Tm_Tindeed08:19
phixwtf, I am banned from #ubuntu? when did this happen?08:39
Flannelphix: 2.5 weeks ago it looks like08:41
Flannel(Jan 10)08:41
phixummmm, that can't be right, I mean I was let back in, I didn't do anything else to deserve a ban08:44
Flannelphix: From the log, you were being rather rude08:45
Flanneland offtopic and random08:47
phixyea but I got unbanned for that, but now I am banned again08:47
Flannelphix: When were you unbanned for that?08:48
phix*shrugs* I just noticed now I have been re-banned08:49
phixTo make your jobs easier you should just put a perm unban on me, that will save you guys alot of time08:49
Flannelphix: You weren't rebanned, because you were never unbanned08:49
phixhmmmm08:50
phixI never even new I was banned to begin with08:50
phixknew even08:50
phixany way, can some one unban me?08:50
phixthat would be super08:50
Flannelphix: Not with an attitude like that, no.08:50
phixoh08:51
phixyou want some respect?08:51
phixI have alot of that if you need some08:52
phixany way, be a pal and unban, kthnxbi08:54
Flannelphix: No.  This isn't the first time this has been covered with you, and I'm not comfortable unbanning you, because you have once again showed no respect for the policies of #ubuntu.08:55
phix:/08:56
phixpersonailit conflicts are against ubuntu policies?08:57
phixs/t/ty/08:57
Flannelphix: Being offtopic and especially rude is against policy.08:57
phixI mean some of your ops are complete ummmm, hmmmm, what word best describes, well Ljl in partiular, hmmmm08:58
phixok08:58
phixok fine, then why am I still banned in ubuntu-offtopic then?08:58
phixhow can I be so offtopic that it doesn't even fit in that channel?08:58
Flannelphix: Because there's no reason to unban you from #ubuntu-offtopic08:58
phixthere isn't?08:59
phixI mean if I am speaking offtopic too much then #ubuntu-offtopic should be the first channel I am unbanned from08:59
Flannelphix: You were banned from both once upon a time, we let you back into #ubuntu, and you couldn't follow the policies of that channel.  Why would we let you back into a channel where it's even more likely you'll be inappropriate?09:00
phixhow can I be inappropriate in a channel that is marked as offtopic?09:00
phixhow offtopic can I be before it is considered too offtopic?09:00
phixand is there such thing as too offtopic?09:00
Flannelphix: "Offtopic" doesn't mean anything-goes.09:00
phixisn't that in itself just offtopic09:01
Flannelphix: No.09:01
phixI think I need to start another ubuntu channel09:01
Flannelphix: But, it's not really important for you to understand #ubuntu-offtopic, since you won't be there anytime in the near future.09:01
phixbut that is a side note09:01
phixhmmm09:02
phixso in otherwords I can just go and fuck myself/09:02
phix?09:02
mneptok!o4o09:02
ubottuSome topics are controversial and often end in negativity. Take care on subjects like war, race, religion, politics, gender, sexuality, drugs, potentially illegal activities and suicide. The topics are not banned; stating your position is ok, but trolling, baiting, hostility or repetition are not. If you are asked to stop, do so politely. Disputes to !appeals, please adhere to !Freenode Policy and the !CodeOfConduct09:02
Flannelphix: You won't be let back into either of those channels tonight.09:02
phixok09:02
phixhmmm09:03
phixpl09:03
phixok even09:03
Flannelphix: Is there anything else we can help you with tonight?09:04
phixyes09:04
phixthere is09:04
phixnow you mention it09:04
phixHow does one apply for op status?09:05
phixin Ubuntu and associated channels?09:06
mneptoka good start is to stop behaviors that get you banned, and to discuss band in a way that results in being unbanned. "kthxbai" and such are probably not the best tactic in that regard.09:07
mneptok*bans09:07
phixhmmm09:07
mneptokIOW, learn to walk before you try to run.09:07
phixnote taken09:07
phixI Just think #ubuntu needs some policy changes, an being an op would give me some leverage hey09:08
Flannelphix: Actually, being an operator has nothing to do with that.  If you think there's some changes that need to be made, you're free to make the suggestions.09:09
phixawesome09:09
ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from Neon0Blue)09:09
phixnice09:10
phixwhat does that all mean ubottu ?09:10
Flannelphix: Did you have a suggestion to make right now then? or just in the future?09:10
phixoh09:11
phixummm, let me see09:11
Flannelphix: If not, it's no big deal.  Come back when you do.09:11
phixok, I will sleep on it and get back to you tomorrow09:11
phixwhen are you usually on here?09:12
phixaround this time? or just on Sat / Sunday's?09:12
Flannelphix: don't worry about that.  Most of us read scrollback to keep up09:13
phixok great09:13
phixthat is all09:13
phix*AFK*09:13
Flannelphix: Please part this channel if you're finished for now09:14
phixoh09:16
phixreally? I can't just wait here?09:16
mneptok /topic09:16
phixI Would like to see channel history too09:16

phixas in bazaar version control?09:20
phixany way, I wont idle any more09:21
phixcyas later, looking forward to coming into a #ubuntu channel some time tomorrow09:21
FlannelI sometimes wonder if the words I say have different meanings that I'm not aware of09:25
mneptokFlannel: you can use IMAP, or and Exchange connector to allow that type of sync with a mobile device.09:29
Flannelmneptok: erm....uh...09:29
persiaThere's a lot of arguments for POP1 as well, although there probably aren't any complete implemetnations extant.09:31

jussi01ircc meeting in #ubuntu-meeting now18:05
Myrttiwhat has been decided so far?19:07
Myrttianyone?19:08
jpdsNot a lot.19:09
PiciMyrtti: doing a trial of allowing idlers here was voted on, we're at -1 so far, waiting for nhandler_ and tsimpson to vote though, but they're not present.19:09
Myrttiok19:10
* Myrtti goes for the log to see who voted what so far19:10
Tm_Tand we agreed to be nice, err, that's all19:10
Tm_Tone hour for a meeting is not enough19:10
topyliit would be plenty if we had less history lessons and made more decisions19:14
topyli:)19:14
Tm_Ttopyli: like our -fi meetings? (;19:14
topylii really enjoyed the last one! any news from xyzzy-team? no? moving on. any issues from... :)19:15
Tm_T...or the >2 hour meetings :-P19:16
* Tm_T hugs everyone19:19
Tm_T...GROAAAARGH!! ):19:19
MamarokTm_T: come on, be nice!19:20
Tm_Tyeah, hugging veryone is not nice19:21
MamarokI said that more because of that horrible groan19:21
Tm_TI'm still lacking that sleep (:19:23
Amaranthwait, why do you need all 5 to vote on something?19:41
Tm_TAmaranth: because there's no majority in one side19:41
Tm_Tif all 3 would have voted similarly...19:41
AmaranthGuess they should have showed up then19:42
AmaranthIn traditional voting bodies if you don't show up you don't get a vote19:42
Amaranthhrm, I think I'm not here anymore19:42
Tm_TAmaranth: they will provide their vote when they are online19:42
Tm_T):19:42
AmaranthInternet fail.19:44
AmaranthTm_T: That doesn't make sense, in a traditional voting system if you don't show up you don't get a vote.19:46
Tm_Tdunno19:47
Tm_TAmaranth: in traditional voting system, you have voting time, from 1 second to several months, this time it's between those two I guess19:47
nickspoonLaunchpad keeps pestering me about my membership to irc-ubuntu-offtopic-ops :(20:03
Tm_Tnickspoon: give 'em a hug20:03
* nickspoon hugs Launchpad20:04
guntbertI seem to remember that ubottu would honor the last part of "!info grub | whoever that will help you" by saying "whoever: that will help you: grub is the.....", now the sentence after the nick is cut off20:18
Tm_T!grub | guntbert see this20:19
ubottuguntbert see this: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.20:19
Tm_T!info grub | guntbert see this20:19
ubottuguntbert: grub (source: grub): GRand Unified Bootloader. In component main, is optional. Version 0.97-29ubuntu59 (karmic), package size 396 kB, installed size 924 kB (Only available for i386 kfreebsd-i386 hurd-i386 amd64 kfreebsd-amd64 lpia all)20:19
Tm_TI have never seen it working otherwise20:19
Tm_Tbut hmmmm20:19
guntbertTm_T: then I misremember - but it would be "a nice thing to have" :-)20:20
Tm_Tguntbert: agreed on that, if there's no technical limitations20:20
guntbertTm_T: of course :)20:21
Tm_Tshame I don't know why/how it works that way now20:21
guntbertTm_T: not everyone *can* know...20:22
Tm_TI should know everything (;)20:22
Myrttithe possibilty of being able to direct the info factoids is a quite recent hack, actually20:22
Myrtti(the !info factoids, that is)20:23
guntbertTm_T: ah - I forgot that :)20:23
Tm_TMyrtti: ah, good to know20:23
guntbertMyrtti: thanks for bringin my memory up to speed - so that was the improvement I remembered20:23
guntbertso I'll be on my way before demanding ever more  :-) have a nice time20:25
Tm_Tguntbert: thanks and welcome back20:25
guntbertTm_T: :)20:26
Amaranth'recent'20:55
MyrttiI must have slipped through the rabbit hole... some of the discussion on IRC are somewhat strange atm21:37
Flannel:P21:37
knomeMyrtti, congrats21:38
Tm_Tsome? not all?21:41
ubottublakkheim called the ops in #ubuntu ()21:41
