[01:51] <r00t4rd3d> is there something wrong with floodbot ?
[01:51] <r00t4rd3d> it keeps flooding....
[01:52] <r00t4rd3d> sets j , unsets j and on on on on
[02:13] <IdleOne> Could someone explain why the bots keep setting +j -j ?
[02:14] <rww> because FloodBot2 thinks it's in emergency mode and the rest don't. I just restarted 2, hopefully that'll fix it.
[02:15] <rww> fyi, I got a PM from GreenTree, webchat from user-0cdfjit.cable.mindspring.com/24.215.206.93, calling me a pansy, so it appears Gretchen from yesterday decided to wander outside of the range my IP bans are set on ;(
[02:23] <elky> and 4 of the 6 on @24.* are in #u
[02:24] <elky> though, none of them using webchat
[02:25] <elky> rww, was the ident still starting with 182?
[02:25] <rww> He's still online as GreenTree, and we don't share any channels, so I guess he's not bored enough right now or something/
[02:25] <rww> elky: 18d7ce5d
[02:26] <rww> gateway idents are a hexidecimal representation of the IP. so first two are the same because the 24 is the same, but the rest isn't.
[02:27] <elky> there is only one other webchat person on from 24.* and they're only in freenode and defocus
[02:27] <rww> nick?
[02:28] <elky> satsujin
[02:28] <rww> wrong ISP, so I think we're good for now.
[02:30] <elky> yep so ban 18*@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24*
[02:30] <elky> im doubting gretchen is going to install a client
[02:30] <rww> some of his previous instances were on clients. one was on a shellhost :\
[02:30] <elky> ah
[02:31] <elky> we'll deal with them when/if they arise
[02:31] <elky> just obstruct him as much as possible now
[02:31] <rww> I think banning any webchat users on 24.* is a little overbroad, personally. Would rather leave things as they are until he tries joining again.
[02:34] <bearblack_> hello i am back after about 2 days. 1 day you said for me to go away for a night
[02:35] <bearblack_> primal focus is to have ability to join #ubuntu in the future
[02:36] <bearblack_> if it helps, i  did throw up yesterday 6 times in a row
[02:36] <bearblack_> got the flue my parents had
[02:36] <IdleOne> how is that supposed to help us?
[02:37] <bearblack_> ubuntu is more than just an operating system. it is a community. almost a way of life
[02:37] <bearblack_> by me sharing with you personal facts of my life, it opens doors
[02:37] <Flannel> Howdy bearblack_.  Let me take a look
[02:40] <bearblack_> i really enjoyed that linux viruses page in the ubuntu wiki. it had a link to the bukowsi project and i learned quite a bit
[02:41] <bearblack_> one really begins to appreciate the thought put into things, such as ubuntu and linux
[02:48] <bearblack_> odd. no ubuntu open source females in florida
[02:49] <Flannel> bearblack_: I'm not sure how that relates to the task at hand
[02:49] <bearblack_> what task would you have me do
[02:49] <bearblack_> i can program
[02:53] <rww> elky: I think for ircd-eight, I'll ask for $troll extban feature. Magically stops any collateral damage ;(
[02:55] <rww> ubottu: notreally-#ubuntu-offtopic > NixGeek
[02:55] <bearblack_> so whats up
[02:56] <Flannel> bearblack_: What have you done over the past few days, besides getting sick, that you think would warrant the ability to rejoin #ubuntu today?
[02:57] <bearblack_> i have learned to be more tolerant
[02:57] <bearblack_> and laugh at myself and not be so serious all the time
[02:57] <bearblack_> i actually want friends now. not fame.
[02:59] <Flannel> bearblack_: How is this different than the last time or two you've been in this same situation?
[02:59] <bearblack_> this time i have no doubts. i am simply a changed person.
[03:00] <bearblack_> before i would overload my self with expectations of what i need to be worth something
[03:00] <bearblack_> but now i know that every little thing i can do can count and there is no pressure
[03:03] <Flannel> bearblack_: And if you were let into #ubuntu, you'd be able to actually follow the code of conduct and IRC guidelines?  I know you've said at least twice in the past that you've read and agree to them.
[03:07] <bearblack_> yes. the only thing i will do is ask questions or provide solutions if i have a good answer
[03:08] <Flannel> bearblack_: Alright.  I've gone ahead and removed your ban in #ubuntu.  Please join there and say something so I can verify I've got everything
[03:09] <bearblack_> it should of shown up
[03:11] <Flannel> bearblack_: Yep.  Alright, you're all set up it seems.
[03:12] <bearblack_> ty and have a nice night/day. going to go read stuff
[03:12] <IdleOne> marcules: anything we can help you with?
[03:13] <marcules> Äh? No?
[03:13] <marcules> Don't know which channel redirected me here
[03:14] <rww> marcules: one sec, I'm checking into it
[03:14] <IdleOne> you were sent here because of a inappropriate comment you made in #ubuntu
[03:15] <marcules> what
[03:15] <rww> IdleOne: I'll handle it, it's my ban
[03:15] <IdleOne> no problem
[03:15] <rww> marcules: I banforwarded you from #ubuntu because your /quit message was inappropriate for #ubuntu.
[03:16] <marcules> I don't even know what my current quit message is… let me check
[03:16] <rww> marcules: Part of our channel guidelines is that messages, including /quit messages, need to be family friendly. The one you had was about some celebrity (I think?) and asking for nude photos.
[03:16] <marcules> lol :D
[03:16] <rww> If you change it, I'll remove the ban.
[03:16] <marcules> I'll translate it, if you'd like ^^
[03:17] <rww> I had Google do that already. Unless my summary above is wrong, I think we get the idea.
[03:18] <marcules> It's about Wikileaks (Vici Lieks) and a boulevard-"paper" here
[03:19] <marcules> But I could exclude #ubuntu from my autojoin-list if you'd like
[03:21] <rww> marcules: Hrm, now that you've enlightened me on what a Vici Lieks is... with the caveat that it's rather borderline, I'll remove the ban. I'd prefer it if the /quit message changed, but I'm not going to exclude you from #ubuntu for it.
[03:22] <marcules> I'd change it for #ubuntu but xchat doesn't support channel specific quit-messages
[03:22] <rww> indeed. It's not supported by the IRC protocol itself, in fact :(
[03:23] <marcules> hm :\
[03:23] <marcules> I'll look for another one, but I found this rather amusing :D
[03:23] <Jordan_U> marcules: You can always leave #ubuntu before quitting.
[03:23] <marcules> yeah, but I'm not sure if I'll remember this every time
[03:24] <rww> I'll admit, I find it amusing. The issue is that since it's borderline, you might end up getting pulled in here again by another op with a different (but still understandable, imho) definition of "family friendly".
[03:26] <marcules> It'll be changed ;)
[03:27] <rww> alrighty. thanks for understanding :)
[03:29] <rww> either way, I've removed your ban, so you're free to /join #ubuntu, with the caveat that if this comes up again, I'll defer to the judgement of the other op.
[03:37] <IdleOne> marcules: I am glad everything is resolved now. Kindly part the channel as per the no idling policy in this channel. Thank you.
[03:39] <elky> IdleOne, i know you didn't mean it in this way, but "kindly <do action>" is read in the tone of "<do action> kthxbai!" to many folks.
[03:39] <elky> Just something to be aware of.
[03:40] <rww> elky: did you bring enough pastries for the whole class? ;(
[03:40] <IdleOne> will keep that in mind
[03:40] <IdleOne> thank you elky
[03:40] <Flannel> rww: I hope so! I'm hungry!
[03:40] <IdleOne> I have canollis in the fridge
[03:40]  * IdleOne is embarrassed to say i am not sure about the spelling
[03:41] <elky> IdleOne, no problem. I think its interpretation is taken from some tv show i'm not familiar with or something, but i know it's been sore for some folks
[03:41] <elky> IdleOne, two n's i think
[03:41] <IdleOne> two n's 1 l
[03:41] <IdleOne> anyway they are yummy
[03:43] <Flannel> IdleOne: Cinnamon rolls are better
[03:43] <IdleOne> in the morning with coffee, yup
[03:48] <elky> i was opped up?
[03:48] <IdleOne> for a minute
[03:48] <elky> oh, probably leftover from removing gretchen's ban for this channe
[03:49] <Flannel> elky: For 17 hours!
[03:49] <Flannel> and yes
[03:49] <Flannel> er, no.  From setting it, looks like.
[03:50] <Flannel> oh wait, theyre next to each other, from removing it! pay no attention to my previous comment
[03:50] <elky> Flannel, i removed it,
[03:50] <Flannel> elky: You set it too
[03:50] <elky> well yes, but chicken, egg, etc
[03:50] <rww> chicken
[03:50] <elky> bwark!
[03:50] <IdleOne> haha
[07:00] <rww> phonex01 really likes sentences that end in !
[07:02] <mneptok> http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=&sll=35.196151,-106.731448&sspn=0.014834,0.033023&ie=UTF8&ll=35.196133,-106.731448&spn=0.014834,0.033023&z=16
[07:02] <mneptok> note the 2 major north-south streets
[07:03] <mneptok> allows fun signage like - http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4097/4747440725_09fed08e38.jpg
[07:03] <mneptok> i like this town. :)
[07:05]  * mneptok wanders over to -motu
[07:06]  * rww starts -motr
[07:08] <tonyyarusso> lol
[07:08] <mneptok> wait until april 1
[07:11] <elky> tonyyarusso, How's your australian geography?
[07:11] <elky> Tell me what's wrong with this picture: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/12/30/article-0-0C9A810A000005DC-731_634x574.jpg
[07:11] <tonyyarusso> elky: terrible, but I'll look anyway
[07:11] <mneptok> elky: are Cylons coming?
[07:12] <tonyyarusso> wth is "Capricornia"?
[07:12] <elky> Yar.
[07:12] <elky> This is precisely our query too.
[07:12] <elky> WTG DailyFail
[07:12] <rww> "The people of northern North Queensland, sometimes called "Far North Queensland" [8] or "Capricornia", have long held views and self-identification distinct from that of the southern parts of the state."
[07:12] <rww> it's the Quebec of Australia!
[07:12] <mneptok> hostie ...
[07:13] <elky> Like seriously where did they /find/ that map?
[07:13] <Flannel> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Queensland
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> rww: well done
[07:14] <tonyyarusso> Poor parallel though.  Quebec wants to be a separate country, not a separate state within a country.  It's already its own province.
[07:14] <elky> Tell them to call the dailymail
[07:14] <tonyyarusso> More accurate would be to compare it to the calls for northern Ontario to split from southern Ontario.
[07:14] <rww> tonyyarusso: one step at a time!
[07:15] <Flannel> While we're at it, should cut California in half too!
[07:15] <tonyyarusso> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Ontario#Secession_movement
[07:15] <rww> I like how none of the comments on that article mention Capricornia, and 90% of them are about global climate change
[07:16]  * tonyyarusso is mad about climate-induced oddities
[07:17] <tonyyarusso> We got two feet of beautiful snow, and then lost of bunch of it when it decided to shoot up above freezing and dump inches of RAIN on it.
[09:11] <maco> tonyyarusso: friday i was skiing and decided i'd do 30 runs then go in. as i was riding the lift for run #30, it started raining. good call, eh?
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> indeed
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> I had to throw tarps over my work-in-progress quinzee to try to save it from total destruction
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> It's probably all ice now though :(
[09:34]  * rww glances at elky, puts popcorn in microwave, watches -bugs
[09:34] <elky> is this someone you're familiar with?
[09:35] <rww> no, but redirecting people who sound like five year olds to a dev channel usually ends badly/amusingly/both
[09:35] <elky> this is true
[09:35] <rww> (and yes, he did actually join there)
[11:48] <elky> rww, he's bored again
[11:49] <elky> lol
[11:49] <rww> he said he wasn't using Windows and then the room got silent for a while and I got bored and left
[11:50] <rww> s/Windows/Ubuntu/
[11:54] <elky> Ok. I'm diagnosing "troll".
[11:54] <rww> nah, he's actually on an iPhone
[11:54] <rww> CTCP VERSION reply from Will_k: Colloquy 1.3.2 (5075) - iPhone OS 4.1 (ARM) - http://colloquy.mobi
[11:55] <elky> Sure, but the first thing any windows user does when bored and on an iphone is to whine about boredom to a bunch of Linux geeks?
[11:55] <elky> And ask for something to do.
[11:55] <rww> Take a survey of OS usage in #ubuntu-offtopic. Pretty sure about half of the active users don't use Ubuntu ;(
[11:56] <elky> Sure, but this kid isn't even a regular
[11:56] <elky> he's just appeared out of nowhere
[11:56] <rww> he's getting removed from the channel next time he fails at language appropriateness, but he's not a troll because of OS
[11:56] <rww> it's eternal january. the winter school vacation that feels like it's never going to end ;(
[11:57] <elky> i didn't say he was a troll because of OS. i said it because he's wandered in from nowhere and whined about boredom and turned down every suggestion since
[11:59] <rww> fun fact: he averages 3 words per line. seriously.
[12:00] <rww> oh, wait, no, 4.2 words. my eye skipped a row.
[12:06] <rww> how did chickens turn into meth. that channel is insane.
[12:12] <elky> are you in agreement with me yet?
[12:13] <rww> on a related note, I absolutely adore that new ubottu feature where it parses removal messages.
[12:17] <elky> I'm thinking about going in to someone's community area and demanding to be fanned and fed grapes. Then, when i don't get enough attention, i'll accuse them all of being rude. Who wants to join me?
[12:47] <Pici> ubottu: test
[12:47] <rww> ubottu: why do you hate me
[12:47]  * rww shrugs, glitch in the matrix
[14:19] <Pici> rww: around?
[15:23] <LjL> genii-around: hey. happy 2011 :)
[15:23] <genii-around> LjL: You too!
[15:23]  * genii-around makes a fresh pot of coffee for everyone
[15:23] <jussi> genii-around: !! :D
[15:24]  * genii-around hugs jussi
[15:24]  * jussi hugs genii-around
[15:24] <jussi> genii-around: how are things going? you ok?
[15:24] <LjL> genii-around: we bought a nespresso machine :o
[15:26] <genii-around> jussi: For the most part things are all right. Trying to ease back into work after being gone so long and i'm still having some physical probs but nothing drastic
[15:27] <jussi> genii-around: great to hear. hope things continue to improve
[15:27] <LjL> but most importantly, can you drink coffee yet? :(
[15:28] <genii-around> LjL: My doc says 2-3 small cups a day is all right. But not like i was drinking it before
[15:29] <LjL> genii-around: well trade quantity for quality then! get a good manual espresso machine and learn to operate it to get awesome coffee :P
[15:33] <genii-around> I actually have a bodum ( or french press ) here
[15:33] <jussi> LjL: Ive a stovetop expresso :)
[15:35] <LjL> genii-around: french press doesn't make very good coffee, at least in my mom's opinion who is quite a bit more of a coffee connoiseur than me. if you like american-style coffee though, i keep hearing about this weird, extremely simple (but not exceptionally cheap) "aeropress" thing
[15:35]  * genii-around googles
[16:48] <Pici> aeropress sounds like a wordpress competitor.
[16:50]  * charlie-tca thinks aeropress should be a newpaper about airplanes
[16:54] <LjL> Pici sounds like something you squeeze
[16:54]  * LjL squeezes Pici
[17:32] <h00k> oh hey. coffee.
[17:32] <h00k> genii-around!!
[17:32] <h00k> !11one!
[17:32]  * genii-around slides h00k a coffee
[17:33] <h00k> I am actually out...thank you
[17:34] <genii-around> :)
[17:35] <mneptok> genii-around: i actually *am* drinking coffee
[17:36]  * mneptok just ground and cone-dripped a carafe
[17:38] <genii-around> I had two cups already today, saving my third doctor-approved cup of coffee for just after lunchtime...
[17:38] <genii-around> I could drink decaf in meantime but what's the point, really...
[17:40] <mneptok> i have 2 large mugs in the morning
[17:43] <genii-around> mneptok: I'd like to have as much coffee as before but I'm on a caffeine restricted diet now :(
[17:45] <h00k> I had two travel mugs of coffee separated by a red-bull.
[17:45] <genii-around> Meh.
[17:46] <h00k> so far. next pot is on.
[17:47]  * genii-around vicariously enjoys his coffee through h00k and mneptok 
[19:19] <Tm_T> oh, unagi is back
[19:32] <Pici> meh
[19:45] <Myrtti> what has gone into people again?
[19:45]  * Pici shrugs
[19:45] <Tm_T> monday?
[19:45] <Pici> Yeah
[19:45] <Myrtti> suppose so...
[19:46] <charlie-tca> new year, got to start over?
[19:46]  * Tm_T had worse than typical monday <3
[19:48] <mneptok> Tm_T: quiet. it's just past noon here. don't curse me.
[20:02] <Myrtti> not from 9.04, surely?
[20:04] <charlie-tca> I didn't think we moved to ext4 until maverick?
[20:13] <Pici> hrm.
[20:13] <Pici> !noroot
[20:14] <Pici> I could have sworn we had something in there about only setting it if you were warned of its implications beforehand.
[20:15] <Pici> rww ^^ looks like you were the last editor
[20:23] <LjL> rww: yer in trouble
[20:24] <topyli> heh
