Turkey wants in on Raqaa action to extract ISIS oil business partners. Britain wants to execute British citizens working for ISIS so they can't testify.

@TheXed You are scared of GITMO POW's telling the truth... When they are sent back to COO (Country of Origin) their governments will keep them under wraps.... no worries.
Well Gitmo was there before 9/11 and it will be there after 11/9 and the cost of the base will change little... But the moral issue is to send the 100 POW's back to their own governments. Of course Castro should order Gitmo closed but that is a different issue.
Of course you can shoot the clinton gang for 20 bucks but it's worth paying 2 million to lock them up for life to teach others not to abuse the USA like they have.
So yeah if the pro-clinton rioters don't stop in 24 hours send in the military and declare marhall law in those blue states. Second Trump flies to Gitmo, takes CNN, CNBC, Fox news with him asks POW's via interpreter "What country are you from?" and sends them to their home country prisons. Then he looks at US paid government lawyers "fighting for POW rights" and says "You're FIRED!!!". Camera fades to Cuban sunset.
Obama has had 8 years to close Gitmo and probably never been there. Trump can go there in one day and get all 100 POW's sent back to their COO government prisons. A REAL commander in chief gives COMMANDS. Morons.
@Anwar yes, but with that message bars you cannot see indicator label text. For instance, with my lks-indicator you cannot see which key (caps, scroll, or num lock ) is actually pressed, because it relies only on indicator label.
Only with AppIndicator support extension for GNOME shell it works properly
Budgie Remix’s developers say the new app indicator applet should be used on its own, in place of the regular system-tray applet, i.e. do not run both side-by-side.

@Serg Yeah, but I'd like to focus on things everyone can agree on. Statements (other than on-topic ones) that are put in a way that you are forced to either agree or disagree are not really fruitful in here I think. @terdon which censors?
This room has a very, very low tolerance of profanity, so I changed the word shit to crap (note that this is mention, not use). I'm a mod now, so I have to strictly abide by the local rules even if I might not agree with them :)
@Fabby If you are on Xenial or Trusty you should have got an update for it recently.

How on earth does one unsubscribe from Avaaz??? I have tried so many ways, even marking their messages as spam many times, but they seem to always still get into my inbox... I really don't want to see stuff from them. Anyone got any ideas?
I dunno. I think we're going downhill. We've started letting all the riffraff into the room. Look at who's here now. Some sort of weirdo with red eyes, a smoking dinosaur, some sort of human/dog hybrid. Sigh. In the old days, we had standards!
@Zacharee1 yes there are plans for autohide - it has been approved - and I strongly suspect will be done during/shortly after the rewrite of the panel code in the upcoming budgie-desktop v11. github.com/budgie-desktop/budgie-desktop/issues/315
@Zacharee1 if you are using ppa:budgie-remix/ppa you can install the budgie-welcome app - in the recommendations page you get an autoinstall and autoconfigure option
yes - it uses the same GNOME dconf settings - so if you can override ALT+TAB in gnome-shell .... in theory you can do the same trick in budgie .... famous last words!
Presumably, run dconf-editor and search for switch or similar. On Cinnamon, it's alttab-switcher so it might be ctrltab-switcher but I don't really know. Presumably it will be somewhere under org/budgie/desktop/keybindings
no - and a good job it doesnt --- gnome extensions seem to break with each and every gnome version. you can write budgie-applets using a stable API - so applets dont break with each revision of budgie-desktop.
Don't remember seeing a question here like "Are there any independent X11 based app switchers available?" i.e. app switchers that are not fixed to their window-manager.
@fossfreedom do you know off the top of your head if budgie supports "focus under mouse"? That's probably the single most important desktop feature for me.
I'm using Budgie Desktop currently, and I really enjoy it. It's got good battery life, customizability, stability and speed, but there's just one thing that bothers me; it doesn't have a real app switcher. Pressing Alt + Tab will switch apps, but no dialog appears, and it doesn't allow me to sele...
It's where any window your mouse is over automatically has the focus. So you i) don't need to click in order to interact with a window and ii) can type in one window while having another on top of it. It's a very, very old X feature. Probably from UNIX. It's been that way ever since I first switched to Linux anyway and is the one thing I miss the most whenever I'm forced to change OS.
In computing, the focus indicates the component of the graphical user interface which is selected to receive input. Text entered at the keyboard or pasted from a clipboard is sent to the component which has the focus. Moving the focus away from a specific user interface element is known as a blur event in relation to this element. Typically, the focus is withdrawn from an element by giving another element the focus. This means that focus and blur events typically both occur virtually simultaneously, but in relation to different user interface elements, one that gets the focus and one that gets...
@terdon if you can do that under gnome-shell then yes will work under budgie - off the top of my head I don't remember such a feature though in gnome-shell.
Yeah gnome has it. Unless the gnome devs in their infinite version decided to remove even that basic functionality, just in case anyone found Gnome usable by mistake.
Gnome2 most certainly had it.
And cinnamon used gnome shell still, I think, and that has it.
@terdon I can scroll on a second window while the 1st one is on top. I think it was same for all Ubuntus I used. But I could never type without changing focus mode.
Personally, I use "focus under mouse" and disable "click to raise". That way, I can click without raising the window and raise with one of i) click on the title bar; ii) Alt+click iii) Alt+up arrow
@fossfreedom I mean, there are a few things that'd be awkward, but it seems like the style, even though it only has desktops in mind, works well for tablets
Huh, the Linux version of Deus Ex Mankind Dividend has been pirated before the Windows version. Just when you think the world couldn't go any further around the twist.
@ThomasWard : Hi Thomas ! :) Thank you ! :) Have you ever seen someone who got it managed to purge the booted kernel from within the running system ? :D
@ThomasWard : But you are right ... there are always some people out there who try out everything "unbelievable" possible to ruin their systems ... :D :D :D
@Rinzwind: The stereotypical lazy German construction worker says on Monday: "Only five days left till weekend!" ("Noch fünf Tage, denn is' wieder Wochenende.")
@cl-netbox I upgrade the kernels this way - sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade; sudo apt-get autoremove will have a tendency to nuke kernels that linux-kernel-generic or w/e it is that I use doesn't point at
it "removes" the running kernel's software, but leaves it in temporary memory until the reboot
once it reboots, the new kernel is loaded, and the old is 'gone'
@ThomasWard Interesting ... I always install a new kernel ... reboot ... purge old kernel (headers + images) ... reboot ... the safest way to avoid trouble ... IMHO ... right ? :)
@ThomasWard: I'm surprised that Apt/dpkg lets you install the package of a running kernel. Whenever I try that (accidentally or out of curiosity) the pre-removal script gives me big warning message that makes me jump through a few hoops to confirm that I want to that.
@DavidFoerster @ThomasWard : In fedora this is different : when you want to purge the running kernel, you receive a notification that it's impossible to do it ! :)
But otherwise yes, you can remove kernel files. However you may run into issues if you later try to plug in a device that needs to load a kernel module or firmware file that was included with that kernel package.
@ThomasWard: I meant "remove" not "install" of course.
