish -- is to write something, "answer", and then delete. You can edit the "deleted" answer which only you can see, and then undelete when done.
@AnwarShah well, I was as surprised as you that the 0.8 second delay was ACTUALLY what he was so furious about!
 
@izx yeah, after i first knowing that, I edited one of my answer so much that, it becomes a CW ;(
 
@izx what's that?
 
izx
Oh THAT's how it became a CW
 
@izx yeah...furious
@izx after 10 edits...
 
jeez, i just woke up.
 
10:52 AM
I was upset
 
izx
Don't worry, you are on my "excellent answer deserves bounty rep" list too, so expect a +100 at least in the coming month...
 
i was apparently dreaming about adding an option to non pure english speakers and to use some other language for their post.
 
jrg
@jokerdino You and me both.
ok, that's freaky.
 
izx
@jokerdino It's a backhanded way to say aww...we missed ya :p
 
The CW answer is here, askubuntu.com/questions/127923/… feel free to DV or UV
 
10:53 AM
@jrg huh, now i go off to eat dinner; you breakfast.
@izx har har. BBL after dinner :-)
 
izx
@jokerdino Sigh, had a guy post Q in Portuguese, which some kind soul translated, and then he self-answered in Portuguese <facepalm>
 
have you seen this?
 
ok i dash to the dining hall; cya laterz
 
jrg
HEY. @BrunoPereira, trundle on over to UDS-R!
 
@izx thanks.. There was another question regarding the hiding time of launcher. it is very interesting.. may be I put a bounty on that ..
 
izx
10:57 AM
@msPeachy That guy is almost certainly trying to run/upgrade to Precise on a kernel older than 2.6.24; stock libc 2.15 won't work. Usually happens with an OpenVZ VPS, see this answer for an explanation and a workaround.
@jrg Where is UDS-R being held?
 
jrg
@izx Some place in Denmark.
 
izx
argh...oh to be in Europe...
 
Should we close that question as NARQ? or something?
