Can we gang up to undelete an answer JokerDino deleted? The deleted answer was posted in 2010 and has 40 upvotes: askubuntu.com/a/15469/307523. Joker deleted it in 2013. However the same answer was posted by another user in 2012 and it's not deleted: askubuntu.com/a/147130/307523 it even references the deleted answer as the source
@Rinzwind I might be able to fix some gedit drawbacks if I can run sudo as root. I know you can run sudo as user gdm but you should be able to run sudo as user root too right? (just pontificating here).
My thinking is to get sudo -H gedit to get menu buttons which disappear in top bar back.
I just sourced a script from within my bashrc and then after closing the bash shell and reopening it, it gets closed instantly. what can I do? I'm using WSL.
But I don't see why you want to undelete it, given the comments on it suggesting it's very dangerous and the fact that the information is in another answer anyway...
But if you think the post should be undeleted, you can flag it for moderator attention
@Zanna I'm not sure but I've tried before and I guess I can't. Windows keeps Linux files in a way so even when they seem to be in System32 folder, when you look there up, they aren't.
Some days ago I flagged this answer hoping it would be undeleted as it is the correct answer to the question. My flag was marked helpful, but the answer was not undeleted :(
@Zanna @Zanna two mods might be able to though. I noticed @ByteCommander flee from this room just as I posted my question haha
^^^ notice @Zanna twice is some sort of Fruedian slip for two mods or whatever that is called.
Well it is kind of short to be an answer but yes I see that moderator Mitch is one of the deleters. BTW I posted my own answer on that link.
@Zanna I just want to be fair to the guy who got deleted. The other way of being fair is to delete the duplicate answer with 12 upvotes (or however many it was).
To the new comers: This answer with 40 upvotes: askubuntu.com/a/15469/307523 is deleted by mod. This duplicate answer under same question with 12 upvotes not deleted: askubuntu.com/a/147130/307523
Great analysis @Zanna. However the undeleted duplicate (merged) answer has recent comments recommending it. This implies the deleted original answer may not be so bad after all. I'll try it out myself tomorrow or the W/E on my borked 16.04 to 19.04 upgrade that has the same error message as the thread's subject line.
@WinEunuuchs2Unix oh yeah. I think the system is pretty good though. I mean, most of the things that warrant flagging don't need discussion, and mods can send you messages if they want. The kind of flaw is that it's relatively difficult for you the flagger to appeal or ask why something happened the way it did. It's helpful if mods are around and available for discussion when that happens. I guess there's always meta for moderation stuff that actually does merit discussion
but then, I "maintain" a chat room to discuss moderation issues, so......

@Rinzwind You were right. 50 points in serial voting were removed this morning for yeserday. But I woke up this morning and another 150 points were voted overnight so it looks like it's happening again. Do we know who is doing this?

I have a hands-free bluetooth and I have managed to connect it to my android and my ubuntu 18.04 laptop, however I have not been able to work simultaneously on both (If it connect to Android first, it does not connect to Ubuntu laptop and vice versa).

What to use to backup server admin files to Google Drive?
