No repro:

Yeah it really seems like the local server was blocking access to Ubuntu's archive... The problem disappeared fortunately — Moustafa Essam 9 mins ago

this hat is awesome

my brother actually had a hat like this...

9:25 AM

askubuntu.com/questions/889401/trying-to-install-php7/… because there is no other answer, can we upvote it?

9:38 AM

@jokerdino done :)

and flagged the comments

mucho gracias

de nada <3

obrigada voce (I usually speak Portuguese to Spanish speakers because I'm ignorant and have no Spanish)

super OT

oh wait no, it's just the answer that is super OT

oh ono

sorry, I got there from reviewing the answer in LQP

OP wants Ubuntu ISO for Mac hardware, but because of the current OS, OP is getting Ubuntu ISO for Windows hardware.

Maybe it's different, but if it is not like ^, then it's getting closed.

9:53 AM

Yes, that's what I thought on second reading. I edited it

NAA

11:51 AM

why didn't our query find this question?

12:11 PM

because answer was not by OP

check userid

oh! :) you are sharp

no

I asked someone else

that was a smart idea haha

but I figured it myself though haha

I was looking for a dupe target, but I mostly found other unanswered questions...

12:14 PM

actually, no

@Zanna maybe a "How can I find out if Ubuntu will work on my hardware?", with the main answer being "boot a live USB" , and the supporting answer being how you can lookup supported devices for various common drivers (wireless, Bluetooth, ethernet, graphics, touchpad, fingerprint reader, etc.) - broad strokes. — muru 2 hours ago

@jokerdino aren't you playing hats this year?

I'm going to post one Q&A like that now

See if you all can work it into something usable.

@muru awesome!

@Zanna haven't looked into it

Q: Will my device work with Ubuntu?

I have a device on which I would like to install Ubuntu. How do I find out if Ubuntu will work on it?

system-installation

4:51 PM

@muru there's a hat for doing this hahaha

thanks a lot!

I haven't done a thing and I have 2 hats now.

@jokerdino make it community wiki if you can.

I can!

Done, thanks.

Thanks!

@jokerdino everyone got a hat, because between us we all got 20 unique hats

the other one you may have got by casting a close vote, apparently

4:55 PM

I did a sekrit thing.

haha thanks for telling!

hmm what should I do to my meta post now?

Lets see if anyone else comes up with good ideas

yes... but maybe I should put in a link to it

I vaguely remember we having a similar post to that before.

hmm...

Q: Which computers are guaranteed to work?

Before I buy my next laptop, I'd like to make sure that it will work perfectly with Ubuntu. Is there a list of completely supported computers anywhere?

system-installation

?

yeah, we actually seem to have a similar kind of questions

https://askubuntu.com/questions/389176/is-there-database-of-linux-compatible-hardware
https://askubuntu.com/questions/430551/is-ubuntu-compatible-with-my-hardware

None of them are comprehensive though, so it would be nice to have one.

we could dupe them all to the shiny new one :D
