[11:26] <trijntje> hi all, I noticed that ubottu doesnt have a factoid for !dd like it has for !rm, what is the best way to add a factoid?
[11:34] <IdleOne> trijntje: you can tell ubottu in PM. !dd is <reply> What you want the output of !dd to be.
[11:35] <IdleOne> that will get sent to the ops team who will review the factoid and apply it or not
[11:36] <IdleOne> trijntje: that warning could apply to almost all commands really :)
[11:37] <IdleOne> trijntje: maybe add a link to a wiki page for instructions at the end
[11:37] <trijntje> IdleOne: well, sure, but rm has a similar warning. And like rm, there aren't a lot of uses of dd that aren't potentially dangerous
[11:38] <trijntje> I mean you can cat stuf to /dev/sda as root, but you'll mostly use it to view files
[11:41] <IdleOne> trijntje: if you can also add a link to a good wiki page with examples/instructions on using dd I will gladly add the factoid :)
[11:41] <trijntje> my google-fu is weak today, I cant really find any usefull pages about dd.
[11:42] <trijntje> debian has http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/ddcommand.htm, but thats rather light on warnings ;)
[11:42] <IdleOne> yeah, I can't seem to find anything either
[11:43] <IdleOne> I vaguely remember seeing something on wiki.ubuntu.com once, maybe it was on help.ubuntu.com
[11:44] <cprofitt> morning all
[11:45] <IdleOne> morning cprofitt
[11:47] <trijntje> IdleOne: I cant find a wiki/docs page for dd, sorry. Its not that critical to add a factoid for dd, I don't think I've ever seen a user paste a dangerous dd command in the chat
[11:47] <IdleOne> if it does ever happen there is !danger
[11:55] <trijntje> I didn't know that, thats also nice
