[06:06] <_Anna_> How can I close a program skipping its auto-save? The command kill doesn't do that and unplugging the computer isn't practical :/
[06:14] <diogenes_> _Anna_, what program?
[06:16] <_Anna_> it's a game. I don't like a random boss drop which can be changed with a loading at the same moment before the drop
[06:16] <_Anna_> but the game always auto-save while exits. It's a rogue-like game
[06:20] <diogenes_> _Anna_, check out game settings
[06:21] <_Anna_> No such setting. As I said, it's a rogue-like game.
[06:23] <diogenes_> _Anna_, if it saves to a file then you coul make it read only
[06:24] <_Anna_> it saves online
[06:25] <diogenes_> oh then you got no control over it
[06:26] <_Anna_> I was looking for the proper command and someone in another channel told me which one is the right one
[20:25] <refeaime> Hello guys, i need help with bash script, where I want to use `xargs -r rm -vi !(*.$1)`, but bash receives an syntax error at `(`. If use backslash -- this glob becomes literal.
[20:25] <refeaime> as $1 any variable can be used.
[20:26] <refeaime> I got proper resolution on perl, but i need bash, because target machine does not have perl.
[20:47] <refeaime> anyone?
[20:47] <tsimonq2> !patience
[20:48] <refeaime> I already used google to understand how to exclude by regexp in rm
[20:49] <refeaime> Question is: how to correctly do this inside a script.
[21:13]  * rldw is confused
[21:20] <rldw> Can I ask questions here to troubleshoot my Lubuntu install?
[21:21] <tsimonq2> !ask
[21:21] <teward> rldw: yes, you can.
[21:21] <teward> but you need to actually ask a question with details about what's going on to get help.
[21:21] <teward> and it appears that tsimonq2 is only capable of using factoids and not talking normally so...
[21:21] <teward> :P
[21:22] <rldw> I'm getting what I think is referred to as spinlock
[21:22] <tsimonq2> teward: :P
[21:23] <rldw> Any advice on how to diagnose?
[21:23] <tsimonq2> Which version?
[21:23] <tsimonq2> What is it stuck on?
[21:23] <teward> :O HE SPEAKS!
[21:23] <teward> :P
[21:23] <tsimonq2> How long have you waited?
[21:23] <tsimonq2> teward: :P
[21:29] <rldw> Whenever I run a browser, this little ol' netbook eventually hangs. The HDD light stays on, but no matter how long I wait, it never gives back control
[23:22] <rldw> Hello?
