ubottuFor Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道: #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw  或者 #ubuntu-hk13:02
nalioth您可以访问中文频道: #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw  或者 #ubuntu-hk13:17
cody-somervilleWhat is our policy for dealing with people who look for help doing something malicious?13:39
stdindepends what you mean13:41
stdinif it's illegal then we don't help, if they want to ruin their own system (and know that's what they are doing), then it's up to them13:42
Myrttiif they've already managed to bork their system with tools like auto/ultamatix, then we run and teach them how to use alternative methods after they've installed a clean install13:44
ikoniacody-somerville I won't help anyone crack peoples boxes, thingsl ike that13:47
* cody-somerville nods.13:47
PriceChildwireless cracking by any chance?13:53
ikoniaisn't it always13:54
ikonia"I want to learn how to use aricrack"13:54
PriceChildthe documents & faqs on their site are really good13:54
cody-somervilleSYN FLOOD actually13:55
PriceChildoh that's a new one13:55
cody-somerville[09:37] <ciapsadm> I need to flood an ip, not a server13:56
cody-somerville[09:38] <ciapsadm> Programs for windows are flood13:56
PriceChildl13:57
ikoniacody-somerville: "bye bye" 13:57
LjL<disclaimer="i'm not serious">could always teach him by example on his ip</disclaimer>13:57
PiciThow an !illegal at him.13:58
ikoniathere is no reason to flood an ip thats valid13:58
PriceChild"how can I stress test the apache webserver running on my ubuntu server" kinda thing = sure, why not13:58
PriceChild"i want to flood x" = flood what/how/why? maybe not13:59
LjLyes, agreed, look at the intent13:59
PiciThis is one of those "if you have to ask..." type of things.13:59
LjLlike, the other day someone asked "i know this is an illegal question, but ..."13:59
LjLi don't care what's after the "but"13:59
LjLif you know it's illegal then you don't ask13:59
LjLspecifically, the question was about p2p programs13:59
LjLand i've obviously nothing against a question like "how can i install gnutella"14:00
ikoniaPici: yes, I'm inclined to agree14:00
LjLthere is that too14:01
PriceChildAnd is there anything wrong with just ignoring it if you're unsure?14:02
ikonianot sure if it should be ignored14:03
ikoniaeg: allow that sort of discussion 14:03
ikoniasomeone saying "someone in #ubuntu told me how to do it"14:04
ikonia14:57 -!- Acedip is now known as OsamaBinLaden14:57
ikonia??14:57
geniiikonia: Heh, I saw this as well14:58
ikoniaI don't think it's his real name, just asking why he changed, hope it wasn't to provoke anything14:58
ikoniahe changed it, it was to just provoke a response14:59
ikoniaseemed ok in pm, but just wanted to cause a bit of fuss15:00
bazhanghe was making comments a few days back about 'not believing in spoon-feeding users'15:00
PiciOh, him.15:00
ikoniayes, I thought that was teh same user15:00
bazhangyep15:00
ikoniasomeone banned him 15:00
ikoniamay even have been me15:00
ikonia@btlogin15:00
bazhanga known tr.. quantity15:00
ikoniaLjL: how do you search the comments15:01
ikoniaI'm sure I put a comment in about spoon feeding15:01
ikoniaooh the search box does it on it's own15:02
LjLikonia: just like everything else15:02

ikoniadifferent guy15:02
LjLikonia, you know, the above paste was probably not a good idea...15:02
bazhangweird coincidence15:02
PiciIndeed.15:02
ikoniayes, it was an accident15:02
ikonianot much I can do about that apart from apologise15:03
Picijussi01: Could you delete a bt session from the database? See a few lines up?15:03
ikoniaPici: genius15:03
PriceChildcan you not just issue a new one to yourself and the old is removed?15:03
LjLnot sure the old one is removed15:04
PiciI cannot remember either.15:04
geniiI have to be careful of my touchpad, it wants to paste like that sometimes if I swipe the tope right corner wrong way15:04
genii*top15:04
LjLi don't think so, i've often clicked on old BT sessions after requesting new ones, and they worked15:04
PriceChildmine have expired before, i'm just not sure why15:04
ikoniaLjL: I believe you are right15:04
LjLgenii: you can disable the top right corner acting as a middle button15:04
PriceChildbut worth a try15:04
PiciThe BT code clears them after a bit, but I dont remember when or why.15:05
geniiLjL: Good idea, thanks15:05
ikoniaold ones are still valid15:05
ikoniajust tested15:05
LjLgenii: if your touchpad supports multitouch, you can configure it so that two or three fingers tap is middle button instead15:05
geniiI had same one up in firefox 2 days running, refresh still worked on it15:05
LjLgenii: use synclient to test, "man synaptics"15:05
ikonia@mark Acedip #ubuntu "wanted to cause a disruption using nick changes"15:06

naliothhow do you turn off "Contact this user" in launchpad?15:07
LjLam i the only one being randomly mailed by people asking for ubuntu support...?15:08
PiciYes.15:08
naliothLjL: no, see my question15:08
LjLright...15:08
LjLlook at this one15:08
LjLhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/77761/15:09
naliothi just got the same exact one15:10
ikoniayou two are l33t15:10
bazhangwhat chipset15:10
PriceChildthey'll have sent that to a team, not individuals, i got it to15:10
bazhangoh wait. this is not a support channel :)15:11
Myrttibazhang: neither is that email ;-)15:11
bazhangtrue Myrtti :)15:11
geniiLjL: That is one weird message15:12
PriceChildLjL: nalioth: I believe they're being sent to us individually from the contact this team on ubuntu-irc-council15:12
PiciWeird.15:13
PriceChildshall we change that team to have the ML as our contact address, so at least we know someone's sending these emails to the team rather than us individually15:14
naliothaccording to https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/ContactingPeople we can turn off the functionality.  i've looked and can't find it15:18
PriceChildwhere's it say that?15:19
PriceChildoh you acn hide your individual email, but not disable the ability for emailing an entire team15:20
naliothit says you can turn off the "Contact this user" part15:20
LjLPriceChild: the ML seems like the natural choice for our contact address to me15:26
PriceChildseems you can work out whether something is from launchpad by the header, but this is easier 8-)15:27
PriceChildLjL: oh but you can only have each address assigned to one team in launchpad... we're already assigned to ubuntu-irc-cloaks *works magic*15:30
LjLPriceChild: sounds terminally silly15:30
LjLPici: but are you sure? (or have you just changed it?) because here ubuntu-irc-cloaks says "no contact address"15:32
PiciWrong P15:32
PriceChildLjL: i just changed that... but still can't assign it to ubuntu-irc-council15:32
LjLPriceChild: because? same error still?15:32
PriceChild(i'm thinking all mails to ubuntu-irc-cloaks will get sent t ubuntu-irc-council, and so the ML)15:32
PriceChildsame error15:32
PriceChildah now its worked i think15:33
LjLPriceChild: didn't something like this happen before? i.e. we fiddled with emails on launchpad hoping we could "free up" stuff, but it was left stuck?15:33
PriceChildbah no, wrong team15:33
LjLi vaguely remember asking in #launchpad to no avail15:34
PriceChildI'll try again.15:34
LjL#ubuntu [17:19:19] <w441> type /QUOTE PASS 1441516:21
LjLthis looks malicious although i don't really know what harm it could do16:21
PiciIt shouldn't do anything if you're already connected16:22
LjLindeed16:22
LjLstill why would someone tell people to type that?16:22
ikoniaidiot ?16:22
