@NathanOsman So remember how I said I was eventually going to create a Q&A for setting up GPU passthrough with KVM + QEMU? Well, apparently some kernel parameters and stuff have changed since I originally did it on 14.04, so now I have to spend time tinkering trying to make it work on 16.04 :D

@SergiyKolodyazhnyy Huh? Now Ubuntu really starts to look like Windows 10 :)

@JacobVlijm Kinda. Although what I meant to say is that they might have learned from your script

@SergiyKolodyazhnyy Ah, thanks :)
@SmokeDetector idk, spammer, does it?
@SergiyKolodyazhnyy I think you just found the reason to use GNOME

@TheWanderer It'll take more than that to make me use GNOME
Although sysadmin salary is a good reason

@SmokeDetector unsure about that one - question seems legit but contains a not really necessary and potentially spammy link
@ByteCommander Done. Although the OP is very active on the network, Matt's a mod on ELU. I'll ask him to accept next time I see him in chat or you could just leave a comment.
Hmm, did not check that. Just looked at the question date. But fine, it's a CW anyway, so it doesn't matter to me though.
Sure. And posting the CW answer is absolutely the right thing to do.

Complex text layout (abbreviated CTL) or complex text rendering refers to the typesetting of writing systems in which the shape or positioning of a grapheme depends on its relation to other graphemes. The term is used in the field of software internationalization, where each grapheme is a character. Scripts which require CTL for proper display may be known as complex scripts. Examples include the Arabic alphabet and scripts of the Brahmic family, such as Devanagari or the Thai alphabet. Many scripts do not require CTL. For instance, the Latin alphabet or Chinese characters can be typeset by simply...

When bounty doesn't help AT ALL, @cl-netbox Well tried what you told me to do, It's just not working, maybe it's just old software and that's it, || If someone writes a good answer saying just this point that DDCcontrol is an old piece of code (and some explanation) I'd at least award bounty (which is going to go to waste anyway).
at least other users should know that this isn't right way to go about it
I'm just saying, almost free bounty here for being theoretical

unpopular opinion: material design is awesome.
@KazWolfe Well, material has grown on me a little, but I still much prefer Holo
17:20
i'm not talking about the theme -- i'm referring to the design practice itself.
you can do things the material way with a holo theme.
e.g., what's outlined here: material.io/guidelines

@KazWolfe posting personal info is not allowed I would assume :)

Q: Combine [vi] and [vim] tags

rlee827We should combine the [vi] and the [vim] tags. From the [vi] tag wiki: Questions about the text editor "vi" or "vim" I am not sure whether to keep the [vi] tag or the [vim] tag, but I don't think there is a reason to keep two separate tags.

"Can I get tips on the care and maintenance of my houseplant?"
"Please be specific. Is it a fern or a cactus, or something else? Care and maintenance will vary depending on your answer"
"Allow me to be more specific. My houseplant is three years old. It is sixteen inches tall. I named it 'Carl'. I bought it at Steve's Plants on 33d and Market Ave from a man named Emilio."
"That is not enough detail."
"Do you need Emilio's last name too? I can dig that up if necessary"

That's pretty epic.
we need wolf squad back @ByteCommander and @SergiyKolodyazhnyy
what for?
easy. wolves are awesome.
@NathanOsman When you get a chance you really should pull the latest version and clear the data, I think you'll like this tutorial lib we found
19:20
I actually waited for a more exciting answer.
Like felines taking over the world and having to be stopped or whatever.
but that would be factually incorrect
not incorrect
just alternatively correct
I am not Sean Spicer.
@AndroidDev Okay.
19:39
thomas is online.
but ignoring us. :(
just the silence before the storm/orbital laser strike
@KazWolfe you
ignoring you
@KazWolfe wait really?
I thought we'd found the bush he was hiding in
@TheWanderer Yes.
proof: sean spicer does not have over 20k rep on AU
or does he C_C
because if he is you...
would spicer know what ubuntu is, even?
19:49
@KazWolfe We might have it back at some point. Not yet though. I'm not exactly in the wolf mood lately
but wolf
@KazWolfe idk, I'm asking him right now, aren't I?
@TheWanderer no, you're not.
you're asking kaz.
and who's to say Kaz isn't Spicer?
20:00
kaz's name is not spicer.
or is it
Kaz Spicer Wolfe.
even kaz is technically a separate entity from his "owner"
Illuminati confirmed.
Cue the tinfoil hat.
@NathanOsman oh shut up and fix Chat Exchange :p

@AndroidDev i love how you have this saved.
but seriously though, do you have any idea why SE isn't taking these cookies @NathanOsman? maybe abother redirect thing?
i blame android
I mean, yeah
we should really be programming for iOS
@KazWolfe Actually, I don't have it saved. I just remembered it and searched the history for "awooo" :D
I confirmed beyond a shadow of a doubt that the acct cookie is in the new tokens.
20:03
let's all get iPhones
So really, it must be a parsing thing.
@NathanOsman yeah it's definitely there
but your RF isn't working with it either
@TheWanderer Let's get Kaz to buy us all iPhones.
because if I try to add room 222 (which you need to be logged in to see) it says not found
@TheWanderer Stupid cookie formatting guidelines that nobody follows...
20:04
lel
@NathanOsman hey, you joke, but i'm more okay with iPhones now that the NFC chip is enabled for devs.
@TheWanderer I for one will not be porting this to iOS, considering I do not own a Mac
:P
you can dev for iOS on Windows
I own a Mac. It's got 4 GB of RAM.
Swift is actually OSS
20:04
@TheWanderer Native apps, though?
@NathanOsman yum yum yum -- Chrome, probably
@TheWanderer wat. since when?
OSx86 (from the names OS X and x86) is a collaborative hacking project to run the OS X operating system on non-Apple personal computers with x86 architecture on x86-64 processors. The effort started soon after the June 2005 Worldwide Developers Conference announcement that Apple would be moving its personal computers from PowerPC to Intel microprocessors. A computer built to run this type of OS X is also known as a Hackintosh, a Portmanteau of the word "hack" and the name of Apple's main model of computers, Macintosh. Hackintoshed notebook computers are also called "Hackbooks". The Apple software...
@AndroidDev Since Swift.
@TheWanderer No, I'm running Windows Server 2012 in a VM. That's where the RAM went.
20:05
@KazWolfe They need to stop naming languages after celebrities.
You have to do everything manually and i think still build on a mac, but you can do the coding on Windows/Linux
can you check your RF though? maybe it's doing/not doing something
@TheWanderer I'll have a look later.
@NathanOsman you mean after freight companies, right?
@KazWolfe ehhhhhhh..... I have an AMD CPU, so uh I don't think I could hackintosh even if I wanted to
20:05
oke
@KazWolfe What about testing?
@NathanOsman >_>
wait wrong message
@KazWolfe Pretty sure Apple's Official Naming Committeeâ„¢ isn't into freight.

beautiful acronym
@KazWolfe is old now that we have i9.

@NathanOsman There is no i9.
Oops. I wasn't supposed to say that.
@KazWolfe Yes there is

I could get a 1TB mSATA SSD for less!
Intel has never and will never make a processor with DRM.
@AndroidDev No... there isn't.

@KazWolfe does someone want a Ryzen?
Raises hand
@AndroidDev 404 again
@NathanOsman Ryzens* hand
@NathanOsman +1
@KazWolfe you're trolling
I hear Intel CPUs work better with Dolphin though.
20:09
@AndroidDev duh
@NathanOsman wat
@AndroidDev (Is it obvious? I refuse to acknowledge the i9's existence because bs DRM)
@NathanOsman It's a matter of IPC. It'll be much better with Ryzen than Vishera chips
@TheWanderer digital rights management
DRM = Don't Really Mind

20:13
@NathanOsman btw did you see @heynnema's question?
he pinged you but I'm not sure if you saw it
yup. that's a thing
@AndroidDev I did see it.
you need to buy these RAID keys to enable certain RAID modes.
20:14
I'm not familiar with that library.
dafuq intel
> The caveat is that Intel will force the use of a hardware key and is expected to charge in the order of one hundred to hundreds of dollars for RAID 1 and RAID 5 support. The solution is also expected to be limited to Intel’s own PCIe NVMe SSDs for boot support, which is a real shame for users licking their lips at multiple Samsung 960 Pros in an array.
this means no RAID 1, 5, 10, or 01.
Yeah, I totally agree that we all should start soldering our own CPUs in our backyard.

or just use Ryzen
The Intel X299 platform is just garbage. Basically they got scared about Threadripper and decided they needed to do something fast......

was that the clock guy
The Ahmed Mohamed clock incident occurred when a 14-year-old student, Ahmed Mohamed, was arrested on September 14, 2015, at MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas, for bringing an alleged hoax bomb to school. The incident ignited allegations of racial profiling and Islamophobia from some media and commentators. The episode arose when Mohamed reassembled the parts of a digital clock in an 8-inch (20 cm) pencil container, and brought it to school to show his teachers. His English teacher thought the clock resembled a bomb and subsequently confiscated it and reported Mohamed to the school's principal...

You can't make this stuff up.
Take your pick.
