@xiaodongjie Not exactly, you'll need to set up your wiki page, sign the code of conduct, hopefully get some testimonials and then add your wiki page to an agenda.
I got caught by an audit on Can I recover a deleted file?. The question, while upvoted, high-quality, etc., was actually flagged duplicate, and had three votes in support when the audit happened. Now I don't mind failing the occasional audit (there are a few questions I will always vote to close ...
@xiaodongjie Good luck with that. Seriously. It's insanely hard to get in, and you need to contribute to the Ubuntu project in many different ways for a lot of time. AskUbuntu isn't enough. Being an active developer/donor/something to better Ubuntu other than tech support is the only way to get in.
@NathanOsman They lied to me. 6PM, still don't have it. Sent it at 3:14:15 PM
I'm having the exact same problem. I attempted to run it via:
./WriteorDie2
And then got something about libudev.so.0 cannot open shared object file.
Did some searching and found some jiggery-pokery and attempted this:
cd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
sudo ln -s libudev.so.1 libudev.so.0
Then we...
It isn't a full answer, but it has a good bit of useful information and couldn't be easily converted to a comment. Trying to decide if it falls under "partial answer".
@NathanOsman How it works is your invite data is stored in a database. You need your invite to be approved before you can use the app. The link is just to download the app.

I have my ubuntu machine which is running Ubuntu 10.10 and that machine is running my app server.
I am suspecting that my machine got restarted today at some time but I don't know how to find out at what time my machine got restarted today? And if it got restarted then who restarted it and why ...
Please take a look at my profile here.
I am unable to ask anymore questions on AskUbuntu.
I thought this might be due to my low rep points , so I started contributing in writing answers.
I recently earned rep points and I have 59 reps.
But I am still unable to post any questions.
@KasiyA my favourites to quickly do that are the Inkscape bevel filters (in case your source is vector, but flat sources can very easily be vectorized too).
question: why isn't there a "Web" scope for Ubuntu Touch - the browser keeps looking more and more like chrome and it doesn't have search for history, or an easy way to get through open tabs.
I have two esxi machines that I want to directly transfer files between. Is there a way I can facilitate that transfer from a third machine that I have Ubuntu 14.04 running on?
I'm trying to block Facebook access from my home system. I could add facebook.com to /etc/hosts, but that would only prevent accessing facebook.com. There are many other ways I could use facebook, like mbasic.facebook.com, m.facebook.com, touch.facebook.com, the IP address, and so on.
I guess I...

I would like to write a bash script that implements a command which takes two parameters. The two parameters must be pathname (absolute or relative) of two directories. The two directories are not to be contained in one another (directly or indirectly). Moreover, the two pathname should not be sy...
perhaps I misunderstood you. I'm pretty sure muru is fine with bash stuff (pretty sure) but he doesn't much like real programming questions. (since when did anyone consider bash scripting "programming"? o_O)
Close voters: Questions about bash and bash scripting is not off-topic. This particular question is definitely too broad, and perhaps unclear, but it is not off-topic. — Seth ♦5 secs ago
I don't feel calling specific people out would necessarily be a good idea.
I wouldn't want to "search for feeds". I would want to search within my own feeds to find interesting stories. Like - filter securitynewsportal - feed xyz - for summary blobs with text "in the wild"
@blade19899 I've seen browsers that are about half that bad in person or actually that bad if you unhide all the bars that auto-hide themselves... for real.
@hbdgaf ah, yeah. maybe it could do both, the first bit could let you search for feeds for discovering them, then there could be an upfront "your feeds" section, or a section that shows/searches the articles from feeds
@hbdgaf saw one that had five or six bars ( all the top sites bars yahoo/google/norton/ect.) - started removing them... and the person was like "hey I like those, don't remove them"
If you wanted to include that, I would implement it as three tiers. First, search for feeds that have keywords in their descriptions or story summaries. If you pin one of those results (idk if the scopes api has a way to put a button on a result yet, but this is a use case for that) then the stream is added to your "Bulk streams for later search". Second option on those results is you could just open that story, so you kill two birds with one logic bundle.
The next tier is search all my favorite/pinned RSS feeds for keywords in titles and summaries. Third tier is search only a specific feed for a specific keyword.
All tiers would ideally have a "Save search params to run again later" which would be a separate subscope.
^^ That would be a top ten finalists - at LEAST.
It would be doubly nice to be able to manually add feeds if you wanted.
@Mateo I like that better than just the third one. I like option 2 and 3 better... like read me the manual and documentation with meaningful examples with all the parts connected already instead of me bumping in to something I want to do and having to find the api, then find a way to tie it in, then see if I did it almost right, the tweak it, then find out I should have used another thing, then finally have half a feature.
@Mateo Not an API I would use. I'ld bind to a file not in the scopes settings somewhere, so I could use mostly the same code to have a scope or a separate application and the only difference is the UI bricks.
No. There is no Hobbit 2 or 3. It was a prequel to the LOTR trilogy. Not an entity/franchise unto itself. Much like Star Wars can't go to 22 just by doing star wars universe books to make new movies that would outshine the originals by having the reconstructed jedi academy and superluke etc etc.
Speaking of, does anyone know of a "library" that allows you to use logic bricks to tie together functions? So, I could do something like use a decorator or superclass to make a function or class a logic brick in a drag and drop UI in a re-usable way? Like what blender does with game logic bricks, but for python, C++, or shudders Go (I only shudder because it would make me entertain learning the syntax)
@NathanOsman - ^^ if anyone normally here knows, it's probably you
nah, just used their api to do a simple scope that searched through their guides, but yeah I think this has quite a good application for sites that sell stuff
Here's another awesome scope. Add "books" and "ebooks" to your "I read this" library. Check Amazon for other books that are high star rated (4 or better) in the "Customers who viewed/bought this also bought" category, and further refine that by books that are available at less than half cover price. It's a searchable scope with an alternate "Surprise me" button that won't spend more than 10 or 20 bucks and you just get a book you'll probably like in the mail.
Add yourself in the referral string and earn commissions.
^^ Another winner, or at least passive income, scope.
The problem with that scope, is if you bought/read a Qt book, you probably don't want another one. So it would require that you don't keep niche or one book per topic tech books in your "I read this" list.
I roamed around these forums and look for answers to questions before asking them myself. For example, Skype and how it appears to be online but really it isn't. As I was reading this particular thread I found my self in a lot of talk about what to type into the terminal so it would work. Now as ...
@Whaaaaaat There's a better one that's not as subjective that basically asks what to use to extend Ubuntu - which comes down to C++, Python, bash-scripting, or possibly Go. Python due to it being part of a lot of the ecosystem already. C++ because Qt and GTK direct use for whatever sub-distro of Ubuntu you use blah blah. Bash because scripting is good. Go because who knows... it might just turn out to get used for loads of stuff.
@NathanOsman It probably is. I'm trying to find a way to make it interesting enough to myself to WANT to learn the syntax. I've expressed before, I have trouble MAKING myself do things... but if I can find a way to make myself WANT to do it, it's smooth sailing.
@Mateo That might work, but I was looking for something local. I need to read more there to make sure I'm not just assuming it only operates on results from their queries/feeds.
@Seth Docker and LXD are using it. I have a hard time switching to something new because of speed advances or because everyone is doing it. I don't need a reason. I need something interesting that makes me want to play with it. I've read concurrency, compiled, speed, static/deps included. None of them really scratch an itch I can't scratch another way... So, I'll keep my metaphorical mohawk doing things the way I want until I find a reason to do it differently.
It wasn't exactly support or detraction from your statement, just to be clear. I like it conceptually, but I'm not a big enough hipster to get on this early without it making my life easier after you add the pain of getting acquainted with YAPL™ (yet another programming language).
