« first day (2274 days earlier)      last day (2691 days later) » 

12:00 AM
:) well enough rant for one evening, the world is plain and simply shit crazy
 
I installed Windows 8.1 last week... played my game for three hours... woke up machine next day and it was dead because after suspend Windows went into hibernate... locked drive... after recovery Nvidia drivers were all gone and Windows doesn't even see the card anymore but Ubuntu does :(
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I would call this a sign :))
 
@Videonauth you mean the middle east... you don't mean the world... Worse thing going on around here is #BlackLivesMatter and #OccupyWallStreet
 
@Serg @WinEunuuchs2Unix I think the last time I used Windows was like more than 7 years ago, I don't even know what Win8, Win10 or whatever the latest windows version is looks like :p
 
I mean the whole world really, its not just the middle east
 
12:02 AM
@IanC Windows looks like Ubuntu only the fonts are blurry :D
@Videonauth Your city and mine are in the world too... Only bad thing around here are all the homeless dumpster diving.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix well, can't take the west responsability of what is going on in the middle east though
 
@Videonauth exactly
 
@IanC What do you mean? West has killed millions of Muslims... ISIS maybe just a few hundred EU civilians.
 
here is something interesting i dug up via twitter : lifehacker.com/…
 
@IanC basically, same thing, just different colors and no more internet explorer.
also they failed by trying to remove start menu
people didn't like that at all
 
12:05 AM
@Serg so they finally gave up IE? :o
YEAH! I think last time I saw windows on someone elses computer I was like "shit, where did the start menu go"
and their dash kind of suck
 
@IanC yeah, Win 10 now has different browser, Spartan it's called, i think. Icon is the same though
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I mean that the fundamentalists got strong because of the cold war
 
@Zanna Finally??? You surely mean: A while ago... ;-)
 
I once had to troubleshoot someone's laptop with win8. Barely figured out how to get to network settings.
 
There are religious fundamentalists in USA too they are called the Amish or something like that.... they don't go around shooting people and blowing stuff up because you leave them alone.
 
12:07 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix And the Amish are some of the milder fundamentalists tho
 
@ByteCommander Women go for intelligence.... Degree is one of the parameters... >:-)
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix the are some similar-type people in Alberta.
 
@Fabby Then please explain to my why the dumbest idiots always get the most beautiful girls?
 
@NathanOsman Yup the hutterites
@NathanOsman and a colony where they make your Kokanee beer... can't remember then name of the town.
 
@ByteCommander because they know how to act cool. Women eventually figure out that type is only good on the surface
 
12:10 AM
@Serg "Edge", I think?
 
user136984
I am now the happy grinch! :D
 
user136984
Anyway...
 
user136984
Goodnight folks! :)
 
night panda
 
goodnight grinch....have fun stealing presents in your dreams.
 
12:12 AM
you know, I'm completely against fundamentalism and the terrorism that arises from it, but I think USA hides its responsability on the mess that we have right now (who would say right?)
the extremist religious rebels started getting powerful because USA wanted to kick URSS out of the middle east, so they fund those, give them guns because it's convenient for them at the time
 
@Serg And cannons??? :-)
@ByteCommander That's the "bad boy's syndrome" (cc @Zanna)
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I'm impressed! How old are you???
 
@Fabby that too. Point is, Benjamin Franklin hasn't seen the sh*t we have to deal with in our day and age. Benjamin Franklin is interesting to me only when i see him on my paycheck - otherwise, dare i say it, he's kind of irrelevant nowadays
 
@IanC they gave the rebels in Afghanistan Shoulder ground to air missiles to shoot down Soviet Helicopters and now they are talking about doing that again for ISIS in Syria, but they call them "moderate rebels".
 
so pointing fingers at the middle east and saying "Oh, there's where the world has gone mad" is a bit like saying it's something intrinsic in middle east people
 
@Serg :D
 
12:15 AM
so just read a message on the live blog of the FAZ (which is one of the bigger newspapers here). Quote: Noch haben die Behörden in Berlin nicht bestätigt, dass es sich in Berlin um einen Anschlag gehandelt hat. Der zukünftige amerikanische Präsident geht aber von einem Terrorakt aus und fordert ein Umdenken der zivilisierten Welt.
(google translate which is probably awful: The authorities in Berlin have not yet confirmed that it was an attack in Berlin. The future American president, however, proceeds from a terrorist act and calls for a rethinking of the civilized world.)
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Starred! :-)
@ParanoidPanda Pumpkin!!! :D
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I was going to get there, I'm not really deeply informed about Syria, but can't you smell a little cold war flash back from what's going on there?
 
Today there were terror attacks in Turkey, Switzerland and Germany - and it is only getting worse. The civilized world must change thinking!
 
@Serg don't look above
 
oh, plz . . .
 
12:17 AM
>.<
 
@Serg Not really: Ben Franklin allowed any weapons that the military had... According to the spirit of the law, you should be able to own an Atomic bomb!
 
@IanC Well its a fact that most military equiptment in the middle east is made in usa or made in germany
 
Trump doesn't realize that Syria was civilized 4,000 years before America was.
3
 
@Videonauth :D :D :D
 
Btw, today when I entered my name in google image search, result number 19 was exactly the one who shall not be named ^
 
12:18 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Starred!!!
 
@Fabby well that was within the post i got from the FAZ I quoted right above
 
and about 30 minutes earlier i said the politicians will use this for their own agenda
 
this whole situation truly sucks, and it's hard to think of a way to start fixing it
 
@Videonauth In English "Their own agenda"
 
12:20 AM
@Fabby Not that one :P
 
:D ;) :P
 
eeeee
I'm so excited
I actually have a reason to root my phone soon!!!
and the second screen is probably going to work!
 
:whew:
I was wondering why you were so excited!!!
 
Result number 3 was from findagrave.com though, which wasn't really much more pleasing...
 
@ByteCommander :lol:
SMOKE! BRB!
 
12:22 AM
Good now I can type without getting starred by @Fabby :p
 
@Fabby Ben Franklin haven't seen atomic bombs, did he ?
 
And DuckDuckGo's image search brought up 10 results for my name, the first 8 of them from criminalfaces.com
something's wrong with the internet today...
 
@ByteCommander huehuehuehuehuehuehuehue
 
@ByteCommander lol
did you searc for your real name ?
 
12:23 AM
so because forum idiots can't read the OP, the CM14.1 thread for my Note got locked because no one was asking in the Q&A thread like they should have been
 
I notice Google Search will only show like 3 off my worst blog posts out of 10,000... which is why Clinton loves google which is why I hate Clinton....long story.
 
wut
 
Google was pro Clinton during elections and filtered results to her favour... Bing and Yahoo search engines reported truthfully though.
 
sure
 
Well, late enough. Goodnight.
 
12:25 AM
sleep well
 
night...don't byte the bed bugs
 
 
I'm gonna go take a shower. I really hate the whole trump-second ammendment-terrorist-conspiracy theory bullcarp
 
@IanC don't know that movie?
 
I actually don't even know if that's from a movie @WinEunuuchs2Unix lol
 
12:26 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix :) :P I read the backlog, sorry!
 
The Syrian people need the second amendment to protect themselves from the Rebels.
 
At the end of the day, people die and other people go "Oh, great, let's use that as tool to advance my own ideas"
 
@Serg No, but if he would have, he would have allowed them...
 
lol @Fabby... you should have asked for a smoking hotel room in Germany.
 
@Fabby I doubt that..
 
12:27 AM
(don't forget that anything the British Empire military had was allowed by the constitution
 
@Fabby even Einstein himself regretted working on atomic energy.
 
@Serg Even Einstein believed in God in the end when he couldn't explain Quantum Mechanics.
 
@Zacharee1 See above... UK is one of the 5 allowed nuclear bombs...
I should tell you some day about me asking for road instructions in front of the British army's nuclear compound....
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix what does that have to do with atomic bombs ?
 
@Serg he regretted working on the Manhattan project
Not on working on nuclear energy...
 
12:30 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix sometimes I think you throw out words into conversation for absolutely no reason
 
@Serg I'm pointing out how Einstein changed his mind about things in life as he got older
 
:D :D :D
 
@Fabby Manhattan project
 
Sorry sometimes I'm thinking on a different plane...
 
@Videonauth I bow to your wisdom! ;) (mistype correctred so anyone else reading the transcript doesn't think you're an idiot: Oppenheimer changed to Manhattan.)
 
12:31 AM
thou must adore meeeehhhh
:D
 
Oppenheimer was physicist and one of the people who worked on the Manhattan project
 
this is a bug report!!! askubuntu.com/review/close/655692
it's not even a question!
 
its a fact we all do things in our lives we later regret
2
 
@Videonauth Nope...
All the things I did made me the person I am today, and I don't regret anything....
Not even sleeping wiht 3 girls at the same time.
 
@Videonauth True
 
12:33 AM
I knew it was stupid, but enjoyed ever moment of it at the time...
 
@Fabby thats nothing to regret :p
 
@Videonauth That was the most stupid thing I ever did in my life! :P ;)
 
@Zacharee1 I go ballistic when I fail an audit question too.
 
Fabby stop im drooling here lol
 
o_O
 
12:35 AM
@Fabby... 3 girls at once and regret can't be used in the same sentences.
 
@Videonauth Don't: At the time I knew it was stupid and I still persevered and got to keep exactly none!
 
alright people
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I mean: they didn't know about each other...
 
@Fabby starred hehe
 
Ah ok that wasnt exactly clear, sounded more you had a foursome :DD
 
12:36 AM
Now, that's what the world should be doing - just have more healthy sex , instead of terrorism
2
 
Well, I did once sleep with 3 girls in one room, but that turned out to be 2-on-2 most of the time, but then I was 19... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
OK Fabby... I'm kind of innocent still....
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix What's your decade?
 
@Serg Starred!
:O
 
12:38 AM
if you must discuss your sexual escapades, please find another medium. Thank you.
 
1967: new decade soon enough (as per my profile, don't know if it's still afvertised)
 
why is the default vm.swappiness so high? -.-
 
and im 5 years younger than fabby
 
So I'm the old fish in the school of the young fish?
 
kinda i guess
 
12:40 AM
@Seth Hey, read the "on-topic guide", my dear mod... ;-)
"Normally,..." :P
 
@Seth the grinch who stole sexmas from @Fabby :p
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix There's older then you in here every now and then...
@WinEunuuchs2Unix :LOL:
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix look at that, I even have the grinch hat on.
 
It's late here: don;t make me wake up the kids who went to sleep!
 
@Fabby problaby Elder Geek I imagine... Terrace hinted he has old eyes like me with my 1.5x screen magnification.
 
12:41 AM
@Seth what's the age limit for StackExchange account ?
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Elder Geek is old, but not the eldest...
 
maybe that should be raised to like 14.
 
Serge I was joking when I said 9... I don't know
 
@Serg you mean minimum age? 13.
 
12:42 AM
@Serg You surely act like a 14-YO...
 
(and you should keep doing that into your 90's) ;-)
 
Owen Hines is 15 he's the youngest I know of... pretty smart kid though... great English skills... surprising really.
 
@Fabby It's not the physical age that matters
 
@Seth Reminds me when I got stopped by the police in NY:
 
12:43 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix PPCG had a 13 year old mod. Great guy.
 
"You mean: 55 is the maximum speed limit???
 
@Seth yeah there is lots of hope amongst the younger generation... I won't knock them like our grandparents did us.
 
"In my country that's the minimum speed limit!
 
@Fabby well at least you are in Germany now with the Autobahn and no speeding tickets except for tourists....oopsie!
 
(They believed me and let me get away with it)
@WinEunuuchs2Unix As I'm driving my mum's car: True??? @Videonauth
@Seth PPCG?
 
12:46 AM
@Fabby hahaha
 
It worked!
Same as "How many driving licenses have "Driving license" in Russian printed on it?
 
@Fabby not really true there are only a few autobahn paths left where you can drive without speed limit, but the min speed for the autobahn is 60 KM/h and the max differs from 100 up to 160 KM/h if theres a speed limit
 
(it was Greek and just a Belgian driving license)
 
Wow @Fabby all that starring you did to me earned me an "outspoken" badge here in chat.
 
and it doesnt matter if youre a tourist or a german if you get cought speeding you get a ticket, for germans its actually far worse because you cnan loose your drivers license up to it
 
12:48 AM
@Videonauth Yeah... Just use the max whenever it's allowed
 
and getting a driver license in germany is quite costy
 
Nice thing about not having a driver's license is I can't loose it!
 
(max=150Km/h in my little Nissan Micra)
 
Anyway, I'm gonna go shower. The world sometimes is a sh#tty place
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Good for you!!!
 
12:49 AM
@Fabby another nice thing is Cops don't ask for driver's license anymore whilst Jay Walking!
 
@Videonauth I got a German ticket but it was in French and I never took the state French exam, so I'm not supposed to speak it, so it's invalid... :)
 
lol
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Where do you live???
 
@Fabby I got French parking tickets from Quebec City... never paid them :)
@Fabby Canada.
 
Ah, zut alors! ;)
 
12:51 AM
well in germany you can loose your drivers license even if you dont drive a car, walking cross the street while being drunk can be enough if you face the wrong cop
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I suppose you never took the state exam neither...
 
and if you dont have one they preventing you from getting one
 
"zut alors" is a polite version of "damn" or "s*** man!"
 
@Videonauth In Belgium you need to "ride a vehicle
Bicycles count, Horses do not.
 
@Fabby [ppcg.se]
 
12:52 AM
in germany everything counts as soon you endanger the traffic
 
hmm
 
@Fabby you can get a speeding ticket on a bicycle in Canada too.
 
It's actually legal to ride a horse as long as the horse itself isn;t drunk!
 
That's because horses are smarter than us unless they are wearing blinders :p
 
12:53 AM
fabby what does a drivers license in belgium cost?
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix anywhere...
@Seth ah!
@Videonauth Depends...
If you already have one and want to convert it: < 5€
 
well in germany you can estimate at least 1500 euros
if you dont have one
 
If you don't have one, and your parents are <65: <200€
 
god thats almost nothing compared
 
Mine cost less then that.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
12:59 AM
ah and if you lost your license here, and want to get it again after the time they blocked you off you can estimate 3000 euros and more
 
Why?
 
becasue they send you for a psychologal evaluation before you even can apply for one
and you have to take this cost as well
 
(German authorities cannot take mine away: it's property of the Belgian state and they need to take the state to court to take it away)
@Videonauth :O Wow!
Understandable as Germany has no speed limit though...
 
this is why i not made a new license after i lost mine
simply cant afford it
 
You lost yours????
Don't tell me!
 
1:01 AM
yeah 19 years back
 
That's unfortunate...
 
i think i told you about as we spoke on skype if not ill tell you when we have tome for that again
 
I've had a few drinks...
Had none over the WE
Need to call the boss...
 
fun fact: example you rob someone and carry his briefcase home with your car you can loose your license too in germany, because you used your car as a tool in a crime
 
BRB
 
1:04 AM
@Videonauth All you really need is a few limousines, a jet plane and a couple of yachts :) After that you won't miss your driver's license at all!
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix yeah maybe if i find oil somewhere around here i can afford that :p
 
In the world of business you say you might have found oil and then sell stocks.
 
yep and then run of to cayman island or somewhere safe
 
*cayman
not sure why I know how to spell it properly...hehe
 
1:13 AM
@ThomasWard thanks for the new Santa hat... but shouldn't it be red and pointy instead of greyish with four points? :p
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix that's culturally insensitive.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix hail the dark Santa.
he has a grey four-pointy hat
and brings DOOM
 
lmao culturally insensitive
 
Do you not know of The Christmas spork?
HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW OF THE CHRISTMAS SPORK
 
spork sounds culturally insensitive close to pork
That reminds me I have to take the Christmas Turkey out of the Freezer and put it into the Fridge tomorrow.... so much to do sigh
 
1:15 AM
But no one's ever made a spork of pork, tho I suppose you could have a spork for pork, and it would be only be more haram if you washed it with whisky.
 
haram sounds gender insensitive
and whisky sounds AA insensitive
 
WHISKEY
GIVE
or VODKA
GIVE
 
and "I" sounds "we" insensitive
 
*goes off, gets drunk, passes out*
 
* embedded asterisks within italics *
it's not bold
hmmm
 
1:19 AM
*embeds asterisks within italics using godliness and *\*HAIL HYDRA\** as the code*
 
**backslash to escape your characters**
**\try this**\
grrr
 
*<-- There is an escaped asterisk here. And here -->*
@WinEunuuchs2Unix you switched the order
*\*foo\**
 
teward drunk again?
 
**I'm out of order **
 
@edwinksl No. Should I be?
 
1:20 AM
**Oh foo it all anyway **
 
@edwinksl DID YOU BRING ME THE VODKA FROM THE MOTHERLAND LIKE YOU PROMISED ON DISCORD YOU WOULD?!?!?
 
lululul
 
I have maybe a silly doubt on function keys: they are usually a combination of ESC and some other characters (For example, HOME here gives me ^[[H which is ESC + [ + H). Can we recreate them by pressing ESC and those keys somehow? Or they are only interpreted as the function key if there's no significant delay between the presses?
 
1:53 AM
Hi-lo
 
@TheXed GREETINGS!
 
2:03 AM
Clues and tries on secret hats: docs.google.com/document/d/…
 
@Videonauth now that was a confusing link... I think I'll just do my normal business and see what hats drop my way :)
 
well thats some kind of experimental stuff they seem to write down what works and what not for idfferent hats
the common not secret hats are listet here: winterbash2016.stackexchange.com
 
hello @ThomasWard
 
2:19 AM
@ThomasWard I have a really nice (IMHO) answer on this question askubuntu.com/q/861701/518562 but it was marked as a dupe of another which again, IMO has a lower quality answer. If you agree, could we reverse the dupe marking?
 
BEWARE, UBUNTU, OF THE RISE OF ZORIN OS 12!
oh hi @AndroidDev
 
@Windows3.1 BEWARE THE RISE OF THE EVIL SANTA!!! HE IS MY MINION AND SHALL BRING CHAOS TO THEE!
@Videonauth me
 
i'm goin to bed though, good night.
 
@ThomasWard I HAVE DONALD TRUMP ON MY SIDE, AND I SHALL SURELY HAVE THE LAST LAUGH
 
2:20 AM
sleep well
 
@Windows3.1 The good (or bad) news is Trump is rumoured to have turned down the highly lucrative $350K salary of the office of the president and he'll do it for free.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I know
 
A lowly Private can make $350K stealing gold in Libya or Iraq and still keep is $50K salary.
So now everyone knows a crooked government employee can make more than the president who should be the highest paid employee.... Look how much Clinton foundation made as a leading example to the whole wide world.
Although turning down President salary of 350K, Trump is rumoured of wanting to keep his reality show saying "You're FIRED!"
 
2:45 AM
@AndroidDev sure
@AndroidDev I won't reverse the dupe, but I will merge your answer into the other question.
 
3:27 AM
i have no idea what happened updating to the new insider build
microsoft be like "New Build- What's new? Absolutely NOTHING!"

I'm not a fan of Seth's "I'm an idiot" comment - I think it's lies
 
@Zanna lol
If I posted "I'm an idiot" I'd get half a gazillion likes

@Windows3.1 What do you mean?
 
9:58 AM
Guys, I'd like to ask what you would do. in this question, it is essential to know the time format in the log files. I asked many, many times, and got as many different time formats. It's driving me crazy. askubuntu.com/questions/860475 let the question go?
