=== gnomefre4k is now known as gnomefreak
LjL-Tempi think #ubuntu+1 should forward to #ubuntu-release-party01:28
gnomefreakif its gonna stay open sure or they will be forwarded 2 times01:30
gnomefreakgoing to #ubuntu01:30
=== gnomefre2k is now known as gnomefreak
LjL-Tempwell of course when -release-party is closed the forward would be changed back to #ubuntu01:35
LjL-Tempbut people now are complaining (as they do on each release) about +1 not existing anymore01:35
LjL-Tempand you can't blame them, being throwing into the mess that #ubuntu currently is like this01:36
nalioththose people can certainly take 2 weeks off01:37

mneptokwhy is that channel still open?02:34
nickruddang, the 24th isn't even over02:35
bod_hey guys,. ive been talking to the ubuntu forums beginners team and realised that its not very well known about on irc -- i was wondering if we could get a factoid like !beginners -- If your new to ubuntu theres a team of dedicated helpers to ensure that your transition is as smooth as possible ##beginners-help     --     what do you think?02:35
mneptokit is for the majority of the world02:35
Tm_Tbecause we have release parties going on all over the world still in few next days02:35
mneptokTm_T: that channel is hardly a coordination point02:36
* nickrud thinks mneptok it becoming a crotchety old man before his time02:36
mneptoknickrud: cool, so you'll moderate that channel for the next few days?02:36
Tm_Tmneptok: I know ;)02:36
mneptoknickrud: oh, that's right, you're not even /join'ed to it02:37
nickrudmneptok is it that crazy? I was never offered mod there, so I never spent time there02:37
ubotuIn #ubuntu, JoshBP said: !upgrade is slow02:38
mneptoknickrud: we can add you to the op list if it's important to you to keep the channel open.02:38
nickrudmneptok oh, a sarcastic one too :) Sure, I'll stick around there for a day or so02:39
nickrudmneptok better to keep the joy there rather than #ubuntu02:39
ubotuIn ubotu, JoshBP said: cheese is a delicous dairy product02:40
mneptoktonyyarusso: please add nickrud to the -r-p access list?02:43
bod_is ubotu open source?02:48
LjL-Tempkonversation literally isn't keeping up with the scrolling in #ubuntu, for christ's sake why should -r-p be closed strictly within 24 hours? it's not like *very* much op attention is being given to #ubuntu either so02:48

Hobbseeor her.05:41
stdinjust my opinion, but I think emma has had more than enough chances by now05:42
Hobbseestdin: if you could get the -uk ops to agree...05:42
Hobbseestdin: she was banned last night.  someone's gone and removed it05:42
Hobbseeoh dear.  emma spamming me.05:43
* stdin pokes Amaranth 05:43
AmaranthI banned her for PMing people we ban05:44

AmaranthRight, but what does that have to do with launchpad beta testers?05:47
AmaranthDo you get harassed on launchpad too?05:48
HobbseeAmaranth: yes.05:48
elkbuntuAmaranth, fujisan stalked hobbsee and found out info about her from launchpad05:48
Amaranththey would have found that anyway05:48
Amaranthyou don't have to be on the beta testers team05:48
Hobbseeit may have been from the real name on irc, but yeah.05:48

mojohi11:13
Seeker`hi, how can we help?11:14
mojoMyrtti::  sorry, don't even know how long i was lurking idle... i am ready to fall asleep11:14
mojoSeeker`::  Myrtti ::  I was here earlier giving suggestions I had for updating ubotu database11:15
mojoplease add !fastrepos is To select your fastest local repo, select System > Administration > Software Sources and choose "Other..." in the Download From: combo box.  Select your country from the list and click the Select Best Server to speed-test them all and automatically pick the fastest one for you.11:15
mojoALSO:  Please append the following to !slow "  To select a faster (local) repository see !fastrepos"  THANKS!11:15
Seeker`!repomirror11:16
ubotuGo to "System",  "Administration", and "Software Sources" and choose "Other" from the drop down box. Then choose "select best server" and your system will choose the closest mirror to you automatically.11:16
Seeker`is that not sufficient?11:16
Myrtticlosest isn't always fastest11:16
Myrttibtw11:16
Myrttiso perhaps s/closest/fastest/11:17
mojookay so !fastrepos would be an alias of !repomirror.  Still might be good to reference in !slow, since it was quoted a lot w/regard to the stampede11:17
Seeker`I dont see the point of a factoid that says 11:17
Seeker`"see !other-factoid"11:17
Seeker`you may as well just use the other factoid in the first place, otherwise you just get a lot of botspam11:18
mojoMyrtti::  true, closest not == fastest.  I put the country select in there because it takes a while to test them all, and some folks would be waiting on that dialong a long time.  Restricting to country seemed reasonable as a suggestion11:18
mojoMyrtti::  Just thought !slow could use something better than "be patient with APT" or whatever.  Some offered recourse would benefit some11:19
mojoMyrtti::  but it's no holy war for the one true ubotu answer, :p , just trying to be helpful11:20
ikoniamaybe look at !dumb11:20
ikonia!dumb11:20
ubotuThe only dumb or stupid question is the one not asked. Please do not tell people off for asking something, just because it seems simple or obvious -- we discourage this attitude in all our channels.11:20

mojoMyrtti::  i am _so_ beyond coffee.  I'm typing at like 1/4 natural pace, lol.  I'm gonna call it quits for the night.  i'm in tzone -6, 2am is coming around the horizon soon (or I'm sliding toward it)...11:24

MyrttiI get the odd feeling that Piero_Scaruffi and Fujisan are the same person11:41
Seeker`Myrtti: Any particular reason?11:42
Myrttithe fact that after Fujisan left, Piero was the first to test the factoid11:42
Myrttiand now that amaranth mentioned fsf after Fujisan left, now Piero asks what's fsf11:43
MyrttiI know it's far fetched11:43
Myrttibut I got the feeling before Piero asked what's fsf11:43
ikoniathe ammount of people playing games with ubuntu channels at the moment is beyond belief11:43
Myrttijust didn't say anything11:43
MyrttiI've seen Piero say something very seldom11:44
Myrttinow out of the blue he becomes vocal11:44

Myrttiit doesn't reallyl matter since they're not evading any bans, are they11:47
Myrttijust a strange speculation11:47
Myrttiand a note11:47
AmaranthI think the unaffiliated cloak should have something in it that uniquely identifies your IP11:47

gnomefreakwhat no need to see CC during a membership renewal?13:07
Hobbseegnomefreak: nope13:07
gnomefreakcool i thought i had to thanks 13:08
* Hobbsee waves to Amaranth13:27
Amaranthhey13:27
HobbseeAmaranth: how's it going?  has the guy stopped harassing you yet?13:28
Amaranthorochi_? yeah, that ended yesterday13:28
* Hobbsee spoke to jorge about it - glad to see we're all on the same page, at least w.r.t. him13:28
Hobbseeoh good13:28
AmaranthYou guys are weird, I don't get stalkers13:29
Hobbseelucky13:29
AmaranthWell, I'm thinking emma might count at this point...13:29
HobbseeAmaranth: she's stalking all of us, though.13:29
* wgrant creeps around quietly.13:29
HobbseeAmaranth: those who actually did the banning, in particular.13:29
* Amaranth throws a net on wgrant13:29
wgrantDamn.13:29
Hobbseehaha13:29
* Hobbsee sends wgrant off to china, for a holiday.13:30
Hobbsee(why china?  sounded like an interesting place.  interesting to try to connect to irc, too)13:30
wgrantNo thanks, I already choked there once.13:30
Hobbseeouch13:30
wgrantXi'an's air is seriously bad.13:30
HobbseeAmaranth: what are your thoughts on what we should start doing, as an op team, for those who appear to be somewhat insane?13:32
HobbseeIn particular, those who refuse to listen to reason, etc.  Like some of the stalkers yesterday.13:32
AmaranthCan your IRC client ignore PMs from certain people?13:33
Hobbseeyes13:33
AmaranthSounds like a plan to me13:33
MyrttiAmaranth: ignore is too powerful tool for ops to use13:33
Hobbseebut they're still damaging ubuntu channels by turning people against us, etc.13:33
AmaranthAnd just ban them from any channel they try to do it in13:33
MyrttiFCOL the damn Fujisan is at -ot AGAIN13:34
HobbseeIt appears that they'll just believe what they like, and call it a power abuse, though.13:34
AmaranthThere is no right answer13:34
HobbseeAmaranth: it effectively means that the CC gets pulled in, for each time that someone who doesn't listen to reason, and/or doesn't agree with the state of events.13:35
HobbseeMyrtti: has he learned?13:35
AmaranthSo the best answer is the one that causes us the least stress, I'd say13:35
Myrttientered and hit !vista13:35
Myrttithe first thing he did13:35
AmaranthWhich is to just ignore them and make sure they can't disrupt any of the channels.13:36
AmaranthThey can go seethe in their own channel, that's fine13:36
HobbseeAmaranth: what about long term?13:36
AmaranthI think that's the first time I've ever used the word seethe in writing13:36
AmaranthThere is no long term solution13:37
AmaranthThey'll get bored before us13:37
Hobbseeobviously, those who refuse to listen to reason will not agree with the events, and so will expect them to be overturned.13:37
HobbseeWe hope, anyway.13:37
AmaranthWell, we've already been around longer than them, proves we have staying power :)13:37
Hobbseeguess it's not hard to just keep enforcing the restrictions placed on them, as they spread out.13:38
AmaranthWorst case they all go sit in their own little channel and complain about us13:38
AmaranthBut that's already the case so...13:38
HobbseeAmaranth: or keep hitting our channels13:38
AmaranthWell, we can stop that13:38
AmaranthThese aren't people with botnets, just life-long trolls13:39
HobbseeTrue13:39
HobbseeMyrtti: leave him alone.  he can choose to harass me again if he likes, in which case i'll go to freenode again, and tell them that their catalysing clearly didn't work the first time.13:52
HobbseeMyrtti: no point him getting both of us13:52
HobbseeMyrtti: in terms of kickign him out, anyway13:52
MyrttiI kicked him from -r-p yesterday13:52
Myrttiso it's no use anyway13:52
HobbseeMyrtti: oh, you as well?13:53
HobbseeMyrtti: bans tend to gte more of a response.13:53
Hobbseewow, #ubuntu is getting small.13:53
MyrttiAHHAHHAHHA!13:54
AmaranthOk, now I'm sure they're the same person13:54
HobbseeAmaranth: who and who?13:54
MyrttiPiero whatever and Fujisan13:55
Amaranthfujisan and piero13:55
Hobbseeahhhh13:55
Myrtti/me does a victory wiggle13:56
Amaranthrandom: what does "re" mean?13:57
Hobbseereturned13:57
Myrttiin what context13:57
Amaranthwhat Hobbsee said :)13:57
Amaranththey always say that in #ubuntu-desktop, never did figure it out13:57
elkbuntuit can also mean 're-hi'14:04
Hobbseeelkbuntu: btw, should emma be unbanned?  now that it's not release day....14:20
* Hobbsee still has little confidence that she'll bring anything convincing and new, but should at least give her the chance.14:20
Hobbseeit would stop her privmsg'ing some of the less active ops in here, which might be nice.14:21
Hobbseethen again, she's still putting in her lies, so....14:23
Hobbseeeg: < emma> I was just banned without warning or the first word of why.14:23
Hobbseewhich is wrong on 2 counts.14:24
* Hobbsee lets it be, then.14:24
