tsimpsonRoasted: hi03:51
Roastedhi there tsimpson03:53
RoastedI was looking for you last night.03:53
Roastedhows it hangin03:54
tsimpsonI was sleeping, luckily I'm up late tonight03:54
Roastedha, yeah. I only just now got home from work.03:54
RoastedSpent 15 hours straight imaging Windows laptops03:54
Roastedto say the least I'm ready for a vacation.03:54
tsimpsonso, you wanted to talk about the ban in #k03:55
Roastedeh, yeah - it'd be nice if we could get to some sort of common ground regarding it.03:56
RoastedI thought it was a temp ban and had planned to just wait it out.03:56
tsimpsonI have a question, and it's a good one03:56
tsimpsondo you still feel you were right an I was abusing my operator powers?03:56
Roastedmore nad more kubuntu questions came up and I was like, well, that sucks, I cant get in there03:56
RoastedIt doesn't even matter anymore. I'm the first to admit I shoot my mouth off at times. I'm just used to channels that aren't so... heavily... moderated.03:57
Roastednot that it's an excuse, but, ya know03:57
Roastedit's just my view03:57
tsimpsonI know #kubuntu was practically dead at that time, but we don't say rules apply 9-5 and it's a free-for-all after that03:57
Roastedyeah, that's understandable03:57
tsimpsonif we enforce a rule at all, it should be all the time03:57
Roastedyeah I gotcha03:58
Roastedwell anyway, I'm just trying to be civil for once and come to some sort of common ground on the matter.03:58
tsimpsonRoasted: one sec and I'll get the ban removed03:59
Roastedyou're the man03:59
tsimpsonRoasted: you should be able to join now04:00

macoits one person being "funny"07:29
xae8kooFlannel: Yeah, the channel is full of spam and stuff07:29
The_ThingIt's getting a little ridiculous07:30
LizardK|ngi wanted to test myself in the #ubuntu-read-topic channel and it said i wasn;t using my usual nick and to come here07:30
macoit's being dealt with, folks07:30
LizardK|ngbecause i want to see a mother spanking her child hard :D07:30
FlannelLizardK|ng: That means you haven't been exploited07:30

LizardK|ngahh ok07:30
macoxae8koo: for flooding...07:30
The_ThingPort 8001 ftw07:30
tsimpsonxae8koo: because they were k-lined07:30
Flannelxae8koo: That mute was removed, other measures are in place, so he didn't really.07:30
macoxae8koo: oh unbanned. sorry i cant read :)07:31
LizardK|nghow do i become an op?07:31
Flannelxae8koo: Is there anything else we can help you with today?07:31
khelvanDoes the exploit of someone trying to send me .mpegs affect my computer in any way?07:31
macomaybe we should define k-line?  it means theyre banned from the whole server07:31
FlannelThe_Thing: Is there something we can help you with today?07:31
Flannelkhelvan: No, it mainly affects routers07:31
macoLizardK|ng: someday if you're good you may be chosen07:31
macoLizardK|ng: that's about it07:32
LizardK|ngi want to be made07:32
Flannelkhelvan: The sending of th mpegs is just silliness, they're trying to send you a file, if you deny/ignore/whatever it, you're fine07:32
macoLizardK|ng: asking won't work07:32
khelvanFlannel, thank you, I didn't know if they were exploiting a vulnerability in IRC clients or something.07:32
LizardK|ngok, i'll do a dance instead07:32
Flannelkhelvan: Nope, it's overzealous router protection07:32
Flannel!exploit | khelvan07:33
ubottukhelvan: There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit07:33
Flannelkhelvan: That wiki page contains a bit more info07:33
xae8kooFlannel: Yes, can you explain all this dcc nonsense to me?07:33
Flannelxae8koo: If there's nothing else we can do for you today, please leave this channel, it's not a place for spectators.  Thank you, have a nice day.07:33
khelvanFlannel - Thanks, I will assume you guys are taking care of the problem and won't worry about my PC.07:33

FlannelLizardK|ng: Please stop.  If there's nothing else we can do for you today, please leave.07:34
LizardK|ngthat page is very vague07:34
LizardK|ngwhat would it do to a vulnerable router, and what is the vulnerability?07:34

ubottumaco called the ops in #ubuntu (xyeveningdress spam)11:10
jussi01thanks Flannel11:11
FlannelI don't have a need for an evening dress, kthxbai11:11
jussi01Just so people understand, I am standing back a little from active operator duties, if another op is free to deal with it then I will not. However, if I am around and other ops are not, then I can and will deal with issues.11:13
Flanneljussi01: That policy is half-baked, for the record.11:14
jussi01Flannel: care to explain?11:15
FlannelI understand what it hopes to accomplish, but I don't think it will.  People are still going to whine because you're an op, and they still think we're all part of an 'exclusive club' and have each others backs 100% all the time and conspire against people.11:16
jussi01oh, cc meeting seems to be on...11:16
jussi01Flannel: I think you are missing the point. idea is just if I need to mediate, then its better if I havent been involved already.11:17
FlannelWe don't (as far as I know) as the Technical board to step down from actively developing out of concerns for favoritism or cronyism or whatever.11:17
jussi01Flannel: this is temporary until we at least have a full IRCC again, then Ill look at the siutuation again.11:17
jussi01at the moment, we have 2 mediators.11:18
Flanneljussi01: No, we have a room full of mediators.  Every operator is a mediator, only after that doesn't work do we appeal to the IRCC.11:18
Flannel(well, every operator minus the one(s) involved directly)11:19
jussi01Flannel: exactly my point. If we get an appeal, and Ive been involved, where does that leave us?11:19
Flanneljussi01: I understand.  I was speaking on the other policy.11:20
