edwinksl

lol serg "slap the dog"

Serg

If I slap the dog , does that count as b***ch slap ?

Zacharee1

it's really clap it in irons

and it means put handcuffs on, arrest

Serg

Welp , we may file a complain . . . .we just don't know where to file it . . . . We could go to police, but it's not a fact they'll look into it

But in any case I have evidence against the neighbors now

A lot of them , in fact

edwinksl

so much talk of popo in past hour

Zacharee1

Serg

Zacharee1

Nathan Osman

What do we have against Pi?

Serg

Nope, we're Ubuntu support site, not Tor support site , so no onions

I like pies , especially raspberry ones

Nathan Osman

20:26

Lemon pie is truly disgusting.

Zacharee1

Nathan Osman

Making apps DPI-aware is a gigantic pain.

Zacharee1

Is this the Nitroshare stuff?

Nathan Osman

Yes.

edwinksl

Serg

20:31

Meanwhile, I need questions related to Unity . . . .Also , maybe I should create separate repo for all the Unity stuff ? Like Unity Launcher Tools repo . . . . or Workspace Tools

Zacharee1

there

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 So...?

@edwinksl Of course.

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman didn't have it installed

Tampermonkey makes it a lot easier

Nathan Osman

Indeed.

I'm helping to "make chat great again."

Zacharee1

agh

Nathan Osman

20:32

Sorry, couldn't resist.

(Well, I could... but I didn't :P)

Zacharee1

Is there any way to report a YouTube video for violating somebody else's copyright? Because seems I can only report a video if it's my own copyright that is being violated...

Zacharee1

20:36

@ParanoidPanda nope

Q: How to modify output on a bash terminal for all outputs

I would like to be able to permanently edit my setup (I am running ubuntu) so that every time the terminal outputs something it adds something to the output. An example of this would be to add a line of dashes at the start of the output. What would currently happen: ./helloworld Hello World! ...

Serg

wat ?

Zacharee1

@Serg HDD took me 15 minutes, just so you know those times are extremely inaccurate

Serg

@Zacharee1 Took me hours on my old laptop. Really depends on a lot of factors . Hence answers will be primarily onion based

Zacharee1

yep

but I just wanted to say that your SSD estimates are probably not right :p

edwinksl

20:47

15 mins on a hdd here

Zacharee1

^

Serg

@Zacharee1 protection from idiots . How about someone comes back to the chat and starts telling you "But you said it will take 15 minutes ,man ! You Lied you SOB !!! "

Zacharee1

@Serg YOU SAID IT WOULD TAKE 2 HOURS AND IT ONLY TOOK 15 MINUTES YOU SOB

@grooveplex lemme introduce you to AMD

Serg

Better to take too long that finish prematurely

Zacharee1

I sense innuendo

Serg

20:54

My spoderman senses be tingling

edwinksl

this is bewildering askubuntu.com/questions/797926/did-ubuntu-really-crashes-hdd

Zacharee1

yeah

Serg

My guess would be that he has high swap usage and HDD just keeps reading root partition , then going to swap and so on

Zacharee1

@Serg said it

user136984

Goodnight! :)

Serg

21:03

@ParanoidPanda sleep well , mr Panda

Serg

@edwinksl you've reached 200 for today ?

edwinksl

oh no i mean you

it sounded like you were planning to answer python questions ;)

in fact someone downvoted me, so i am at -2 for today :X

Serg

@edwinksl I am planning to answer some of the questions i saved, but those data i posted earlier are from Code Review site. I wanna learn their methods and stuff

right now working on a script for appending clipboard

edwinksl

i would just read nathan's python repos ;)

nathan writes pretty python code

Serg

I'll put that on my todo list

Edity

21:55

Q: By learning to read and write upside down, what did I do to myself?

If you've ever read Encyclopedia Brown books, you'll be familiar with the backwards writing in the back of the book that explains the solution to the case. When I was in my mid-late teens (I don't remember the age exactly) I decided to teach myself to read/write upside down (and backwards?). I c...

cognitive-psychology learning motor transfer

edwinksl

seems counterproductive :/

Serg

@ParanoidPanda @JacobVlijm @edwinksl askubuntu.com/a/797945/295286

Yall might be interested

edwinksl

why is your terminal so hackeRzZZz

green text and all

Serg

Because I am 1337 h4x0r

just like how it looks today. I change colors every once in a while

and my prompt too

edwinksl

i would prefer to use a context manager to open files

e.g. for f = open(temp_file, "w")

but doesn't really matter here

Serg

22:19

@edwinksl context manager ?

edwinksl

docs.python.org/3/tutorial/… scroll to last code block of this section

Serg

with open ?

edwinksl

yeah

Serg

i thought it's only for reading data

Edity

winter

bburgh

soo...cold...

Nathan Osman

22:33

If anyone wants to translate NitroShare, there's still a couple of hours left before the next release... :D

Edity

sure

@NathanOsman hit me up

Nathan Osman

One sec.

Edity

you gonna credit me?

Nathan Osman

Of course.

Step 1 is to install the qttools5-dev-tools package.

Edity

ok

on linux?

Nathan Osman

22:37

Yes.

Edity

hold on il reboot

Nathan Osman

Step 2 is to download this file and open it. This command does both of those:

wget raw.githubusercontent.com/nitroshare/nitroshare-desktop/master/… &&
    linguist en.ts

Then you'll see something like this:

Change the Language and Country / Region to the appropriate values.

Then you can begin translating.

Serg

Nathan Osman

???

Serg

Good good RTFM , day day up

( pun on good good study, day day up )

Edity

22:42

(secret?)

ok @NathanOsman rebooted

Nathan Osman

Scroll up for the next instructions.

I posted them just after you rebooted :D

edwinksl

@Serg dat literal translation tho

Serg

@edwinksl because most westerners know only Chinglish translation

edwinksl

nonsensical translation :P

Serg

@NathanOsman what do you think of gists being added to linkedin resume ? Do people prefer seeing only github repos or does anything work ?

Nathan Osman

22:45

It doesn't hurt.

My resume includes lots of links to GitHub repositories.

I don't think Gist would be much different - especially since you write a lot of short scripts.

Edity

do you need nitroshare for that?

translation?

Nathan Osman

Well, if you want to see the context, you could grab the code.

Edity

@NathanOsman error 400

Nathan Osman

Then Linguist shows you where each piece of text is:

@Edity Where?

Edity

the wget raw.githubusercontent.com/nitroshare/nitroshare-desktop/master

Nathan Osman

22:48

Yeah, it might just be easier to do a full checkout.

Edity

ok

Nathan Osman

Try this instead:

 git clone github.com/nitroshare/nitroshare-desktop.git

Then you will find the file in src/data/ts/en.ts.

Edity

ok

edwinksl

wget works for me

not sure why it didn't for edity

Nathan Osman

Maybe it's blocked for him.

Edity

22:49

cloning into 'nitroshare-desktop'...

done!

Nathan Osman

\o/

Zacharee1

Galaxy Note 7 is going to be announced on August 2nd!

Edity

now what do i do?

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 Eyeroll...

@Edity Try this:

linguist nitroshare-desktop/src/data/ts/en.ts

Edity

linguist: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/linguist': No such file or directory @NathanOsman

Zacharee1

22:51

@NathanOsman it actually looks like it's going to be good. But Verizon, being Verizon, might have a lower-end version

Nathan Osman

Hmm...

Try installing qt5-default and try again.

Edity

k

Nathan Osman

Sorry, I forgot that you need an extra package :D

Edity

facepalm

Zacharee1

@Edity at least he knows what he's doing :p

Edity

22:54

ITS THE GOD DARN PACKAGES! SUCKING UP MY DRIVE!

Too.Much.Dialog.

Too.Much.Setting.Up

done

edwinksl

but you signed up for it

Edity

now whats next @NathanOsman

Nathan Osman

Where are you at?

Edity

the dalog

#nitroshare-about

Nathan Osman

Oh, you're ready to input the translations now?

Zacharee1

22:58

@NathanOsman what are you trying to do with @Edity?

Nathan Osman

Translate NitroShare.

Edity

yes

okay

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman to?

Nathan Osman

@Edity Towards the bottom, there's a line that reads "Source text" and "NitroShare-About"

Enter your translation in the box below it.

@Zacharee1 Beats me.

Zacharee1
