lubot<Wafficus> Hey wxl, if I could ask nicely, can I please get training on helping with the system admin side of things. I'd love to add more stuff on my resume18:15
lubot<Wafficus> Like server side tasks18:15
lubot<teward001> (1) learn linux18:15
lubot<teward001> *shot*18:15

wxlthat's the right start, though18:15
lubot<Wafficus> Nah it's all good18:15
wxllearn linux REALLY good18:15
tewardwxl and I both speak from experience, knowing linux very well helps as a good starter18:16
tewardyou might want to look into the training material for Linux+ or LPIC1 as well18:16
tewardgives you a gist of general sysadmin18:16
wxlthere's SO MUCH you can do with just a few basic gnu utils18:16
teward90% of *nix sysadmin is CLI after all18:16
tewardyep18:16
wxlyep18:16

tewardJINX you owe me a beer18:16

lubot<HMollerCl> jajaja21:03
lubot<HMollerCl> If it heps someone. I just found out how to enable the battery manager (for not charging over x%) for BIOS (or UEFI) who support it but can't be changed in BIOS. At least for lenovo it works.21:03

wxllynorian: do we have something in the manual about checking hashes and what not?21:10
lynorianwxl yes we have for a while21:10
wxllynorian where's that at again??21:10
lynorianugh we just link to the community wiki21:11
lynorianhttps://manual.lubuntu.me/1/1.1/retrieving_the_image.html in the chapter for installation of course21:11
lubot<teward001> lynorian: sounds like we need new data then rather than pulling the wiki :P21:13
lubot<teward001> write it up up up!  *shot*21:13
lynorianyep21:15
wxllynorian: that's probably ok, as torrent, zsync should do the hash check, but we should also include the check disc for defects. it might be good to explain what the aim to resolve (download/copy errors, respectively) and that a single bit of information can make for all sorts of weird problems21:15
lynorianyep21:15
lynorianhaving it local also means you could do something like wget -r the manual and have it locally if you want it offline21:17
wxltrue21:18

lynorianwxl I am thinking of putting it in a warning like on file:///home/lynmp/testy/manual.lubuntu.me/1/1.3/installation.html21:32
lynorianoops21:32
lynorianI did wget it locally and it works lol21:32
wxlXD21:32
lynorianchapters 1.1 and 1.2 are some of the oldest parts of the manual actually21:36
lynorianyeah looks like the external links might have been rewritten and with md5 being seen as too weak by some security professionals might have made the page linked to more confusing21:48
wxlwe could always recommend sha256 by default :)21:49
lynorianyeah lubuntu.me recommends md5 still some 21:50
lynorianthis sounds like since it affects multiple areas should have a phab page21:50
wxlwe could certainly do that21:51
lynorianthere will be many users who at their first time have no clue what a hash is and having to explain md5 vs sha256 is way more levels of complexity 22:04

wxlyep22:05
wxlcould be simple enough to refer to it as like a "cryptographic signature" or something a little more grokkable22:05
tsimonq2wxl: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1092067/is-there-a-workaround-for-the-removal-of-copy-path-in-pcmanfm-qt?atw=122:14
tsimonq2wxl: Time to go say hai to tsujan again XD22:14
wxlno thanks22:17
wxl@tsimonq2: op says they might put it in some day22:17
tsimonq2Oh?22:18
wxlyeah22:19
wxli mean you have to read past the first few words and all but......22:19
wxlthta said, i think it's probably untrue22:19
wxland moreso they seem adamantly against it22:19
tsimonq2Got a link to the upstream issue?22:20
tsimonq2I'll send a PR and if they don't accept it I'll freaking distro patch it :)22:20
wxlhttps://github.com/lxqt/pcmanfm-qt/issues/48522:21
ubot93Issue 485 in lxqt/pcmanfm-qt "Copy Paths" [Closed]22:21
wxlthat's probably the most useful one22:21
wxlthere is a solution to the problem22:21
wxljust not via a context menu22:21
wxlthe usual "don't want to clutter the ui" argument https://github.com/lxqt/pcmanfm-qt/issues/73022:21
ubot93Issue 730 in lxqt/pcmanfm-qt "'Copy as Path' as context menu option like old PCManFM." [Closed]22:21
wxladmittedly if the funtionality is there, why bother with it?22:21
