[14:17] LjL: this RindTailedFox guy repeated the same thing in #k, #k-ot, and #u-ot [14:18] so he's asking for help [14:18] and #u [14:46] grub, is that as in the boot manager or the local for food in .ie [14:47] and then second up is there anything else we can help you wit?

[17:59] jpatrick, yes [18:00] nalioth, ubuntu/member cloak for leogg please. [18:07] nalioth, I'm just going through ubuntu-irc-cloaks and matching with ubuntumembers using a handy python snippet. Checking manually also, "robitaille", "lucasd", "meyer", The following is online and I've PMd to see if they are going to be renewing: "dous". Finally "naamanc" has also expired, but nolonger lists an irc nick so I've no idea what their username was on here after obvious tries have failed. [18:36] PriceChild, what do you think of this [18:36] !troll [18:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about troll - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [18:36] hmm [18:36] !trolling [18:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about trolling - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [18:36] !search troll [18:36] Found: troll*, a troll, don't feed the troll, nl-troll, feeding the troll, nl-troll in een internetomgeving, feedthetroll [18:36] a troll [18:37] arrrrr [18:37] :) [18:37] what's special about the nl-troll?

[18:41] i don't see clones [18:43] I can't see a clone flood, and from the users I checked it seemed to be muting users that had been connected a while [18:43] PriceChild, pm [18:44] LjL, are you around? [18:51] <_Oz_> Hello, all. [18:52] <_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. [18:53] <_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. [18:54] _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. [18:55] _Oz_, remind me what you actually did? [18:55] <_Oz_> A person came into the channel and changed his nick. [18:56] <_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. [18:57] <_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. [18:58] _Oz_, I last said to you -- Feb 16 23:55:31 now read the guidelines and drop into #ubuntu-ops when you are done cheers [18:58] did you? [18:58] <_Oz_> I did indeed. [18:59] now in fact the reason you made the channel scroll was? [18:59] <_Oz_> Getting offtpic. [18:59] In ubotu, sinbox said: !pizza is An oven baked circle of dough topped with tomato sauce and whichever favourite toppings you like [19:00] _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] no actually being a pain [19:01] really you were told you were offtopic [19:01] you 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] _Oz_, you forgot that? What I just said kind of goes against what you thought happenned? "ompaul wouldn't let it drop" [19:01] that is exactly how you endear yourself to other [19:02] s [19:02] <_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] _Oz_, have you read the ubuntu guidelines? [19:02] <_Oz_> They are sitting on my screen right now! [19:03] Don't be annoying [19:03] * [19:03] 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] ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh [19:04] you were warned off and told you were offtopic [19:04] it does not matter who tells you [19:04] you need to respect all those around you - and they will more than likely do likewise [19:04] <_Oz_> I stand ready to be flagellated further. [19:04] no you don't [19:04] we are not beating you u [19:04] up [19:04] I've just noticed that jrib was caught with the mutes. I am removing all of those now. [19:05] <_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] why did you get banned from -offtopic? [19:05] <_Oz_> I don't know what else to say other than that. [19:05] !o4o [19:05] <_Oz_> I'm not banned? [19:05] <_Oz_> I'm in there right now. [19:05] * ompaul read it as such [19:05] hrmph [19:06] Some 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] _Oz_, "I was not aware that ompaul was an op" - why should that have any bearing on the situation? [19:07] you got removed from there [19:07] <_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. [19:08] _Oz_, We are *all* just other users. [19:08] <_Oz_> I understand. [19:08] _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] however 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 likewise [19:09] <_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] _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 [19:10] <_Oz_> OK. [19:10] _Oz_, I would like to suggest you are a little more sparing with the bot in future. [19:11] _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] brb - give me two or three mins [19:11] <_Oz_> What does that mean? [19:12] _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. [19:14] _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. [19:15] _Oz_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=702990 [19:15] _Oz_, I'm not saying don't use these factoids, I'm just suggesting you are more careful. [19:16] _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. [19:17] _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. [19:18] <_Oz_> I will admit to what I've done wrong, and have done so, but I never said those things. [19:18] _Oz_, see the thing is we are all involved in various aspects of the Ubuntu project [19:18] anyway - give me a moment [19:18] <_Oz_> It's an awesome project. [19:18] Its irrelevant. [19:18] _Oz_, we would like to let you back into #ubuntu, but please listen to my suggestions above. [19:19] <_Oz_> I have heard them and I will abide by them, Pricechild. [19:19] Good to hear. [19:20] _Oz_, the door is open [19:20] please part this channel [19:20] <_Oz_> Thank you all. [19:20] My logs show someone using that nickname this past month on two hostnames. [19:21] that one, and adsl-210-201-198.ard.bellsouth.net [19:21] it is adsl-210-201-198.ard.bellsouth.net which was the subject of the complaint i linked to. [19:24] my logs show him as accessing using rr.com, swapping for a few days then coming back as the original one with no swapping in between if I'm not mistaken so I'd be willing to bet it was him. [19:27] PriceChild, i think he may have gotten a fright there [19:27] ;-) [19:28] !ops [19:28] Help! Channel emergency!

[19:33] I think we should -m [19:33] with +i they can't join [19:33] first someone needs to explain why +im was dropped [19:34] the floodbots... odd [19:34] floodbot should NOT mess with modes ops set [19:34] indeed [19:34] at least one got lagged off... [19:35] LjL, please fix this [19:35] this caused the attack to do far more damage [19:35] Could we please -m ? Think we need to kick the floodbots? [19:35] if the attack happens again, first thing to do is kick them [19:36] ok [19:39] wtf were they just doing then? [19:39] no idea, but I don't like it [19:39] hmm -monitor shows them as on "emergency mode" still [19:40] often two of them do the same [19:40] i guess 1 was reset when it excess flooded [19:40] if they're still in emergency mode, shouldn't we kick them? [19:40] no that's what they're meant to be in [19:40] floodbot1 must not have known what was going on when it rejoined... and tried to undo emergency things [19:41] causing 2 and 3 to throw their toys out the pram and reset them [19:41] note the convo in -ot [19:41] but what do i know [19:41] there we go again [19:44] bots are going crazy [19:44] * tomaw would kick them rather than the people complaining about them...

[19:50] it meant it [19:51] ompaul, we need to do those ourselves now [19:51] someone should watch -monitor and remove bans when they are cleared [19:52] PriceChild, I just copped that and removed the ban [19:52] daedalus2, your ban is removed [19:52] please part from here [19:54] CorruptTerrorist: Sorry, but I am unable to test you (are you using your usual nickname?).

[19:56] yep, very "special" indeed [19:59] frold has been removed from the exploit quarantine [19:59] erm [19:59] you should mind the exploit victims [20:02] someone suggested that we explain +m in the topic of the channel ... your call [20:03] what? [20:03] I don't see the point personally, +m isn't set that often [20:03] absurd idea [20:03] just give them !modes if they ask [20:07] Hello! ppl click here to make my city grow plz! http://xzen.myminicity.com/ [20:07] !staff [20:07] Hey nalioth, jenda, rob, SportChick, seanw, Dave2, Christel or Gary, I could use a bit of your time :) [20:07] what happened at 18:37 was *much* worse than what happened during the 19:30 attack... [20:08] Seveas: gone [20:11] grazie [20:15] ir arnducky apologizes in a sec, unban please [20:15] if* [20:16] told him to come in here, he's not malicious just one stupid action [20:18] Um, hello. I got myself banned by mass-pinging a channel... =oC [20:18] arnducky, can we help you [20:18] ehh was that clever? [20:18] uh, no, not clever [20:19] guess you won't do it again? [20:19] nope [20:19] k [20:19] ban lifted [20:19] please /part this channel [20:19] sorry, I just wanted to see if other users were affected by that DoS attack or just my host [20:20] thanks bye [20:20] I told him it'd be a week, but he's very reasonable [20:20] no need for punishment [20:20] thanks ompaul :) [20:21] Seveas, np [20:21] nalioth, ? [20:32] The automated testing for the fix of the DCC exploit hasn't worked. I typed in test me and it sent me a malformed packet, but I don't know if it passed me or not [20:33] just wait a while [20:33] ah, ok [20:34] CoasterMaster, you pass, but you also had another ban on you... let me just check why that was. [20:35] !bootchart [20:35] bootchart charts your machine at boot time, to install >> sudo apt-get install bootchart << the graphic is in /var/log/bootchart after the next reboot [20:35] PriceChild, ok [20:35] my mistake [20:36] CoasterMaster, you've cropped up in #ubuntu-read-topic a couple of times. Please make sure your settings are saved :) [20:36] You may rejoin #ubuntu. [20:37] PriceChild, yeah, I reformat every once in a while and I always forget to change the setting back :( [20:37] but thanks [20:38] PriceChild: hopefully the new default settings on Hardy will help [20:38] jdong, yup... xchat's been fixed but no-one's picked up xchat-gnome afaik :( [20:39] jdong, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat/+bug/191691 [20:39] Launchpad bug 191691 in xchat-gnome "To prevent dcc exploit, default port should be 8001 for irc.ubuntu.com" [Medium,Confirmed] [20:39] PriceChild: interesting [20:39] PriceChild: that's in main isn't it? [20:40] well I'm afraid I'm powerless to fix it [20:41] actually.... [20:41] !info xchat-gnome [20:41] xchat-gnome (source: xchat-gnome): a new frontend to the popular X-Chat IRC client. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.18-0ubuntu3 (gutsy), package size 313 kB, installed size 816 kB [20:41] I wonder why they uploaded one fix but not the other... especially when both were provided. [20:45] ah because xchat is in universe [20:46] !xchat [20:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about xchat - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [20:46] !info xchat [20:46] xchat (source: xchat): IRC client for X similar to AmIRC.

[20:48] sure [20:48] Dave2, leoquant wants an ubuntu/member/leoquant cloak [20:48] my mind warps [20:48] I've verified that he has a linked nick and email set [20:49] (he gave me his pass to do the setup for his nick ;)) [20:49] Seveas, one for leogg too please? [20:49] Dave2, if you don't mind, leogg wants one as well apparently [20:49] PriceChild, ompaul: have you checked that one? [20:49] Seveas, yes. [20:49] k [20:49] Seveas, https://edge.launchpad.net/~leogomez72 [20:50] Seveas, I watched PriceChild check it [20:50] * ompaul watches lots [20:50] both done [20:50] Seveas, he decided to email the council ML to request it... despite that email not appearing on the "how to get an ubuntu/member" document anywhere... [20:51] Dave2, I don't see a cloak on leoquant [20:51] Seveas, he ain't online but he has one [20:51] yeah, not online. [20:51] Dave2, ah nvm, he changed nick, identification dropped [20:52] well if they don't do the password they don't carry the cloak [20:52] where is pici the master of factoids [20:52] ohh well [20:53] Dave2, after telling nickserv who he is, leoquant is cloaked, thanks :) [20:53] Seveas, that is always a good thing :) [20:53] no problem [20:55] change the topic in -r-t [20:55] the "test me" is hardly going to work now [20:57] LjL, can't the bots be restarted to make them in a less chaotic state? [20:58] Is there any factoid for "3rd party repositories kill everyone you've ever loved"? [20:58] and more [20:58] !automatix [20:58] automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe » [20:58] how about [20:58] something very like: 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. [21:00] nickrud, 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] (trevinhio's sources.list was basically his recommended list that everyone should copy) [21:00] !3rdparty is 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] I'll remember that, ompaul [21:00] PriceChild, add that http the end of that [21:01] whoa. I hope that person was banned everywhere [21:01] PriceChild, that was ivoks :) [21:01] nickrud, which? [21:01] PriceChild, he did not disable sudo though, just the wallpaper thing [21:01] There was someone that disabled sudo I'm sure... wasn't as popular though perhaps. [21:02] * PriceChild looks for the thread. [21:02] PriceChild: ivoks? I remember a case in debian where some irc developer did something similar, so the packager got screwed. The package was dropped iirc [21:02] Seveas, PriceChild, thank you for your help :) [21:04] * nickrud doesn't think screwing someones machine on purpose is ever funny [21:04] nickrud, I can think of one exception [21:04] ompaul: heh. never say never, that's true. What exception? [21:05] nickrud, if you are removing data before you kill off the box to do clean install or some such [21:05] the one we're talking about is an exception [21:05] I'd do the same if I had found out sooner that trevino had included me [21:05] but I'd hide it better [21:06] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297814 [21:08] http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1746779&postcount=15 [21:08] hehe and they couldn't change the wallpaper [21:08] hahaha [21:08] evil totally evil [21:09] but bad also [21:09] and windows mindset aside adding repos to do this to your machine [21:09] the full story is needed [21:09] !no 3rdparty is 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, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297814 [21:09] I'll remember that ompaul [21:10] ompaul: it shouldn't be main, but ubuntu [21:11] okay [21:11] one second... [21:11] rewording [21:11] !no 3rdparty is third party applications are not in Ubuntu for a reason, supposing instead of being badly packaged and not working exactly as intended they deleted your home directory, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297814 [21:11] !3rdparty =~ s/main/ubuntu/ [21:11] I'll remember that ompaul [21:11] Nothing changed there [21:12] what I don't want is someone linking that to automatix and envy by all means link them to it [21:12] 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.org/showthread.php?t=297814 for consequences. [21:12] ah, very nice [21:12] okay [21:12] PriceChild, +10 [21:13] done [21:17] good morning, i've been send here. I'm not sure wether the automated test succeeded or not since no reply to that has been given [21:18] hischild, ah sorry, one moment. [21:18] please part here hischild [21:18] PriceChild, done [21:18] done [21:29] Hey Ximal, how can I help? [21:29] Umm how do u file a complaint against an op for kicking u for no reason ? [21:29] Because if u look my question in Off Topic didn't include warez.. [21:30] Ximal, one moment please. [21:30] I was going to see if anyone in there wanted to do a link on multiplayer is all.. [21:30] And ok... [21:30] Ximal, fair enough, sorry then [21:30] most people asking for software want warez [21:30] Ximal, in future, its always best to PM the operator for simple misunderstandings :) [21:31] fair enough... Just wanted to make sure he knew... and wouldn't auto kick me upon re-entry [21:32] Seveas, not right now, because 1) i'm watching tv, 2) it's not just a matter of the -i, look what they did one hour before, that's far worse [21:32] :) [21:32] LjL, ok [21:34] unfortunately the paste protection is bound to do pretty awful things when the bot lags [21:34] incoming troll [21:34] they don't mute people when they're in emergency mode now, but they can still realize they're lagged too late [21:34] also, they didn't unban they people they muted, and that's a seriously worrying bug [21:35] Seveas, where from? [21:35] nevermind [21:36] PriceChild, #ubuntu [21:36] Seveas: could you re-think? [21:36] Ah I saw that. [21:36] i thought a princeton hack of RSA and DES and AES was newsworthy [21:36] Kibbles, they did not crack RSA and DES and AES. [21:36] Kibbles, nor is #ubuntu for any news. [21:36] Kibbles, 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 useless [21:37] did you read the link? [21:37] Kibbles, Yes I have actually. Have you? [21:37] yes [21:37] Kibbles, please read it again, and rethink your wording. [21:37] i've been pouring over it for 2 days now. [21:37] Kibbles, then read up on chryptography. A cryptosystem isn't cracked if you manage to retrieve secret keys through completely different channels [21:38] Kibbles, also /msg ubotu guidelines, and read those, paying special attention to the offtopic bits. [21:38] yeah 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 decisions [21:39] offtopic is offtopic not one thing [21:39] Kibbles, please re-read what I have said. [21:39] wrong is aother [21:39] another that is [21:39] whatever. thought i was doing a service [21:40] * PriceChild headdesks [21:40] ehh I will read that [21:40] like this [21:40] whatever. thought i was doing a disservice [21:40] Kibbles, you were out of place, and wrong to boot [21:41] Kibbles, in case (A) you should not have even if it was true [21:41] (B) it is not true [21:41] sorry, i thought hacking into RSA keys in 25 minutes from a USB key was kind of a security flaw [21:41] aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh [21:41] you are hurting my brain [21:41] Kibbles, please read again. the keys may be recoverable because of a rubbish current implementation, but RSA has not been cracked. [21:41] perhaps i'm not as enlightened. i want to naively believe that encryption protects me and my data. [21:42] pricechild: that's not the way i read it. [21:42] sorry. [21:42] Kibbles, you can have a 1024 bit key [21:42] Kibbles, Please also understand #ubuntu is a ridiculously busy channel and is very strictly support only. [21:42] bots are back but they won't do anything to stop attacks or mute flooders [21:42] and everyone read the story on slashdot four days ago [21:42] price - i didn't intend on making a scene. figured whoever was interested would look into it and make up their own mind [21:42] Kibbles, learn. to. read. What has been discovered is that memory retains content longer than we thought. No cryptosystem is cracked [21:42] Kibbles, and you could have it generated by rot13 .. the fact that the tool was wrong [21:43] Kibbles, has no impact on other things! [21:43] Kibbles, 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] no - but it's compromised [21:44] and so for no more intelligent a reason than to warn people about not leaving their safe key on their front doorstep, it was a service [21:44] anyway, this is all way offtopic in here as well [21:44] Kibbles, so if used the same lock mechanism... but used a differently cut key/lock... it would be fine? [21:44] anything else you want in here Kibbles? If not, please leave, this is not a channel for idling [21:45] !guidelines > Kibbles [21:45] !offtopic > Kibbles [21:45] sheesh you're harsh. all of you. thanks for the supposed reeducation, but i think you're censoring [21:45] censoring sheesh... [21:45] hehehehehe [21:45] stopping the rot [21:45] stock troll reply #472: we're censoring [21:45] Seveas, you nazi. [21:46] PriceChild, fascist [21:46] ... :-/ [21:46] stock op defence: ban [21:46] PriceChild, you don't say? [21:46] Kibbles, get out now [21:46] Kibbles, correct. The other one is kick [21:46] you got 10 seconds [21:46] my pleasure [21:46] lol or what? [21:47] you get banned here but that must have just occurred to you [21:47] "i didn't intend on making a scene" " a reason than to warn people about not leaving their safe key on their front doorstep" < yeah, that makes sense [21:47] wth is going on here????? o.O [21:47] !ohmy > jussi01 (:O) [21:47] insert a "'s not" after "that" [21:47] jussi01, we had a class C troll [21:47] ahhh [21:48] I walk in and see [02/24/08 23:43:53] <+PriceChild> Seveas, you nazi. [21:48] I'd say class D [21:48] clueless, not necessarily harmful [21:48] jussi01, heh :) [21:48] Seveas, he had the lip of a C [21:48] * jussi01 lols at the reponse from ubotwo... [21:49] same class as the "Oh noes!!!!11 there's a bug in the Kernel!!11!1" ones [21:49] [02/24/08 23:45:41] How should I know? [21:49] stdin, have you got hardware X cos it does not work with ubuntu class [21:52] cos is a C function, I only use std::cos :) [21:53] stdin, at your perl you do stuff like that [21:53] * ompaul growns [21:53] sorry folks stdin made me do it [21:53] nah, gcc 4.3 has better template functions than 4.2 [22:41] Seveas, still around? [22:41] sort of [22:42] Seveas, could you request a cloak removal on dous? membership expired and he won't be renewing. [22:42] wjhere is ubotu [22:43] ompaul, rejoining [22:43] ahh thanks [22:43] !staff | see above [22:43] err, of course we need ubotu for that [22:44] hah [22:44] Dave2, could you take care of PriceChild's request?
