Not a question. Someone upset about air mail from UK.

@Toroidal added a solution.

So...I can use this as long as I'm not monetizing my videos?

If you're using it for a business, but not monetizing specifically on the video, I'ld ask the artist. I think they'ld be okay with attribution.

@hbdgaf Probably. I'll make a list and contact my favs

Anyone seen the new Ubuntu Touch videos? (1, 2)

Love that spinner animation at 2:00.

If you edit that not to onebox, I'll star it so people know what it is on the wall.

better @hbdgaf?

I think it'll earn more stars and stay there longer/get more attention that way. I was trying to do the Ubu-phone thing a favor ;)

@Seth Works for me ^^

Cool :)

Argh! I so want to try it out!

Then why haven't you?

I don't have a mobile device :(

I tried it on a VM. Crashed my entire system.

/me hides from the dmod

$195 isn't too bad though, especially for the specs. Beats out a Moto G, actually.

Yeah. I just wish it was in the USA :(

Ebay.

Oh, true.

But the shipping O.O

I had it running fine on my nexus 7. I'ld just hack away at anything with an unlocked bootloader from the factory.

Wish I had a Nexus, but I don't ;P

@hbdgaf Oh, believe me. If I had a Nexus 7 I would have been dual-booting long ago :)

Wow. That interface is really slick and smooth.

hmm, Moto G has a slight edge on screen resolution, but that's not a biggie for me.

I have one, but I cracked my screen. I was triple booting CM, Ubu-touch, and Vanilla Android - had debiankit running inside of CM. Multi-rom is AWESOME.

IKR!

The guy that wrote it actually got some of his help from the ubuntu dev channel on IRC... and says so on the XDA forums.

Just use noscript and stop clicking shit. PEBKAC

@Toroidal ...or not.

Flagging.

@Seth - For those types of things, you have to click for it to activate... then it shares on your wall. So the solution is put very nicely "Stop clicking on things."

ahhh, yes. So more like his FB account was "hijacked" than he got an actual virus.

Yes, the user doesn't understand. Lots of people think it's a "virus" when it's just bad user behavior.

Does anyone have any suggestions for companies that would be good to invest in? I've got an assignment for school where I have to fake trade for a couple months and I need companies to look at.

Twitter?

So far, I've picked Google, Twitter, Amazon, Apple, Tesla, GE, & Steelcase

@RPiAwesomeness My script isn't far enough along for that... but it is something I'm playing with. I'm working on a machine learning, backtesting, and restacking logic bricks sort of approach though. So, I don't have to understand it. It just finds correlations between hard movers over short spans and takes out the noise. Huge companies are bad short term moves, but good long term moves. If you only do it for a month or two, choosing good long-term investments won't work.

@hbdgaf Oh true...

So, should I drop any of the ones I've chosen? (in your opinion)

Does Apple have a new product release in the next 3 months?

@hbdgaf we don't know

@hbdgaf Well, they patented that GoPro-esque device

If the don't speculate on a new product in the next 4 months, their stock doesn't move as well. It always ramps and tanks around product releases.

Just a thought.

@RPiAwesomeness Look at "candlestick reversal and continuation patterns". The parts of the script needed to search for that already work. If you want the CSVs, I can send them to you somewhere.

True...I wonder how Microsoft would be...

#joking

@RPiAwesomeness Apple patents stuff all the time and doesn't make anything of it.

I wouldn't go on that.

so does everyone else

Seems you left out Motorola though..

@Seth Is that someone you'd pick?

I'ld be much more likely to pick Motorola than Apple.

Probably.

I'm human though, so I make mistakes ;)

I'm rather of the personal opinion that buying small stocks from companies like these is mostly a waste of time and money, but if I were..

If it's really a school assignment I'ld look at up and coming investment firms that are buying based on massive research in growth areas and buying one of them spreads out your risk in to 20 or more companies. It softens the ride and good up and comers are cheaper and move faster.

I don't have my case in point, but about 2 years ago there was one in the financial news a little. They tripled in 2 months, then backed down a little and leveled off.

Welp. I've decided. Thank goodness this isn't real money...

@RPiAwesomeness What are they using for paper trading tracking?

@Seth yeah, looks like they added a swipe up for navigating tabs in the browser, cool stuff

@hbdgaf Eh? I have no idea.

@Mateo Yes, it looks quite cool!

What about AMD? They're gonna be releasing their 300 series GPUs soon.

hmm, I wonder if the phone supports US bands..

oh, I'd do Intel.

they said up to 2g

@Mateo really? That's kind of a big take away.. Most carriers in the US are replacing anything under 3g. Verizon even said 3g would be obsolete on their network in 5ish years :/

@RPiAwesomeness I like AMD as a buy and hold. I haven't checked to see if they ramp on product releases. Check on google's historical stock price tracker and see if they have news events about product releases when prices ramp

They're $3 a stock >.<

@Seth yeah, so that I the big reason it is europe only - becaues it only gets the 3-4g on their frequencies

right, which is a major bummer :(

@NathanOsman Have you tried Ubuntu Touch on the Nexus 5 lately?

@RPiAwesomeness Yeah, but they bottomed. If they test SMA as support or break the upper bollinger band, .30 up is a 10% move on your investment.

@Seth it works quite well on mine, a bit of a battery hog for that device, but probably because it wasn't an "official" one

and you can multi-boot with it easily

@Mateo Oh I forgot you had a Nexus 5 :)

How well is "quite well"? Usable for everyday things?

Reliable?

just about almost there, the rendering is incredbly smooth and sharp, I always like that, and want to go back from browsing on android

the browser was lacking the easy tab navigation - looks like they are on that though

twitter worked

gmail

it pulled my contacts from google

so testing and calling wasn’t a problem.

That's great!

@RPiAwesomeness If you had gotten in when it tested SMA last time on Jan 30 and gotten out at the midpoint of the day when it tested the upper bollinger band, you would have made 4% in three trading days.

the only thing I think I will miss is using a google voice number -

Anyone any close votes left for this one as "off - topic, problem went away all by itself"

Well. Final decision for today:

xD. So this truck just went by outside, but it kinda sounded like a fan, and it scared me 'cause I thought it was my laptop's fans suddenly ramping to unprecedented levels :P

NONONO - wait for it to test SMA and come back or pass the upper bollinger band. It's at a reversal or take-off point now. The pattern you're looking at right now is most of the way to a pinched bollinger band with either results in larger moves or a flatline.

@hbdgaf So...drop AMD?

Give it a day and see what happens. It's approaching flatline or big move. Only get in when it TELLS you to. It's telling you be cautious right now.

Because I have no clue what you just said ;)

@hbdgaf So...a few stocks is okay.

@Seth No, I gave my Nexus 5 to my brother when I got my Nexus 6.

@RPiAwesomeness low volume right now. it's not a good idea to buy at the outside and hope it keeps going. it's a bad idea today, but on monday or tuesday it might be a good idea.

@hbdgaf kewl. I dropped it to 100 - $300.

Yeah, it'll probably flag up twice or so, then break back through... or not flag at all and flatline but that's me guessing.

@NathanOsman oh, ok.

Well. This'll be an interesting experience :)

Isn't this one OT as not Ubuntu?

facepalm

These reviews audits are so easy to spot...

sup @chaskes

not too much, usual

check out any of those books?

not yet, but I bookmarked them all

why would fn keys work in ubuntu and debian gnome/xfce, but not debian kde?

good question that i'm not equipped to answer, since i don't know what kde uses to snoop hotkeys.

I don't either, but that's along the lines I was thinking. I've read in the past that kde has some major diffs in that area, but I haven't found the details

I'll be intereseted to see if lxqt uses the underlying infrastructure from the gtk based WMs or uses what KDE uses. Have you checked it in LXDE?

If nothing else, it's an interesting question.

Yeah, but off topic of course. I haven't tried lxde yet with this laptop

are you using lxqt?

In a VM and as an alternate login option on my main laptop just to get used to it. When it goes main, I'll use it as a primary.

I used it with Porteus and like it a lot

I'm using it like this: askubuntu.com/questions/464741/…

^^ that's the VM setup. I did everything there except start from server for the alternate login option.

thanks, missed that. I may try it out. I'm using a couple of underpowered laps right now but get tired of lxde.

np. it looks like a project i'll move to using eventually. it's DEFINITELY on my use this in the future radar.

think of it as: "This aking1012 fellow wishes he could upvote software projects to encourage developers and tell people he likes what they're doing"

the trouble I've been having with ps-bsd is grub works right the first time, but subsequent boots don't show the other OS's

pc-bsd it borking grub? i haven't tried it again since my HD space started getting sparse and major last tried (9.0) didn't like my wired OR wireless chipsets... both ath

i heard the ath9k guy was trying to get it in to 10.0, but i haven't heard a definitive yes or no on FreeBSD 10 ath9k support for most chipsets.

I was wondering if it's a pc-bsd thing or a freebsd thing

yeah, I had to use usb wifi with pc-bsd

I'm religious about the ath9k driver... so - it's one of those things. If it doesn't work... (and I go out of my way to buy it)... I just don't use it.

what makes it special?

also, can freebsd handle efi now?

I heard it can, but my mobo does some really screwy stuff with EFI, so I just turned it off and slicked everything.

sounds good. I'll read up on it. I heard it was planned for the most recent release but don't know the status. I might install legacy to a usb drive

that's what I did with pc-bsd to work around the grub issue

@chaskes capabilities baked in to the linux driver, vendor endorsement of the open driver, etc etc. read as AP mode just works consistently, it doesn't have all the broadcom weirdness bugs, no blob or abstraction layer, and vendor endorsement. as opposed to vendors that say "hope your crap works moron" like nvidia or broadcom

thx. my broadcom on my old lenovo s10 (the cmos battery one) is a pain. ath9k works great with the 2 (underpowered) asus I'm using

Looking forward to when the Ubuntu phone is release in US

yeah. don't get me wrong, i accept that you're stuck with broadcom on tablets etc... and the guys that are building the monitor mode hacked driver apks for mobile+rooted are awesomesauce in human form. i'm just not ready to hang my hat on them being more awesome than broadcom changing things.

excellent point

thanks.

if there were an unlocked bootloader with ath9k chipset tablet that i was aware of, i would buy it on principle, even if it were more modestly equipped and costed $100 USD more.

now I get the aking1012 wants to upvote developers

yes. yes i do.
