Sad part is that i know how the guy feels. I'd be willing to pay for someone to do my control systems stuff and ADC stuff but . . .damn ethics won't allow me
that is why you have to be Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton...the two people on Earth where ethics and morals don't matter and there are no penalties...other then burning in Hell when that time comes of course...
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I was just reading this Scientific American article, and it kind of lays out the difference between weather and climate. Climate is a more long-term average while weather can be a anomaly in a moment. So yeah, Global Warming is actually a climate change
it kind of frightens me to see the new USA president stating the global warming is some kind of Chinese conspiracy
not like USA actually gave much shit about the environment before
I think they were starting something on Obama's government, but now that Trump won..
Trump could make a good case blaming the Chinese for air pollution with lots of emperical evidence.... That would be a good line of attack me thinks. @IanC
It's hard to argue Ice Ages, volcanoes and meteors because they are rare events, but it's easy to argue air pollution and water pollution. If say Trump attacked them with some sort of import tax because of damage done, it would be good for China too (they breathe it and drink it first hand) and to me that's a win-win situation. Even Xiang Ji Ping (sp?) would secretly be happy.
If we waged war against air pollution, water pollution and over harvesting of fish, etc. it would be better than waging war in middle east with millions in collateral damage. IMO.
@Zacharee1 Canadian Thanksgiving was October 20ish something. Christmas parties are cheaper the farther away from Dec 25th which kind of spells out my company's budget...LOL
I'm not sure that's Trumps plan, but it would definitely be a better scenario than him fighting so he can have the "right" to pollute too @WinEunuuchs2Unix
@IanC You saw the protests over North Dakota pipelines recently so you and I both know Americans won't swallow pollution on their own turf, although they do accept it worldwide today.
@Zacharee1 I know... I urged China to adopt air and water quality guidelines... but I'd like to see Trump push them on it and hold them to American standards... using tarrifs as a stick.
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I'm fairly certain many of thos same people are working to remedy climate change in other areas too, but even the ones who are doing this because it finally got to them, well, now they have a wake-up call
I say let's talk air pollution and water pollution that you can see and taste and forget about carbon capture and storage for awhile.... along with cow farts.
KISS
Also there was Japan's Fukushima Reactor meltdown nuclear radiation leaking into the ocean but it was totally ignored by the global community as something that should be fixed.
The whole world (ie UN or UN Security Council) did nothing because Japan has fiat currency blessed system and Japan's Electric company was a blessed corporation so they were green-lighted to screw up all along the way with not so much as a peep by the UNSC.
Nuclear experts from around the world should have invaded Japan and fixed the problem even if Telco kept saying they were a corporation backed by fiat currency and therefore had it all under control with unquestionable rights.
@IanC I'm just saying to forget about climate change and focus on air pollution and water pollution instead.
Nope... climate change is about carbon capture and storage, carbon tax credits, etc.... they don't talk about air pollution or water pollution which they should focus on in my opinion.
Let's invade China, Pakistan, India, Africa and give them a billion mufflers / catalytic converters!!!!
@JourneymanGeek I don't know enough about India's and Zimbawee's currency exchange manouvers this last week to intelligently comment. I've been Ubuntu-busy.
Maybe next year... I go in swings from one interest area to another... ie last year it was crashing the oil price.... last four months was Ubuntu with a little Clinton killing and Trump promoting thrown in for good measure.
Anyway, I'm optimistic for the future of the world with the internet's ability to bring out the truth to challenge politics and media which in turn controls the war machine, economy, how we treat each other (call that religion if you will) and changing direction on a dime :)
Wow... we call that park and ride or something like that... I take Bus Bus Bus to work and then Bus Bus Bus home or sometimes Bus Bus Bus Bus to save 10 minutes if I catch the second bus.... it's complicated :)
Oh not a big deal even if it's minus 21... only 50 minutes by 3 buses to get to work and the same to get home, or 40 minutes if I catch the elusive second bus #125 and take 4 instead of 3 buses. For the most part bus service is wonderful. As is the train service.
A little awkward when the city has a campaign to unlawfully interrogate people who look like me because they might have an unpaid fine.... but that's a different story.
Sometimes knowing the law against unlawful detention, search and seizure is a curse. Civil rights are only for white people I think...
I have upgraded ubuntu from 16.04 to 16.10 which is initially broken then i rewrote entire disk with the new 16.10 using a live boot stick.
Then i have installed my old back ups which is in .tgz format back which is discribed in at this link

If i try as a different user i am getting this nautilus No protocol specified Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to connect to server socket: No such file or directory Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
(nautilus:4985): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0
Using terminal i just gone to another user with the command su <user>
@Zanna same think is happening for the new user as well first time it just popped up and died
And the log is like (nautilus:5707): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to register client: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files
(nautilus:5707): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: Two different plugins tried to register 'NautilusUserShare'.
OK, thanks. I'me reviewing a script for someone at work and they have the service foo enable command. I worry that it's no longer very portable. Not even between Ubuntu versions, but it looks like it's OK. Thanks!
In Fedora we have 'systemctl' and 'service' scripts. It seems that service internally calls systemctl. So what is the correct/right way on Fedora to start or stop services -- via systemctl or service facility? May be there are nuances to keep in mind?
thanks for asking an interesting question. I thought it will be straightforward. Learned something new. Especially the date difference is maintained in Ruby very nicely
:) @Anwar yes we spoke about time & date compications as well last night and its a real PITA if you have to make your project comply with timezones(daylight saving etc)
@ByteCommander Sadly, the rules of the be nice policy and the weight of responsibility my diamond lays upon my feeble, old shoulders, preclude me from giving you the answer that statement deserves.
@George When editing posts, do try not to re-upload images. When you do that, the reviewer then has to check whether the images are actually the same, whereas normally they could just view the changes made in markdown. It's simple to convert a link to an SE imgur upload (like https://i.stack.imgur.com/foobar.png) to an embedded one: .
Of course, it's a different case if the images were not originally uploaded to the Stack Exchange imgur subdomain. But right now I'm talking of edits like askubuntu.com/review/suggested-edits/651663
As listed here in this question, OP is asking for a guide on how to install Android/CM/Flyme on his MX4.
Is this off-topic? @Bruni pointed out that we support installing Windows on a pre-installed Ubuntu machine.
My biggest caveat with this is that we open a can of worms regarding people brick...
@PatrickNegus This is a bit inconsistent. Why is installing Windows on an Ubuntu pre-installed computer on topic, but installing an Android flavor on an Ubuntu Touch pre-installed device off topic? I never understood the first case (PC), but if the first part is accepted, imho so should be the second. — Bruni2 hours ago
Huh?
installing Windows on an Ubuntu pre-installed computer is on topic?
