| dsmythies | tsimonq2: Yes, I am here. Note: I am not normally here. | 01:55 |
|---|---|---|
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: hello :) | 01:55 |
| dsmythies | We appreciate your help. | 01:55 |
| tsimonq2 | I'm glad to lend a hand. :) | 01:56 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: I did my push of the serverguide, if you want to to pull to start from there. | 01:56 |
| tsimonq2 | I'm working on a merge proposal now to replace apt-get with apt. :) | 01:57 |
| tsimonq2 | okay, I'll check it out quick | 01:57 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: I am only aware of Ted Cox doing other edits, which might lead to conflict. | 01:57 |
| tsimonq2 | Alright | 01:58 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: it's a little sad we don't have more MPs :) | 01:58 |
| dsmythies | tismonq2: It is very sad indeed. Myself, for this cycle, I lost an enormous amount of time attempting to get a working 16.04 server. | 01:59 |
| tsimonq2 | wow | 02:00 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: By the way, tab autocompletion is a thing. :) | 02:00 |
| tsimonq2 | (in IRC) | 02:01 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: Oh, very cool. I am not very IRC savy. | 02:01 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: we all start somewhere :) | 02:02 |
| knome | dsmythies, or typing-savvy ;) | 02:02 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: would it be a good idea to link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/SystemDocumentation/UbuntuServerGuide or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/SystemDocumentation on https://launchpad.net/serverguide ? | 02:02 |
| tsimonq2 | because I think it is a good idea | 02:03 |
| dsmythies | knome: I am an engineer, and can not spell. I stump spell checkers on a daily basis. | 02:04 |
| knome | dsmythies, no worries, i'm just kidding. :) | 02:04 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: Yes, that is proably a good idea. | 02:04 |
| dsmythies | probably | 02:05 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: well, like, "To contribute to the Server guide, visit LINK" | 02:05 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: https://code.launchpad.net/~tsimonq2/serverguide/apt-get-to-apt/+merge/289552 | 02:06 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: I'll look right away. I emailed Ted, that there might be changes to the file he is working on. There were many changes by me yesterday also. | 02:09 |
| tsimonq2 | alright :) | 02:10 |
| knome | time to go to bed | 02:12 |
| knome | night! :) | 02:12 |
| tsimonq2 | have a good night knome :) | 02:13 |
| dsmythies | knome: good night. | 02:13 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: I do not see a "-y" option in the man pages for apt. However I do for apt-get. Reference line 938 of your MP. | 02:15 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: this enough proof? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15421445/ :) | 02:17 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: itm ight not be in the man page | 02:17 |
| tsimonq2 | *it might | 02:17 |
| tsimonq2 | I'll double check and submit a pull request for their man pages if it's a problem :) | 02:18 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: O.K. looks good. I'll merge into mine, do a check build (takes considerable time), then push. | 02:19 |
| dsmythies | Oh, it is at rev 269, I expected 260. | 02:19 |
| dsmythies | I mean 270 | 02:20 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: do you have a beefy computer or not? if not, merge into your branch, link me and get me instructions, I have a 6 core AMD processor with 16 GB of RAM. :) | 02:20 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: My server is beefy enough, and older i7 (4 core, 8 CPU) and 16GB. Build is largely single threaded and I build all 60 plus languages. | 02:22 |
| tsimonq2 | oh nice, okay :) | 02:22 |
| tsimonq2 | you 2up me on CPU cores :D | 02:23 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: It is also running some busy VM's at the moment. | 02:23 |
| tsimonq2 | ahh okay | 02:24 |
| tsimonq2 | well if you need my machine's help, I'm here :) | 02:24 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: I'll be out of time soon, as I have to make dinner for my wife and daugther. They are at workout at the moment, so we eat late on Friday night. | 02:25 |
| tsimonq2 | alright :) | 02:26 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: what's your time zone? | 02:26 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: Pacific (Vancouver Canada) 19:29 now. | 02:29 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: How about yourself? | 02:30 |
| tsimonq2 | Central time :) | 02:30 |
| tsimonq2 | dsmythies: whoops lol replied twice to the MP :) | 02:31 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: Still building... | 02:39 |
| tsimonq2 | alright :) | 02:40 |
| dsmythies | tsimonq2: Merged. Thanks. | 02:52 |
| tsimonq2 | cool, thanks dsmythies :) | 02:52 |
| * dsmythies off to make dinner. | 02:52 | |
| tsimonq2 | okay, thanks again dsmythies, bye! :) | 02:53 |
| kmph | Since I cannot edit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ParentalControls even after creating an account just for this purpose and logging in | 17:48 |
| kmph | Where can I request an edit to be made? | 17:48 |
| kmph | The issue is that you suggest Firefox addons for parental control | 17:49 |
| kmph | And I found at least one of them to be easily bypassable by anyone who has at least rudimentary technical knowledge or simply some wits | 17:51 |
| kmph | Also the very idea to enforce parental control via browser add-ons seems unsound | 17:51 |
| kmph | If you recommend this way to do parental control please put a notice that this is not a very secure way | 17:53 |
| dsmythies | kmph: Is that you that emailed the doc-team list just now? If yes, that was the correct thing to do. The site is locked down due to spam. I think the admins would like your exact suggested edits, I'll try to find a reference e-mail, but can not look at this moment. | 18:26 |
| kmph | dsmythies: Yes, I mailed the doc-team list. Not sure what you mean by “a reference e-mail”? | 18:33 |
| dsmythies | kmph: I mean this: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2016-February/019691.html | 18:41 |
| kmph | ah, thanks. Just a sec. | 18:42 |
