Reject : http://askubuntu.com/review/suggested-edits/511973
someone after my edit : http://askubuntu.com/posts/623908/revisions

i'm new , what did i do wrong ?

Zacharee1

10:15 PM

@AhmedKamal I guess because it wasn't really a "good" change.

@AhmedKamal You should use <kbd></kbd> to surround what should be buttons

Ahmed Kamal

but he applied it after all !

Fabby

@AhmedKamal You didn't do wrong; you just didn't do "perfect"

this is OK

kos

@AhmedKamal I agree. That was silly.

Fabby

@AhmedKamal this is <kbd>Perfect</kbd>

Mateo

@AhmedKamal that wasn't you that edited

Ahmed Kamal

10:16 PM

the <kbd></kbd> thing , this could be not critical issues , But the "F1" instead of "1" , this is critical

Zacharee1

@Fabby doesn't work in chat :p

Fabby

@Zacharee1 He can still read it...

Zacharee1

@AhmedKamal I agree it shouldn't have been rejected.

@Fabby :p :p :p

Fabby

(I wanted him to see to use the <kbd></kbd>

Zacharee1

@AhmedKamal Just remember the kbd tags for next time

Ahmed Kamal

10:17 PM

ok , thank you

Zacharee1

They might not have realized that you actually made an important change

Fabby

@AhmedKamal I would have accepted and improved and then left a comment for you to review my edits...

Zacharee1

Since it was pretty minor

kos

I don't think that edit should have been rejected though, it should have been approved and edited. The issue was critical.

Mateo

he clicked "edit" and deselected "this edit was helpful" which rejected the edit and put his edit through with the kbd tags

Fabby

10:18 PM

Not all reviewers take the time to do this... @AhmedKamal

@AhmedKamal You're welcome!

Ahmed Kamal

i see

Fabby

@kos I agree: I even have a canned comment for that...

Seth

Arduino antenna analyzer!!

Fabby

@AhmedKamal

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! **;-)** Could you please review my [edits]() and also review the [editing help](http://askubuntu.com/editing-help) to improve the readability of your questions in the future... **;-)**

That's what I leave behind...

Seth

I'm so totally making this.

Q: Easiest *non-networking* method of communication between Linux host and Windows guest

I'm developing software to run in Linux which needs to communicate with an application running in Windows as a VM (qemu). I'm aware I could use TCP or some network protocol, but that doesn't seem to be an option as we'll be passing through the NIC to the VM. I've done some reading on Virtio ser...

Fabby

@AhmedKamal you just got a lazy reviewer...

;-)

Zacharee1

@Fabby weren't you the one reviewing? :P

Fabby

But now you know about <kbd></kbd>! ;-)

If you use those: less edits will be rejected, because it shows you're a pro!

>:)

Mateo

I think it is more work to un check that box than not...

Fabby

@Seth That should help @NathanOsman find the source of the interference! ;-)

Zacharee1

10:21 PM

5.1.1 IS SO MUCH BETTER

WHY WOULD VERIZON KEEP IT FROM US

?!?!?!?!?!?!

Seth

@Fabby uh.. not really?

Fabby

(after he does an inch-by-inch radio map of his room)

Mateo

so probably not lazy per se

Ahmed Kamal

yes , i will use <kbd></kbd> in the future , cool format BTW

Zacharee1

@AhmedKamal it is ;)

Seth

10:22 PM

did I just miss a joke again?

Fabby

@Seth I was too fast! I should have put in a smiley!

:P

@Seth My fault! ;-)

Zacharee1

@Fabby Lately I can't tell when you're being sarcastic

facepalm

there! ;-)

@Seth palmface

10:22 PM

@Zacharee1 I'm always sarcastic...

Zacharee1

@Fabby that's what I have to assume

Fabby

>:)

Zacharee1

<:) - I am from France

@Seth LOL

(I think that's a line from Coneheads)

Fabby

@Zacharee1 No, really: I like to always look on the bright side!

Zacharee1

10:23 PM

@Fabby there is dark sarcasm too

darkasm?

maybe not..

kos

@AhmedKamal Anyway just so you know how it works, if an edit makes a post substantially better (in that case correcting a wrong keystroke) it indeed should be approved and feel free to send it. That was an incorrect review IMO.

Fabby

@Zacharee1 No, really: I like to always look on the bright side!

Zacharee1

watching

Fabby

@Zacharee1 Mes couilles que t'es de la France!

Zacharee1

@Fabby NO HABLO FRANÇAIS

GAWD

@Fabby LOLOLOL

I think I need to "rent" that movie

Fabby

10:26 PM

@Zacharee1 Worth it!!!

user136984

Zacharee1

Zacharee1

Fabby

@ParanoidPanda Aaawww!!! That's not going to help my small attention span: Look: squirrel!

da Boss

@RPiAwesomeness and @HeatherBrown, you guys might find this useful?

http://www.recantha.co.uk/blog/?p=13999

kos

@ParanoidPanda Totally unrelated but now that I think of it "Paranoid Panda" could have been a perfect codename for 12.04!

user136984

:D

kos

"Ubuntu 12.04 Paranoid Panda"

RPi Awesomeness

10:32 PM

Terrance

11:21 PM

@Fabby Now he asked for confirmation: askubuntu.com/questions/720007/…

@Fabby Hello, by the way. =)

Fabby

@Terrance yeah, idiot!

Terrance

@Fabby Does not surprise me after reading the other question.

Mateo

whoa, rc-proposed looks nice

Fabby

@Terrance and the comments...

I'm going to stop responding now... <Sigh>

Terrance

@Fabby True.

Dang that was hard to read.

Nathan Osman

11:31 PM

@Zacharee1 just be thankful you don't have Android 6.0.1.

They really messed up the volume control in that release.

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman Google is pulling an Apple it seems: every new x.0 release has major problems :p

@NathanOsman Did they make it so you can't manually change the different volumes from the HUD?

Nathan Osman

I'm using the Cyanogen nightlies so I get to see a lot of new bugs all the time :)

Zacharee1

That doesn't count...

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 They linked the Bluetooth and media volumes.

So now I can't control Bluetooth volume with the phone.

Mateo

Zacharee1

11:33 PM

CM isn't vanilla Android

Fabby

@Terrance What do you think of my last comment??? :D :D :D

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 No, it's better :)

Zacharee1

Mateo

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman but, but, but, the volume?

Nathan Osman

11:34 PM

@Mateo \o/

Zacharee1

@Mateo 16.04 on Nexus 4?

Nathan Osman

@Zacharee1 Well, most of it is better.

Mateo

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman hmm. Well, since I have Samsung and Verizon, I probably won't be seeing 6.x until July -_-

Fabby

@Mateo the dark dungeons of hell

Terrance

11:35 PM

@Fabby Agreed 100% to your last comment! He needs to RTFM! :D

Mateo

@Zacharee1 yeah, there is a setting on grid units

Zacharee1

@Fabby I think we need to get @Seth 's approval and put that up as some sort of sticky on the front page of AU

Seth

@Mateo ohhhhh yeeeeeah!

Fabby

11:44 PM

@Zacharee1 Nah, we need a link to that as a button in our answers! ;-)

Zacharee1

Fabby

@Seth Too bad I don't have my paper pics digitised yet, or I would post a picture of me in my vampire outfit and long hair 18th century-style!!! :P ;-)

Zacharee1

@Fabby Scan it with that AIO printer you should have

Fabby

Zacharee1
