@Seth xfce "Ubuntu Studio" forgot the theme I thought it was a preinstalled one on there, I check the name sometime
Ah cool. Looks nice.
I'm not really an XFCE person though.
Probably my number 2 though, after Unity, since it is so customizable.

@hellodear Hello! I'd like to leave this message for you to let you know that I feel bad that (I think) I made you feel like being left out last night. It was just that I was a bit cranky. That's all. It wasn't your fault. Visit ELL room again soon if you can. :)

But....
@Raphael Take a look at this askubuntu.com/questions/191777/…, does it help?

Q: What are better performance and features of Unity over Gnome?

PandyaUbuntu gives Unity as default environment instead of Gnome. So, What/Which are better performance and features of Unity over Gnome? So-that It is used as default Desktop-environment instead of Gnome?

opinion based/listy, no?
and Unity is used cause dogfood.
'cause dogfood'..means??
11:16
Eating your own dog food, also called dogfooding, is a slang term used to reference a scenario in which a company uses its own product to validate the quality and capabilities of the product. Introduction Dogfooding can be a way for a company to demonstrate confidence in its own products. The idea is that if the company expects customers to buy its products, it should also be willing to use those products. Hence dogfooding can act as a kind of testimonial advertising. InfoWorld commented that this needs to be transparent and honest: "watered-down examples, such as auto dealers' policy of ...
wikipedia can explain that so much better than I ;p
lol !! BTW I am thinking of joining a computer science course in NIIT(I hope you know 'em since you are an Indian). What should I select as my elective: Cloud computing or Business Analytics?
lol
I'm not exactly indian
hm. I'm a managment/IT dual major
Cloud computing is likely to be easier
Business analytics would be more fun though
expanding your horizons, and understanding how the other side thinks and all that
But I am confused...if I do Business analytics I will be prying on other's data right??(I dont like prying that much!)
Also it requires you know a lotta math, right?
(BTW lets forget NIIT. Lets think in general which would be better to learn in today's scenario.)
@terdon hi! Cloud computing or Business Analytics...which do you think is better to learn in today's scenario??
@Rinzwind ^ ............ asking you coz AFAIK you are in the software field..(so you say)...
(sorry if this annoys you!)
12:09
@Venki I have absolutely no idea. Don't even really know what Business Analytics is. I'm a biologist ffs! :)

Q: How to use -exec option in find command

xiaodongjieI wanna solve some problems in compiz with my brain and hands. By the way I entered following command to build compiz from source in Ubuntu 12.04 find /opt/compiz-built/share/gconf/schemas -exec gconftool-2 --install-schema-file={}; I referred that command at http://www.brazzi64.net/blog/buil...

I'm very urgently.
please help me, kindly guys.
13:19
@xiaodongjie please stop doing that. You only asked 5 minutes ago, people will read your question. You keep pasting your issues here and every single one of them is always "urgent". Next time, wait for a while.
Even better, next time, read the man page:
"Both of these
constructions might need to be escaped (with a `\') or quoted to
protect them from expansion by the shell. "
The above is from the -exec section in man find. And this is also from the man page, in the examples section:
find . -type f -exec file '{}' \;

Hi, anyone know how to include file permissions in the include command? For e.g. this is what the normal command looks like:
$ sudo install -g docker -m 2775 -d /var/docker
@Venki you need maths for anything :+) and business analysis is about developing and checking the flow inside a business.

Should this be "status-completed" meta.askubuntu.com/questions/8156/… ?
@hbdgaf I've been working on another pic, this time for Raspberry Pi stuff and I was wondering what you thought of it...
I was also thinking possibly a star, but I wasn't sure where best to work it in...
@Dan Yeah, I think it should..
Dang....I'm in the top 8% this year...

suggested edit of the day! askubuntu.com/review/suggested-edits/280361 :D
@Rinzwind HATER!
@Alvar :D
just saying you need to be quicker >:D
@Rinzwind I'm saying you are a mean person writing a short comment, I went the extra bit and tried to help the user! ;)
@Alvar I type long sentences when the TS deserves them
this is clearly a "I did not google" question
true
But I still was friendlier than you ;)
but slower so I was the 1st to help
17:40
even though it only were seconds inbetween.
because when I posted your comment weren't there!
just checked the time stamps...
both are posted on 15:48:22 LOL
But I was 1st >:D
nope the system thought so. I still BELIEVE I was and always will be first. PERIOD.
;D
I'm top 13 on reviewed suggested edits on AU :)
Wow. Oranges actually won against socceroos.
17:55
What, did Netherlands play australia?
Wow! I'm psychic!
@jokerdino what a game.... it totally fits in with the previous matches this worldcup
hey, who knows about kiosk?
@RPiAwesomeness we won 3-2 in a game that was sooooo weird
17:57
nice :)
US won against Ghana, which surprised me
but that's oldnews
there where 2 goals within 1 minute; both teams made one :X
yeah and that was typical for the game :X
If the US makes it to the semis I might just have to invade my friends house to stream the game
My internet sucks sooooooooooo bad
oookay. Why is the Youtube web app working, but not the Grooveshark one. They both use Flash AFAIK...
@RPiAwesomeness LOOOL
but US has a better chance than England anyway.

Q: Is it appropriate to ask a question in an answer, or should this be a comment?

TimI answered this question: Whenever I try to download my Ubuntu 1 files, chrome block me. And Raphael commented that this could be a comment. (Not accusing, just wanting to know for sure). Is this a suitable answer, or would it be better as a comment, as this is part of the problem finding proc...

Meh, they were lucky to beat Ghana.
Earned Mortarboard badge on SO.

@jokerdino I'm not and yet I'll watch it if its on... And it's the only thing on.
Fair enough.
18:14
it sucks that sweden isn't in the cup -_-
Not enough Zlatan.
@Alvar I disagree. The defeat of Portugal by Germany I did not want to miss :=)
true
@Rinzwind we need 10 zlatans.
18:16
the world can't handle 1 let alone 10 :=)
haha
he used to play for my team :) :)
Ajax?
Soo, which best player is Ajax gonna sell this window?
18:17
I was born in Amsterdam so yes not a lot of choice other than Ajax :=)
op ;)
@jokerdino none. probably.
@Rinzwind Impossible
naa the players are not individually very very good. No Koeman/Bergkamp/van Basten quality
Plus we need a 5th title >:D
the dutch will be scary this world cup
Holland vs spain was crazy
18:20
If they can play.... looks like if sneijder can not play his game everything falls apart
@Alvar so was GER-POR. Germans are very good this year too
true, the germans are also really strong. The Machine.
@Rinzwind That happens everytime. Until semis
and now hoping Chili wins against Spain :D
its been slow on AU today :P

Q: Why was my simple answer deleted?

RyanNHGI answered a user's simple question with a simple answer. He wanted to learn how to make Ubuntu look more like Windows 7. So I gave him this link: How to Make Ubuntu Look Like Windows 7 A moderator deleted for copyright issues. Now the user does not have an answer to his question. I thought ...

because it's simple.
Title would be "Why was my simple answer simply deleted"

@Rinzwind everyone hopes spain will come last just for the lols! ;)

holas o/
my Ubuntu is acting up. anyone know which corner I should put it in until it behaves?
I have an SD card reader, and it takes 20 seconds to mount a 4gb sd card (if it mounts it at all)
card reader works fine on other pc's
once it does mount it isn't slow. just takes a long time to mount (again, if at all)
take it out then do a
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
put it in and watch for messaages
will do
not sure if it reports to syslog though :D but that would be my 1st approach
hrm, nothing out of the norm.
but of course they still take a while, and of course this time round none of them failed to mount
heisenbug
20:10
sorry it is nothign something I have experience with those sd cards. and when I use them they just work :D have you got a 2nd one? maybe it is the card itself :OP
@rlemon yeah, got another card you might try?
jrg
jrg
20:41
@rlemon It's the card, it's dying.
I've had Windows (and Fedora) write something to a hard drive that was failing without saying a thing, and then have Ubuntu try to write it and it fails.
(I knew it was failing, I was just testing if it would error)

@RPiAwesomeness I'm not sure I particularly like that one. It doesn't say Raspi to me. I'm okay with the red, and it might be good that you tuned it down from high alert red. Let me think a little on how to make it more Pi cue + problem + help
@rlemon how long have you had the SD-card?
