| Myrtti | !prayer | 08:01 |
| ubottu | 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 leisurely op abuse. Deliver me my daily xkcd, User Friendly, LWN, /. and Planet Ubuntu, and guard over my encrypted drives. Let it be so. | 08:01 |

| arand | And user dffgrf | 11:32 |
| jussi01 | arand: sorted | 11:33 |
| arand | thankyou | 11:34 |
| Mamarok | hi jussi01 | 11:39 |
| Mamarok | sorry, was afk | 11:39 |
| jussi01 | Mez: please dont add useless factoids. | 11:44 |
| jussi01 | !-nbr | 11:44 |
| ubottu | nbr aliases: unbr - added by Mez on 2009-08-25 22:19:54 | 11:44 |
| jussi01 | !nbr | 11:44 |
| ubottu | nbr is Ubuntu Netbook Remix | 11:44 |
| Mez | why is that useless? | 11:46 |
| jussi01 | Could you explain the point of it to me? I cant actually see one, except for perhaps explaining an acronym, which isnt very helpful | 11:46 |
| jussi01 | especially as it is UNR... | 11:47 |
| Mez | jussi01: because people tried to use !nbr to explain what nbr meant | 11:47 |
| Mez | just remove it if you don't like it. | 11:48 |
| jussi01 | Mez: if you are going to have a factoid that tells something like that, you need to include a link to the product, and a breif explanation of it. not just a name. | 11:48 |
| * Mez snaps to attention | 11:48 | |
| topyli | just change it to "UNR is a more resource hungry and desktop space hogging, useless interface to make your computer look a bit like the iPhone." | 11:50 |
| jussi01 | great, Im glad you are paying attention ;) This is important for everyone that we have sane factoids, they are seen by many users as operator approved explanations for things, and we need to make sure they are not only correct but useful also. | 11:50 |
| topyli | or maybe not :) | 11:50 |
| bazhang | hehe | 11:50 |
| Pricey | bazhang: wrong | 12:50 |
| bazhang | Pricey, ?? | 12:51 |
| bazhang | that was clearly offtopic. | 12:51 |
| Pricey | Check out the factoid. | 12:51 |
| bazhang | I know the factoid. | 12:51 |
| Pricey | !best-#ubuntu-offtopic | 12:52 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:52 |
| Pici | If its *discussion* the person is looking for, the bots aren't going to be of much use. | 12:52 |
| bazhang | asking which is better , ubuntu or vista , offtopic. Don't see how that was a wrong call on my part Pricey . | 12:53 |
| Pricey | bazhang: I was referring to your pointing to #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:54 |
| bazhang | Pricey, indeed. | 12:54 |
| bazhang | Pricey, please suggest a more suitable candidate for offtopic discussion such as above. | 12:54 |
| Pricey | !best | 12:55 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 12:55 |
| bazhang | that would be suitable for which is the best media player, etc. | 12:56 |
| IdleOne | Morning I just received an email informing me of my application to the ubuntu-irc op team. Would it be possible to know when I applied for it? | 13:31 |
| IdleOne | I can't seem to find that info | 13:31 |
| Pricey | IdleOne: 4/5/09 | 13:34 |
| IdleOne | that is month/day/year? | 13:34 |
| Pricey | day month year | 13:34 |
| IdleOne | Pricey: I did not apply for that | 13:35 |
| Pricey | IdleOne: You did. | 13:35 |
| IdleOne | Pricey: ok my account may have but /I/ did not | 13:35 |
| Pricey | IdleOne: Ok? | 13:35 |
| IdleOne | just saying | 13:35 |
| IdleOne | I will change password | 13:36 |
| IdleOne | thank you for your help :) | 13:36 |
| Pricey | Ok | 13:36 |
| Pricey | None of us mind at all :) | 13:36 |
| topyli | IdleOne: so do you want to get rid of the team membership? :) | 13:37 |
| Pricey | topyli: He was declined. | 13:37 |
| topyli | ah | 13:37 |
| IdleOne | I just do not recall putting in the application | 13:38 |
| topyli | well what i did was just join the team on launchpad, then waited for approval | 13:39 |
| IdleOne | not sure why I was declined either but more concerned about not remembering it at all | 13:39 |
| Pici | It was a while ago.. | 13:40 |
| IdleOne | I just received the email this morning | 13:41 |
| bazhang | heh | 13:41 |
| Pici | I mean you requested to join the team a while ago | 13:41 |
| IdleOne | Pici: I have been in #ubuntu for almost 4 years. I would remember applying for op, I think | 13:41 |
| Pici | IdleOne: /me shrugs | 13:41 |
| IdleOne | with some breaks in between | 13:42 |
| topyli | my guess is you just did it on launchpad when not paying attention :) | 13:42 |
| bazhang | not remembering would be consistent with accepting; given the mental breakdown requisite | 13:42 |
| topyli | aye. i'm sure IdleOne would make the perfect -ot op | 13:43 |
| IdleOne | topyli: why is that? | 13:44 |
| topyli | IdleOne: just joking, with bazhang's sanity qualifications comment | 13:44 |
| gnomefreak | this seems a bit backwards | 13:44 |
| bazhang | IdleOne, run if they ask you to op there :) | 13:45 |
| IdleOne | well if sanity is a qualification then I don't qualify | 13:45 |
| Myrtti | who, sane? | 13:45 |
| Myrtti | me? | 13:45 |
| topyli | heh, not many on -ot do | 13:45 |
| bazhang | !snakepit | 13:45 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about snakepit | 13:45 |
| IdleOne | I believe topyli can handle -ot | 13:45 |
| Myrtti | *SPOINK* | 13:45 |
| IdleOne | .msg bazhang anyway of knowing why I was declined? | 13:47 |
| IdleOne | yeah | 13:47 |
| bazhang | hehe | 13:47 |
| IdleOne | .msg | 13:47 |
| IdleOne | lol | 13:47 |
| IdleOne | that is probably why | 13:47 |
| bazhang | !fail | 13:47 |
| ubottu | FAILZ! | 13:47 |
| IdleOne | IdleOne-- | 13:47 |
| IdleOne | so is there? | 13:47 |
| bazhang | I am guessing wanting to do it is immediate disqualification on mental grounds :) | 13:48 |
| IdleOne | well either way, still love ubuntu and the community. I keep on keepin on | 13:48 |
| Pici | Anyone here with some insight on hrhodes in -ot? | 13:48 |
| topyli | IdleOne: if you're not an operator on ubuntu channels, you're unlikely to be a part of the ops team | 13:49 |
| Pici | I'm trying to load up the BT, but its taking its time. | 13:49 |
| topyli | thanks pici | 13:50 |
| bazhang | nothing I can see in BT | 13:51 |
| IdleOne | alright well later folks | 13:51 |
| Pici | IdleOne: We generally pick from contributing members of the irc community when we are looking for new operators. | 13:51 |
| IdleOne | Pici: contributing in what sense? | 13:52 |
| Pici | IdleOne: Helpful in channels, respectful of our channel guidelines. Also, we aren't always looking for more ops | 13:52 |
| IdleOne | alright well thank you for all your help | 13:55 |
| gnomefreak | Pici: never seen him before i dont think but im concered about the "try to ban me" comment but i will watch for a while | 13:55 |
| gnomefreak | good timing Myrtti | 13:56 |

| jussi01 | mneptok: those are horrible | 19:20 |
| mneptok | jussi01: exactly | 19:23 |
| Myrtti | would anyone have objections if I'd ban that hostname on permanent basis on #ubuntu? | 19:28 |
| jussi01 | Myrtti: yes, I would. Its not likely it will be used in #ubuntu and will only fill up the banlist. I expect it was put together forthe purpose of trolling you women. | 19:32 |
| Myrtti | jussi01: thanks | 19:34 |
| Myrtti | would anyone have objections if I'd remove some permanent hostname based bans that are based only on the fact that the hostname is rude and is put together for the purpose of trolling us Ubuntu? ;-) | 19:35 |

| jussi01 | Myrtti: my point is, as we made fairly clear the other day that we don't just ban in #ubuntu because of incidents that have happened elsewhere. Now each of those bans you are suggesting need to go under the due process of checking them out and thought of whether they are likely to come back, and if not, remove them. | 19:40 |
| Myrtti | right | 19:41 |
| Myrtti | as always, I surrender to your unsurpassing wisdom | 19:41 |
| Pici | Myrtti: er.. Are you being sarcastic? | 19:43 |
| Myrtti | no | 19:44 |

| guntbert | Hi, is it possible to tell ubottu i want *all* findings (as in find screen) - by default it just gives me 5 ... (and 30 others) | 19:46 |
| Pici | guntbert: The bot currently cannot do that. | 19:46 |
| guntbert | Pici: ok, thanks :-) | 19:47 |
| jussi01 | guntbert: no. thats what apt-cache search and apt-file search is for :) | 19:47 |
| Flannel | or packages.ubuntu.com | 19:47 |
| guntbert | jussi01: you are right of course - I was only lazy :-) | 19:47 |
| guntbert | bye - and I didn't say "thank you for your work and efforts" recently | 19:48 |
| jussi01 | Myrtti: you are right though, some of those old bans do deserve to go, feel free to take a look at and if you feel its right to remove some of them. We can always reban if necessary. | 19:49 |
| Pici | topyli: you know you didnt remove him from the channel, right? | 20:23 |
| topyli | i'm really messing this up Pici :) | 20:24 |
| topyli | hi DrDerek-i | 20:25 |

| jpds | mneptok: Oh, right. | 21:38 |
| jpds | This is why automation rocks. | 21:38 |
| mneptok | i prefer hand-crafting my banmasks | 21:39 |
| Flannel | mneptok: Hand crafted means they've all got that personal touch, not a cold mass manufactured feel to them? | 22:10 |
| topyli | "this troll hand-banned by mneptok. ban covered with limited two-month guarantee" | 22:11 |
| mneptok | my bans are pareve | 22:14 |
| ubottu | In #ubuntu, master_ said: ubottu: a bot is smart | 22:18 |
| ubottu | In ubottu, master_ said: were is the boot folder | 22:19 |
| jpds | ubottu: tell master_ about yourself | 22:33 |
| mneptok | ugh. bruenig. | 23:20 |
