@Seth Yes I face the delima of throwing away two 4GB modules in order to add two 8 GB modules... problem is I don't really need more RAM I just want it :p
Yeah it is $100 which is why I spent the last $100 (plus change) on a 240 GB SSD which I really didn't need either as the 128 GB isn't full and the 500 GB HDD is only used for storing music which is only accessed to copy to phone. Now days though I'm wanting new machine with USB 3.1 / Thunderbolt, 4K screen, PCI.2, etc. etc. which the current laptop doesn't have. And i7 seventh generation too of course :)
Can you tell me how to use the custom flag? The last time I tried it, it appeared that I was flagging the thread as a problems with the user. I'll try it again the next time I think it's needed... to look for an option that doesn't appear to be flagging a problematic user.
That moment when you boot a laptop you haven't used in a while but the wi-fi passkey box dissapears whenever you hit caps lock. Over and over...Until you remember you swapped caps lock and escape.
Not my fault he's using my Trump card I've fine tuned over years :D
Anyways the psychology experiment worked... you hijack the thought and pull it to the extreme and people think "oh no wait he's really not THAT bad". :)
But at the end of the day we all have character flaws and he does excellent work here and has great answers and comments. I'm probably far worse than anyone with drinking and typing and what not character flaws. Probably 90% of answers are under the influence.... heck right now I'm at four beers.

So, apparently gparted upstream and redhat people don't agree on who's responsible for the fix and neither one will do it for now. Underlying issue is new security in wayland. 2 workarounds: 1) log out and use X11 2) run 'xhost +local:' before starting gparted
true. logging out was a pain but now that I discovered the xhost command it's not a big deal. this will affect a lot of legacy apps over time. we'll see what mir does along these lines.
In the old days you lived in an apartment above your work place. Transportation was a flight of stairs :)
Actually now if you are a developer and use the internet to deliver your programs I guess you could live anywhere when your clients are all over the world!
@WinEunuuchs2Unix Yeah, that's true about developers. When I was doing my launcher-list-indicator (or maybe it was the lock-key-status indicator), I collaborated with a guy from India . . .I think. And for example, Nathan - he's in Canada, but we worked on a couple things. But if you're in long-distance relationship like me, transportation can be a little bit of a PITA, especially when it requires trans-pacific flights
There are many distributions based on Arch linux are releasing now days.
So, What is the difference between arch and ubuntu?
And Why Ubuntu uses apt-get while Arch uses pacman -s command while the both distributions based on Linux.
To make it worse I had just used /dev/null on my Conky instead of 2>&1 so it was fresh in my memory
@muru Well we could have reworded his question to take out alias and then two answers could have been posted....one with your function and one with my script :)
Being somewhat functionally challenged I would have voted for my script personally ;)
@WinEunuuchs2Unix what I wonder is what's preventing you from posting your script on the other question. You could wrap that in a script just as well as you could wrap it in a function
You could have done that instead of wasting the past ten minutes?
@WinEunuuchs2Unix so, copy the answer and paste it into the answer box of the other question. That notice doesn't automatically delete your draft, IIRC
@Seth Haha, it was a bit silly; I thought he meant: you need to ask it here <link>, but the link was just the page to the "how to behave here" -page, and I got confused. I am obviously a total noob there. :). Today attempt 2...

@ThomasWard Not going to look it up,but there are two major discussions on meta: one coming to the conclusion that custom kernels are off-topic and one the exact opposite, so IMHO: free for all!

You open the application, select an area to record, choose a filename to save it, and do your thing so it can record.

@JourneymanGeek awww, it's on software recommendations, I don't have account there. Also . . . kinda made me remember that we have whole lot of awesome devs here . . .byzans was written by fossy
@JourneymanGeek That doesn't seem all that bad, actually. I was expecting something much worse. There don't seem to be any problematic additives and most of the changes are mechanical.
Still, as far as I'm concerned there's bread and "that thing that looks like bread".
Yeah, the gold tag hammer gets some getting used to. And then you graduate to the mod hammer and run away in terror because "OMG! ALL my votes are binding!"
@Rinzwind Thank you ! :) Then it must have been the OP - he was very unfriendly ... wrote some comments which he deleted later. Normally we shouldn't answer such broad questions ... but ...
@Rinzwind True ... it SHOULD be hidden of course - that's why I wrote : "As snapd is "work in progress" - maybe another default directory can be selected in the future." :)
@Rinzwind By the way ... user-dirs.dirs : wrote an answer (which I think is quite good) concerning that file today. :)
I'm having duplicate icons for Telegram messenger in LXDE. I found a question asking just that, but for another window managers: XFCE and MATE.
What should I do to get an answer for LXDE desktop environment: start a new question or modify the existing one? (how?)
I'm afraid that my question won...
