6:04 PM
joining in Hi all
 
hi
 
you seemed busy the whole day
 
hello @Takkat
 
O/o/./
(my ant on the right side)
 
haha
 
6:11 PM
@Takkat me?
i was busy building new backlog :D
 
at least I havent heard of you :P
building new backlogs sounds worse than chasing absorbers ;)
 
haha
goes to YouTube, blasts some Deadmau5
 
well, i'll do double the work tomorrow and it's all good. maybe.
 
do double get twice - that's at my work
 
Is this out of place?

Q: Best webpage editor for Ubuntu.

DalexLI need to make just plain HTML, JavaScript, and CSS pages. The thing that keeps me away from a simple text editor is because there is no native method for "Master Pages". I was hoping there would be some kind of HTML editor for Ubuntu that would support a simple method to incorporate just a sim...

 
6:14 PM
goes to YouTube, blasts some Schubert :D
 
:)
 
Schubert? Got a link? I've never listened to him/her/them
 
they sure love not getting beaten :D
 
yawn sup people
 
@htorque hah :D
 
6:22 PM
that's inspired by Schubert / Trance
 
Yeah trance :D
adds to techno playlist
 
head explodes
 
how depressing ;-)
 
(doesn't know if that is better or worse)
 
speaking of techno...
 
6:24 PM
Sorry but these contrasts make life worth living!
 
loads up his techno playlist at full blast, sets it to continuous repeat
 
isn't that bach?
(me no classics freak)
 
Imagine you discover the beauty of Schubert's music by a techno approach...
 
I love Classical music as well
 
I thought the Ave Maria was Schubert - but may be wrong (is not educated)
 
6:25 PM
I have a very diversified taste in music...
Welcome to the chat @badp!
 
For me classical: Debussy!!! <3
 
@Takkat I like Debussy as well
 
yeah, until they used it in that commercial (nokia?)
 
I also enjoy Bach, Handel, and a couple others
 
6:27 PM
"
Unfortunately, this video is not available in Germany because it may contain music for which GEMA has not granted the respective music rights." :D
 
Lol not saying "Hi, you must be new" sort of welcome just saying hi
@htorque seriously?!?! Dang that sucks cause it's a rad song
 
:D
 
And Hallo :D
Yes, the cucumber does speak a tiny bit of German
 
and yes, the cucumber is vulnerable to fire throws fire at the cucumber
 
das ist wunderbar, ja (advantage: German)
 
6:29 PM
dodges fire with a super roll, whips out DE and blasts @TheEvilPhoenix
 
evades, then activates UBER EXPLOSION OF THE UNIVERSE
 
you seem to be awfully edgy these last few weeks @TheEvilPhoenix
 
@StefanoPalazzo indeed, might be the fact that i've been in a state of high stress every day the past few weeks :/
 
always setting things alight, throwing stuff
you should take a vacation
 
indeed
my vacation is scheduled in august
 
6:31 PM
Hijacks a Goa'uld mothership and jumps to new galaxy with the team
 
i think what i need is a week's worth of sleep :P
and probably caffeine detox :P
 
@TheEvilPhoenix yeah caffeine can cause issues if over done :(
 
I only know due to personal experience
I one had a time where I went to work (Night shift) hadn't slept much the day before, only like 5 hours or so then was up for the next two days with no rest...
 
6:35 PM
Part of those two days was because I had a lovely monster shot on the second day
That kept me up till the third day
Shakes and all...
man that was bad
 
what is a monster shot?
 
Ok do you know what Monster is?
 
dude, you dont know about "Monster" energy shots?
HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW?!?!?
 
oh I see now :D
 
ITS THE SOURCE OF ALL ENERGY!!!!!!
 
6:36 PM
seconds @TheEvilPhoenix 's comment
 
has it got electrolytes?
 
no, but its got pure energy infused in it :P
 
Screw electrolytes, it's got ginseng in it
 
drink some, you'll be up for like 3 days :P
w00t i got something starred again xD
 
I can drink a monster can and go to bed like an hour later
It's the monster shot that'll do ya in
 
6:37 PM
mhm
 
@TheEvilPhoenix do you like the green monster the most? I prefer the Monster Assault myself
Not as sweet but nice and bitter :D
And I like the Monster lemonade one
Oh and the monster java :D
 
@zkriesse i havent touched one of those things since it kept me up for 3 days straight during exam week
i subsequently crashed on the 4th day
literally blacked out
 
Windows build of JS Studio has been successful!
3
 
for like 18 hours
 
@TheEvilPhoenix Monster shot?
 
6:39 PM
@GeorgeEdison proof or it never happened.
 
@GeorgeEdison WOO
 
@zkriesse both (there are two exam weeks :P)
 
^---- teh proofz
 
doesn't run on ubuntu
>:(!
 
6:40 PM
@zkriesse the fact that i blacked out means that my brain literally imploded
 
@htorque What doesn't?
 
Ikes
 
the windows build :P
 
@GeorgeEdison THATS A WINDOWS FILE
 
@GeorgeEdison gimme the ubuntu version, i want screenshots showing the windows build occurred, but i want the linux/ubuntu verson, and i want it now
 
6:40 PM
YUCKY
 
WINDOWS????? BLASPHEMER!
 
@TheEvilPhoenix AGREED!
LOL
I have to star that im' sorry
 
too hilarious not to star
 
@TheEvilPhoenix Wha...? What did you expect from a Windows build... an iPhone app?
 
6:41 PM
@zkriesse similar statements have been starred in the past (esp. if I made them)
 
@GeorgeEdison YES
Man you guys are fun
:P
 
@GeorgeEdison no i expected exploitable executable code that i could implode.
 
Qt doesn't have Objective-C bindings. So it's not going to happen.
 
oh and screenshots saying the build worked
 
LOLZ
 
6:42 PM
Forget I brought it up...
 
i shall not!
it has forever been starred :P
 
Wrong!
 
LOL

Windows build of JS Studio has been successful!
 
Oh, that one... I thought you meant your comment.
 
6:43 PM
it has been forever starred that you have blasphemed against the linux gods
 
Those stars are gone :P
 
LOL
 
@zkriesse You sure laugh a lot...
 
This is a great one
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yisiPJpZIEs
 
abusing your powers, eh?! :-)
 
6:44 PM
Indeed I find humour in many things
 
vote of no confidence anyone? :PPP
 
@StefanoPalazzo Abusing? After what they said to me?
4 mins ago, by The Evil Phoenix
WINDOWS????? BLASPHEMER!
 
@GeorgeEdison remember, you blasphemed
 
Mad Ducky!! Beware of angry ducks, they bite :D
 
6:45 PM
yeah you're right
 
high fives @TheEvilPhoenix
 
@TheEvilPhoenix Erm... this conversation is ridiculously off-topic.
Can we please stop?
 
Room description: General discussion around Ubuntu & Ask Ubuntu. Though typically off-topic but relevant conversation
sure
 
Recover deleted data with rm -rf ? http://bit.ly/pp0fNv #wubi
 
"... but relevant conversation ..." Notice the 'relevant' part.
 
6:45 PM
goes back to destroying windows byte-by-byte
 
I completely forgot how much I despise trance :P
 
i thought i answered that, @Charlie
 
@StefanoPalazzo remind me to post some more links of it for ya then :P
Just kidding i'd never do that
 
actually... that would work... arms rm -rf /windows/
 
:D nice
 
6:49 PM
youtube.com/watch?v=qLVQSzkjMFI ← this is fairly well done
and some proper music! yells at cloud
 
this is proper music!!!
 
lulz
 
anybody who doesn't like it is wrong!
 
anybody who doesn't like techno is wrong.
what now?
 
6:52 PM
lol want some techno song links phoenix? curious
 
@zkriesse only if you highlight me for each link
since i dont keep local logs on this system
 
I might be able to acquiesce to your request....
 
@TheEvilPhoenix can't be - that would mean I'd be fallible

A: Mount Blackberry Pearl as USB Mass Storage Device

zkriesseI would take a look at this link, seems to hold a wealth of information concerning your issue, most likely will hold the answer you seek :) Sync You Blackberry on Ubuntu Linux

@zkriesse they don't want sync. They want usb-stick-like usability
 
6:54 PM
Argh...
 
mh. I have a storm, it just mounted as a usb device, without any configuration
it's a pretty good paperweight now
 
Might be the type of phone is the issue?
 
Personally I'm just going to get an iPhone eventually
 
@StefanoPalazzo so you broke the device xD
 
6:55 PM
Till then I use skype
 
no, it's just rubbish :-)
 
Most blackberry's are it seems
 
android devices arent bad though
 
My uncle threw his out the window once from a moving car
 
6:56 PM
I replaced it with a nokia C5-00, which is brilliant
 
they're far better
 
brb ladies/gents
 
:)
in my defence: the blackberry storm was a gift. It's really horrible - the worst phone I ever had (and the most expensive one at the same time)
@TheEvilPhoenix argh :D
 
but the touchscreen was just perfect. It's mounted like a button, so when you hit something on the screen it physically clicks
that was really nice
 
6:58 PM
take your pick :P
:P
 
(the Nokia C5, by the way, runs Python)
which is why I bought it.
 
ORLY?????
i want
 
it forgets my telephone numbers, but I still <3 it
 
either that or an Android device which I can put Ubuntu on :P
 
7:01 PM
hah
 
how cool is that :D
 
it works too, there is quite a nice API for things like the GPS
obviously not good enough for anything serious, but a fantastic toy
 
indeed
only an hour and 10 minutes before my day is over
what a BORING day
 
@TheEvilPhoenix as an american, maybe you can help me out with something:
 
7:04 PM
@zkriesse s/ eh?/, eh?/
@Stefano?
 
what are the primary cities people usually associate with eastern, mountain, central, and pacific time? (I'm replicating google's "time in washington" feature)
 
eastern: New York, Washington DC, Philadelphia
pacific: los angeles (California), probly some other cities
couldnt tell ya the others :P
 
yeah the two middle ones are confusing me a bit :)
 
then there's additional time zones
like the Alaskan time zone
and Hawaiian time zone
 
there seem to be millions of them :(
 
7:06 PM
which do not conform to eastern, mountain, central, or pacific
 
and no good way to map cities to them
 
mhm
@StefanoPalazzo you can probably find a map of cities and time zones :P
 
what I'd really like is a huge list of cities and their time zones, even small cities
 
definitely not a 100% complete list
but pretty freaking huge
 
Indeed
 
7:08 PM
oh that's pretty good
 
@StefanoPalazzo you owe me +5 rep somewhere :P
 
unfortunately not free as in freedom :\
 
for taking the time to google it
lol i kid
lol +5 :P
 
I'd never do that! I vote based on merit alone :)
 
7:09 PM
(nice question by the way)
 
thanks
and the guy answered it from the general perspective
now i need to find out whether i can add a keyserver to the ubuntu keyservers :P
shrugs
 
Oooh that's fun
And easy
 
i'll do that when i'm not crazy busy XD
 
the guy who answered it works for canonical, interestingly
 
I actually gave an Ubuntu Classroom Session on that for Ubuntu Open Week with the Ubuntu Classroom team
 
7:11 PM
:P
 
@zkriesse presumably you know about the Ask Ubuntu classroom?
13
Q: What is the Ask Ubuntu Classroom and how can I participate?

Stefano PalazzoWhat? The Ask Ubuntu classroom is a series of free sessions where an Expert teaches attendees some of their skills in a variety of fields. Where? The sessions are going to be held in the Classroom on Ask Ubuntu Chat When? This post is to organise the calendar. If you want to hold a session, ...

 
WE WANT YOU
 
I know of it, haven't really delved into it as of yet though
 
you've failed then
because i gave a wonderful 2.5 hour double-session on packaging :p
 
@TheEvilPhoenix That I'm still reading through :)
 
@Marco :P
 
@zkriesse very cool
 
@StefanoPalazzo aye thanke
 
@MarcoCeppi are you understanding it? :P
i tried to keep it concise and to the point, but :P
 
7:14 PM
I'll give a 20 minute talk on AppIndicators and LibNotify I think
just as soon as I figure out a good date. It's very easy and productive stuff
 
@TheEvilPhoenix Yes, I've done RPM/Yum packaging before so most of this makes sense, just a different language
 
@MarcoCeppi :P
@MarcoCeppi i hope it helps :P
@MarcoCeppi additional info is found on the Ubuntu packaging guide
on the wiki
 
I'm sure it will, but right now I've got to try and hot-wire a NAS
 
Hmm wiki...
/me loves wiki
 
stop using IRC commands
they dont work here :p
@MarcoCeppi i feel sorry for ya :P
 
7:17 PM
Doesn't mean I cant use it
It gets the point across and it's understandable...
 
only 25 more rep, and i'll be 75% of the way to the required rep for editing w/o peer approval :P
 
I need like, a bazillion rep for that haha
 
haha
yeah ya do
he who has only 154 rep XD
 
Oh hush
I'll get there...in a quadrillion years
 
:P
i got to over 1k rep very quickly
by asking good questions and giving answers
 
7:20 PM
indeed
 
my flag weight, on the other hand, was a different matter... i think i got that to over 500 in like what, two weeks?
:P
 
I"m attempting to get there!
 
@zkriesse i am ruthless, btw. if your answer is an answer but won't solve their issue, </downvote>
@zkriesse on the other hand, if your answer isnt even an answer... </flag>
</ruthless>
 
I would be the same way
 
granted i have enough rep to actually downvote and not be greatly affected in terms of rep
 
7:22 PM
I try to not answer questions I know nothing about...and I try to research and learn about them if I know nothing...that way I might learn something in the process
 
mhm
although when i know absolutely nothing and i dont want to google it for myself, i post here
and thus others benefit from the answers as well
 
:)
I agree with that as well
 
such as my SKS keyserver question
2
Q: Configuring SKS to sync with other KeyServers

The Evil PhoenixIs there a procedure that needs to be followed in order to get an SKS keyserver to sync with other keyservers (specifically, Ubuntu's keyservers)? If so, what is that process?

@Marco or @StefanoPalazzo is this worth marking as ?
1
Q: @Tag keeps vanishing

psusiI posted a reply to Russ in this thread: How to recover deleted files? When I did so, I began it with "@Russ, " to tag him. When I posted the comment though, the tag vanished. I tried several times to edit the comment to put the tag back and it keeps removing it. What gives?

 
@TheEvilPhoenix yes indeed
I forgot :(
 
you should tag it then :P
and can someone answer this?
2
Q: What is the purpose of two topics in one tag: windows

The Evil PhoenixI am curious. Why does the windows tag cover both the Windows OS as well as application windows? shouldn't those be two separate tags, i.e. windows-os and application-windows or something?

yes, i realize i'm impatient
oh god
i just looked at the time
and it says 3:33
o.o
the time for EVIL is at hand
>:)
 
7:42 PM
and here we are again: pulseaudio at 100% load
 
and i still lol at when my rep was showing as 2666, and @Roland or whoever it was said "You really are evil"
 
o noes: not again pulseaudio eating all up :(
 
@Takkat your grammar is atrocious - try saying this: "Oh no! Not PulseAudio eating up all the resources, again!"
 
Good [insert-time-of-day-here].
 
lies
it is not evening
it is late afternoon :P
 
7:47 PM
we have a total eclipse of the sun then
 
@OctavianDamiean s/time/time-of-day/
:P
 
Got the NAS working there was much rejoicing
 
w00t!
I FOUND SOMETHING DESERVING OF THE NOT AN ANSWER FLAG!!!
</flagged>
 
8:04 PM
pulseaudio at 100% load again... GO HOME!
 
So, I've got a samba directory I mounted via smb://host/mount/ and I'm trying to rsync crap into it. However, it's doesn't have a mount point. Any ideas other than creating an fstab entry for it?
 
have you had a look at ~/.gvfs?
 
@htorque Brilliant, I forgot that gets stuck in there
Thanks
 
:-)
 
8:20 PM
Is unity 2D a shell like 3D or just a launcher more like AWN/Docky?
 
yeah, it's a shell
uhm, without the GNOME 3 panel :D
sorry ;)
 
@htorque Just sneeked in there!!
6
Q: How do I restart Unity 2D

typeAs per How do I restart Unity? But I guess unity --replace would start the 3D variant.

I thought if you just killed all unity-2d launcher it would auto restart don't need to --replace
Like gnome panel in yeh oldee Ubuntu
 
I like the old gnome panel(s)
 
I wonder if there is a multi-threaded rsync because that would be awesome
 
@zkriesse always got rid of one to max out vertical space :)
 
8:28 PM
I usually deleted the bottom one
 
@Allan panel and launcher do restart
not sure about /usr/bin/unity-2d-places, /usr/lib/unity-place-applications/unity-applications-daemon, and /usr/lib/unity-place-files/unity-files-daemon
 
@Allan no need to kill just run and they restart (it's like in 3D)
 
but killall is more fun >:D
 
@htorque With Fire
 
and I am wrong as always
 
8:33 PM
> killall --with-fire
 
they seem to restart but I just checked: 2 pids
So they are not killed when executed
1 min ago, by htorque
but killall is more fun >:D
 
3
 
Lolz... who's that? :P
 
Even @JorgeCastro recommends the use of fire
 
but not for Unity :P
 
8:41 PM
@Takkat Not unless some one makes a crap wiki page for it
 
true that - noone would dare to do that :)
 
lol, awesome clip
 
8:58 PM
time to say good night - cu
 
@Allan again?!?!?! get over it
