KB1JWQLot of nonsense in the channel tonight it would seem. :-/05:18
persiaReleases are special05:18
KB1JWQApparently so.05:18
Jordan_Uwindowshasyou in #ubuntu may be a troll06:32
macow/ a nick like that? no way!06:33
bazhanghe is06:33
bazhangbragging about it in ##linux (again)06:35
Jordan_UI am torn between wanting to correct misinformation and not wanting to feed the troll.06:36
persiaYou will improve the world disabusing the postulants of misinformation, but at personal cost of dealing with the troll06:39
bazhanggot him in PM06:41
macoi think "i haz da code" shutted him up a bit06:42
bazhangif he continues, I'll remove him. no need to continue feeding; this is the 2nd time he's done this in recent days06:42
macowell as persia said, there's the "stopping the fud" thing06:43
bazhangfirst time a simple PM was enough to get him to stop. hopefully now as well06:43
* persia gives maco 14 concision points06:46
macopersia: conciseness just went boom06:48
* persia refutes "consiseness" as a word: "concision: to cut away or off" is the word.06:49
persiaHas been for > 700 years: I'm sure "conciseness" is a relative neologism.06:50
bazhangmost of the folks in that channel are nice and respectful, just a small core that refer to morontu and organize troll raids periodically (crytptopsy/anal_christ, et al)06:58
Jordan_UStunnedByNews is trolling in #ubuntu07:46
jussiJordan_U: is it still an issue?07:58
Jordan_Ujussi: No.07:59
elkytopyli, let me guess, I'm not allowed to crush his little soul.10:54
topylihehe10:54
elkytopyli, I was tempted to say that I've been using the precursor to the USB Installer since it was "just some script the devs had been fiddling with" but I figured that'd need too much explaining10:59
elkyer, USB Creator10:59
topylibetter to just keeps smiling :)11:00
topyli-s11:00
elkyI can crush souls while maintaining a smile. It's a skill.11:00
persiaBut can you do it without that special rictus taking over, and while avoiding the frightening laugh?11:01
jpdselky: And seals?11:01
elkyjpds, lol.11:02
elky<person1> check out Jono's new album <person1> it's AWESOME <person2> person1: is that the guy from Severed Fifth?11:21
elkyI cannot adequately express how miserable that exchange makes me.11:21
persiaIn what forum did that happen?11:33
elkythe -au-chat irc channel.11:34
persia#u-au-c?  Oh my, indeed, that is truly unfortunate.11:34
elkyYes, Jono's name is more recognised in the casual .au ubuntu users as "the guy from Severed Fifth". :(11:37
elkyOh, and this guy knows about Severed Fifth from the ustream things. I get the feeling from clicking on stuff for the ubuntu facebook page.11:38

* persia suspects the bot of not being ready for network changes12:16
Jordan_UQuincy in #ubuntu appears to have been a (failed) spammer. He's gone now but you might want to flag him in case he comes back.12:31
ikoniamuted him as he just came back12:32
ikoniatalking to him in pm12:34
ikoniadon't think we'll have any problems from him, so I removed the mute, he was very helpful and honest in pm12:37
ikoniahas xchat been removed from the livecd ?12:39
ikoniaand IdleOne just did a desktop upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 and it hid the software souces as you said12:39
topylii don't think there's an irc client on the cd :(12:43
persiaikonia, xchat hasn't been on the livecd since pre-hardy12:43
persiaErr, pre-Dapper12:43
topylixchat-gnome is in main, xchat is in universe12:43
* persia hasn't checked warty and hoary, and isn't going to do so12:43
persiatopyli, empathy has an IRC interface12:44
ikoniapersia: very surprised12:44
topylisure12:44
ikoniawhy was an IRC client dropped fofr IRC use over an IM client ?12:44
topylii guess empathy is enough for joining #ubuntu and asking for help12:44
ikoniaha ha, I doubt it ;)12:45
persiaI think the {$something-else}->pidgin transition happened for dapper or edgy: something about having fewer applications being less confusing.12:45
persiapidgin -> empathy is more recent, but not really about dedicated IRC client anymore.12:45
ikoniaI'm out of date on the livecd in a big way it would seem12:45
ikoniaI wonder if it's worth putting a bug or feature request in to have an irc client included12:46
topyliwell pidgin is pretty good with irc, empathy not so much12:46
persiatopyli, We call that a bug :)12:46
topyliBug #49374: please remove irc support12:47
ubottuLaunchpad bug 49374 in Launchpad CSCVS "cscvs abuses iter_inventory" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/4937412:47
topyliduh12:47
Picipidgin was good with IRC?12:48
persiaPici, provided an acceptable interface when compared against xchat-gnome for basic use.12:48
topyliit's okay if you're not an operator anyway, and if you don't join too many channels12:48
topylis/anyway/anywhere/12:48
Picipersia: I know, I'm being a bit sarcastic.  Er, or something ;)12:49
persiaCan even work for being operator, if the channel is mostly calm and behaved12:49
persiaPici, Ah.  Sorry :)12:49
ikoniais it worth logging a bug to get something like xchat back, or am I being over fussy ?12:50
persiaikonia, ENOSPACE is the most likely answer to such a request.12:50
ikoniawhy ?12:50
persiaBecause there's never enough space on the CD for everything anyway.12:50
PiciImprove holographic storage and make it affordable and you've got a deal.12:51
ikoniaI appreciate space is a premium, but I'm wondering how big xchat is and irc is pretty core for support12:51
ikonia(or an atual irc client, doesn't have to be xchat)12:51
ikoniaactual12:51
topyliit would probably be xchat-gnome anyway, as xchat is not even in main12:52
PiciHow poor is empathy's IRC support, or is it just that you need to create an 'account' and thats too much work?12:54
ikoniaPici: in my view, both, but that's just me12:55
jussiPici: its horrible to use, in addition to being very confusing.12:55
persiatopyli, "main" is just an artificial construct: trivial to move things back and forth.12:55
topyliPici: it's pretty poor as it doesn't support most commands12:56
jussiI spoke to the empathy guys about IRC last UDS and they agreed that it needs a lot of work.12:58
topyliat some point there was a plan to build a separate MUC client for telepathy that would handle all kinds of chatrooms13:00
topylithat way empathy would remain its cute and simple self. i liked the idea13:01
PiciIRC isn't cute or simple.13:01
jussiIve a feeling people will want to use webchat more and more, and perhaps we should see if we can make that work somehow.13:02
persiaThe telepathy guys are almost always happy to have new implementations of UIs: if someone were to write a (tiny) telepathy IRC inteface, it might even fit on the CD.13:02
persiaAnd since it's middle-layer compatible with empathy, I suspect the empathy guys would not be concerned.13:03
* Pici thinks about using openID/LP for auth instead of a captcha for webchat13:03
topylias a bonus, the client would handle jabber rooms and the proprietary IM spamrooms13:03
jussiEven if we try get with freenode and make it better13:03
jussiPici: thats a brilliant idea13:03
elkytopyli, like AOL?13:14
topylielky: like aol :)13:14
PiciAOL Keyword TROLLING13:14
elkyAOL trolls us all just by existing.13:15

ts2i'm having a look13:59
Pici(@channel works? I thought it was @config channel)13:59
ts2'config' is the plugin the command is in14:00
PiciWell I guess I was just doing it the long way then.14:01
ts2you only need to do that when multiple plugins have the command14:01
ts2should all be set to maverick now14:13
Picits2: Thanks :)14:14
PiciYeah, I know about the multiple plugin thing.  For some reason I thought it was just an argument to @config, as @config is its own command too.14:15
ts2well, the config plugin has the config command14:16

KillaHaxzI am just trying to assist.22:28
KillaHaxzand CAN"T in a channel22:29
KillaHaxzwhere hundereds of things move my and there posts around while i work22:29
IdleOnethen you can't be in #ubuntu asking people to PM you if they need help22:29
ikoniawell, hang on22:29
topyliwhen you help in the channel, others can learn from you. please share :)22:30
ikoniait's ok to take somethings to a pm problems can be complex and offtopic, but offering exclusive help in pm isn't really useful to the community22:30
KillaHaxzyes it is, as then ppl will see that they can come to me with problems and i can help them. then, i will post the q/a on the forum if it seams useful to others22:32
ikoniathat's not how the irc channel works22:32
KillaHaxzin the channel, the answer is gone in sec anyways, on forums, it stays22:32
ikoniathe channel is self moderating and a community contribution22:32
ikoniaI understand that some more complex issues can be taken to a pm, more so if they take the issue away from the ubuntu topic22:33
KillaHaxzpoint here???22:33
ikoniabut the main help should stay in the channel22:33
ikoniaKillaHaxz: if we let you back into #ubuntu could you please try to help in the main channel22:35
KillaHaxzokay, now how would i go about joining the admin team to make ubuntu better for all, and the irc channel to assist..?22:35
ikoniaKillaHaxz: that's not what I'm disscussing with you at the moment22:36
KillaHaxzseeing as knowing the founder is not enough to even be able to help people as i want22:36
ikoniaKillaHaxz: it doesn't matter who you know22:36
IdleOneI know him also22:36
KillaHaxzyes, i will not help at all then22:36
IdleOneso what22:36
ikoniaKillaHaxz: ok, we'll leave the ban in place then.22:36
ikoniaKillaHaxz: thanks for coming in to talk about it22:36
KillaHaxzthen you should know that he wouldn't have wanted this..22:36
ikonianoted22:37
ikoniaI'll actually raise the issue at the next irc council meeting to see if we can get a more clear policy on this22:37
KillaHaxzhe wanted it where users can help eachother in the best way that suites them both to meet a common conclussion..22:37
ikoniaKillaHaxz: again, noted22:37
KillaHaxzno can you lift the ban please? or do i have to use his account to do so? i do have his nickserv pass22:38
ikoniaKillaHaxz: you just said you didn't want to help - so we'll leave it as it is for the moment22:38
ts2if you dom you will be reported to staff22:38

IdleOneThis is not going anywhere.22:39
ikoniaplease leave the channel22:39
topyliKillaHaxz: so that you're clear on this, ikonia is not negotiating with you. he is explaining how things work and that's it.22:39
ikoniaI'll inform freenode staff that a user it pretending to be staff now22:39
KillaHaxzok, and i understand that, and i asked to be un-banned and agreed not to help in pm anymore.22:40

ikoniaKillaHaxz: please don't paste in here22:41
ikoniayou've been asked not to22:41
KillaHaxzi have been asked not to flood22:41
ikoniayes, that's true22:41
ts2fwiw, the IRCC is the "owner" of all Ubuntu channels, not one person22:41
KillaHaxznot to not paste, but noted22:41
ikoniabut last time it took you 50+ lines22:41
ikoniahence me telling you earlier22:41
KillaHaxzi did only 2 this time22:41
ikoniaKillaHaxz: anyway, thanks for stopping to discuss this, I will raise it at the next meeting, but if you could leave the channel as there is nothing more to discuss at this time22:42
KillaHaxzi was respectful to the wishes and did not flood22:42
