hey everyone, is there a post on the limit of GIF? I figured out it must be something like 2 Mb or less, cant confirm it anywhere..

@MeNoTalk same as imgur, so 2mb

@Braiam thanks, I actually never knew that imgur has a limit of 2mb, I guess I never tried to upload a larger image..

Hi

I've made 5 stink apps that've made me 4 bucks, including the first app that lets you draw ASCII art

I wonder why they stink :P

So... I request ideas at the local tavern

I dont care if people steal them

jadarnel27

You left the milk out and it spoiled.

That's where the stink always comes from.

The Wobbuffet

I was being metaphorical/idiomatical/is that a word?

I think it's that I don't understand the iOS UI much

Mods can also come into your house at night and leave your milk out. Some mod abilities aren't talked about much.

^ That, @TheWobuffett.

The Wobbuffet

Hmm

Well, when someone gets my app what makes then delete it?

hichris123

... your spoiled milk?

The Wobbuffet

From ads

The first one is from the past 7 days

2nd from the past year

Hmm... can iPhones intercept smells and convert them into data types?

"Is your milk spoiled" app :P

Anyway, I wish to be a millionare. Share your ideas.

I'll cut in 0% if you want

I wish an app like Instagram would suddenly be taken off the app store

Anybody think html5 should be synonymed to html?

Stijn

6:30 AM

@bjb568 Any reason why you think it should?

bjb568

@Stijn Because both tags mean the same thing?

Stijn

@bjb568 We have c# and c#-4.0, should we make those synonyms too? html5 is for questions specific to HTML 5, from new tags like <header> to stuff like <canvas>.

bjb568

@Stijn C is a strictly defined language. HTML is not. HTML doesn't have versions, it only has fancy icons. Browser support is all over the place.

Stijn

@bjb568 The tag excerpt even explains this:

> HTML5 (Hyper Text Markup Language, version 5) is an umbrella term for recent web technologies. It is also the latest iteration of HTML Recommendation planned for 2014, introducing new elements and APIs.

bjb568

Which is a useless metatag.

I can't read the posts but I can guess what they're about. CWs are weird, such questions are normally off-topic unless enough people put work into it. Imho SE should either provide a proper wiki system or get rid of the current system.

Starting a canonical question is a coinflip really.

Bart

Myeah, all Wikis we have are somewhat ... meh. But then to find an alternative that actually works ... not trivial.

Yeah, that basically is it. I try to stay away from localized crap, mostly using en-us versions.

How to win undeserved reputation when you are at rep 1. a) Post a terrible question, which will attract downvotes and close votes. Don't worry, you can't go lower than 1. b) Once closed, add just enough code to satisfy those who don't actually know anything about the technology at stake. c) Sit and enjoy the reopen votes and the pity upvotes on a question that has obviously been unjustly downvoted.

@hichris123 sure, put the laser marker and hammer on its way! :)

@hichris123 you clone Stack Overflow?

@rene wizard here. What spell you need?

rene

Permission for a linux user over an smbclient to a cifs share...

hichris123

@ShadowWizard Data dump.

Shadow Wizard

@rene oh, that's level 12 spell. I have only up to level 9, sorry!

@hichris123 what will you do with those goodies?

rene

@ShadowWizard I guess I'm doomed in that case...

hichris123

@ShadowWizard Not sure yet. Hopefully look for hidden spam & NAA's. Also maybe some analytics, and running whatever queries @rene wants. ;)

@rene Is the issue with smbclient's own config or something more general?

rene

I ran the smbclient as root and mounted the nas, created a symlink to that mount in the data directory of mysql but now mysql gives a err:13 (no write permission) on that directory

and the mysql user does have permission at the filesystem (at least that is what it looks like)

Louis

Can you su to the mysql user and poke the filesystem to see what you get?

rene

hold on

Braiam

@rene I'm not sure about your configuration but maybe in Unix & Linux chat they can help, maybe ask what logs you should look at (my bets are in /var/log/samba and maybe auth.log)

rene

OK, well it looks like the mysql user doesn't have that write permission afterall...

Let me gather some evidence...

@hichris123 :

import re
p = re.compile(ur'love', re.IGNORECASE)
test_str = u"love\nLove\nlOve\n"

re.findAll(p, test_str)

@Braiam strangely enough if I su mysql I can write that to that symlink. It looks more like a mysql permission issue. The auth and samba logs are near empty.

Q: How can you become a supreme leader on Stack Overflow?

How can you become a supreme leader on Stack Overflow? Is there a way to access it? Do you pay money to become that? I'm on the vergen to become one if possible! I have nerves of steel and can handle intruders easily!
