[03:03] <BuckWild> I was told by the topic to come here after I fixed the DCC exploit
[03:03] <BuckWild> what is the deal
[03:06] <PriceChild> BuckWild, an op will be with you shortly hopefully, :) I'm afraid I can't personally help you though.
[03:07] <tritium> BuckWild: did you get kicked due to an exploit?
[03:10] <nalioth> hmm
[03:10] <BuckWild> believe so
[03:25] <BuckWild> argh........
[03:25] <BuckWild> can someone let me back into ubuntu or what
[04:22] <Minataku> [22:21:50]  ubotu maru: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda. << This has typos
[04:23] <Minataku> I don't even speak Spanish and I noticed them... it looks like ubotu threw out the accented characters
[04:32] <BuckWild> Can someone please unban me from ubuntu now
[04:32] <BuckWild> I went through the exploit website thing
[04:32] <BuckWild> either that, or someone can give me help in this channel
[04:33] <BuckWild> why did I go from fully working XP to non-working non-supported ubuntu, wtf was I thinking
[04:33] <tritium> BuckWild: are you sure you're baned?
[04:33] <tritium> banne
[04:33] <tritium> argh, banned
[04:33] <BuckWild> I dunno, it directs me to that ubuntu-read-topic channel everytime
[04:34] <BuckWild> even tho I connect on port 8001
[04:35] <tritium> When did it happen?
[04:36] <BuckWild> couple days ago I think
[04:37] <BuckWild> I do like linux, but I just don't have all the support I need with this, I'm not gonna be able to run my HDTV in correct resolution it looks like...which I can do in XP, maybe I'm just better off being a "lamer" and using XP until I have a more standard set of what I want to do with my puter
[04:38] <BuckWild> for a standard desktop configuration it's awesome, but trying to do anything complicated, just, doesn't really work out too well
[04:39] <BuckWild> then some exploit cuts me off from the chat that gives me some what of a semblance of support
[04:39] <BuckWild> and I'm really frustrated
[04:39] <BuckWild> I'm out for a while
[05:00] <Remy>  #ubuntu-read-topic told me to come here!
[05:00] <Remy> fixored ?
[05:01] <Hobbsee> Remy: for the exploit?
[05:01] <Remy> yup
[05:02] <Hobbsee> seems OK
[05:02] <Hobbsee> Remy: you're connected to port 8001 now?
[05:02] <Remy> I reconnect through port 8001
[05:02] <Remy> yup
[05:02] <Remy> *reconnected
[05:02] <Hobbsee> cool :)
[05:03] <Hobbsee> Remy: done :)
[05:03] <Remy> you sir are a jellyfish and a schollop.
[05:03] <Remy> thank you for your time :)
[11:31] <jenda> So... how many times did I disconnect since yesterday?
[11:32] <jenda> (looks like five... I should really order an assassination of a few executives...)
[11:32] <Seeker`> jenda: ISP problems?
[11:33] <jenda> Very much so.
[11:37] <Seeker`> jenda: Send them an email telling them that  "Every time I get disconnected, I will kill you"
[11:38] <jenda> hehe
[11:38] <jenda> What's worse, they suggest my modem can't stand the load of IRC
[11:38] <Kamping_Kaiser> jenda: or simply email them every time you disconnect
[11:38] <jenda> Kamping_Kaiser: write me a script for it ;)
[11:38] <Seeker`> the "load" of IRC?!
[11:38] <jenda> yes
[11:38] <jenda> which is a load of something else ;)
[11:39] <Kamping_Kaiser> jenda: read logs -> if you disconnect -> email random 4mb file -> loop
[11:39] <Kamping_Kaiser> ;)
[11:39] <thoreauputic> jenda: hahah - wow, IRC is eating your modem!
[11:39] <jenda> :
[11:39] <jenda> :{
[11:39] <jenda> *:)
[11:40] <jenda> Sorry, my typing skills went down the drain - I don't have my glasses for another 20 minutes :-D
[11:40] <Seeker`> jenda: Ask them if it can cope with things like youtube
[11:40] <thoreauputic> jenda: all that *huge* bandwidth from trolls flooding channels!
[11:40] <jenda> yeah
[11:40] <jenda> I measured a whole 4 megabytes a day or something.
[11:41] <jenda> The funny thing is that they measured 800...
[11:41] <thoreauputic> jenda: send them a nicely wrapped clue :)
[11:41] <jenda> thoreauputic: :-D
[11:41] <GazzaK> thoreauputic, thats illegal to send waste in the postal system :p
[11:41] <thoreauputic> GazzaK: heheh
[11:41] <GazzaK> counts as a bio-hazard
[11:41] <thoreauputic> unsolicited clues!
[11:41] <GazzaK> sadly
[11:42] <Seeker`> GazzaK: You worry me, you really do
[11:42] <GazzaK> it is however legal (I think) to use a courier service to deliver it
[11:42] <thoreauputic> GazzaK: he should tell them they can impprove their IQ by listening to classical music ;)
[11:42] <Seveas> jenda, if your connection is still working, please cloak dktrkranz
[11:43] <GazzaK> Seeker`, a mate of mine set up a dodgy mail order company a few years ago, for sending "distasteful" items to former lovers/bosses
[11:43] <elkbuntu> GazzaK, has to be, or else manure would not be able to be delivered for composting purposes ;)
[11:43] <jenda> Seveas: k
[11:44] <GazzaK> morning Seveas
[11:44] <Seveas> evenin'
[11:44] <jenda> GazzaK: great idea :) Then I can sue them for the cash it cost me ;)
[11:44] <jenda> Seveas: done
[11:45] <GazzaK> Seveas, I thought you were in NL?
[11:45] <jenda> ew
[11:45] <jenda> :)
[11:45] <jenda> Seveas: going to UDS?
[11:45] <Seveas> GazzaK, I am :)
[11:45] <Seveas> jenda, no idea
[11:45] <GazzaK> so it's morning then?
[11:45] <jenda> or Ubucon
[11:45] <jenda> Seveas: ok :)
[11:46] <Seveas> ubucon most likely not
[11:46] <Seveas> and I doubt I'll have time for UDS
[12:15] <elkbuntu> and i have no clue if i'll get to any of the above

[01:42] <Seeker`> Are ubuntu-women a loco team now?
[01:42] <pleia2> I'm not sure how UW was originally set up, the site is hosted on a loco box
[01:42] <gnomefreak> Seeker`: it will never be a loco team
[01:43] <gnomefreak> loco teams are more like ubuntu-es
[01:43] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-chicago
[01:43] <GazzaK> ubuntu-uk \o/
[01:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> lol
[01:44] <gnomefreak> i do believe you can make it an *official* team but i dont know what that gives you that you dont already have
[01:44] <Seeker`> gnomefreak: I know that loco teams are like -uk and -es, it just sounded like they were one
[01:47] <elkbuntu> Seeker`, not as such, no.
[01:48] <gnomefreak> Seeker`: you talk to jono
[01:49] <Kamping_Kaiser> and loose a kidney ;)
[01:49] <elkbuntu> gnomefreak, or me
[01:49] <gnomefreak> or elky :)
[01:50] <Seeker`> gnomefreak: You mean to make a LoCo offical? or any team?
[01:50] <gnomefreak> Seeker`: either
[01:50] <Seeker`> elkbuntu...
[01:50] <gnomefreak> jono & elkbuntu make that happen
[01:50] <gnomefreak> or help you work in that way

[03:24] <buckwild> umm
[03:25] <buckwild> question: can anyone get into #ubuntu, because I'm connecting through a java client
[03:25] <PriceChild> Hey buckwild
[03:25] <buckwild> and I still can't
[03:25] <PriceChild> buckwild, were you in yday cuz of the dcc exploit?
[03:25] <PriceChild> having to change port?
[03:25] <buckwild> I had the problem at home once
[03:25] <buckwild> but I'm on an entirely different computer
[03:25] <buckwild> on a different network
[03:26] <buckwild> is it associated with my nick?
[03:26] <buckwild> haha
[03:26] <PriceChild> buckwild, I've just read the bantracker... please follow instructinos in the following factoid
[03:27] <PriceChild> !dcc | buckwild
[03:27] <ubotu> buckwild: There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[03:27] <buckwild> pricechild: I'm at work
[03:27] <buckwild> I had the issue at home
[03:27] <buckwild> I'm connecting from a java client
[03:27] <buckwild> is this nick just banned?
[03:27] <LjL> buckwild, i'll let you in
[03:27] <LjL> yes
[03:27] <buckwild> gotcha
[03:28] <PriceChild> buckwild, please follow those instructions when you get home though :)
[03:28] <buckwild> already did
[03:28] <PriceChild> gd gd
[03:28] <PriceChild> Sorry for it taking so long :)
[03:28] <buckwild> np
[04:54] <ubotu> In #ubuntu, Slaughterer said: ubotu: it is not a partition, it is another hard drive
[04:54] <PriceChild> !bot > Slaughterer
[04:59] <tsmithe> haha
[05:06] <mneptok> Eliza module time.
[05:30] <LjL> 82.230's joining and parting #ubuntu... again...
[05:30] <PriceChild> *83.230 ?
[05:31] <LjL> PriceChild: yes, it's spanish people that quite often start trolling in #ubuntu
[05:31] <PriceChild> No, as in don't you mean 83 not 82? :)
[05:32] <LjL> PriceChild: ah yes, i do mean that
[05:32] <PriceChild> :)
[05:32] <PriceChild> You're getting slack LjL :P
[05:32] <LjL> perhaps there's not much to watch, they do this quite often. just *sometimes* they start trolling - in general, they tend to just join and part quickly
[05:33] <LjL> PriceChild: well, when we switch to IPv6, i won't be able to remember any address anymore at all :P
[05:33] <PriceChild> hehe "when" :)
[05:33] <LjL> if.
[05:38] <PriceChild> LjL, still watching?
[05:53] <LjL> PriceChild: nope, was smoking and talking about the origin of the telephone wrt the telegraph :P
[05:53] <PriceChild> Hehe :)
[05:54] <PriceChild> A couple of nicks popped in with a random string of letters then disappeared again
[05:54] <PriceChild> from 83.230
[05:54] <LjL> yeah i'm looking at that
[05:55] <LjL> the typical holaaaaaaaaaaaaa... you never know if it's trolls or just...
[05:56] <ubotu> In #ubuntuforums, tsmithe said: !howdy is <alias> hi
[05:57] <LjL> again, hola and then quits immediately
[05:57] <LjL> i'd like to strangle them
[05:58] <tsmithe> why doesn't it constitute spam, if you are so worried?
[05:58] <LjL> it *is* spam, the joins and parts are annoying, as are the "holaaa"s. but the IP addresses are always different (though always 83.230)
[05:58] <PriceChild> tsmithe, can't exactly block the whole 83.230
[05:58] <LjL> see, he joined again with the same nickname this time
[05:58] <LjL> surely not, it's a legitimate network overall
[05:58] <tsmithe> yeah
[05:59] <LjL> well, 95% of the people from it just do what i described, but
[05:59] <tsmithe> hum
[07:11] <ubotu> In #ubuntuforums, tsmithe said: !howdy is <alias> hi
[07:11] <LjL> you just keep trying :P
[07:15] <PriceChild> lol
[07:29] <tsmithe> LjL, i do indeed

[07:31] <LjL> pah? you really *liked* that? :P
[07:31] <mc44> "If you need help, ask tsmithe. In a private message. Repeatedly"
[07:31] <LjL> in caps.
[07:31] <tsmithe> no
[07:31] <tsmithe> you could delete !tsmithe and have !howdy
[07:31] <LjL> eh?
[07:31] <LjL> !tsmithe
[07:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tsmithe - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:28] <PriceChild> nalioth, I just don't wanna make your computer keep beeping and annoying you unnecessarily sorry
[08:31] <nalioth> PriceChild: i am awake.  the email beeps, the console beeps when it's done compiling . . . .
[08:31] <PriceChild> :)
[08:31] <nalioth> if i don't like the beeps, i turn the volume off

[10:08] <mc44> probably hasnt noticed, no one listens to LjL anyway :)
[10:08] <DBO> haha
[10:08] <DBO> he was playing with the damn morse code thing
[10:08] <LjL> mc44: i've noticed quite well :P
[10:09] <DBO> I figured I'd take the shot at him while I could
[10:09] <DBO> since you know, taking the shot at the regulars wasnt fair, and it would get the message across
[10:09] <LjL> anyway i'm innocent, i just type some little morse... it's the *others* that fill everything with 10 lines of @unmorsed morse recursively! :P
[10:10] <DBO> yeah
[10:11] <DBO> but you I can hit with a ban stick and not worry about users complaining
