[08:22] Google+ suspended Super Engineer's a/c - didn't believe it was a real name - lol [08:23] * SuprEngr is now now known as Bill Boo on G+ [08:30] yeah, they seem to have decreed we're not allowed to use anything but real names, annoyingly [08:35] I feel sorry for all those good peeps using the name Ubuntu + firstname on G+ [08:35] i did wonder how I got away with mine for so long ;) [08:36] the thing is, they did a complete about-face on this issue [08:36] http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2011/02/freedom-to-be-who-you-want-to-be.html [08:37] * SuprEngr looks at ^ [08:39] hmmm... interesting [08:39] yeah, as many of the comments say it appears to be a complete reversal [08:39] They could insist you tell them your real name, but it remain secret, for example. [08:41] but end result of the policy is that e.g. "Super Engineer" gets suspended with only option given being to change it and "submit for approval" which "normally takes a few days" [08:42] http://vimeo.com/26180854 [08:42] interesting interview [08:46] love it! - as I haver always maintained.. sarcasm is the *highest* form of wit [08:53] indeed [09:22] good morning everyone.

[10:23] [Tony] The obligatory Hello Planet Ubuntu post - http://tonywhitmore.co.uk/blog/2011/09/07/the-obligatory-hello-planet-ubuntu-post/ [11:11] 'afternoon all. I foolishly started dd'ing a device to an external HD without specifying a reasonable block size. The drive is ~480Gb, it's copied ~340 since Friday night. [11:11] Now, I've read that ddpt and dd_rescue both have the ability to resume a copy. What I'd like to know is if they'll be able to do so with an image created by plain ol' dd? Because if so, I should be able to Ctrl-C this process and resume it with a reasonable block size and finish the whole thing quicker, right? === GirlyGirl is now known as Guest87880 === Guest87880 is now known as Girly-Girl [11:25] hmph, freenode took a while to connect [11:27] Afternoon all [11:29] popey: Hi [11:34] SuprEngr: Remove the trailing '/' from the server, make it https://one.ubuntu.com/notes === Monsterwizard is now known as maahes_ === maahes_ is now known as monsterr [12:47] I'm looking for person who be able to help me with native translation.
