[01:55] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: Yes, I am here. Note: I am not normally here.
[01:55] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: hello :)
[01:55] <dsmythies> We appreciate your help.
[01:56] <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.
[01:57] <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.
[01:58] <tsimonq2> Alright
[01:58] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: it's a little sad we don't have more MPs :)
[01:59] <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.
[02:00] <tsimonq2> wow
[02:00] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: By the way, tab autocompletion is a thing. :)
[02:01] <tsimonq2> (in IRC)
[02:01] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: Oh, very cool. I am not very IRC savy.
[02:02] <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 ?
[02:03] <tsimonq2> because I think it is a good idea
[02:04] <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.
[02:05] <dsmythies> probably
[02:05] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: well, like, "To contribute to the Server guide, visit LINK"
[02:06] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: https://code.launchpad.net/~tsimonq2/serverguide/apt-get-to-apt/+merge/289552
[02:09] <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.
[02:10] <tsimonq2> alright :)
[02:12] <knome> time to go to bed
[02:12] <knome> night! :)
[02:13] <tsimonq2> have a good night knome :)
[02:13] <dsmythies> knome: good night.
[02:15] <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.
[02:17] <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
[02:18] <tsimonq2> I'll double check and submit a pull request for their man pages if it's a problem :)
[02:19] <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.
[02:20] <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. :)
[02:22] <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 :)
[02:23] <tsimonq2> you 2up me on CPU cores :D
[02:23] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: It is also running some busy VM's at the moment.
[02:24] <tsimonq2> ahh okay
[02:24] <tsimonq2> well if you need my machine's help, I'm here :)
[02:25] <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.
[02:26] <tsimonq2> alright :)
[02:26] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: what's your time zone?
[02:29] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: Pacific (Vancouver Canada) 19:29 now.
[02:30] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: How about yourself?
[02:30] <tsimonq2> Central time :)
[02:31] <tsimonq2> dsmythies: whoops lol replied twice to the MP :)
[02:39] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: Still building...
[02:40] <tsimonq2> alright :)
[02:52] <dsmythies> tsimonq2: Merged. Thanks.
[02:52] <tsimonq2> cool, thanks dsmythies :)
[02:52]  * dsmythies off to make dinner.
[02:53] <tsimonq2> okay, thanks again dsmythies, bye! :)
[17:48] <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?
[17:49] <kmph> The issue is that you suggest Firefox addons for parental control
[17:51] <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
[17:53] <kmph> If you recommend this way to do parental control please put a notice that this is not a very secure way
[18:26] <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.
[18:33] <kmph> dsmythies: Yes, I mailed the doc-team list. Not sure what you mean by “a reference e-mail”?
[18:41] <dsmythies> kmph: I mean this: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2016-February/019691.html
[18:42] <kmph> ah, thanks. Just a sec.
