PiciIdleOne: ugh.01:50

IdleOnetell me about it01:51
IdleOneI'm going to see it this weekend anyway.01:51
IdleOneI don't care if I have to pay01:51
PiciOh.  You mean you didn't even see it?01:51
IdleOnenope01:51
IdleOnethey gave out more tickets then seats it seems01:52
PiciOh.  that really sucks then01:52

IdleOneI'm01:53

IdleOnenighters01:53
PiciCyas01:53
IdleOnenot me01:54
PiciIdleOne: I can't say goodnight to knome?01:54
IdleOneyou used the plural01:55
IdleOneI assumed...sorry :(01:55
Pici(Actually I did think you were leaving) :P01:55
IdleOneI know you did :P01:56
sprungCompletely ridiculous.02:03
sprungI did absolutely nothing wrong.02:03
sprungI ended the subject,.02:03
sprunghe continued after I told him to quit.02:03
IdleOnesprung: your attitude towards tsimpson is what got you here02:03
sprungwhat did i do wrong exactly02:03
sprungmy attitude? I wanted him to stop and asked him to do so.02:04
sprunghe did not, and I did.02:04
sprungwhy am i here02:04
sprungand not him02:04
tsimpsonI am02:04
sprungoh i see, you're in charge?02:04
IdleOnehe is an op and asked you not to tell people to go google. simple as that.02:04
tsimpsonsprung: to be clear, I was simply informing you of the rule in #ubutnu where we do not tell people to go and google something rather than _just_ helping02:04
tsimpsonyou answered the question, fine02:04
IdleOnewether you told them after providing the answer is besides the point02:05
sprungAnd i clearly /did not/ tell him to just google it02:05
tsimpsonbut you then spent time berating the user for not googleing02:05
sprungi provided him with a link to the answer to his question02:05
sprungthen I explained that I found the answer on google02:05
tsimpson<sprung> ibm, in the time you spent asking a question which i found the answer for using google, you could have alternatively gone to www.google.com and typed cpu temperature linux and found a plethora of sites. You asking in here was not only time consuming but did not provide a variety of options to choose from.02:05
IdleOnenot everybody has the "google foo"02:05
sprungthus explaining that while I used google to answer his question, he might find alternatives to my solution using the same process.02:05
tsimpson<sprung> ibm, you will find that if you go to www.google.com and search for what you are looking for, you may find the answer without asking in this channel02:05
sprungYou're going to keep me banned from the ubuntu channel until I do the following:02:06
sprungplease tell me what that is02:06
IdleOnesprung: I am going to unban you but I just wanted you to understand the reasoning tsimpson had.02:06
sprungand it is not ok for me to disagree. i understand crystal clear.02:07
IdleOneand I also want you to follow the channel guidelines, like we expect all users to do.02:07
tsimpsonif you want to answer someone, fine. but please leave it at that rather than then telling them how they should not have bothered asking and just googled it02:07
sprungi believed I did, and I don't get to disagree, I understand.02:07
IdleOneyou can disagree02:07
Flannelsprung: For future reference, even though you did give him an answer, and then direct him to google for more information, your attitude is what caught the eye of people.02:07
IdleOneyour welcome to disagree in fact02:07
sprungok you are right on all counts and i am totally and completely wrong.02:07
sprungi fail you win02:07
sprungi have read the guidelines of this channel before and just did it again02:08
IdleOnesprung: fine you can stay banned, since you don't want to discuss this like a adult.02:08
sprungwhat do you want from me02:08
sprungi don't have anything else to give you02:08
IdleOnein plain English02:08
IdleOnestop being a jerk02:08
sprungi'm sorry, i won't do it again02:08
IdleOnehelp people and then move on to the next02:09
sprungi thought i had?02:09
sprungi desparately want to move on02:09
IdleOneno you typed out 3 paragraphs of how they should of googled it02:09
tsimpsonthe two messages I posted were _after_ the answer, and were berating the user for even asking the question02:09
sprungagain what do you want from me, i have admitted i am wrong and you are right, and i have apologized and promised i won't do it again.02:09
sprungwhat else can i do02:10
tsimpsonsprung: all we wanted was for you to understand the rules we have, no special jumping through hoops needed02:11
tsimpsonyou can join #ubuntu now if you wish02:11
IdleOnesprung: thanks for you time and understanding02:11
IdleOneyour*02:11
Gggodlikeyes hello02:16
Gggodlikei was auto-b& from #ubuntu for no reason02:17
Gggodlikeand now i cant answer qs02:17
FlannelGggodlike: Have a nice day.02:17
IdleOneactually you got banned because you posted a DCC exploit02:17
FlannelOoh wait02:18
Gggodlikei asked02:18
Gggodlikewhat it was02:18
* Flannel uses lastlog poorly.02:18
IdleOneGggodlike: ok but the bot sees it as an exploit attempt02:18
IdleOneyou should have been forwarded to #ubuntu-read-topic02:18
IdleOnewith instructions on how to resolve the problem02:18
FlannelIdleOne: He wasn't vulnerable02:18
FlannelIdleOne: He just repeated it.02:18
FlannelGggodlike: It's stupid people being dumb.02:19
IdleOneI see02:19
GggodlikeGggodlike> what is ??..02:19
IdleOnewell he got banned for repeating it02:19
FlannelGggodlike: For future reference, don't copy/paste that into the channel, because then you 'help' them.02:19
Gggodlikeok02:19
FlannelGggodlike: It's people trying to exploit some weaknesses in some home routers.  I've removed your ban in #ubuntu, please rejoin!02:19
Gggodlikethanks02:19

tonyyarussofluxbox maintainer eh?  Interesting.03:58
tonyyarussorww: We e-mail our thoughts to the secret black box that is the IRCC, and they tell us what result we wanted.  :P03:59
tonyyarussoaka I honestly don't even know03:59
rww"A poll will be set up next week for voting", so I suspect we're not doing the (rather flawed) email-votes-to-some-group thing04:00
tonyyarussooh hey04:00
tonyyarussoI wonder if anyone told pleia2 that Launchpad is deep-sixing the polls feature.04:00
* tonyyarusso got a notice at work today04:01
rwwAnother reason to hope we're using Condorcet ;D04:01

Myrttiare you aware what kind of quit message you used the last?11:46
Myrttior do you type a new one every time?11:47
Homicidal-TreeI type a new one every time. What has that got to do with anything?11:48
Myrttialso, are you aware that banevading is wrong?11:48
Myrttielky, jrib ^11:49
Homicidal-TreeBan evading? I'm ban evading?11:49
Myrtticome now, I'm not a fool11:50
elkyfixed, thanks for letting us know you were evading a ban. you now have two.11:50
Myrttielky: ♥11:51
Homicidal-TreeYou only banned my Homicidal-Tree name. If you banned my account or IP, I wouldn't have been able to get in.11:51
Homicidal-TreeBesides, why was I banned in the first place?11:51
Myrttiyeah, that has been fixed now, the ip is banned now too11:51
Homicidal-TreeGood.11:51
Myrtticongratulations, you've won the lotto11:51

Homicidal-Treeelky: I wasn't even aware that I was banned until you guys tld me.11:52
Homicidal-Tree*told11:53
elkyyou're also sockpuppetting with their web irc service11:53
MyrttiI didn't know you were banned before you came here to ask why... logic fails.11:53
Myrttifunny thing is that you came here asking why you've been banned after you entered #ubuntu11:54
Homicidal-TreeWell, someone told me that I was banned. I tried joining to see if it was true. And I ended up here. Then I decided to ask why.11:54
elkythat's not true.11:55
Homicidal-Treeelky: What sin't true?11:55
Homicidal-Tree*isn't11:55
elkyyou did not end up here by trying to join #ubuntu11:56
Homicidal-TreeYes, I did.11:56
Homicidal-TreeAs Homicidal-Tree, I typed /join #ubuntu and was forwarded here. I figured I was banned.11:56
elkyno, i just removed your sockpuppet from #ubuntu. it wouldn't have been there if your assertion were true11:56
Homicidal-Treeelky: Please don't use technical talk on me. It confuses me.11:58
Homicidal-TreeAnyway, we're getting off topic. Why was I, as Homicidal-Tree, banned there in the first place?11:59
Myrttiyou were originally forwarded here to discuss your quit message which was profane and unsuitable for the channel11:59
elkyProbably for the same reason i just banned thewhateverfish which was threatening... rape?11:59
Homicidal-Tree....... Jeez.... can't you people take a joke?12:00
Myrttihowever, someone has since come on the channel with your ip with equally profane and unsuitable content and the original reason is rather irrelevant12:00
elkyno, no we can't. you might want to find elsewhere for your comedy routine12:00
Homicidal-TreeFine. I will. I still wanna know why my first ban took place.12:01
MyrttiI just told you12:01
Homicidal-TreeWell, what was the quit message?12:01
Homicidal-TreeIf you don't wanna say it on here, PM me.12:02
Myrttiikonia: this is yours originally, can you confirm that my assumption for the reason is correct?12:03
ikoniaapologies, not been following, let me just pull up info12:03
elky2010-12-06T12:51:44 *** Homicidal-Tree (Homicidal-Tree!caac7321@gateway/web/freenode/ip.202.172.115.33) has quit IRC (Quit: If I wake up tomorrow, will you still be here?

Myrttiikonia: but it was the quit message?12:07
ikoniayes12:07
Myrttithank you12:07
* Homicidal-Tree wishes that there was a way for him to get unbanned.12:08
elkyNot today there isn't.12:08
Homicidal-TreeWhat about next week?12:09
elkyYou ruined any prospect by trolling #ubuntu12:09
elkyno, probably not.12:09
Homicidal-TreeMonth?12:09
elkyyou'll have to ask us then12:09
Homicidal-TreeDamn. That means the 16th of January 2011.12:09
ikoniait means there is no set date12:10
Myrttithink positive, Holiday season is coming up and there's lots of other things to do12:10
ikonianext time you may want to drop the smart mouth attitude and lies, and just be honest12:10
Homicidal-TreeOh, well. I'm a patient man. I can wait a month. I can wait even longer if I have to. It was good talking to you people.12:11
ikoniaok, bye12:11

jribelky: I was referring to fmj in #ubuntu12:29
elkyah12:29
MyrttiI feel so old looking at #freenode13:00
elkyhah13:10
tomawwhat makes the webchat an easier way to circumvent bans now than it used to be?13:28
jribtomaw: I don't know if it's easier, just that it can be used to circumvent bans13:36
tomawikonia said it didn't used to be13:42
jribah yes, I'm not really sure how either13:45
jribtomaw: maybe the way users are allowed into #ubuntu?13:45
* jrib tries13:45
tomawah perhaps the bot that invites them used to check the ban lists first13:46
jribtomaw: yeah, I got sent to #ubuntu directly where as before there was a temporary room13:46
popeyi wonder if this is the change jussi made recently13:50
popeyi complained to him that people using webchat get dumped somewhere and it's all a bit scary13:50
popeyhe made some changes which did some fancyness which ended up with webchat users going directly to #ubuntu13:50
popeymight have been LjL actually. I think he set it so if you're still banned you don't get unmuted or something13:54
popeysorry, memoryfail13:54
popeyhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-irc/2010-October/001086.html is probably it13:55
PiciIf anyone is still confused as to how the current system works, I'd be glad to explain it.13:56
jribpopey: ah yes that sounds right, I remember discussing it with ljl at some point13:57
popeyPici: Please explain in detail, starting with "Then the earth cooled.."13:57
Picipopey: -___-13:57
jribPici: if I ban a user with a cloak, he can still access #ubuntu (and not be muted) if he uses webchat without authorizing.  Is this correct?13:58
jribin fjm's case he rejoined with multiple IPs, but I'm just curious for the future13:59
Picijrib: Yes, because the bot can't look beyond cloaks theres nothing we can do about that.14:01
PiciBut that would be the case anyway even if we didn't have this system.14:02
jribPici: thanks.  In my opinion, that's something freenode should handle14:02
jribgenius14:14
tsimpsonyou can ban by account to /mode +b $a:account_name14:44
tsimpsonthat way, if they are identified, they are banned14:45
tsimpson+ project cloaks override webchat cloaks, so banning a non unaffiliated cloak does work14:48
tsimpsonunless I'm overestimating the floodbots14:48
tsimpson(continuing to ramble) nope, it should work14:49
jribtsimpson: hmm, the scenario I have in mind is I ban "ubuntu/member/stdin" but then he goes into webchat and doesn't auth.  I believe if you don't auth with a normal client, you would still be banned.  But with webchat you can circumvent the ban14:50
Myrttitsimpson: errrrr.14:51
tsimpsonjrib: no, if I don't auth I don't get a cloak, so I won't be banned with any client14:51
jribtsimpson: no way14:51
tsimpsonthe server would have no way of knowing I am ubuntu/member/stdin so can't act14:52
jribthat's silly14:52
tsimpsonthat's just the way the auth system works14:52
jribtsimpson: but if I ban an ip, having a cloak would not circumvent the ban?14:53
tsimpsonyou're not banning a cloak exactly, you're banning a host (which is faked when I auth)14:53
tsimpsonjrib: yes, because the server can see my IP, regardless of my cloak14:53
Myrtti_funky realname I've got14:54
tsimpsoneg: if you run /userhost jrib, you get your IP14:54
jribtsimpson: seems like if I ban a cloak the server should make sure the ip gets banned (even if that's not the way it works now)14:55
tsimpsonbut that would expose the IP to everyone14:56
tomawwhat if you ban *!*@ubuntu/member/* ?14:56
jribtsimpson: do it internally14:56
tomawhow would you remove the hidden ban14:56
jribtomaw: I'd remove the ban on the cloak14:57
tsimpsonjrib: and what if I used a shared system, or a .edu block?14:57
tsimpsonthen someone else tries to join, can't, and no one knows why or how14:57
jribtsimpson: I don't follow14:57
tomawso you ban *!*@foo/cloak, ircd undoes that and bans *!*@1.2.3.4 but tells you *!*@foo/cloak is still banned so you can remove that whenever?14:57
tomawit'd make it nearly impossible for a user to find out what bans match them14:58
jribtomaw: I guess this is tsimpson's point as well.  I suppose ideally there would be a way to query which ban is matching a user15:01
Myrttimy brain is melting15:11
MyrttiI suppose it would be a good idea to take a shower now before I let something slip that I might regret later15:11
Myrttiargh, I feel like smacking people15:32
jpdsMyrtti: You might slip, if you had a shower.15:32
Myrttijpds: too late15:33
Myrttidry already :-)15:33
Myrttiit's the moisturiser I have to be careful with15:36

Myrttimy forehead starts to hurt from constant headdesking15:46
Myrttithere's a lot of fail going on the channels15:47
* rww slips a pillow between user and keyboard15:47
PiciMyrtti: You should get one of those gel wrist rests, they cushion the blow quite a bit.15:47
jpdsrww: Head→desk; otherwise there'd be characters going everywhere.15:47
MyrttiPici: perhaps using my penguin mouse mat helps atleast some while choosing one15:47
rwwjpds: Considering how often Myrtti headdesks, I assumed she'd perfected it as a method of typing.15:48
jpdsI say15:49
popeyI'm staggered Myrtti can type at all with those nails!15:49
Myrttipopey: shorter now, I tend to bite my nails on high stress seasons15:50
Myrtti:-<15:50
PiciMyrtti: Like Winter, Summer, Fall and Spring?15:51
MyrttiPici: like the past 6 months or so15:51
PiciMyrtti: :( Sorry.  Just trying to lighten things up.15:52
Myrttiyeah, I'm running quite low on the humour currently15:52

Tm_TMyrtti: I suspect the issue lies on ISP20:51
Myrttiindeed20:51
Myrttibut smacking a server is easier than smacking the ethernet cables20:51
IdleOneI say you walk over to mneptok and smack him, won't help your connection any but should make you feel better20:52

elkyikonia, actually it's the first in the list for most clients when searching, and they grossly misrepresent themselves to people who find them that way23:46
rwwperhaps we should make ##anubunturoom and +iF it to #ubuntu ;)23:47
elkynah, that's not really allowed23:47
rww+if **23:48
rwwah. the intricacies of channel naming policy escape me23:48
elkywe're not supposed to hold ##'s and forward them to #'s, but technically that only applies to ##ubuntu -> #ubuntu which iirc is staff owned23:49
elkystaff get discretion in this stuff23:49
