Picihrm.. how do people feel about mteck's use of the term 'ricer' ?01:25
h00kIt...could offend, definitely.01:37
h00kIt's based off stereotypes.01:37
IdleOnePici: the term ricer is racist in origin. I don't like it02:16
IdleOneand he will probably tell you it is a term that is used for people who modify there little Japanese cars a la fast and furious.02:19
ubottuFloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (flood (16))03:27

ubottuIn #ubuntu, tarzeau said: ubottu: dpi is dots per inch14:07
IdleOneubottu: forget dpi14:07
ubottuIn #ubuntu-ops, IdleOne said: ubottu: forget dpi14:07
IdleOnehmm ok14:08
bazhangnothing to forget14:08
IdleOneI know hat I said!14:08
IdleOnewhat*14:08
IdleOnebazhang: yeah, ubottu doesn't just remember everything.14:09
PiciIdleOne: Only operators can make factoid edits, everyone else who says "foo is bar" to ubottu gets posted here.14:09
bazhangIdleOne, as tarzeau has no rights, nothing was made in re factoids14:09
IdleOnePici: so if I edit a factoid it is committed right away?14:09
IdleOnelol the edit gets to share a room with me at the asylum14:10
PiciIdleOne: Yes, and ubottu won't announce anything here.14:10
nhandlerIdleOne: That is assuming you have done @login14:11
IdleOnegood to know. Wouldn't want to accidentally add nonsense to the bot14:11
IdleOnenhandler: I do14:11
IdleOneand have14:11
bazhangmore nonsense you mean14:12
IdleOneyeah14:12
h00kI think ubottu should have a spam factoid14:13
IdleOneh00k: something like Spam is great with mustard and onions?14:13
jussi!SPAM14:14
h00kor, It 'isn't welcome here, don't do it'14:14
jussiaww14:14
h00kor something nice :)14:14
txwikingermorning14:14
h00kalso, we could have onions and mustard, too14:14
bazhangusually a warning if its not really bad, or a remove if it is14:15
jussisomething abour SPAM SPAM SPAM, ie. monty python style14:15
h00kI know, but it could save typing14:15
nhandlerA warning from a human is a lot more effective than from a bot imo.14:16
nhandlerEven if that warning is simply an alias set in the IRC client14:16
h00kokay dokey14:16
IdleOneSPAM is Stupid Posts About Maartauhararugqhr14:16
IdleOneshould have the spammer searching for at least ten minutes14:17
IdleOneheh14:17
txwikingerif you have spam, do you have ham as well? ;)14:18

h00kflip a coin!14:23
IdleOnegoing in to work but 1.5 hours late14:24
IdleOnegoing to blame the public transportation system and irc14:25
txwikingerworking from home has also its disadvantages14:25
IdleOnetxwikinger: I'm sure it does, requires some discipline I am sure14:25
txwikingeryes.. a whole lot of it14:25
IdleOnewhich I have shown to have none14:25
IdleOne:/14:26
txwikingerand telling off family member that think you are just lurking around14:26
IdleOnewell my family knows better then to say anything to me about my work habits/ethics14:27
txwikingerNo.. they will disturb you with their stuff at any time, because for them you are available and not at work14:27
IdleOnethey do that anyway lol14:28
IdleOnemain reason why I don't have a cell phone14:29
IdleOneor want one14:29

gordi work from home, i basically spend 9 hours a day sitting in a room on my own, its not as fun as it sounds14:31
* txwikinger works partially at home and partially at his clients' places14:32
IdleOnegord: I think a part time home/office situation would be best for me.14:34
IdleOne2-3 days at home and a couple days at the office14:35

PiciAnyone around to give me some help in #ubuntu-irc ?15:53
ikoniasure15:53
PiciI need to run to a meeting myself in a few minutes and this is giving me a headache15:53
ikoniawhat's up15:54
ikoniano problem15:54
Piciikonia: just some guy going on about how irc.ubuntu.com shouldn't exist15:54
ikoniano problem15:54
Piciikonia: thanks :)15:54
Piciyeesh, that discussion in -irc is still happening?16:54
* persia suspects it will continue until Kangaroo either edits the wiki or gives up16:55
Tm_Tcould you explain it to me in one sentence, please?16:55
jpdspersia: Or both!16:55
PiciTm_T: irc.ubuntu.com points to chat.freenode net16:56
persiaKangaroo worries that people might be confused by the difference between irc.ubuntu.com and irc.freenode.com, and that it's really chat.freenode.com and wants to change all the clients in all supported releases to use one magic solution that uses no CNAMES and has no confusion.16:56
persiaOh, and everyone else thinks this is pointless.16:56
charlie-tcaKangaroo seems to be young and hyper-active16:57
Tm_TPici: hey, you did figure it out!16:58
* Tm_T hides16:58
PiciTm_T: Yeah, I started this conversation with him over an hour ago.16:58
Tm_Tpersia: also, it's freenode.net and not freenode.com16:58
persiaRight.  Apologies.16:58
Tm_Tnp16:58
tsimpsonirc.freenode.com is an alias for chat.freenode.net :)16:58
* charlie-tca is glad Kangaroo moved from xubuntu for his arguments16:58
tsimpsonmore cnames, the world will now implode16:59
persiaIndeed.  That's another bug :)16:59
Tm_Ttsimpson: we need irc.examplenode.tld dns to point to freenode16:59
Tm_T...if possible16:59
* persia enjoys the feee dead beef cafe16:59
* tsimpson wonders how many words you can spell out in ipv617:00
* jpds wonders which "2 servers" he's referring too.17:01
tsimpsonthe two "severs" are irc.ubuntu.com and irc.freenode.net17:02
persiaSo, apologies for my firm tone in -irc.  No offense to anyone intended.17:12
jussisooo...17:32
jussiIMHO, who cares? why not just tell him "its a wiki, go edit it?"17:33
jpdsjussi: We did.17:33
jussioh. ok then :)17:33
jussiI didnt read... was too much bla bla bla... :P17:34
charlie-tcaheh17:34
Picijussi: he wanted to have all the irc programs in Ubuntu change as well.17:35
jussidont they already point to irc.ubuntu.com?17:35
PiciYes.17:35
jussilol17:35
PiciBut thats confusing according to him, blah blah blah17:36
jussiI think the guy just wanted someone to talk to...17:36

ikoniadelac: ok, lets take a look20:37
delacikonia: yes, please20:38
Picidelac: You are using freenode's webchat, so you are forwarded to #ubuntu-proxy-users.  I just happened to clean out the exception list that we use for that, so you'll need to part that channel and rejoin #ubuntu and follow the directions that you are given in the -proxy-users channel.20:38
ikoniaPici: ahh, pici, well spotted, thank you20:38
delacikonia: ok20:38
