[00:05] heh [00:06] I wonder if "who can crash the other persons computer first" is a good game [00:14] Seeker`: it very much used to be [00:30] elky_work: not any more? [01:47] Seeker`: i'm talking decades ago, dear. [01:48] that would be a little before my time :P [01:48] you know, pre-internet when viruses were actually people having consentual battles of exactly what you described. [01:53] I've heard stories of races to chnage the other persons password [02:13] hrm. Thats mature. [02:15] what is? [02:18] Seeker`: Just a 'user' greeting my entry to a channel by a stupid annoying quip. [02:43] Dragnslcr called the ops in #kubuntu (sporkf) [02:44] <_Zeus_> hi [02:44] <_Zeus_> I got this message when i joined one of the chats [02:44] <_Zeus_> (06:38:13 PM) wee493: (notice) Welcome to the channel _Zeus_ . Please take a seat and make yourself at home. Remember to look at the rules (type !rules) before chatting. [02:44] <_Zeus_> is this allowed? [02:44] <_Zeus_> is this guy an op? [02:44] _Zeus_: no, and thanks for the heads up. [02:44] <_Zeus_> np [02:45] <_Zeus_> he's offline now [02:45] _Zeus_: was this in #ubuntu? [02:45] <_Zeus_> not sure [02:45] or some other channel? [02:45] <_Zeus_> it was either #ubuntu, #ubuntu-offtopic, #ubuntu-bugs, #ubuntu-bugsannouce, #ubuntu-devel, #ubuntu+1, or #ubuntu-testing [02:45] <_Zeus_> i must have lost internet while i was gone and when it reconnected all those chats, i got that [02:45] <_Zeus_> i saw it when i got home [02:46] <_Zeus_> but it wasn an official channel [02:46] <_Zeus_> *was [02:46] _Zeus_: Unfortunately that user is long offline (whowas caches for a period of time) and since we don't know what channel there isnt much we can do about it now. [02:47] <_Zeus_> got it, i could setup a buddy pounce [02:47] <_Zeus_> or someone else [02:47] * jrib greps his logs [02:48] #ubuntu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/49907/ [02:48] <_Zeus_> nice [02:49] <_Zeus_> should i leave now? [02:49] thanks for the heads up _Zeus_ [02:49] <_Zeus_> np [02:49] <_Zeus_> cya around [02:50] only ~20 minutes of being in the channel [02:51] n=duncbot [02:51] probably just some mistake or random testing [02:51] Yeah [04:50] In #ubuntu-offtopic, _Zeus_ said: !omnomnomnom is I has a carrot... [06:30] * Myrtti takes a huge gulp of Maalox [06:32] grumblemornings [06:34] * elky_work huggles Myrtti [06:44] http://lolfed.com/2008/09/23/lol-imitates-art/ [07:23] I just love it when the first things you think when you wake up is a) what the hell am I awake after three hours of sleep and an hour before the alarm goes off b) GOAH, heartburn, AGAIN. [07:23] * Myrtti takes another gulp of Maalox [07:25] oh, and the third thought was right after I put the radio on "what, he dried to *burn* the corpses? SHITE, why did I put the radio on?" [07:25] s/dried/tried/ [07:28] * jussi01 hands Myrtti anti-grumble cookies [07:29] sorry, no cookies today. only porridge. [07:30] * jussi01 slips anti-grumble powdeer into Myrtti's porridge [07:30] cookies sound like something that might make me get ulcers. [07:30] ulcers? /me checks wikipedia [07:30] yeah, ulcers. [07:31] "Ulcers can also be caused or worsened by drugs such as aspirin and other NSAIDs." [07:31] ;___; [07:38] you know its funny, Ive seen and know most of the factoids, but just saw this one for the first time... [07:39] ubottu: sorry [07:39] It's ok, I can't stay mad at you. [07:39] :D [07:39] * Myrtti hugs ubottu [07:39] there used to be a hook in it that made it hug back [07:39] I think [07:40] with random hugs [07:40] some of which were quite disturbing [07:40] then mneptok came and they seemed far less disturbing. [07:41] hehe [07:41] why cant i log into the bot even though whoami knows who i am [07:42] oh, i see... [07:42] [2008-09-24 16:41:47] I'll remember that, elky_work [07:42] [2008-09-24 16:41:49] But stupidbot already means something else! [07:42] why is it doubling it's responses? [07:42] i mean... seriously wtf [07:43] it just does it. [07:43] nobody knows the troubles I've seen... [07:43] nobody buuuuuuuut *glances around* [07:43] oh, sorry [07:43] * Myrtti shuts up [07:43] ubottu: sorry [07:43] It's ok, I can't stay mad at you. Those darned ewoks on the other hand... [07:44] hahahah [07:46] disclaimer: one of the clients here looks like an ewok. [07:47] one whose face has been run over by a truck, but still very ewok-esque [07:48] elky: !! why did you change it... [07:48] jussi01: why not? [07:48] it's funnier now [07:48] nah... its funnier for a small subgroup of people... [07:49] find something to replace ewoks then [10:35] right, chilli0 is wearing thin for others too? [10:37] looks like he was a pain earlier [10:42] the other day he was gloating about breaking into the server at his college or something [10:42] ooh him [10:42] I remember yes, I had a word with him about it [10:42] bragging that he could hack school [10:43] gloating/bragging == couldnt hack his way out of wet paper bag [10:43] that was obvious, he's a school kid [10:43] hehe [10:43] the password was probably password or abc123 or something [10:43] (nothting against school kids) but he was the stereo typical "brag about being l33t" [10:44] nothing against schools, but most havent a clue about security [10:44] school servers are not hard to break into but its too easy to get caught, most of times the server logs it and is looked at end of day [10:45] l33t has no meaning to me. if you run your mouth about wha tyou can do and brag you are a moron not l33 [10:46] t [10:47] gnomefreak, remember: 1+3+3+7 = 14, therefore anyone who is 1337 is 14. [10:47] and should be treated as such. [10:47] :) [10:51] elky: best line of the day [10:52] bash.org/qdb.us hold some great jewels of wisdom [10:55] must be bash, qdb.us lacks it [12:07] crossposting from -women: [12:07] slightly offtopic lolcat: http://icanhascheezburger.com/2008/09/24/funny-pictures-bothers-you-anymore-maam/ [13:09] In ubottu, unop said: kill-9 is Forcefully killing a process (sending SIGKILL) via kill -9, killall -9, etc must be used with caution and only when absolutely necessary.

[15:25] ikonia: Just trying to help a user that isn't listening. [15:25] !prayer | Pici [15:25] Pici: Dear $DEITY, Give me strength to understand and work with users who question my logic, the rules, netiquette and common sense. Give me resilience to teach them the basics of Linux, Ubuntu, Community Guidelines and IRC. Allow me not to stray to nitpicking, argument, foul language or leisure op abuse. Deliver me my daily xkcd, User Friendly, LWN, /. and Planet Ubuntu, and guard over my encrypted drives. Let it be so. [15:26] Myrtti: thanks [15:26] want some of my antacids? [15:26] they're minty and chalky... [15:26] nomnom [15:27] bwurp - ow. [15:29] mmm... chalk [15:30] I love the cherry tasting Maalox.

We have a humorist in our midst. [15:44] I didnt even kick you. [15:44] My rap isnt a waste of time homie [15:45] you silented me yo [15:45] I can see why... [15:45] gets a tad tiresome after few lines [15:46] Go to ubuntu to see my rap [15:46] elky: Did you need me? [15:46] shit man i got kicked again [15:47] mind the language, please. [15:47] SilentBob: just leave - it's clear you have no interest in participating in an ubuntu support channel [15:47] if you can't express yourself without cursing, please have another thought on what you are trying to say [15:47] stop wasting peoples time [15:47] Yo in rap you have to swear [15:48] sure I do [15:48] are you done soon? or should I just kick you? [15:50] elky: Scrolled up, up ubot5 is still up and running. [15:50] oops. the bot can't hear you. [15:50] too bad. [15:50] jpds: elky is likely asleep. [15:51] Yeah, just leaving a message.

[16:00] Oh [16:00] I've seen people suggest rdp, putty, vnc etc etc [16:00] sorry - yes he is still asking [16:01] I thought you where wasking "why" is he still asking ? [16:01] not why, is he still asking ? [16:01] I was asking because you said: ' ahhh now I see why he's still asking' [16:01] yes, he is still asking [16:01] okay [16:01] "how do I connect to windows XP" [16:01] I'm only slightly less confused now. [16:02] 15:55 < amanu> actally im using ubuntu 8 i want to login in a remote system [16:02] he's asked that about 10 times [16:02] and loads of people gave him the answer, thats why I wondered if he was teh guy who made you sigh [16:03] Yes.
