@WinEunuuchs2Unix noted.
 
You don't need Ritalin or ADHD you just need to play a little football or Softball and chase some pretty blonde blue eyed girls.
 
I think I get most of my vocabulary and grammar stuff from my dad since he always uses a bunch of "big" words. He likes to sound smart even when it's unnecessary.
 
Someday you may grow up to be like your Dad....hereditary.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I don't really like sports. But I do take care of my body by running a mile around my neighborhood 3 times a week and eating somewhat healthy
Eh, my dad is a coroner so I don't really wanna do that. But he is really smart.
He gets to do all the cases for Houston
Sometimes I even get to sit in court while he testifies for a case.
That's always interesting to watch.
 
@OwenHines noted on exercise, but just remember most adults wish they could be young again and do it differently.... it's your opportunity to have fun. Although I never did it when I was in grade 9 I have the luxury of doing it in the future... being a political prisoner and all that :D
 
5:04 AM
@OwenHines Ooh. That would be interesting.
 
My father is a welder , but he's good with all sorts of mechanical stuff. I personally hate cars. I'd rather take apart a computer than a car
 
Never been to Houston but spent a lot of time in Dallas/Fort Worth Airports.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix close enough :)
@Serg same
 
Funny I was taking apart cars first, then computers, then cars again and now computers again.
 
circle of life, huh ?
 
5:06 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix but you do need to be attractive.
 
I should have downvoted that root user question! It reached -3... could have gone a little lower surely... two more votes... and now my answer has +20...
 
@Zanna link?
 
@Serg more like "vicious circle" LOL... A kuna ma tatuh.
@Zanna I remember that root is not a root is a 0
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix i already regret it, just saying :P
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I don't find sports to be fun. I have a pretty small group of close friends which I love to hang out with. I find helping people out here really fun and satisfying. Along with other things such as making little programming projects and playing Overwatch :P
@Zanna, yeah you passed my answer up by a mile :P
 
5:07 AM
@KazWolfe you must have seen it... the question is on +12 now, no hope.... maybe it has to be -5 and +20 at the same time
 
@Zanna reversal candidates need a total vote of -5
 
Only 3 downvotes on it
 
I had a qusetion that keeps getting dowvoted but I can't delete it because there is an answer on it.
 
It got -3 first though before going up
 
life lesson for you @OwenHines, don't go chasing girls. you have your entire life ahead of you. High school girls are downright nasty.
Wait until you're at least 20 or so.
 
5:09 AM
Yeah, a lot of them are pretty shallow.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix if you want to delete it, you can try asking the answerer to delete? Do they have upvotes?
 
All it causes right now is drama and heartache
 
@KazWolfe He's in Junior high when they are still nice.
 
And I can promise you if you find someone who isn't, she's taken, not interested in you, or just doesn't like guys.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix sometimes
 
5:10 AM
high school sucked
 
@KazWolfe yeah, there are guys way more confident than me
I just kinda sit in the back and by the time I get enough confidence, it's already too late
 
wait, why am i talking about this.
i have zero experience on this subject lol
 
Exits room immediately haha
 
lol
 
@KazWolfe don't tell me you are in elementary school
 
5:12 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix 18-27 range is not elementary.
 
I don't know but I don't wanna hear about how any group of people en masse are nasty
 
We have something in common I'm 8 to 888 range.
 
@Zanna based on a majority of experiences, it's kinda hard not to associate. But I do keep an open mind.
 
@Zanna sometimes it's inevitable and groups of people can suck . . . collective psychology is a thing unfortunately :)
 
unless you're extremely lucky @OwenHines, or you become some ultra-popular student, you're gonna be alone in high school. Accept it and move on.
Go hang out with the Drama techs or something. They're fun.
 
5:14 AM
@OwenHines You just need to analyze less and hang out with girls you like... nature will take it's course.
 
@KazWolfe nah, he just needs to find couple of good friends. That's it. a couple is enough. Whole high school is irrelevant and overrated
 
that's another thing. if you try to get a girlfriend for the sake of a girlfriend, you're gonna have a really bad time.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix "Nature will take its course" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@KazWolfe agreed. The only time I even try is if I really do like them
 
@Serg Thank you. I just roll my eyes every time someone says "high school was the best time of [their] life"
 
It was for me.
 
5:16 AM
I'm really leaving, I really don't wanna hear it haha I'll get breakfast
 
Is it sad that a majority of my rep comes from grammar correction :P
 
but do try to find your "clique" for lack of a better term.
 
But then again, I was homeschooled.
 
There will be people who you will enjoy the company of.
Some of these may incidentally be girls.
 
@Zanna breakfast at 11:16pm? You must be in England.
 
5:16 AM
Don't ruin a good friendship seeking something more, either.
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Correct.
 
@KazWolfe spoken like a true shewolf... I mean him / his / he / it.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix stop please.
it gets annoying at a certain point.
 
@KazWolfe Sorry I thought it was funny.
 
soo
 
it is to a point, which you're coming close to
either way, moving on
you were saying something @OwenHines?
 
5:18 AM
Lemme do some quick calculations on rep % from grammar corrections
 
I rejected a couple of your grammar corrections Owen, they were getting annoying.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Aww no more +2 rep
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Do you suggest I stop?
 
@OwenHines 23% rep came from edits, about
 
There is someone who is worse...she's at 1948 now I rejected tons of hers but now I'm thinking of accepting them all so she hits 2000 and doesn't get any more points for editing.
 
oh god
do i need to stalk the edit queue again
 
5:21 AM
@KazWolfe I wish you did and then my queue would be empty :)
 
@KazWolfe how did I add commands?
 
the "i also want to share with you..." part
 
@KazWolfe, ohhh right
Whoops
Won't do it again, sorry
 
don't alter what the post is saying, alter how it's said.
 
5:23 AM
don't add a question mark after a title.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix who is she?
 
(unless you have a really really good reason to alter what the post is saying, you'll need to use your judgement/the review queue to aid you)
 
@Anwar Lorenzo or Nicole or something like that.
 
@OwenHines it's okay, now you know :D
 
LorenzoNicola?
 
5:25 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix why were you rejecting?
 
@KazWolfe yeah usually I just ask for additional info in the comments and once they add it then I edit away
 
@Anwar She was like the David Cole Grammar Police
 
do you have any example?
 
5:26 AM
@KazWolfe great now she is 2k I won't see anymore grammar corrections from her because she can't make 2 points happy dance
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix she's not 2k
it's rounding up
 
@KazWolfe well go find some edits of hers and vote her up damn it!!!
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix please don't reject good edits. Like that. (Paging @Seth @terdon because user trends)
Also, review on the post, not the user.
 
Now I feel bad about my little edits :(
 
@KazWolfe Last night when Anwar and Rinzwald were here they told me to reject minor edits.
 
5:27 AM
@OwenHines They're okay as long as they improve the post
 
Editing is fine if that improves the post.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Minor trivial edits that make zero difference.
These edits are small, but they're still beneficial.
 
@KazWolfe And that's what we are talking about, correcting grammar changing "Im" to "Im" and adding a question mark.
 
Those are beneficial edits and should be accepted
 
@OwenHines feel free to edit more.
 
5:29 AM
Yeah, @OwenHines, i'm looking at your edits and they're good. Keep it up! :D
 
@KazWolfe, alright. Currently I'm editing one as well.
 
@Kaz, I could make 40,000 points doing that to 200,000 questions with a "spellbot" modeled after a "wolfbot" how would you like to have that stuffed up your review queue?
 
Expect that to be in the queue soon
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix only a question mark was too minor.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix You can make a max of 2000 points, and you can only have 5 edits pending at any given time.
 
5:30 AM
^ that
 
And if you do that, you can guarantee that you'll get banned. Spelling edits are beneficial.
 
2000 rep actually.
 
@Anwar, how many questions have typo's like "Im" instead of "I'm"?
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix A lot, and we're not concerned about them. If someone fixes it, great. We're not gonna reject them, but they're not necessary either.
The post you rejected also removed the word "Hi", which is a good edit.
 
@KazWolfe but you don't have to read the review queue littered with them.
 
5:32 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix I don't have the stat. But if a question has several of them and you correct all those, it's good.
 
^
If there's just one and it goes to the queue, we use the "accept and improve" button.
or just the accept button
that doesn't really fall under a bad edit, so there's no reason to reject

OK fine.. I'll just approve all those spelling corrections until they hit 2K and then they'll give up and try to answer a question for once in their life.
 
@OwenHines, the rule with editing is basically don't alter what the post is saying, and always assume commands are correct.
 
@KazWolfe, right. That's what the comment section is for
 
5:33 AM
Unless you're 500% certain a command is wrong, don't touch it. Leave a comment instead.
 
@KazWolfe There's another edit for you guys in the queue :)
 
oh. I actually came here to ask a little help :)
 
help is our middle name... ask away
 
There was a question recently about changing the color value of RGB component of the display separately. I need to find that one
It was asked about a month ago i think
 
the answer is between 1 and 256
 
5:38 AM
@Anwar anything else?
tags, maybe?
 
can't remember much. the question was a bit long.
 
@OwenHines thank you :) no, that isn't. the question had no answer.
 
Nice link though @OwenHines I enjoyed that one.
 
Yeah, it seemed kinda interesting
 
5:41 AM
anyway, don't waste time if you haven't seen that one already. I thought some of you might remember seeing that.
 
meh, I joined a week ago so no help here :/

Q: Change screen settings? (Confusing gnome color management settings on Ubuntu 14.04)

cluelessMy screen on my Sony Vaio svt141190x is displaying very washed out colours and I meant to adjust them. I have been told I could do this via the gnome color manager that I can access via the settings menu. Right now, this is what I'm seeing: Sony SVT141190X - Uncalibrated - HP E201 - Not speci...

? @Anwar
 
@KazWolfe Oh, on the rejected edit earlier for adding code. You know that all the stuff I added was from what the OP said in a comment below that answer, right?
 
still, OP should add it
unless OP abandoned the post
 
Alright
 
5:43 AM
@KazWolfe Thank you :). But this isn't.
 
@Anwar okay, that's the only thing search found
 
but very close

Q: xcalib only works upon restarting computer

Alex KadahI'm running Ubuntu Gnome 16.04.1 LTS on a Dell XPS 13 laptop. After installing xcalib, running "xcalib -i -a" won't invert colors initially; instead, it only works when I set my laptop to sleep then turn it on again. The reverse is also true, making color inversion a real hassle. There also aren'...

oh sorry
 
There I just approved a grammar correction and a correction by @OwenHines.
 
5:45 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix was it painful

Q: ICC color profile only loads after switching graphics mode?

EastingSome time ago I installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my Dell XPS15 laptop. I've loaded an .icm profile, but it only works 50% percent of the time... I've also noticed now that switching it within the color manager does not seem to be working. (It did before) However, when plugging in an external display, t...

?
those are the only other two ones
 
yawns well it's almost midnight time to say goodnight. @OwenHines almost 1am where you are you should be going to bed....Grade 9 comes early.
 
unfortunately no :(
but Thank you again.
 
@WinEunuuchs2Unix, yeah I'm gonna go. Thanks for the good talk
 
5:47 AM
@WinEunuuchs2Unix GN! (I'm lazy :D)
 
Thanks all for the suggestions/advice and have a good night
 
see if you can find something playing around with that

6:41 AM
well, let's get 80 more rep today.
 
@KazWolfe hi
 
hmm can I tell scp to copy files over that are NOT in a filelist?
 
I don't think you can.
 
I was thinking the answer to that Q is in man rsync somewhere, but I'm too lazy for that
 
@Zanna it is not in there ;-)
so it will be something elaborate using grep+xargI assume :P
 
7:02 AM
well we can't use wildcards/regex since their filenames are evidently arbitrary?
 
ah well. he'll have to deal with it :=D
 
or she
 
@Rinzwind it is in there ;-)
 
@KazWolfe haha good to know!
 
@KazWolfe nope >:)
 
7:07 AM
@Rinzwind yep >:)
 
not unless you prove it >:)
 
        --exclude-from=FILE     read exclude patterns from FILE
 
thanks >:-D
 
takes the same args per-line as --exclude does

A: Copy a folder with special requirement

Kaz WolfeIf you can use rsync, you can grab all files from a folder, excluding a certain list using this command: rsync -a --exclude-from=path/to/excludes.txt myuser@myserver:/path/to/files/ . Be sure that path/to/excludes.txt is a text file like so: abc.conf rfc.conf moo.conf cat.conf ... Otherwise...

you were saying?
>:D
all's fair in rep and war.
 
oh I added it to mine >:)
 
7:10 AM
timeline doesn't lie
 
and you did NOT answer his comment :+)
he said scp
 
also your command is wrong.
just saying <3
 
"If you can use rsync"
and if he now tells you he can't?
 
then a decent amount of your answer is also invalid
 
@KazWolfe is that file local or remote ?
 
7:11 AM
@Serg excludes are local
 
soooo now I should just downvote you hmm?
 
aha, so excludes.txt is local . . . You might want to add that to the answer @KazWolfe
 
hehehe
but like I said: copy them all over and delete them locally is a lot less hassle :P
 
tut tut rinz.
your commands have a fatal flaw.
 
O_o
 
7:13 AM
@Rinzwind can be done, but what if those files are huge ?
 
I did most from memory :X
@Serg tar them :P
 
my question in android enthauthists got closed
 
plus, my post is two minutes newer than yours. plagiarism!
 
as unclear
and I edited it
I asked the closer to reopen it
still closed...
 
Goodnight.
 
7:14 AM
@NathanOsman night
 
@KazWolfe in 1 hour nobody will notice. all they see is my massive amount of rep and your miserely 13k and go: oh rinzwind Ill upvote you.
 
hmmmm. why do i note have 40 votes recorded today.
 
@NathanOsman sleep well :-)
 
1:14 AM . . . . I should be going to bed. Have not done any homework( as usual ) and generally am behind, but at least I figured out how to deal with single non-periodic pulse, and sort of with pulse trains
 
@KazWolfe 215 yesterday for me >:)
 
7:15 AM
why do I only have 17 downvotes
 
or they'll realize "rinzwind's commands don't work! kaz is better, he gets the goat"
@Rinzwind not incoming, outgoing.
 
Oh, one more thing.
 
yes boss? >:)
 
@Zacharee1 It's a configurable setting and you saw the defaults.
So clearly the solution is to change the defaults.
Maybe just use "thing1" and "thing2" as examples.
Anyway, goodnight for real this time :D
 
and here I thought he'd come with something brilliant :P
 
7:17 AM
goodnight boss
 
there deleted it @KazWolfe >:-D
 
are you cheating for some reason
you're cheating for some reason
well, now i want to delete mine too @Rinzwind
 
:D
 
yolo.
either way, @Rinzwind, i think your bottom two rsync commands have their order inverted.
why do i not have undelete buttons on others' answers
KazWolfe.run has encoutered a fatal error: ENERGY_LEVEL_EQUAL_TO_OR_BELOW_ZERO. KazWolfe.run has shut down for its own safety.

I am currently running Kali Linux using Vbox. Alright, long story short, my VBOXADDITIONS is (read only?) Anyhow, it says Write protect...

"I have a mid term exam for my Cyber Security and Network Systems class "

and that :+)

Good Monday to you all.
 
morning there @Arronical :)
how's things?
 
@Zanna Well I spilled coffee granules all over the floor to start my day off, so I think I'll go with 'improving' as my answer. How about you? Good weekend?
 
@Zanna pick a number, 1 to 3
 
9:32 AM
@Serg 3
@Arronical yeah, great weekend thanks... I was working, but I enjoyed that, everything nice here :)
 
i guess that's a fate . . . kaz picked the same thing . . .
 
@Zanna Glad to hear it, working doing tutoring?

Q: Excel, VirtualBox and Python

When i collect data in excel i want to work with it by using Python but i dont want to use Python under windows on...

 
9:48 AM
@Arronical yeah, I got to do some literature work, my favourite
 
@Zanna Sweet, you tutor in a range of subjects then?
 
@Serg well 3 is a nice number... is that the end of it or you were going to do something else with it?
@Arronical yeah all kinds of stuff, ever expanding :)
 
@Zanna I tutored a lad for GCSE maths once, helped him improve from a predicted D up to the B he needed for his IT apprenticeship. It gave me a renewed appreciation for anyone who teaches.
 
yeah, that's the end of it pretty much
 
@Arronical haha I'm sure you did an excellent job... but some students are easier to help than others... the best are the motivated ones
 
10:00 AM
@Zanna He wasn't the most motivated, but was a decent chap, appreciated that his mum was shelling out cash, and he had a concrete aim for after exams. Sometimes he really just wanted to carry on playing FIFA though! I couldn't get cross though as I still sort of remember being that age!
 
10:22 AM
hehe yeah teens have their things and I am cool with that :) they are people too, gets forgotten...
 
@JourneymanGeek I've been rumbled! I'm such a fake adult!
 
10:40 AM
i don't wanna adult today
 
@Serg Snap!
 
@Arronical snap package ? sorry, don't know hiw to make those yet :)

Bah dumm tss! Non-adulting in full effect!
 
By the way, @Serg, if ever you have any contact with Greeks or have to send your repo to a Greek or anything like that, I suggest you rename it : translate.google.com/#el/en/kolo

:)
 
@terdon lol
 
What's worse, the idiom for "shitty" or "shoddy" in Greek is to say something is "of the ass", making the repo name particularly untrustworthy to those who speak the language :)
 
11:09 AM
oh no hahahaha
 
@L.D.James: Hi! :)
Yeah, like using Greek letters to obfuscate banned words like "Fμçk" confuses the hell out of @terdon too!
Especially as "μ" is actually an "m"
@L.D.James: Hey man...
 
isn't that mew?
 
How are you?

I'm doing fine. How are you doing?
 
Taking a break from work: saw your message(s) to me, decided to drop in here.
You should delete all of your comments except the first one here as well as it looks like you;re talking to yourself.
 
You told me to delete the message explaining to the user the procedures for SE.
 
Well, you can leave that one.
 
I personally consider the message important to a new user.
 
@Fabby it also means micro...

I just said that I edit them out end leave a comment in the edit field that it's not appropriate to do that

Great. The user might not come back, or it might take a year of so for him to visit again.
 
:D True!
Add a smiley to your text next time...
 
He appears to have a wrong impression about how forums work. So when and if he does return, at least he will have something in his inbox.
 
True, but now it also looks like you're an old nagging fart! ;-)
I'm the old nagging fart around here! :D
So up to you to leave it in or not, but next time:
1/ edit it out before leaving the comment
 
11:18 AM
I understand how it looks... and I am Old... Just curious. How did you know I was old.
 
@Fabby sssh don't mention ageing ;)
 
2/ Add a smiley to your comment.
@L.D.James What decade are you in?
@Takkat :D :D :D
 
As far as decade... I feel ageless.
I believe I blend in all of them.
 
@JourneymanGeek Micrometer: μm
@L.D.James :D Good! Keep it that way!
 
11:19 AM
OK, conference call coming up in 10 minutes!
 
I try to share my experience whereever I happen to be. I believe I can bond with most generations.
 
@L.D.James there was a famous singer (in Germany) who made a song about your age stating that life will only start at that age \o/
 
I'm outta here!
 
I leave that as an exercise to the insulter to what fμ... means
 
That's just the point: it doesn't mean anything: It only means what the reader reads into it! ;-)
I'm out before the boss gets annoyed.

@Takkat Not familiar with the song, but agree with the concept.
 
@L.D.James I hope I will too in 11 years time.
