[00:08] !recovery [00:08] To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" [00:08] Do we not have any more information? What does that do actually? [01:19] why does offtopic have a 'robot roll call' in the topic? are we encouraging bots now or something equally stupid? [01:20] elkeee: Have you not seen Mystery Science Theater 3000? [01:20] Its from the show... but I'll change it if its confusing. [01:21] * Pici fires up fortune -s [01:21] i have not, no [01:30] Ah, found something that made me chuckle. [03:25] Mmmm, -ot [03:26] Anyone awake with -ot stuffs? He's coming back [07:08] ? [07:09] Mez: almost 4 hours ago. [07:09] oops ;) [07:09] ah, just the guy I need [07:09] PriceChild, what's with this ubuntu-ops user I just was informed about? How/when should we use it? [07:10] nickrud: how were you informed about it? [07:10] PriceChild, in a memo from ljl [07:10] nickrud: timestamp? [07:11] hm, don't have that anymore. I saved the info on the 12th [07:11] it's functional, I tested that today. [07:11] functional? [07:11] I was recognized with the password I was given [07:12] that's as far as I took it, just logged back off [07:12] * Mez hasnt been given a password :D [07:12] It doesn't appear to have any special access anywhere afaik. [07:12] Well I haven't heard of it having any anyway. [07:13] if it's not to be in my hands, that's fine and dandy. I understood it was to be given access by loco admins as they chose, but I'm fuzzy otherwise [07:13] ahh ok [07:13] I've probably lost an email again sorry. [07:14] ok, sometime in the next few weeks/months I'm sure it'll get sorted ;) [07:15] nickrud: dude its Christmas, get off of irc! [07:15] PriceChild: not anymore :D [07:15] nah, day after. I had a rough day at work, I'm unwinding by teasing #ubuntu :) [07:15] * Mez had to work over christmas :D [07:16] lucky man. We took christmas off, but I had the whole darned office load by myself today. [08:48] nickrud, how did you get that user working? [08:49] would have been handy in -ot the the last couple of days with the influx of ban-evaders/stalkers [12:13] hrm, myrtti still hiding from irc? [12:14] She was here yesterday. [12:17] elkeee: mostly still in vacation yes [12:17] elkeee: if any urgent thing, I can give her a call [12:19] Tm_T, nah, i just miss her [12:19] and she's on jaiku if anything is so desperate [12:23] heh [12:23] we all miss her [12:25] awwww, so beautiful when sleeping [12:25] * Tm_T <3 Ronja [12:38] ronja being? [12:38] the baby or the missus? [12:39] Baby [12:41] it's a sweet name :) [12:41] indeed [12:42] makes you a robber! :) [12:42] topyli: I am [12:42] ooh i'm sure i'm the first to say that too :\ [12:42] topyli: actually her second name consists Jussintytär [12:42] sweet! [12:42] second names [12:45] my brain is smoking while trying to figure that out [12:45] good [14:21] Amblnb, how may we help you [14:23] bazhang @: А фиг ево сказали сюда зайти чтоб #ubuntu-ua ожывить )) [14:23] Amblnb, #ubuntu-irc please [14:23] Amblnb, please /part this channel [14:25] * [eleos2] (n=chatzill@athedsl-4406484.home.otenet.gr): New Now Know How sken is unbanned? ikonia [14:26] bazhang @: Куда это вставлять? [14:26] Amblnb, ----> #ubuntu-irc (not here) [14:35] Garfeild, #ubuntu-irc for this please [14:37] bazhang, it doesn't have access there; I just tested that I could identify as it [14:37] nickrud, ok thanks :) [14:49] this again? [14:50] * nickrud looks around for the noun [14:50] what again elkeee [15:01] bazhang, russian hoodlums [15:02] elkeee, it was a misunderstanding; amblnb was banned in -ua and thought this was the place to receive help [15:02] the other one garfeild is an operator in -ru [15:04] and both coincidentally joined here? [15:05] amblnb joined here assuming he could be helped; garfeild may have misunderstood and joined [15:06] it has been resolved in -irc finally [15:07] bazhang, how many languages do you speak? [15:07] nickrud, not enough apparently; even knowing russian, seems sometimes misunderstandings arise [15:08] all except klingon [15:08] rflol, I've been speaking english fluently for 52 years, and still have daily misunderstandings ;) [15:08] hehe [15:09] haha [15:09] loco channels have much less stringent behaviour filters it would seem [15:11] well yes. we allow a degree of autonomy, but they're all expected to stick to the code of conduct [15:12] every single part of the ubuntu community is expected to abide by that. no exceptions. [15:12] unofficial or not. no exceptions. [15:13] if they don't, they have absolutely no right to call themselves part of the ubuntu community [15:14] The code is more like... a guideline. [15:16] it is, and those who choose to not be guided by it choose to not be part of this community [15:21] there's no point in defining a community by a set of values if people who urinate on those values are allowed to identify as the same as us. it lessens the integrity and relevence of those values [15:25] very true. [15:25] and -ot is a perfect of example of abrogation of those values [15:25] bazhang: 15:25:01 [!] wececw (CM bot) [n=KST_wece@220.116.107.90] has joined #ubuntu [15:26] the topic in -ot may as well be: ban evaders and stalkers welcome! [15:26] bazhang, yes, but not only. [15:27] jpds, yep, they were joining all day yesterday [15:29] you may kill unofficial bots on sight [15:30] bazhang, you should (if you could) change to that topic. Not enough people with clout hang out there [15:32] nickrud, not that loco channels dont have plenty of problems (they do); but the main channel referenced from #ubuntu (ie #ubuntu-offtopic) for chat is such a cesspool at times reflects very badly on the main channel imo [15:33] almost worried to send new users into that sharkpit at times [15:36] i'm equally concerned about the other cesspool that falsely advertises being the first/best ubuntu channel which is closer to an sex and hate channel than an ubuntu channel [15:36] anyway, i need sleeps [16:25] wow alsa has gone unhelpful of late [16:25] or at least that fellow copper [16:26] I can understand their frustration with becoming a dumping ground [16:26] he did not try to help anton at all. [16:26] he basically said 'ubuntu sucks, next!' [16:27] no telling what prior experience brought that on. probably hit the overload point prior to this [16:27] I can relate to beating on an innocent simply because he came after the breaking point [16:28] the helper gnubien was helpful; just bad luck to get that copper fellow [16:29] I simply back away from irc when I get to that point [16:29] I was nice to him: maybe he'll be nicer to the next ubuntu newbie, even if he doesn't help much. I keep saying that someday I'll study up on pulse audio, but will probably not [16:31] sudobash seems to be trolling [16:31] nah, he was told he was wrong about something and is puffing up [16:32] heh [16:32] see? [16:32] thats never happened before [16:34] Abuser of power and Anal retentive FUCKS [16:36] And as polite in PM as in here [16:46] he's close to apologizing I think [16:49] nickrud, You have him in PM [16:49] no, I'm inferring from his quick join then part. Sorta like starting towards a person, then turning around ;) [16:50] Ah.. Hope your Holiday went well. Ours was fantastic [16:50] I've talked to him in pm before though, seemed rational and funny [16:51] Jack_Sparrow, yeah, it was fine. Family's in Seattle area, so it was kinda remote though [16:51] We have a house on the penninnsula, so I know what you mean === Mez_ is now known as Mez [18:08] heh [18:09] took him a while to actually ask a question [18:25] crosspost flooding [18:49] ban-evader/stalker extreme yes-man-1 (aka sp0rtily, z, patchpocket) in -ot [18:49] Pici, jussi01_ Mez ^^ [18:50] * [yes-man-1] (n=eee@217.8.236.179): purple [18:52] bazhang: are certain, how do you know? [18:53] jussi01, the way he is stalking, his speech patterns, referencing certain films as did patchpocket et al, acknowledging that he 'could be' though the IP is not stable, and more [19:25] nickrud, that was not the context he was asking in though. [19:26] bazhang: re: WoW? [19:26] and counterstrike has a free version, http://www.soft32.com/download_2541.html [19:26] Flannel, re: getting pirated games in general [19:27] bazhang: You can't "pirate" WoW. The game is free for download,you need an account to play, etc. [19:27] he had a whole list [20:21] @btlogin [20:21] ubottu: ping [20:21] ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore [20:21] Oh, so you are alive. [20:21] @login [20:21] The operation succeeded. [20:21] @btlogin [23:22] guys [23:22] i know a glitch i think [23:22] so you can talk whail your banned [23:23] runescapemastr55, there's lots of ways ... please don't educate people about it [23:23] * nickrud smiles [23:23] im not [23:23] im tryin to report it [23:24] nickrud? [23:24] oh nevermind!!! [23:24] forget it [23:24] runescapemastr55, we're listening, and thanks for moving here. I'm a lowly op, not particularly intersested but others might be [23:30] guys [23:31] i wanna describe a glitch to you [23:31] if you type "/msg #ubuntu " it will send it to the channel ven if your not in the channle [23:32] runescapemastr55: #ubuntu is +n so I don't believe that true. [23:32] whats +n? [23:33] runescapemastr55: http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml [23:33] im not reading yhat [23:34] an op made me read 3 [23:36] * genii-around sips
