that is handy. you should add that to some question where my answer was don't parse tool output when they talked about an objdump wrapper to just get hex values
I sort of wish I could get a scatterplot of my profile views. You know X being date, Y being minute, each dot being a view, and my chat/question activity being ploted on the same graph overlay.
Sorry, I just had a moment when I searched cache for opencl and got youtube-dl but no obvious candidate for opencl-dev. The headers is nice...but that so shouldn't cover the link-step.
Instructions should be on the right, directly above the submit code button.
Title, Meta Data and Description can stay on the left.
Hint could be an extra tab on the right, so the right would switch between Instructions and Hint, Either above or below that tabbing thingy the Submit Code button.
Cause right now Submit Code just takes up unnecessary space.
Now, if only the rest of the site was remotely in compliance with the new code UI ...
Cause the change from code UI to track overview is ... weird.
Also: Massive brightness contrast ...
Okay, enough rambling about this, back to the topic of this room, I guess. cough
I smell troll askubuntu.com/questions/264103/… - configuration recommendation for a Win 7 in VMware for photoshop and goes out of their way to criticize gimp
Does out of the box support hardware acceleration pass-through is the feature I'ld worry about on both video and processor. It just reeks of complaining veiled as a question.
Then say, I must use PS or I'ld prefer to use photoshop.
I've excluded possible answers by saying "I'ld prefer this for these reasons" before.
Just saying "I don't have time for XYZ" is a lot like saying "Come to my house, fix my PC, then crouch down really low so I can kick you in the teeth without expending much effort"
But I'm the type of person who responds to that offer of a kick in the teeth with an offer of my own. Dumb questions warrant dumb answers and bitchy questions warrant bitchy answers.
Which is exactly why I avoid that type of question.
Sooo ... totally unrelated topic: As we kinda sorta know the Steambox will run on a linux kernel, how many people do we expect to ask on AU about Steambox issues if and when it's released, thanks to Steam for Ubuntu?
And how long do we expect it to take until a dedicated Steam SE is raised from the depths of Area51?
Cause I also kinda doubt Arqade is gonna be happy about getting even more technical when this thing hits.
It depends on the question. How do I run Ubuntu on my steambox is as valid as any other how do I run Ubuntu on this retarded restricted platform ( waits for cynicism to stop dripping ). I could be grossly mistaken though. The guys at valve could be epic wrapped in awesome wrapped in beast wrapped in delicious like a turbaconducken
@AbrahamVanHelpsing I don't want Epic wrapped in anything. o.O
And, of course that type of question would be on-topic. I'm more referring to the "I can't get my Steambox to do [X]! They said it uses Linux, so hey guys, ubuntu is linux right?"
(best example I could think of btw: "Can't connect to the Internet." - Seems reasonably easy to happen, and complicated for the "average consumer", and makes "sense" to be asked here in conclusion.)
Also, hello @user121604 who randomly popped up here. Anything we can help you with?
@Seth saw your question in meta: meta.askubuntu.com/questions/6261/… If one looks at things from a "formal" accessibility POV, there are a lot of things that may need fixing. But, nowadays, accessibility doesn't seem to get much attention.
What I was more getting at is it can be either: a) Pure Awesome the Things that Unicorns are Made from (PATUM) OR b) Yet Another Locked hardware Platform (YALP)

I just updated to Natty and now the default top panel has icons for mail, chat, and power (lock, restart, etc.) In Lucid and Maverick I could just right click on them and remove from panel, but that doesn't seem to work anymore.

You can no longer add/remove indicators or panels by right-clicking like you used to with older Ubuntu versions before 11.10.
Warning: The default indicators (messages, networking, power, sound, user accounts, etc.) are tightly integrated with Unity since Ubuntu 11.10, and trying to remove th...
@AmithKK I know by now: When you are in a chat in facebook, you paste a image link there but you never see an image (viceversa here). Well, with this software you enter a picture there, it give you a code, paste the code into the chat and you will se tha picture in the chat.
@jokerdino I would assume the stock applications are slowly moved to Qt/KDE equivilents but I have no basis for that other than to say it would simplify the selection of UI toolkits where space is premium (eg the CD)...
Well I suspect any answer would be about getting whatever the VM system is to look at the discrete graphics card instead of the running one and that's all host-side (which is Ubuntu here). It's more of an Optimus-plus-VM than Android.
How do I change default settings of Vim editor such as setting auto indent, setting Tab space to 4 and changing text colors? Also how to set vim as the default code editor?
*This one* is a bad infinite-listy question but we've always had overlap with other sites. This would probably fare better on programmers.SE but it's on-topic. Whether or not it's a good enough question is something else.

And I can't imagine I'll upgrade my license until I get fed up of ST2 running on Python 2.5 (it doesn't have list-comprehensions in its syntax so thinks `{f.name: f for f in list_of_fs}` is sqwonky)... And that doesn't annoy me that much.
For once in my life I have an editor that does everything I want, pretty much the way I want it to. It's an odd sensation.

There are quite a few list type questions that are present in the site. Are these type of questions alright and/or encouraged ?
As a PHP developer what plugins should I install for Vim? What functionalities I can expect from Vim?
