[04:51] Agu10 has been spoken to about his choice of nicks [06:35] ubottu: tell bobbarker about nickspam [08:07] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [10:24] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (flood (16)) [10:49] O/ [10:53] I wish there was quassel for this phone, but this client isnt too bad... [11:05] using andchat? that works pretty well [11:10] Gord yup. [11:11] Gord still havent figured out tab complete on it yet though... [11:12] android, erm, you start typing someone's name, it adds the peoples names in the chat to the global dictionary autocomplete thing [11:16] android, you should have a 'tab' key on the virtual keyboard at least iirc [11:17] 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] Virtual keyboard pish [11:18] elky: ahh found it [11:18] android, yeah, you have to tap shift or ctrl or something to get the other half of the useful keyboardness [11:18] Its the search key that acts like a tab key [11:19] that's weird. maybe they changed the keyboard between v1.6 and vWhatever [11:19] Perhaps... [11:20] or i'm thinking of the linux virt keyboard on these craptastic kludgy tablet things [11:20] Lol, maybe [11:20] * elky loads up the handy one to check [11:21] Mind, im loving this milestone, just awesome [11:21] * jpds wonders if android is paranoid. [11:21] there's apparently an app called parandroid [11:21] gpg sms iirc [11:21] lol [11:22] this really isn't the channel for this discussion though [11:33] bacta in #u-desktop [11:33] trolling about window controlls [11:37] oh dear [11:39] he's quieted [11:42] probably saw us all join... :P [11:43] marienz, ^^ [11:44] and there we are, he's in -women [12:03] oh boy... [12:15] In #ubuntu, aks_ said: ubottu this is a very long and complicated proces...pls tell some easy process [12:59] morning jussi [13:00] morning rgreening [13:02] hey jussi [14:22] sometimes I wish we could just remote desktop and fix users issues for/with them [14:22] hah [14:22] o'rly ... [14:23] is vikas for real? [14:23] probably [14:23] i once told an american guy how to edit a text file [14:23] took me 6 hours to go through [14:23] he has pastespammed multiple channels multiple times [14:23] well, once he learns how to use pastebin, i think it's gonna be fine [14:25] just a fyi, I've put "compbot" in #ubuntu and #kubuntu to test some supybot memory usage [14:25] thanks! [14:25] it should be silent and not interfere with ubottu [14:28] * IdleOne refrains from abusing compbot [14:29] knome: you experiencing diffculty getting your suggestions implemented by a user also? [14:30] wow nasty hostname [14:30] IdleOne, of course ;) [14:30] at work we use pcanywhere user calls " I can't do this!" I connect and do it. WOW your a genius! [14:30] yeah [14:30] user doesn't learn anything but then again they aren't meant to [14:31] guess why i have three vnc bookmarks for the pc's of my family [14:31] 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] true [14:32] why would they want to use time+money to educate their employees [14:32] if it's not defined in the law [14:32] lol [14:32] well we do tech support for hardware stores [14:33] the company doesn't need IT experts selling hardware [14:33] heh [14:33] guess that is why I have a job [14:33] ;] [14:39] 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] and for all of you who missed it: http://tsimpson.ubottu.com/blog/archives/7 [14:46] bazhang: shmatak looks problematic [14:46] 1. the ident is "holyshit" [14:46] 2. "pederasi" sounds to me like "pederast" which means "pedophile" [14:46] maco, check the mafioaa87 one [14:47] ugh [14:47] tsimpson, * [14:47] 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. [14:48] "which channels which channels" [14:48] knome: his word press has been evil to him... [14:48] wow banlist is full [14:48] which witch is which? [14:49] #ubuntu [14:49] bazhang: I delegate you to fix it :P :P [14:49] ok :) [14:50] you may want to attempt to clear out the stale +e's [14:50] why don't the floodbots remove all those bans? [14:51] because they are evil... [14:51] the floodbot redirects to #ubuntu-read-topic ? [14:52] bazhang: get rid if they are older than 2 weeks. [14:53] [MaFiOtA_1987 very objectionable mask [14:53] jussi, okay [14:56] only two from two weeks ago. many from a week ago. [14:58] not sure what you mean by the exceptions, however [14:58] the +e list is the ban exception list, it overrides a +b or +q [14:59] I'd say a week is old enough to remove them [15:00] not seeing them however [15:01] you need to be +o to and use '/mode e' to see the list [15:02] thanks [15:04] huge list [15:05] whoops that did not seem to work [15:07] bazhang removes ban on *!*@gateway/web/*$#ubuntu-proxy-users [15:09] there must be some easier way of doing this (correctly, that is) [15:13] ewww xchat should really format /mode e a little nicer [15:15] so the only way to do this is /mode #ubuntu -b fullstring here? [15:15] those who are in the know please share to us untutored masses [15:17] -e ? [15:18] bazhang: -e, not -b [15:18] you can give up to 4 modes at a time though [15:18] tsimpson, so /mode #ubuntu -e fullstringhere? [15:18] yeah, or /mode -eeee first second third forth [15:19] e.g. scyo1234~webgateway.etc.etc. [15:19] yep, the full mask [15:19] okay, trying again [15:20] that's the reason the ban list seems to fill up, all those +e's count towards the total [15:22] so does it need to be done individually, or can I just lump them all together and do it in one shot [15:23] you can do 4 at a time, per /mode command [15:23] bazhang: max four can be in one shot [15:23] so /mode #ubuntu -eeee fourfullstringshere [15:23] separated with space [15:24] /mode -eeee first second third forth [15:24] thanks [15:24] btw, you won't flood the channel. only those with +o can see +/-e changes [15:25] bazhang: want I should start at the bottom of the list? [15:25] so we can clear it faster [15:25] IdleOne, that's where I am :) [15:26] the ones at the top should be the newest [15:26] just cleared buntu [15:26] ok well here, copy a paste a chunk to me and I will do them [15:27] or never mind [15:27] since you did it [15:32] is that sufficient? just removed twenty or so [15:46] should last for a little while at least [15:47] the floodbots should warn when we are getting low (experimental) and when full [15:47] I'll be happy to do more; say the next 50%? [15:50] I'd say remove up-to and including "nixbox!~816ef208@gateway/web/freenode/x-jviffnnfkuhopzjj hubbard.freenode.net 1274314920" (the last netsplit) [15:50] thanks much tsimpson [16:05] HDBanger (~HDBanger@c-24-245-37-203.hsd1.mn.comcast.net) has left #ubuntu ("Lick the stank.") [16:05] yuck ^^ [16:22] 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 [16:33] 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. [16:34] 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 [16:36] So anyway I think an edit to the factoid is necessary [16:36] :) [16:47] !puregnome [16:47] 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 [16:48] hram, we used to have the psychocats link... I wonder what the reasoning to change it was [16:49] 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] IdleOne: feel like putting that info onto an ubuntu wiki page somewhere? [16:49] which info ? [16:49] Id rather link to w.u.c than psycho cats [16:49] sure [16:50] gimme a little bit I'll link you when done [16:50] :) [16:54] keep an eye on jungli, he was trolling elsewhere earlier [16:55] 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! [16:56] ugh [16:58] uhh, how do I insert a command into a box like on the psychocats link? [16:58] on the wiki that is [16:59] or in the wiki [16:59] the factoid edit? [17:00] yes [17:00] IdleOne: I used to know, but I cant remember :P goo look at another wiki page with it? [17:00] :P [17:01] I was hopping you wouldn't say that [17:01] ie. click edit and see how they did it? [17:01] * IdleOne does his homework [17:02] yikes that usb factoid refers to feisty [17:05] bazhang: o.O which one? [17:05] the !usb one jussi [17:05] !usb [17:05] 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 [17:06] trying to find a more recent one on the web now [17:28] 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 :) [17:32] oh I should add credit to psychocats? [17:44] sorry, connection is a bit shakey [17:49] * IdleOne grabs Mamarok and holds her still [17:49] troll in -devel [17:56] charlie-tca: I'm not sure if playing with trolls helps alot but... (: [17:57] Thinking you are right [17:57] * charlie-tca could not resist the 'throw the money away' thing anyway [18:06] charlie-tca: please do not feed trolls in channels where you have no access. [18:06] okay [18:06] if it escalates because of your actions, what will you do? [18:07] actually I think the rule of thumb is "do not feed the trolls" anyway [18:07] * mneptok nods [18:07] valuable point. Thank you for the reminder [18:07] Can someone look at #ubuntu-devel, somone suspect to be trolling.. [18:07] nigelb: we are at it [18:07] subway24? [18:07] * Tm_T assumes mneptok has access there [18:07] yep [18:08] thank you :) [18:08] Tm_T: i do. [18:08] arand mentioned it a bit ago [18:08] dmsuperman is trolling in offtopic and is not getting banned/kicked [18:08] I actually asked Spama.. not to feed that one so [18:08] jordy240, how so [18:09] troll [18:09] jordy240, the ops are in that channel already [18:09] ......ok [18:09] good to hear? [18:09] yep [18:11] guess dms forgot about !enter [18:14] Why is it we have to continue warning him on a daily basis and nothing gets done about him? [18:14] dmsuperman? [18:15] yeah [18:16] he does this Holier then thou thing everyday [18:16] if you disagree with anything he says then we are the arses [18:16] and he knows all [18:16] maybe he knows where my car keys are. [18:17] 'cause i sure don't. [18:17] ask him [18:17] I'm sure he will potificate on the subject [18:17] pontificate* [18:17] i'd rather just walk everywhere.

Obrigado. [19:53] In ubottu, guntbert said: !hi is / Feel/ This is a support channel. Feel/ [19:57] 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] channels [19:59] guntbert: I believe they can make the factoid channel specific [19:59] with the same trigger in diff channels it will display diff factoid [20:00] I think :/ [20:00] IdleOne: yes, that would mean to create one for every support channel - but maybe there is some shortcut :-) [20:01] guntbert: who ever approves the factoid edits probably will be able to figure that all out [20:01] guntbert: yeah, its a bit hard currently [20:02] jussi: I was afraid of that - but I really think that not mentioning "support" in !hi leaves room for misinterpretations [20:02] guntbert: I think it might be nice to implement groups of channel specific factiods, but we have much more pressing things at the moment [20:04] I think -ops needs a coffee and donut fund [20:04] 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] guntbert: if youve python experience we could always use more contributors ;) [20:04] IdleOne: lol [20:05] :) [20:05] jussi: no, sorry, but that could be a reason to acquire them :-) [20:05] 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] thanks I'll take two [20:06] !cookie | IdleOne [20:06] IdleOne: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [20:06] 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] ohh espresso and cookie :) [20:07] 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] guntbert: thinkpython.com [20:07] that should get you hacking in no time :) [20:07] guntbert: tsimpsonis really helpful and will answer any questions you have if he can. there is also myself m4v and a few others [20:08] I should look at that link myself [20:08] IdleOne: o.O that seems a bit over the top no? [20:08] what does? [20:08] IdleOne: thx - reading , jussi: thx to you too [20:08] the insstructions in the link... [20:09] guntbert: laters! [20:09] jussi: there is no nicer way I could find to display the commands [20:09] that is why I said earlier of someone knows how to clean that up [20:09] IdleOne: why not use xfce-* etc... [20:09] ? [20:10] all I did was copy the instructions. I did not write them [20:10] don't know if using wildcard would change the outcome [20:11] * jussi would like a few more opinions on this. [20:11] like I said i would appreciate if anybody could clean it up and make it more friendly looking [20:13] in any case, I got to go... [20:13] later [20:19] Bwahahahah [20:20] I'm back :D [20:22] This phone rocks :D [20:33] lol [20:43] android: you rang earlier? [21:04] mneptok: no, you cannot ring with android [21:43] In ubottu, LjL said: !no antivirus is Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using !Samba). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus and http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [21:43] In ubottu, LjL said: !no virus is antivirus [21:43] In ubottu, LjL said: !no linuxvirus is antivirus [21:43] LjL called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic (hello-everybody has been told not to advertize his silly channel before) [22:46] * 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] agreed [22:47] I think he needs to be asked to change nick or leave the channel [22:48] problem solved [23:04] Hello powers [23:05] I have come here to seek answers [23:05] hello InsertNameHere, how can we help you? [23:05] I was wondering why swearing is tolerated in some ubuntu rooms, but not in others? [23:05] I mean surely people who discover IRC are mature enough. [23:05] the rooms it is tolerated in are not official ubuntu channels [23:06] Ah, that makes sense. [23:06] so the club you are talking about...not ubuntu related [23:06] ##club-ubuntu? [23:06] wouldn't know and please don't advertise other channel names [23:07] Oh, I'm sorry. [23:07] that channel is not an official Ubuntu channel [23:07] I'm kinda new to all this. [23:07] Thank you oh wise ones. [23:07] For your guidance. [23:07] InsertNameHere: [23:07] * InsertNameHere bows out [23:07] your welcome [23:07] have a good day === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:42] hmm, interesting that FotherMucker changed his/her/its name to InsertNameHere before coming here, then changed it back after they left this channel [23:43] I just asked him to part ubuntu channels with that nick and he did right away without issue [23:43] ah, good [23:44] we had also asked him in -ot before he came here and he did change it then also without issue [23:44] missed that in -ot, I'm on and off the kb this afternoon [23:44] I think it was more just a "oops I forgot I was in there" thing [23:45] different nicks depending on which channel they're in? OK, if that's working for them... [23:45] would be interresting if you could do that on irc [23:45] diff nick for diff channel on same network [23:46] imagine being an op then heh [23:46] oh boy, the trolls would love that one [23:46] well bans would be global in that case I think [23:47] hmm no that wouldn't work either [23:47] anyway, just be thankful IRC doesn't work that way :) [23:47] yup [23:47] must go do real-world bumpf before the bank closes. later. [23:47] I got a slight headache just from thinking about the logistics for one minute [23:47] heh
