I have a suggestion: After a certain set amount of time automatically mark the question with the most upvotes as the accepted answer. Many of us have experienced this: You answer a question posted by someone with 1 reputation. They leave a comment thanking you for solving their problem. You respo...
I stopped falling for the "You program in xyz? pfftttt" i mean, it cant be as bad as assembler. And truth be told, i envy those peeps. Thats heady stuff to know.

Should a website that keeps track of 'Breadcrumbs'hierarchical link system need to provide a back button, or similar means of returning to the parent page on each 'subpage'.

Here is my main page

use 1.9.3 for everything that uses Rack (which octopress uses) because the speed/performance increases are tremendous, and the few things that 1.9.3 broke compared to 1.9.2 are simple enough to fix (but nobody uses them anyway so its all good)
then, I run rake preview and open up localhost:4000 and make sure my post works right, then I do a rake generate and then I have a whole bunch of static files in $octopress/public/ (iirc the layout). Then I can take those and serve them anywhere I want - and I mean anywhere, since its just HTML.
Oh, i think this is where you had problems: echo '[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM function' >> ~/.bash_profile
it should be echo '[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM function' >> ~/.bashrc instead.
You have two options.
You can use a script that will do this for you, or you can follow the guide manually - they'll both have the same results, and they'll both do the same thing, the only difference is that the script won't require you to copy/paste anything after you select the method of inst...
I got real negative feedback when I said we should have an answer auto-accepted after a certain amount of time. Can someone please explain thier reasoning for being against it?
the community can pick an answer out of the list with votes - but again the decision lies in teh hands of the asker for the acceptance badge on the question.
How can a user "not know"? They are looking for an answer and one answer is sure to fit the bill better than the others. I usually upvote questions that support the best practice solution.
but award checks to the answer that wholly answers the question in the context that i phrase it
@William if you give good, quality answers you get rep. Example: I've adopted the ruby tag - almost all my answers consist of a link to one of my answers, plus a few relevant pieces of info. I try to make a general answer, but also give it the caring hand/touch for that situation.
@jrg I agree that focusing on writing good answers is a good idea. But especially for relatively new users like me, reputation is like currency. It frees you from the privelige restrictions.
half of the fun would be getting it back to watch it roll back - like driving your dodge to 999999 and watching it reset to 0 -- blatant 90's sitcom reference
Sorry, the system menu cannot be brought back. You can get the shortcuts by enabling the "Other" menu. See http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2011/10/17/ubuntu-11-10-upgrade-missing-your-system-menu-preferences-administration-launchers/ .
Also, @William - if you really want, drop a link in the chat room asking for some screenshots - I've normally got time to do a few, I know some others that do as well. It's a community of many, not one. :)
The whole monkeys + obelisk thing still cracks me up -- my boss made a direct reference to that today when i explained to him how this client home-roll CMS works.
he said, and i quote "Do we all feel like the monkeys and the obelisk or what?" my rebuttal "Pretty much..." he responds "good, you've learned what NOT to do - lets not repeat other peoples mistakes" -- last sentence paraphrased.
Candidates as valued members of our community and our lives, many of us worship cats and other small furry creatures... What is your stand in regards on animal cruelty and the treatment of said animals?
That particular video I'm referring to is about some moron thinking that it is funny to put a kitten on a subwoofer while playing some music. It is absolutely not funny for the kitten.
@OctavianDamiean Or, Something like "Your systems performance is being checked, the gui will now be terminated... This might take some moments" in Ubiquity
@AmithKK if you are already running the installed I fail to see the problem, the installer uses RAM, it does not report the wrong amounts available and the speed of that RAM can still be measured
If anyone wonders why I have answered old posts on meta it is in an attempt to clean out things that are sorted from meta.askubuntu.com/unanswered. Even if posts are answered (but without one up-vote) or are marked as status-complete or similarly they will not be considered unanswered until they get an answer with one up-vote.
@OctavianDamiean Cheers. ~70 unanswered posts at meta might not be that bad for the moment, though we want to easily find unattended posts on meta and we do not want a future where meta is hogged with unanswered posts.
I'd like to have an icon on the unity launcher that triggers either the ALT+TAB or "compiz scale" behavior. I don't want to use keyboard shortcuts and want to switch easily between applications using the mouse.
It would be great to trigger the compiz scale behavior by clicking an icon on the laun...
