jussiJFYI, I added !addfact to the bot, as it is a pretty frequently asked question, and sending people to the web page which isnt ideal atm isnt the best.10:44
Tm_TFYI bacta is back12:44
gnomefreakwho is he?12:47
Tm_Tgnomefreak: I wonder if bantracker explains things clearly enough (it's quite a long story)12:50
gnomefreaki will look12:50
gnomefreak@btlogin12:51
gnomefreakwell i see an indefinate ban so i am guessing it was removed12:52
Tm_Tthere's tons of bans across the u-namespace, from a long period of time12:53
gnomefreakim seeing that12:53
gnomefreaki didnt see him in #u +1 -ot12:53
Tm_The was in -women, as usual12:54
gnomefreakoh12:54
* gnomefreak not an op in there12:55
Tm_Tthere's currently nothing we can do anyway13:17
gnomefreakwhy?13:33
Tm_The isn't violating any rules, although many feels uncomfortable just him being there13:34
gnomefreakif it was an indefinate ban than shouldnt we be able to ban13:40
Tm_TIIRC preemptive ban is still no-go unless one is currently misbehaving13:42
Tm_Tin an extention that it warrants such harsh measures13:42
gnomefreakk13:42
MamarokBTW, we need to keep an eye on sergio in #kubuntu, he joins several times daily, greets in Italian (has been told !it several times already) and invariably asks for !list13:48
Mamarokthis is really getting annoying13:48
bazhangthat "malware" link is 40413:48
gnomefreakMamarok: hes in +1 but i will check #k13:52
gnomefreakits not malware13:52
gnomefreakor it was closed already13:52
bazhangof course not. I'd treat her claims with a great deal of skepticism13:52
gnomefreaknevermind wrong nick13:53
gnomefreaki still wouldnt advise people to open it unless they can handle problems13:53
Picinewerror123 evading a few bans.14:37
Picier, and I banned him.14:40
bazhangah the prabinmetals guy. should probably remove the failed *prabinmet*!*@* I set earlier15:00
knomeafaik, you can't wildcard nicks15:01
PiciSure you can.15:01
knomehmm, maybe that was a limitation in ircnet15:01
Tm_Tknome: you can there too15:10
knomeright15:10
knomemaybe it was a limitation in some script, then15:10
marienzseems like a pretty odd limitation (I definitely don't remember ever seeing it on freenode)15:11
ubottuilovefairuz called the ops in #ubuntu ()16:53
PiciWeird question.17:37
PiciWhy would you get a linux vps if you needed to run a windows application?17:38
IdleOnebecause linux is virus free17:39
IdleOneso that means I can run mirc and not worry about virii17:40
* IdleOne has done the math, the logic is flawless.17:40
ikoniaTm_T: for the record I've raised bactas namespace wide ban with the council and I'm still awaiting a reply18:45
ikonia!appeals18:49
ubottuIf you disagree with a decision by an operator, please first pay #ubuntu-ops a visit. If you are still unhappy, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/AppealProcess for the steps you should take. If you feel the need to discuss the channel rules, please contact the ops on IRC or via the email address on the aforementioned page.18:49
ikoniawhat's the fix your connection channel ?19:08
Pici##fix_your_connection19:09
ikoniaahhh underscores19:09
ikoniathank you19:09
PiciAlso, !mp3 and !codec are both aliases to !codecs19:20

Piciikonia is always banning jono...19:27
ikoniaha ha ha19:27
ikoniaI've only forwarded him as he keeps dropping his connection in #ubuntu, I've left him on the other channels as they aren't as busy19:27
ikoniaalso pm'd him19:27

mneptokDappper is still supported.19:56
mneptok-p19:56
ikoniamixing the two distros aren't19:56
ikoniaisn't even19:56
jussimneptok: is it not only supported on server now?19:57
mneptokjussi: it is.19:57
jribmneptok: how exactly is server support defined anyway, how does one determine if a package is supported or not?20:28
PiciThere actually is a spot on the package's meta information (packages.gz) that says how long its supported for.20:29
jribI see20:30
PiciSee the difference between apt-cache show bash and apt-cache show ubuntu-desktop20:30
PiciThe 'Supported' field.20:30
jribPici: cool, never noticed that20:30

IdleOnethe !donate factoid leads to a 40421:49
