ubottusnuxoll called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic ()00:18
* Hobbsee wonders if eagles has tried coming back again.01:39
* Pici has not seen him since he was last here with you01:39
Hobbseeoh, excellent :)01:40
HobbseeOh.  And what I actually came in for was to mention that it looks like we need more ops for -meeting, and perhaps -motu too.  I'll deal with the -motu ones, as i've got access there, but it would be great if someone with power would find and appoint some more -meeting ops.01:42
Hobbsee(preferably before release)01:42
StevenKHi. I just got privmsg'd by emma, and I thought I should report it01:48
PiciStevenK: What did she message you about?01:49
StevenK#ubuntu-uncensored, and my suspected lurking there01:49
elky_workStevenK: that channel is back?01:49
StevenKNo, but it seems she is plotting another like it01:50
* nalioth blinks01:50
naliothStevenK: i suspect you're behind the times.  such a channel exists at this time.01:50
StevenKAhh01:51
elky_workStevenK: please post an email to irc-council@lists.ubuntu.com with more details about this01:51
StevenKI'm not concerned about the channel, I'm concerned about her privmsg'ing me randomly01:51
StevenKelky_work: Awww, but that involves reaching for my mail client01:52
StevenKAnd IRC is closer01:52
elky_workindeed, as are we. it seems she's not changed at all, and we'd like as much information about your encounter as is possible for you to give us01:52
naliothinclude your logs, please01:52
StevenKI'd rather not post them publically01:52
elky_workthe list isnt public01:52
elky_workthat's why i suggested that list01:52
StevenKAh01:52
naliothStevenK: the irc-council@ is not a public list01:52
* StevenK grumbles at elky_work and write a mail01:53
elky_workStevenK: grumbling only works f2f, which involves you actually showing up at SLUG sometime this millenia ;)01:53
* StevenK hand waves01:54
elky_workhrm, this daal is a warmer mild than i anticipated02:48
ubottu_Zeus_ called the ops in #ubuntu ()02:51
elky_workStevenK: the email has been received, thank you :)03:04
StevenKelky_work: No trouble :-)03:04
elky_workwell, not for you or i03:04

Myrttioh dear10:52
Myrttihaving just said that I've not seen electricity bill since March... a letter from the power company10:53
* Myrtti prays a bit and opens the envelope10:53
* Hobbsee sends Myrtti a Fake Water Bill.10:53
StevenKMaybe they're sending around Bob the Dinosaur10:53
* Hobbsee has it delivered by a french motorcade.10:54
Myrttioh. Only 89,40€10:54
MyrttiI can live with that10:54
* StevenK looks the Euro key on his keyboard10:54
FlannelHobbsee: "Please pay me enough money.  Send it through IRC.  Signed, your eater company"10:54
Flanneler, water company.10:54
Hobbseesorry, canadian motorcade, not french.10:55
HobbseeFlannel: hehe10:55
ikoniajrib: I chose to not help him as I'm trying to not pander to people and deal with people who ask nicly first13:19
ikoniaI'd get to him once the others are sorted13:19
ikoniaI noticed that people who behave badly and just are a pain get ansered quicker to make them shutup/go away, I'm trying to not do that13:20
ikonia(although this guy wasn't bad)13:20
Myrtti*sigh*13:47
* Pici hugs Myrtti 14:09
ikoniawhat's anyones take on this mount output ?14:14
ikoniahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/55634/14:14
ikonianever mind14:14
ikoniahe's using wubi14:14
Myrttiwubi14:14
Myrttiyeah14:14
Myrtti/host/ubuntu is a telltale sign14:15
ikoniaall the effort and he never once mentioned it14:15
ikoniawhy why why wubi is used 'll never know, it's a solution to a non-existant problem that just causes pain14:15
Myrttiikonia: it has its uses14:16
Myrttiit's not as bad as you think, really14:16
ikoniaMyrtti sell me a use 14:16
Myrttiit's a fullfledged real demo and a gentle introduction to ubuntu14:17
ikoniaMyrtti as opposed to a livecd ?14:17
PiciFor people who are afraid to partition their drives.14:18
Myrttiyes14:18
ikoniaI don't agree14:18
MyrttiPici: I don't agree with you there14:18
Myrttilivecd is sluggish, and is more dependant on RAM14:18
Myrttivirtualization can't offer compiz and 3D effects.14:18
Myrttiits not a way to permanently install ubuntu14:19
Myrttiit's a way to demonstrate it and to get used to it, but not to be used permanently.14:19
PiciI'd say its somewhere between a full install and the livecd.14:19
ikoniaI'll re-phrase then, the benfitis don't out weigh the hassle14:19
MyrttiPici: indeed14:19
Myrttiikonia: in that I can agree14:19
Myrttiagain, as my personal opinion14:20
Myrttithen again, I installed wubi to my nieces computer14:20
Myrttiand it has it's benefits14:20
MyrttiI wouldn't even dream of doing a full install14:20
MyrttiI want to tickle a customer with a sharp knife near the ribs or jugular15:07
Piciyouch15:09
Garyjust a gentle tickle then15:10
Myrtti!prayer | oh please dear GOD, hear me scream15:14
ubottuoh please dear GOD, hear me scream: 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 so15:14
PiciAnyone think that we need a !getdeb?15:27
PiciI mean to explain why using it is not really supported.15:28
ikoniabe helpful15:29
gnomefreaksame reason debian archives and other non offical archives?15:32
PiciYep15:33
gnomefreakmaybe make one that fits all and alias getdeb to it?15:33
* gnomefreak not really here i was just cleanign out my channels from status bar15:34
RichiHh06 has been spamming #freenode with his :DDDDDDDDDDD already15:46
RichiHi know i am on the access list, but i don't want to boot him without poking in here15:47
ikoniaon him15:47
ikoniahe's been quiet so far, 2 lines of spam, got my eye on him15:48
Myrttithere, gone15:58
Piciikonia: you keep de-opping yourself.16:17
ikoniaPici: its not me16:17
Piciikonia: chanserv keeps de-opping you.16:18
ikoniaauto_bleh seems to try to deop me, then it either works or does it 3 times16:18
ikoniathis weekend is fix my client weekend16:18
* Myrtti hands ikonia a copy of irssi16:20
Myrtticlean, nice, pristine irssi16:20
ikoniaI think thats what's needed16:20
ikoniaa general clean up16:21
ikoniaI think a script auto_whois on pm caused issues with auto_bleh and I have to restart irssi to get it back to know sane state16:21
ikoniaI'll stop using it16:21
Piciikonia: I had a problem with the auto realname script that gave me similar issues.16:36
ikoniaI'll spend some time at the weekend and house keep / tidy up16:37
Myrtti*yawn*17:21
ubottuIn ubottu, snuxoll said: ;!pre-release is <reply> Pre release software is something you shouldn't run on a production system unless you are crazy.  Ubuntu does not officially support alpha/beta software, as it may cause massive data loss, kill baby kittens, or cause the LHC to create a black hole and kill us all.18:12
MyrttiLOL18:12
Myrtti*snork*18:12
Myrttihello arquebus, how may we help you?18:13
arquebushello? Im wondering if anyone knows if ubuntu-es has a bot for sending out factoids18:13
naliotharquebus: have you tried !asking in #ubuntu-es ?18:17
arquebusnalioth: yes, once or twice, there doesnt seem to be an op around in there, I thought there would be a centralized place for bots in ubuntu for all languages18:19
Myrttiwell first of all, for general issues about loco channels, there's #ubuntu-irc18:20
naliotharquebus: no, have you tried to !trigger !the !bot in #ubuntu-es ?18:20
arquebusnalioth: I'll try that now, that sounds interesting18:21
arquebusMyrtti: I'll check there18:21
arquebuswell !trigger !the !bot didnt seem to work, that would have been cool if it did18:23
ubottuIn ubottu, magnetron said:  rms is Richard Matthew Stallman, founder of the GNU project. See !gnu, http://en.theorasea.org/story.php?title=RMS--Danse-avec-les-GNU and also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stallman18:48
* Pici sighs18:50
MyrttiPici: and whats wrong with sudo shutdown -h +60 ;-)19:26
PiciMyrtti: I was overthinking it.19:26
Myrttiyes, you were19:26
Myrttibut worry not19:26
MyrttiI used at myself for weeks before I realized what "sudo shutdown -h now" really means19:27
