😳 oh I was caught. That bot was misleading

ok

Well I don't know if quick review has any meaning

Where can I ask that quick review ?

it's there if anyone is wiling to do that: github.com/solsticedhiver/ssid-logger

So I can't post on the site, right ? it's too long

hi. I never really coded in C but I have learned how to. Lately, I had the need for speed ;-) and jumped back on the C train. I even used thread and the pcap library. It wasn't as hard I thought after all. My code runs fine. I am just looking for some code review. Not a thorough one. No need to dive in the deatils unless it's needed. I just would like somone take a quick glance of 5 to 15 minutes of my 1000 LLOC.

@Rinzwind ok. thanks 😉

@chili555: so you are the one qualified ? askubuntu.com/questions/1135212/…

so broadcom-sta-dkms is better than bcmwl-broadcom-source. it doe snot crash. But I still can't connect ???

and do-release-upgrade throwed a worrying error.

not mentionning the sec vul of wl driver

It's worse and worse with l aka broadcom wifi driver in ubuntu. on 18.10, it was loosing connection because of crash in driver. a patch was on launchpad but never merged. Now I can't even connect. the driver is crashing repeatdly.... trying another wifi usb card, it is not even listed by efkill list and doe snot work sight,

I could download some gigabytes and try but that woud be a waste of bandwidth

hi. I can't find a definitive answer about that. Can I do a do-release-upgrade with apt-offline ?

yes

apport-bug crashed. how do I do ? ... to report a crash about apport-bug ?

cd

hi. using adwaita-dark, I got a unreadable download bar in chromium. Can anyone confirm this before I open a bug report ? imgur.com/a/dFOA7Ew

you compile from source what is not officialy supported

archlinux is not that a source based distro. you downloaded binary package like apt does. it's not gentoo or sourcemage or wahtever

@JacobVlijm yes. I was expecting someone pointing me to a good reason to stay

hi. so I installed ubuntu a long time ago because I couldn't bare gnome shell or wanted to switch back to kde. I wanted unity. now that unity is gone and that gnome shell is a little better, there is nothing left to hold me back in ubuntu ? isn't it ? so do I go back to archlinux or not ?

😄

I am not upvoted that often in the first place ;-)

@Zanna yeah OK thanks

stackoverflow.com/help/user-was-removed

hi. Today I see that I got a "-5 User was removed" achievement. what's that ? what did I do ?

a 16.4K rep user whining for 10 points reputations, really ?

askubuntu.com/questions/1091507/… So I got an accept apparently and someone whines about doing more effort and whatever but never provides an answer, then copy mine. and bam. no accept. Cool.

hi. I woul dlike to demote a ser form admin to regular user but still let her do the updates as usual. With the GUI prompt, asking her to do the upgrades, and so on. Is this doable with a set of sudo rules ? What command program should I allow ? Shoud I ask on askubuntu.com ? Is it already answered there ?

yes the fix was bacbported

ok. it's a bug github.com/curl/curl/issues/2736 it's fixed in curl 0.76.1 which fixes a CVE by the way. so why does ubuntu does not have the 0.76.1 version. did they backported the fix for the CVE vulneraiblity ?

in gnome-terminal ? in ucrl ?

hi again. curl -I <someurl> is filled with double underscore here ? do you have that too ? is it a bug ? in ubuntu ?

hi. Did you noticed ? When I upgraded from 18.04 the screen lock was disabled automatically by the installer. Is it related to the bug I encoutered when upgrading from 17.10 to 18.04 where I couldn't log in in back again once the stratup process had started and came back, unable to login in again ?

I mean chromium

Do ubuntu changed the default for the most hated "Omnibox UI Hide Steady-State URL Scheme and Trivial Subdomains" feature in chrome/ium 69 ? because I see the www subdomain and the scheme. the option is set on default which seems to be neither enabled or enabled ?

@Fabby yes the short test work. this time. the long test is in progress thanks to my trick I guess

ok. So I am doing while true; do sleep 5m; smartctl -i /dev/sdc; done in the hope to keep it alive during the test

hi. I am trying to make smart self long test. but I don't know why it is aborted at 20% (reason being aborted by host ???). I don't understand the drive tayed up all night after I done a shred on the disk (and to get bad block reallocated). so why ubuntu/kenrel power it down now in the middle of a self long test ? how can I prevent that ?

@ConorMancone thanks

not sure

I am sure it's dead simple. I don't want to spam their mailing list for that

I have setup an AP with NAT on a rpi. and all the traffic I want to analyze is ingored by fwflowpack. I am seeing this in the log. I have found onyl one page with google about that. and it's messy

support. I can't get it to work like I want.

hi. I have a question about silk (the netflow tool). Is it on topic on security.stackexchange.com ?

hi. I have a question and don't what to post yet on the iste for that. I have a list of "signals" owith checkboxes that user can select to draw on a chart. I want a way to enable the user to choose if that signal will be drawn on the right axis or left on the left axis as default. I don't want to add another checkbox for that. What could be a better ui for that ?
