@Jivings I completely misread your answer!

Jivings

@AlexChamberlain When?

Alex Chamberlain

A: Rebooting the system

My first thought would be this is a firmware issue. Try updating the firmware using Hexxeh's tool, it appears to be the easiest way for Debian users to update (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). You can download the tool from his GitHub repository here. Arch Linux users should already hav...

Jivings

Oh right. Yeah, I thought it was an odd comment.

@AlexChamberlain Btw, I just wrote a response to your web browser question.

A: Do we need web-browser specific tags?

The reason for this is that previously all questions under web-browsers were tagged web. According to the web tag wiki it is for web browsers. Questions regarding the installation and use of web browsers. Knowing this, we decided to retag the relevant questions to web-browsers. This left an...

O I read that

I agree - upvoted @dunsmoreb

dunsmoreb

Coolio. Just thought you might want to know. =P

Btw, can we get that question deleted?

Alex Chamberlain

I've VTD'd

Pester @Jivings

and then I'll flag

dunsmoreb

Can't we just annoy the mods in their room?

Alex Chamberlain

I can flag it now?

dunsmoreb

Ya, I guess you could. But that could take a while. =/

Alex Chamberlain

18:11

I don't know whether my flag gets precedence because I have access to mod tools?

dunsmoreb

No. I hope not.

Alex Chamberlain

18:28

Is it worth tagging questions with good "tutorial-style" answers as tutorial?

and start tagging faq-suggested?

dunsmoreb

No.

Do not ever do this.

We had a discussion about doing this except with faq, but we decided against it. Let me find the discussion...

Alex Chamberlain

@dunsmoreb Have you got a reason?

dunsmoreb

Read in the general area of this chat with Shog9.

Jun 18 at 20:46, by Shog9

@dunsmoreb Well, yes, you should tag them - just make the tag(s) describe the questions. If you want to group them together in some sort of meta-faq, link to them from a tag wiki (or wikis).

So far we our editing the appropriate tag wikis to link to them.

For example, both debian and archlinux have a common questions section.

If you want, we could post a community faq meta post. Kinda like on Meta Stack Overflow.

hi there.

dunsmoreb

Hello.

ACarter

Do you think a "What are the differences between os1 and os2?" is a not-too-subjective question?

dunsmoreb

It's not subjective at all. But I don't think it's very constructive. =/

ACarter

(Out of interest) Why?

dunsmoreb

What benefit does it provide to future users?

And not only that, but the list would be infinitely long.

But I wouldn't VTC.

ACarter

19:05

Benefit? Well, if you're wondering what distro to use, you want to know the differences.

dunsmoreb

Like I said, I personally don't think it's constructive. But I wouldn't VTC.

ACarter

I'm not sure whether to go for it or not.

dunsmoreb

What's the question?

ACarter

"What are the differences between os1 and os2?" or similar

dunsmoreb

Allow it to stay.

ACarter

19:07

Anyway, I don't really have the time now to ask it anyway. I ought to be doing music.

dunsmoreb

Hint, so I can prepare? =P

ACarter

Wasn't intended to be, but if you want to see it that way... :P

dunsmoreb

So I assume that's a know? D=>

ACarter

:D How's Pibake coming along?

dunsmoreb

Okay.

@Jivings Is doing his thing and I'm working on the website.

@BryanDunsmore Yes!

Bryan Dunsmore

@OliverSalzburg Yo dawg! =D

Oliver Salzburg

Wattup? :D

Bryan Dunsmore

Nothing. Whattup with you?

Oliver Salzburg

Reading questions... :)

Bryan Dunsmore

Haha. I'm working on the website. I'm trying to find my mockup though! D=>

Got it! =D

@BryanDunsmore What is the RP community project?

Bryan Dunsmore

@OliverSalzburg It basically is a way to create an image of your desired os + applications.

Read the transcripts for a much more detailed explanation.

Oliver Salzburg

@BryanDunsmore Thanks, I was looking for a summary :)

Bryan Dunsmore

@OliverSalzburg Here is a quote from @Jivings.

in RPi Community Project, Jun 27 at 16:23, by Jivings

What I was thinking was a website that allows users to select a distro and a number of packages.

Oliver Salzburg

Thanks :)

Bryan Dunsmore

You're welcome. =P

Btw, since you're active on Super User. Can you review my answer?

A: Google Chrome AutoCorrect?

Currently there is no support for auto correct in Google Chrome. There is an open issue on the Chromium source code, issue 7624 to be precise, that wants to add support for auto correct. But this is not functional and the last update is from February 17, 2010. This leaves extensions as your only...

Oliver Salzburg

23:44

@BryanDunsmore I also read your post on [meta.su] :D

Bryan Dunsmore

@OliverSalzburg Which one?

Oliver Salzburg

Oh, I thought there was only one :D

Let me check

Bryan Dunsmore

Haha. I love meta. =P

Oliver Salzburg

Q: Merge [multi-user] into [multiple-users]

Merge the tag mutli-user into multiple-users. They refer to the same concept and the term multiple users is a little more clear than multi user. And to convince you, I have dragged up the relic that is Trogdor the Burninator!

support tags tag-synonym-request

Bryan Dunsmore

Which is why my Meta Stack Overflow account is my second highest rep.

Oliver Salzburg

23:45

I was like "Hey, I know that guy!"

Bryan Dunsmore

I actually was reading over some of my old meta posts and @Jivings commented on one of them before this site was started. =P

I was like, Is that Jivings from Raspberry Pi?!
