ompaulPriceChild, pm18:43
PriceChildLjL, are you around?18:44
_Oz_Hello, all.18:51
_Oz_I have been defeated by ompaul, who kicked and then banned me from #ubuntu for not following the rules.  Rather than be humbled/humiliated by being forced to arrive here and beg for reinstatement, I attempted to get along without #ubuntu.18:52
_Oz_But I have discovered that it is difficult to do that.  #ubuntu is a great resource.18:52
_Oz_So I come here to humbly ask for forgiveness, and for reinstatement.18:53
_Oz_I stand ready to prove that I will stay on topic better next time, although I do feel ompaul was unnecessarily hard on me by banning me for something which seemed very insignificant to me at the time.18:53
PriceChild_Oz_, one moment please.18:54
_Oz_However, I realize that #ubuntu is a resource, and with such great interest in the OS it is occasionally necessary to be heavy-handed to keep the channel on an even keel.18:54
PriceChild_Oz_, remind me what you actually did?18:55
_Oz_A person came into the channel and changed his nick.18:55
_Oz_ompaul told him not to change his nick in the channel due to scroll.18:56
_Oz_The person explained that the server forced him to change his nick due to a nick collision or something.18:56
_Oz_ompaul wouldn't let it drop, and I tried to (politely) tell ompaul that in this case this person had no other choice than to change his nick.18:56
_Oz_ompaul then banned me.18:56
_Oz_Next time I will not mention it.18:57
_Oz_I simply wish to use #ubuntu as a resource both to learn and help others.  I will not engage in conversations related to anything but that.18:57
ompaul_Oz_, I last said to you --  Feb 16 23:55:31 <ompaul>        now read the guidelines and drop into #ubuntu-ops when you are done cheers18:58
ompauldid you?18:58
_Oz_I did indeed.18:58
ompaulnow in fact the reason you made the channel scroll was?18:59
_Oz_Getting offtpic.18:59
ubotuIn ubotu, sinbox said: !pizza is An oven baked circle of dough topped with tomato sauce and whichever favourite toppings you like18:59
PriceChild_Oz_, I do not see ompaul replying to you for 10 minutes, and then you attempting to send him !patience, after you have just been warned for offtopic chatter by another op?19:00
ompaulno actually being a pain19:00
ompaulreally you were told you were offtopic19:01
ompaulyou played a little game trying to guess an anagram 19:01
_Oz_That's right, I forgot about that.19:01
_Oz_I did do that.19:01
_Oz_It's been awhile now.19:01
_Oz_Definitely not in the rules.19:01
PriceChild_Oz_, you forgot that? What I just said kind of goes against what you thought happenned? "ompaul wouldn't let it drop"19:01
ompaulthat is exactly how you endear yourself to other19:01
ompauls19:02
_Oz_Like I said, I just want to stick to Ubuntu topics only. NO anagrams, no discussion about rules, etc. I apologize for being rude if that was perceived as such.19:02
PriceChild_Oz_, have you read the ubuntu guidelines?19:02
_Oz_They are sitting on my screen right now!19:02
ompaulDon't be annoying19:03
ompaul    *19:03
ompaul      Flooding, away messages, repeating and bot abuse are not the only ways you can be annoying. Personal attacks when things don't go as planned, continued misbehaving after you have been advised against, and similar behaviour will be rewarded with a ban.19:03
_Oz_I was not aware that ompaul was an op and thought !patience was appropriate at that time because he was, in my view at that time, needlessly needling a person about an unavoidable nick change.  I recognize in retrospect I was bein rude and, er, annoying.19:03
ompaulehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh19:03
ompaulyou were warned off and told you were offtopic19:04
ompaulit does not matter who tells you 19:04
ompaulyou need to respect all those around you - and they will more than likely do likewise19:04
_Oz_I stand ready to be flagellated further.19:04
ompaulno you don't19:04
ompaulwe are not beating you u19:04
ompaulup19:04
PriceChildI've just noticed that jrib was caught with the mutes. I am removing all of those now.19:04
_Oz_Bottom line is this: #ubuntu-offtopic is fine for chatter and #ubuntu will only be used by me either to help others or to ask specific questions.  Period.19:05
ompaulwhy did you get banned from -offtopic?19:05
_Oz_I don't know what else to say other than that.19:05
ompaul!o4o19:05
_Oz_I'm not banned?19:05
_Oz_I'm in there right now.19:05
* ompaul read it as such19:05
jribhrmph19:05
ubotuSome things are inappropriate for #ubuntu-ops. Controversial topics, which always turn into flamewars: war, race, religion, politics (unless related to software licencing), gender, sexuality, drugs, questionable legal activities, removing of oneself from the planet (except by space or time travel) are not for here, perhaps #off-topic or ##politics. Microsoft software in ##windows (Please note Freenode Policy) - Thanks.19:06
PriceChild_Oz_, "I was not aware that ompaul was an op" - why should that have any bearing on the situation?19:06
ompaulyou got removed from there19:07
_Oz_Because, pricechild, sending !patience to an op would be construed by most to be disrespectful and intentionally rude.  At that time I thought ompaul was just another user getting a little too prickly with a person who was clearly not tryuing to break any rules.  In retrospect, I should have remained uninvolved.19:07
PriceChild_Oz_, We are *all* just other users.19:08
_Oz_I understand.19:08
PriceChild_Oz_, the fact that we have access in #ubuntu should have no relevance. I don't think its acceptable to treat anyone else in there worse than you would me.19:08
ompaulhowever you were continuing to behave badly trying to guess that anagram - and as I said already: mpaul> you need to respect all those around you - and they will more than likely do likewise19:08
_Oz_ompaul: I apologize for that.  I don't know what else to say.19:09
_Oz_there wasn't much chatter at the time, someone invited me to guess what their name meant as an anagram.  A light-hearted moment.  However, it's not the way it works in #ubuntu as I can now see.19:09
ompaul_Oz_, I have issues with lifting your ban - it seems to me that you missed the point of what is going on and still do let me think for a few mins please 19:09
_Oz_OK.19:10
PriceChild_Oz_, I would like to suggest you are a little more sparing with the bot in future.19:10
PriceChild_Oz_, to be very blunt, I have found complaints directed at the *entire* #ubuntu channel on ubuntuforums.org, using quotes of your participation.19:11
ompaulbrb - give me two or three mins19:11
_Oz_What does that mean?19:11
PriceChild_Oz_, People have posted on ubuntuforums.org, saying how #ubuntu is rubbish, because of a bad experience at getting support in which you were involved.19:12
_Oz_Really?  Can I see the URL?  I have helped a number of people.19:12
PriceChild_Oz_, In future please read users statements more fully before sending bot commands. In the past they have not been suitable, the "!patience" factoid to ompaul earlier would be a prime example.19:14
_Oz_Yeah, I'm not using !patience ever again.19:14
_Oz_In fact, I'm only going to use stock answers for specific questions such as !medibuntu and such.19:14
PriceChild_Oz_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=70299019:15
PriceChild_Oz_, I'm not saying don't use these factoids, I'm just suggesting you are more careful.19:15
PriceChild_Oz_, We value every user in #ubuntu that gives support and don't want you to limit the valuable support you can give.19:16
_Oz_What in the world? I had nothing to do with anyone posting on that thread.19:16
_Oz_That certainly wasn't me, in the OP's original example.19:16
PriceChild_Oz_, my logs match you up as "User2"19:17
_Oz_Well, I think I can provide some help.  Not as much as some others, because I don't know as much, but I'm starting to learn more.19:17
_Oz_That was NOT me.19:17
_Oz_I will admit to what I've done wrong, and have done so, but I never said those things.19:18
ompaul_Oz_, see the thing is we are all involved in various aspects of the Ubuntu project 19:18
ompaulanyway - give me a moment19:18
_Oz_It's an awesome project.19:18
PriceChildIts irrelevant.19:18
PriceChild_Oz_, we would like to let you back into #ubuntu, but please listen to my suggestions above.19:18
_Oz_I have heard them and I will abide by them, Pricechild.19:19
PriceChildGood to hear.19:19
ompaul_Oz_, the door is open 19:20
ompaulplease part this channel19:20
_Oz_Thank you all.19:20
PriceChildMy logs show someone using that nickname this past month on two hostnames.19:20
PriceChildthat one, and adsl-210-201-198.ard.bellsouth.net19:21
PriceChildit is adsl-210-201-198.ard.bellsouth.net which was the subject of the complaint i linked to.19:21

ompaulhow about 20:58
nickrudsomething very like: <PriceChild> white_eagle, now imagine if instead of being badly packaged to work with ubuntu... it was instead maliciously packaged and wiped all your documents, photos and music. Don't trust 3rd party repositories lightly.20:58
PriceChildnickrud, there's a thread on the forums, where someone who was put on trevhinio's sources.list decided to package something in ubuntu, and edited it to change their wallpaper to something like "don't trust 3rd party repos" and disabled sudo access... taught them a lesson.21:00
PriceChild(trevinhio's sources.list was basically his recommended list that everyone should copy)21:00
ompaul!3rdparty is <reply> third party applications are not in main for a reason, supposing instead of being badly packaged and not working exactly as intended they deleted your home directory, 21:00
ubotuI'll remember that, ompaul21:00

nickrudwhoa. I hope that person was banned everywhere21:01
SeveasPriceChild, that was ivoks :)21:01
PriceChildnickrud, which?21:01
SeveasPriceChild, he did not disable sudo though, just the wallpaper thing21:01
PriceChildThere was someone that disabled sudo I'm sure... wasn't as popular though perhaps.21:01
* PriceChild looks for the thread.21:02
nickrudPriceChild: ivoks? I remember a case in debian where some irc developer did something similar, so the packager got screwed. The package was dropped iirc21:02
leoggSeveas, PriceChild, thank you for your help :)21:02

ompaulnickrud, I can think of one exception 21:04

ompaulnickrud, if you are removing data before you kill off the box to do clean install or some such21:05

LjLalso, they didn't unban they people they muted, and that's a seriously worrying bug21:34
PriceChildSeveas, where from?21:35
PriceChildnevermind21:35
SeveasPriceChild, #ubuntu21:36
KibblesSeveas: could you re-think?21:36
PriceChildAh I saw that.21:36
Kibblesi thought a princeton hack of RSA and DES and AES was newsworthy21:36
PriceChildKibbles, they did not crack RSA and DES and AES.21:36
PriceChildKibbles, nor is #ubuntu for any news.21:36
SeveasKibbles, no. #ubuntu isn't a chatchannel and trying to stir up the channel by announcing that pretty much all encryption mechanisms have been cracked (which they have not been) is useless21:36
Kibblesdid you read the link?21:37
PriceChildKibbles, Yes I have actually. Have you?21:37
Kibblesyes21:37
PriceChildKibbles, please read it again, and rethink your wording.21:37
Kibblesi've been pouring over it for 2 days now.21:37
SeveasKibbles, then read up on chryptography. A cryptosystem isn't cracked if you manage to retrieve secret keys through completely different channels21:37
PriceChildKibbles, also /msg ubotu guidelines, and read those, paying special attention to the offtopic bits.21:38
Kibblesyeah yeah, but honestly i think you're over-reacting. off-topic is one thing. i left a link for ppl to read up on it - they can reach their own decisions21:38
ompaulofftopic is offtopic not one thing21:39
PriceChildKibbles, please re-read what I have said.21:39
ompaulwrong is aother21:39
ompaulanother that is21:39
Kibbleswhatever. thought i was doing a service21:39
* PriceChild headdesks21:40
ompaulehh I will read that 21:40
ompaullike this21:40
ompaul<Kibbles> whatever. thought i was doing a disservice21:40
ompaulKibbles, you were out of place, and wrong to boot21:40
ompaulKibbles, in case (A) you should not have even if it was true21:41
ompaul(B) it is not true21:41
Kibblessorry, i thought hacking into RSA keys in 25 minutes from a USB key was kind of a security flaw21:41
ompaulaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh21:41
ompaulyou are hurting my brain21:41
PriceChildKibbles, please read again. the keys may be recoverable because of a rubbish current implementation, but RSA has not been cracked.21:41
Kibblesperhaps i'm not as enlightened. i want to naively believe that encryption protects me and my data. 21:41
Kibblespricechild: that's not the way i read it.21:42
Kibblessorry.21:42
ompaulKibbles, you can have a 1024 bit key21:42
PriceChildKibbles, Please also understand #ubuntu is a ridiculously busy channel and is very strictly support only.21:42
LjLbots are back but they won't do anything to stop attacks or mute flooders21:42
mc44and everyone read the story on slashdot four days ago21:42
Kibblesprice - i didn't intend on making a scene. figured whoever was interested would look into it and make up their own mind21:42
SeveasKibbles, learn. to. read. What has been discovered is that memory retains content longer than we thought. No cryptosystem is cracked21:42
ompaulKibbles,  and you could have it generated by rot13 .. the fact that the tool was wrong 21:42
ompaulKibbles, has no impact on other things!21:43
PriceChildKibbles, if i lock my safe with the best lock around... then leave my key on my doorstep, then you pick up that key and unlock my safe... is the safe lock broken?21:43
Kibblesno - but it's compromised21:43
Kibblesand so for no more intelligent a reason than to warn people about not leaving their safe key on their front doorstep, it was a service21:44
Seveasanyway, this is all way offtopic in here as well21:44
PriceChildKibbles, so if used the same lock mechanism... but used a differently cut key/lock... it would be fine?21:44
Seveasanything else you want in here Kibbles? If not, please leave, this is not a channel for idling21:44
