Can you... stop @HenryWHHack?

BE CAREFULL A MOD IS ALLWAY WATCHING!

Journeyman Geek

dude, spellcheck

Henry WH Hack

@JourneymanGeek ?

Journeyman Geek

*careful and *always

Also, if you know something will annoy folk, don't do it

Henry WH Hack

Was that an insult?

Rinzwind

plus hichris123 is not a mod :=)

Videonauth

@Rinzwind de facto we are all mods

Rinzwind

07:01

@Videonauth fine fine. hichris123 is not a blue user :=)

Videonauth

ok, I can accept that rephrase :p

Rinzwind

+1 for your mod selection >:+D

pay me 100 dollars and you get another +1 >:-D

Journeyman Geek

@HenryWHHack its a very general statement

Rinzwind

j-man! how are you today?
I am feeling very sick :=)

Journeyman Geek

vaguely bored

Rinzwind

07:06

@JourneymanGeek I am testing @Videonauth's bribe-ability >:-D

Videonauth

im sorry but im poor very poor

edwinksl

The election is looking more and more interesting

Rinzwind

@Videonauth better response would be: I am not bribeable :=)

ooooh Jacob added himself? @Videonauth you got a problem now :D

Videonauth

yeah well i never expected to stand a chance at all

blade19899

Can stackoverflow block an IP?

Rinzwind

07:09

being realistic is a good mod trait too @Videonauth ;-)

blade19899

Can't connect to stackoverflow when at work

Journeyman Geek

@blade19899 yeah

and well

I have no idea what its like when you're blocked. More likely your work's blocking em ;p

Rinzwind

@blade19899 unlikely. I'd put a bet on your work blocking

you can check with netstat can't you(?)

or traceroute?

@Videonauth the only thing against you is the 2 months... your editing scores are excellent.

Videonauth

well we will see

im just looking at it realistctly, the persons who will pull in today for nomiation have a much bigger fan base so to say

the only real positive on my side is that i spend roughly 10-12 hours per day on the site being active reading evaluating answering and so on

Rinzwind

I did that too in the beginning :D

I think one of the mods said I had the quickest run to 50k and to 100k rep at the time.

Videonauth

07:26

:)

@Rinzwind Like I said we will see in the end :) as I already stated I wont be upset or jealous if I not make it, but happy as hell if, as it gives me a chance to contribute

Can someone close this askubuntu.com/questions/784758/…? I have resolved it with the OP and this is not a AU question.

@blade19899 that is not stack blocking,

@JacobVlijm ehm. yesterday.

@Rinzwind Really? For some reason, I'd expected him to run

@SeverusTux Ah, I think it's a good thing for everyone if more will arrive.

Videonauth

shush jacob :p gimme at least a little chance;)

Severus Tux

@JacobVlijm yes
Probably ... some are upset because of that rep thing

Jacob Vlijm

@Videonauth haha, I am in it like you

Videonauth

:) i know

Jacob Vlijm

@SeverusTux yeah, so was I as you may have noticed. Nevertheless, better a not-so-handy procedure, than letting things happen.

Rinzwind

08:28

I dont want Jacob as a mod. It will take time away from his answers >:-D

Videonauth

I still believe ths algorithm was to narrow based in its fuzzy search

Jacob Vlijm

@Rinzwind Haha, Seth told me it was 5 mins a day :)

Severus Tux

@Rinzwind same opinion here ;-)

Rinzwind

@JacobVlijm you trust him? >:-D

Jacob Vlijm

@Rinzwind asa a human being, yes

Rinzwind

08:29

and as a mod claiming it is 5 minutes? >:-D

Jacob Vlijm

@Rinzwind but 5 may be too little :)

Rinzwind

^^

Jacob Vlijm

...and I have a slow brain

Rinzwind

it took Luis 6 hours or so to clear the review list when it went over 1200 >:-D

@JacobVlijm good call on nominating yourself! Glad to see you're running.

Jacob Vlijm

@terdon thanks!

Videonauth

o/ Serg

Serg

\o

@SeverusTux I haven't planned of nominating myself for mod elections. Being a mod requires substantial contribution and cool head, neither of which I poses so far

Journeyman Geek

@JacobVlijm somewhat more than that

terdon

I'm trying to decide whether to run or not. I think it might be a good idea to have a shared mod between U&L and AU.

Serg

08:37

@terdon definitely a good idea, and you;ve got respect from both sites.

Jacob Vlijm

@JourneymanGeek yeah, I figured, but even then, if it's not hours per day, and I still can do some coding and my job, it should be fine.

Journeyman Geek

@JacobVlijm 30 minutes a day spread out seems like a sensible amount

Severus Tux

@Serg Hello :D

I am imagining @Videonauth sighing in relief ;-P ;-)

Serg

meanwhile . . . is there anything that can be done about the lost rep ? or shall i just start from scratch ?

Rinzwind

@terdon I shall ping you all possible tranfers for u+l >:-D

terdon

08:39

@Rinzwind Well, yeah. That's kinda the point :) Gods help me.

Jacob Vlijm

@JourneymanGeek that sounds reasonable

Videonauth

@Serg chalk it up and start from where you are now, the chances are very low you would get hose votes back

Rinzwind

you trust him?
*deja vu*

Severus Tux

@Serg By "start from the scratch" you mean new account ? 😱 😲 😵 😱 😲 😵

Rinzwind

@Serg not unless shog finds a bug in the script he ran

Jacob Vlijm

08:40

@Rinzwind I have to...

Serg

@SeverusTux <.< em . . . no, I already have this account posted on my resume and I'm to lazy to edit that ;) jokes aside, I will just continue posting answers

I hope i didn't loose the command-line badge with all that rep . . .

Severus Tux

@Serg thats the best decision :-D

@Serg you had command-line gold ?

Serg

no, silver actually, missed that

@SeverusTux yes, i had :)

Severus Tux

crap..

Thats not nice

Serg

I'll survive , there's always more questions to answer :)

Anyhow . . . what else is new ?

Videonauth

not much i guess :)

except that now everyone seems to aim for making my chances smaller ;)

Serg

08:53

Ah , the joy of competition

Journeyman Geek

@Videonauth if you lose, all that means is there are two less people who've mod material next election

Videonauth

yeah but when and if a next election will happen is uncertain

Hizqeel

@AndroidDev :)

Journeyman Geek

True but they're periodic. I missed one election due to exams and was in a better position the next one.

Serg

That's what I am thinking right now actually : I am not in a good position for this election. I need to learn more, edit more, produce more answers

And produce answers of a better quality

terdon

09:03

@Serg The quality of your answers has very little (if any) bearing on your suitability as a mod.

Videonauth

@JourneymanGeek as you can see I have commented on every candidate I think is worth winning this.

Serg

@terdon well, people vote for those who have been around for a while and have written good answers , isn't that right ?

therefore better answers equals better chances to win (maybe ?)

terdon

@Serg Well, yes, but they shouldn't :) I can think of many users whose answers are great but who would make absolutely horrible mods. Their technical knowledge might be flawless but they're too confrontational, impatient, rude or whatever.

For example, if I were to vote for Jacob, it wouldn't be because his answers are excellent (although they are) but because I've seen him be mature, patient and constructive in his interactions on the site.

Serg

Hamlet said pretty much the same centuries ago

Their virtues else (be they as pure as grace,
As infinite as man may undergo)
Shall in the general censure take corruption
From that particular fault. The dram of evil
Doth all the noble substance of a doubt
To his own scandal.

terdon

Yup, that's pretty much exactly what I said. :P

Q: How to Make MoveToTrash mean Delete Permanently in Ubuntu?

I did Move to Trash > Empty Trash. However, .fileNames and .directoryNames stay in the filesystem. For instance, select to host the folder where you did removals. All your removals will be shared too. This is not what I want because it can lead to severe mistakes. Systems: Ubuntu 16.04

Henry WH Hack

@Serg SmokeDetector has given me an idea to code my very own AI/Bot in python.

Serg

09:22

@HenryWHHack oh ? that's interesting project. What will your bot do ?

Also . . . Here's a thought to ponder : is mental momentum important for being a good programmer ? or is it all about "summoning the demons at will" ?

( Yup, Serg is back and back to the weird thoughts )

Ferrybig

@HenryWHHack Just so you know, smokey is also written in python and is open source

Henry WH Hack

I know that.

@Ferrybig Wait I see what you me. ;)

Serg

@Videonauth I think that's the best way, but less natural.

@cl-netbox quite well, came back from China ( already ) two days ago, and miss it soooo much already :(

I will be going back there at some point, i don't know how or when, but will be going

cl-netbox

@Serg what especially do you like there ?

Videonauth

@Serg and taxing if theyre summoned, its like that i sit there then until its done, even sleeping in my desk chair

Serg

@cl-netbox food !!! the delicious food !!! and noodles !!! and the student life , it's so peaceful and safe there. And just people in general - very kind and nice

Henry WH Hack

I am going to modify smoky to make him more better and reliable @Ferrybig thank you! but do I need a license to do this?

:D

LOL

Serg

09:30

yes, probably GPL v 3

Whatever it says in the source code

Henry WH Hack

I need a license to modify smoky.

WOW!

Serg

Well, yeah, that's how it usually works in the open source world :)

Ferrybig

@HenryWHHack Smokey is released under either the MIT or the Apache License, Version 2.0, these licences are pretty free in what your allowed to do

Serg

MIT , huh ? that's what i have been using for my scripts :) and scarring off the users as well

cl-netbox

@Serg the food ? I think you can get very good chinese food in the US as well - right ? I like the asian mentality in general ... but you say peaceful and safe ? hmmm ... as long as you don't disagree with the officials - right ? :)

Serg

09:34

@cl-netbox hehe, disagreeing with the officials is dangerous in any country . I'm talking about common people

Nah . . . one can find decent chinese restaurants in the US, but . . . it's not entirely the same. . . .

Ferrybig

@Serg MIT isn't even that restrictive, it allows you to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, basically almost everything. If you look at the GPL, it limits you much more in terms of distribution and selling

Serg

@Ferrybig Yes, it's not very restrictive and that's what I like about it. What i mean is that i add licence to all my scripts I post on the site ( they also go up on github as well ) . So some users see "Oh, there's copyright there" and hesitate

Henry WH Hack

The Microsoft license is more worst than GPL. :D

Ferrybig

Fun fact: all Stack Exchange code posts are also MIT

user136984

You know, I spent ages using Nautilus's search facility to find a file on my system, after about 15 minutes of it searching my computer it found absolutely nothing, or so it claims... I decided to search for the file just in case using locate in Terminal, instantly it found it! :D

user136984

10:58

Didn't even take it 1 second and Nautilus took 15 minutes and still didn't find anything! :D

user136984

I think I'm going to stop trusting the GUI for my searches...

user136984

Though I would have thought that they both search through the same indexing database.

Rinzwind

@ParanoidPanda gui uses real time search = slow

if you put a file on your system locate aint going to find it until the -next- time locate database is updated

so it both has its negatives

Masi

@Rinzwind How can you change the search to database type? not real time.

user136984

What really gets me is that it didn't even find anything... Maybe it decided to be "helpful" and not show me config files.

Android Dev

11:01

@ParanoidPanda Or hidden...

Rinzwind

@ParanoidPanda it might also not show you files you do not own

(not sure though)

user136984

It wasn't hidden...

user136984

@Rinzwind: That would be rather annoying...

Byte Commander

11:25

@Rinzwind However, sudo updatedb && locate FILENAME is still usually faster than find - it's not that flexible, but fast for simple searches for the full filename in all locations.

@AndroidDev It will come as soon as I have enough consecutive time.

Rinzwind

@ByteCommander yeah well... I always thought someone should edit the cp, mv and other utils to update the entry in the database :P

terdon

@ByteCommander That very much depends on what you're searching for. I would only use that as an alternative to find /. Otherwise, find will probably be faster than updatedb.

@Serg yeah thought of that too, or to change the initramfs i think in there a fsck is running as well

any ideas what might be wrong ?

@ThomasW. ha! After my comments I would like to have no business with that question

Thomas W.

@SeverusTux Misrepresentation of size by your system

@Braiam heh. How fortunate my answer is 'nice' enough to touch on the key points in a way that is hard to argue against, and of course is just an opinion. I get enough backlash, and the mods get pinged to shut the users up.

Severus Tux

@ThomasW. ah.. that might be it, but how do I make an image exactly 196 x 196 pix ?? I used Gimp .. and this is happening

@blade19899 "Allow" or "listen on"?

If you want to listen on multiple ports, apparently, multiple Port 123 lines are supported.

eg, for both port 22 and port 2222:

Port 22
Port 2222

Thomas W.

@Oli The user is being argumentative, at some point I'm going to have to say "Listen, you are free to have your opinions, but we are not the maintainers, and we cannot know their policy - if there's no published policy you cannot assume we would be able to have the answer when we don't maintian the PPA"

that's a valid non-disrepsectful reply right?

Oli

Or, I'm sure, you could redirect the traffic with iptables but it starts to become hairy to maintain when you have configuration like that split over many systems.

Thomas W.

@LuísdeSousa I looked at some of Braiam's edits, they're edits I would have done if he had not already done them, as well. Consider that this site is designed to accept edits from the community - Braiam's edits are valid in my opinion - the fact he does a lot of them just means he reads every question heh. There's no issue with him attacking you with edits - your opinion on his edits is only yours, so this is more a case of you perceiving an issue where none exists, in my opnion

failing that, if you have an issue with how your posts are edited, consider a Meta post on the issue to get the community-at-large's opinion

rather than arguing here.

@ThomasW. Thomas, take this example: askubuntu.com/a/775612/177437

@ThomasW. This edition was made so that he could insert a different answer: askubuntu.com/posts/775582/revisions

@ThomasW. There were similar cases in the past. I would just like Braiam to leave alone.

@LuísdeSousa @Braiam take this issue to meta, explain your points clearly, and remember to stay respectful as per Ubuntu code of conduct

chaskes

@Serg It's you. How was the trip?

o_O

Got that output when I ran sudo apt update && sudo apt install moka-icon-theme

chaskes

But you don't have Chrome installed?

RPi Awesomeness

No, I do

chaskes

Then it's normal output

see: askubuntu.com/questions/760796/…

RPi Awesomeness

16:05

Interesting, but what about the other error, not being signed and failing because of an insecure repository?

chaskes

@RPiAwesomeness Oh, wait, I just saw the olav-st repo, but it's still normal (a problem on their end)

RPi Awesomeness

Ah

But I got the key?

chaskes

I'm not an expert on the issue, but I don't think they have it set up right on their end.

Or maybe you haven't imported the key correctly?

RPi Awesomeness

Yeah, I followed the instructions here

chaskes

hmm, as long as you ran wget in the same dir you were in when you imported the key, that should be ok

RPi Awesomeness

16:08

Yeah, and I got OK back from apt-key

chaskes

I still think it's on their end, but I don't want to speculate.

Q: Find recursively files that have a percentage of lines in common

Is possible to do this? I want an output where i have only files that are 50% the same of others or have 20+ lines in commons. I'm trying to isolate commons functions in *.java files. Thank you!

ubuntu command-line grep terminal find

Hello everybody :D

Videonauth

Hello Tux :)

Tim

What do you guys think: timonline.tk/TechSpecs

Braiam

@RPiAwesomeness is google repository that is using an old version of the repo creator (which in turn uses a weak hash)

see juliank.wordpress.com/2016/03/15/… and wiki.debian.org/Teams/Apt/Sha1Removal

Severus Tux

@Tim thats my dream specs ;-P

Braiam

16:51

Thomas W.

@Tim 64GB RAM, Dual quad-core+hyperthreading Xeons would be better

but meh

Serg

@chaskes yes, it's me :) The trip was awesome, i definitely wanna go back at some point

chaskes

@Serg 那太好了！ btw, at dark horse comics (darkhorse.com) the free comics section has several translated into Chinese (both simp and trad)

Braiam

@Tim meh nickcraver.com/desktop-build

Tim

Yeah I saw those

They are some really powerful machines there

Also not much more expensive than this computer would cost again

Serg

16:57

@chaskes lovely ! Those will be a good material for preparing myself before taking Chinese proficiency level 5 test . When I was there, i passed level 4 , first try :D

chaskes

@Serg Whoa! Good job. I'm not level 4.

Q: Why minus 500 a few days ago

Many of my posts had -10 and -20 all on one day. Did I upset someone? I do not see how all those could get downvotes all in one day.
