=== guiverc_t is now known as guiverc [00:50] looking at #538 : i made the top 5 questions list (askubu; i haven't noticed that before [an answer]) :) [00:53] progress yaru: "details the install means and notes" - too difficult? means could be mis-understood by those not first language english (though this is me; the pot calling kettle black !) [00:54] guiverc: Feels good all over - I too get a charge when one of my posts (forum) makes it onto the list . [00:55] :) [00:58] planet:open the cosmic: "why it wasn't included in 18.04 are given" i think is change ; s/are given/is given/ (many->singular) ?? [01:01] look'n .. you may well be right :) lemme log back in . [01:02] my thoughts; not @ end yet... [01:03] Yep ! .. agreed .. should be singular . will change . [01:04] kde plasma 5.14: "Joey apprises though, the" - this is really petty, but I say ; (not comma) [01:06] guiverc: ack [01:08] Canonical Donates: "for the Nexus 10; Dalton Durst reports" I suspect a 'as Dalton Durst" would read better; ie. possibly add a "as" [01:09] plenty of muscle - you have to have written that; I sure don't use analogy! [01:11] looks really good in my opinion Bashing-om [01:12] guiverc: guilty . saves listing the specs . // As to the comma in kde plasma 5.14: I kinda want to have that pause because of the length of the sentence and to add emphasis . - I can live with taking the comma out, however . [01:12] do as you suggest - I barely passed english ! (maybe I should have said that earlier; though is mostly obvious!) [01:16] guiverc: If we add 'as' it changes the meaning of the sentence somewhat . We really want to do that ? [01:16] it was a suggestion; if you don't like it ignore my suggestion please! [01:17] (if I read the same thing tomorrow; I'll likely come up with different suggestions - i'm better @ reading cobol & prehistoric computer code!) [01:17] guiverc: Never ignore .. I am the novice here ... rmember, I am the gofer in this enterprise . [01:18] this relates to ENGLISH - in my opinion you're the master there friend :) [01:19] guiverc: Speaking of gofer, are you able to do the media postings Monday? As that is above my pay-grade . [01:19] yep - you tell me when, and I'll post... [01:20] Oh say .. long about 8ish GMT to do the media releases ? [01:21] PM ! [01:24] i'm looking at clock, may be closer to ~10:00 [UST/UTC/GMT] that I can do it; happy?); but will do when I can in 5+ hours okay? === guiverc_d is now known as guiverc [01:27] guiverc_d: 1000 UTC puts me at 5 AM ... I have not had my coffee at that time ! I shoot for releasing while still a Monday on Greenwitch time . [01:33] okay - i probably need my coffee; i have it ~2:30 in london; which is why I said 5+ hours (to get close to 8am) from now (making allowances for me in yard & busy on housework i do each monday); doing it later (say 7-9 hours) is actually easier for me.. [01:34] guiverc: ' TZ='UTC' date ' We can do it - later - we got wiggle room and still slide under the wire of Greenworch Tuesday . [01:36] yep; i'm used to it being published 'tuesday' my local (+10) time; but I've always followed directions so am not used to saying when... [01:38] guiverc: 20 hours from now will do me good .. give time for Lyz or Simon to give thier opinion on the 538 issue . [01:41] tomorrow then; i will potentially need prompting (b/c of brain injury; I can wake with little memory of past; esp. earlier in day & that will be early my local time..) [01:54] guiverc: Understood. I will ping ya here . It only takes me about a half hour to do the mailings and post to the forum . === guiverc_t is now known as guiverc === guiverc_t is now known as guiverc [03:30] -SwissBot:#ubuntu-news- ::OMG!Ubuntu:: How to Schedule Files Backups to Google Drive on Ubuntu @ https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/?p=133468 (by Joey Sneddon) === guiverc_w is now known as guiverc === guiverc_w is now known as guiverc [10:36] -SwissBot:#ubuntu-news- ::Softpedia:: Linux Kernel 4.18 Slated for Release on August 5 as Linus Torvalds Outs Last RC @ https://news.softpedia.com/news/linux-kernel-4-18-slated-for-release-on-august-5-as-linus-torvalds-outs-last-rc-522156.shtml (by Marius Nestor) === guiverc_d is now known as guiverc [13:09] -SwissBot:#ubuntu-news- ::Softpedia:: IPFire Hardened Linux Firewall Distribution Gets Major Update, Here's What's New @ https://news.softpedia.com/news/ipfire-hardened-linux-firewall-distribution-gets-major-update-here-s-what-s-new-522159.shtml (by Marius Nestor) [14:10] -SwissBot:#ubuntu-news- ::OMG!Ubuntu:: The GPD Pocket 2 Crowdfunding Campaign is Now Live @ https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/?p=133490 (by Joey Sneddon) [17:06] -SwissBot:#ubuntu-news- ::OMG!Ubuntu:: UK Government Publishes List of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Security Tips @ https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/?p=133842 (by Joey Sneddon) [17:50] Any recommedations for alterations for UWN538 ?

[22:23] guiverc_w, are you taking care of the social media publishing? [22:23] fb, g+, anywhere else you want/need done? [22:24] was there twitter? [22:25] I am not really thinking properly, I had two surgeries in 10 days and the second one still not out of the woods yet [22:25] guiverc_w, yes twitter also but I can do it real quick if you need me too [22:25] tsimonq2: I placed your blog in the Planet .. and the softpedia summary in the Blogosphere . right ? [22:25] don't worry Wild_Man - someone else can 'yell' at me if they discover something else I've forgotten... [22:25] Bashing-om: Yup. [22:25] you get well !! [22:26] tsimonq2: Yours has not been proof read . Are we ready to release ? [22:26] okay, Bashing-om do you need anything else before while I am where [22:27] Wild_Man: Apprciate the effort .. but guiverc_w is here to take up my slack . === guiverc_w is now known as guiverc [22:27] my appendix basted after my first surgery and I gt sepsis [22:28] Bashing-om: Go for it. [22:28] Wild_Man: Ouch ! .. 1st that i have heard . real real bad ! [22:28] okay, I did receive your pm that is why I got on [22:28] Wild_Man: :( get better soon [22:28] I don't even have an appendix. [22:28] All - starting the release at this time . mailings comming up . [22:30] tsimonq2, thanks, I will also miss the board meeting on Thursday, hopefully I will be much better in about two weeks but I may still have to have surgery again, it is a waiting game to see, talk to you later [22:30] OK [22:30] Thanks Wild_Man [22:36] Opps .. got to pull "WIP" ! [22:43] mailing sent .. doing the Forum post next . [22:47] fb g+ & twitter done [22:48] guiverc: No step for steppers ! .. doing the re-direct edits next . Forum is done . [23:14] OK, issue 538 is history .. 539 is set to go :) [23:18] guiverc: I have not seen yet the channel bots to advise that the Fridge has the new issue .. is there a problem ? [23:18] was I to do the fridge post; I don't see it ? [23:20] i'll post to fridge .. which goes to .... [23:20] guiverc: Got me .. as I have no account there .. is above my pay grade :) [23:21] i suspect we're all on the same pay grade :) [23:21] LOL [23:25] Bashing-om, who ran the python code that copied to wiki - they'll have the source i need for it? (hopefully; will be faster) [23:27] guiverc: Sorry, I do not know anything about the python code for the wiki . [23:28] who copied it from gdoc to wiki? [23:29] guiverc: I did the copy from Gdoc to the wiki - yes . [23:29] cut & paste I'm guessing.. [23:30] guiverc: Cut and paste to the wiki is the only way I know how to do it :( [23:31] no probs - how I did it too... just found krytarik's notes on correct way :) [23:31] (not touching the wiki - the correct way generates a version for fridge - it's what I want; copy & paste doesn't create that...) [23:34] guiverc: yup, I run the script to get the forum version. I do note there is a fridge.post file :) [23:34] can I please get a copy of it - it's what I'm trying to generate... (haven't got there yet) [23:35] sure ,.. gimme a tic to termbin it . [23:37] guiverc: see: http://termbin.com/2p63 . That look like what you need ? [23:37] just created it anyway, but thanks; will confirm what I created matches yours, then post... [23:38] diff same; so we both screwed up the same way, or we both did okay! [23:38] guiverc: That one ^ still has " [B]WORK IN PROGRESS[/B] " . that will require removing when posting . [23:38] i don't see it in file.. [23:39] guiverc: Will not be in a new generation .. I failed to remove the WIP before I ran my scripts . [23:41] not an issue; the script doesn't copy everything, just titles & links (& must skip wip) [23:43] links all okay.. [23:44] http://fridge.ubuntu.com/?p=8413 - if you wanna look & please scream @ me if anything is wrong.. [23:45] guiverc: I do not know what I can do - but I will look anyway :) [23:47] guiverc: Got me .. I have never looked at the Fridge postings before .. I do not know what to compare to . [23:48] http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2018/07/23/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-537/ is prior one; http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2018/07/30/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-538/ is current one.. i think all is good [23:49] guiverc: However ^ .. the links complete to an expected result :) [23:49] guiverc: Yepper ! .. looks good to me :P [23:50] my 8413 post may not help you (my bad) ; i think it assumes you have wpadmin authorities [23:51] and given some time, the posts should be picked up by SwissBot, Marvin & any other bots here & there :) [23:52] good pick up fridge was forgotten - thank you... didn't even occur to me... [23:54] guiverc: I just so accustomed to seeing the bots report of the fridge posting .. so I wondered :) [23:57] :) at times i remember things, other times I struggle with simple things... i can assist, alas i'm not equipped to lead anything [23:59] guiverc: I do what I can - but I re-affirm - I am the gofer :P .. leastways til we get new blood .
