[05:01] <Myrtti> hhm.
[05:02] <Myrtti> has arrdchoille started to give out his blogeentries more recenttly?
[05:22] <bazhang> yepp
[05:45] <Myrtti> !ubuntuone
[05:46] <Myrtti> !ubuntuone ~= /$/ support and help available at #ubuntuone/
[05:46] <Myrtti> !ubuntuone
[08:02] <dholbach> good morning
[08:47] <MenZa> Morning, dholbach :)
[08:48] <dholbach> hi MenZa
[08:53] <Myrtti> I wonder what this ruse with the nickspamming is
[08:56] <MenZa> Myrtti: nickspamming?
[08:56] <Myrtti> MenZa: see #ubuntu
[08:57] <Myrtti> /last Rhory
[08:57] <MenZa> oh, right
[08:57] <MenZa> Yeah, that's odd.
[08:57] <MenZa> Happens frequently in #freenode.
[08:57] <Myrtti> it's not the first time for that
[08:57] <Myrtti> I just fail to see the aim of it
[08:57] <Gary> it's designed to be annoying :'(
[08:59] <MenZa> Well, it succeeds.
[08:59] <MenZa> :(
[08:59] <Myrtti> ah, now I know
[08:59] <Myrtti> it's a scout
[09:10] <Myrtti> hm, time to go +Rr again?
[09:17] <Myrtti> I certainly hope the k-line is sufficiently long this time
[09:17] <Gary> what kline?  /me whistles
[09:20] <Myrtti> can you monitor from somewhere if that ip has attempted to connect now?
[09:24] <Myrtti> are the baddies gone now, daddy?
[09:25]  * mneptok is still here, darling
[09:26] <mneptok> actually, no i'm not. i'm going to bed.
[09:51] <ikonia> I'm going to ask bacta to leave #ubuntu-nz
[09:51] <ikonia> actually never mind, they can deal with it
[09:55] <Myrtti> eh.
[09:55] <Myrtti> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/guadalinex/+bug/513915
[09:55] <Myrtti> perhaps they missed the point...
[09:57] <ikonia> yes, thats intended behaviour
[09:58] <Myrtti> ikonia: I meant, if the person who commented missed the point
[09:59] <Myrtti> that bugreport is basically what I wrote an email to the IRCC council about after planning to put a blanket ban on the whole Spanish ip range
[10:00] <ikonia> whoaaaa that's a big ban
[10:01] <Myrtti> yes, well, I was getting a bit frustrated with the HOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ALGUEN HABLA ESPANOL stuff
[10:01] <Myrtti> *blushÄ
[10:01] <ikonia> I think the network was.....
[10:31] <Myrtti> rvffathgak k-line?
[10:37] <jpds> tonyyarusso: Dude, you making mirrors with ubumirror?
[10:38] <tonyyarusso> jpds: That's correct.
[10:38]  * jpds hugs tonyyarusso.
[10:38]  * tonyyarusso hugs back
[10:38] <tonyyarusso> It appears to work rather nicely.
[10:39] <jpds> tonyyarusso: Do let us know if you have any problems with it, we're trying to get it into lucid.
[10:39] <tonyyarusso> Ooooh, nifty
[10:40] <tonyyarusso> jpds: My only gripe is that it would be kinda handy if it had a verbose mode that would give some sort of statement about how much data was to be downloaded, and ideally, a progress bar of such, similar to what apt-mirror does.  Normally it runs with cron, but occasionally I want to futz with it interactively and it'd be nice to have some idea how long it was going to take.
[10:40] <jpds> tonyyarusso: --stats?
[10:40] <tonyyarusso> As far as actual *problems*, I haven't noticed any yet, and I've been using it since November.
[10:42] <gnomefreak> Myrtti: did you get nptffqwm "so channel" as well as rvffathgak  assuming it was same issue? and she has a point were they/him k-lined?
[10:42] <tonyyarusso> jpds: Um, I don't think my copy has --stats...
[10:43] <tonyyarusso> perhaps I should update
[10:43] <Myrtti> gnomefreak: they hit -fi with the usual gnaa bull
[10:43] <jpds> tonyyarusso: No, rsync has a --stats option, wasn't sure if that was what you wanted.
[10:44] <tonyyarusso> jpds: oh.
[10:44] <gnomefreak> Myrtti: ah
[10:44] <Myrtti> or rather, latter did
[10:48] <tonyyarusso> jpds: Perhaps not quite that verbose, but sort of.
[10:48] <tonyyarusso> jpds: have you ever used apt-mirror?
[10:48] <jpds> tonyyarusso: No, I've only used rsync for mirrors.
[10:50] <tonyyarusso> jpds: Basically what it does is after calculating what needs to be updated it give a one-line message along the lines of "249 MB needs to be downloaded", and then shows a marker for each download thread it launches, the number of which is configurable.  So, if you set it to use 20 threads, you know it's getting close to done when the last thread launches.  That part ends up looking something like "[20]...[19]...[18]...[17]..."
[10:51] <Myrtti> opinions of aleanne82?
[10:51] <tonyyarusso> jpds: Basically all I want is a) How much data will be downloaded during this run?  b) Roughly what percentage of the way through that download am I currently?
[11:03] <Myrtti> phew. attention diverted
[11:03]  * Myrtti goes to get lunch
[11:06] <Myrtti> I have a feeling SolarisBoy is helping him a bit wrong, but I seriously need to eat
[11:16] <Myrtti> lcegfu [n=fqwdmpvp@c-24-4-139-99.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] ?
[11:16] <bazhang> yep
[11:55] <gnomefreak> who is freenode staff in here?
[11:55] <gnomefreak> and are you here ;)
[11:55] <gnomefreak> well i dont have names anymore so i guess it doesnt matter
[11:57] <niko> ?
[12:02] <jussi01> gnomefreak: niko is, whats up?
[12:02] <gnomefreak> jussi01: i got it handled thanks
[12:05] <gnomefreak> jussi01: niko i was getting things like :07:01:52:. ==> hsznf: No such nick/channel
[12:05] <gnomefreak> but i set ignore
[12:05] <jussi01> gnomefreak: yeah, everyone gets them
[12:05] <gnomefreak> jussi01: yeah found that out in #freenode
[12:06] <niko> gnomefreak: it's because your client tried to answer to ctcp request to someone who left the network
[12:06] <jussi01> gnomefreak: hopefully it should be fixed with the new ircd in a couple of days
[12:06] <jpds> jussi01: But what if it isn't?
[12:06] <gnomefreak> ircd hasnt been updated yet?
[12:06] <niko> there is channel mode +C to prevent channel ctcp
[12:06] <niko> gnomefreak: tomorrow
[12:06] <gnomefreak> niko: ah
[12:06] <jussi01> jpds: ask freenode staff... Im just going on what Ive been told ;)
[12:58] <ryanakca> Is it worthwile banning people like cvesvcti in #kubuntu-devel?
[13:17] <bazhang> ryanakca, seems not to be about, suspect it was part of bot attacks
[14:51] <bazhang> I'm guessing thats alteregoa (howling_mad)
[14:52] <Myrtti> whowhatwhere?
[14:52] <Myrtti> oh
[14:52] <Pici> bazhang: why?
[14:52] <bazhang> in offtopic
[14:53] <bazhang> Pici, the .ch also, fnords   moo cowfnord iirc was alteregoa's
[14:53] <Pici> is alteregoa banned?
[14:54] <bazhang> not that I know of, just acting nutty
[14:55] <MenZa> Pici: It's really the only way we can counter these things.
[14:55] <MenZa> Pici: The message in the topic should help people register.
[14:55] <Pici> MenZa: k
[14:55] <MenZa> Pici: We had the same issues yesterday, which got gradually worse.
[14:55] <MenZa> I'd rather not have that happen today
[14:56] <Myrtti> today is a total nuthouse
[14:56] <MenZa> I'm *hoping* we'll catch a break with the migration to seven
[14:56] <Pici> Myrtti: Did you ever finish those aliases?
[14:56] <Myrtti> Pici: no, I've been grunting the whole day
[14:56] <Myrtti> and the whole week
[14:56] <Pici> methinks we should get them posted on the planet
[14:56] <Myrtti> Pici: if you have any, go ahead
[14:57] <Myrtti> I can't concentrate on them, not with this
[14:57] <Pici> Myrtti: I'll try to do some, just been really busy at work
[14:57]  * MenZa feels bad for not getting anything done, despite not having other obligations :\
[15:03] <Myrtti> btw, don't feel bad for having the attacks. apparently some channels in the IRCnet have been overtaken by hostile people and they're holding the channels on ransom
[15:10] <tonyyarusso> is this one of those silly networks that doesn't have staff and registration and the like?
[15:10] <Myrtti> yup
[15:11] <Myrtti> it's the de facto standard in Finland, though...
[15:11] <tonyyarusso> :(
[15:12] <Tm_T> it's "the irc network" anyway
[15:13] <Tm_T> tonyyarusso: oh and IRCnet has staff, the people who maintain servers (:
[15:14] <Tm_T> that's totally different thing how organised they are
[15:18] <Myrtti> jpds: a bit quick
[15:38] <bazhang> ha
[15:38] <bazhang> haamzatova2 seems to be confused
[16:20] <tonyyarusso> Man, the lack of English skills yet insisting on using an English channel is making helping in #Ubuntu a lot harder than it used to be.
[16:32] <Pici> So... the migration is supposed to start at 730 UTC, so I probably won't be up.
[17:13] <Pici> ..
[17:13] <Pici> idot
[17:14]  * Pici is surprised that inviting the bot worked.
[17:16] <tsimpson> you're an admin anyway, you could just /msg ubottu join #ubuntu-ops
[17:16] <Pici> tsimpson: I know, but I did it without thinking.
[17:16] <Pici> gogogadget IRC autopilot
[17:16] <genii> Bah. After the netsplit more CTCP crapola
[17:17] <tsimpson> actually, supybot.alwaysJoinOnInvite is False, so I don't know _why_ it worked
[17:18] <Pici> Maybe it knew I was an admin and thats why it joined?
[17:18] <tsimpson> and there was no netsplit I could see
[17:19] <genii> tsimpson: Yeah that was weird. FloodBotK2 announced one though. Right after that I started getting more random-name CTCP. One got K-lined, I think the other 3-5 left
[17:20] <tsimpson> oddness
[18:14]  * genii sips more coffee
[18:15] <genii> The K-Lines seem to be pretty quick
[18:27] <jpds> I like the way some of them quit with the word [Success].
[18:30] <Myrtti> heh
[18:32] <Myrtti> oh man
[18:33] <Myrtti> I bought, or actually, Dunk bought, a seat cushion for my office chair. firm foam wedge, with nonslip bottom
[18:33] <jussi01> Just a FYI, soon we shall be launching the #ubuntu-irc-helpers channel - you are all welcome to join and check it out.
[18:33] <Myrtti> I can't remember when I've last sat this comfortably
[18:33] <jussi01> Myrtti: hehe, nice :)
[18:34] <Myrtti> yeah, perhaps I can regain my functionality in the mornings a bit faster in the future, instead of spending 2-7 hours cursing
[18:58] <Myrtti> hmmm
[18:59] <Myrtti> oh.
[18:59] <Myrtti> [20:58] CSMUTE     /^msg chanserv op $C $N;/wait 2000;/mode +q $0;/^msg  chanserv op $C -$N
[18:59] <Myrtti> my aliases already have that
[19:00] <Pici> mine too
[19:02] <Tm_T> I have only identify, op and remove aliases
[19:03] <Myrtti> so does /msg nickserv identify still work as normal?
[19:03] <Pici> It should.
[19:03] <Tm_T> apparently
[19:03] <Pici> We aren't changing services, just the ircd.
[19:03] <Tm_T> so apparently only there's some additions
[19:03] <Tm_T> for example this cap
[19:04] <Tm_T> and I think some of cap commands would make sense to have aliases
[19:50] <Mamarok> maco: Nightrose is not Amarok lead, she is the Release Manager, the lead developer is markey
[19:50] <maco> Mamarok: thanks
[19:50] <Mamarok> (says the Amarok bug fairy)
[19:50] <maco> :)
[19:50] <Tm_T> ?
[19:51] <Myrtti> what is Gadget3000 up to...?
[19:51] <ikonia> he's gone
[19:51] <ikonia> he refuses to respond in pm to what he was doing and keeps doing it
[19:53] <genii> ikonia: Yeah that was weird. Like +OK  followed by something hash-looking
[19:53] <ikonia> responding now
[19:54] <ikonia> seems to be a harmless mistake, but lets keep an eye open
[20:45] <Myrtti> tomorrow night is exactly when?
[20:45] <Myrtti> ;-)
[20:45] <Pricey> Myrtti: I think the blog has more exact details
[20:45] <jpds> Myrtti: 7AM.
[20:46] <Pici> 730 utc
[20:46] <Myrtti> ur so funny
[20:46] <Pici> no u?
[20:47] <Myrtti> ♥
[20:48] <Pici> interesting
[20:51] <genii> Maybe someone can keep an eye on smokeee in #k or #k-ot , i have to work
[21:16] <genii> Man. It must be that moon-mars thing this week
[21:17] <Mamarok> moon-mars?
[21:17] <genii> Mamarok: Yeah, lemme find some link
[21:17] <Mamarok> full moon tomorrow I knew about, but even worse?
[21:18] <genii> Mamarok: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20100128/tsc-mars-and-moon-in-heavenly-show-4b158bc.html   I'm not sure if it's some conjunction
[21:20] <Mamarok> oh my, the week already started with some wild kiddies, what do we have to fear now?
[21:20] <genii> Hehehe
[21:20] <Mamarok> but Mars looks really great: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/1001/mars_opposition_2010.jpg
[21:20] <Mamarok> it's in opposition to the Sun
[21:39] <betz> greetings
[21:39] <mneptok> betz: how can we help
[21:40] <betz> i just wanted to join the ubuntu channel, and i get a 'you are banned message'
[21:40] <mneptok> @login
[21:40] <betz> i am new to ubuntu, maybe joined twice the channel last year, so i really dont knwo why i should be banned
[21:40] <mneptok> betz: give me a moment
[21:41] <betz> i had an incident with the freenode server few days ago because i clicked a spam link on the drupal channel which got me blocked on the freenode servers, but i got access again after mailing the freenode staff
[21:41] <betz> maybe it has to do something with that
[21:42] <betz> mneptok: ok, thanks
[21:43] <mneptok> betz: your IP address was used to spam a malicious URL to #ubuntu
[21:43] <Myrtti> just a quick check - the migration happens at 0730 utc or 1930 utc?
[21:44] <mneptok> betz: is this a connection you share with others? (e.g. university or company uplink)
[21:44] <betz> yeah, that was the samp link i clicked,firefox opened and fired all windows and error messages which i didn't understand anything of
[21:44] <betz> but really i'm a fair person
[21:45] <mneptok> betz: welp, your machine got hijacked because you decided to click random URLs from unknown users.
[21:45] <betz> mneptok: can it be undone? i dont see anything wrong now,
[21:46] <betz> is it still sending malicious links?
[21:46] <mneptok> betz: spend the weekend repeating the "I will not click random URLs on IRC, e-mail, or other mediums" mantra, and return next week when you have learned that frantically clicking anything you are told to click is not a good idea, security-wise. ;)
[21:46] <betz> really? :)
[21:46] <mneptok> really.
[21:47] <betz> ok
[21:47] <mneptok> being judicious about opening URLs is like Item 1 in the "How to stay safe on the Internet" list.
[21:47] <mneptok> now you know why.
[21:47] <betz> but it was a really nasty link, it was written like it was from the freenode staff itself :(
[21:48] <mneptok> at least it wasn't an Uzbekistani credit card hacker that stole your identity.
[21:48] <betz> lucky i dont have a credit card :)
[21:49] <mneptok> would Freenode staff direct you to peoplesprimary.com to get information about a malicious site?
[21:49] <mneptok> think about it.
[21:49] <betz> auch
[21:50] <mneptok> "Hi! You eBay account is of the needing to be updating. To runs an updates, please to be of the visiting http://ebay.codefreaks.idtheft.ru"
[21:50] <mneptok> seems legit to you?
[21:50] <betz> is there another ubuntu channel somewhere then?
[21:50] <betz> no :)
[21:50] <mneptok> there ya go :)
[21:51] <mneptok> all official Ubuntu channels are on Freenode.
[21:51] <jpds> Myrtti: 7AM.
[21:51] <kloeri_> 7:30UTC
[21:51] <mneptok> betz: make it 24h, OK?
[21:51] <Myrtti> jpds: the globnote saaid night...
[21:52] <betz> mneptok: ok
[21:52] <jpds> Myrtti: Then poke Md with a stick.
[21:52] <kloeri_> it's going to be plenty hard to get up that early, no reason to make it worse by moving it 30 minutes earlier :)
[21:52] <mneptok> betz: great
[21:52]  * mneptok goes to run some errands
[21:52] <Myrtti> I assume other staff members are
[21:59] <jpds> Myrtti: Md's probably in another TZ and it's 0300 for him or something?
[22:01] <genii> OK, time to get home :)
[22:59] <ikonia> no powahhh in #kubuntu-offtopic
[22:59] <ikonia> he's just been banned from #kubuntu and is calling people fags and posting 4chan links
[23:03] <ikonia> anyone with #kubuntu-offtopic grunt awake yet ?
[23:07] <Seeker`> ikonia: prod a staff member?
[23:07] <ikonia> not quite at that state yet
[23:09] <ikonia> tedious
[23:09] <ikonia> staff are on fire tonight, very quick
[23:10] <kloeri_> don't set me on fire :(
[23:10] <ikonia> you're all on quick form
[23:10] <Seeker`> mmm, smouldering staff
[23:10] <kloeri_> we've been training for the last couple weeks :)
[23:10] <ikonia> yes, you've had some solid practice
[23:14] <ikonia> nalioth: thank you
[23:21] <highvoltage> FINE I"M USING IRSSI!!!
[23:22] <ikonia> ???
[23:23] <ikonia> !staff | xlquhnood attacking
[23:23] <ikonia> (I know you guys are awake)
[23:24] <niko> gone, i guess
