=== Mez|OnAir is now known as Mez [00:25] I hate ubuntu ops [00:25] hello to you too [00:25] kahrytan: oh. okay. [00:25] You guys love to pick on me [00:25] and if i had to second-guess you like you're doing with us, i'd say you've got some kind of victim complex [00:26] huh.. that didnt make sense. [00:26] not this guy again [00:26] kahrytan: perhaps it was my english [00:27] anyway, it was sarcasm, so not really important [00:27] i'm not sure "you guys" is accurate [00:27] I hate being picked on. [00:27] nalioth: you "people" more PC [00:27] we're people? [00:27] kahrytan: Honestly, I havent been following what your bans are about, but we dont do these type of things for no reason. [00:27] LjL: just about [00:27] ubotu, say something [00:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about say something - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [00:28] Today was no reason though. [00:28] ikonia: i don't know who kahrytan is. i don't think i'm included in his "you guys" group [00:28] kahrytan: I believe that your ban was not lifted and you were banned for evasion. [00:28] nalioth➲ i'll exclude you [00:28] nalioth: past experience suggests "you exist" so "your included" [00:28] I evaded? yeah. No I didn't [00:28] my point is that not everyone in here knows who you are or anythbing about you [00:29] kahrytan, perhaps you didn't and it was simply your ISP changing stuff [00:29] Pici➲ I just went to sleep one night, and woke up able to enter. [00:29] still, you were not "banned" today except from a strictly technical point of view [00:29] you were *already* banned [00:29] So, you just messed up then LjL [00:29] uhm, no kahrytan. [00:29] you changed your IP address. [00:30] My isp did [00:30] not my fault [00:30] and? [00:30] you were banned, your ban wasn't lifted [00:30] so you're still banned [00:30] that seems quite logical to me, whether or not it was your ISP's fault [00:30] You just didnt realize people do have dynamic ips [00:30] and your ban was rather dumb too [00:30] i do realize that, unfortunately i have to [00:30] You did it to pick on me [00:31] [00:31] kahrytan, i agree with ikonia. your attitude is far from constructive, i don't think i'm going on with this so-called conversation. [00:31] %btlogin [00:31] I dont have an attitude. [00:32] Just saying ops here like to ban me after I have stopped doing what they told me to stop. [00:32] which is rather stupid and pointless [00:34] LjL➲ you do realize I am complaining? [00:35] yes kahrytan. complains taken into consideration. [00:35] Just for my own reference, this is regarding the harrassment issue in -offtopic? [00:35] Sorta ... [00:35] which I did stop when asked. [00:36] yes Pici, although it got intermixed with the fact that he re-appeared today with a different address, as you know [00:36] LjL: please don't discount the attitude towards you and ompaul [00:37] ikonia, what attitude? oh wait, you mean the attitude he refused to show in the appropriate channels, like for instance this one [00:37] LjL➲ which isnt my fault [00:37] though i see that's being amended [00:37] LjL: yes and the way he did that, [00:37] kahrytan, you keep implying things i'm not saying [00:38] Whats being amended? [00:38] the fact that you didn't complain in the appropriate channels [00:39] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [00:39] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [00:39] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [00:39] LjL: can I tell you again how much I like the floodbots [00:40] looks like they are very effective [00:40] Pici: perhaps i should make the time window shorrter though, i suspect mullcom_ wasn't really a victim [00:41] i suspect otw [00:41] LjL: why not, his quit time looks correct here [00:41] lag is suspect [00:41] Pici: one second late here, after nalioth's kill [00:42] Its all at :03 here. [00:42] LjL➲ I am complaining in proper channels [00:42] kahrytan: indeed, that's what i'm saying. you weren't yesterday, you've fixed that now. although, it is my personal opinion that the way you're doing it isn't doing yourself a favor [00:43] LjL➲ I wasnt complaining yesterday [00:43] uhm well, no, you weren't complaining - on any officially logged channel, that is [00:43] but you and i know you were complaining [00:44] LjL➲ that wasnt a compliant. [00:44] ok then. [00:44] LjL➲ thats just me trying to solve a problem you got with me [00:44] well, matter of definitions. doesn't much matter i guess [00:46] I just know i'm being unfairly treated by ops. [00:47] then articulate your problem with me/us in a logical and civil manner. although perhaps it's already a bit late for that now... but that's what, in my opinion, you should have done to begin with. [00:48] LjL➲ I just did [00:48] oh. well, i think i mistook it for a meaningless rant, sorry. [00:49] i must be a bit tired [00:49] LjL➲ Yesterday was an attempt to solve problem with just you. Now I am taking to it to a group [00:50] On the one hand, No one here really gives a crap what I say. Which proves my point, I'm being unfairly treated. [00:51] it proves it to your own mind. if i had to guess, i'd say if anything it shows how starting a complain with "i hate ubuntu ops" is unlikely to attract sympathy. [00:52] LjL: I applaude your patience... goodnight... [00:53] * LjL wonders if Jack's appearance here was somehow related :) [00:53] LjL➲ I read that as, " I don't give a crap what you say" [00:54] well, i can't and won't speak of anybody else. as far as i am personally concerned, i can confirm that at this stage, no, i really don't give a crap what you say. have a good day [00:54] Which you prooved my point [00:59] i'll stay here til everyone realizes they are treating people in fairly. [01:00] which goes against the name Ubuntu [01:01] kahrytan, however i urge you to read the channel topic [01:03] Why? [01:05] I ready but why ? [01:05] I did read it? [01:06] "The IRC council reserves the right to remove idlers from the channel" [01:06] i'm not idling [01:07] no, you seemed to express your intention to however [01:07] No I didn't [01:08] Idling = Away from Keyboard. I am still physically waiting for more people to be active. [01:10] magnetron called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic (lovedeatm) [01:11] and You also just prooved, LjL, that Ops do abuse me by kicking me [01:17] hello LjL, you invited me [01:17] How do I get ops to stop abusing me and treating me unfairly? [01:17] magnetron, yes i did, as you were mentioned in another channel and, as i understand it, accused of something [01:21] LjL: i only saw that you invited me. what am i accused of, and by whom? [01:21] kahrytan: what I have seen, noone have treated you unfairly [01:22] lovedeatm_: care to explain why you did "[01:14] "<<>>>>" <----explain this i have a vendetta" ? [01:22] Again, abuse by ops. [01:22] kahrytan: disagreed [01:22] kicked me for doing pasting without warning...pissed me off cuz i didnt know [01:22] ive done it before nobody told me i wasnt allowed to do it [01:23] he pmed me about the copy bin [01:23] mmm [01:23] and then kicked me that was it [01:23] i dont thik it was fair [01:23] lovedeatm_, magnetron didn't kick you, i did. [01:24] according to the logs when i scrolled back he atcivated it..so i accuse him [01:25] [Mon Dec 10 2007] [20:11:17] !ops | lovedeatm [01:25] you can't accuse him [01:25] lovedeatm_, that was a call to operators, then operators are called to judge the call. [01:25] and lovedeatm_, i kicked/banned you seeing you were flooding the channel, then read it more carefully and realized it wasn't a malicious flood - just a flood - and unbanned you. how were you harmed? [01:26] ok well i don't know that im very extremely new to linux meanwhile why do you think ti was fair to kick me and as fast [01:26] it was literly like you had some kinda auto kick thinkg goin on [01:26] lovedeatm_, the kick and ban stopped the flood, it was not entirely meant to hurt you. it's common practice [01:26] lovedeatm_: I think LjL just admitted he made a mistake ;) [01:27] agian i don't know this...and all is forgiven [01:27] Tm_T, no, it's common practice to kb to stop a flood [01:27] i made a mistake to and im srry as well [01:27] elkbuntu: yes, I know [01:27] Tm_T: not really, no. things scroll fast, especially when a flood is ongoing, so banning and *then* reading is a practice i don't discourage [01:28] LjL: I know, what I meant, you realised you can lift ban immediately, I misworded, sorry === lovedeatm_ is now known as lovedeatm [01:28] lovedeatm_, it's alright for all i'm concerned. i do suggest that you don't accuse people like that, though... if you're new, try to understand how things work - that doesn't mean you should shut up if you feel you're being treated unfairly, but semi-random accusations aren't good either === lovedeatm is now known as lovedeatm_ [01:29] i understand..but it wasnt well i gues it was semi random but yeah ok [01:29] well thanks ill know that for now on [01:29] lovedeatm_, have you been shown the guidelines? [01:29] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join) [01:29] lovedeatm_, feel free to join this channel and ask, if anything isn't clear to you [01:30] no everything is clear...thank you [01:30] ims sorry for flooding i didnt know [01:30] you were jsut doing your job [01:31] stdin called the ops in #ubuntu () [01:31] lol wow i see what you mean [01:32] heh [01:32] LjL, i think the floodbots got it right :) [01:33] elkbuntu, they certainly did. pity there weren't enough ACTIONs to actually make them start banning === lovedeatm_ is now known as lovedeatm [01:33] i'd have liked to see that [01:33] those floodbots seem pretty smart [01:33] LjL, baby steps. it's great just having the warning when we're not looking in the channel [01:34] stdin: did you not see myself and LjL set modes just before that started? [01:34] magnetron: can I ask who you are and why you are here? just curious :) [01:34] well i wasn't looking anymore to be honest, i thought +rR would kill it [01:35] Tm_T, i invited magnetron here since he was called into cause because of a ban in #ubuntu-offtopic [01:35] ah, roger [01:35] nalioth: yep, but if I call ops then it's less likely 10 people will simultaneously [01:35] i'm glad the issue i was called here for was resolved so easily. Tm_T, i am here LjL invited me [01:35] magnetron: hi and welcome to eaglesnest [01:35] i think i'll leave now LjL [01:35] Tm_T: ty [01:36] yeah srry magnetron [01:36] lataz peeps [01:36] lovedeatm: cu [01:36] magnetron, sure, i think the issue seems settled now [01:36] LjL, why did you think it would kill it? previous mass joins have shown that they simply do their spam with what they've managed to get in [01:36] only if they're registered elkbuntu [01:36] which i (stupidly, if you want) assumed they weren't [01:37] these were all registered, too [01:37] LjL, with bots, i find it's best to assume the worst. i think nalioth would agree [01:37] er, they _were_ registered [01:37] y0 p33pz lol 5houtz 2 h0mez rofl lataz [01:37] mneptok: ok, I marry you [01:38] ummm, what? [01:38] nalioth, i know, i said i *assumed* they weren't. it clearly showed to be a wrong assumption [01:38] * nalioth spilled some bleach in nickservs notebook [01:41] LjL: Just a quick note.. I had no vested interest in your discussion... Just stopped in on my way out to say goodnight.. [01:41] heh ok :) goodnight [01:41] and a hug? [01:41] * LjL now steps back [01:41] Sure.. I give great hugs... ask my wife of 30 years... [01:42] Jack_Sparrow: she stopped returning my ephone calls ~30 years ago [02:10] In ubotu, atoponce said: no ops-#ubuntu-us is Help: atoponce etank jono nixternal pleia2 zelut [02:29] please test me for the dcc exploit [02:29] I was sent to some channel for it [02:30] just got on my pc and followed the instructions [02:30] guess not [02:31] rabidweezle: have you restarted your client after making the changes? [02:31] yep [02:31] :/ [02:31] I'm using xchat [02:32] I set the port to the different port [02:32] 8001 [02:32] and you restarted it? [02:32] looks like it reset itself [02:32] :/ [02:32] no [02:33] click the [X] in the upper right corner [02:33] I went back into the settings and it reverted [02:33] the client has to be restarted after changing the port [02:33] try it now? [02:34] looks like it sticked [02:34] let's see [02:34] it's beyond bull that we have to do this [02:35] * Received a malformed DCC request from nalioth. [02:35] * Contents of packet: DCC SEND THISISNOTATESTOFTHESYSTEM [02:35] rabidweezle: DO NOT DO THAT [02:35] * nalioth headdesks [02:35] do what? [02:35] don't copy and paste it back [02:35] you just attacked everyone in this channel :( [02:35] omg [02:35] how in the heck [02:35] sorry :( [02:36] didn't know [02:36] :) [02:36] I mean :( [02:36] lucky for us, we're all immune [02:36] * rabidweezle nods nods [02:36] rabidweezle: you can rejoin #ubuntu now, and thanks for putting up with us [02:36] ok [02:37] so is that exploit the server's fault? [02:37] no [02:37] no, it's your routers fault :) but switching port works around that [02:38] it's your router softwares doing [02:38] my router is a laptop [02:38] hooked to a hotspot [02:38] so it's their router's fault [02:38] lol [02:39] is there a way to fix the router? (I can login to it) [02:39] if there is an update to it's firmware then it *may* have a fix, but it may not [02:39] there is about a 50% success rate with new firmware [02:40] I shouldn't mess with it's firmware since well, I just can't knock on my neighbor's door and go, "Can you reset your router?" [02:41] hehe [02:41] resetting the port is the surefire method, anyway [02:41] for sure [02:41] thanks for keeping us informed, and death to the trolls that are doing this to us [02:42] but WHY would they attack us? [02:42] I mean, it's not like it don't auto-rejoin... ...and we are just the nice opensource guys [02:43] unless microsoft hired alot of 9 year old hackers *starts a conspiracy theory* [02:43] * rabidweezle stops and just toddles off to the offtopic channel [02:43] thanks again [02:45] hello u guys think i have some sort of dcc bug on my router.... [02:46] i have read the fix but i want to know more about it [02:49] TheFishy: just wait for an ubuntu op to wake up [02:49] well i just want to know more about it... do u know about it? [02:50] what do you want to know? [02:50] well is the exploit just purely from connecting through the 6667 port? [02:50] no, it's a bug in your routers software [02:51] connecting on a different port is a workaround to that === tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso [02:51] my routers software? its a netgear with the highest firmware [02:51] well it has a bug, one they haven't bothered to fix [02:52] what can happen if i dont fix it? [02:52] when someone attacks #ubuntu it will force your connection to the server to drop [02:52] it can be exploited [02:53] all the exploit is, is it will disconnect you [02:53] i haven't been dropped from this server yet... [02:53] and then you'll be banned from #ubuntu and sent to #ubuntu-read-topic when that happens [02:54] if you were sent to #ubuntu-read-topic, then it was [02:54] "[00:39] <-- TheFishy has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))" [02:54] (time's in UTC) [02:57] that was just peer... [02:57] peer always restarts people [02:57] you are the peer :) [02:58] O_o [02:58] hmm [02:58] it means your router reset the connection suddenly [03:00] etank called the ops in #ubuntu-us () [03:00] disregard ^ [03:18] ok so i installed new firmware [03:18] any way to test this exploit? [03:19] TheFIshy: sure [03:21] TheFIshy: guess you need to switch to port 8001 [03:21] ugh lame is this on all irc servers [03:22] TheFIshy: this is in your router [03:22] that makes no sense [03:22] what ports do i block to stop it? === tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso [04:14] he could block 6667 and 8001, that would work /me snickers [06:32] In ubotu, nealmcb said: !mail server is Ubuntu provides mail client and mail server software of all kinds.

[07:46] ..or if any of the other ops know? ... :( [08:17] may I be allowed to join Ubuntu-offtopic again? [08:25] Kagar, LjL set the ban, I cannot see why [09:46] kahryten has gone to the ML btw. (nalioth ljl mneptok) [10:03] in #ubuntu.... asking for help compiling a porn dialer [10:04] lol [10:56] * Hobbsee wishes people would actually read the topics, and not act surprised when they get punished for not following them. [10:56] wheres the topic again? [10:58] * Hobbsee beats Gary [10:58] mmm [10:58] help, help, I'm being repressed! === GazzaK is now known as Gary [11:36] Juhaz called the ops in #ubuntu () [12:10] morning [12:10] afternoon actually , just [12:50] * jussi01 sighs at the guy on the ML... [12:51] jussi01, yeah, we saw. we suspect it's probably a freenode issue now [12:52] elkbuntu: ahhh... k Just read up and saw PriceChild's comments [12:52] yeah, i spoke with him in PM about it already [12:53] why is it a freenode issue now? [12:53] Seeker`, he decided to flood a staffer [12:53] Seeker`, then k-lined [12:55] ah, ok === Hobbsee_ is now known as Hobbsee [13:00] whats the linky to the ban tracker?

[13:03] I wanted to look at Kagar's ban notes [13:03] Gary: is there anything specific you want to know? [13:03] ah, ok [13:03] Gary, do you have a login to the bantracker? [13:03] PriceChild, nope :'( [13:03] as in did seveas turn it on for you? [13:03] no [13:04] Gary, poke him next time you see him to then [13:04] will do [13:07] no, you can't have a pony [13:37] Seveas: are you dishing out coal ? [13:40] no, pony dung [13:40] it may or may not be fossilised [13:42] either way a generous offer from Seveas [14:20] Seveas, but I wanna pony [14:21] I want doesn't get [14:21] meh [14:23] yay pony [14:24] hihi [14:25] Hi!

[14:30] see [14:31] I refer you, kind sir/madam to the /topic of #ubuntu-offtopic [14:32] bad hobbsee, repressing gary. go sit in a corner [14:32] lol [14:32] boring [14:32] repressed in a Python style ? [14:33] ROFL! [14:33] a bit of fun to lighten the day [14:33] nice [14:42] I wish to make a complaint [14:43] * Pici files Gary in triplicate [14:43] I feel that the bantracker might have slighty un justified bans :p [14:44] * Gary got scared when he searched for Gary/GazzaK [14:44] In ubotu, nealmcb said: !JeOS is JeOS (pronounced "Juice") is Just enough Operating System.

Mathias said to put the ones that are ready in now, and update later as necessary. Should I add them, or ask you to do it and the updates? [14:49] ikonia, mostly. the idea, i think, is that you have systems that do something pretty specific (the typical example is a web browsing kiosk) running on a VM to avoid messing up with the real machine [14:50] LjL: an interesting though, but seeing as unusal kit like that normally has problems due to the hardware, virtualisation doesn't seem a good resource to me [14:50] nealmcb, i'm going to review and add in #ubuntu-bots (to avoid people crying "spam" in here) [14:50] LjL: cool [14:51] ikonia, you're the past, virtual appliances are the future.

[16:52] jpatrick: !offtopic, !ettiquite [16:52] etiquette actually (oops) [16:52] Pici: yeah, it's on highlight [16:53] Just curious [16:53] Pici: too late! [16:53] so is willow [16:53] i should probably put compiz and fusion in there too [16:53] I think you'll regret that [16:56] oh, right, i'm in #compiz-fusion [16:56] * Amaranth drops that [16:56] i wish i could do per-channel highlights [16:57] * ikonia patches x-chat for per-channel [17:00] * Pici needs to fix his 'troll' hilight, it keeps picking up words like 'controller' === jpatrick_ is now known as jpatrick [18:26] potential troll mindshift [18:26] can someone check if he has history [18:26] * Pici checks [18:26] ta [18:26] he's getting more relevant, perhaps I'm wrong [18:28] no history [18:28] he's getting a bit more "with it" now [18:28] very random and argumentative before [18:28] just checking [18:28] ta [18:30] 'no history' means nothing when new nicks are just an enter key away [18:31] no, but it never hurts to check before jumping to a conflusion [18:31] he's early comments suggested he'd come in for a fight [18:31] his [18:31] hence the check [18:31] well when i implement mindreading i'll be able to help better [18:31] but then he started to get with it a bit more with it [18:32] ahh I see Pici has picked up on it too === jpatrick_ is now known as jpatrick [19:30] LjL: presumably so he can prove that you are picking on him. [19:30] Pici: right channel to say that in, surely. [19:30] Or at least thats my guess. [19:30] also, surely i insisted for him to join -ops rather than keeping PM'ing me for precisely that reason [19:30] yet he kept refusing [19:30] i'm going for dinner, please make sure he doesn't stay offtopic on #ubuntu for very long [19:31] Surely. [20:19] Hi [20:19] I need help. [20:19] I tried to connect to the "#ubuntu" [20:19] channel [20:19] but its not letting me [20:20] It says I'm blocked when I've never connected to that channel before. [20:20] let me look [20:20] Ok [20:20] Thank you [20:21] Hello? [20:21] Are you still there? [20:21] yes [20:21] let me look [20:22] Ok, thanks again. [20:24] please wait a min or two - have to wait for a machine to work [20:24] Thank you again. [20:26] trying to find a ban [20:26] do you want to try and join can't see anything obvious at the moment [20:27] Ok [20:27] were you trying with that nick? [20:28] Yes [20:28] I can't see a reason for you not being able to get in [20:29] ok... [20:29] I'll look again [20:29] hmmm [20:30] I don't know why [20:30] It keeps saying "Cannot join #ubuntu (you are banned) [20:30] * ompaul goes to look at the ban list again [20:30] Ok [20:35] I can't find a ban that matches you in any way [20:36] * ompaul prods some other ops [20:36] there isn't one for *@*.verison.net is there :p [20:36] there will be one for gary@planetearth real soon :P [20:36] meh [20:36] Gary, have a look I can't see a thing [20:37] pieisgood4589, kinda hard to remove a ban if you can't find it :-( [20:37] Oh. [20:37] Can you check if anything else is wrong? [20:37] Anything at all? [20:37] Or should I contact other help? [20:38] pieisgood4589, other such as? we control the gateway and I can't see your nick in *any* list or any other part of your id [20:39] pieisgood4589, got a ubuntu live cd? [20:39] Yes [20:39] I cannot see any ban which jumps out either ompaul [20:39] pieisgood4589, have you been able to connect? [20:39] care to boot your machine from that and then try to join - if you get in let me know it will give me something more specific to look at [20:40] OK [20:40] One moment [20:49] Ok [20:49] I am connected in the Live CD [20:50] But I can't connect to #ubuntu with my installed system [20:50] I don't know why [20:50] you seem to have a different hostname than before [20:50] Hmmm [20:50] This time i used GAIM, last time I used XChat [20:50] Would that make a difference? [20:50] no, that wouldn't effect it [20:50] OK [20:51] er... you changed from verizon to comcast [20:51] that might do it :) [20:51] OH [20:51] OK [20:51] I connected to the wrong Wireless network [20:51] One moment [20:51] and drop the pie is good stuff might be useful [20:52] OK [20:52] Here we go [20:52] Now I'm connected to the same network [20:52] And I'm banned [20:52] Still banned... [20:53] Even in the LiveCD [20:53] okay that points to the IP [20:53] ... [20:53] * ompaul goes again [20:53] Lol [20:55] ban took place in october [20:56] that was strange [20:56] Oh...

[21:05] it was [21:05] It says I am banned after just joining the channel [21:05] pieisgood4589_, you were told you were offtopic -- it is a tech support channel not a chat channel [21:05] It says that I was banned by "ompaul" [21:05] ? [21:05] Oh... [21:05] Sorry... [21:06] * [h4x0r7h1s] (n=h4x0r7h1@static-70-17-254-78.bltmmd.east.verizon.net): purple [21:07] that ip is not getting back [21:07] for a while [21:07] ompaul: he's in offtopic ;) [21:08] mc44, I only banned him from #ubuntu [21:08] I don't play chasing [21:10] * mc44 chases ompaul [21:10] * somerville32 hugs mc44 [21:11] * ompaul stands stock still [21:12] ompaul, err, except it wasn't the *same* ip. i was just scanning for people on east.verizon.net, and his nickname looked interesting.

[21:16] ;) [21:16] but not ompaul friendly [21:16] you could not cope with that [21:16] :P [21:17] everywhere is ompaul friendly [21:17] you are a national treasure [21:17] 0_o [21:17] ikonia, the only ompaul in village [21:17] www.os-ohmy.com [21:17] * ompaul rofl [21:18] ikonia, I just worked out another gag in that tv program - village people [21:18] .... [21:18] ohhhhhh nooooooooooo [21:18] * ompaul head desks [21:18] :( [21:18] your status as a national treasure is in jepordy [21:18] ikonia, it is funny [21:19] ok [21:19] I'll take your word [21:19] explain [21:19] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7Njt92wgmU [21:20] ikonia, in my mind it happens this way anyway [21:22] :) [21:26] ikonia, ? [21:27] ikonia, you know I was just wondering, kinda sorta having a think, as you might think that I might think, and I want to know, since when am I an sql command string? [21:27] explain that! [21:28] doing it for you [21:29] no thanks [21:29] (how come i could see you speaking anyway) [21:30] voiced [21:30] ah whops right. [21:30] oppage [21:30] well no you weren't opped, but you were definitely voiced [21:32] does voicing overwrite ban ? [21:32] mute [21:32] you cna't mute a voiced person [21:32] overrule I should say [21:32] ahh [21:32] you can't ban a voiced person either [21:32] really [21:33] so if you ban and kick a voiced person can he re-join [21:33] no [21:33] ahhh because he's not got voice untli he joins [21:33] merh [21:38] Myrtti, as in here [21:38] crdlb: what do you mean, you can't ban a voiced person? [21:38] they can't exactly get back in after you kick em :) [21:39] I mean that they can still speak even with a full ban [21:39] crdlb: ah, ok, I guess what I'm calling mute is what you call ban [21:40] that's what he means [21:41] wait, if you're not voiced, you can't speak with a ban against you? [21:41] jdong: no. [21:41] ban > mute [21:41] oh [21:41] shows my IRC newbness then :D [21:41] ban doesn't let you speak *and* doesn't let you goin [21:41] join even [21:41] mute just doesn't let you speak [21:41] ok, that makes sense [21:42] still voice overrides either [21:42] though of course no amount of being voiced will let you join a channel you're banned from [21:45] still it's already the second time in two days i see unpleasant business going on with wols involved [21:45] pf [21:47] LjL, talk with me [21:47] pm [22:03] 'lo all [22:04] hello [22:07] LjL: chin up :) [22:09] ikonia: say wha? [22:09] LjL: vocal support "keep your chin up" you sounded down due to todays dealings [22:10] hm well nah i'm fine, trolls amuse me. but keeping a better posture will probably help my wrist [22:11] ha [22:11] LjL: I think you have to be an English guy to get "chin up" [22:11] yeah even m-w doesn't really give any metaphorical meaning [22:12] m-w ? [22:13] merriam webster [22:14] ahhh [22:14] you know, what everybody uses as their online english dictionary :P [22:14] yes, I know it now [22:14] m-w was just a new name for it [22:15] well it's what the site is called [22:15] always good to know [22:17] i'd use oxford but they charge for online lookup :) [22:17] really [22:17] tad naughty [22:17] * mc44 has a password ;) [22:17] or, i could use paper dictionaries but i never really learn alphabetical ordering [22:18] mc44 surely doesn't need one being the literate genius he is [22:18] sometimes even I don't know obscure 12th century definitions [22:19] shows how not even a superhuman being could have knowledge of everything doesn't it [22:24] anybody knows what is the proper procedure to get ubuntulog in a channel? just mail the address given? [22:33] LjL: http://www.askoxford.com [22:35] Seeker`: ah nice... any idea how compact it is compared to the non-compact dictionary? [22:35] none [22:35] but it seems to have quite a bit [22:36] yeah it has chin up as a figurative expression at least [22:37] I believe it is the compact one [22:37] it is [22:38] but it feels a bit more authorative than dictionary.com [22:39] Seeker`: how cold are you tonight ? [22:39] ikonia: not too bad [22:39] uhm never used that, always stuck to m-w [22:39] had the heating on full since 1pm though [22:40] ikonia: how are you? [22:41] Seeker`: cold, heating on now, and fire lit === jpatrick_ is now known as jpatrick [22:45] cool [22:46] Seeker`: very cool actually [22:46] i meant the fire :P [22:47] no no, thats hot [22:47] ;) [22:50] Seeker`: you should pop around one evening for a mince pie and some mulled wine [22:50] i've got stuff planned every evening for the rest of the week [22:50] and then i'm visiting my parents [22:52] ahhh well [22:52] just a christmas hand offered [22:52] thanks for the offer :) [22:52] not at all [23:41] LjL: the "new" factoid would be something like: [23:41] If you're trying to install KDE4 RC2 but getting errors about files being overwritten, first remove all the KDE4 packages using the !Terminal: « sudo apt-get --purge remove $(dpkg -l | egrep '(KDE 4|KDE PIM 4|-kde4)' |cut -d ' ' -f 3) kdebase-workspace kdebase-runtime » then run « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » - After that install KDE4 as normal [23:42] I don't like it being that long, but that about explains it [23:44] !no brokenkde4 is If you get errors about files being overwritten when installing KDE4 RC2, first use the !terminal to remove old KDE4 packages: « sudo apt-get --purge remove $(dpkg -l | egrep '(KDE 4|KDE PIM 4|-kde4)' |cut -d ' ' -f 3) kdebase-workspace kdebase-runtime ». Then run « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ». Then install KDE4 as normal. [23:44] I'll remember that LjL [23:45] I'm going for the longest factoid record :p [23:45] now !automatix is shortened I think I have a chance [23:46] well as long as it's "temporary fix" factoids, i think it's ok [23:47] it should be, when riddell updates the announcement page it should no longer be needed
