Votes are public.
So the gear on the post window will give you the option to make a poll and you can put pictures in them. I did not know this. Also, the 'name' attribute is [poll name=NAME] "name=NAME" You can make the voters visible by using "public=true". You're welcome.
Not in my experience. They have special torches for doing that and it works fine.
100% Brown is waste of quality steak??? No dude you got it the wrong way around.
I don't want blood coming out of meat when i stick a fork into it.
yes
Still has not crashed my firefox :)
Not many Jazz aficionados. Sad face.
We're here bud... Not exclusively jazz though, but let's say 50% although it dropped to 30% lately because of new retro wave :)
Perhaps slightly off topic, but @turin231 and @Trooper_ish, I was looking and I am still looking to purchase an Ubuntu phone. I will probably get around to it in the coming year or so (I'm never in a hurry to give money).
Would be kind of nice (I am certainly interested anyway, and probably more people would be) if you shared your experience with the Ubuntu phones. Do they work well as phones, do they work well as computers, do they tether, are they really full Linux, etc.
Personally I had a pretty good experience with the phone. But i use smart-phones for very specific stuff and not really as extensive as many people. Personally i find the specific design of the OS great. As much as i do not like Unity on the desktop, on the phone it is amazing. The scopes are useful (although their quality varies. Some are amazing some are bad - but you can choose accordingly). In the beginning using it might be a little awkward and confusing but once you understand the gestures you can basically control any aspect of the phone but with your thumb on one hand. Android and iOS devices seem primitive to me now.
As phone it works brilliantly. I had absolutely no issue. Plus the dual sim is handy and switching between the two is very straightforward and quick. As a computer it is rooted, you have terminal apps and if you would really like you can install anything you wish on it. It might screw up the phone but you can do it. It is supposed to be a full fledged linux OS that you can even plug in on a screen and have a desktop version of it. But i must admit i have not tested that yet. Good battery life as well, if you do not use the wifi. With the wifi constantly on it lasts about a day. Without it several. Again though i am not a heavy user. There is definitely some tethering once in a while (especially when i unlock the phone after a long time), but mind you i have the cheap BQ phone (and that is gone as far as i know). I suppose the Meizu variant will not have such issues. But it does not bother me that much.
The only real issue is the app availability. For my usage it covers me well. The only thing i was missing was a keepass app that someone made last march. All the basic universal apps are there as well, either by official sources or as unofficial apps. The only widely used ones that are not there is whatsapp and Viber. Official apps are not developed yet and because of the way are made, no 3rd party can really support an unofficial one. But i am covered by Telegram personally. The software environment is slowly build up but it is not there yet. Ubuntu phone is still in the early adoption phase. So if you are doing heavy usage of the app environment in your current phone expect that you will find the app environment lacking for now.
Actually i just went to the ubuntu phone site...The meizu is also sold out. Both versions of it...So basically all the device variants for ubuntu phone are gone..Which is not a bad thing for canonical but you have to wait for the next release to get one...
I am a very tough customer when it comes to apps. At work I do use (and develop) apps among other things. In private, I am not connected to any cloud (I USB-backup), not connected to any Google Apps, I avoid privacy leakages, I rooted and removed the "undeletable" default shit apps, called my ISP to tell them to stop SMS-marketing to me or calling me to market shit, I don't fetch or run JavaScript, I don't fetch images when surfing, etc. Total control-freaky. I am coding my own suite of "apps"/functions I need for the Android phone, and will probably continue using the phone part of the phone as a phone, and the computer part as a personal computer the way a personal computer used to be (oh the peaceful bliss of the eighties!), with the benefit of emergency use of default maps and browser apps - for emergency fallbacks. You seem to confirm Ubuntu phone as an ideal choice for my private use, given the default apps for surfing and maps are useful :) .
The only thing I may come to miss is the digital id-apps which enable me to get public service and which I can install on Android, although I haven't :p .
Not in a hurry, will keep an eye out and see if it appears while I happen to have the sum to spend on it. Thank you.
Hi, @Blunderbuss, late to respond, but as @turin231 mentioned, apps are pretty thin on the ground. The MX4 has a good camera, battery, and screen, but would really shine if one used gmail, as it does not push many notifications.
The LTE is good in the UK on the isp EE, but may not cover many bands, so worth checking out.
I find it works well as a phone+browser, but some web content is not supported I.E. flash.
Personally I'm not really into social apps like whatsapp, which is not supported, so not too fussed on that front.
I also seldom connect to my linux rigs, though it does have terminal apps if that was of interrest, its an option.
Basically I need a phone and browser, and it works very well.
I know Martin Wimpress of ubuntu Mate fame has flashed an MX5 international to use ubuntu touch, so might be worth looking at that as a possible direction, but check his blog first. Will update tomorrow after sleep when I google where he posted his journey... [edit] Link used to install ubuntu touch in the answers of:
And the show I got the link from:

[Edit 2] have not tried this myself, please research before bricking your device... [/edit 2]
What. No ventrilo?
Thank you very much. Will look into it :) .
Cool beans; if you do, maybe post a blog about it? Otherwise its interresting just looking into it
I clicked on this to waited for Crome to crash, and was disappointed because it didn't.
I guess I should fix the title
