[01:08] oops [01:12] mneptok: hah [01:13] ... [01:13] mneptok: robes and a wizard hat, of course! [01:13] LjL: mneptok's just mad, apparently. [01:14] that is a conclusion i should have reached much sooner [01:14] trade in that wizard hat for a Sherlock Holmes-style deerstalker cap [01:14] ;) [01:14] you *are* carrying the pointy stick, surely? [01:14] yes [01:17] so you got the "carry a big stick" part done. now we just need to work on "speak softly." ;) [01:23] NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO [01:26] ompaul: i know. that's tantamount to blasphemy WRT Hobbsee. ;) [01:26] hehehe [01:27] * ompaul should stop [01:27] in -ot [01:27] but really [01:27] arrght [01:30] there is no way I can risk that in #u imo [01:30] /cs kb jianfei [01:30] bloody idiot [01:31] I'll take the chance with +1 [01:31] but no way with 1300 users in #u [01:31] arghhhhhh [01:32] ok before I lose it and ban a whole channel I am going to go to bed :) [01:32] take it easy [01:32] Hobbsee: :) [01:35] bleh [01:36] Myrtti :P [01:44] christel: Freenode is sending periodic packets to my IRC client to determine latency and actual connectivity. i consider this abuse. please modify the RFC. kthxbye.

[01:45] mneptok: fine! ill get my own peanut butter [01:46] and all this time i thought Freenode was different from other IRC networks. [01:46] ;) [01:46] * mneptok beams brightly [01:47] i am being most amused at klepas, he has picked up a german twang since going to germany and someone talking all aussie like but with the occasional german twang is quite amusing [01:48] bonzer Nazis! [01:48] christel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfGQmotCIN0 [01:49] christel: i got laughed at when i returned from the army (after living in Germany for 6 years) [01:50] hehe did you develop amusa-accent [01:52] it was a German with a slight Texan accent. keep in mind i was stationed with folks from all over the USA and wherever else the US army recruits from, so I was not around Texans for the most part, anyway [01:52] oh, the horror [01:52] i was thinking that [01:53] hahaha [01:53] fantastic [01:53] love it when I pass through and see a softball [01:54] nickrud: we don't need to know about your men's room experiences [01:54] srsly. [01:54] only an expert would have caught that reference ;p [01:54] Dear Google, I don't care if my IP looks like one used by spammers at some time in the past, and I don't mind the captchas either, but while they're interesting to solve, please do try to make them at least vaguely resemble letters of the Latin alphabet. Yours, LjL [01:55] mneptok: then why do we have to know about yours all the time? [01:55] LjL: when i get a real apartment, i'll stop. promise. [01:55] experts love passing around knowledge, it just flows from every orifice [01:56] nickrud: +s [01:56] there seem to be preferred orifices though [01:58] is Anti-Christ near the nick limit or not? [02:08] FYI, I will probably be with limited internet access this upcoming week, so "don't panic" ;) [02:08] I'm going to Texas for business. [02:09] oh, the horror [02:09] I know... Texans. [02:09] Pici: you are? [02:10] whereabouts you goin, Pici ? [02:10] nalioth: Yeah. Outside of Dallas. [02:10] 5 days of training for work. [02:10] i'll have to go see people in San Francisco. Hopefully those are better than texans :P [02:10] figures. [02:10] Lived in both places. You'll love SF, Hobbsee [02:10] nobody ever comes to Houston [02:11] nickrud: oh good [02:11] I live SF. I wished I remembered more of when I lived there. [02:11] er, s/live/like/ [02:12] Hobbsee, what part of SF will you be staying in, do you know? [02:13] nickrud: oh, Mountain View, sorry. [02:14] the lucky *beep* gets to go to UDS :( [02:14] hahahaha that's not SF :) But you gotta visit the Palo Alto Frys if you have some time. [02:15] if it hasn't changed, it's this weird cross between an outdoors store and computer shop [02:16] nickrud: weird! [02:20] Hobbsee, but for real: if you get a chance to spend an afternoon in SF, I'd suggest starting at market and 6th and walking north to the Bay. You'll get a real feel for the city. [02:20] nickrud: OK. I think we'll be pretty busy, but i'll try [02:21] yeah, why fly all the way to the states and only work? [02:21] hehe [02:21] spain was a lot further [02:24] make that powell & market. You can ride the cable car part of the way ;) [07:42] In ubottu, snuxoll said: unsupported is Unsupported packages and tweaks are just that, unsupported.

[12:32] ahh [12:32] or b: issue a command i'm unsure about in PM. [12:32] hence disobeying [12:32] ok this should get improved again:) [12:32] prepare for the next release [12:32] btw I don't generally do subtle without losing the point [12:34] although, the 'avoid adding joke useless factoids' thing is still relevent, as you can tell by all the "jimbo in #ubuntu-xx said !joe is boing. lol."

[16:25] Tm_T: actually, before my powermac croaked, i had all the DEs and WMs installed [16:26] i figured this time, I'd just stick with E17 [16:26] * mneptok points to a calendar [16:27] it's 2008, nalioth ;) [16:28] * ompaul hugs mneptok [16:28] have a beer for me [16:28] ompaul: i don't drink. alcohol is firewater to my people.

[20:17] Tm_T: also, do you know how hard it is to get a spare key? [20:17] I do, depends on what kind of lock [20:44] hello babehs [20:44] * Tm_T huggles Myrtti [20:48] we seem to have the poetic trolls again [20:50] oh? [20:56] ompaul: I don't think that was warranted actually. [20:56] Flannel, well I had a chat with said party about not being offtopic in #u [20:56] while they were muted [20:56] care to re assess? [20:57] ompaul: when was this? Like 10 minutes ago? [20:58] 4 [20:58] I had a three line convo where they agreed to not go offtopic [20:59] during the mute [20:59] in -offtopic? [21:00] no [21:00] in pm [21:01] we had a three line convo where I pointed out the fact that you had a non support item and that you should stick to support items in #ubuntu [21:01] ompaul: I agree you are right on what most of what I said in #ubuntu was offtopic. But: 1. that's quite a short ban threshold. I have given a fair bit of support in #ubuntu in the past (but not today). I do try to contribute. I am also former maintainer of two pieces of OSS (vimpulse and Event Spy). 2. as for what I said to LogicalDash: was there something wrong in me asking why LogicalDash wanted to upgr [21:01] there was something wrong in you raising the point with me [21:01] ompaul: you mean raising point 2? [21:01] with me [21:01] there was no point to that whatsoever in a public channel [21:01] it was pure noise [21:02] jspiro: we cannot take much count on other contributions when making trouble in support channels [21:02] ompaul: i concede that point. [21:02] Tm_T: and your point too [21:03] OK. I am re-raising question 2 here now :) [21:03] was what I said to LogicalDash really OT? I was trying to figure out what LogicalDash's *real* problem was. [21:03] It is rare to say, "I am bored today. I think I'll upgrade my kernel." Usually there's a reason why they want to do that. [21:05] ompaul: agree? [21:06] hi, can anyone help me to unban from ubnutu+1 [21:06] jspiro, really I think that is a non issue [21:07] Sergiu: you were unbanned because... [21:07] banned I mean =) [21:07] )) [21:07] jspiro, there was only one -- your continued being offtopic after being asked not to be [21:07] for how long? [21:07] Sergiu: let me rephrase, why you were banned? [21:08] don't know [21:08] interesting [21:08] ompaul: when does the ban expire? [21:08] jspiro, I'll consider removing it in an hour if you let it alone [21:08] ompaul: then I will not contest it. could you please set it to auto-expire in an hour? [21:08] jspiro, otherwise I will let it go for the usual [21:08] no [21:08] what is the usual? [21:08] I don't have auto expire [21:09] ping me in an hour I am busy with something irl [21:09] ompaul: k [21:09] back soon ya all [21:10] all : what is the usual? I have rarely ever been banned from an IRC channel. I come to #ubuntu about once a month for support. I assume bans automatically are allowed to be lifted in less than that? [21:11] jspiro: permbans (or even extended bans) are extremely unusual. [21:11] Flannel: ok. so the procedure is that next time I need support, I should come here and ask to be unbanned? [21:12] jspiro: You'll likely be unbanned before said time. But yes, if your ban still exists, come here. [21:12] i sweard about mysefl and i got banned! [21:12] Flannel: ok thank you. [21:14] He really shouldn't have been banned. [21:15] who [21:16] Sergiu: Nothing [21:16] jspiro [21:16] can you unban me from ubuntu+1 ? [21:16] Sergiu: You were banned because of your tone. Intrepid is beta software, it's not meant for the general public. [21:17] nevermind [21:17] how long i will be banned? [21:19] i have installed ubuntu 8.10 and i don't know how to change screen resolution [21:19] gg [21:21] fuck! [21:22] Sergiu called the ops in #ubuntu () [21:22] Sergiu: You're certainly not helping your cause any. === Sergiu is now known as sergiumihai [21:29] what on earth is going on [21:30] sergiumihai: i would highly recommend you alter your behavior, and leave #*ubuntu* IRC namespace until this bad taste leaves our mouths [21:30] @btlogin [21:32] * mneptok detaches [21:33] mneptok, don't know, i have not swear the channel or anyone from channel [21:33] on ubuntu [21:33] +1 [21:33] ) [21:34] donsent matter, can i now if i was banned permanently or not [21:34] and this was [23:37] < Sergiu> fuck [21:34] [23:37] ~~~Sergiu [n=sergiu@87.255.79.154] has left #ubuntu+1 [] [21:34] exactly what then?

[21:35] NOO [21:35] sergiumihai: mmmm, no, that's not how it goes [21:35] has someone told you a wrong meaning for the F-word? [21:35] sergiumihai: you see your misbehaviour? [21:35] Myrtti: no [21:35] it's a rude word, you know? [21:36] you *do* know that, right? [21:36] Myrtti yes, it's very rude word [21:36] so why did you say it? [21:36] you said it here too! [21:39] i will try to enter tommorow ) [21:39] sergiumihai: please don't [21:39] ... [21:41] kids these days [21:50] did someone rap sergiu on the knuckles? [21:52] He didn't get an immediate answer in +1, so he went off [22:02] done [22:05] right so that ban has been lifted [22:05] nalioth, he was not interested in that conversation [22:21] Hellow: hello [22:21] heh [22:21] Hellow: how may we help you tonight? [22:22] I need a host mask [22:22] but I have no clue on how to go about getting one [22:22] what kind are you looking for? if you want a generic unaffiliated mask, join #freenode [22:23] that is what i wanted [22:24] anything else? [22:24] no, thank you [22:26] ompaul, Flannel, all, thanks for unbanning (or auto-unbanning) me. ompaul, I still think you should allow more offtopic in #ubuntu, but I will be more careful now. [22:42] why would you provoke a situation if you've just been unbanned [22:42] seems stupid [22:42] on a side issue can I query what the state of ubottu hosting with canonical is ? [22:42] is that still pushing on or is it now dead (no issue with jussi01's hosting - just curious) [22:43] ikonia: it will probably be happening soon, just as it has been for the last year or so :P [22:43] * ikonia trys to fix the broken record [22:43] Seeker`: I suspected as much [22:43] ikonia: I dont know that is the case [22:43] ikonia: just a guess [22:44] same as my guess [22:46] * LjL doesn't overly like whatever he's seen happening with jspiro [22:46] where ? [22:46] LjL, offtopic warnings [22:46] mute [22:46] conversation [22:46] unmute [22:46] straight away offtopic [22:46] ban [22:46] conversation was in pm?

[22:49] catch the mute [22:49] yes, i'm looking at the mute precisely [22:50] just before that look at the level of offtopic stuff [22:50] what mailing list are you talking about? i have no mail [22:51] the irc mailing list [22:55] ompaul: It's painfully obvious you're feeling tired, annoyed, and cynical. [22:55] Flannel, you don't say ;-)))))) [22:55] * ompaul chuckles [22:56] ompaul: So, do the correct thing, and take a break. Even if its just for the rest of the day, tomorrow, whatever. Go occupy yourself elsewhere and unwind. [22:56] Flannel, sudo lets have coffee [22:56] * Flannel doesn't drink coffee, but sure. [22:56] ompaul: you're lisping [22:56] Flannel, I am out of this channel talking with someone [23:04] i'd like to share something with you -- might matter or not [23:05] there is presently a "theothergord" in #ubuntu-offtopic, who is not gord [23:05] i think he trolled a little in #ubuntu earlier [23:05] he was gord_ earlier, and yeah, he's banned from #u as far as I know [23:05] Flannel, no he is muted [23:05] he was then pointed to ##club-ubuntu (and is there right now) by someone else called "arquebus" [23:05] well I don't remember banning [23:05] this arquebus was previously banned from #kubuntu [23:06] you can see from the BT that the reason he was banned is pretty serious [23:06] LjL: no, he's still theothergord [23:06] Flannel: i know he's still theothergord. i'm saying that "arquebus" told "theothergord" about ##club-ubuntu, while they were in #ubuntu-offtopic [23:06] Ah [23:06] iirc that is against the proverbial rules [23:07] bah, i don't know [23:07] i'm just saying i smell fish [23:07] look at the arquebus ban anyway, seriously [23:08] LjL: and mutton, too? :P [23:08] and that, too [23:08] LjL: What about it are we looking at? [23:08] Flannel: the fact it's a typical "poet" ban [23:08] well, not the poet [23:08] but a pretty typical ban anyway, nalioth should know what i mean [23:09] I see the ban, know what you mean, but am unsure what sorts of conclusions we're drawing from it [23:10] Flannel, no conclusions [23:10] i see a ban, i see someone using a nickname of an -ot regular, i see a channel i don't like being involved with this [23:10] i warn [23:13] Flannel, if I was to say, "status yellow" [23:13] perhaps it might make more sense [23:17] juhaje: How can we help you? [23:18] interesting [23:18] * xaxuxaqu (n=pear@193.43.249.169) has joined #ubuntu-offtopic [23:19] I saw that [23:20] also 15:18 -!- bidyvup [n=pear@193.43.249.169] has joined #ubuntu [23:23] wait what [23:23] ompaul: You going to unmute dmsuperman? [23:23] muting everywhere [23:23] look at /who for that IP [23:24] nalioth: have a look at that /who [23:25] some time [23:25] 0_0 [23:25] they were in #gentoo and very many other channels. [23:25] yes, quite a lot. [23:25] ompaul: Frankly, I don't see any reason for a mute in the first place. Again, I think you need to take a break. [23:26] in pm [23:26] Im going to [23:26] ompaul: care to make this PM public? [23:27] no [23:27] they can if they wish [23:27] I am on the other hand about to unmute [23:27] and then you can remove my ops from all ubuntu channels [23:28] cos I have had enough of this [23:28] O_0 WHAAAAT? [23:28] I AM OUT [23:28] is this such a surprise? [23:28] He's.. having a bad day/week/whatever apparently. His emails on -irc are the same way, aggrivated and somewhat incorherent. [23:28] coherent, even.
