 if god exist then why praying cant fix ubuntu?
[01:00] <rww> because God's a Debian user.
[01:01] <IdleOne> HOHO
[01:09] <tonyyarusso> False.  God builds his distro from scratch.
[01:11] <IdleOne> LFG?
[01:13] <Flannel> linux ex deus.
[01:43] <mneptok> "Linux ex Deo"
[01:44] <mneptok> (use the ablative declension for "deus" in that context)
[01:44] <mneptok> and sorry, i'll go ram my Medieval Studies degree somewhere suitably uncomfortable as punishment for pedantry.
[02:10] <rww> tonyyarusso: God is way too lazy, let evolution create a perfect distro.
[02:10] <rww> (named it Debian)
[02:13] <Flannel> mneptok: Pedantry is always appreciated
[02:15] <Jordan_U> Except errant pedantry, up with which I shall not put.
[02:16] <Jordan_U> And of course I spelled "arrant" wrong.
[03:43] <HowPinburious> How often do all bans get cleared at #ubuntu-offtopic?
[03:43] <IdleOne> they don't
[03:44] <Myrtti> there is no schedule
[03:44] <Myrtti> no autoclean
[03:46] <Myrtti> all need to be reviewed by an op based on a discussion with other ops and/or the banned
[03:47] <rww> hrm, think this one's mine?
[03:47]  * rww takes a look
[03:47] <IdleOne> it is
[03:48] <rww> ah, righty.
[03:50] <rww> HowPinburious: I'll remove it now if you're fine with following our channel guidelines and being a bit more... mature. Here's the link, have a read and let me know if you agree with them.
[03:50] <rww> !guidelines
[03:51] <HowPinburious> ok, thanks.
[03:51] <HowPinburious> rww: It came from the old habit of having very little consequence for actions online; as soon as anyone started disdaining me, I'd just change my username and that'd be the end of their ill feelings.
[03:52] <HowPinburious> Now that online social dynamics change fast, it's time for me to move on from those habits.
[03:52] <rww> *nod* #ubuntu* is a bit stricter and more structured than most, and some of our ops spend entirely too much time tracking people between connections.
[03:55] <HowPinburious> Ok, I find no ambiguity in those rules from what I can tell.
[03:56] <mneptok> HowPinburious: the other thing to consider is that the more you become involved, the more likely it is you will meet other users in meatspace. don't let an ill reputation ruin that for you.
[03:57] <HowPinburious> No kidding about that one.
[03:57] <rww> HowPinburious: alrighty, so you're fine with the conditions I laid out?
[03:58] <HowPinburious> Ok. Hopefully I won't forget so as far as I know, it's fine.
[03:59] <rww> HowPinburious: alrighty, your ban is removed. Please /join #ubuntu-offtopic and speak to check I removed it correctly.
[03:59] <HowPinburious> ok.
[03:59] <rww> Okay, looks good. Have a good evening.
[04:01] <HowPinburious> You too.
[04:05] <rww> (now that you're all sorted, you can /part #ubuntu-ops, helps us keep track of whether anyone needs help)
[04:40] <bazhang> looks familiar
[05:16] <bazhang> syberbot now in #k
[05:23] <bazhang> nice
[05:24] <bazhang> google it, plus he's on bt4
[05:24] <bazhang> evilpaeprbag
[05:28]  * Jordan_U knew someone was going to !fr in #ubuntu
[05:29] <Myrtti> HowPinburious: hi!
[05:29] <bazhang> #ubuntu reminds me of Sartre at times
[05:29] <HowPinburious> Myrtti: do i know you?
[05:29] <mneptok> bazhang: i rather like Sartre. please don;t be insulting. ;)
[05:30] <mneptok> HowPinburious: we have a "no idling" policy in this channel
[05:30] <Myrtti> HowPinburious: no, you don't. I was just greeting you, before asking do you have anything else I or we could help you with?
[05:30] <bazhang> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Exit
[05:30] <bazhang> Huis Clos mneptok :)
  <--- first he's using bt, then moments later MINT
[05:32] <HowPinburious> Ok, welp, I was not aware of a no-idling policy. (Which, the following may be outta context, is a good policy for parking garages and other closed structures with inadequate ventilation for vehicles.)
[05:32] <rww> maybe if you wait five minutes he'll be using Ubuntu and you can help him!
[05:42] <bazhang> is he making any sense at all?
[05:44] <mneptok> evilpaeprbag is straight out of Hamlet, Act V Sc V
[05:44] <rww> nerd
[05:44] <mneptok> "It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"
[05:45] <bazhang> heh nice
[05:45]  * mneptok shakes a spear at bazhang 
[05:46] <bazhang> oogabooga!
[05:47] <mneptok> UNGAWA!
[05:47] <rww> SPEAK ENGLISH
[05:51] <bazhang> is syberbot an actual bot?
[05:51] <mneptok> Somewhere on a South Pacific island. Sitting there and staring at the sun. His native girlfriend died a death quite violent. A tribal sacrifice unto the earth.
[05:51] <mneptok> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gnp6DHckL7U
[05:51] <mneptok> UNGAWA!
[05:51] <mneptok> bazhang: no
[05:51] <bazhang> mneptok, thanks
[05:51] <mneptok> bazhang: /lastlog will show you the client is in meatspace
[05:53] <mneptok> Please don't go to the vol-ca-no.
[05:53] <rww> I see mneptok's gone off the deep end again.
[05:53] <bazhang> again?
[05:53] <mneptok> rww: i was born without a shallow end.
[05:53] <bazhang> never used lastlog with xchat, did not know it was possible
[06:02] <bazhang> manster <---- troll
[06:03] <rww> something in the water today.
[06:04] <bazhang> he had several warnings
[11:19] <ikonia> lars ?
[11:19] <Myrtti> nah
[11:19] <Myrtti> lars is just thick, not offensive
[11:19] <ikonia> anyone who's an idiot on that range raises my thoughts on lars
[11:20] <ikonia> he can be quite offensive
[11:20] <elky> we were whackamoleing a dip.t-dialin the other day
[11:20] <elky> it's that champ
[11:22] <elky> ah, that was lars we were whackamoleing
[11:22] <ikonia> was it ?
[11:22] <ikonia> are you sure ?
[13:18] <Singham> HI.....can anyone please tell me which books should I read so as to become good in Linux and Ubuntu ?
[13:20] <oCean> Singham: you could ask in the #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[13:21] <Singham> oCean :Ok thanks.   :)
[13:21] <ikonia> I wonder what made him join here to ask
[13:22] <oCean> ikonia: he wants to be friends, and become an op
[13:22] <ikonia> I've never seen him before
[13:23] <oCean> ikonia: he's been in here recently (last weekend) asking for help on applying for/becoming channel op
[13:23] <ikonia> probably why I missed him
[15:48] <h00k> Lemon`BRB in #ubuntu has had warnings about ignoring /queries (or blocking them)
[15:49] <IdleOne> if he wants to ignore queries that's his problem. when he gets removed he will then understand why maybe it's a bad idea.
[15:54] <genii-around> I wonder if that guy was talking about Goobuntu
[15:54] <h00k> what's that?
[15:55] <genii-around> h00k: Ubuntu-based internal OS Google uses
[15:55] <h00k> Oho, cool.
[15:55] <h00k> I would even consider at least looking at it,
[16:05] <oCean> oh, have lag, sorry
[16:05] <oCean> and quite some :(
[16:05] <Pici> meh
[16:08] <h00k> ikonia: nice.
[16:08] <h00k> whoops.
[16:08] <oCean> * Adolf666 (~Fuhrer@82.137.13.222)
[16:11] <jpds> Unmoeoglich.
[16:20] <IdleOne> /cs fail :/
[16:20] <rww> IdleOne: 0, Adolf666: 1
[16:28] <IdleOne> they also use the nick muie because they don't know that xchat changes the tab name when you change nick
[16:28] <Pici> IdleOne: I just changed the ban because of that.
[16:28] <IdleOne> Pici: thank you.
[16:39] <mneptok> UNGAWA!
[17:38] <Myrtti> Calinou must be a telepath
[17:46] <mneptok> Myrtti: 2 warnings is enough, i think
[17:48] <Myrtti> I wouldn't have banned tho... oh well
[17:48]  * Myrtti continues to search for a scarf knit pattern
[18:26] <Corey> IdleOne: Why'd you remove eir's quiet?
[18:26] <Corey> She sometimes gets chatty.
[18:26] <IdleOne> Why was the bot banned?
[18:26] <tsimpson> Corey: b != q
[18:26] <tsimpson> ;)
[18:26] <IdleOne> I didn't see the bot do anything
[18:27] <Corey> It's already there, and I *think* that eir may have override anyway. :-)
[18:27] <Corey> I wouldn't swear to that, though.
[18:28] <Corey> +q makes sense potentially though.
[18:28] <Corey> Which it has.
[18:28] <Corey> Disregard me. :-)
[18:29] <tsimpson> Corey: the bots set +z when they quiet someone, and eir just so happened to be fail, so the bots could see the NOTICE and auto-banned it
[18:29] <mneptok> Myrtti: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-film-geek-scarf
[18:30] <Myrtti> I've got a halfmade http://web.archive.org/web/20071227182208/http://dabne.net/carolina/geekknit/linuxscarf-en.htm
[18:31] <mneptok> monkey like!
[20:00] <Pici> meh
[21:01] <Gredeu> coc
[21:03] <Myrtti> lolwhatagain
[21:05] <Gredeu> bastidrazor, is not a part of ubuntu
[21:09] <IdleOne> if he does this again I am banning him from #ubuntu
[21:18] <mneptok> "not a part of ubuntu" huhwha?
[23:26] <Jordan_U> !controls
[23:26] <rww> yeah, that's going to have to go away at some point
[23:27] <Jordan_U> rww: Why?
[23:27] <rww> GNOME Classic w/ metacity in 11.04 is on right, and GNOME Unity can't switch from left to right, afaik
[23:27] <rww> for maximized windows, anyway
[23:28] <Jordan_U> Interesting. On the bright side this is the first I remember someone asking about this for a long time.
