[00:08] how do i become op? [00:10] damnsmalllinux23: I don't believe there are any active calls for new Operators, but more information can be found on the wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorRequirements [00:12] to h00k: can you give me op? if you right click on my name and go to mode then give half or give op. and why does everyone have yellow dots? [00:13] damnsmalllinux23: no, it doesn't work that way. And the dots colors depend on the client you use. [00:13] like... [00:14] like I use irssi, so I don't see yellow dots by people. [00:14] hey are you are ubuntu? [00:14] damnsmalllinux23: perhaps you should check the documentation on whatever client you're using [00:14] damnsmalllinux23: yes? [00:14] The yellow dots probably represent voice, rather than op. [00:15] well can you do the share desktop thing to my computer? [00:17] damnsmalllinux23: For what purpose? In theory, I could. I don't want to, however. [00:18] can you please? i need you to help me with something so that you can see my cp as i do it. [00:19] damnsmalllinux23: no, this isn't a support related room. Do you have any other questions about the OP process? If not, please feel free to /part the channel [00:19] * h00k shrugs [00:20] h00k: see !canibeanop [00:20] gpc: *that* is what it is. I always forget that one [00:20] Feel free to add a better alias. [00:21] Pici: would be hard to find better less "ugly" alias to that [00:22] perhaps !opme or something [00:22] !opprocess [00:22] !helphelpimbeingoppressed [00:22] haha [00:22] * persia hands Pici some repression as a side dish [00:22] yeah...I considered that after :) [00:25] !canihaveops [00:25] an African Swallow? [00:26] !canihaveops is canibeanop [00:26] I'll remember that, gpc [00:27] !canihaveop is canibeanop [00:27] fine don't [00:27] * gpc :P and :( [00:27] d'aw [00:27] * h00k pats gpc on the back [00:28] h00k: can you right click on my name and give me op or half op :P [00:28] * persia points out that not all clients have such "right-click" functionality. [00:30] persia: then such clients are not full clients :) [00:31] when I right click, I get terminal options :) (irssi) [00:31] like building a car without seat belts [00:31] * persia stoutly defends irssi [00:31] !canihaveop is canibeanop [00:31] gpc, Note that not all mice have right buttons (and not all pointing devices have buttons at all) [00:31] why do I not get a response? [00:32] persia: a one button mouse is like a pool cue without chalk [00:32] * persia has a zero-button pointing device [00:32] * persia has a different 37-button pointing device [00:33] * persia thinks button count is a matter of personal preference [00:33] 37 buttons? [00:33] Well, that one is a bit extreme, maybe :) [01:01] In #ubuntu, ubuntu_ said: ubottu, am getting this error Its like this "Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and its use is discouraged.." === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth [01:21] ubottu: hug! [01:21] :( [01:22] !hug [01:22] hmm, shame :/ [01:25] Didn't that get removed because of excessive use in some context? [01:26] probably [02:05] gpc: you won't get multiple "I'll remember that, ..." responses because of the (somewhat limited and hackish) flood protection in Encyclopedia === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth [06:01] bantracker seems to have multiple entries for a guest account (removed for using an irc script in #ubuntu) [06:13] indeed. The list of removals and the ban accurately reflect reality, afaict. [06:13] * rww expected ubottu PM, munches cookie instead [07:28] @mark Smrad #ubuntu f-bomb and n-word after being told off for first use of f-bomb [07:28] The operation succeeded. [07:28] @help mark [07:28] (mark [] []) -- Creates an entry in the Bantracker as if was kicked from with the comment , if is given it will be uses as the comment on the Bantracker, is only needed when send in /msg [07:29] grrr [07:29] @mark #ubuntu Smrad f-bomb and n-word after being told off for first use of f-bomb [07:29] The operation succeeded. [07:29] if you make that mistake in PM, it errors out instead ;) [07:30] * rww knows, because he does it /constantly/ [07:33] You can avoid these problems by not marking things! [07:33] . @mark #ubuntu-ops tonyyarusso encouraging newbie ops to be bad ops [07:34] hehe [11:10] go in the ubuntu channel and tell someone how to set root pass and they will kick/ban you [11:10] quelle surprise [11:12] Wunderbar. [11:13] so using other channels to encourage users to troll #ubuntu ( ##linux in this case) [11:14] Haters gonna hate. [11:14] hehe [11:31] Gnea called the ops in #ubuntu (blakez is offtopic, abusive and generally not a nice person.) [11:32] hey, just doing research for my freenode group, what code is ubottu based on? [11:33] supybot [11:33] q_a_z_steve: Supybot. [11:34] q_a_z_steve: launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [11:37] strange, that link talks about their being more than one, and yet only talks about on on the page. Am I missing "page 2"? [11:38] The code is under 'Code'. [11:41] jpds looking more for explanation of features like the bulleted list for ubottu, especially for meetingology, not needed for -br or fr... [11:48] anything to add? jpds ? === bilalakhtar_ is now known as cdbs [12:21] JackyAlcine, hi [12:22] Good afternoon (UTC). [12:22] JackyAlcine, thanks for joining. [12:22] No problem. [12:22] JackyAlcine, enabling illegal acts is not something we allow in any ubuntu namespace [12:22] But we permit Aircrack-NG to be shipped in Ubuntu's repos. [12:23] just as if someone wants to crack wifi, use an unsupported derivative, or what not, asking for help does not override the guidelines, and the various channel policies and rules [12:23] Hm. [12:24] indeed, and if you visit #aircrack-ng (also on freenode) and ask "how can I crack my neighbor's wifi" you'll get booted [12:24] its more than just Ubuntu namespace policy, but freenode wide [12:24] piracy, cracking etc [12:25] Hm, so in that case, if you're going to something "illicit", better off searching on Google? [12:26] indeed. or join a network that has no sane policies, unlike freenode. [12:26] Alright. [12:26] Have a good time, then. [12:26] thanks [12:26] hah [12:27] erm [12:27] bit surprised as he's in some team or another [12:27] what is actually the reason aircrack-ng is allowed to be in the repos? [12:27] it's valid diagnostic tool [12:27] pen testing? [12:28] yes [12:28] the only diff between white-hat and black-hat is the intent. [12:28] their website clearly states that it's a cracking tool before they mention it's a diagnostic tool [12:29] So their marketing department needs to be fired. It is still a diagnostic tool. [12:30] mm-hmm. just wondering what the info in the repository says.. if it says "a cracking tool", then i understand the point JA made [12:30] mmh [12:30] !info aircrack-ng [12:30] aircrack-ng (source: aircrack-ng): wireless WEP/WPA cracking utilities. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.1-1 (maverick), package size 1541 kB, installed size 2776 kB [12:31] yeah. [12:31] maybe somebody needs to reconsider [12:31] ? [12:31] somebody being whom? [12:31] would you believe to evaluate cracking vulnerabilities, you need to actually try crack stuff? [12:32] bazhang, a motu? :) [12:32] any network device has the same capacity [12:32] elky, i understand, but it's still a bit awkward [12:32] not really [12:32] knome, perhaps you missed the whole context of this, vis a vis who was discussing this [12:33] knome, he specifically said he was doing "phishy" "illegal acts" "I'd rather not say" "PM me for details" [12:33] pcfreak30 in this instance [12:34] nothing to reconsider. he was asking for help with illegal acts. [12:34] bazhang, yeah, i missed that conversation :) - but anyway, was just wondering how the repositories so clearly states it's a cracking tool, and not for example, "diagnostic tool" [12:35] i don't disagree about the decision [12:35] knome, then you missed the reason for his response "but we have potentially can be illegally used tools in the repos, therefore we should offer assistance when people ask" [12:36] for help with their self-confessed "illegal , phishy acts" [12:36] bazhang, i got that ("But we permit Aircrack-NG to be shipped in Ubuntu's repos.") [12:36] i don't think that's a completely solid argument [12:36] but why does the package info say it's a cracking tool? [12:37] he wanted help with something illegal. we dont support it. [12:37] i understand and agree. [12:37] so nothing to reconsider [12:37] no, not about how he was handled. [12:38] oh well, forget it... [12:39] maybe we should edit the pkg info for x-chat to "this is a tool by which you can troll and annoy people to get eventually banned from the ubuntu channel" [12:47] q_a_z_steve: anything else you need? [12:48] q_a_z_steve: for furether information about the bots, please join #ubuntu-bots [13:54] please accdept [13:55] tartarfoofas, pardon? [13:55] did you get the DCC [13:55] magnetron sputtering system? [13:56] tartarfoofas, this is not the correct channel for that; did you need some Ubuntu help? [13:57] I will open ports and try again. thank you for your cooperation . [13:57] Its a forward. [13:57] he's in #ubuntu [13:58] oh, perhaps its not. [15:33] Pici, bazhang: it's a Hoober, more like. [15:35] rww: Same person? [15:36] rww, sounds right [15:36] looks like his crazy style [15:36] 2010-10-13.log:00:08:52 -!- Hoober [~chatzilla@pool-72-91-149-20.tampfl.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-offtopic [15:37] anyways, work time [15:57] @mark #kubuntu BajK_ language on quit message [15:57] The operation succeeded. [15:57] maco: We usually do banforwards to here in those cases. [15:58] ...which would neet the comment too [15:58] but ye, banforward [16:00] ok i think i just set one [16:01] done 36894 [16:02] huh? [16:02] it was 36893... [16:03] oh I didn't see you set it on nick [16:03] i'll remove mine [16:03] i set it so that if they didnt have teh _ at the end of the nick this time, itd still apply [16:04] ahh I didn't notice because you set it in #k :) === mnepton is now known as mneptok [20:57] Jordan_U: seems to have turned it off. If it happens again ban it. [21:38] Why do people get insulted when I ask them to use full sentences, proper capitalization, and proper punctuation? [21:39] Jordan_U: Laziness. [21:39] Not everybody is a native English speaker, rederecting them to the channel of their native tongue would be better imo [21:39] I prefer my answer. [21:39] you would :P [21:39] why so idle [21:40] rww: Idle Relay Chat, yeaaaaaaaaaaaah. [21:40] znc went offline [21:40] switch to irssi it has 102% uptime [21:40] IdleOne: I understand non-native speakers getting punctuation and sentence structure wrong, but some people obviously aren't even trying. [21:40] uptime with my znc is very good actually but my host needed to reboot [21:41] Jordan_U: I saw the question the asked and I also had a hard time understanding them. [21:41] they* [21:43] to answer your question, #ubuntu is currently full of silly people. that's why. [21:43] s/#ubuntu/the world/ === IdleOne is now known as gpc [21:44] this one is growing on my [21:44] s/my/me === tomaw_ is now known as tomaw [22:51] Can anyone please delete a paste I made on paste.ubuntu.com? [22:52] I accidentally exposed important personal data [23:03] we don't run it. canonical does. [23:08] So how can I get it removed ASAP [23:08] I exposed my password in a paste [23:08] Some_Person: Change your password, wherever you use it. [23:09] I've used that password *everywhere* since 2006 [23:09] Even if you manage to get the post removed you should *still* do that. [23:09] granted, it's encoded in the post, but still easily decodable [23:11] Some_Person: If you are using this shared password for things which are important, like bank logins or your own remotely accessible machine, then change those (and don't ever use a shared password for such things in the future). [23:12] I'm using this password for both things you just mentioned [23:12] I'm sorry I can't be of more help with getting the post removed, but you really need to consider the password already compromised if you use it for anything important. [23:12] Yes, I'm changing it now [23:12] Some_Person: That is a terrible idea, you should not do that in any circumstance. [23:12] starting with the bank account
