@jokerdino >_>
OK Am lost, from where should I start reading
@Seth Just freeze the room and sit in here.
That doesn't work very well.
jrg unfroze it himself.
FLAG BOMB
I'm back!
besides, if you don't what flags, what did you want to be a moderator for???
This site need cleaning up.
majorly.
04:02
@Seth diamond
go figure.
The mod wars are not over yet
and swags
I'm going to form an alliance with @LuisAlvarado :>
Just in case, I already flagged some tough ones
04:02
Let's invade Pluto
O_O
Wait, wrong target
@Seth You need to break it into something smaller.
On Arqade, we march!
Which part of the site are we cleaning up?
04:03
\_/

/ \
The dirty part.
alien from Pluto.
@jokerdino good grief.
@RolandiXor oooh, that part.
THE WHOLE THING!!!
04:04
@jokerdino :P
We're only the oh, second worst site in the network...
For answer rate.
If we are going to do the cleaning... we need people to find what needs cleaning... I wonder who could it be...
@RolandiXor If your cat looks like that, you have bigger problems, I suppose.
Not people.
@LuisAlvarado I do it all the time.
04:05
hehehe I know
And so does @EliahKagan and @Aditya
But we can't be the only people.
@maggotbrain oh?
@Seth Well, i can delete all the unanswered questions.
To tell you the truth, this week am trying to find a job, and on the weekend I'll be finishing the last stuff of my previous job
On my planet that's how most cats look... I see.
04:06
And between us, we're the only people who darken the Reg Rooms door 99% of the time.
Am just telling you this, so we can coordinate better next week to do some spring cleaning on the site
It would help if we could add a feed to the room that would post old questions...
and had more people in there.
@Seth Do you find the reg room helps you in cleaning up?
@Seth Mods are supposed to not act uninitiated.
I would recommend using the SE data explorer
04:07
We also need more people to answer questions, not just delete/close them.
@jokerdino Lots of things in the reg room.
@RolandiXor am with you on that one
When one of the clan is active.
I have seen many good questions without an answer and I am pretty sure if it had an answer it would get a lot of viewers.
@Seth so, you need mods to be active in the other room?
04:08
@maggotbrain Well, it did, but there aren't many people who help out...
Mods and users to help hunt.
well, if you are looking for my input, i would say this:
I try to hunt up a couple questions every day, though sometimes I forget to post them in the room..
catch all the new questions that go unanswered every week and bucket pile them.
How about we make a group that focuses on this. Not only communicating via this chat but also G+ Hangouts, emails or empath... I mean google chat lol
@Seth That's not true. Many just lurk and edit.
Myself included. For better or worse.
04:09
@LuisAlvarado same here
@maggotbrain Oh?
That's encouraging.
Well I need to go now.
@Seth nights
@Seth it's true
@Seth Well, once I hit 2k, I find myself doing more editing, and I like it.
Basically my point: I don't think people know we have a room for this.
04:11
@Seth good night cousin!
Night, @Seth
So I was trying to drum up awareness.
@Seth meta topic →
@RolandiXor Eh... how many active meta users do we have?
@Seth not enough, yet.
04:12
@Seth misplaced emphasis again :>
Same for the reg room.
But we new mods will fix that, right @Luisjokerado?
I can say that I have the next week completely free. What we would need now is this questions:

1. What type of Questions are we looking for?
2. What type of answers are we looking for?
3. Are we going to take into consideration variables like How long a question was made without an answer, How many votes or views it received, If it has an answer, did it get upvoted or downvoted
4. anything else

This is all to start creating many Queries to check the site better
@RolandiXor That's right!! Go Go Power Rang... I mean US!
@LuisAlvarado lololol
We haz queries:
23
Q: How can we improve the site's answered rate?

Jorge CastroAccording to this our answered rate (percentage of questions with an upvoted answer) is now 76%. We took a big hit with the number of new questions for 12.04/12.10 and the difficulty of being able to scale with so many new questions and users; despite months of cleanup/voting/reviewing effort we...

Q: Review Old Questions?

SethHow do we deal with really old questions that don't have an accepted answer or no answer at all? I know that the 'Community User' bumps them once in a while, but is that enough? Our answered ratio is just awful, fourth worst in the network, and I think if we had a review queue or something simi...

Anyway, nighters everyone.
04:13
Let me prepare tomorrow a summary of some ideas I have and see what you guys think ok?
OK :)
See you guys, take care and we'll talk tomorrow
Phew. Now I can get some review in now that @Seth is gone. ;-)
New policy for mods:
@LuisAlvarado adios hermano!
04:18
All of them must be experts at SQL
@AmithKK I hate you now.
jk
@AmithKK or know someone who is.
You can probably close all of them ^^
@jokerdino Modify it to give out the link
Not the PostID
@AmithKK eh that much I dont know. Do you know? :D
oh hai @ajmitch. I actually was looking for you.
@ajmitch I am looking for a MOTU to help us. Have we gotten the paper work fine here? bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1126433
@jokerdino Not really
I didn't learn SQL
I think you can do that with the api?
04:26
I learned SQL, but I DROPped it FROM the TABLE
5
@maggotbrain If you can't get any reviews in because of me, yelling helps. I'll slow down ;)
I really mean it too.
@SETH !
lol

Q: How do I buy games on my prepaid?

NCasidy8I have 15 dollars in my prepaid phone account and when I go to try to buy a game it makes me add a credit card, how can I buy games using the money in my account?

wat?
Nice...
That's Ubuntu related. We can't close it.
@Seth O.o
04:33
How so?
Because.
It is sparta!
Indeed.
Becomes invincible and smashes into @Seth
Toot toot sonic warrior, You can do anything
@AmithKK no lol. I dont know how to mess with API.
04:35
eats pie
Reason: none.

Q: Can't do my software update "not enough space" but disk only half full

Michael DurrantI went to do a software update and got the message that I need to free 10.5M out of /boot I did the Trash Empty and the sudo apt-get clean but that didn't help. I deleted some files in /boot but that didn't help or change the message at all. I cleaned up my hard drive and it is now less ...

@SETH ! why you editing so much? stahp. Seth?
LOL
@Seth :D
okay folks, I'm going to do some writing
04:52
@AmithKK ?
05:09
No flags.
I guess that it is good that we don't use the tag.
I guess I should flag that Q to give @RolandiXor something to do...
05:35
BBL
I am trying to work out wikia templates I have something to do :P
05:48
@RolandiXor Where are you hanging out on wikia? I use the vim wikia quite often. Haven't explored elsewhere on the site.
Right on. very cool.
@jokerdino if you're asking for someone to review the package, you need to go through the sponsorship process, which means subscribing the ubuntu-sponsors team to the bug & making it clear that the github repo has the package, not just upstream source
@ajmitch hm, it has the source but it also includes the packaging too.
so, should i be looking for getting someone to review the package or how?
06:11
@RolandiXor and followed your wiki. thx.
@maggotbrain you're welcome :), thank you for following ^_^
 
2 hours later…
08:40
appears
@RolandiXor Want a mediawiki installation for yourself?
09:06
@AmithKK Is there any markdown wiki?
@jokerdino Tiki?
Tiki? Never heard of it. Let me see
That looks like an Inverted debian logo, right? @jokerdino
yep.
i dont know about inverted but it looks quite similar to debian's
LOL linux in segacd era
It does, alot :P
09:18
yep :P
So, they used debian to make the game. Case closed lol
09:38
I think I have a solution to a reported bug on LaunchPad, how can I post a solution, would it just be a comment?
@njallam it depends on the package
you can propose a bzr branch
or submit the fix upstream
or attach a diff file
Well, it's not really a solution.
It's more of a workaround
workarounds.. go to the mailing list and bug report.
09:46
@njallam Ah, that would be the way then.
I thought you were talking about fixing a bug.
Hey yo @AmithKK @jokerdino @njallam
@smartboyhw hi
09:58
I also put my solution as a response to this question: askubuntu.com/a/259179/72212
Upvotes all around.

@jokerdino no new answers from joker, starring instead. ;) Hi
haha, diamonds make me too cautious.
can't afford to be wrong.
@jokerdino even diamonds will be downvoted, I know that...
10:06
/me is confused
@jokerdino you can't just close-vote or flag to see what others say. That is the hardest bit.
Immediate hammer action whatever you do.
@Takkat yep that. some people hate moderation. :>
@Takkat i love and hate it.
love-hate relationships are reality
true.
EOL questions are off topic.. Can't get the hang of it yet.

Q: How to install mono 2.10.8 in ubuntu server 11.04 64bit

dnallehIt only installs 2.10.5. How to install 2.10.8 or upgrade from 2.10.5?

Flagged
10:17
Insta-closed.
@jokerdino Like!
10:42
@feichinger Awh thanks xoxo
@jokerdino Congratulation!!
Hey @Mochan
eh thanks. :)
@smartboyhw Yo :)
@jokerdino No problem, you so deserved it :))
lol sure
Also congratulations to @RolandiXor and @LuisAlvarado
@jokerdino Don't "lol sure" me. Pretty sure I voted for you, you know.
10:46
Heh. thanks for voting for me ^_^
@jokerdino Huh, how couldn't of I? Anyway - what's it like?
I didn't vote against you ;) which is sort of voting for you if you follow US elections theory...
Hiding exciting of Ubuntu for Tablet...
@Mochan it's cool. can't reveal too much ;)
@AbrahamVanHelpsing Politicians. Sigh.
@jokerdino PSH. Why?
10:47
@AbrahamVanHelpsing that works. no issues ;)
@Mochan mod agreement. everything works in secrecy.
@jokerdino Lol are you trolling or are you being serious?!
Why am I joking?
@Mochan you know I am now an Ubuntu member?
@smartboyhw I think I remember you telling me that. What is it...?
10:50
@Mochan It looks like there's a secret handshake for that:P
Real weird
@smartboyhw Waaah I'm so inferior. LOL XD
@Mochan XD
I am pretty inferior, in all seriousness.
Changing subjects. I've heard Ubuntu for Tablet is due to be released in October. Am I right?
@Mochan no no.
ok moving on.
@jokerdino ._.;;
LOL XDDD
10:53
@Mochan probably. i dont fancy a tablet
@Mochan Dunno. Just know that images will be available today
@smartboyhw Go for on-the-go without a sad little 1GB 13" :P
I'ld like a Nexus10 with Ubu if the kindle app works there. Sadly I don't see the kindle app for pc in wine trick working on an ARM device :/
@smartboyhw Cool. I ain't going near those things till there stable as a 16t solid paperweight ._.
@AbrahamVanHelpsing Oh random crap messing everything up, how we love you <3
@AbrahamVanHelpsing It might be achieved in the future. Hack all the things, bro.
it's not random. i think it's a really legitimate use case for a tablet. and if people have to choose between a kindle fire, an ipad, android, and ubuntu tablet (android has an app for it too). just saying. needs to happen.
10:59
@AbrahamVanHelpsing I completely agree (and with the random thing. I was being OTT :P) but yes - all the above support ebook apps - don't they? So it seems like a necessity to have it. Perhaps it's time to test out your coding abilities, AbrahamVanHelpsing? Nah, probably not. So much law and copyright and stupidity... >o<
It's not making an e-reader app...it's supporting a closed format. I'ld sooner try an h265 codec
@AbrahamVanHelpsing nods
Reverse engineering mastery course final:
disassemble and decompile(hex rays) the kindle e-reader app
modify the C decompilation of the application to compile with gcc
resolve library dependencies
make kindle app for native arm
(optional) incorporate pdf output funtion
Yeahh... go to someone else if you need help :3
It was kind of a joke...
Too time consuming to be viable. Amazon should produce an ARM app. They already have the source. It's just coaxing it to compile on generic arm and arm hard floating point(<--raspi)
11:07
@AbrahamVanHelpsing You're too smart for my level of intellect, Abraham.
@AbrahamVanHelpsing It's Amazon. I'd rather shoot myself. I can see Google Play Bookstore getting onto Ubuntu first.
Amazon is a leviathan. Like them or not openstack <-> amazon elastic cloud. Just saying.
11:21
appears
Oh hey @Mochan
@AmithKK o/
How many of you are in favour of me running for Ubuntu Membership?
:P
I would give you a .7
@AmithKK as the first one to give you a testimonial I am in absolute flavor
@jokerdino .7?
O.o
11:23
@AmithKK which time would you pick? 12:00 UTC or 22:00 UTC?
@AmithKK :P
If you are going to promote Freyja somehow, sure.
@smartboyhw 12
@smartboyhw in absolute flavor, what is he a steak?
6
@AbrahamVanHelpsing Hahaahaha ROTFL
@AmithKK We need to discuss on that. Remind me later?
pref. on IRC tonight or something.
11:25
@jokerdino k
cringes
ok good.
@AmithKK KK I would give you a live testimonial at the MB meeting if I am available
There is no other phrase that makes you think about all the bad things you have done in your life like "I want to have a word with you".
Nah. nothing to worry.
Just to help you with the application re: formatting and wording.
@AmithKK If the bad things are done for good reasons...but now we're on philosophy.se migration topics
11:28
When are you going to apply?
@jokerdino Depends
A week later I assume
OK cool.
@AmithKK Any time before 24-hour of the board meeting is OK
@AmithKK hope you can get more testimonials than me
:P lol thanks
11:32
@AmithKK you should link that in my question
finally
Htc and Ubuntu used the same code to do the countdown lol.
Oli
Oli
@AmithKK CONSPIRACY!!
@AmithKK is it wrong? The plugin is free
Oli
Oli
And only 24971 other web sites are also using it :)
11:43
@mojo706 No, but with the same init time
That seems oddly uncoincidental
Oli
Oli
@AmithKK It's almost certainly been proven to be a commercially strong time of day to launch something. When the poor countries are asleep and the rich ones are just sitting down to sip on their coffee.
I said that. May be it was the same person :p
@Oli hahaha nice theory
I doubt it's a theory.
If only i could feed google launch != NASA i would be able to get some useful results for you...probably.
Alright. I'm busy watching cat videos, so I'll see you all later. Byebye~
@AbrahamVanHelpsing you agree? with @Oli
11:52
yes
@Mochan ^^
It's the most reasonable explanation. The other is equally possible, but it's like saying the factory in china that's a direct copy of the factory floor in the us is built by the same person. It simply isn't.
Hello @OctavianDamiean
it is I agree
jrg
jrg
fine colin watson. I'll delete that answer. :)
Can't wait to download the Ubuntu for N7 iso, you getting in line too @OctavianDamiean?
12:39
@jrg O.o :P
Don't brick it :P
jrg
jrg
i'll let someone go first.
you have an N7?
That's evil
jrg
jrg
flashing plain ubuntu to it didn't break it, I trust them.
some screenshots afterwards will be great
12:41
@jrg Oh yea, I've been playing with the SDK for a while now. :)
jrg
jrg
@OctavianDamiean oh cool.
yeah, i saw your message about it breaking raring.
I'm also selling my old Lenovo TP X60 just to get a Galaxy Nexus.
jrg
jrg
O_o
Don't worry, I have a Samsung Series 9 notebook now. ;)
@OctavianDamiean how much for the TP x60?
12:43
@mojo706 300€
That's what I'm aiming for at least.
:P a little on the higher side
Well, for Austrian standards it is not that much.
Just performed an OEM install of 12.10.
Never done that before.
Oh god, I'm so excited.
@OctavianDamiean What is an OEM Install?
jrg
jrg
12:58
@OctavianDamiean OEM installs are cool stuff.
@mojo706 Original Equipment Manufacturer.
