Hi, there's still no good way to make scrollwheel go faster? I searched yesterday, but only answers are with imwheel, and it can be buggy it seems

Anwar

@caub you wanted it for chome, right?

caub

chrome or any other, even in folder manager (oh well it's fast enough there), so yes Chrome at least

Anwar

6:38 AM

I found scrolling slower in chrome and ended up using an extension.

caub

ah, ok thanks

Anwar

I had to reinitialize full ubuntu and I forgot the name. sorry

caub

well it's same speed on Firefox

Anwar

same slower?

caub

yes just as slow as chrome scroll

Anwar

I will, thanks for telling

you're welcome

turns out it was already installed, I already checked the configuration for mouse, nothing to change scroll speed

@Anwar users sometimes like vandalizing their own posts because we don't give them the delete button.

caub

also lubuntu fonts are quite ugly :), coming from windows, but I don't mind and will get used

Anwar

@KazWolfe but how will it allow them to delete?

Kaz Wolfe

@Anwar It doesn't.

It just annoys us because we need to rollback their vandalisms.

Anwar

But it was an innocent post!

Kaz Wolfe

7:11 AM

Look at the revision history.

OP for whatever reason wanted it gone. I'm not OP, I don't know what OP was thinking.

OP just wanted it gone, and decided to vandalize his own post because you can't delete a question with answers.

Anwar

hmm... I think it's because of the mentioning of some proprietary fonts?

Kaz Wolfe

I do know that this is known to happen where OP is embarrassed by their question (very simple answer) and/or it gains a lot of downvotes.

Anwar

@caub Use subpixel rendering, hinting slight. It should be great

caub

hmm how you configure that? the more annoying thin is sublime text font, but I'll find a way to put a better font there

Anwar

any screenshot?

caub

7:16 AM

ah screenshot, another thin I need to install, 1 min :)

Anwar

scrot comes with lubuntu

i believe

caub

hmm, I install gnome scrrenshot thing

Anwar

gnome thing will look ugly on lubuntu because of headerbar

caub

it's not too ugly, but i don't know it feels less readable than on windows

Anwar

@caub why do you hink it's ugly?

maybe it's because of the font. Windows' consolas is super readable

caub

7:21 AM

this was on windows github.com/babel/babel-sublime/issues/305, not so different, but slightly clearer to me

oh well, nvm, I need to get used :)

@Anwar can you screenshot a regiononly with scrot too?

Anwar

hmm. You may try hinting: full then.

I haven't tried or I forgot. but It should be possible

caub

windows / lununtu comparison (for same code)

well you can see windows fonts is a but more compact, I'll find a way thanks for the help

Possible duplicate of "Welcome to emergency mode!" Think it is a fsck problem — luk3yx 13 hours ago

I don't think all emergency mode questions fit under the duplicate he provided

On that question itself there is ton of different answers which all seem for different cases

Due to lack of correlation between actual error that OP has and what is mentioned in the duplicate, I'd say it's not a duplicate

Zanna

@Serg yeah I know...

@Serg I agree

I think someone should tell luk3yx not to do that

I don't know enough about what could cause it

@Zanna lol, you should start learning Python: print("agree"*3)

but I feel there are multiple causes

@Anwar the GUI doesn't show an option, but you'll see reply messages start with :<message-id>, and the message ID can be changed to one of your own messages

Serg

@Anwar you have to get the permalink of the post , get the message ID , and just add :12345 (the message ID ) in the beginning

it's a bit too complex

but works

A: What is the legal status of data (intentionally deleted or not) on a second-hand computer?

Data, as it happens in law, can also be owned. That's why we have a discipline called "Intellectual Property". It is a "thing" - like other properties like cars, houses etc., someone owns it. Now, does the transfer of a computer also includes a transfer of data ownership stored inside the comput...

Anwar

interesting...

Zanna

Hi @Anwar :) how are you?

Anwar

it says "If somebody uses this data, then he is using data collected through illegal means, and can be prosecuted." why is it illegal? Since it's their failure to protect the data. The usage should be illegal, but the capturing isn't imo

@Zanna I'm fine. Thanks for asking :) you?

Serg

@Anwar I suppose the data must be obtained with permission of the person/organization

Although taking into account the recent bill that the US government has voted on , this is basically doesn't matter

According to that bill ISPs won't have to have permission to collect user's private data; they just can and can sell it to advertisers

Eh, go figure

Zanna

9:33 AM

OK @muru I reproduced your achievements inbox bug

@Anwar still waking up I think :) it's taking a long time today

@Serg WAT? O.O

but no green stuff

Also this: washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2017/03/28/…

Anwar

9:38 AM

So, it means ISP can literally sell your data without breaking any law?

I'd say trumptastic!

Serg

Technically, yes. Of course, they can't technically sell it to anybody, probably sell it for advertisement purposes . . . But let's say . . . AT&T's servers get hacked . . .or Verizon's . . . all that juicy data that they collected from users will go into the hands of black-hat hackers

Anwar

I'm interested to learn the reaction of US citizens about it. What do they think about it?

Serg

A lot are upset about it. I see more and more people mentioning VPN, which is great news, although it seems to lack the outrage.

Anwar

hmm...

But it's inconvenient to stick to a VPN i think. you need to connect to it every time and check if it's connected and etc etc

Rinzwind

@Anwar not really. It is just another part of connecting to the internet. It will slow down your connection setup but can be made to automatically reconnect on disconnect.

@Serg you own it. :-)

Anwar

9:47 AM

@Rinzwind fair point. I remember seeing an option in connection manager. btw, nice to see you :)

I see you got that Legendary badge. Late congratulations!

Rinzwind

yes I have

and thanks :)

we have 1 computer here that I must use to connect to our google instances. It is basically a VPN connection and I can SSH into that system from the office (and only the office).

Anwar

but what is your options if VPN is made illegal?

Serg

That's . . . a big problem . . . and i doubt government wants to open that can of worms

Rinzwind

10:20 AM

@Anwar how would they enforce that? You can't detect if someone is connected over a VPN.

@Serg China likes cans of worms :-P

Serg

10:35 AM

@Rinzwind Pfff, even China doesn't nuke VPN as much. I know because I have friends who access facebook from China and guess what they use ? VPN. Sure Chinese government sometimes flexes muscles but for the most part it's perfectly fine. On the other hand, US government especially with Trump now is frequently being overly paranoid about average users

also, people often seem overly paranoid about China. My professor in history class tells "horror stories" how there's internet police and big brother is watching everything you do online. Spreading paranoia to average students

No need to skip. It will likely make you tired. Just walk normally to the lecture.

skipping is actually th most energy-efficient way for a human to move :)

Zanna

I'm sorry, I didn't want to annoy you

It was just easier to pretend to misunderstand than do something clever with the previous post

terdon

@Zanna That can't be true. Why? Skipping wastes energy by making you jump up on each step.

Zanna

12:06 PM

2 minutes is not long enough for my slowness to edit wittily

@jokerdino never <3

I am just annoyed by my lack of teleport privilege

@terdon Maybe I read it from some unreliable source! But, I think you are not skipping enough ;) it is amazingly easy to go fast :)

terdon

Yes, but since there's an extra upward vector added, I don't see how it can be more efficient than either running or walking.

Zanna

hmm... you can skip low to the ground?

terdon

You'll still be wasting energy on the small upwards jump though, won't you?

Zanna

I guess the distance benefit outweighs it. Like, instead of the effort of pushing the weight of your body five times, you only have to push it once. Even if that push must be harder (let's say twice as hard) it's still more efficient than having to push it five times?

terdon

nature.com/news/1998/980723/full/news980723-2.html

> In man, running is a much more energy efficient form of locomotion than skipping for the same speeds, while galloping is most energy efficient in quadrupeds. But the difference in efficiency is not only explained by the extra limbs, but also in the elastic properties of the spine, which helps to store and release elastic energy.

Hmm, maybe this is what you were thinking of:

> Surprisingly the ‘apparent efficiency’, defined as the ratio of the amount of work done for the amount of metabolic energy expended, is very similar in walking and skipping, but there the similarity ends. Skipping clearly has a much higher energy expenditure.

Zanna

so skipping is the best way to get around in a low gravity environment hahaha

@KazWolfe We have already had this discussion - it's their legal right and other than just saying "No we are doing nothing to your post" for items with decent content that the user wants to delete for an unknown reason, it would be better to have it disassociated. If you feel that strongly bring it up on meta.

Rinzwind

@UbuntuQuestionsonU&L newbie alert :-)

terdon

@Rinzwind Really? That's actually a pretty good question and one of the very few times the ubuntu tag makes sense. The directory isn't being deleted on reboot but 10 seconds after its creation. Do you know what would cause that?

If so, please post an answer! I can even move it here if necessary :P

Rinzwind

2:54 PM

@terdon No. Newbie. He is doing this himself with his service. The system itself does not delete from /var/run/ unless told to do so by a service. Only during booting there is a service that recreates /var/run.

1st thing I'd do is open syslog.

terdon

@Rinzwind That's what I thought, which is why I couldn't understand what the OP is facing. Their question suggests they're not completely clueless though. Are you sure there is no other explanation?

Ah, nope. @Rinzwind caught it all right:

I think that you were right @MarkStosberg - the process was exiting due to a code error rather than a tmpfs issue, and deleting the folder as it should have. I then got an Nginx 502, rather than catching the bug in the browser. I think there was also an error in the .service config, which was compounding things. Once I aligned the .service config with the config in this question, and fixed the Python error, things worked as expected. — geonaut 1 min ago

Rinzwind

of course I am :=DDDDD

I know my /var/run :=D

@terdon the answer is bad advice. possibly harmful too.

Lets say I make an exisiting file immutable would it survive a reboot? If not that answer is useless. If it does ... I can imagine a whole world of hurt if the file should contain newer data.

Jacob Vlijm

3:13 PM

Blub. And so should you.

terdon

@Rinzwind Can't survive reboot, surely. Not when the whole filesystem is destroyed.

Still, very pointless since that would mean the file would never be deleted so there's no point in having a runfile in the first place.

@ByteCommander well, i would offer to make it a race for who gets their desired badge first, but that kinda won't be fair, since command-line tag outweighs bash in the number of posts

Byte Commander

bash is 251

I haven't been that active for a while anyway

Trying to do a bit more again now

Serg

Yeah, I got busy with college,so not too active

I'm mostly posting stupidly - at 3 am, when some sort of question excites me. Maybe I'll pick up the pace on the weekends. I should be able to go through a bunch of questions

@Serg: I think that our colours go quite well together in the chat list. :)

user136984

When your one is slightly greyed.

user136984

Not completely bright.

Serg

Yeah， they kinda do

user136984

Although it turns out that greying my one has no effect on the colour.

user136984

:D

Or actually, maybe it's because I was talking and therefore it wasn't greyed at all so when I cursored over it it didn't change at all! :D

@ByteCommander So would you like me to change the accept or no?

Byte Commander

as you wish

Android Dev

@ByteCommander - I'll probably change it when Nvidia releases a proper fix anyway...

Byte Commander

/shrug

accept the best answer, whichever that is

Q: How to disable systemd-resolved and resolve DNS with dnsmasq?

Ubuntu 16.10+ uses systemd-resolved as DNS resolver. I prefer the setup 16.04 uses, dnsmasq as the resolver. How can I do that on 16.10+, especially on 17.04?

dns dnsmasq 17.04 systemd-resolved

since when systemd deals with dns ?

what . . .the . . .duck . . .

since 17.04

oh, hell naw

hue

It's just resolved.

I thought about doing it to my neighbor but I don't want to go to jail...

Byte Commander

@Serg you haven't seen the built-in office suite yet...

Zacharee1

@KazWolfe as in resolve-daemon or the word resolved?

Kaz Wolfe

@Zacharee1 as in the resolver daemon

It's just named systemd-resolved now.

Serg

year 2020, systemd now has Instagram client

this whole thing is absurd

systemd sounds to me like single point of failure. Find a backdoor or vulnerability in systemd and you can screw up whole lotta things which systemd shouldn't be dealing with in the first place

@NathanOsman so the chat script is failing, just in other rooms:

WebSocket connection to 'wss://sechat.quickmediasolutions.com/ws/240/146477' failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

Serg

seems to be working in this one after i reloaded the page

user136984

@TheXed The best hackers are the ones who know how not to get caught. If not hacking illegally in the first place is the way, then I guess that that works by that logic. ;P
