I'd love to see a screenshot of how it's coming.

Sure. Gimme a sec.

^ is without the attachments bar open

^ with it open

Nathan Osman

Looks awesome.

RPi Awesomeness

Still needs some work on the attachments bar (ListView of all current attachments is next thing I'm adding) but otherwise it works.

Thanks :)

It's really annoying that I have to wait on someone else so I can continue :P

I guess I could move on a work on the getting email part of the program, but I don't like leaving such a major bug behind :P

And I definitely can't release with that bug still occurring :P

Why to use Multiverse? (What is the purpose of Multiverse repository provided by Ubuntu?)

Journeyman Geek

@Pandya: you want non-free software?

Pandya

I am asking this because 1. they are non-free (licensing requirements of this software do not meet the Ubuntu main component licence policy) 2.This software is not supported and usually cannot be fixed or updated. Use it at your own risk. ( I found from help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories)

@JourneymanGeek No. (There is Restricted already exist then why to Multiverse?)

hm. Restricted is to multiverse what main is to universe ;p

@Takkat anyway thanks

Takkat

I only said because of my blue suit here ;)

ByteCommander

We should add a @MODERATOR ping...

Takkat

which we mods also call a flag for moderator's attention ;)

but true, sometimes it would help to just ping a mod in chat.

Oli

9:16 AM

@ByteCommander Yeah, that wouldn't be abused :)

@Maythux I'm here.

user136984

@Oli: Perhaps if only users over a certain rep could use it, and if it had a limit for each person in a certain time frame, and people could even be banned from using it.

Oli

@ParanoidPanda It's bad enough when another mod in the Teachers' Lounge (the mod-only room) does a site ping (all mods get buzzed). Few issues need all moderators and we rarely have so many users in here that you can't glance up at the current users and see which mod was last active (and therefore most likely to be here).

ByteCommander

@Oli We would need a maximum rating according to rep score maybe. Like one ping per day per 1k?

Or what about a bot lurking around in this room and posting messages with links whenever pinged in a "moderator standby room"?

user136984

Why not having a ping associated with the site so any online mods of the site get pinged?

ByteCommander

So whenever any mod has nothing to do, he/she may hang out in the standby room and check if anybody is in need of a diamond member...

3 more rep points and I reach 3.4k! :)

Fabby

@ParanoidPanda Because it gives you a maximum of 5 (five)! :P

user136984

Oh... :D

user136984

Oh great... So I am 5 then... :D

user136984

Why though?

user136984

All seems very strange... :D

Fabby

2:42 PM

@ParanoidPanda Because you just acted like a 5-YO instead of your real age??? >:)

user136984

@Fabby: Did I? When? How?

Fabby

@ParanoidPanda Meh! 5K is the next big thing... And then comes the steep climb to 10K! (and an even steeper one to 20K)

@ParanoidPanda asking what RTFA means??? as in RTFM but for A = article???

user136984

Yeah, I know, but if I set my goal as something closer, then it will feel like less time has gone by.

user136984

No, but the F and T were the other way round... So that was what confused me... :D

RFTA!

2:48 PM

That's all that really confused me...

user136984

But I see that that was just a typo now, and that the A was article, I mean, I suspected it would be, but I couldn't think of what the other letters could be in their order! :D

user136984

I set my goal as the next 100 every time.

user136984

So it feels like the bigger 5k comes sooner.

user136984

:)

user136984

@Fabby: But I don't really get that much at 5k, do I?

user136984

2:52 PM

I only get to approve tag wiki edits.

user136984

And I guess that that is just like another review queue, but it is not much like 10k.

Fabby

@ParanoidPanda :D Ah!

@ParanoidPanda Yup! And only @ByteCommander ever edits tag wikis anyway...

>:)

user136984

:D

user136984

Really?

Fabby

3:07 PM

@ParanoidPanda Maybe one by someone else since I reached 5K...

My Ubuntu phone has arrived! :) :)

user136984

Good for you! :)

user136984

My browser has got a problem with images at the moment so I can't see it.

user136984

But is it nice looking?

Fabby

It's still in its box! >:)

ByteCommander

@Fabby Really? DO you think so?

Fabby

3:12 PM

yes, or I wouldn't have said so...

:P

ByteCommander

okay...

Is that now good or bad?

Fabby

For you: Good!

ByteCommander

:)

Fabby

For the site??? No opinion! :D

ByteCommander

Oh, and did you know you still get +2 per tag edit, even if you don't get points for normal edits any more.

user136984

3:13 PM

I sometimes edit tags...

Fabby

:D No, I didn't know...

user136984

But mostly just when I've created one and it needs a description.

Fabby

@ParanoidPanda I've never seen any to approve from you...

Ah! That's probably 15K or higher level then...

I am following http://thepcspy.com/read/converting-ubuntu-desktop-to-kiosk/ guide to turn my Ubuntu into a Kiosk, and everything works fine except when my Google Chrome boots it doesn't have any of my web cams I have attached or any of my devices.

Q: Can't upload image from from PC?

I am not able to upload images from my system though am able to post images from web. While trying to do so, I get redirected to a page saying that it is a problem from their side and that a error report was sent. It also speaks of reporting the same here. It is reproducible, if anyone requires ...
