[02:28] ChogyDan called the ops in #ubuntu (UbuntuFan333) [02:30] fail. [02:30] >>> "".join([chr(ord(i)-1) for i in "sn!.sg!+"]) [02:30] 'rm -rf *' [02:30] yeah... [02:30] people are silly. [02:31] Although it wouldn't run unless you surrounded the whole thing with $() or `` [02:31] or maybe it would. I've never used os.system() [02:32] I'm not about to test it, anyway. [02:33] Pici: I think it would. [02:33] you pass a string to os.system(). 'rm -whatever' is a string ;) [02:34] yep [02:34] rww: mmm, seems that way indeed. [02:49] I really hope "what." is a valid answer to the floodbot P=NP question. [02:51] I wish people would stop repeating the de-coded malicious commands that we ban people for saying. [02:51] * rww is grumpy [03:46] niko: incoming highlights [03:46] everyone else: incoming expiration of floodbot bans over a week old [03:48] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (FmODzgZlRkI appears to be abusive - 4.5) [04:07] Something wrong with the Floodbot? I am getting thrown out of #ubuntu all the time [04:08] txwikinger: I see two lines in /lastlog txwikinger in #ubuntu. One is you quitting with a "Read error: connection reset by peer". the other is you rejoining. [04:08] so no ;P [04:09] Hmm.. odd. I got messages by the Floodbot asking me some stupid question and claiming I am a bot :) [04:09] rww: Yeah.. I just managed to join again [04:10] because your client attempted to rejoin #ubuntu before you identified with nickserv [04:10] Ah.. bad client :) === jussi01 is now known as Guest39611 [08:08] jussi: I just noticed that we do not have any factoid about jockey [08:08] !nvidia [08:08] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [08:11] jockey isn't only about graphics drivers, so... [08:11] also that wikipage gives nothing about jockey AFAICS [08:12] hmmm, I wonder if we need a new wiki page too for it [08:15] Tm_T: but why do we need a specific jockey something? [08:15] between !wireless and !nvidia/!ati I think its pretty well covered, no? [08:40] jussi: indeed, but neither of those mention jockey or its usage [08:40] Tm_T: the second section on the link for nvidia does, havent checked wireless - I assume that does also [09:00] jussi: wouldn't hurt mentioning jockey right in the factoid, perhaps [09:01] Tm_T: perhaps. suggestions? [09:01] anyway, my brain hurts as I haven't slept much lately so... [09:02] jussi: "For ... ...use "additional drivers" (or whatever it is called in the menu) to check and install drivers.

[13:21] with who ? I wasn't really watching [13:21] slipkid08 at xx:18 onwards [13:22] I see it now [13:41] well unbanning jungli was a stupid idea of mine [13:41] unbanned one day and already he's joining to make stupid comments, guess I'll have to put the bans back [13:41] oh? [13:42] 17:54 -!- Spicemaster [~loc0@122.161.67.166] has joined #ubuntu [13:42] 17:55 < Spicemaster> hi viva la turky [13:43] less than a day, not a bad start [13:43] lets hope my faith in bacta/panarchy and the like is better placed [13:53] What a multicultural phrase. [13:54] he's a world wide phenom [14:04] you unbanned him? [14:05] yes [14:27] if AndChat says "why" I'm quitting [14:37] jatt called the ops in #ubuntu () [14:37] it's fine [14:38] z. (#u) is an interesting word in Spanish. [16:43] wow, a GPF on Linux. [16:48] GPF ?

[18:00] and the phrase "I could have read the man page but didn't" [18:00] so just rushed in [18:00] data is important 3000+ mp3's he ripped himself etc [18:01] you don't want to be told you've made a stupid mistake, that's fine, but stop telling me you want help but don't want to do what I tell you because it's risky [18:01] the reason you have to do the risky option is because you've made a stupid decision, and been lazy and not read up on what you where doing [18:02] sorry, [18:02] I usually just let them deal with it themselves at that point, no reason to keep talking about if they aren't going to be listening. [18:03] Yeah, if they're going to keep digging the hole deeper I'd rather not be the one who rents the backhoe for them. [18:03] Good analogy. [18:04] Pici: and that's what I did [18:04] I explained once why they where in the situation they where in [18:04] I then just said follow the advice or don't [18:04] as I'm not arguing it, you've made a bad call, here is your option here is your risk, it's up to you [18:04] "but I need this data....." [18:06] Which channel was this in? [18:06] #ubuntu [18:07] And who blew their data away? [18:07] remoteCTRL: [18:07] he didn't blow it away, he just put it at risk [18:07] I wonder if it was me. I helped someone with a `find` command yesterday and they ended moving a bunch of data to a path that didn't exist. [18:08] Pici: no no, it was a raid 5 array that had failed but he didn't take the used disk out of the raid array before swapping the physical drive [18:09] nothing to do with you [18:10] now he's pm'ing me with more and more info about why he had to do it [18:10] I don't care, it doesn't change the situation, so take the risk or don't, it's not a massive risk, but it is there [18:10] despite me telling him not to pm me [18:10] I'm going home [18:10] laters [18:10] ikonia: take care [18:16] A kick for PM seems a bit harsh.

[22:38] LjL: because IdleOne doesn't know what "fu" is, I guess? [22:53] He should have googled it first. [23:09] [Freenode] ==> Cannot join to channel #ubuntu (You are banned) :: I appear to have been banned again? Why was my exemption from my shellhost ban revoked? :( [23:10] necreo: exemptions from blanket bans, when they are set at all, are only temporary [23:11] LjL: Oh, why is that? :( [23:12] I was wondering if I did something bad [23:12] necreo: several reasons, basically they're difficult to handle, and you can't properly ban/mute someone who is exempted should the need arise. [23:12] necreo: you probably did nothing bad [23:12] necreo: but if you want to be able to join #ubuntu all the time, i'm afraid you'll have to find a different shell solution [23:13] Hmmm ok, guess I'll use the freenode webchat client if I ever really need IRC help [23:13] Thanks for the explanation [23:41] Couldn't he also just get a cloak? [23:41] not an unaffiliated one, gateway cloaks trump those [23:41] but a project cloak would work [23:42] I didn't realize there were different "levels" of cloak, thanks.
