Arrickand using something like a server (if its being used as a server) for general purpose computing is asking for issues... just saying from a security standpoint00:11
codenomicsa server is just a computer00:11
codenomicsoh I see what you mean00:11
ArrickI beg to differ.... its different hardware.00:12
codenomicsnot really00:12

tanukiComparing server-class hardware to commodity hardware is like comparing a semi tractor to a Corolla.00:13
Arrickright tanuki00:13
codenomicsit is a computer with specific components in it... but still just a computer00:13
tanukiThey're both 'cars' in most definitions.00:13
codenomicsI am not saying that they are not different lol...00:13
codenomicsbut they are both computers00:14
tanukiActually, in most cases it's more like comparing a military-grade HMMWV to a Honda CR-V.00:14

codenomicsjust to give Arrick a stroke00:26
Arricklol00:26

cpt_yossarianGuest85064: it's a program that binds keys to other keys. you can install it with `sudo apt-get install xbindkeys`00:27
cpt_yossarianand running `xbindkeys-config` will open the keybinding tool00:27

Stiflercoderman1: 1.0 = 100% on a single core02:43
ryyscoderman1: it's neither, its the run queue length02:43
coderman1Stifler: so how can i go over the number of cores i have?02:43
Stiflercoderman1: as ryys said, it is actually queue length. But 4 cores = 4.0 is 100%02:44
ryysyou'll have two processes not actually running, at any one time02:44
Stiflercoderman1: most would like to see no more than about 75% so for 4 cores a value of 3.0 is 75%02:44
coderman1i regularly see over 8, usually around 13 or so on this box.02:45

=== Nolan_Chancellor is now known as NCHammer
coderman1http://snag.gy/ECGdM.jpg02:47

snuffti've got a situation where i've accidently deleted a bunch of system files on a 14.04 install. is there a way that I can get them back somehow or do I need to format and start again? i forgot that i had a few system folders mounted in a different spot, then I deleted that spot. I aborted when I started getting  notices saying that the files couldn't be removed, but it's definitely damaged the system02:48
ryysperhaps, cant you drive up the load quite high from being IO bound rather than cpu bound?02:49
ryysthe red in that graph looks to mean you're spending a lot of time in kernel space02:50

Ben64thomedy: what exactly do you mean by setting a file to "sudo"07:26
thomedyokay... i will be honest i know that if i set it to +s it makes the script act like it is owned by itself or if i 777 it affects read/write/execute07:26
thomedybut i just think i solved my issue in a more simple and elogant way07:26
thomedyi can run sudo -s and pull the database pass07:26

thomedythats it i need to call kill PID without needing a password07:30
thomedyim trying sudo -s kill PID right now07:31
thomedyit seems like sudo -s will work07:31
Ben64letting people kill without a password is a bad idea07:31
thomedyso way to go google07:31
thomedyi agree with that07:32
Ben64and you can run "sudo kill" no -s necessary07:32
thomedybut its entirely automated i dont know a way around that without needing a password manually... so now im open to suggestions07:32
thomedyand also i do agree with the password thing07:32
Ben64why do you need automated killing of processes07:32
thomedyon danger but im hoping setting that file to only be run by a group07:33
thomedywell its my script i created a script that starts a file and if the file is going and then another file is going over the top of it... due to the nature of its function thats bad07:33
thomedyso i am looking for the pid and if its currently running kill it and then start the file over07:33
Ben64script a script start file if the file and another file...07:34
Ben64not helpful at all, good luck07:34
thomedyit okay i dont know if that is the point right now07:34
thomedyi think i have solved it...07:34
Ben64you should look into a better way of doing that, sounds terrible07:34
thomedyim okay with thinking its bad... but i do need to automate it07:34
Ben64what is your actual goal07:35
thomedyand i cant have duplicate functionality at the same time07:35
thomedyso i have to kill the pid before i start the next pid07:35
Ben64what is your actual goal07:35
thomedyor process rather than pid07:35
rnatthomedy: you can add this script to sudoers07:35
thomedyokay... yeah i was just reading about that07:36
thomedyi just didn't know if i was overkilling it07:36
thomedyit makes sense though07:36
Ben64what is your actual goal?!07:36
bekksAnd whats your actual goal?07:36
thomedyi cant say what the script does but my goal is what i said07:37
thomedyso sudo -s is dangerous07:37
Ben64you can say what it does07:37
bekksIf you cant even say what your script is going to do, I cant even say how you can solve your issue. Good luck.07:37
thomedywell its kind of a secret but i understand07:37
Ben64likely everything you're doing is dangerous, but you aren't sharing any information that would help fix it.07:37
bekksscripts are never "secret".07:37
thomedythe only thing that will be on the file is my executable and i know you can read the hex07:38
thomedyand reverse it07:38
Ben64probably opening big security holes with all this secret script and automated process killing without passwords07:38
thomedyokay...07:38
thomedyso -s pulls the pass from the database07:38

rnatthomedy: What I am understanding here is that you want to do A, but you somehow briing B which has nothing to do with A, then you suggest a new C07:41

rnati love you ubottu07:44
Ben64austin_: graphics drivers, xrandr, monitor, gpu, video cable...?07:44
thomedywell i go back and forth on th eright next step i just cant have manual input of my password i need to kill a pid without that...07:45
agent_whitethomedy: I have no idea at all what that means.07:45
Ben64thomedy: again, you're still worrying about Y.07:45
thomedyi really dont know how to say it anymore straight than that07:46
agent_whitethomedy: What is your goal? What step? What input to where? What password and why? PID or what?07:46
EriC^^thomedy: you want to kill a process automatically?07:46
rnatthomedy: you can speak in your native language07:46
EriC^^i mean in an automated fashion07:46
* Stifler Slaps myself with thomedy's script (full of executable reversible hex!!!)07:46
thomedyi have an automated script if it is a duplicate thats bad07:46
bekksUse PID files.07:46
thomedyokay let me google that... i still have to google sl07:46
agent_whitethomedy: You want to ensure only one instance of your script is running?07:46
thomedyyes..07:47
agent_whiteThere we go :)07:47
Ben64then write the script properly07:47
EriC^^thomedy: you don't need to manually input your password to use sudo without a password, you can add a command to be used without a password using sudo visudo07:47
EriC^^btw07:47
Ben64stop worrying about killing it07:47
thomedyi thought i said that multiple times07:47

thomedyokay i have sl, visudo, and using a  mutex... what was that 4th one... oh yeah using PID files07:50
thomedyokay im on it07:50
EriC^^thomedy: visudo isn't the best option, and it won't be portable too..07:50
bekksAnd it will not help you against multiple instances.07:51
thomedywell i can appreciate it not being the best option but in my context i dont need portable07:51

agent_whiteYou're reading pages you have no business reading if you want your program to work.07:56
EriC^^thomedy: add that to your script so it checks if it's already running and then exits07:56
StiflerJust set your script up as a service, run as root. Then it can only be started once. If you do it right you'll get a PID file as a bonus..07:57

thomedylet me read about mutexes and then i will tell you my logic on that one EriC^^07:57

agent_whitethomedy: Listen to Ben64. This is not the channel for your question.07:57
EriC^^this is c++?07:57
thomedyYou can use a mutex object to protect a shared resource from simultaneous access by multiple threads or processes. Each thread must wait for ownership of the mutex before it can execute the code that accesses the shared resource.07:57

No errors no logs doesn't even show the system was ever powered on. I have no08:00

brycetd19mDefaults and single Os setup.. I have noted that ubuntu can not step the cpu. My cpu has a setting for razing and lowering the clock speed that can not be turned of due to factors out of my control. And because of that the cpu sits at 400mhz instead of stepping up to 3.2ghz it is an error that I do not believe can be fixed. As said grub is the point where it locks up completely the moment the grub bootloader loads the system lock08:18

bokobokooh well then many are using gnome :D09:27
Aamithi all09:28
Stiflerbokoboko: many different managers out there. Pick what fits your needs, I personally like console hehe.09:30
bokobokohehe yeah I have to try to see, thanks!09:31
bekksUnity and Gnome arent managers, but desktop environments ;)09:31
Aamitlol09:32
AamitI love Unity than others09:33
Aamit;)09:33
Stiflerwell, Im not one to split hairs.. could have chosen a better word but either or. I dont really like desktop environments, lots of screens sessions do it for me :)09:34
phionai just want to text anyone in the world for free and i found this http://askubuntu.com/questions/46848/available-instant-messaging-clients  which one should i get? which one do you use??09:39

serega527hello all. pls give advice. i use openvpn tunnel on 80 tcp port. but in some cafe i can't to connect to my server. it say tsl error. what should i do?09:56
celexii don't think you can do that with compiz mortezae09:56
celexii know you can with xfce compositor and compton can but not compiz09:57
MortezaEcelexi, can't i replace it with metacity ang again return to compiz? though i tested it months ago unsuccessfully, maybe the wrong way09:57
celexiyeah you can09:58
MortezaE*and again09:58
ryysserega527: probably putting you through some sort of web proxy, they might let other sorts of traffic out unharassed though09:58

serega527thanks. pls say how solve this problem. may there is some good link?10:02

ryysjishjish: sata supports hotswapping [if your HW does is another question],10:19
bekksRish: :D10:19
RickyB98so it's related to memory use.. uhm10:19
janslowI think your issue is pretty obvious isn't it RickyB98? You can't do anything because your server is out of RAM. Therefore, it can't fork any new processes10:19
jishjishryys:  ok, but so why is it showing as a portable drive i can aject asnd not a one ive installed, since its internsl?10:19
bekksjanslow: how do you know it is out of RAM?10:20
janslowRun free -m and pastebin the output10:20
ryysjishjish: you can probably 'eject' it, though eject doesn't mean eject like a cd. it just means safe to unplug and remove10:20
Rishanyone who uses scilab?10:20
RickyB98http://puu.sh/gKEg7/23fdc75417.png janslow10:20
RickyB98looks like memory usage is fine though :\10:20
janslowYou have 7MB of RAM Free RickyB9810:21
ryysjishjish: i add and remove sata drives on my desktop while its running :)10:21
jishjishyes but why is it even showin up with that option, it shouldn't give the option to ejecty and safely remove since its internal and has my os on it10:21
RickyB98-/+ buffers/cache:         18        10910:21

Rishcfhowlett: so u use? :P10:22

janslowUhh, I can see about 20 lines of 'out of memory' errors bekks ?10:23
ryysjishjish: drive won't short circuit or anything funny like that, if you look closely at the sata connectors you'll see the conducting elements have different lengths, to lead to a predictable order of pins disconnecting/connecting10:23
Rishcfhowlett: ya...nice..:P10:23
bekksjanslow: REally? In ths paste?: http://puu.sh/gKEg7/23fdc75417.png10:23

bekksRickyB98: Obviously it isnt.10:25
jishjishit says 010:25
cfhowlettRish, /gentle suggestions follow/  "Does anyone else ..." defines zero in terms of what YOUR specific issue is, so, for clarity; I'm doing A, I want B, I've tried D, I'm using E" seems to yield answers much quicker.10:26

poops2ArcherGodson: the patch was only released a few days ago12:28
poops2how long does it take ubuntu repo to be updated usually?12:29
poops2should I just install from source?12:29
ArcherGodsonsecurity updates goes faster12:30
MonkeyDustpoops2  try the !backports if you want a newer version12:30
poops2what's !backports?12:30
poops2I dont have a problem installing from source, I just want to understand the best practice here. If I install from source then apt-get upgrade next time will revert it12:32
poops2What do ubuntu admins usually do for security patches?12:32
MonkeyDust!backports | poops212:33

ubottuhacktus0: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo14:37

hacktus0I wish use root in other user there is possible14:39

BlackRazor77Hey guys, I've been having problems with my laptop freezing (black screen) every time I close the lid. This is happening right after I upgraded to 14.04. I've searched online for a fix, but couldn't find anything about it. Anyone know anything about it? I've got a 10,1 MacBook Pro.15:31

jrtapperstony_iconcat, BlackRazor77 have either of you tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197829016:01

jrtappersBlackRazor77, If an old fix works then maybe it is the same problem16:03
tony_iconcatjrtrappers, no I haven't tried that, but it doesn't sound like my issue. For some reason, my system freezes on that splash screen when I'm trying to shut down. The freezing on suspend may be another issue.16:03

_unreal_knoppix/dsm/fedora/etc....18:03

pavlosstanmcm, I'm confused ... there only one entry for /dev/sdc but you said you are booting from another drive ... the sdc contains just data, right? hence you want to mount it to /mnt/media18:23

stanmcmpavlos, Nope.  It's broken.  :(18:50
Kali_Yugashould be there .config/google-chrome/18:50
stanmcmpavlos, I do have another computer.  You're thinking SATA cable/Mobo issue?18:51
RMJsorry to ask twice but didn't get any responses and I have no idea where to start looking for this - having some problems with USB in 14.04 LTS- on occasion I insert things like flash drives and all USB ports stop working, as well as touchscreen (which I assume is USB controlled - it's a lenovo yoga 2 11). Where would I  need to start looking for e18:51
RMJrror logs for  this to find out what's going wrong?18:51
Reno_Indeed, I have PulseAudio 6.0 as confirmed by apt-get.18:51
pavlosstanmcm, using a live CD, you can istall gparted and try to rescue your 2TB disk ... just a thought18:51
Reno_My QT4 apps can't run because they can't find PulseAudio 4.0. Why?18:51
Kali_Yugado you have any unwanted addons installed? could be that too18:52
pavlosstanmcm, sata cable maybe, sata conector on m/b maybe ... but it was working for 2 years18:52
stanmcmpavlos, I'm starting to think I might have mistakenly formatted this HDD.  Egg all over my face if that's the case.18:53

zerowaitstatequey: The hosting providers do a lot of stuff for you and hide the complexity behind what you're doing. If you're installing apache on your own and making your own internet-facing webserver, there's a lot of things that one can do wrong and not realize it right away21:01

zerowaitstatequey: if you're trying to learn programming, there's generally two ways to do it (just like in networking). Either you start from the physical level (hardware), and work your way up to more abstract things like HTTP, or you do the opposite---starting from the most abstract like HTTP and working your way down to the physical21:07
Bl4ckD34Thok, you save my soul21:07
Bl4ckD34ThGood bless you all21:07
Guest40344correct rgb-one I did do that21:07
zerowaitstatequey: Java hides the hardware from you, but isn't very good and representing highly abstract things like metaprogramming.21:08
rgb-oneGuest40344: That didn't work?21:08
zerowaitstatequey: my advice is to start by learning C.  It isn't "cross-platform" or whatever, but it's still the lingua franca of just about everything. There isn't a device on the planet aside from some microcontrollers that doesn't have a C compiler for it21:09
Bl4ckD34Thhere is the tutorial21:09

AbbottIs that what I need to umount or will that cause problems21:10
clmclmBl4ckD34Th, sudo apt-get purge xfce421:10
zerowaitstatequey: if you really want to start from the most abstract thing possible, then I recommend learning a functional language like Lisp or Erlang, but I really think a simple imperative language like C is the best route when you're first learning to walk21:11
Bl4ckD34Thok, wait one moment please21:11
Amm0nAbbott, this is it i think, but a reboot should do it too21:11
zerowaitstatequey: and avoid @*#(@ object oriented languages like the plague.21:11
Bl4ckD34ThThe following packages will be REMOVED:21:12

clmclmwheresmypaaants, this seems fine... it's hard to say what's the problem here22:32
clmclmwheresmypaaants, let me check something22:33

nmatrix9What's the channel for off topic ubuntu stuff?22:33
bigglebogglesSo, dumb question. I'm tying out i3 and set my mod key to the Windows key instead of alt, and I think I disabled the Windows key on the machine.  Any suggestions?22:34

wheresmypaaantsUnfortunately I haven't fully absorbed Linux yet, so please feel free to translate that22:38
Bashing-omwheresmypaaants: Maybe  - kinda doubt it though, will not hurt to see who owns the parent directory .22:38
wheresmypaaantsoh22:38
wheresmypaaants.-.22:39
wheresmypaaantsRoot owns it22:39
Bashing-omwheresmypaaants: Well ! :) .22:39
=== owner is now known as Guest38607
wheresmypaaantsshould I chown?22:39
Bashing-omwheresmypaaants: Yeah, I would; "you" should own all directories in your /home .22:40
clmclmwheresmypaaants, yes chown /home/eric22:40
wheresmypaaantsI think that I screwed that up when I changed my home directory to an external drive -.-22:40
wheresmypaaantswould I do chown eric:eric /media/eric/Data/home/eric ?22:41
wheresmypaaantsThat's my home directory22:41
clmclmwheresmypaaants, you can check the owner first 'ls -l /media/.../home/eric22:42
PerfMohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh22:42
PerfMshieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet22:42
wheresmypaaantsyep all root22:42
clmclm:)22:42
clmclmwheresmypaaants, so chown /media/../home/eric with eric:eric22:43
wheresmypaaantssoo chown eric:eric /media/.../home/eric ?22:43
wheresmypaaantsoh22:43
wheresmypaaantssorry22:43
wheresmypaaantsdidnt see that22:43
wheresmypaaantsthanks22:43
wheresmypaaantshrm22:44
wheresmypaaantsstill owned by root22:44
Ben64wheresmypaaants: what is22:44
clmclmdid you sudo chown?22:44
wheresmypaaantsyes22:44
clmclmwheresmypaaants, is the external even ext* filesystem?22:45
Ben64wheresmypaaants: why is your home not at /home/user ...22:45
pi_user_84any wordpress admins here?22:45
wheresmypaaantsBen64: Bigger Drive, the OS Drive is smaller but SSD, Data drive is HDD but 1TB so I use that22:46
wheresmypaaantsThe external drive is NTFS because I came from windows and didnt want to lose all of my data - Is that the issue?22:46
Ben64wheresmypaaants: yeah22:46
wheresmypaaantsOnce I format it to ext4, will everything be in harmony again22:47
Ben64you shouldn't have home on external anyway22:47
hemzepikFrom22:47
wheresmypaaantsWell, would it be better to change each directory in my home directory to the external?22:47
wheresmypaaantsFrom NTFS22:47
wheresmypaaants^^ Disregard22:47
Ben64why do you need to have that much in home anyway22:47
Ben64just store big stuff in the external at /media/wherever22:48
bigglebogglesAnyone really familiar with i322:48
wheresmypaaantsNote, its not external, its internal but secondary22:48
Ben64ok, then you can have home on it, but you should do it through fstab22:48
wheresmypaaantsBen64: Because I like things to be where they're supposed to be22:48
wheresmypaaantsDocuments in Documents22:48
wheresmypaaantsPictures in Pictures22:48
Ben64well home should never be in /media so you're already doing it wrong22:48
wheresmypaaantsI did it through that22:48
clmclmwheresmypaaants, ntfs can't handle linux user rights, you need a ext* filesystem. All directories are owned by root because root mounted this filesystem and you can't change that22:50

wheresmypaaantsAlright, backing up and formatting22:51

Bashing-omwheresmypaaants: On e can shrink the NTFS partition, and make up a niw ext4 partition for ubuntu's direcoriers .. Back up files as a precaution.22:52
wheresmypaaants^^ On it22:53
wheresmypaaantsTBH I have no idea if my backup drive is even functional anymore... I hear clicks every so often.. *sigh* time for a new HDD22:54
Bashing-omwheresmypaaants: SMART test on the drive, then see about a new drive .22:54

andybrineHi Everyone23:15
timHello23:15
DeadlyLifeHello23:15
andybrineI currently running gnome shell on ubuntu 14.0423:16
andybrinedo you think it is worth upgrading?23:16
andybrineI upgraded to 14.10 after it first came out and found it really unstable23:16
andybrinedoes anyone know if it has gotten any better by any chance?23:17
DeadlyLifeTo what, 14.10? I wouldn't bother unless there's features you need for some reason23:17
andybrinewell, I want to use the latest gnome3 apps23:17
andybrinelike totem, photos and calendar23:18
Alissaandybrine: It's pretty stable for me.23:18
AlissaI've been running it for a few weeks with no problems.23:18
aenimahey so I tried to boot into my live usb but it freezes at the main screen so I can't really check if my sd card reader is working -.-23:18
AlissaThis laptop's been up 2 days and not a single problem has occurred.23:18
andybrinethanks Alissa, I may try upgrading again23:19
aenimait used to work no problem so I'm really confused >.M23:19
andybrineI was just really put off when I installed it back a few months back as I had problems here and there23:20
AlissaTypically I'd wait until about 2 months after software's released to even think about trying it. :)23:21
andybrineanother question then, is there a way to upgrade to shell 3.14 without using the development repos?23:21
andybrinethats a good thing to do Alissa. The prob with me is that I am always tempted to try it!!23:22
AlissaThen set up a VM :)23:22
andybrineyea, I should do that23:22
aenimawhat's the command to list every single piece of hardware on ubuntu?23:23
andybrineI generally have too much faith in ubuntu being awesome! Usually release upgrades are quite stable but from 14.04 to 14.10 it was not good23:23
k1l_aenima: lshw23:23
xpro256or you can install inxi23:24
Alissak1l_: I'm testing that now and all it does is hold.23:24
aenimaThanks. I'll remember someday :P23:24
Alissaoh wait there it goes.23:24
andybrineif 14.10 is working well for you with no problems then I will try again23:24
andybrinedoes anyone know if there is a simple way to upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10?23:25
aenimayes, have your /home on a separate partition and do a fresh install. You risk breaking things23:25
andybrineok, so that may take some time23:26
aenima20 minutes in my experiene23:26
andybrinewhat about upgrading from gnome shell 3.12 to 3.1423:26
andybrine?23:26
AlissaJust shove pie into your computer23:26
aenimanot too sure there :(23:26
AlissaPie == 3.14, right?23:26
andybrinePie?23:27
Alissaandybrine: was just a small joke about the numeric constant :P23:27
andybrineOh im not sure lol23:27
andybrinelol got it now23:27
andybrinesorry didnt catch on for a moment23:27
Alissa:)23:27
PerfMI'M CRYING SO HARD. Alissa + andybrine23:27
OerHeksi would wait for vivid 15.04 /gnome 3.14/ 3.18 kernel23:28
PerfMTHIS CONVERSATION IS SO ROMANTIC23:28
andybrineLol23:28
AlissaI suppose that was a bit out of line. :/23:28
AlissaI'll look into gnome 3.14, see how hard it'd be.23:28
andybrineIs there a way to upgrade from 3.12 to 3.14 without using deelopent repos?23:29
andybrineI dont want to use any deelopment repos and thats why I ask23:29
aenimaMy preferred partition system is (I have a 32gb micro ssd) and a 500gb hard drive. I assigned "/" to the ssd, with /boot at the beginning, and then /home on the 500gb harddrive. Less risk losing any person files23:29
Iordan__good bye guys and girls :)23:30
Iordan__heh :)23:30
Iordan__bye23:30
andybrinebye23:30
Alissahttp://www.webupd8.org/2014/10/how-to-install-gnome-314-in-ubuntu.html I suppose that can be of help if you don't use Unity.23:30
andybrinethanks Alissa23:32
aenimaI take it that those were helping me are either afk or logged off but... Can anyone help me get my 7 in 1 compact card reader to work again? It worked fine in 12.0.2 but then I upgraded to 12.0.4 and it no longer works.23:32
andybrineIs that staging repo for development apps?23:32
AlissaI don't think so '-'23:32
mustmodifyCan I reinstall ubuntu without getting rid of existing documents in ~ and /projects ? Just like --- "Hey, get rid of the OS and put it back please." I use ubuntu server 14.04 and it's all messed up now. :)23:33
aenimathat's not the spirit :(23:33
andybrineI use my computer everyday for work so I want it to be really stable23:33
andybrineok, thanks23:33
Alissamustmodify: Well, there's multiple solutions for you.23:33
mustmodifyAlissa: Oh good.23:33
Alissamustmodify: You can make a separate partition and reinstall over the old one, or move everything to either a cloud server or an external HDD23:33
mustmodifyTell me. :)23:33
mustmodifysure23:33
AlissaYou are aware of how partitions work, right?23:33
aenimaMust modify, is your /home on a separate partition?23:33
mustmodify"backup and restore"23:33
AlissaYeah, pretty much.23:34
aenimamustmodify, *23:34
mustmodifyaenima: no.23:35
mustmodifyAlissa: You were saying I had multiple options. :)23:36
mustmodifyI already have a share set up on /projects so presumably I could ... like ... tar-and-feather(haha) the files, copy them to another machine, and restore. But since it contains git repos... I can't think of a reason that would go badly but I just worry about it.23:37
nicolas mnhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm23:37
