[00:07] <IdleOne> !no foo is baz
[00:08] <rww> !no, foo is elicious
[00:08] <rww> ^_^
[00:10] <maco> hahahha
[00:11] <CarlFK> tsimpson: I do.
[00:12] <CarlFK> unless having too many ninjas causes a problem - then I would  be happy to step down
[00:12] <tsimpson> no, just wanted to ask
[00:12] <tsimpson> we need our ops to be active and idle here
[00:12] <elky> there's a heckuva lot more process you need to follow than 5 years ago when the irc stuff was a lot less structured
[00:13] <elky> so please read up on it all.
[00:13] <CarlFK> cool - I am also a PSF member, and it just came up that too many non active members screws up voting because they need 50% of the members to vote or the election is not valid
[00:16] <tsimpson> CarlFK: take a look over the requirements at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorRequirements and I'll set you up with an ubottu account
[00:21] <CarlFK> heh - Nov 9 I posted to the PyCon Organizsers list: "To be a Ubuntu IRC op I agree to both Code of Conduct [1]  and Leadership Code of Conduct [2] I read them, have no problem with them, have no problem being asked to agree and I enjoy the concept that I am part of a group that had these principals."
[00:21] <CarlFK> hows that for compliance :)
[00:21] <CarlFK> pycon folk were suggesting that no one cares about that kinda thing
[00:22] <tsimpson> try using @login now
[00:22] <CarlFK> @login
[00:22] <CarlFK> yay - thanks.
[00:23] <tsimpson> if you have any questions, you can always ask here
[00:26] <CarlFK> What is the meaning of life?
[00:26] <CarlFK> :)
[00:27] <charlie-tca> 42
[00:27] <tsimpson> !meaningoflife
[00:27] <charlie-tca> That's my one right for today
[00:29] <CarlFK> nice.
[00:30]  * charlie-tca tries hard to get one answer right every day
[01:17] <Hobbsee> a username of rmrfslah can't be good
[01:18] <IdleOne> they rarely speak in the channel
[01:19] <IdleOne> if ever
[04:10] <Flannel> tsimpson: Did I not already?
[04:11] <Flannel> Also, if you preface your thing with a list of more than three names, my mental filter says "oh, an ops call", so might be more robust to do [message] [people] next time!
[04:19] <Pici> heh
[04:21] <maco> Flannel: i used to say stuff in here when it wasnt like super-duper emergency but was still "meep!" but i noticed that works not so good...
[04:22] <maco> (ie, gets noticed a few hours later)
[04:22] <Pici> People tend to forget that its okay for them to tell people tostop being offtopic.
[04:22] <Flannel> maco: Eh, it's perfectly fine to !ops even when it's not "really" an emergency.  I'd rather have us make that decision if the user isn't comfortable doing that.
[04:22] <Flannel> maco: But I just like to make sure people (who seem to feel sheepish about !ops) know there's alternatives
[04:23] <maco> i just go with telling them not to be so sheepish
[04:23] <Flannel> Well, I don't see anything wrong about someone stopping by here to bring something up, so... thats why I mention it when appropriate.
[04:23] <maco> dunno, id take "oh do it in -ops instead" as reinforcement that non-emergency usage of it is bad
[04:24] <Flannel> I didn't say that
[04:24] <maco> (paraphrasing)
[04:25] <Flannel> "[since you mentioned it wasn't an emergency], mentioning it in -ops is an easy way to let us know"  is a better paraphrase, but I'm not sure why you're arguing this, if you'd just as soon not have them come in here anyway.
[05:17] <rww> I suspect that the "use this only in emergencies" part of the factoid would reinforce that more than pointing people over here :\
[06:00] <rww> The last section of the /topic is out of date.
[06:01] <rww> ta
[06:01] <IdleOne> np
[06:10] <rww> IdleOne: a hand in #ubuntu+1 would be nice too, if you're still around
[06:12] <Hobbsee> rww: you need +o?
[06:12] <rww> Nah, they left.
[06:13] <Hobbsee> cool
[06:13] <IdleOne> Did you want to set a forward rww?
[06:13] <rww> I hate having to pick that fight every time it comes up. I don't like engaging when I'm mad, but someone has to ;(
[06:14] <rww> IdleOne: May as well leave it. I didn't expect them to /part.
[06:14] <IdleOne> me either to be honest
[06:14] <IdleOne> will keep an eye open for them.
[06:16] <IdleOne> thought about it, needs a forward.
[08:33] <rww> Fun fact: it looks like qpt` was banned by nick from #ubuntu until International Ban List Trimming Day.
[08:34] <Myrtti> why am I not surprised
[08:34] <elky> Yeah, he's a nick i recognise for all the wrong reasons
[08:35] <elky> iirc his pasttime consists of yelling about conspiracy theories
[08:35] <Myrtti> what surprises me is how my spider sense remembered insmod
[08:35] <elky> scary, innit
[08:35] <Tm_T> I wish to be in his conspiracy theories
[08:37] <rww> elky: also, talking to Bacta and flooding racial slurs in -ot. Huzzah.
[08:38] <elky> he has a few bans against -women too
[08:38] <rww> merp. Oh well, have fun, I'm going to sleep ;P
[08:39] <Myrtti> ah, it's nice to get reminders of why I'm not on -women anymore, thanks fellows
[08:39] <elky> first time was telling us about his boner
[08:40] <jussi> Remember what I said the other day ppls: [11:20:28] <jussi> Peoples, if you have interactions with bacta, or see him in our channels making an issue, we would love to have pastebins of the activity - please just drop the links here in -ops or PM an IRCC person.
[08:40] <elky> jussi, sit in -nz
[08:40] <elky> you'll see him at least once a week
[08:40] <rww> Yup. Perhaps my statement was ambiguous; I was referring to qpt`-related log files in BT ;P
[08:40] <elky> he hasn't really done much there
[08:41] <jussi> Point is, if bacta is making issues, we want to know about it.
[08:41] <elky> oh, we'd tell you. don't worry
[08:41] <elky> he seems pretty comprehensively banned though
[08:43] <jussi> elky: we need pastebins, actual interaction stuff.  (just "bacta's being silly again" isnt real helpful)
[08:44] <elky> i'm sure it'd be tracked in bantracker
[08:44] <elky> at least, any bull i see from him will be
[11:48] <cdbs> Looks like the recent change hasn't affected me, I don't have rights :(
[11:49] <cdbs> oh, I am still in probation period
[11:50] <cdbs> !foo is foo
[11:50] <cdbs> !no foo is foo
[11:51] <cdbs> oh, so it works here :)
[11:51] <cdbs> !no foo is elicious
[11:52] <jrib> !foo
[12:12] <Madpilot> beat me to it in -ot, maco
[12:14] <maco> Madpilot: i apparently walked back to the computer at the *perfect* time
[12:14] <Madpilot> I'd just switched back to Xchat too, actually. Heh.
[12:17] <maco> Madpilot: creeptastic
[12:18] <Madpilot> maco, "hope they're mostly female" is indeed creeptastic.
[13:54] <Pici> hallo
[13:57] <Myrtti> mrhm
[13:58] <Myrtti> incredibly annoying
[14:23] <Flannel> Pici: You're +o in -ot, just FYI
[14:23] <Pici> Flannel: Oh. thanks
[14:23] <Pici> I had no idea what you were talking about.
[14:26] <Myrtti> *sigh* my shell provider has no idea what's wrong, and nobody at #freenode seem to have a clue either
[14:26] <Myrtti> brilliant
[14:27] <Pici> Myrtti: I'd talk to a staffer about it.
[14:27] <Myrtti> I'm waiting for a staffer to wake up
[14:34] <Myrtti> they seem to be at a watercooler or something
[14:39] <Myrtti> I feel like swearing tbh
[14:57] <cdbs> Pici: what to do with perlsyntax?
[14:58] <cdbs> I guess nothing
[14:58] <cdbs> 17:56 < perlsyntax> this room a joke
[14:59] <Pici> cdbs: I was going to suggest that he either come up with a specific question, or ask in a more general channel.
[14:59] <popey> pffft, he gave it one minute
[15:00] <popey> well, a few mins
[15:27] <Myrtti> humdidumdidum
[15:44] <Tm_T> humptydumpty
[15:47] <charlie-tca> dumdiddlediddledum
[16:29] <Pici> genii-around: mktemp is good too.
[16:30]  * genii-around slides Pici a coffee
[16:42] <IdleOne> is #ubuntu-women still using BT?
[16:42] <Pici> yes
[16:42] <Pici> Why?
[16:42] <IdleOne> thought I saw someone ban evading but BT didn't return anything
[16:43] <Pici> Who?
[16:43] <IdleOne> _H
[16:44] <IdleOne> I could be wrong
[16:46] <Pici> IdleOne: I don't see any matches.
[16:46] <IdleOne> I didn't see any either, thanks for double checking
[17:12] <ikonia> perlsyntax is a known troll
[17:15] <popey> hullo ikonia
[17:15] <ikonia> hello
[17:53] <ikonia> spicemaster - another user who is persistantly becoming a pain
[18:14] <Myrtti> meh
[18:15] <Pici> Myrtti: still broken?
[18:33] <jpds> smallfoot detected.
[18:34] <Pici> yep
[18:34] <Pici> I gave him the same answer in #ubuntu
[18:35] <jpds> I felt like saying: "You're not special" in -motu/.
[18:37] <jpds> maco: We're speaking English?
[18:37] <maco> jpds: smallfoot's four letter word...
[18:38] <jpds> ;)
[18:41] <Pici> le seigh
[18:41] <Pici> er, sigh
[18:41]  * Pici wonders where else he has banned smallfoot
[18:43] <jpds> Fun.
[20:38] <Myrtti> I don't know what I'm doing differently but surprisingly the webchat isn't ping timeouting
[20:39] <Myrtti> would've thought it had done that ages ago by now
[21:33] <rww> IdleOne: "timboy_ [~store@67-42-57-175.eugn.qwest.net]" just joined #u+1
[21:42] <Myrtti> plimplom. good night
[21:42] <knome> night Myrtti
[21:52] <IdleOne> rww: thanks
[22:52] <Jordan_U> Xintruder just posted a youtube link in #ubuntu and left, no other activity.
[23:06] <ipopey> Did someone earlier mention _H being some kind of troll?
[23:06] <ipopey> Just saw them in -uk
[23:38] <tonyyarusso> I don't suppose any of you are really, really good with sed, eh?
[23:40] <Jordan_U> !ask | tonyyarusso ;)
[23:40] <tonyyarusso> FINE!
[23:42] <tonyyarusso> I'm trying to replace any instances of &, #, or ; with their htmlentity equivalents, &#35;, &#38;, and &#59;, respectively, EXCEPT of course where it's already an htmlentity, so for instance, don't convert the & in &#35;.
[23:42] <tonyyarusso> This appears to be impossible, or nearly so.
[23:48] <mneptok> swap &# to something highly unique, manipulate things, change the unique string back to &#
[23:49] <Jordan_U> Or use backreferences.
[23:50] <tonyyarusso> Jordan_U: explain
[23:55] <Jordan_U> tonyyarusso: I've been trying to do it myself and at this point I think a full language like perl would be a better tool.
[23:56]  * tonyyarusso sighs
[23:56] <tonyyarusso> Jordan_U: Perl's a no go.  Attempting to get an answer in #awk now.  (Need things that will pretty much always be available.)
