rwwHola. ConcreteRose has been in and out of #ubuntu a couple of times over the last hour spouting gibberish. Might be worth keeping an eye out for him.01:09
elkyfunkyHat, the content is touchy on more than just the "mocking kiddie prons" level. what they describe is being genuinely proposed in places. Here in .au for example01:38
IdleOnefunkyHat: child porn is not something to be joked about. imho01:40
IdleOneclean content or not01:40
funkyHatIdleOne: that wasn't the subject of the joke, but I agree01:40
elkyIdleOne, you need to watch the vid to understand01:40
IdleOnelink me in private please. we don't need it logged01:41
IdleOnethank you01:41
* funkyHat facepalms01:43
txwikingernhandler: how do I get to be OP in ##fix_your_connection ?01:44
IdleOnefunkyHat: you should be face palming lol01:45
* funkyHat stabs putty repeatedly01:45
IdleOneumm well the site/video itself is not bad in any way except for the filtering and blocking websites thing that I don't agree with01:45
IdleOneI think we need more education and less policing01:46
IdleOnejust my 2.5 cents01:46
funkyHatIdleOne: it's a spoof01:47
elkyIdleOne, ok, so in places where these blocking lists are being proposed, the response to criticism from the powerhungry pollies trying to set them up is "You are a supporter of kiddie prons"01:47
IdleOneelky: well that is a stretch of logic01:48
IdleOneheh01:48
IdleOnebut yeah of course anytime someone disagrees they are going to go to extremes01:48
funkyHatYeah, I think I should have said something at the time01:49
funkyHat(and not pasted it all over the channel just now -_-)01:49
IdleOneI don't think the Gov in Canada should of raised registration fees on motorcyles, that means I support biker gangs!01:50
funkyHatirssi normally questions me if I accidentally paste a whole load of crap :(01:50
IdleOnefunkyHat: fail for rellying on app to save you :P01:50
funkyHatIdleOne: I wasn't :( I don't normally use putty01:51
funkyHatAccidentally highlighted and it has weird mouse button actions01:51
IdleOneehh it happens01:51
funkyHatI've changed them now01:51
IdleOneI did something similar with a convo from #ubuntu-women (not logged) to #ubuntu-women-project (logged) :(01:52
funkyHatoops01:53
IdleOneyeah01:53
IdleOneohh with sound the video makes more sense01:53
IdleOneI understand the spoof now01:54
IdleOnenot sure about ConcreteRose and if they are a troll02:00
IdleOnebut I think so02:00
IdleOnecan someone keep an eye on ConcreteRose. I need to run out to the store02:02
txwikingerIdleOne: I can.. but I am not an op in the channel02:03

IdleOnejust now?05:02
mneptok20:27 <+IdleOne> Pici: guess HE understood lol05:02
IdleOneoh yeah but I didn't use just lol05:02
* IdleOne curtails his use of lol 05:03
mneptokIMO, using "lol" and "roflmao" and such in -ops is like farting in church05:03
mneptok;)05:03
IdleOnefunny!05:03
IdleOnelots of times it's the preist himself05:04
* mneptok is teasing. well ... kinda.05:04
IdleOne priest05:04
pleia2mneptok: lol05:06
pleia2(just sayin')05:06
IdleOnethank you pleia205:07
IdleOneU rock!05:07
IdleOnehah05:07
IdleOnesee what I did there mneptok05:07
mneptokhcilshitjf05:10
elkyexceptions permitted for mocking lollersk8z and roflcopters?05:10
mneptok(holy crap i'm laughing so hard i totally just farted)05:10
elkyum ah, you swore05:11
IdleOnethat has to be just as bad as using lol05:12
IdleOneactually twice05:12
IdleOneheh05:12
IdleOnehcilshitjf05:13
mneptokhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQ7QmLd2eVg05:20
mneptokmy colleague an i try to work the "ITJF" acronym into slides at conferences :)05:21
mneptok*and05:21
elkyif you have to try, then you're choosing the wrong topics :P05:22
elkyjust pick a topic that lets you depict unruly users or something.05:23
mneptokthe trick is to incorporate it meaningfully into the actual topic05:24
mneptok* Immediate drop-in replacement for MySQL05:25
mneptok* Thread pools added in MariaDB 5.105:25
mneptok* Join selects supported in 5.205:25
mneptok* Free Software, GPLv205:26
mneptok;)05:26
elkyI'm pretty sure I could get it in any of those topics.05:26
mneptoklook at the bullet points. ;)05:26
elkyah, heh05:27
elkyyou're going way too subtle05:27
mneptokOK, off to bed, then flying tomorrow for 10 days in the Dominican Republic. i'll be (mostly) unavailable.05:36
mneptokenjoy (ahem) release day05:37
mneptok:/05:37
IdleOnemneptok: have a good trip05:48
Tm_TK'day07:38
elkyooh, it looks like google fixed their apt repo. it doesn't take half a day to get headers anymore12:23
funkyHatGiving google root access on my box is something I'm just not quite comfortable enough with12:25
Mamarokroot access? I don't think you give it root access by dowloading stuff...12:27
Mamarokthe traffic is in one direction only12:27
funkyHatMamarok: deb packages can run stuff as root during installation12:27
Mamarokwell, then only download the stuff and install offline12:29
persiaRather, packages *do* run stuff as root during installtion.  It's not just "can"12:30
funkyHatpersia: no, it is *can*. dpkg runs as root, but packages can also provde preinst and postinst scripts if they need to12:31
persiaMamarok: How does that help?  To give an extreme example, consider that I package a forkbomb, and you download forkbomb.deb, and then disconnect, and then install, and your system goes down.12:31
funkyHatIf they aren't there the package contents are just extracted to the filesystem12:31
persiafunkyHat: It's a very rare package that has no maintainer scripts these days, due to wide adoption of debhelper.12:31
persiaBut yeah, there are exceptions.12:32
Mamarokpersia: well, don't use sources you don't trust then12:32
persiaMamarok: I believe that was the original point :)12:32
funkyHatMamarok: which was the point I was making :)12:32
funkyHatAm I right in thinking the deb for chrome that you download actually adds itself to your sources list too?12:34
funkyHatI can understand the reason to do that from a usability perspective, but it still seems intrusive12:35
Mamarokwell, I would use the Chromium daily PPA instead, to start with, that gets you code from Launchpad only, and I hope the PPA maintainer knows what s/he is doing12:40
funkyHatYes that's what I use12:41
h00kmornin'15:11
IdleOnemorning h00k15:11
marienzHi! a3li just spotted http:/ircanswers.com/, which is (at least partially) logging #ubuntu. Is this a service you opted in to?16:26
IdleOnemarienz: not that I know of16:33
marienzIdleOne: that's what I thought. We'll probably be klining it in the near future.16:33
IdleOnebut #ubuntu is publicly logged so I don't see any harm16:34
IdleOnemarienz: might want to ask a IRCC member16:34
IdleOnePici: ^^^16:34
marienzit's logging a little more than just #ubuntu, it's not obviously identifiable as a logbot, and I don't think it asked for permission in any of the channels it logs.16:35
IdleOnefreenode afaik is free to allow access to who/what it choses :)16:36
IdleOneso I guess the final decision lies and you and Staff16:36
jussimarienz: thanks for the heads up, we will have a look into it.16:36
IdleOnes/and/on16:36
jussimarienz: and, no, we havent opted into anything except our own and  irseek iirc.16:40
jussiMind, the very fact that those are public, makes it somewhat a moot point, as they could just pull from said pulic logs.16:40
marienzsure, but I still would've liked them to ask for permission before putting that bot in here17:17
IdleOnethis channel was also logged?17:17
marienzunless your guidelines mention other logbots are welcome (I didn't check)17:18
IdleOnethen it was surely not approved17:18
marienzit was logging about 36 channels17:18
marienzerr, no, not #ubuntu-ops :)17:18
* marienz is confusing17:19
IdleOneWell jussi is on the job now. I am sure he will get back to you with info asap17:19
marienzI've klined the bot and emailed them, asking them to make it easier to identify as a logbot and to check if it's welcome in the channels it logs.17:20
IdleOnemarienz: take a look at nestea while you are here17:21
IdleOneoh never mind17:21
jussimarienz: if its is truly a l log bot, then we are op out of it.17:51
jussimarienz: what was the bots name?17:51
marienzjussi: emptyness47 [~emptyness@207-126-122-147.ip.openhosting.com] has quit [K-Lined]17:54
marienzthat resolves to the same ip address ircanswers.com resolves to17:55
jussimarienz: ahh, excellent. thanks a lot.17:55
marienzwe'll try to keep it klined until it changes its nick to be easier identifiable and its owner confirms with channel ops that it's welcome17:56
jussimarienz: ok. please let me know of any updates.18:00
marienzwill do18:01
marienzjussi: #gentoo emailed them to get their content removed from the site, and that was responded to quickly. So if you want the existing content gone you could try that.18:01
marienz(he hasn't gotten back to me yet, but I mailed them a while after they did)18:01
jussimarienz: Ill talk about it with the rest of the irc council.18:03
marienzwe may end up requesting they do that for everything they've logged that isn't ok'd.18:04
jussimarienz: yeah, that might be nice.18:04

IdleOnelater18:24
topyliIdleOne, bot stuff does not follow operator privileges, it's a separate thing18:25
topyliwe just discussed this with the council, it's a bit complicated :)18:25
IdleOnetopyli: thanks for the info :)18:28
topylimaybe one day we'll learn to design things from the beginning so that they integrate well :)18:28
IdleOnetopyli: well the edit gets a +1 from me. well written and easy to understand18:28
IdleOneI mean the link it leads to18:28
topyliyeah18:28
IdleOnetopyli: good design from the start is something that would make us obsolete18:29
topyliwoohoo! design ftw18:30
