tonyyarussoHobbsee, elkbuntu: So I'm reading a book about visiting Australia, and he keeps going on about how many venomous creatures there are there.  Ever had an unfortunate encounter?01:50
Hobbseeno01:50
Hobbseeoh, a couple01:50
Hobbseenothing major though01:50
naliothtonyyarusso: you are surrounded by venemous creatures all around you, have you ever been encountered?01:51
tonyyarussoHobbsee: So "nothing major" in Australian means like there are only funnel web spiders in three of the eight corners of my bedroom?01:52
Kamping_Kaisertonyyarusso, i have redbacks, do tehy count?01:52
Hobbseehehe01:52
tonyyarussoKamping_Kaiser: sure.  :)01:52
Kamping_Kaisertonyyarusso, then yes, only in 3 corners :)01:52
Kamping_Kaisertonyyarusso, what does 'unfortunate encounter' entail anyway?01:54
tonyyarussoKamping_Kaiser: dunno, some venom, a day or two in a hospital, last rites, that sort of thing.01:55
Kamping_Kaisernah, dont remember having died before01:56
naliothtonyyarusso: most folks you talk to here live in metropolises of various sizes. not so many venemous animals (just like in north america)01:56
=== nalioth thinks tonyyarusso is having a shoe sandwich
tonyyarussoa shoe sandwich?  chewy01:56
naliothi find your line of questioning insulting, actually.  perhaps i'm reading it wrong01:57
tonyyarussoOh?  Didn't mean it like that at all...01:58
naliothtonyyarusso: here in NorthAM, we have venomous snakes, lizards, spiders, and probably some other forms of life i can't remember atm.  just because you live in NorthAM, do you have to watch where you step all the time?01:58
tonyyarussonalioth: No, but we don't have as many.  The author is writing about this while in the suburbs of Sydney, btw.  Apparently they have a number of the "most poisonous _____" sorts of things.01:59
=== tonyyarusso was mostly joking, but is apparently being taken far too seriously today - sorry all
naliothtonyyarusso: go ahead and visit Australia.  I think you'll be fine (no matter what that author thinks)02:03
tonyyarussoI'd love to sometime.  Will probably do my dream trip of the north half first though (every country that touches the Arctic Ocean and/or Artic Circle)02:04

ubotuThe linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands02:30
tonyyarusso!tell Bubblemanx about terminal02:30
Madpilottonyyarusso, remote control noob assistance. Cool. ;)02:33
tonyyarussoMadpilot: You should have seen the day I compiled and installed something for a guy via VNC while he was in the shower.02:34
tonyyarussoI had a root console on the machine of someone I didn't know - it was crazy.02:34
Madpilotthen went looking for his sekrit pr0n stash before he got out of the shower?02:35
Madpilota very trusting noob02:35

ubotuthc|work: The #ubuntu channel and related channels ban users joining from anonymous gateways like tor/silenceisdefeat/cgi:irc because the abuse:useful ratio is close to infinity:nothing -- project cloaks will let you join, otherwise you should simply not use an anonymizer.04:44
ubotuAttention tor users.  You may think you are anonymous, but you are not.  Please visit http://tor.unixgu.ru/ and see for yourself.   Please evaluate your need to use tor here on irc.  If you wish anonymity, Freenode offers cloaks of many different types. http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks04:44

Smorgof course they have to be for tor to function07:36
naliothladies and gentlemen, this is not a social channel, if you want access to #ubuntu, Freenode offers cloaks for anonymity and it also offers "gpg-tor" access which is not shunned by some of the channels here07:38

ompaulPriceChild, what was that about proxy?11:10
PriceChild!proxy11:10
ubotuThe #ubuntu channel and related channels ban users joining from anonymous gateways like tor/silenceisdefeat/cgi:irc because the abuse:useful ratio is close to infinity:nothing -- project cloaks will let you join, otherwise you should simply not use an anonymizer.11:11
ubotuAttention tor users.  You may think you are anonymous, but you are not.  Please visit http://tor.unixgu.ru/ and see for yourself.   Please evaluate your need to use tor here on irc.  If you wish anonymity, Freenode offers cloaks of many different types. http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks11:11
tonyyarussore: earlier, very few people have ops in -meeting, so it can be hard to find one on the rare occasion that it's needed.11:11
PriceChildompaul, basically he got forwarded here from ubuntu because he has a tor connection11:11

ikoniamy request is simple - I would like to request that the policy on using ubot output redirection is directed using a pm ">" rather than on screen as the ammount of ubot abuse (not bad - just over use) is making the channel very confusing, eg: constant !nvidia !wireless !mp3 !etc11:48
ikoniait would be nicer if the policy was !nvidia >$user11:48
ikoniaI appriciate its a big ask, and just request consideration11:49
ompaulthen you have to explain to the user what a PM is11:49
ompaulikonia, if you want to put it in as bug on launchpad but I don't think it would come to pass11:49
ikonianot really - with a minor change to ubot so the output is auto directed to > rather than |11:49
ikoniaI don't think it would either, I was just curious on you guys views on it11:49
ompaul I would be opposed to it11:50
ikoniaif it was just me that found it frustrating or if it was a genuine problem11:50
ikoniaahhh interesting, could you explain11:50
ompaulas I use this |11:50
ikoniaompaul: yes, but that still outputs to screen11:50
ompaulit means that people who don't know stuff can see it11:50
ompauland in a channel of 1k + users11:50
ikoniaeg: "!restrictedformats" is about 8 lines long11:50
ompaulthat is a bit over the top11:50
ikoniaompaul: yes, thats why I didn't put the bot on ignore11:50
ompaulI used to put the likes of that in on 1 line and point to a url11:51
ompaulhmm11:51
ikoniabut the last few days everyone is !nvidia !help !wirless !etc and its just making the channel impossible to follow11:51
ikoniaits only been bad of late11:51
ikoniahence why its only just frustrated me11:51
ompaulwell I'll talk with seveas about making them shorter11:51
ikoniaI appriciate I'm one user, never hurts to ask though11:51
tonyyarussoikonia: so, /msg ubotu tell soandso about msg the bot  ;)11:52
ikoniaswap to the channel - in under a minute 3 people have done !worksforme11:52
ikoniatonyyarusso: could do - but every user ? hence why I was requesting a policy update11:53
ikoniaI was just curious to feedback if it was frustrating anyone else, or just me finding it a bit tiresome11:53
tonyyarussonot sure'11:53
ikoniajust thought it may be interesting to discuss11:54
ompaulthen lead by example with ! foo > user11:54
ikoniahappy to be wrong on this11:54
ikoniaompaul: I already do11:54
ompaulalso tell others verbosely in the channel11:54
ompaul:)11:54
ikoniaI try - but its not my place to11:54
ikoniahence discussion here11:54
ikoniahappy to be wrong on it, just thought I'd see what you guys thought11:55
ompaulplease stop saying happy to be wrong11:55
ikoniawell, I just didn't want to be "pushy" on it like I was moaning, I was just interested11:55
ompaulI wonder if you should to !msgthebot11:55
ompaul !msgthebot11:56
ubotuPlease investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...11:56
ikoniaompaul: but then thats another !something on screen that keeps "appearing"11:56
ompaulmaybe I could expand that to usebot11:56
ikoniaI was trying to reduce the ammount of !noise on screen11:56
ompaulyou need to break eggs to make an omlette11:56
ikoniaeg: - look at this11:56
ompaulso if your !noise is towards11:56
ikonia<Pelo> !restricted11:56
ikonia<OCgraphikz> got the updates11:56
ikonia<ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats11:56
ompaulI cam seeing it11:56
ikoniaahhh11:57
ikoniadidn't see you in channel11:57
ikonia!multimedia and !resolution 3 lines apart just flooded my screen11:57
ompaulyou made your point about 10 minutes ago11:57
ikoniaooh right11:58
ompaulso I tried to enter a discussion with you and you keep saying the same stuff11:58
ompaulnow can we work on this?11:58
ikoniawasn't sure it was clear how often its happening11:58
ikoniasure, happy to work on it11:58
ompaulmy idea is that I make a nice little short one11:58
ikoniathats a great step11:58
ompaulthat is like one line11:58
ikonialess is more11:58
ikoniajust the URL for example11:58
ompaulexplains how to tell a user using the bot11:58
ompaulno11:58
ikoniaooh11:58
ikoniamissed the point11:58
ompaulyou need to tell someone what they are doing11:59
ikoniaok11:59
ikoniaexplain11:59
ompaulso if you put a really detailed web page up11:59
ompaulexplaining a "full case http://wiki.ubuntu.com/goodbotuse11:59
ompauland we prefix this with11:59
mc44#ubuntu will be scrolling past too fast even without ubotu responses12:00
ompaulso it looks like: !goodbotuse > user12:00
ompauland that factoid says12:00
trollboyany word on the wrt54g's patching the bug yet?12:00
ikoniaompaul: that seems a reasonable step12:01
ompaulto use the bot better - have it message the information to the user - it is easier for them to access and does not create noise in the channel please see  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/goodbotuse for more information12:01
ikoniaompaul: I see where you're going12:01
ompaulthen say OI user read message from bot12:02
ikoniayes, thats a start12:02
ikoniacould see how it goes12:02
ompaulikonia, so I can leave that wiki page for you12:02
ikoniareview it at a later data12:02
ompaulthen come back to me12:02
ikoniaompaul: if you'd like me to write it, I'd be happy12:02
ompaulwell it is your idea I am just advising how you can achieve your goal12:03
ikoniaompaul: no problem, I'll write it12:03
ikoniathanks for the feedback12:03
