[19:58] <tomreyn> Eickmeyer[m]: nice website! if i may suggest potential improvements: fix mixed content on https, force http -> https, use RSA key > 2048 bit, disable TLSv1.0 and 1.1, use DNS CAA ( https://blog.qualys.com/ssllabs/2017/03/13/caa-mandated-by-cabrowser-forum ), make use of some http(s) hardening approaches ( https://ubuntustudio.org/ ), possibly hide php and web server version.
[20:00] <Eickmeyer[m]> tomreyn: All of that is handled by #canonical-sysadmin, we have no direct access to files.
[20:00] <Eickmeyer[m]> tomreyn: That said, they're already working on updating things anyhow.
[20:01] <tomreyn> nice. so you manage non of php configuration, webserver configuration, files hosted, DNS?
[20:01] <tomreyn> *none
[20:01] <Eickmeyer[m]> tomreyn: That's correct, we just handle content via Wordpress.
[20:01] <tomreyn> i see. :)
[20:02] <tomreyn> https://wordpress.org/plugins/security-headers/ if you can request extensions
[20:03] <Eickmeyer[m]> tomreyn: I'd rather this conversation be in #ubuntustudio-devel if you would please. :)
[20:18] <zmagii> i can't seem to delete my vim installation
[20:18] <zmagii> that is, the default vim installation
[20:22] <Eickmeyer[m]> zmagii: Could you take that discussion to #ubuntu ? You're only going to find multimedia-related support here.
[20:22] <Eickmeyer[m]> #ubuntu is much more active with that issue.
[20:22] <Eickmeyer[m]> or issues like it.
[20:23] <zmagii> cool
[21:11] <Alex74> well yeah wtf am i doing?
[21:12] <Alex74> how did i appear here?!
[21:13] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: so i've sorted out my issue over at #ubuntu, but the conclusion is that I had a strange binary at /usr/local/bin/vim
[21:13] <zmagii> Would that have anything to do with ubuntu studio defaults?
[21:15] <Alex74> changes anything?
[21:15] <Eickmeyer[m]> zmagii: Not at all. Let me show you exactly what the defaults are: https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio-default-settings/tree/
[21:15] <Alex74>  at /usr/local/bin/vim
[21:15] <Eickmeyer[m]> As you can see, we install nothing there.
[21:16] <Alex74> yeah like a tresh bin no?
[21:16] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Do you have a support question?
[21:16] <Alex74> yea wtf is this forum?
[21:17] <Alex74> chat*
[21:17] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Read the topic line. This is the Ubuntu Studio Support chat.
[21:17] <Eickmeyer[m]> !support
[21:17] <Eickmeyer[m]> !offtopic
[21:17] <Alex74> yeah excuse me drunk as f
[21:18] <Eickmeyer[m]> !language | Alex74
[21:18] <Alex74> again exxcuse me,
[21:18] <Alex74> can i manualy import windows vst to run on ubuntu?
[21:19] <Alex74> is that on topic?
[21:19] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: thanks
[21:19] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Kindof. You need to install carla and the carla-wine bridges.
[21:19] <Alex74> hehh
[21:20] <Alex74> any easy way?\
[21:20] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: That is the easiest way by far.
[21:20] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Don't expect Ubuntu to run like Windows because, well, it's not Windows.
[21:21] <Alex74> yeah got it
[21:21] <Alex74> for a while now trying to work on lmms
[21:21] <Eickmeyer[m]> Ok, have fun.
[21:21] <Alex74> any other user friendly daws?
[21:21] <Alex74> no midi no nothing
[21:21] <Alex74> just a keyboard
[21:21] <Eickmeyer[m]> My weapon of choice is Ardour, which does everything.
[21:22] <Alex74> can you explain how i use my keyboard as a midi?
[21:22] <Eickmeyer[m]> Is it a midi keyboard?
[21:22] <Alex74> nope.
[21:23] <Alex74> 0_0
[21:23] <Eickmeyer[m]> Then it's not possible.
[21:23] <Alex74> yep got it
[21:23] <Alex74> no other modification?
[21:23] <Alex74> just plug and play?
[21:23] <Eickmeyer[m]> Unless it's a midi keyboard that uses a midi interface or midi via USB, no.
[21:24] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: what would be the best program to use if i want to start off with a basic synthesiser (e.g. maybe just a sine wave) and then tweak it into a usable synthesiser for project?
[21:24] <zmagii> *projects
[21:24] <Eickmeyer[m]> But MIDI keyboards, if USB, are generally plug-and-play. Otherwise, if they have MIDI, they'll have to go through a midi interface.
[21:24] <Eickmeyer[m]> zmagii: Best is subjective, but Carla is a good one since it provides a virtual keyboard and can use synthesizer plugins.
[21:25] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: The reason for me asking is that I used Logic Studio to record an album a few years ago and now I have the problem that I can't export any of the instruments
[21:25] <Alex74> ok then..
[21:25] <zmagii> So I basically want to "redo" them, as in, find things close to them
[21:25] <Eickmeyer[m]> zmagii: Unfortunately nothing we have is compatible with Logic Studio.
[21:25] <Alex74> i have an old sound card
[21:25] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: yup nothing *anyone* has is
[21:25] <Alex74> guitar-u
[21:25] <Eickmeyer[m]> zmagii: Ardour and LMMS can use MIDI.
[21:25] <Alex74> guitar-u 1630
[21:26] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: I'm not familiar with that one.
[21:26] <Alex74> how do i make it work on linux
[21:26] <Alex74> eickmeyer[m] its a cheap and old one
[21:26] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Just about everything is plug-and-play, no drivers required.
[21:26] <Alex74> that one requires even on win
[21:26] <Eickmeyer[m]> The Linux kernel is that comprehensive.
[21:27] <Eickmeyer[m]> Well, Windows' kernel isn't nearly as comprehensive as Linux. The only thing I can tell you, Alex74 , is try it. You have nothing to lose from trying. If it doesn't work, then that's your answer.
[21:29] <Alex74> as i remmember it didnt work on 16
[21:29] <Alex74> ill try but yeah
[21:29] <Alex74> now a comp eng
[21:29] <Alex74> not*
[21:30] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: could i use e.g. an oscillator track and try to tweak it from there?
[21:30] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: the basis of a synthesiser is an oscillator, right?
[21:30] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Older hardware loses support due to bitrot (nobody maintains the code for upkeep).
[21:31] <Eickmeyer[m]> zmagii: If you want. There's tons of synth plugins included by default, so experiment. Find what works for you.
[21:33] <zmagii> Eickmeyer[m]: alright, cool
[21:53] <Alex74> Eickmeyer[m]: is that a matrix chat?
[21:53] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Yes.
[21:53] <Alex74> thats nice
[21:54] <Alex74> any connection to matrix global?
[21:54] <Eickmeyer[m]> Alex74: Yes. This is a bridged channel.
[21:54] <Alex74> thats very cool
[21:55] <Alex74> iam also a maerle.. :P
[21:55] <Eickmeyer> I also have a direct IRC client.
[21:56] <Alex74> irs is rescue or relay?
[21:56] <Alex74> irc*
[21:56] <Eickmeyer> IRC is Internet Relay Chat.
[21:56] <Alex74> ok then
[21:56] <Alex74> quite new to all the term
[21:57] <Alex74> Eickmeyer how do i pm you?
[21:57] <Alex74> here or [m]?
[21:58] <Eickmeyer> Alex74: Whichever. I'll be quicker to respond to the [m], but what reason do you have to PM me?
[21:58] <Eickmeyer> BTW, we have #ubuntustudio-offtopic for social stuff.
[21:59] <Alex74> Eickmeyer: just to talk you seem to be a social creature
[21:59] <Alex74> i have question and stuff off topic
[21:59] <Eickmeyer> Alex74: Feel free to jump in #ubuntustudio-offtopic. We have quite a few social butterflies in there. :)
[22:01] <Alex74> exedently pressed X
