| foocoin bitcoin dogecoin cgminer | <reply> Ubuntu's repositories do not include clients for most cryptocurrencies. You will need to use a !PPA or !compile from source to get them. Since neither of these options is officially supported, consider asking your cryptocurrency's IRC channel (see !alis) for help. | rww Added on: 2014-03-09 02:08:12 Never edited Requested 14 times |

| 3rdparty | <reply> Packages contained in 3rd party repositories are not included in Ubuntu for a reason. Whether this be poor packaging standards, bugs or malicious authors. You should trust the maintainers of these repositories before using them. See http://ubuntuforums.…p?t=297814 for consequences. | ompaul Added on: 2008-02-24 22:00:39 Last edited by PriceChild Last modified: 2008-02-24 22:13:37 Requested 14 times |
| nickfork-#ubuntu-offtopic | a silly little game for offtopic channels ONLY. The way it works is you pick out a random nick from the /names list (works best if they're idle), have a bunch of people switch to something similar (scrambles, reverse, 1337speak), and see how long it takes for the real person to catch on. Have fun! | tonyyarusso Added on: 2008-02-20 09:55:16 Last edited by rww Last modified: 2011-04-06 06:16:22 Requested 14 times |
