| android | I wish there was quassel for this phone, but this client isnt too bad... | 10:53 |
| gord | using andchat? that works pretty well | 11:05 |
| android | Gord yup. | 11:10 |
| android | Gord still havent figured out tab complete on it yet though... | 11:11 |
| gord | android, erm, you start typing someone's name, it adds the peoples names in the chat to the global dictionary autocomplete thing | 11:12 |
| elky | android, you should have a 'tab' key on the virtual keyboard at least iirc | 11:16 |
| elky | Hrm, You know what's sad? When you can look at the IP of the ban ubottu is reminding you about, and you know exactly who and where. | 11:17 |
| android | Virtual keyboard pish | 11:17 |
| android | elky: ahh found it | 11:18 |
| elky | android, yeah, you have to tap shift or ctrl or something to get the other half of the useful keyboardness | 11:18 |
| android | Its the search key that acts like a tab key | 11:18 |
| elky | that's weird. maybe they changed the keyboard between v1.6 and vWhatever | 11:19 |
| android | Perhaps... | 11:19 |
| elky | or i'm thinking of the linux virt keyboard on these craptastic kludgy tablet things | 11:20 |
| android | Lol, maybe | 11:20 |
| * elky loads up the handy one to check | 11:20 | |
| android | Mind, im loving this milestone, just awesome | 11:21 |
| * jpds wonders if android is paranoid. | 11:21 | |
| elky | there's apparently an app called parandroid | 11:21 |

| jussi | morning rgreening | 13:00 |
| knome | hey jussi | 13:02 |
| IdleOne | sometimes I wish we could just remote desktop and fix users issues for/with them | 14:22 |
| bazhang | hah | 14:22 |
| knome | o'rly ... | 14:22 |
| bazhang | is vikas for real? | 14:23 |
| knome | probably | 14:23 |
| knome | i once told an american guy how to edit a text file | 14:23 |
| knome | took me 6 hours to go through | 14:23 |
| bazhang | he has pastespammed multiple channels multiple times | 14:23 |
| knome | well, once he learns how to use pastebin, i think it's gonna be fine | 14:23 |
| tsimpson | just a fyi, I've put "compbot" in #ubuntu and #kubuntu to test some supybot memory usage | 14:25 |
| bazhang | thanks! | 14:25 |
| tsimpson | it should be silent and not interfere with ubottu | 14:25 |
| * IdleOne refrains from abusing compbot | 14:28 | |
| IdleOne | knome: you experiencing diffculty getting your suggestions implemented by a user also? | 14:29 |
| bazhang | wow nasty hostname | 14:30 |
| knome | IdleOne, of course ;) | 14:30 |
| IdleOne | at work we use pcanywhere user calls " I can't do this!" I connect and do it. WOW your a genius! | 14:30 |
| knome | yeah | 14:30 |
| IdleOne | user doesn't learn anything but then again they aren't meant to | 14:30 |
| knome | guess why i have three vnc bookmarks for the pc's of my family | 14:31 |
| IdleOne | company does not want the user to learn, they just want us to fix the issue and let them go back to selling hammers and screws or whatever heh | 14:31 |
| knome | true | 14:31 |
| knome | why would they want to use time+money to educate their employees | 14:32 |
| knome | if it's not defined in the law | 14:32 |
| jussi | lol | 14:32 |
| IdleOne | well we do tech support for hardware stores | 14:32 |
| IdleOne | the company doesn't need IT experts selling hardware | 14:33 |
| IdleOne | heh | 14:33 |
| IdleOne | guess that is why I have a job | 14:33 |
| knome | ;] | 14:33 |
| jussi | Just FYI: We are gradually moving bot requests over to #ubuntu-bots-team, so if directing people please point to there. We will still take requests in #ubuntu-irc, but eventually we would like all requests to go to -bots-team. | 14:39 |
| jussi | and for all of you who missed it: http://tsimpson.ubottu.com/blog/archives/7 | 14:39 |
| maco | bazhang: shmatak looks problematic | 14:46 |
| maco | 1. the ident is "holyshit" | 14:46 |
| maco | 2. "pederasi" sounds to me like "pederast" which means "pedophile" | 14:46 |
| bazhang | maco, check the mafioaa87 one | 14:46 |
| maco | ugh | 14:47 |
| knome | tsimpson, * | 14:47 |
| knome | With this new layout we hope to firstly reduce the load on ubottu, and also make it clearer exactly which bot should be in which channels which channels. | 14:47 |
| knome | "which channels which channels" | 14:48 |
| jussi | knome: his word press has been evil to him... | 14:48 |
| bazhang | wow banlist is full | 14:48 |
| tsimpson | which witch is which? | 14:48 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu | 14:49 |
| jussi | bazhang: I delegate you to fix it :P :P | 14:49 |
| bazhang | ok :) | 14:49 |
| tsimpson | you may want to attempt to clear out the stale +e's | 14:50 |
| IdleOne | why don't the floodbots remove all those bans? | 14:50 |
| jussi | because they are evil... | 14:51 |
| bazhang | the floodbot redirects to #ubuntu-read-topic ? | 14:51 |
| jussi | bazhang: get rid if they are older than 2 weeks. | 14:52 |
| bazhang | [MaFiOtA_1987 very objectionable mask | 14:53 |
| bazhang | jussi, okay | 14:53 |
| bazhang | only two from two weeks ago. many from a week ago. | 14:56 |
| bazhang | not sure what you mean by the exceptions, however | 14:58 |
| tsimpson | the +e list is the ban exception list, it overrides a +b or +q | 14:58 |
| tsimpson | I'd say a week is old enough to remove them | 14:59 |
| bazhang | not seeing them however | 15:00 |
| tsimpson | you need to be +o to and use '/mode e' to see the list | 15:01 |
| bazhang | thanks | 15:02 |
| bazhang | huge list | 15:04 |
| bazhang | whoops that did not seem to work | 15:05 |
| bazhang | bazhang removes ban on *!*@gateway/web/*$#ubuntu-proxy-users | 15:07 |
| bazhang | there must be some easier way of doing this (correctly, that is) | 15:09 |
| IdleOne | ewww xchat should really format /mode e a little nicer | 15:13 |
| bazhang | so the only way to do this is /mode #ubuntu -b fullstring here? | 15:15 |
| bazhang | those who are in the know please share to us untutored masses | 15:15 |
| bazhang | -e ? | 15:17 |
| tsimpson | bazhang: -e, not -b | 15:18 |
| tsimpson | you can give up to 4 modes at a time though | 15:18 |
| bazhang | tsimpson, so /mode #ubuntu -e fullstringhere? | 15:18 |
| tsimpson | yeah, or /mode -eeee first second third forth | 15:18 |
| bazhang | e.g. scyo1234~webgateway.etc.etc. | 15:19 |
| tsimpson | yep, the full mask | 15:19 |
| bazhang | okay, trying again | 15:19 |
| tsimpson | that's the reason the ban list seems to fill up, all those +e's count towards the total | 15:20 |
| bazhang | so does it need to be done individually, or can I just lump them all together and do it in one shot | 15:22 |
| tsimpson | you can do 4 at a time, per /mode command | 15:23 |
| Tm_T | bazhang: max four can be in one shot | 15:23 |
| bazhang | so /mode #ubuntu -eeee fourfullstringshere | 15:23 |
| Tm_T | separated with space | 15:23 |
| tsimpson | /mode -eeee first second third forth | 15:24 |
| bazhang | thanks | 15:24 |
| tsimpson | btw, you won't flood the channel. only those with +o can see +/-e changes | 15:24 |
| IdleOne | bazhang: want I should start at the bottom of the list? | 15:25 |
| IdleOne | so we can clear it faster | 15:25 |
| bazhang | IdleOne, that's where I am :) | 15:25 |
| tsimpson | the ones at the top should be the newest | 15:26 |
| bazhang | just cleared buntu | 15:26 |
| IdleOne | ok well here, copy a paste a chunk to me and I will do them | 15:26 |
| IdleOne | or never mind | 15:27 |
| IdleOne | since you did it | 15:27 |
| bazhang | is that sufficient? just removed twenty or so | 15:32 |
| tsimpson | should last for a little while at least | 15:46 |
| tsimpson | the floodbots should warn when we are getting low (experimental) and when full | 15:47 |
| bazhang | I'll be happy to do more; say the next 50%? | 15:47 |
| tsimpson | I'd say remove up-to and including "nixbox!~816ef208@gateway/web/freenode/x-jviffnnfkuhopzjj hubbard.freenode.net 1274314920" (the last netsplit) | 15:50 |
| bazhang | thanks much tsimpson | 15:50 |
| IdleOne | HDBanger (~HDBanger@c-24-245-37-203.hsd1.mn.comcast.net) has left #ubuntu ("Lick the stank.") | 16:05 |
| IdleOne | yuck ^^ | 16:05 |
| ubottu | In ubottu, IdleOne said: puregnome is If you want to remove all !KDE packages in Lucid 10.04 and previous Ubuntu versions, go to http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 16:22 |
| IdleOne | the psychocats link removes more packages then the one in the !puregnome factoid does right now. it also has the commands to remove xubuntu and links for older versions. | 16:33 |
| IdleOne | with Drgrov just now in #ubuntu he was stuck with the kubuntu shutdown and logon splash images. psychocats takes care of those from the get | 16:34 |
| IdleOne | So anyway I think an edit to the factoid is necessary | 16:36 |
| IdleOne | :) | 16:36 |
| jussi | !puregnome | 16:47 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get --purge remove kdelibs4c2a kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 16:47 |
| jussi | hram, we used to have the psychocats link... I wonder what the reasoning to change it was | 16:48 |
| IdleOne | not sure but seems to me if we can have a user resolve his issue in one shot that is better then having him come back and ask a second question about the same issue | 16:49 |
| jussi | IdleOne: feel like putting that info onto an ubuntu wiki page somewhere? | 16:49 |
| IdleOne | which info ? | 16:49 |
| jussi | Id rather link to w.u.c than psycho cats | 16:49 |
| IdleOne | sure | 16:49 |
| IdleOne | gimme a little bit I'll link you when done | 16:50 |
| jussi | :) | 16:50 |
| bazhang | keep an eye on jungli, he was trolling elsewhere earlier | 16:54 |
| ubottu | In #ubuntu-offtopic, bilalakhtar said: ubottu is the best! ubottu is the best! she knows ubuntu! she uses ubuntu! she is controlled by jussi! she is hosted by some Rackspace! 3 cheers to UBOTTU! | 16:55 |
| knome | ugh | 16:56 |
| IdleOne | uhh, how do I insert a command into a box like on the psychocats link? | 16:58 |
| IdleOne | on the wiki that is | 16:58 |
| IdleOne | or in the wiki | 16:59 |
| bazhang | the factoid edit? | 16:59 |
| IdleOne | yes | 17:00 |
| jussi | IdleOne: I used to know, but I cant remember :P goo look at another wiki page with it? | 17:00 |
| IdleOne | :P | 17:00 |
| IdleOne | I was hopping you wouldn't say that | 17:01 |
| jussi | ie. click edit and see how they did it? | 17:01 |
| * IdleOne does his homework | 17:01 | |
| bazhang | yikes that usb factoid refers to feisty | 17:02 |
| jussi | bazhang: o.O which one? | 17:05 |
| bazhang | the !usb one jussi | 17:05 |
| jussi | !usb | 17:05 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 17:05 |
| bazhang | trying to find a more recent one on the web now | 17:06 |
| IdleOne | jussi: not pretty but does the job. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/puregnome if anybody wants to clean it up and adda Table to it, be my guest :) | 17:28 |
| IdleOne | oh I should add credit to psychocats? | 17:32 |
| Mamarok | sorry, connection is a bit shakey | 17:44 |
| * IdleOne grabs Mamarok and holds her still | 17:49 | |
| Tm_T | troll in -devel | 17:49 |
| Tm_T | charlie-tca: I'm not sure if playing with trolls helps alot but... (: | 17:56 |
| charlie-tca | Thinking you are right | 17:57 |
| * charlie-tca could not resist the 'throw the money away' thing anyway | 17:57 | |
| mneptok | charlie-tca: please do not feed trolls in channels where you have no access. | 18:06 |
| charlie-tca | okay | 18:06 |
| mneptok | if it escalates because of your actions, what will you do? | 18:06 |
| Tm_T | actually I think the rule of thumb is "do not feed the trolls" anyway | 18:07 |
| * mneptok nods | 18:07 | |
| charlie-tca | valuable point. Thank you for the reminder | 18:07 |
| nigelb | Can someone look at #ubuntu-devel, somone suspect to be trolling.. | 18:07 |
| Tm_T | nigelb: we are at it | 18:07 |
| bazhang | subway24? | 18:07 |
| * Tm_T assumes mneptok has access there | 18:07 | |
| nigelb | yep | 18:07 |
| nigelb | thank you :) | 18:08 |
| mneptok | Tm_T: i do. | 18:08 |
| bazhang | arand mentioned it a bit ago | 18:08 |
| jordy240 | dmsuperman is trolling in offtopic and is not getting banned/kicked | 18:08 |
| Tm_T | I actually asked Spama.. not to feed that one so | 18:08 |
| bazhang | jordy240, how so | 18:08 |
| jordy240 | troll | 18:09 |
| bazhang | jordy240, the ops are in that channel already | 18:09 |
| jordy240 | ......ok | 18:09 |
| jordy240 | good to hear? | 18:09 |
| bazhang | yep | 18:09 |
| IdleOne | guess dms forgot about !enter | 18:11 |
| IdleOne | Why is it we have to continue warning him on a daily basis and nothing gets done about him? | 18:14 |
| bazhang | dmsuperman? | 18:14 |
| IdleOne | yeah | 18:15 |
| IdleOne | he does this Holier then thou thing everyday | 18:16 |
| IdleOne | if you disagree with anything he says then we are the arses | 18:16 |
| IdleOne | and he knows all | 18:16 |
| mneptok | maybe he knows where my car keys are. | 18:16 |
| mneptok | 'cause i sure don't. | 18:17 |
| IdleOne | ask him | 18:17 |
| IdleOne | I'm sure he will potificate on the subject | 18:17 |
| IdleOne | pontificate* | 18:17 |
| mneptok | i'd rather just walk everywhere. | 18:17 |

| ubottu | In ubottu, guntbert said: !hi is <sed> / Feel/ This is a support channel. Feel/ | 19:53 |
| guntbert | hi, I'm aware that ubottu is probably in non-support channels too - so my proposal would not make much sense there - is it possible to limit the factoid to only support channel? | 19:57 |
| guntbert | channels | 19:57 |
| IdleOne | guntbert: I believe they can make the factoid channel specific | 19:59 |
| IdleOne | with the same trigger in diff channels it will display diff factoid | 19:59 |
| IdleOne | I think :/ | 20:00 |
| guntbert | IdleOne: yes, that would mean to create one for every support channel - but maybe there is some shortcut :-) | 20:00 |
| IdleOne | guntbert: who ever approves the factoid edits probably will be able to figure that all out | 20:01 |
| jussi | guntbert: yeah, its a bit hard currently | 20:01 |
| guntbert | jussi: I was afraid of that - but I really think that not mentioning "support" in !hi leaves room for misinterpretations | 20:02 |
| jussi | guntbert: I think it might be nice to implement groups of channel specific factiods, but we have much more pressing things at the moment | 20:02 |
| IdleOne | I think -ops needs a coffee and donut fund | 20:04 |
| guntbert | jussi: fair enough - I'll leave it to you then - btw ubottu's new home seems to have done wonders for her health :-) | 20:04 |
| jussi | guntbert: if youve python experience we could always use more contributors ;) | 20:04 |
| jussi | IdleOne: lol | 20:04 |
| IdleOne | :) | 20:05 |
| guntbert | jussi: no, sorry, but that could be a reason to acquire them :-) | 20:05 |
| jussi | guntbert: if you are interested, you can come join us in #ubuntu-bots-devel | 20:05 |
| * guntbert hands around a tray with espresso | 20:05 | |
| IdleOne | thanks I'll take two | 20:05 |
| jussi | !cookie | IdleOne | 20:06 |
| ubottu | IdleOne: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 20:06 |
| IdleOne | jussi: I know you are a busy person. Did you take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/puregnome and please offer any suggestions/changes | 20:06 |
| IdleOne | ohh espresso and cookie :) | 20:06 |
| guntbert | jussi: thanks for the invitation - before that I'll have a good look at the language though - although they say that the n-th language comes a lot easier :-) | 20:07 |
| IdleOne | guntbert: thinkpython.com | 20:07 |
| IdleOne | that should get you hacking in no time :) | 20:07 |
| jussi | guntbert: tsimpsonis really helpful and will answer any questions you have if he can. there is also myself m4v and a few others | 20:07 |
| IdleOne | I should look at that link myself | 20:08 |
| jussi | IdleOne: o.O that seems a bit over the top no? | 20:08 |
| IdleOne | what does? | 20:08 |
| guntbert | IdleOne: thx - reading , jussi: thx to you too | 20:08 |
| jussi | the insstructions in the link... | 20:08 |
| jussi | guntbert: laters! | 20:09 |
| IdleOne | jussi: there is no nicer way I could find to display the commands | 20:09 |
| IdleOne | that is why I said earlier of someone knows how to clean that up | 20:09 |
| jussi | IdleOne: why not use xfce-* etc... | 20:09 |
| jussi | ? | 20:09 |
| IdleOne | all I did was copy the instructions. I did not write them | 20:10 |
| IdleOne | don't know if using wildcard would change the outcome | 20:10 |
| * jussi would like a few more opinions on this. | 20:11 | |
| IdleOne | like I said i would appreciate if anybody could clean it up and make it more friendly looking | 20:11 |
| jussi | in any case, I got to go... | 20:13 |

| * tonyyarusso is thinking "FotherMucker" isn't an appropriate nick, in line with our "obfuscated swearing is still swearing" stance - anyone care to offer a second opinion? | 22:46 | |
| IdleOne | agreed | 22:46 |
| IdleOne | I think he needs to be asked to change nick or leave the channel | 22:47 |
| IdleOne | problem solved | 22:48 |
| InsertNameHere | Hello powers | 23:04 |
| InsertNameHere | I have come here to seek answers | 23:05 |
| IdleOne | hello InsertNameHere, how can we help you? | 23:05 |
| InsertNameHere | I was wondering why swearing is tolerated in some ubuntu rooms, but not in others? | 23:05 |
| InsertNameHere | I mean surely people who discover IRC are mature enough. | 23:05 |
| IdleOne | the rooms it is tolerated in are not official ubuntu channels | 23:05 |
| InsertNameHere | Ah, that makes sense. | 23:06 |
| IdleOne | so the club you are talking about...not ubuntu related | 23:06 |
| InsertNameHere | ##club-ubuntu? | 23:06 |
| IdleOne | wouldn't know and please don't advertise other channel names | 23:06 |
| InsertNameHere | Oh, I'm sorry. | 23:07 |
| mneptok | that channel is not an official Ubuntu channel | 23:07 |
| InsertNameHere | I'm kinda new to all this. | 23:07 |
| InsertNameHere | Thank you oh wise ones. | 23:07 |
| InsertNameHere | For your guidance. | 23:07 |
| IdleOne | InsertNameHere: | 23:07 |
| * InsertNameHere bows out | 23:07 | |
| IdleOne | your welcome | 23:07 |
| IdleOne | have a good day | 23:07 |
| === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang | ||
| Madpilot | hmm, interesting that FotherMucker changed his/her/its name to InsertNameHere before coming here, then changed it back after they left this channel | 23:42 |
| IdleOne | I just asked him to part ubuntu channels with that nick and he did right away without issue | 23:43 |
| Madpilot | ah, good | 23:43 |
| IdleOne | we had also asked him in -ot before he came here and he did change it then also without issue | 23:44 |
| Madpilot | missed that in -ot, I'm on and off the kb this afternoon | 23:44 |
| IdleOne | I think it was more just a "oops I forgot I was in there" thing | 23:44 |
| Madpilot | different nicks depending on which channel they're in? OK, if that's working for them... | 23:45 |
| IdleOne | would be interresting if you could do that on irc | 23:45 |
| IdleOne | diff nick for diff channel on same network | 23:45 |
| IdleOne | imagine being an op then heh | 23:46 |
