Folks reading back - I apologised to Zacharee1 in the other room following up on what I said earlier and am now really ashamed of saying chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/33093610#33093610

We can humbly suggest pilot to use Skip button more frequently

I thought I already did that

then we're done

yeah :)

This really is unexplainable. If a person is not comfortable with reviewing 3 years old question he/she can just push the button. How can that become so hard? Or Am I missing some other points?

I feel the same, but did you see answer from Win to our meta post? Says he feels a lot of pressure (from Zach) to "get the queue down"

Saw that. No need to feel pressure. Also we don't need to diminish the queue. Yes, it is good if we can review it. But making a group of closers and then targeting to close questions is not within the objective of AU. That can be harmful as well

We need independent reviewers.

yeah I agree with everything you just said

Also on other day, Zach was asking for 10k users to use the tools to check questions with 4 CVs and closing them. This is not what that tool was given for imo.

what do you think it's for?

I disagreed with some of the CVs I found there

I wanted to go to them in the queue to kick them out by editing... but I see there's a reason we cannot do that - it would be unilateral

That tool is for inspecting. You should vote to leave a question open even if it has 4 CVs, If you believe the CVs are not making sense.

Besides we're sending very few questions to the review queue.

Yeah as I told Byte in my comment - maybe I should edit the post with what I said in that comment

We can workaround this I think.

@Zanna which comment?

@Anwar sure I agree with that completely

Yes. that can be put into the post

I'm going to edit it now...

edited

Anyway, I don't think there is a big problem but I wanted to apologise to Zach for blaming people's hostility to our work on him in an undermining way

what did you say to him actually?

my comment on Win's answer to our post and talking about him in here with @edwinksl and in the other room here chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/33089363#33089363

I have reservations about what he's doing (same as you)

but I didn't express them in an appropriate way in any of those places. I was feeling attacked and I put blame on him unfairly. He actually supported us in response to what Win said earlier in the room

thanks for your comment on win's post

@Zanna I'm happy when the OP says he upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04 to prevent his question from being closed as off topic. I'm sad when the OP edits his question and changes Linux Mint to Ubuntu. It may not make any difference, but it feels different to me.

@karel I am not sure what to do in those cases, but I prefer not to second guess OP - if they decided they want to deal with the difference, then I prefer to believe them and answer the Q as if it is really about Ubuntu. Of course, there are problems if they are using Mint - the answers might not work for OP - but we are not all about OP, and answers may by verified by others and be used by them.

So I am uncertain

because it is bad when OP says it doesn't work, creates doubt and a mess and stress for people trying to do good work

A possible source of an accepted answer that doesn't work in Ubuntu makes me sad.

hmm yes that's another problem that could happen.

I have a bias towards believing what people say: I hate it when folks don't believe me, it hurts my heart

check the comment on the card. I think the q should stay trello.com/c/n27Hk4B5/723-grub-rescue-no-such-device-found

@Anwar I totally see your point there... but damn, seems like a terrible question to me

oh. let me read the q again

it's a click of a button to move an answer to the question body haha.

lol. The mod re-added the answer which I already added

yeah, don't edit it in yourself because mods have tools to do it the easy way

I wasn't aware of it.

I always do it myself, edit so it's integrated properly, and leave a comment on the thing I flagged saying "I have edited this into the question"

it should go now

nice

i think this is actually a dupe of this

what do you think?

yeah, good call

but I hate sending it to queue

Got the hint.

hmm I voted

I supported

you hate because of all the drama? it was just my bad

also upvoted target

mmm...yes. partially for that. I'm trying to solve problem without sending to queue (when we can)

@Anwar people are angry...

I see... You're suggesting not to sent to the queue?

No, I was talking about the 2 deleted answers in the master question.

oh. got it :)

I didn't scroll to those answers before

a "no fix" imo. or upvote the OPs answer? askubuntu.com/questions/345699/…

hmmm... idk :(

if you think that is reproducible then maybe we can upvote as "it's not possible"

maybe dupe to this? askubuntu.com/questions/112512/…

strange solution.. but works

voted... if there were a dupe guru badge, you'd have earned it...

@Anwar Hmm, it is not about installing Ubuntu on NTFS, is it?

OPs answer hints he was trying to have it installed in NTFS.

@Zanna idk. but it was surely dino around '12

@Anwar I read it as OP trying to access partitions that are NTFS but they are not visible in Ubuntu.

So, I don't know what to do and going to leave it as it is for people who know better.

I think I understood their problem now

It's not a dupe. They installed ubuntu using wubi on the second disk giving 30GB space

the other space was left unallocated and thus wasn't shown.

@Zanna I've retracted the CV. terrible mistake

An answer can be added to this as a solution (works most of the time) but OP can't verify it askubuntu.com/questions/341221/…

the question is solved (indicated in ubuntu forum) but it is unclear how

Ooh oops. Retracted. Glad I peeked in here

and I CVed this finally. Because OP left searching solution and instead opted for manually installing theme from gnome-theme.org

Hmm I can't think, I'll come and look when my mind is working again

this is a windows question askubuntu.com/questions/341468/… both of the answers are also providing solution for windows

Voted

Seems no repro, or is recreating the RAID enough to make an answer? askubuntu.com/questions/359485/…

bbt.

Goodnight :)
