@JorgeCastro I think that's being charitable -- and is the exception rather than the rule. An experienced user with ~150 questions and that accept rate probably means he's either asking incredibly difficult questions, or he's not following up, whether to clarify and work with the answerers to make an answer acceptable to him or simply to return and look at the posted answers to consider if any are acceptable.
" If you see a high percentage, it’s an engaged user, someone who frequently goes back and interacts with their questions after asking.
It is considered good manners to accept answers on your questions, eventually, but accepting answers is not required. In general, an accept rate of 70% or better is quite good, meaning you accept answers on 7 out of 10 questions that you ask."
I am not sure if this is the right place to post this inquiry.
In AU, I have an old account with only 1 rep which I have used for about a week. I forgot the password for that account so I then created a new account (this account) which I have been using for almost a month now.

Since it was closed by five independent votes, I doubt it's an obvious "mistake". As one of the close-voters, here's my reasoning:
The how-do-I-forbid-update part was addressed extensively in the linked original from the same user

Now, per that FAQ, if that OP were not just "experienced" but an "an engaged user, someone who frequently goes back and interacts with their questions after asking", we probably wouldn't be in this predicament...
@fossfreedom It literally is a one-line fix (removal, not configurability), so I wonder why the dev's have tagged the bug report "low-priority...we have tons of other things to do" and left it as wishlist...perhaps I'll do it anyway.
@jokerdino For now I have something building to address the current AU bountied Q -- get the source and muck around in a couple of hours?
... I was reading around on this - that icon appears I think on single monitors but does different stuff on multimonitors - appears on one monitor - doesnt appear on another monitor. So may not be "simple"...
I almost never have a need to use the 'Show Desktop' functionality. Having it in the alt-tab means when I attempt to quickly alt-tab, I sometimes wind up activating this unwanted functionality.
Please add an option (configurable via CCSM, gconf, config files, whatever) to remove this entry from the alt-tab switcher.
Unity
Wishlist / Triaged
@izx make a bzr branch and propose it
well, me or LOT can do that bit as we have bug triager status on LP
additionally, i can nag at the devs in the IRC channel
@fossfreedom Well, when someone says "I want it out of my switcher no matter what" I take them at face value :p (but someone testing it out on multimon would be good)
I was wondering what is the best web development tools out there?
I know about lampp and have this on one of my systems, what I am looking for a great editor.

@JamshidHashimi If your modem is DHCP, it will either pass that on OR an internal router will give you a LAN DHCP IP -- why are you setting that interface to static then?
@jrg Heh, I got a wheely office chair, took out the rug in the room, and now I wheel myself between computers. My laziness just blew away my physical fitness. My only hope now is that my metabolism can handle my diet.
I'm using Firestarter on Ubuntu 12.04.
I configured Firestarter to run even after closing in the preferences menu.
But still it exits after closing.
It doesn't minimize to system tray.
@jokerdino I think, Tom was interested to include an answer for saving .debs from cache and then make a local repo . Though it is not needed. And I think, He didn't understand your comment or doesn't know the fact that, saving skype involves only saving a file, which can easily be reinstalled without creating any local repo.
I put this into a question but no one responded, but does anyone know how to get this option for the radeon driver working? `Option "ReverseDDC" "boolean" When BIOS connector informations aren't available, use this option to reverse the mapping of the 2 main DDC ports. Use this if the X server obviously detects the wrong display for each connector. This is typically needed on the Radeon 9600 cards bundled with Apple G5s. The default is off. `
Time to time, I get a new user that is committed to their problem, and I would like to help, but the comment lists are getting very long, which StackExchange apparently discourages. I would like to get the user to at least have temporary rights to chat. Is it acceptable to ask a moderator for the...
I'm responsible for an older web server. Sometime of the applications / daemons use a lot of memory (Java) and it causes the box to get slow and unresponsive. We're working on building a new box, but until that's complete I've found that rebooting the system daily seems to keep it running smooth....
Bounty offered: How can I install Oracle 11g R2 in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? http://askubuntu.com/questions/168522/how-can-i-install-oracle-11g-r2-in-ubuntu-12-04-lts?atw=1 #oracle
What I meant in randomly, I search for questions with with high votes and read its answers and vote. I then go to unanswered questions and scan through the answers and vote.
@msP: If you have the time, look for questions that have one or more all zero-voted answers, but one of the answers deserves an upvote -- this helps decrease AUs "unanswered a" rate
@msPeachy I think, One or two is normal. because, I myself sometimes praise an answer, visit the profiles of his answers /questions and when I find more good answers, I upvote. i think, this is a normal process. But this becomes bad when done intentionally and serially. IMO
