@Mateo What's the difference between "Open terminal" and "Get terminal"?

Mateo

open will launch the program its self - if installed

kos

Right, didn't see it was in the screenshot....

Mateo

get will take you to the ubuntu store and search "terminal" to install it

@NathanOsman Whoa

Awesome

is it published?

Mateo

01:13

@kos well, the unity 8 desktop session is broken right now - so otherwise if you could install things there that would be good - otherwise the sdk with the desktop runner would be the best way to go

developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-sdk/installing-the-sdk

but, i'm not sure if the desktop runner has settings to recognize language, anyway

thank you for the awesome work @kos

kos

@Mateo Ok, I'll download the SDK then, I want to understand to which functions do the missing strings relate to exactly

I'll finish tomorrow, as of now I can't find out whether "Terminal" (the app's name) should be localized or not.

Nathan Osman

@James it's pending. May take 24 hours.

Mateo

for the wicked is a category = dangerous commands

kos

@Mateo Np, It wasn't really too much of an effort, it was fun. :)

@Mateo Yeah I got it, I was thinking if it was possible to render the exact same meaning somehow...

Mateo

01:28

i'll switch my phone to Italian and see if they translate the app

@kos as long as it dosn't have connotations that are too explicit in italian - it's kind of suggests magic but keeps it fun in english

so, yes it is translated :)

kos

@Mateo Hm I see... I guess I'll just go for the literal translation of "dangerous commands".

user139252

I was going through the review queue and I found an answer that suggested running sudo apt-get remove apt, so I downvoted because this is a very bad thing.

user139252

It was an audit... and I failed for downvoting?

Nathan Osman

@TheBrownOne Wut.

kos

@Mateo Oh perfect!

@TheBrownOne Link?

user139252

01:35

Mateo

@kos one of the other missing ones - adapt and copy/paste - is above a box instructing users that they can copy the text from it to paste in terminal - so anything suggesting to copy and paste text would be good

user139252

I guess the user wanted to break their system.

Nathan Osman

@TheBrownOne What was the question?

"How to break my install?"

:D

user139252

Ah, I see now...

user139252

Q: Could I remove apt with apt?

I know that I can use apt-get remove <package> to remove a program. But apt is a program itself. Could I use apt-get remove apt to remove it, or would it get confused part way through?

Nathan Osman

01:36

Lol.

user139252

I should have scrolled all the way down to see the question...

user139252

I reacted too quickly seeing the remove apt line

Mateo

one of my favorite commands is aptitude install aptitude ;)

kos

@TheBrownOne That one was a tricky one though.

@Mateo Cool. I'll do another copule, I'll leave those vague "Open" and similar for tomorrow. I'm also curious to see how it ends up looking.

Mateo

oh, i'll tell you about "open" then, that one is hard to tell given what it does

user139252

01:40

What is the "Time+" in top? Because I know I haven't been playing Tetris for 7 hours...

Mateo

@NathanOsman nice, is that up now?

kos

@Mateo Actually it would be the only one left... What does it do?

Mateo

ok, so when you click "open" it opens the webpage for that command in the browser

it is a small button - so a one word equivalent

Nathan Osman

@Mateo It is for me.

Mateo

for - webpage, website, or just something like browser

or just for open if that makes sense that would open the command in the browser

kos

@Mateo Hmmm for now I went for "Apri" ("Open"... it's just as vague as "Open" in English in that context).

Mateo

that will work

kos

Let me see if something better occurs to me along with something to translate "Powered by"... That one should probably stay as "Powered by", it's often untranslated.

Mateo

awesome :)

yeah, it has a very specific meaning - that doesn't include things like authorization, or implementation

things like "using the api from:", "using service from:"

hm...

kos

Reverso Context gives me the equivalent of "Powered by" as in "Powered by [electricity]", as expected. :)

But anyway "Powered by" it's often untranslated. We use tons of Anglo-Saxonisms nowadays.

Nathan Osman

02:23

Ah, here's the link: itunes.apple.com/ca/app/nitroshare/id1083800895

Mateo

02:36

@NathanOsman oh, noticing something on the website - can you turn on full justify - since most of the paragraphs only have two lines anyway

I usually just break words so they flow under

like this

will turn into:

this is the part that really suffers from it:

the first line has a lot of space between words, for not a lot of pay off

For... Windows?

blade19899

@Oli SORRY. SHell

I have been add it for a while

My brain is fried

Current code:

> ls /home/*/imap/*

Oli

Your keyboard seem to be possessed. This is not a good situation to be in to write code.

blade19899

@Oli Need to get this done though. SO... Lets continue

That code display all paths, even the empty imap/* dirs

Need it to display only the dirs which have content, /home/someuser/imap/cheese

Oli

Something like find /home/*/imap/* -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -empty ?

blade19899

@Oli My hero.

Need to do some further testing, but , so far so good

Oli

oli@bert:~/Desktop$ mkdir -p home/oli{1..5}/imap
oli@bert:~/Desktop$ touch home/oli{2,5}/imap/cheese
oli@bert:~/Desktop$ find home/*/imap/* -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -empty
oli@bert:~/Desktop$ find home/*/imap -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -empty
home/oli2/imap
home/oli5/imap

Didn't need the last /* in my case but yeah, something like that should work.

(Note I don't have a leading / on my paths because I'm just testing this in ~/Desktop)

Obv if you wanted directory listings you'd chain that in with a -exec ls {} + or -execdir {} \; or something like that.

blade19899

15:14

@Oli Yes. obviously. Just for the newbs, among, us. Not me... Could you display an example code...

Oli

oli@bert:~/Desktop$ find home/*/imap -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -empty -exec ls {} +
home/oli2/imap:
cheese

home/oli5/imap:
cheese

James

Writing with a keyboard that is under possession is not a good thing.

Oli

I'm not sure what you want to do with these /home/*/imap directories that you know are not empty, but that's how you'd ls them.

blade19899

@Oli We have multiple shared servers, with multiple domains, with multiple mailboxes. This is to count/list them.

15:55

The basic idea is that we don't have to worry about it because most of the time the malformed request will be dropped by the DNS servers

BIND 8+ drops those malformed DNS queries and responses, I believe.

So yeah, update (duh) but unless you're running a DNS server, don't sweat too much

Oli

@James Could somebody point you (via an advert or whatever) to their DNS server though? Or are you saying that intermediate DNS servers would filter it out?

@Oli Intermediary

Rinzwind

lol

James

so i query 8.8.8.8, which queries up the tree. Even if someone, somewhere responds with the malformed query, 8.8.8.8 will drop it and just return a NXNORECORDFOUND error or something like that

Oli

15:59

Yeah fair point

James

@SwiftOnSecurity I tested BIND forwarding to the PoC server provided and it rejects the response as malformed.

They'd have to MitM your connection with 8.8.8.8 to inject their nastiness.

James

Yup

which I suppose they could do

if they have network level access

but at that point, it'd be easier to exploit you other ways

Nathan Osman

@TheBrownOne yup, sure do.

James

like I know some networks that blackhole everything on port 53 that isn't their activedirectory DNS servers

Nathan Osman

Well, some routers are pretty hackable. That gives them exactly the access they'd need to run code on your box.

How am I getting permission denied when writing as root....

Mateo

so this is the md5 hash of that email 1015b199f3fa391bd2b0baea1f96aad0

developer.it/post/… - then try hashing your emails to match

Rinzwind

@TheBrownOne writing to memory

user139252

Oh ><. I, for some reason, applied the immutable attribute to this directory

Rinzwind

@TheBrownOne or that :=)

Seth

ooh, that's a good idea @Mateo

user139252

I keep getting:

user139252

theone@jakku:~$ md5sum ( [email protected] )
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `[email protected]'

user139252

19:19

@Seth sethj is yours, right?

Seth

Yes

@TheBrownOne echo the email and pipe it to md5sum

Rinzwind

echo [email protected] | md5sum

user139252

19:27

That got closer to the desired sum...

Rinzwind

@TheBrownOne with hashes closer does not exist :-P

user139252

I know :P

user139252

More of the first few characters matched, but then everything went all bad :P

user139252

Well, if anyone wants to track me, then, my new keybase ID is brownone

user139252
