[00:00] <elky> tonyyarusso, your face is a stupid island :P
[00:02] <elky> bazhang, lolcatz i remember from #defocus, which is never a good thing.
[00:02] <bazhang> elky, thats lolcat , someone else
[00:03] <elky> sure about that? Not seeming all that different
[00:04] <bazhang> yep. that was my first reaction, they were both active
[00:04] <elky> ah
[00:04] <bazhang> the original "lolcat" makes zero sense
[00:09] <bazhang> ugh
[04:07] <rww> niko: you're about to get a bunch of highlights
[04:07] <rww> everyone else: floodbot bans older than a week old are getting cleaned out in a few minutes
[04:07] <Madpilot> in #u?
[04:08] <rww> ja
[04:08] <Madpilot> moderately quiet there, so not a bad time to do it.
[04:10] <rww> done
[04:14] <rww> fyi, unless someone comes up with a better plan, this is going to be a weekly occurance from now on. Floodbots have a lot of bans, and nobody reviews them, so...
[04:15] <Madpilot> until we get some way to auto-expire bans, sounds like a plan.
[04:16] <rww> throwing eir in there and autoexpiring them would be <3
[04:16] <Madpilot> I'd love to be able to set, say, a 48hr or 7 day or whatever auto-expire on a ban
[04:17] <rww> ditto. I know we're all about the "come in -ops and have talking time before removal" here, but 90% of the bans I set get removed because I don't want to be the king of the banlist and the users probably aren't coming back, not because the users drop by here.
[04:18] <tonyyarusso> rww: +abillion from me.
[04:18] <tonyyarusso> autoexpiry would make me very happy.
[04:19] <tonyyarusso> rww: I'd like to be able to say "Assume my bans are for 24 hours unless instructed otherwise."
[04:19] <tonyyarusso> Whether "instructed otherwise" means shorter or longer.
[04:20] <tonyyarusso> It'd be awesome if each operator could define their own default as well, since some people ban for smaller things, but remove them sooner, while others only bother banning for extremes, that then deserve long periods.
[04:21] <Madpilot> that'd be useful
[04:22] <Madpilot> ...and my banlist has it's second-ever occupant. root-tard or whatever it calls itself just attempted PM spam.
[04:22] <rww> (btw, if anyone isn't subscribed to the IRCC agenda page, this is a topic for their next meeting)
[04:23] <rww> Madpilot: yeah, known troll, banned from all the core channels by IRC Council.
[04:23] <rww> Madpilot: current resident of the club
[04:24] <Madpilot> yeah, I recognized the nick from mailing list discussion. How soon can we get Freenode to shut them down, anyway?
[04:24] <Madpilot> running a channel dedicated solely to trolling another namespace's ops has to violate Freenode's ToS in some way? I hope?
[04:25] <tonyyarusso> I think the only way for *us* to do anything about it would be if Canonical's legal department got involved, but I'd concur with the amazement that Freenode hasn't decided to boot them all on their own.
[04:43] <Madpilot> http://freenode.net/policy.shtml
[04:45] <Madpilot> specifically, http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#offtopic "These channels should not be used as platforms for flaming and trolling."
[04:45] <Madpilot> further, "You may not register such a channel on freenode without accepting these policies."
[04:47] <Madpilot> and in another section, further down, "We expect all members of the community to treat other community members with respect and reserve the right to terminate anyones access to our services should they be found to be in breach of policy. "
[04:47] <Madpilot> So, yeah.
[04:47] <Madpilot> Dear Freenode, please follow your own policies and do the obvious.
[05:10] <bazhang> codereaper, hi
[05:23] <bazhang> nothing via bansearch that I can see
[05:48] <bazhang> CptUnderpants, hello
[06:06] <CptUnderpants> hi
[06:06] <CptUnderpants> sorrt
[06:06] <CptUnderpants> sorry
[06:06] <bazhang> np
[06:07] <CptUnderpants> do you handel techianl issues
[06:08] <bazhang> #ubuntu for that. this is for channel issues
[06:08] <CptUnderpants> sorry bout this
[06:08] <bazhang> no worries
[06:29] <rww> Madpilot: 7% of lines in #ubuntu-offtopic are AtomicSpark O_O
[06:29] <Madpilot> rww, over what time period?
[06:29] <rww> since Jan 1st
[06:29] <Madpilot> Lord Dog
[06:29] <Madpilot> dude's going to get RSI just from -offtopic
[06:30] <rww> ( http://rww.name/pisg/ubuntu-offtopic-lines.html )
[06:30] <rww> nah. He's been like this on and off for years. He'll get bored eventually and be quieter for a few months :\
[06:32] <Madpilot> 65,000 words for AtomicSpark, and the next highest wordcount was 39,000? am I reading that Big Numbers section right?
[06:32] <rww> yes
[06:32] <rww> I note that he also has almost twice as many lines as the second highest person
[06:33] <tonyyarusso> yeah..........
[06:33] <rww> which... I would care more if he spent the whole time talking about flashlights.
[06:34]  * Madpilot notes that certain ops are kind of in those proverbial glass houses when it comes to odd stats in -offtopic... :)
[06:35] <rww> I ran the numbers. If I don't talk in -ot until around May, I'll be out of the top 25 :<
[06:35] <Madpilot> best of luck with that
[06:36] <Madpilot> of course, it's your stats app. "tweaks" could be applied...
[06:36] <tonyyarusso> If we assume that AtomicSpark spends 8 hours sleeping, eating, and otherwise indisposed, he has spoken a line in -ot every 5 waking minutes of the year so far.
[06:36] <rww> Madpilot: that would be unethical :(
[06:37] <Madpilot> we could mute you until May sometime, then :)
[06:38] <rww> Madpilot: I did consider that, yes ;)
[06:38] <Madpilot> actually, would +q stick to an op? +b doesn't, afaik
[06:38] <rww> +q and +b don't stick if you're currently opped in the channel, and +b can be defeated with /msg chanserv invite
[06:38] <rww> but if I were addicted enough to need +q'ing, I'd just remove the +q :P
[06:39] <Madpilot> well, yes. hmm.
[06:40] <rww> also, if talking too much in a channel is bad, +qing me in here would seem to be smarter >.> <.< >.<
[06:41] <Madpilot> TZ is GMT/Zulu on your stats page, I take it?
[06:41] <rww> yes
[06:48] <Madpilot> rww, your #ubuntu stats page is trying to claim there isn't a /topic there...
[06:50] <rww> Madpilot: the topic hasn't been set since before Jan 1st.
[06:50] <rww> was last set in December
[06:50] <Madpilot> ah, so.
[06:51] <Madpilot> your stats scraper only notices topics when they change, then
[06:51] <rww> yup
[06:59] <Madpilot> I see a few of our trolls get their 15 seconds of fame... mostly in the "potty mouth" category...
[07:11] <elky> I clearly don't talk enough rubbish.
[07:11] <elky> The damned bot has more lines than me!
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> elky: indeed - you should rubbish mre.
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> *more
[07:21] <rww> ubottu: tell AtomicSpark about enter
[07:21] <tonyyarusso> ubottu: tell AtomicSpark about getting a hobby
[07:32] <Madpilot> tonyyarusso, the trouble is he thinks he has one...
[07:35] <rww> the hobby is us :(
[12:42] <bazhang> sniffle seems less than helpful
[16:03] <bazhang> cdbs, you may be confusing apt with aptitude
[16:03] <cdbs> bazhang: I am not
[16:03] <cdbs> bazhang: check out the man page, please
[16:03] <bazhang> he's on 8.04
[16:03] <bazhang> no need
[16:05] <cdbs> bazhang: I hope I was clear
[16:05] <cdbs> bazhang: the manpage clearly states the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get install
[16:05] <bazhang> nope
[16:05] <cdbs> bazhang: Look at it PLEASE!
[16:05] <bazhang> 8.04 does not have that version
[16:06] <cdbs> bazhang: he's using 10.04, not 8.04
[16:07] <cdbs> okay, I g2g, bye
 Oh I'm wrong I'm in 8.04 server
 Any ideas about how can I get apt-get 0.8.1 running
[16:10] <bazhang>  info apt hardy
 apt (source: apt): Advanced front-end for dpkg. In component main, is important. Version 0.7.9ubuntu17.2 (hardy), package size 1612 kB, installed size 5200 kB
[17:44] <bazhang> ikonia, actually most torrent client support magnet links such as transmission
[17:44] <ikonia> really, documetnation must be old, does ktorrent support it ?
[17:44] <bazhang> not sure, not used it in ages
[17:45] <ikonia> it does from ktorrent 4
[17:45] <bazhang> http://ktorrent.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ#Does_KTorrent_support_magnet_links.3F yep since 4.0
[17:45] <bazhang> heh
[18:18] <ikonia> @mark #ubuntu UBXUER use of bad language and a real name of "Fucking Jew Face"
[23:55] <bazhang> is it wrong to wonder what laptop he was going to toss?
