[00:30] <epimeth> hello guys... who wants to unset my forwarding to ##fix_your_connection ?
[00:32] <nalioth> whre were you forwarded from, epimeth ?
[00:33] <nalioth> and is your connection problem fixed?
[00:33] <epimeth> #kubuntu and #kubuntu-ot
[00:33] <epimeth> it only happens when I'm not home, so I don't know!
[00:33] <epimeth> when I'm active, I'm on
[00:33] <epimeth> then I get home and there are messages from people telling me I keep disconnected and reconnected
[00:34] <nalioth> right.
[00:34] <nalioth> you're good to go ( and maybe consider a remote host or a bnc for when you're not home )
[00:34] <Pici> Perhaps you should just part the channels you're in when you arent home, that way you can still get messages, just not disrupt channels
[00:35] <epimeth> while that is true, I don't always remember to do so :-)
[00:35] <epimeth> whats a bnc?
[00:35] <nalioth> a bouncer
[00:36] <epimeth> hmm
[00:37] <epimeth> meh... I'll just try and remember to quit
[00:37] <epimeth> I don't have a host I can install a bnc onto
[00:40] <epimeth> I'll write a script that pings my gateway, dns, and freenode.  maybe I'll catch the problem and compain to time warner :-)
[00:40] <epimeth> anyway, nalioth, cheers!
[00:44] <nalioth> don't waste your time complaining to TW/comcast
[00:44] <nalioth> have a nice day  :)
[00:46] <epimeth> :-)
[01:04] <Pici> epimeth: Is there anything else we can help you with?
[01:14] <bazhang> epimeth, how may we assist you
[01:15]  * Pici clears out -unregged
[01:26] <nalioth> epimeth: please see the /topic
[01:32]  * Myrtti whistles
[01:34] <bazhang>  sgallinger is now known as fukkass family-friendly?
[01:34] <Pici> not very
[03:12]  * Hobbsee beats freenode around the head with a dead fish
[03:12] <Hobbsee> if you're going to disconnect great portions of the network, PLEASE actually add all usermodes back in that people had before.
[04:17] <eboyjr> Is there a bot for an "I'm feeling lucky" search?
[04:17] <eboyjr> -Thats google
[04:18] <nalioth> do you feel lucky?
[04:18] <eboyjr> I do. :D
[04:21] <eboyjr> So, I guess no... :(
[04:22] <eboyjr> nalioth:: Thank you for your help.
[07:25] <jussi01> right... [09:23:38] <flaccid> _2: i don't make the rules, i just enforce them. you act like many things, but i aint calling you by them because of the rules and CoC.
[07:28] <jussi01> Someone needs to remind flaccid he isnt an op.
[07:28] <stdin> well, _2 can get a little, umm, stroppy when he thinks he's "in the right"
[07:28] <jussi01> yeah, but still.
[07:29] <stdin> I know, neither are exactly innocent in that
[07:30] <jussi01> stdin: exactly what I was getting at.
[07:30]  * Hobbsee sighs at people.
[07:31]  * jussi01 hugs Hobbsee
[08:16]  * Myrtti yawns at people
[08:36]  * Tm_T hugs Mez 
[08:36]  * Tm_T hugs Myrtti too ;)
[08:37] <Myrtti> what did I do now? :-O
[08:37] <Tm_T> just being you
[08:40]  * Myrtti wonders still
[09:41] <jpds> grr
[09:42]  * Myrtti noms grapes
[10:04] <Hobbsee> nekostar....why does that seem familiar
[10:04] <Hobbsee> @btlogin
[10:06] <Hobbsee> man, i hate not having past history for the bantracker
[10:08] <jpds> -> someone_1 [n=chatzill@nat/ibm/x-614f68137cd29f42] has joined #ubuntu followed by massive paste.
[10:14] <gnomefreak> when the hell did we do support in #ubuntu-devel?
[10:15] <jpds> We don't
[10:15] <gnomefreak> Hobbsee: i know the nick just cant remember if he was the exploiter
[10:15] <gnomefreak> jpds: have you looked in there?
[10:15] <Hobbsee> we don't.
[10:15] <jpds> gnomefreak: Yes, I am watching.
[10:15] <gnomefreak> me too and it looks alot like hardy support
[10:16] <gnomefreak> he cant get remote desktop to work
[10:24] <ikonia> gnomefreak: isn't that cloack an IBM as in "big blue" cloak ?
[10:25] <gnomefreak> huh sorry still sleepy what do you mean IBM cloak?
[10:25] <ikonia> chatzill@nat/ibm/x-614f68137cd29f42
[10:26] <gnomefreak> not really sure, but x-..... reminds me of tor
[10:26] <gnomefreak> they way freenode does tor now atleast
[10:26] <ikonia> I wondered if nat@ibm was a known nat address from ibm's network
[10:26] <gnomefreak> the ibm part not sure
[10:27] <ikonia> maybe just a unfortuanate naming policy for a non ibm
[10:27] <gnomefreak> is nat nat or nathanel
[10:27] <gnomefreak> nat as in a set of connected pcs
[10:27] <ikonia> ahh I was thinking "net address trans, ibm network"
[10:27]  * gnomefreak not really sure wher eis he?
[10:27] <ikonia> as in companies have small ranges assigned for things like irc
[10:29] <jpds> ikonia: I think it's just the cloak that gets applied to people using the IBM gateway.
[10:29] <ikonia> jpds: as in IBM - big blue
[10:29] <jpds> Yeah.
[10:30] <ikonia> what is the requirments to use that gateway
[10:30] <ikonia> eg: do they have to be on IBM's network ?
[10:30] <jpds> Connect from behind it I guess.
[10:30] <ikonia> so basiclly that guy who flooded was an IBM employee
[10:31] <jpds> Possibly, that's why I pointed it out.
[10:32] <ikonia> oh, he's still in there
[11:01] <dmseg_> Please inform me when pricechild is online (when is he online?)
[11:03] <Hobbsee> PriceChild: is online, he's just not at his keyboard.
[11:03] <jpds> dmseg_: /whois will show if he's away or not.
[11:04] <dmseg_> well you have pinged him he will respond
[11:06] <jussi01> dmseg_: is there something that any of us could assist you with?or is it specifically PriceChild you need?
[11:08] <dmseg_> jussi01: i had sent a request to join the ops team he said we wnated to talk to me to just sort it out and get more familiar
[11:14] <Myrtti> @btlogin
[11:15] <dmseg> Myrtti: why you keep doing that!
[11:16] <jpds> dmseg: To access the ban tracker?
[11:17] <dmseg> jpds: whats wrong whith a normal ban list?
[11:17] <jpds> dmseg: it's huge?
[11:17] <Hobbsee> dmseg: it's the little black book
[11:17] <Hobbsee> and it shows context
[11:17] <dmseg> i see an alias for an list or a ban manager script works well
[11:22] <dmseg> hobsee: why not use a ban manager
[11:23]  * Myrtti rolls her eyes
[11:26] <dmseg> pricechild: i hav to go sorry will talk later thankx bye
[11:26] <jussi01> right...
[11:26] <jussi01> who was that? Ive never seen him before
[11:30] <ikonia> was he the guy from the other network that ran a linux channel for years, now it's closed down
[11:30] <ikonia> if it's him he's been in a few times
[11:30] <ikonia> there was some catch like he said he'd been here for years but his nick was registered for like a month
[11:30] <ikonia> something like that
[11:30] <ikonia> is that him ?
[11:34] <elkbuntu> ikonia, i think so
[11:34] <elkbuntu> my brain has filed him into the 'used ubuntu for 10 years' category for some reason, so it could have been the case
[11:35] <jussi01> yet he doesnt even use tab completion?
[11:37] <ikonia> the guy who I am talking about wasn't very linux aware, there was a conversation in here about it, someone who was in a linux channel for $X years
[11:37] <ikonia> if you remember we all started comparing how long our nicks had been registered
[13:10] <Hobbsee> impressive split.  welcome back everyone!
[13:12] <jussi01> Hobbsee: meh, you were the one who left.... and it wasnt impressive here :P
[13:12] <jussi01> only 4 of you left :D
[13:12] <Hobbsee> we dropped to 98 users in #ubuntu
[13:13] <Myrtti> you did
[13:17] <bazhang> heh
[13:19] <PriceChild> I declined a load of people last night who didn't have nicks listed on launchpad, or who weren't ops anywhere. My message to contact me on irc was to discuss it further if they wanted.
[13:19] <bazhang> he was the I've been on irc two years guy?
[13:20] <bazhang> when he was only on two weeks :)
[15:03] <bazhang> limcore
[15:04] <bazhang> LimCore> Im interested in starting on open source project for ubuntu - STFU, a suit of settings to quickly mute system messages (audio and others). Or is there another project like this already in ubuntu?
[15:07] <PriceChild> system > preferences > sound ?
[15:07] <bazhang> haha
[15:07] <bazhang> his name for the project leaves something to be desired does it not?
[15:08] <bazhang> dm1 in #u
[15:12] <PriceChild> I've had ubuntu unable to use nics as windows didn't turn them off properly at shutdown, but not the other way around.
[15:12] <Myrtti> yup
[15:13] <Myrtti> had that same too myself
[15:13] <bazhang> he's blaming ubuntu.
[15:13] <bazhang> likely something he did on windows
[15:40] <PriceChild> bazhang: dm1 is still here?
[15:41] <bazhang> PriceChild, he is wanting to remove wubi but worried about the after effects.
[15:47] <Tm_T> hi kids
[15:47] <Hobbsee> old man!
[15:47] <Tm_T> working man!
[15:47]  * Tm_T hides
[15:48] <Hobbsee> old and decrepid man!
[15:48] <Hobbsee> get back to work!
[15:48] <Tm_T> danke sehr
[15:59]  * mneptok yawns
[16:05] <Hobbsee> mneptok!
[16:12] <mneptok> Hobbsee!
[16:13]  * mneptok grimaces with something that feels like happiness and burning
[16:20] <bazhang> the bot cant take a pipe?
[16:21] <mneptok> depends where you insert it.

[16:21] <bazhang> heh
[16:21] <mneptok> actually, i think that comment isn;t a pun, but qualifies as "innuendo."
[16:22] <bazhang> at the very least :)
[16:22] <mneptok> which is so gloriously apropos i must radiate a sense of self-satisfaction all over the neighborhood.
[17:18]  * jpds on it
[17:22] <jpds> Or whatever.
[17:22] <nixternal> groovy
[17:22] <nixternal> but I don't see sparr doing anything "wrong"
[17:22] <jpds> Me neither. But I'm giving him one more chance to listen.
[17:23] <Mez> s/nei/ei/
[17:24] <nixternal> hehe
[17:24] <nixternal> damn grammar police
[17:26] <Mez> d/damn/damned/
[17:26] <Mez> unless that was an instruction ?
[17:27]  * Mez finally gets round to installing kde4
[17:33] <jpds> Oh good.
[17:34] <jpds> god*
[17:34] <Amaranth> and now that guy complains to freenode
[17:35] <Amaranth> stupid colloquy
[17:35] <Amaranth> couldn't see anything
[17:36] <Amaranth> anyway, i bet sparr complains to staff
[17:36] <Amaranth> "let me back in the channel or i'll never donate money again" etc
[17:39] <ikonia> I'll pick up his tab
[18:52] <jpds> OH DAMN.

[18:55] <jpds> I'm logged in and she doesn't like me.
[18:55]  * Myrtti huggles
[18:57] <PriceChild> jpds: you don't appear to be ont he editors list
[18:57] <jpds> PriceChild: Hmm. I should be.
[18:57] <PriceChild> you're on under a different nick
[18:58] <PriceChild> gimme amo
[18:58] <PriceChild> I guess its either because you're on wrong nick or because your cloak changed since.
[18:59] <jpds> I thought Jussi added the new one.
[19:00] <PriceChild> I don't think I have access to mess with it..
[19:24] <Myrtti> ho-hum
[19:24] <PriceChild> Myrtti: 9 days
[19:24] <Myrtti> less than 8
[19:24] <jussi01> Im here now
[19:25] <Myrtti> by this time next week I should have my backpack packed and be sipping Lingonberry Cider in Teerenpeli to keep my nerves at bay, waiting for the bus to take me to the airport
[19:26] <Myrtti> ... I wish I had rhum now
[19:36]  * PriceChild investigates kde4 again

[20:25] <Myrtti> hahahahahaha
[20:33] <Tm_T> he should
[20:33]  * Tm_T hugs Myrtti 
[20:33]  * Myrtti sighs
[20:48] <PriceChild> ikonia: I'm not yet.
[20:48] <PriceChild> ikonia: but kde4 just seems shiny and inviting.
[20:49] <jussi01> PriceChild: it goes oooh, shiny... crash...
[20:50]  * jussi01 is on kde4 right now
[20:50] <Myrtti> I've got an issue with X
[20:50] <Myrtti> it sucks
[20:51] <jussi01> :(
[20:51] <Myrtti> though, atleast now with mesa, X actually restarts (oooooohhhh!)
[20:52] <Myrtti> when I used fglrx, I couldn't kick it to restart
[20:55] <Myrtti> as I was saying before epiphany/facebook crashed my X again in the aforementioned way...
[20:57]  * jussi01 just got his nvidia working again :D
[20:57] <Myrtti> ohshuddup
[20:58] <Myrtti> OH CRA...hhhh
[20:58] <Myrtti> I had drawn the most adorable fairie picture
[20:58] <Pici> aww
[20:58] <Myrtti> and there it went with that crash >____<
[20:58] <jussi01> yes, it was nice :)
[20:58] <jussi01> I have it still
[20:58] <Myrtti> jussi01: this one was new
[20:58] <Myrtti> and it was 400% better
[20:58] <jussi01> oh... :/
[20:58] <Myrtti> full frontal nudity included.
[20:58] <jussi01> doh!
[20:59] <Myrtti> and mushroom.
[20:59] <PriceChild> badger badger badger
[20:59] <Myrtti> DOH.
[21:00] <Myrtti> I haz fail.
[21:02] <Myrtti> of course gimp wouldn't have anything like - automatic saving?
[21:04] <Dave2> don't think so
[21:05] <Myrtti> I'm pissed off now.
[21:05] <Myrtti> It was the most beautiful thing I've drawn in five years
[21:05] <Myrtti> *GRUMBLE*
[21:10] <Myrtti> could npviewer.bin doing a segfault crash the whole X with it?
[21:10] <Myrtti> please say no, I can't live without youtube
[21:16] <TheSheep_> Myrtti: only if the video driver is buggy as well
[21:17] <Myrtti> well that sort of is out of the equasion since the same behaviour happens with two different video drivers
[21:17] <Myrtti> fglrx and mesa... though mesa is that new brand new thingie that has composite enabling features
[21:20] <TheSheep> Myrtti: mesa is a library for emulating certain hardware acceleration features, afair
[21:21] <TheSheep> Myrtti: by video driver I meant things like i810, vesa, nv, etc.
[21:21] <Myrtti> and I know next to nothing about these things (hi all the Finnish overclockers reading this log, yes, your Myrtti MuroBBS moderator knows nothing about hardware and relating issues, innit saaadddd)
[21:22]  * Myrtti sighs
[21:22] <TheSheep> don't worry, each new attempt is better
[21:22] <mneptok> but she's great with a pukka knife, birch twigs, and the ultra-rare artic snozzleberry, so at least we know she's Finnish.
[21:23] <Myrtti> I'll just get a finetuning sledgehammer and finetune my laptop to pieces
[21:23] <TheSheep> patience, grasshoper :)
[21:23] <Myrtti> but it reall was pretty
[21:23] <Myrtti> the mushroom looked so nice ;___;
[21:24] <Myrtti> and the fairies boobs were perky.
[21:24] <TheSheep> unless it was just blind look, you can easily recreate it, only with more detail :)
[21:24]  * Myrtti cries
[21:24] <TheSheep> s/look/luck
[21:25] <mneptok> i saw Perky Fairy Boobs on their '97 tour.
[21:35] <Myrtti> oooh
[21:35] <Myrtti> I can haz a cunning PLLLAAAAN
[21:35] <Myrtti> I'll just bake extra amount of oatmeal cookies next Thursday
[21:35] <Myrtti> perhaps I can bribe some kyuuuuuut Linux geek to fix my X for me at LRL
[21:35] <Myrtti> :-D
[21:35] <Myrtti> WIN!
[21:36] <Myrtti> 1) oatmeal cookies 2) LRL 3) ???? 4) PROFIT!
[21:36]  * PriceChild thinks he deserves cookies anyway
[21:36] <PriceChild> (but without the ginger and don't you dare!)
[21:37] <Myrtti> yes you do *cooocooocooochiecoochieguuuuuu*
[21:37]  * Myrtti pinches Priceys cheek
[21:39] <PriceChild> :O

[21:40] <PriceChild> Myrtti: sounds like you've got a lot more time to enjoy.
[21:42] <Dave2> mmm, cookies
[22:01] <Myrtti> is it just me, or has the looney bin been released big time on -ot?
[22:15] <Myrtti> PriceChild: thanks
[22:15] <PriceChild> :)
