@TheXed So you remember those too.
@TheXed Did you ever see my penguin's review of Windows 98?
 
@NathanOsman Yeah I think so, however i don't remember it off the top of my head.
And yes I as a faithful user of the baseball theme
 
He shows some of the themes near the end of the review.
 
Uh...did the penguin just install windows 98 overtop Windows 7?
 
@TheXed it's an upgrade plain and simple
 
@Zacharee1 that is what I said, and you guys told me I was Crazy...
 
3:13 AM
lol
 
Why are all the mDNS queries flying around my network using "0" for the ID field?
 
@NathanOsman PRISONER ZERO HAS ESCAPED
 
I'm (essentially) writing a DNS server.
Goes back into rabbit hole.
 
@NathanOsman why are you wriiting a DNS server?
 
I need my app to respond to mDNS requests.
And Qt doesn't have a class for that.
So I'm making one.
 
3:16 AM
I see...its as clear as mud.
 
lol
like most of what we people do
 
i wish there was a routine to distinguish doubleclick and single click, but i have to write my own too for the indicator. . . . . speaking of which . . . .
i should make a repo on github for it
 
ugh sore pencil throats are the worst
@TheXed >:D
 
@TheXed Holly Moderators!
 
3:30 AM
@ƎpᴉʇʎXD pencil throats?
@HenryWHHackv2.0 moderators?
 
yes...
 
@TheXed It's a mod joke.
 
@HenryWHHackv2.0 I can see your obsession of being a moderator
 
I guess I don't get it...
 
how do you get a pikachu to a bus? PokeHimOn
 
3:34 AM
Eyeroll...
 
ever seen a pikachu on meth?
 
@NathanOsman IKR
 
Anyone watching the Olympiads?
 
@ƎpᴉʇʎXD What Country are you rooting for?
 
3:42 AM
idk
just for fun I guess
 
i know which one
 
@TheXed It's just a bunch of people competing to take the most steroids while adopting a façade of "global unity" that makes my stomach wretch.
Other than that, it's pretty cool.
 
Aside from that, it's cool to see athleticism , right ?
 
@NathanOsman you have to overlook the steroids and "global unity' thing...
 
Once you get past those, it's interesting.
 
3:47 AM
i should watch some olympics . . . i haven't watched real TV in ages
 
I don't even have a TV :D
 
@NathanOsman actually they have really cracked down on the roids... the Russian track and field team got banned this Olympics for doping...
 
I know, so who knows whether other people are doing it or not.
It has happened before that samples taken from past Olympics were retested with newer tech and athletes have had medals revoked.
 
Olympics in ancient greece were the best . . . no steroids and everybody is butt-nekid
 
@Serg where you there to watch?
 
3:51 AM
@TheXed yeah, i took time machine from a doctor who lives down the block. Really spectacular
 
@Serg Didn't you lose your head when you lost?
 
@Serg you know Doctor Who?
 
@NathanOsman nah , you're probably confusing it with roman colliseum - gladiators were really loosing their heads there
@TheXed not really XD i dont even watch the show, but apparently it's popular enough for my friends to spam my facebook feed about it
 
#ser
@Serg I was reffering to the Doctor down the street with the time machine...
 
@TheXed yeah, that's my reference to Doctor Who
in all honestly i dont know our neighbours
 
4:01 AM
2 out of the 3 have been or are my co-workers..
one is a teacher and the other was a secretary....
 
Can i just say , having dual screen is awesome
 
I use to have a dual screen set-up at work..
Then I gave one of my monitors away...
I also gave my laser printer away.
and my ipad...
 
@Serg definitely
 
and my ipad mini...
 
i need a third one
 
4:07 AM
all for the greater good of humanity (I hope)
 
@TheXed humanity as sum total of all people is beyond saving and beyond greater good. But there's quite a few cool honest percentages
 
@Serg thanks for being a debbie downer :p
 
@NathanOsman Who is the voice of George the Dev?
 
@HenryWHHackv2.0 Me.
 
4:19 AM
@NathanOsman His voice is so cute! (Note I said his voice not your voice.) :D
 
GOod night
 
sleep well
 
I can't start flight gear. :(

Should it really be considered EOL specific? askubuntu.com/questions/809751/…

or rather i meant you can leave a comment
 
6:01 AM
@AnwarShah could you find a duplicate for it ?
 
I was thinking same
It must have dup target
 
6:19 AM
not a dup target. but a question bundled with answer
 
@AnwarShah i you could suggest to OP to take a look, but it seems to me it would require explanation . There has to be something better maybe ?
 
yes. but I haven't found any. all of them are about standard php installation using apt-get

s/he clicked the button and got a message saying 'thanks for your feedback... when you have enough rep blah blah blah'

Why oh why does spam only come in the night time in my time zone. :(
 
it's morning for me... maybe that's a meta question haha
 
@HenryWHHackv2.0 cause many spammers are in india
 
@JourneymanGeek Ok Is there a spam traffic chart or something I can look at?
 
Hello fellow Ubuntoids!
 
8:36 AM
@Arronical Hello Fellow Ubuntoids! :)
 
morning :)
|| afternoon || evening
@HenryWHHackv2.0 there's only one thing you need to do with spam :)
 
1000,000 spams per second. DOSE ATTACK!
 
Just thought that Ubuntoids sounds like something you are prescribed ointment for, maybe I should bin that word.
 
(Rant as a Question)
 
haha is there a flag for that?
 
8:42 AM
@Zanna I wish there was
But I flagged it
 
no worries, Stefano got it with mod-fu
@grooveplex so @JourneymanGeek don't blame India haha :)
 
:D
I'm always a bit confused whenever a '12.10' question comes up and I'm like 'but it's EOL now!'
And then I check the date and the question was asked 2 years ago
 
voted :)
 
@Zanna flagged blushes
 
8:50 AM
@Zanna email maybe.
 
sorry I don't get it... email?
old question... I don't know what to do here... if anyone feels like advising... I should just go read meta askubuntu.com/review/close/601371
 
I was thinking folks who spam blogs and a few software companies which don't have a clue. In my experience a lot of them are Indian or Chinese.
Email spam is us oriented cause them hornets.
Botnets.
 
ah I see
 
It's not what you think
I now use ubunntu.tk as my URL shortener

Q: Does a dangling Linux boot entry interfere with the reinstallation of Linux dual-boot system?

XavierStuvwMy laptop contained a UEFI dual-boot system. I sent it out for hardware repairs and the dealer has reinstalled Windows 8 and, for good measure, wiped all Linux partitions (incidentally, without asking about the opportunity of it). However, as I check the boot manager, I can still see the boot e...

Q: How to start a program in a container as a service using systemd-nspawn, systemd-run?

DrgabbleHow do I run a listening program (specifically unoconv as a listener) inside a container using systemd-nspawn, so that it can run in the background (without a console) and be reached by other processes? For example in a perfect world it would be as easy as this: # something like this to start th...

Good day @all!
 
@DavidFoerster Good Day @You! :)
 
Hiya :)
 
I need some down-votes on an answer that advocates destructive operations during data recovery. It's not NAA or LQ, so I don't think it should be removed.
 
9:50 AM
@DavidFoerster Willing to give some of my rep, but only if you explain what exactly those destructive operations are.
 
done... hopefully the author will give in to peer pressure and we get our rep back :)
 
10:13 AM
@grooveplex see the comments on that answer.
 
@AnwarShah old in terms of how long ago we have known each other.
 
@jokerdino I understand, old friend :)
 
(:
 
@DavidFoerster I think the OP in that question is fscking the wrong device...
 
@Zanna I used a custom flag
 
10:24 AM
thanks @grooveplex
 
Flags with words \o/
 
askubuntu.com/questions/809995/… is there a solution? Don't install McAffee!!
 
@grooveplex er. I based this off my flags, both made and handled on SU ;p
 
@Zanna commented :P
 
10:40 AM
@Rinzwind I'm impressed you can tell they are running a 64-bit system from the available information!
 
@Zanna that's what the error notice is about ;)
dpkg: error processing mavl:i386 (--install):
dead giveaway
 
I think that doctor might be my countrywoman.
 
so the error is actually :i386
terse.
what doctor?
 
oh and it dies on
libicu42.
wanna bet? @Zanna
 
@Zanna see display name? o.O
 
10:43 AM
>_< yeah
 
/dev/mmcblk0p1 is a phone partition afaik
 
it could be yes, but my system has an emmc ssd (it's a phone in the shape of a laptop)
 
@AnwarShah seems so
 
/dev/mmcblk0p1 is my EFI system partition
 
it's my phone's system partition

whatever it is in her case, it's not the messed up flash drive, surely?
 
I think do
 
@Zanna heh. I have a NUC with one of those...
(and 2 other drives)
 
:)
 
the mmc has windows, I have a msata drive with linux and one more drive for general storage
 
11:43 AM
I'm so happy I don't have to use windows at all on anything :)
 
They're pretty good for looking out of while you're working on your lovely Linux machine.
 
11:54 AM
I should have the Marshall badge
I do now. I had to click the notification.
 
Congratulations you useful flagger. What next?
 
Find 500 declinable flags.
 
Because that's all that you mods like to do ;)
 
Right on. We try our best to decline flags on the tiniest of differences.
 
12:12 PM
and the mod that declines pilot6 most often in a year gets a free holiday of choice? @jokerdino
 
No, the actual game is who gets the most complaints on meta.
 
oh of course :D :D
how are you doing on that? :D
 
I'm just off to complain about mods being excessively jovial.
 
I am on a grand total of zero so I pick complaints meant for someone else.
@Arronical hey, file that against me!
 
You're just after the holiday!

@Zanna you have made it even now. Cheers
@Rinzwind heh, I expected a lot more than that. Downer.
 
sorry next time Ill throw him some gasoline he can use :+)
 
sigh I've been advised I have to install kernel ~4.6.5 to get my bluetooth to work... I am trying to overcome my laziness... but I'm feeling I will have other problems if I do that...
 
@Rinzwind meh, don't share them in public. You got my Twitter id?
@Zanna I remember times when I had to update bluetooth drivers in Windows so that it will work in Linux.
 
I already grabbed a windows 10 driver & added a btattach service file... I am almost there - bluetooth & btattach services are loaded & running, bluetooth icon lights up, thinks it's running, i just cannot pair anything
 
12:36 PM
maybe you need to try with bluez or whatever other bluetooth app.
 
@jokerdino I do goolge+ onlu 1 american company knowing all about me is enough >:-D
 
lol fair enough
 
bluez is installed...
 
Have you considered asking a question on the site?
(my way of IDK what's the answer)
 
I have to blacklist one bluetooth module btsdio because it causes havoc... but other people have got it working on my device without that afaik
I've considered it, but I have been given the answer 'install a newer kernel' elsewhere... so I think I need to actually exhaust that option... or just give up because I don't really need bluetooth
 
12:40 PM
yeah, haven't used bluetooth in a long time now myself.
 
I gave up on BT years ago :P
in general even. not based on an OS.
 
Well the really nice thing about it is using bluetooth speakers around the house :) that's a use case I'd want in on if I didn't live with 3 people I already don't get on with :(
I should fix it because this is my current audio situation:
$ dmesg | grep sst
[ 7.698733] sst-acpi 80860F28:00: No matching ASoC machine driver found
[ 8.294611] intel_sst_acpi 80860F28:00: No matching machine driver found
 
@Zanna fire them
 
<3
 
No not <3.
 
12:55 PM
that's to you
 
aww <3 you too
 
to Realtek I send sad faces
