Flannelgenii: It's in my back yard!03:10
FlannelI'm not going though, since I'd only be able to go for the weekend, so no use wasting a slot for people who'd get more out of it.03:10
FlannelI'll see if I can't crash it one of the weekend days htough, that's talks, so it's a non-excludable good03:12

geniiHehe, brandon thinks highly of you Flannel :)04:39
FlannelWe need to reunite some of our regulars with their ability to type things that aren't factoids.04:40
Flannelwhat on earth was that.04:43
elkythat was someone's response to me asking, providing reason, then telling outright that "rape" is not to be used as a general "bad thing" indicator.04:50
geniiThey definitely escalated with "nazi" and "niggardly" etc04:52
elkywell yes, i referred to godwins to explain the logic of minimalisation, and he decided that he could dismiss it all completely with talk about white people stomping on black folk's slur reclaiming of "nigger"04:53
elkyoh, and apparently we english folk don't know the meanings of our own words because nazi, a german word, is hebrew for prince and hence can't possibly be a bad thing because look, it's hebrew. because... um... violent criminal political parties never misuse words in their party names, do they.04:55
* genii makes a nice soothing kettle of tea04:56
elkycan i pour it on my problems?04:56
Flannelelky: That'd scald04:56
elkywell yes, this is part of the desire.04:57
geniielky: Maybe wait til it steeps and gets drinkable-temp04:57
* mneptok boild a kettle of sulfuric acid and memory inhibitors for elky04:57
Flannelgenii: I think it's elky that'll be doing the steeping04:57
geniiMy sentiment was basically... not to let those guys get to you so much, it's not worth it really04:58
elkyFlannel, steeping a human might require more than a single kettle.04:58
elkygenii, oh, i'm just explaining for when he comes in to be a poopyhead about why i kicked him for trolling me.04:58
elkyi wonder, is it possible for ubottu or floodbots to trigger on someone being kicked and send them the guidelines factoid?05:04

blueberryoam_heh05:15
new2Ubuntuhello - how many active people are here?05:15
blueberryoam_me05:15
Flannelblueberryoam_: Hi, how can we help you today?05:16
blueberryoam_I'm just trying to help everybody out05:16
new2Ubuntuinterested in finding out what happens?05:16
new2UbuntuFlannel - you were in the room I was in earlier05:16
blueberryoam_new2Ubuntu here was banned for using the word rape05:16
new2Ubuntuand I was banned05:16
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: Hold on a minute and we'll be able to help you.05:16
new2Ubuntuthank you flannel05:16
blueberryoam_English isn't his first language though05:16
new2Ubuntuand i apologize for being extremely frustrated and angered05:16
blueberryoam_So it's not really his fault05:17
elkyblueberryoam_, it's much better if you don't participate. it's between new2Ubuntu and the ops here05:17
Flannelblueberryoam_: I'm sure he can explain this for himself, is there something you need today?05:17
blueberryoam_okay, I'll leave. Icguess my work here is done.05:18
new2UbuntuI would feel more comfortable if the discussion was taking place here in the room and not in "PM"05:19
elkythis channel is logged, as is #ubuntu.05:20
new2Ubuntudoes anyone here speak Igbo or Nsa05:20
new2UbuntuI'm assuming no05:20
new2Ubuntuare "PM" between channel ops and other users logged as well05:21
new2UbuntuI did save conversation between Ms. Draper and myself05:21
elkynew2Ubuntu, you ought to give a full and proper explanation of the incidents05:24
new2UbuntuI would prefer you not talking to me - if you presume that I am not inflamed by your insensitivity then you are truly ignorant of the inherent problem05:25
new2Ubuntunow, as I understand it - chat rooms are logged - so what is the question05:25
new2Ubuntuis it why I feel that the use of the word "rape" is ok even when someone is upset about a context that it can be used in?05:26
new2Ubuntuor is it that I am told about a rape culture in a self-rieghtous way and then banned05:27
new2UbuntuI use NO profanity05:27
new2UbuntuI was causing NO problems in the chat05:27
new2UbuntuI was being civil and jovial and in fact helping others when I could while recieving instruiction myself05:27
new2Ubuntunow if you are telling me that the word RAPE is not to be used - why is there no list with words who would bother someone due to cultural insensitivity05:28
new2Ubuntuwhen I type the word rape - there is no bot warning me of innapropriate langauge usage05:29
new2UbuntuI am assuming there is some form of communication taking place at this moment which I am not privy to. It would be nice if an ops other than Ms. Draper would respond to me05:30
mneptoknew2Ubuntu: my guess is that most people are reading logs to understand the full context. what channel was this?05:32
new2Ubuntu#ubuntu05:32
geniinew2Ubuntu: A remark like: "I wouldn't want to let google be a nazi and rape all my valuable and delegated searching minutes by giving me niggardly responses" after already being asked to stop using the word "rape" in of itself appears as an escalation05:33
new2Ubuntuand it wasn't very much to read through - there is also the matter of the "PM" between myself and Ms. Draper05:33
geniiI find especially "niggardly" offensive05:33
new2Ubuntuagain - cultural sensativity05:33
new2Ubuntui recall learning at university of a politician from the united states who used the word niggardly correctly and was persecuted for it05:34
mneptokgenii: there is no offense to be taken from the word "niggardly"05:34
new2Ubuntuthank you05:34
mneptokgenii: it has no relation to the epithet "nigger," and derives from Old English.05:34
new2UbuntuI am rather disappointed and frankly quite upset at the level of ignorance with regards to english words being used in an english chat room05:35
mneptoknew2Ubuntu: however, comparison of almost anything to the horrific and totalitarian regime of National Socialism is in extremely poor taste.05:35
new2Ubuntuwhich in the matter iof 3 minutes gets someone banned who was - at NO point causing ANY disturbance in the chat room05:35
new2UbuntuI believe that banning someone from a room for using a word that in neither banned nor vuulgar - to be in line with the beliefs of the national socialist party that was in power in the german empire during world war 205:37
mneptoknew2Ubuntu: not to mention that you deliberately, and with forethought malice and an intent to provoke, directed statements at elky that are well outside of the acceptable behavior for the channel.05:37
mneptok21:42 < new2Ubuntu> I wouldn't want to let google be a nazi and rape all my valuable and delegated searching minutes by giving me niggardly responses05:38
mneptok21:43 < new2Ubuntu> and yes that was for elky05:38
mneptok^^^  you picked a fight. you lost.  ^^^05:38
new2Ubuntuyes - showing yet another instance where the use of the word is not only viable but tasteful and relevant05:38
mneptokthere's no problem with the word "niggardly." however, there IS a problem with trivializing rape and comparisons to National Socialism.05:39
new2UbuntuWhere in the IRC guideline is that stated? that National Socialism and Rape are banned words, topics, or ideas?05:40
mneptokthe fact that there is a problem with trivializing rape and comparisons to Naziism is not a subject up for debate.05:40
new2Ubuntuthe usage of the word rape was to plunder05:40
mneptokso use the word "plunder"05:41
mneptoksince you obviously are familiar with it.05:41
new2Ubuntuthe problem is that you have many peple who do NOT speak english as a native language - and you have connotations for words that are deemed inappropriate - yet nowhere are those uses posted or made available05:41
new2Ubuntuand it appears to be at the whim of individuals05:41
mneptokthe use of the word "rape" was designed to aggravate an already tense situation with elky. you were being deliberately provocative.05:41
new2Ubunturape 4 letters05:41
mneptokand to deny this will cause me to end this discussion, as i do not like my intelligence belittled.05:42
new2Ubuntuwhy do I have to use words that are not vulgar or inappropriate because someone judges them simply on a single definition - this is like president of United States Clinton defining was IS is05:42
new2UbuntuI am not belittling anyones intelligence05:43
new2UbuntuI have a feminist woman complain about the usage of the word Rape and I get banned while trying to get assistance05:43
mneptokyou are if you deny trying to provoke elky by using the word "rape" again.05:43
new2Ubuntuhow do I provoke - there were other users telling me that rape was a bad word to someo people05:44
mneptokbe an adult and admit to it.05:44
macoheh, you say feminist like it's a bad thing <g>05:44
new2Ubuntuso i explain it was for elky?05:44
new2Ubuntufeminism IS a bad thing when one is so wrapped up in it - that it upsets someone when the word RAPE is used in a proper context05:45
mneptokfine. i'm done with you. perhaps someone else would like to listen to your prevarications and feeble justifications. it will not be me. good day.05:45
macoreally, "rape"'s primary definition is unwelcome sexual contact. using it in facetiously is just as offensive as using "gay" to mean "stupid"05:45
macoi suppose you never considered that someone could be upset by the word "rape" not because of feminism but because they themself may be a rape victim?05:46
new2Ubuntugay means full of cheer05:47
new2Ubuntuprimary usage05:47
new2Ubuntuthe biggest problem is that if you look at my context it was not of a sexual nature05:48
macoand was thus the wrong word to use05:48
new2Ubuntuis there a list of words that are not to be used in english speaking channels?05:48
new2Ubuntuand if not - is there a bot that can let someone know to not use rape in that context05:48
elkynew2Ubuntu, actually "full of cheer" was the first attempt at reclaiming a slur.05:49
new2Ubuntuelky you are misinformed05:49
new2Ubuntuyou should learn of the etemology of your english words05:49
new2Ubuntuas we had to do05:49
new2Ubuntudo you know the Nsa word for rape and the word for rapeweed are not even close to eachother05:50
geniietymology05:50
new2Ubuntuonly one person was offended by my usage and that was yourself05:50
elkywhich is why people here are defending my decision? i think not.05:51
new2Ubuntuin a roomfull of people - you were the only one offended05:51
new2Ubuntuto me that seems like the problem is your issue with rape05:52
new2Ubuntuand that to me would seem to be a personal one05:52
ubottuIn ubottu, iflema said: !forget sound05:52
new2Ubuntupeople here are defending you because you are all ops and I pissed one of you off05:52
new2UbuntuI didn't expect to have anything change - but i was hoping for fairness05:52
elkywe dispute each other all the time05:52
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: I think you're not going to get anywhere today.  Even having english as a second language doesn't give you a free pass to be inflammatory.05:53
new2Ubuntusomeone here had to explain that my usage of the word niggardly was perfectly acceptable because another did not understand the word and was offended by it05:53
new2Ubuntusame instance with rape05:53
new2Ubuntuflannel we were both in the room05:53
mneptoki'll defend "niggardly." i will not defend "rape." think on that.05:54
new2Ubuntuwas i being in any way a disturbance or causing any problem ?05:54
new2Ubuntuno and when I said rape did you or any other op have a problem05:54
new2UbuntuI do not recall05:54
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: If elky had been a few seconds later, I would've kicked you instead of her.05:54
new2Ubuntuhow can you be so loose in your choice of definitions for one word and not another05:55
new2Ubuntuyou said nothing to me flannel05:55
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: So yes, you were causing a disturbance.05:55
new2Ubuntuwouldn't the prudent thing to publicly ask nicely to not use the word and when I respond about using it properly you respond in kind saying be as it may - you would prefer me to not use said word?05:56
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: The line you said that was going to get you kicked wasn't an accidental or casual usage, as such, no warning was needed.05:56
new2Ubuntuwhen Ms. Draper says in chat about people not talking about assault in the room but "pm" it is o.k. - to me that is threatening language05:56
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: Again, you're not going to get anywhere tonight, I suggest you come back in 48 hours.05:56
new2UbuntuI am asking for clarification about the usage of words05:57
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: And I'm telling you that you'll be able to ask again in 48 hours.05:57
new2Ubuntuespecially for words such as Gay, rape, i remember the professional athlete using "sloppy seconds"05:57
maconew2Ubuntu: may i say that i have a problem with the use of the word "rape" to mean anything other than actual rape? it trivializes rape. it tells rape victims "your pain is only so bad as <this minor thing>" and that is not ok05:57
new2UbuntuMaco - I am sorry you feel that way - what percentage of your country deals with rape - you can come to mine and see how you feel about it.05:58
new2Ubuntuhere most women have been raped05:58
Flannelnew2Ubuntu: Again, you're done for the night.  Come back later in two days.05:58
new2Ubuntuand many of the men05:58
macoand that is not ok05:58
FlannelMmm, should've typed out a reason.05:59
macoheh05:59
elkyi'm pretty sure the reason is clear05:59
FlannelYeah, but it saves someone from having to hit 'log' in BT05:59
elkyand he knows why what he did is bad, that's why he tried to send a human shield05:59
elkythis is true05:59
elkyi must say, i still find it creepy when folks refer to me on irc by honorific surname06:00
geniiIf someone just said "I don't want nazis to rape me" I'm sure it would be offensive to most06:10
* genii makes coffee06:16
* mneptok just finished some decaf06:18
geniimneptok: My doctor has me decaf. Horrid.06:18

BactaHello bazhang11:53
BactaBefore I go into what I was saying may I ask if you're Chinese?11:54
bazhangBacta, not really important is it?11:54
BactaWas just curious about your nick11:54
jussi01Bacta: how goes it?11:58
BactaHi jussi0111:58
jussi01Bacta: so what can we help you with today?11:59
BactaWondering about my ban in #ubuntu-offtopic12:00
jussi01Bacta: have you been good?12:00
BactaI think I have although others are perfectly welcome to bring things up if they like12:00
jussi01Bacta: Im not really comfortable removing it as I havent the information, so I am going to leave this for ikonia or elky.12:01
BactaIf elky wants to discuss this I would be happy with that12:01
jussi01Bacta: depends if she is around.12:02
* jussi01 needs to go, laters all12:02
Bactabaibai12:02
Bactaelky: You about?12:02
elkyI'd rather stay out of this. i don't particularly feel like having promises to me be broken at this point in time12:05
Bactaelky: I feel like I've grown out of trolling12:07
BactaIt's no fun and it annoys people12:08
elkyyou said this exact same thing to me the last time you "out grew" trolling. you then betrayed all my guidance12:10
Bactayeah well frankly i'm just at a point now where i have better things to do than trolling12:10
Bactai'm not going to beg to be unbanned but i will say that you'll get no crap from me henceforth12:11
Myrttiand what then when you get bored?12:11
BactaMyrtti: When you're working 50+ hours a week you're too tired to get bored12:11
elkyyou were working those sorts of hours during your last relapse too12:12
MyrttiBacta: what then when you don't work 50+ hours a week?12:12
BactaI don't see that happening Myrtti12:12
Bacta*sigh*12:12
BactaI've also got the resemblance of a social life somewhere and have a number of code projects i work on as well as some other contracting on the side12:13
Bactabut the thing is that if i ever do get bored i find stuff to do and that doesn't involve trolling12:14
Bactai'm tired of it, as much as you all are12:14
bazhanggood to hear12:15
Bactaalso got given my cloak back so that suggests to me that Freenode don't see me as an issue anymore12:16
Bactaand lets get this straight, i was causing them some significant grief and work in the past12:16
bazhangwell as you are not asking to be unbanned, was there some other issue you wished help with?12:17
Bactai would like to be unbanned12:17
elkybazhang, he's asking. "not begging"12:18
bazhangdon't think that is going to happen based on a single instance of you promising to be good, considering your history Bacta12:18
Bactahave i caused any issues in #ubuntu that you know of?12:19
Myrttitsimpson: thanks12:19
Bactaor any of the loco channels?12:19
bazhangBacta, you came in saying you were not going to beg...12:19
Bactayou've obviously never seen someone like me beg on irc before ..12:19
bazhangBacta, and as the answer is clearly 'No', really no way forward at this point12:20
Bactaso what's the plan?12:20
Bactanobody has ever told me what's going to happen with this ban12:20
elkybazhang, it's a no from me personally, not speaking for everyone.12:20
bazhangnone that I know of12:20
elkyi just don't want to deal with the expenditure of energy that the last ... respite required.12:21
bazhangelky, I agree with your view as to a single say-so is not sufficient at this point12:21
Bactayou see if i knew what was happening/going to happen i wouldn't need to come in here and be a bother12:21
bazhangBacta, then take a good long break from visiting here12:21
Bactayou see there's not much else i can give you beyond my word12:22
Bactabut it's clear that for certain people my word is never going to be enough despite anything that may happen in the future12:23
bazhangBacta, well as that (your word) is clearly not sufficient at this point, there really is no way forward12:23
bazhangBacta, it's not 'certain people'12:24
Bactawho is it?12:24
Bactaall people?12:24

Bactathat's all really12:26
bazhangok12:27
Tm_TBacta: you might like to come back when ikonia is available if you like to talk with him12:27

LjLops, does anyone have any last-minute feature requests for the floodbots before i feature freeze so i can make them work with Seven?12:31
LjLor rather, freeze period12:31
MyrttiLjL: perfect timing you have12:31
LjLdo i12:31
Myrttiyup, Bacta just left12:31
LjLbacta = troll right?12:32
Myrttiseems like the channel has revolving door system going12:32
bazhangha12:32
MyrttiFIFO12:32
LjLyou should make an #ubuntu-ops-queue :P12:32
LjLhi jrib12:32
Myrtti*snerk*12:32
jribhey LjL12:33
Myrtti"please hold, all our customer service personnel are currently busy. To hasten your service, please /msg ubottu ops1 for discussing your ban to be lifted, /msg ubottu ops2 for someone harassing on a channel..."12:34
Myrtti<pan flute music />12:34
bazhanghehe12:34
LjLoh, *i* would like that12:34
LjLpress ops3 if you want to complain that #ubuntu is too busy12:35
elky"...and remember, you are not a number to us. You are 4th in the queue, a customer service operator will be with you as soon as one is available."12:35
Myrtti"thank you for your patience. all our customer service personnel are currently busy. Did you know that #ubuntu-ops services approximately 8 cases a day, each taking up to 20-60 minutes of time to solve."12:35
Tm_T...and at that point I would get you all to coffee break12:35
Myrtti"please hold"12:35
LjL"*click* We're sorry, a netsplit has caused your call to disconnect from the operators. Please, reconnect and try again."12:36
MyrttiHAHAHAHAH *rofl*12:36
Tm_TMyrtti: would be lovely if queue ahead would get longer and longer everytime user tries to hurry it up12:36
LjLTm_T: i have a bot ready for that already12:37
LjLi just need to change the trigger from "is karmic out yet?" to "is it my turn?" or something12:37
jriband ascii art captchas?12:37
Tm_TLjL: ye12:37
LjLjrib: yes!12:38
LjLjrib: no, wait, no.12:38
LjLunicode captchas12:38
LjLso people will learn to run proper utf-812:38
topyliof course, we should try and redirect as many people to an online form instead of trying to contact us for real12:38
Myrttiof course12:38

Tm_Tthat is annoying yes, it should say in what channel IMO15:16
Myrttiwell we know in what channel15:16

ikoniahe pm'd m a few times18:09
Picioops, I should have phrased that better18:18
MamarokTm_T: hola is Spanish, not French :)19:06
FlannelSo, "no more auto translate" that means that +q won't mean +b %foo?  but +b %foo is still what we need to do?19:08
Tm_TMamarok: I know19:09
Tm_TFlannel: I think it means +q is what we need19:09
FlannelTm_T: That's certainly the feeling I get, but that's not what the words are saying19:09
Tm_TFlannel: that's what they mean, anyway, but in doubt ask in #freenode-seven19:10
Tm_TMamarok: somehow I have feeling he was french anyway19:10
tsimpsonFlannel: +q is now a separate mode, to mute someone you do /mode #channel +q hostmask19:29
tsimpsonso there is no need to use %19:30
tsimpsonalso, there is no +d (realname/gecos ban)19:30
tsimpsonyou use +b $r:realname to do that19:30
Flannela separate mode yes, but that doesn't say whether b %foo will be broken, or is just deprecated, or what19:31
Flannelmaybe I've just got documentation going to my head19:31

jussi01hiya rww21:46
rwwGood day. ubottu currently has two factoids concerning lm-sensors, !lm-sensors and !sensors (which has an alias !lmsensors). !lm-sensors seems to me to be better, so I propose that !lmsensors and !sensors be aliased to it.21:46
jussi01!lm-sensors21:46
ubottuTo access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions.21:46
