@quassy I don't think you should make your answer only about removing old kernels, since the question was more generic, and also because there already is a question for that, with good answers (sorry, on mobile, but you can find the link in my profile since I wrote one of the answers to it)
Aug 24, 2015 19:56
The author of the bogus question should probably be blocked, there's no way such an action was made by mistake. May be an attempt to gain reputation by reposting existing questions, in order to be able to post clickable links.
Aug 24, 2015 19:55
Not sure I made myself clear enough. Only the first link was problematic, the other two questions had nothing to do with it except for the fact that they were copied.all three had a different author.
Aug 24, 2015 18:08
nevermind, found the "flag" link (I may have been searching for "report", or maybe there's a time-out since I had reported a spam answer just a few minutes before)
Aug 24, 2015 18:04
correction: almost verbatim, with slight changes
Aug 24, 2015 18:04
I'm thinking the user is a spammer, but I can't see a report option for neither the question nor the user. Please take the appropriate actions.
Aug 24, 2015 18:03
@LewisGoddard, @embik, @RolandiXor: this question appears to use the title of this one and the body of this other one, both verbatim.

But looking again at the questions, the instructions for Freya already say that gtk-widgets.css is the file to edit, but that's for gtk3 apps. Can you take another look and confirm what's missing / wrong?
Aug 21, 2015 01:18
Hahah I suppose so. Still, the answers can be edited for a reason :) it's best if they're correct now, and either be updated or have a deprecation note added when things change.
Aug 20, 2015 16:35
Hm, reading that again, only step 3 is incorrect for Freya, since one needs to edit gtk.css rather than gtkrc, right? If so, what needs to be changed in gtk.css?
Aug 20, 2015 16:33
As for the correctness of the instructions for Freya, thanks for the clarification. I understand if you prefer not encouraging people to tweak the system like that, but the answer is misleading as it stands. What do you suggest?
Aug 20, 2015 16:32
@DanielForé hahaha fair enough. Don't forget to delete your comment on @mazienho's answer, though, since it doesn't apply anymore
Aug 17, 2015 17:38
and while we're at it, @mazienho, perhaps you could remove this comment as well, since the answer now includes both Luna and Freya instructions.
Aug 17, 2015 17:36
Also, you might want to delete your answer (although I'm afraid that it will be just hidden from public view, but remain visible to you and moderators), since it's been integrated into @mazienho's
Aug 17, 2015 17:32
Btw is the answer as I edited it correct? Especially for Freya, since I only tested in Luna
Aug 17, 2015 17:32
I'll delete mine then
Aug 17, 2015 17:32
@DanielForé yep, my point exactly.
Aug 6, 2015 14:28
@PNG that was the fastest acceptance of an edit suggestion I've had in any SE network site :)
Jul 9, 2015 14:31
@Tim I am not sure I understand your question. Happy to chat about that at a time we both are online
Jul 9, 2015 14:28
@DanielForé let me know when I can find you around so we can sort out the scrollbar question.
Jul 9, 2015 11:26
You mean disagreed with the post, or disagreed with the removal? And are you talking about comments too, or just answers? I just woke up so sorry if I'm a little slow :P
Jul 8, 2015 21:58
I would suggest you to restore the post, even to make it clear to others that it's ok that nominations aren't unanimously accepted -- in fact, that's pretty much guaranteed when there are more candidates than available positions.
Jul 8, 2015 21:57
In fact, that removal demonstrates precisely one of the traits that led me to comment there: you unilaterally decided to remove a post based on an assessment that it wasn't useful to the community, when in fact I (and I believe others would agree) think the opposite.

Jul 8, 2015 21:55
@Tim I totally understand your reasoning, but that's no reason to remove the post. Community support is decided in the votes, and seeing what the community doesn't support is just as useful as seeing what it does support. I understand that for you it's a personal matter, kind of having a public demonstration of a negative assessment of your fitness for moderation, but I think the discussion there was honest, civil and generic enough not to read as a personal attack.
Jul 8, 2015 20:54
I think the discussion in the comments was pretty relevant for us to define what we want or not from moderators, and IMO it would be a net positive for them to remain public.
Jul 8, 2015 20:52
@Tim, did you delete your nomination in the moderator discussion on meta?
Jul 3, 2015 16:57
Agreed @elmato
Jun 30, 2015 21:13
@Tim, I've deleted the other comments, the only one remaining is this one: elementaryos.stackexchange.com/questions/35/…
Jun 30, 2015 20:45
do you think we should delete the comments in the answers prior to this discussion, to remove pollution?
Jun 30, 2015 20:44
I think it's fine now :D
 
Jul 3, 2015 18:37
gotta go now, ttyl
Jul 3, 2015 18:37
ok. Maybe I'll try installing it one of these days and I might have some extra details to add to the answer :)
Jul 3, 2015 18:27
the problem with the program
Jul 3, 2015 18:11
I'm still confused xD
Jul 3, 2015 18:11
okay, so... what was the problem?
Jul 3, 2015 17:34
or maybe it could be rephrased to mention the problems, and to say that the "active window" screenshot mode + "with borders" setting (hope I got that right) is the closest to what you are asking for, i.e. a screenshot without the background
Jul 3, 2015 17:33
if that is indeed the case, the answer shouldn't be accepted, since it's precisely what you asked for
Jul 3, 2015 17:32
that doesn't play well with elementaryos' window manager (gala)
Jul 3, 2015 17:32
2) the with/without borders is meant to include or exclude border decorations, i.e. title, scrollbars, borders, etc. and take a screenshot of the window contents only
Jul 3, 2015 17:31
(or combination of options)
Jul 3, 2015 17:31
1) the tool isn't working well in elementaryos, perhaps for that specific option
Jul 3, 2015 17:31
here's my guess
Jul 3, 2015 17:31
I have no idea what's going on
Jul 3, 2015 17:29
That doesn't make sense :/ the window seems cropped (e.g. the title doesn't show up), and part of the background appears. Am I missing something?
Jul 3, 2015 17:27
no problem :)
Jul 3, 2015 17:27
Was the first image also taken with the active window shortcut?
Jul 3, 2015 17:26
@Tim let's chat here, it's better
Jul 3, 2015 17:26
I don't understand why the background appears in the first image and not in the second, unless you chose different areas to capture. Are you taking both screenshots using the same shortcut?
Jul 3, 2015 17:26
Does it actually have a "with/without borders" setting, or is that a window screenshot vs. custom area screenshot? From the images it seems you're doing the latter.
Jul 3, 2015 17:26
@Tim thanks for editing the question and greatly improving it. I organized it some more, but the final part, with the images, is a little confusing to me, since both images show the shadow, but you wrote "it can (...) exclude the window borders, which means you won't get the shadow"
