Myrttitrue, but that's what nights and days are for09:14
Myrttiooh09:14
MyrttiI love BBC09:15
Myrttibut really. Just for comparison, I bought a small bar of Cadburys Dairy Milk yesterday09:16
Myrttiit was almost as bad as the chocolate in the Christmas calendars09:17
MyrttiI guess I'm a spoilt child09:18
Nafallo:-)09:18
NafalloMyrtti: try Wispa :-)09:18
topyligood chocolate never spoiled a child!09:18
Nafallohehe. I'm going to Sweden this weekend.09:18
MyrttiI'm not actually that big fan of chocolate09:18
Nafallopretty sure I'll spend about £50 on chocolate ;-)09:19
topylii need a cabinet for my printer, disk and router. they're ugly on the table in the hallway. means i'll get to go to ikea with the lady09:21
Myrttithis place needs about everything09:22
topylii'm thinking we should leave in the morning, have the 2 euro breakfast, go shopping, eat meatballs for lunch, have a couple of beers, get the cabinet and go home09:22
topyliikea theme day09:22
Myrttisounds nice09:23
* Flannel doesn't really understand the charm of Ikea.09:23
topylii like the food :)09:23
MyrttiI feel like I'm living in Ikea currently, well, the atmosphere of it09:23
Myrttishopping frenzy...09:24
Myrttithings are cheap, there's more options from where to choose09:24
MyrttiI saw a cake yesterday that was in the shape of a gaming console controller with Super Mario pictures of it09:25
FlannelWEeeee wikis down09:25
Myrttinever see anything like that in Finnish stores09:25
NafalloFlannel: huh?09:25
topyli:)09:25
FlannelNafallo: wiki.ubuntu.com?09:25
NafalloFlannel: nope. up.09:25
Flannelh.u.c/c is up though09:25
FlannelPsh.  Now it's up.09:25
Flannela minute ago I got a 50309:25
topyliikea packaging is awesome. you see a 2m x 5m bookshelf and buy it. you go fetch the item and it's packed in a matchbox09:26
FlannelIts... just... flat packing....09:26
FlannelAgain, /me doesn't understand the charm of Ikea.  Maybe it's just me.09:26
topylii swear there's a little bit of magic involved09:26
Myrttiit's the downstairs of Ikea that makes me go crazy09:26
Myrttiall the little knickknacks for cheap09:27
Myrttiok, now the BBC show is starting to piss me off09:28
topyliperhaps i should see if ikea actually has my cabinet before i go there09:29
topylino "server cabinet" department there :(09:31
jussi01topyli: Myrtti: I can keep tuhina! :D09:41
Myrttijussi01: wheeeeee!09:42
topyli\o/09:42
jussi01:)09:42
topyligah. i need something like this but that's too good and fancy: http://www.ikea.com/fi/fi/catalog/products/1014669109:44
Tm_Tjussi01: hooray (:)09:44
topylii would also need to break it a little, take off the back to keep airflow. that looks like it would collapse if i did that09:45
Flanneltopyli: You'd have to cut holes in the back10:04
topyliyeah better than removing in whole :)10:05
topylii don't want to pay for locks and the slide door and wheels and all that though10:05
FlannelWhat do you need it for?10:06
FlannelWhat are the parts you do want ;)10:06
topylilet me find a picture of the current situation :)10:07
topylihttp://flickr.com/photos/topyli/2492075892/10:07
topylithere's now a hard disk too10:08
topylione shelf for the printer, one shelf for the router and disk, and clean top to throw stuff on10:08
topyliclosed cabinet10:08
topyliit's next to our front door, so we would like to throw keys and phones and wallets on top of the cabinet of course10:09
FlannelI say just make one yourself!10:09
topylitrue, can't be too difficult even for me10:09
FlannelEspecially if you just do it rather spartanly.  Few strategically sized pieces of wood (six or seven) a few wood screws, etc.10:10
Myrttiwhee! payday!10:10
FlannelUnless you want fancy.  In which case, ditch the wood screws, go with proper mounting of crossbeams, find a router, and varnish10:11
topylidoesn't need to be fancy at all, but it can't be ugly either10:11
Flannelwell, and use proper wood, instead of particle board10:11
topylii could even just make the shelves, the sides could be cloth10:15
Myrttitopyli: sounds like http://www.ikea.com/fi/fi/catalog/products/5011475410:17
topyliMyrtti: close10:18
topylione shelf too few. although i could hang the router and the disk under the top one10:18
FlannelIs it just me... or does that last one look crooked?10:18
MyrttiI'd personally get http://www.ikea.com/fi/fi/catalog/products/00086683 in white10:19
Myrttibecause keeping the spare paper etc behind lock and key is a good idea10:19
topyliFlannel: it does :)10:19
Myrttiit is10:19
Myrttiand having wheels underneath is also a good idea10:21
topylithe lock wouldn't be useful for me, but that doesn't look very bad10:21
Myrttiit definitely needs a door though10:22
MyrttiIt looks less cluttered if you can hide papers and stuff behind them10:23
topyliyes, although a hanging cloth does the trick too10:24
topylialmost: http://www.ikea.com/fi/fi/catalog/products/3008921310:28
topylimeh. as if i had anything to say about buying furniture anyway :)10:31
Myrttihehe10:31
MyrttiMissus decides, and that's good10:31
topyliit's perfect, since she's not so eager to compain afterwards10:36

MyrttiTm_T: prolly not16:22
nixternalhey, if someone has time, remove me from the Ubuntu ops list as I don't sit in that channel any more and really don't have the time to dedicate to it16:22
bazhangMyrtti, done. All *4* of them.16:36
bazhanga great number of the bans seem to be freenode bans; what's that indicate? Floodbots?16:38
LjLno16:38
bazhangLjL, !!16:38
LjLit just means that, since the bans were set, servers have split badly16:38
LjLwhen they relinked, the bans were backported onto the split server, but the information about the banning user was lost in the process16:38
LjLconnect to another server, and you'll find that the bans that show up like that change16:39
bazhangLjL, so some of them might be myself or others?16:39
LjLyes they might16:39
LjLtwo ways to know. 1) check the bantracker 2) connect to other servers and hope you find one where the ban appears with its correct owner16:40
bazhangso should we clear out those as well? they seem to be the greater majority in the list16:40
LjLboth are a pain16:40
LjLthey definitely aren't the majority on the server i'm on16:40
LjLthere's 20 of them here16:40
LjLi'm on calvino.freenode.net16:40
bazhangon sagan there are near to a hundred 16:42
LjLbazhang: sagan probably rebooted relatively recently16:45
bazhangLjL, so would you recommend I try to match the btracker with what I see in xchat banlist window and do it that way, or is there some way that knowledgeable folk do it16:46
LjLbazhang: no, i'd recommend you open another connection to, say, calvino16:46
LjL(or there might be an even better server... but anyway the ones on calvino look like ones that should stay set, to me)16:46
bazhangLjL, that sounds more difficult to me than the method I mentioned :)16:47
LjLbazhang: why? the BT method involves matching each ban against the BT, while switching windows all the time16:48
LjLbazhang: if you just connect to another server, you can open up the banlist in there, type your name in the search box, and remove those16:48
bazhangLjL, never actually used irc until I got onto #ubuntu irc16:48
bazhang<<<---idiot16:48
LjLbazhang: of course if you actually want to *check* what the bans are about in the BT before removing them, then just use the BT16:49
LjLi don't, i just remove old ones that aren't redirects to special channels and that don't blatantly look like static IPs ;)16:49
bazhangLjL, well not had any recently, and if they are a continued problem then can just deal with them again.16:49
bazhangeg kelvin91116:50
LjLbazhang: then tell your client to open another server tab, or whatever it calls it, type /server calvino.freenode.net, then identify as yourself (/ns identify bazhang password, including the bazhang since you're not connecting from your nickname), and get on removing16:50
bazhangLjL, okay thanks16:51
bazhangLjL, wow; many on calvino16:59
bazhangLjL, I cant seem to access reynolds though16:59
bazhangsays it is a misspelling16:59
LjLbazhang: reynolds is not a leaf node, it's an "internal" server16:59
bazhangLjL, okay; any others I might try?17:00
LjLbazhang: everything in /links if you want, but there's probably not much need17:00
bazhangLjL, much appreciated :)17:00
bazhangMyrtti, correction: all *19* of them :)17:01
Myrttihehe17:01
MyrttiI haven't got any myself17:02
bazhangI saw a couple on calvino for you17:03
Myrttiyeah, but I checked the bantracker and they're permbans17:03
