BotenAnna | http://www.theverge.com/2011/11/10/2552190/senate-defeats-bill-that-would-have-overturned-net-neutrality-rules yay! | 18:32 |
BotenAnna | dystopian nightmare where the "real" internet is a darknet averted slightly! | 18:33 |
nhaines | BotenAnna: I'm also happy about the "anti-bullying unless you think you should be able to bully" law in Michigan. | 18:33 |
BotenAnna | haha yeah that was really freaking dumb | 18:33 |
BotenAnna | and mississippi of all places, in the midst of a heated election where conservative candidates resoundingly won their seats, resoundingly defeated a proposition that a legal person is defined at conception | 18:35 |
nhaines | BotenAnna: that's great. can I claim a fetus as a tax deduction then? | 18:35 |
BotenAnna | well not now youcan't! | 18:35 |
nhaines | Communists! | 18:36 |
BotenAnna | filthy satan liberals say that a baby has to be "born" :rolls eyes: | 18:36 |
nhaines | I liked the part where it would make IVF murder. | 18:37 |
BotenAnna | in all fairness, for the horrific things that would cause, there could be some really fun trolling | 18:37 |
BotenAnna | 20.25 year olds demanding alcohol and the like | 18:37 |
nhaines | 17.25 year olds voting. | 18:37 |
BotenAnna | exactly | 18:37 |
Faqtotum | i would have voted for perot | 18:43 |
MarkDude | Anyone in Bay Area feel like being part of a zombie comic book photoshoot on Sat? | 19:09 |
MarkDude | We have a makeup artist already, and the rest of the cast | 19:09 |
MarkDude | Meeting at salon in WC, then to Oakland, and then Lake Merrit | 19:10 |
nhaines | How did my server not have ntpd installed? Fixing now. | 19:11 |
nhaines | Well, 150 seconds isn't bad. | 19:15 |
dragon | MarkDude: didn't know lake merrit was on the plan. | 20:29 |
dragon | What IS the plan!? | 20:30 |
MarkDude | Well those getting makeup meet up in WC | 20:31 |
MarkDude | At Belle's studio | 20:31 |
MarkDude | Stacy and Lyz are getting regular makeup done at 10-11 | 20:31 |
MarkDude | then we are having maybe 3 zombies done | 20:32 |
dragon | I'm bringing an extra zombie. | 20:32 |
dragon | Just in case. | 20:32 |
MarkDude | No Nixie for this shoot | 20:32 |
MarkDude | Cool | 20:32 |
dragon | Yeah, Nixie is a busy chick. | 20:32 |
MarkDude | She is closing her salon until 1pm | 20:32 |
pleia2 | there is another Lyz? | 20:32 |
MarkDude | Ooops, yes, not the Princess | 20:32 |
MarkDude | Although pleia2 would make for awesome zombie.... Idk that is a project that you would be interested in :D | 20:37 |
MarkDude | dragon, maybe Sam wants to be standby zombie? | 20:38 |
MarkDude | Stacy already asked a few people in local bands to join | 20:38 |
MarkDude | Not sure on responses yet | 20:38 |
pleia2 | not really my scene :) (even if I did have the time, which I don't) | 20:39 |
pleia2 | am finally home this weekend (for once!), and I'm on call | 20:39 |
dragon | MarkDude: that's be a good idea. | 20:41 |
dragon | And that's the extra zombie I was referring to. :P | 20:41 |
dragon | But makeup. How'd that work? | 20:41 |
dragon | I can't really be there before 1:30pm. | 20:41 |
Faqtotum | lovely, someone's using the xmpp gateway | 20:46 |
dragon | Cougarswiss: Welcome to Ubuntu California LoCo. | 20:49 |
Cougarswiss | Thank you dragon. | 20:50 |
dragon | Faqtotum: easier than setting up an IRC client, I'd say. | 20:50 |
Faqtotum | i typically use pidgin for xmpp, so it's the same to me | 20:51 |
dragon | I wonder if this works: http://www.eagull.net/embed/ubuntu-us-ca-offtopic%irc.freenode.net@irc.talkr.im | 20:53 |
dragon | Not on my network. My company restricts outgoing non-standard ports. | 20:53 |
dragon | And this uses 8080. | 20:53 |
Faqtotum | i get a blank page | 20:57 |
dragon | To start with? | 20:58 |
Faqtotum | no, after speaking a nick | 20:58 |
Faqtotum | i said "ubuntu" and the speech recognition rendered it as "ubaldo" | 20:59 |
dragon | okay, so irc.talkr.im doesn't like clients authenticated by SASL-Anon. | 20:59 |
dragon | hahah | 20:59 |
dragon | I hope you're pronouncing all the U's the same way. | 20:59 |
dragon | and yeah, need to tweak this a bit more before it starts to support IRC. | 21:00 |
dragon | That'd be like creating mibbit, then. | 21:00 |
Faqtotum | mibbit is banned on freenode after severe abuses, mostly by one very bored british teenager | 21:01 |
dragon | lol. I knew it was banned, but didn't know that it was one kid's job. | 21:11 |
dragon | Mibbit was certainly doing it wrong. | 21:11 |
Faqtotum | he wasn't an official reason, but it was a widely believed rumor at the time, for good reason | 21:16 |
dragon | Yeah. They should just have made the IP addresses available. | 21:18 |
dragon | Oh, talkr.im is doing it wrong too. | 21:20 |
dragon | So one talkr.im user can spam and get the gateway blocked. | 21:20 |
dragon | But not as wrong as mibbit. Gotta admin. | 21:20 |
dragon | s/in/it/ | 21:20 |
Faqtotum | mibbit always showed the ip address and still does | 21:33 |
Faqtotum | talkr.im is already banned in a number of channels | 21:34 |
dragon | No surprise. | 21:35 |
dragon | and if mibbit showed IP, why did it go down? | 21:35 |
Faqtotum | appeared punitive to me | 21:37 |
pleia2 | by default it showed the IP in a /whois, the ircd had to be patched for it to show as a proper hostname, either way it was very easy to just block mibbit because of all the abuse | 21:37 |
pleia2 | we haven't blocked it entirely on another network I help manage, but it certainly is widely abused there too so we have to keep a close eye on it | 21:38 |
Faqtotum | more and more networks are blocking mibbit now | 21:40 |
Faqtotum | but that's much more recent | 21:40 |
pleia2 | we blocked them before freenode, but then loosened our policy | 21:41 |
pleia2 | our network only has about 3k users though | 21:41 |
BotenAnna | it's unfortunate because mibbit is pretty useful | 21:50 |
BotenAnna | i run a small irc server mainly for friends so i don't have more than one serious abuse attempt in history, and none with mibbit | 21:50 |
BotenAnna | but i see how it becomes A Problem when you're bigger =\ | 21:50 |
Faqtotum | freenode is big. | 21:52 |
Faqtotum | lilo got a lot of flack, but i never did get how he managed to manage it all | 21:53 |
dragon | ah, makes sense. | 21:56 |
MarkDude | dragon, You cant be earlier than 12:00? | 22:13 |
MarkDude | We have plenty of people without makeup meeting at Lake Merit - her shop is closing for this, and will re-open at 1 pm | 22:14 |
dragon | MarkDude: gotta be elsewhere 10am-noon. | 22:14 |
dragon | I'd have to cancel that. | 22:14 |
MarkDude | k | 22:15 |
MarkDude | Well depends on if stacy can find another zombie | 22:15 |
MarkDude | we have more townsfolk then zombies now | 22:15 |
MarkDude | like a horde of 2 zombies is NOT a horde, at least 3 is | 22:16 |
dragon | yep. | 22:16 |
dragon | could you invite Cougarswiss (Sam) to the event btw? | 22:16 |
Cougarswiss | Wait, what's going on? | 22:18 |
dragon | Cougarswiss: talking about the upcoming photoshoot. | 22:18 |
Cougarswiss | Okay. | 22:19 |
BotenAnna | 21:53 < Faqtotum> lilo got a lot of flack, but i never did get how he managed to manage it all | 22:27 |
BotenAnna | i cant speak for any specific drama here | 22:27 |
BotenAnna | but i can say this: having been in charge of things wherein it is smaller but very drama-y, I have a decent amount of respect for people who do their best to corral large oss groups because they are also very drama-y | 22:28 |
BotenAnna | and with oss it's even worse than just a group of friends, as they're often more sophisticated in using technical measures to poorly advocate for what they want and you have to deal with THAT too :( | 22:30 |
dragon | Interesting. | 22:31 |
BotenAnna | for any familiar with the bear gryllis meme "welp, i am mad about punctuation before my name in an irc chatroom, better drink my own pi--i mean ddos" | 22:32 |
Faqtotum | BotenAnna: very very true | 22:55 |
BotenAnna | ahahahahahaha, best daily wtf in a while http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/Truth-Enough.aspx | 23:55 |
