I am trying to run the command "sudo -u user nautilus" when I do it returns the error:

I have an 128G SSD for OS.
But I want to use leftover space for caching.
My current drive setup is : 2TBx2, 3TBx2, 500Gx1 -> all into one LVM volume group
The LVM vg is (again) divided into four logical volumes.
I'm thinking that it would be nice if I could cache the entire vg into SSD, Withou...
I have two csv files with the same structure.

@dessert It's a numbers game. Ask Ubuntu has 278,389 questions. Stack Overflow has 14,997,084 questions. If all the reputation is awarded to answerers of programming questions, AU will be reviewed and dominated by users who have never installed or used Ubuntu before. It's better to let Stack Overflow handle it.
Why do you think there's the word "Overflow" in Stack Overflow. iinm it's exactly to prevent this scenario from being forced into existence by elaborate consensus discussions. mantras are fine by me if they're any good. It's another way of freeing short term memory by pushing things onto the stack.
There is a lot on this forum about having enough reputation to post to old posts, use certain tags etc. Even though I don't post very often, my posts are definitely not spam. It is quite frustrating (and unnecessary) having to create new posts that totally relates to something that already exists...
Why are the irrelevant, confusing questions below that have outdated accepted answers not removed?
question 1
question 2
question 3
All of the above questions should be deleted or at least be marked as duplicates of this newer question.
I am integrating an API from a web provider. For this provider, I have to provide a personal webhook URL, such as http://my-server/my-webhook. I am currently in development phase, so I am doing everything on my personal laptop. I don't want to upload my webhook service to a public server after ev...

I am running Ubuntu 16.04. Recently I often find one or two "git status -z -u" process that each takes more than 5GB of memory. So I try to figure out what's going wrong. pstree gives me some output like this:
systemd──lightdm──lightdm──upstart──2*[git]
Apparently upstart started these git pro...
Sometimes I see an interesting question which has no answer yet. Later on it disappears in the timeline and I have to search for it to see if someone wrote a comment or an answer to it.
Is there a possibility to set a 'watch' on a question (sort of bookmark) to be reminded to come back later or...
@Videonauth Oh! Is that what that means? I always thought it just meant I had added a new favorite since I last clicked on the tab. Are you sure the blue thing appears when there's been activity on the post?
thank you yes i know it was meant funny, but i didn'f happen to find the situation this has happened in very funny, as you could read from my replys :)
means i have got an upvote sinde i last checked that tab and 1 response, same applies for the favorites
@Videonauth Well, what they say is true. AU has a huge amount of crap. I don't really see why you would take it personally though. It's a simple fact. It's because i) Ubuntu attracts newbie users who (naturally) ask clueless questions (this is a good thing); ii) AU is huge so a lot more crap is missed than on smaller sites like U&L and iii) the AU audience is mostly non-experts who just want to use their machines while the U&L audience is more skewed towards knowledgeable users.
If anything, what is impressive about AU is that it doesn't have more crap and that's down to the efforts of users like yourself.
@terdon yeah i get that point, this starwall just reminds me of the situation and that was after i havve spent almost 14 hours already on Au editing, reviewing and answering :)
@TheWanderer another new mispelling of Ubuntu sighted: Unbury
gives me the picture of a zombie climbing out of a grave (first though i had when readin that)
and another day with 200 reputation change :)
could go even 30 rep higher still because 30 rep of that 200 are accepts
Unburying 14. I purchased from Goodwill and they installed program. It was working fine until yesterday when an upgrade happened. — Deborah Hurt20 mins ago
And variants!
But in the OP's defense, they're writing from a phone so that's almost certainly a stupid autocomplete thing.
So.... Not to ask a really intrusive question... but I'm on the site a lot 'cause I'm mostly retired and trying to exercise my brain. I get the feeling a lot of the other people here have a job which causes them to be on this site?
Every time I turn on my computer, I see a message saying something like:
Your battery may be old or broken.
I am already aware that my battery is bad. How do I suppress this message?
Does anyone know if there's an easy way to find a list of packages installed, sorted by date, when using aptitude (or apt-get)?
I was installing a bunch of packages to try something new, and it didn't work out. I'd like to remove all of these packages, to get back some disk space.
I've tried j...
my theory: if nathans was post with No. 1 and the actually newest question is q/982239 and since SE uses SQL to store data which might work with unique keying then we have all in all 982239 questions in the database for AU
were getting close to the million
this is roughly 2 questions per registred user as average
I talked to one of the guys from the store personally, he is supposed to talk with the others about putting the website up but I kind of said I did it more to show my work with no intention of asking money for it, so I don't think I'll get anything back. I left the files there so he could show the others
to be honest I really didn't do it for any money, I think I just didn't expect he was going to accept it for free so easily lol
@NathanOsman good call, though I think if you sent it and they used without permission it would make a solid law suit, but that would be a big head ache
I think I'm going to have to change the font I'm using in another project because of a small license detail
it's free for commercial use, but it states "No modification allowed", and it doesn't have the portuguese accentuation. Guess if I add them it would be a copyright infringement
As some of you might know, the development packages in Debian-based distros do not come with a .pc file for use with pkg-config. This can make building software that looks for those files really frustrating.
