@blade19899 that has nothing to do with getting rep >:D

Braiam

@Rinzwind wut? 31*x=10000?

Rinzwind

@Braiam why do you assume the month I joined had 31 days? :+D But I got a lot of extra from accepted answers and bounties too :D

Heck, I jumped on EVERY non answered questions :D :D

falconer

I think he is exaggerating a bit with that less than 1 month. But he was pretty fast that is true. :) data.stackexchange.com/ubuntu/query/27788/fastest-to-10k

Rinzwind

damn you @falconer :D

falconer

;)

Rinzwind

16:15

lol

hmmm I am the fastest still active member >:D

Braiam

wait... I'm in that list O:

btw, that list is biased... the first vote is from a migrated question :(

Rinzwind

LOL

hmmm @falconer might I ask a new query?

top 10 of rep per day avg :D

falconer

I didn't wrote that query, just searched for it

Rinzwind

in that case: good find :D :D

falconer

If you want me to write an MS SQL now, I won't be ready in 10 min

:)

Rinzwind

16:18

naaa dont bother

I once had a 4 day streak of 200+ :D

falconer

But I saw a similar query a few days ago, i will search for it

data.stackexchange.com/ubuntu/query/35545/…

data.stackexchange.com/ubuntu/query/134163/…

slightly different

Rinzwind

oh 18 more days and I reach 1000 days, And yes I was here every of those 1000 days :+)

This is a lie -> visited 982 days, 127 consecutive

damn.... while being banned ixz still gets more rep than 99% of all users :D :D

falconer

banned?

Rinzwind

hmm

izx, California

This user keeps putting them in his posts, and if I remove them while I'm editing, he puts them back.

IMO they're really annoying.

jokerdino

yeah, just leave it.

Seth

@Rinzwind Was he really banned? Well he's not banned anymore..

@jokerdino but it's so annoying, he puts them in all his answers D:

jokerdino

izx wasn't banned or suspended or anything. He just left.

I don't know what happened to him but I think I have his number.

Seth

@Braiam Hey, you should know that if you hit enter before finishing the message you can't go back and change it

jokerdino

You can't edit the comment?

Anyway, there is a script in StackApps that disables that particular behaviour.

Seth

not unless you edit something else in the post as well

Braiam

actually, you have 5 minutes

the edit reason?

Seth

@Braiam nope. I went back and fixed it, didn't work.

@Braiam I'm reviewing one of your questions: superuser.com/review/suggested-edits/189783 and I need help understanding the "virtual interface" in the title.

@Alvar Does he know what that does?

Alvar

@AmithKK I told him, he didn't answer. so not sure really

Amith KK

"put on hold?"

What does that mean

Alvar

@AmithKK what it says.

it's not closed it's put on hold until the problem is fixed

but it's basically the same it just sounds better

Alvar

17:53

@jokerdino Can you (or someone!!!) give me some help with brask! it's really hard trying to convince this guy that he's wrong....

jokerdino

Wrong what?

He did post an answer.

Alvar

...

he answered the wrong question

look here askubuntu.com/a/401631/10698

and then here.. askubuntu.com/a/401640/10698

he's thinking all wrong, like I don't like this big question with a lot of attention so I'll create my own and answer it so nobody can find it!

jokerdino

just leave him for now.

pacificfils

and, do you guys recommend KDE or Unity for gaming/standard use?

?

Seth

gnome-flashback

pacificfils

18:21

true, flashback is good, but i'd like KDE/Unity.

i used flashback for a while.

Seth

Lets just say I try not to use Compiz when doing graphics intensive stuff.

pacificfils

so, you recommend neither?

Braiam

KDE doesn't use Compiz

pacificfils

(unless you tell it to)

Seth

I recommend Unity for standard use and gnome-flashback for gaming/graphics intensive stuff

KDE is fine, I just don't use it anymore.

pacificfils

18:29

okay.

i kinda like KDE.

Seth

Seriously @Braiam did you have to change that title. It's been around for a loooong time >.>

pacificfils

so, KDE it is.

i have enlightenment too. =]

Braiam

@Seth err... not my fault... title is too general

also, dupes are bad... too bad

pacificfils

okay, i have to hand it to windows 7.

they had a nice UI.

Seth

@Braiam Title is too general? Now it's general.

Braiam

Actually, it's quite nice on a desktop.

Thomas

Hello. I have downloaded the iso for Ubuntu 12.04. Do I have to use a CD or can I use a DVD for the install?

jokerdino

I use it when I am not on Fedora

Seth

I had my worries, but once I tried it, it was awesome.

pacificfils

it DOES have a pretty UI, but it's sad on a desktop without a special start menu app

Seth

@Thomas DVD works fine

pacificfils

18:34

@Seth you beat me to it.

Thomas

@Seth: Thanks!

pacificfils

CD if the ISO is under 650 MB

DVD if greater than 650.

Braiam

@Seth please check the image, then check both upvoted answers. Same family of graphics card "HD3000/Radeon 6850" and "This only affects HD 4xxx graphics cards". People will find it more easily if we use that graphics card model instead of "ouch is hot after upgrading"...

Thomas

@pacificfils: Can I use a DVD if the ISO is under 65)MB?

... 650

pacificfils

yes

you can always use a dvd

Thomas

18:36

@pacificfils: I only have DVDs ...

Thanks

pacificfils

it works either way, just under 650 fits on CD.

Seth

@Braiam sure sure, I know..

blade19899

@Seth Devil bless..... :/

Seth

Might as well add helpful tags while you're at it.

Rinzwind

@pacificfils no 703Mb fits on a CD. You need an 80 minute CD.

Braiam

@Seth where is the question about creating a usb from windows?

pacificfils

Seth

@Braiam I can never find it.

Q: LXC and deployment of web application code

l'm currently in the learning stage of using LXC. Now I'm at the point where I'm ready to deploy my application (written in PHP) to my containers. I've been using DeployHQ (deploying over ssh 2) to get my application from GitHub for this in my old setup, but I'm having issues understanding how...

@Mateo actually i was going to say like my dad's android device that has no NFC

not all android devices in the past year or two have NFC, it's still relatively "new-ish"

Mateo

have you seen the Bluetooth speakers that use it to connect on tap, that is cool.

Alvar

community wiki steal! not cool! askubuntu.com/questions/230592/…

Braiam

@Alvar actually making a post CW is up to the OP, if he wants some kind of reward for his work of actually moving the answer from comments or the question we are not the one to judge

Alvar

@Braiam what?

Braiam

I was offered 5 upvotes on an answer that was not even mine, because I took care of the question

Alvar

to me that's being a douche bag... Since you didn't come up with the answer then the reputation shouldn't be yours...

Is there a meta question on this?

Braiam

@Alvar you are looking at the wrong side of the coin. Community Wiki are mainly there to be easily editable by several users not to prevent OP from getting reputation

Alvar

@Braiam I mean that you shouldn't get reputation for something you didn't create. that's like stealing...

Braiam

@Alvar then what benefit he gets from correcting the question as rules says?

Alvar

@Braiam who?

Braiam

@Alvar the one that answered the question...

Alvar

the op or the one that posted the answer?

Braiam

he's doing something good, why not recompensate him?
