DatMale21hello, i was running ubuntu-mate and used firefox to access this link https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/precedence when my computer froze01:51
DatMale21i would highly suggest you to switch from firefox to icecat (gnu) since firefox have been busted "stealing" users information more then once, just look it up on duckduckgo.com, they did it in the iOS app, and they to it mildly in the normal used firefox with any choice of there info getting stolen unless the user sees the little "choose what you share" button in the bottom of the browser window the first times they run it, a more hardcore user01:55
DatMale21might know this and do change it as soon as he uses the firefox in preferences, but the normie users do not see it as clear as the hardcore, i beg01:55
DatMale21beg you to not ship ubuntu-mate with firefox in next install, they do also use google by standard where other browsers like tor-browser or icecat uses duckduckgo.com to respect the users privacy and freedom, i suspect firefox to sell out to google when it comes to making google the standard search engine after install01:56
DatMale21icecat-gnu is also respected by fsf i think.. please :D01:57
Kyokuwow, I just installed mate for first time.. it's awesome03:23

MarioMeyHi, everybody.17:45
MarioMeyI want to suggest something for mate-screenshot. I know where it is in github, but this is not a bug, but a suggestion.17:45
MarioMeyWhere should I post it?17:45
MarioMeyIssues and tag it with "Feature request"?17:47
Akulimaybe someone on #mate knows? it's not a very active channel though17:47
Akulisome projects seem to use github's issues for this, not sure about mate17:47
MarioMeyAkuli: anyway... do you know how to tag an issue with "feature request"?¿17:48
MarioMeyI don't find the way.17:48
Akulii have no idea17:48
Akulimaybe tags are usually added by the people who maintain the repository? i dont know17:48
MarioMeyMaybe.17:49
MarioMeyHa, ha!17:49
MarioMeyI enter in an issue to look if I find the way... and it is exactly about what I wanted to post!17:49
MarioMeymate-screenshot does not allow to copy screenshot to clipboard by commandline argument (https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-utils/issues/160)17:50
Akuligive it a thumbs up :)17:51
MarioMey:)17:53
DarkPsydeLordi usually pipe things to my xclip17:55
DarkPsydeLordnot sure if related17:55
DarkPsydeLordalso im a lil dizzy today so i didnt read most of it17:56
Akuli$ function screencopy () { mate-screenshot $@ | xclip }18:00
Akulilol18:00
DarkPsydeLord:D18:11
Kyokui installed mate 17.04 in vmware along with vmware tools and when i drag windows around they move very slowly - anyone seen this before / know a fix?18:11
cyberpatohi18:30
DarkPsydeLordok i reintalled 17.04 and im still getting this random system errors but i think they happen when i click on maximize a virtual desktop18:36
DarkPsydeLordand since mate-maximus is involved i assume it's related18:37

Kyrosthanks20:14
bardHi!20:54
bardHas anyone used Clamscan and Clamtk?  Why are the fonts so messed up?  Is there a better alternative?20:55
Akuliyes, common sense and ublock :)20:57
Akuliantiviruses are a windows thing, and a stupid idea anyway20:57
xmetalcommon sense is a good tool21:01
