[01:21] turn off a usb port via command line? [01:22] is that even possible? [01:22] there's a bug in 11.04 that does that (not exactly command line) [01:22] so he could wait for that one to surface [01:26] artichoku is very silly [01:27] indeed [01:27] @mark #ubuntu artichoku asked to refrain from making silly comments, does not seem to get it. [01:27] The operation succeeded. [01:28] what he's talking about is an actual bug though: the blank desktop using unity-3d [01:48] * [Kuntsleim] (MittRomney@jakarta.infinity-online.co.id): follaemos <----- GNAA /msg'ing [01:49] also in #freenode and #defocus [01:49] i can't help that [01:49] ie, in addition to #ubuntu [01:50] you got a pm from them? [01:51] well, I * Kuntsleim has quit (K-Lined) ah never mind [01:51] initially PM'd him to change the nick [01:52] I don't bother asking with nicks like that [01:53] well, worth a shot. then he shot me that really nasty PM in return (after changing nicks just a wee bit) [01:58] hi there [01:58] hi [01:58] just wanted to report that a guy on the channel is PM users with racist msgs [01:59] Tired of niggers?

[02:00] my [02:00] :) [02:00] "mu" arguably makes sense there :) [02:00] it does [02:00] cheers [02:00] thanks [02:01] You can pretty much preemptively knock out anyone with a nick like one of the presidential contenders [02:16] can someone ask LED2 to give it a rest and stop trying to start trouble in -ot [02:16] not responding to him would help [02:16] true [02:24] for the reference that was not not responding to him. [02:25] he's upset about something, no need to egg him on [02:49] am I missing something? he dd'd the iso to an external hdd and is attempting to install from there? [03:11] i just want to be banned [03:11] huh? [03:17] -> needhelp23323 [03:17] why is he +q in #ubuntu ? [03:19] Beat me to it [03:24] needhelp23323, i'm not an op in #ubuntu so i can't resolve it, but please wait for somebody to come in and resolve [03:24] bazhang, ? [03:25] pangolin, ? [03:26] hmm [03:26] not banned [03:26] nor in the channel either [03:26] not sure why you can't speak [03:26] is he +q then? [03:26] FWIW, he's been all nice in #xubuntu [03:26] oh [03:26] it says [03:26] You are banned from this channel. [03:27] try now [03:28] pangolin: works [03:28] thanks [03:28] pangolin, thanks! :) [03:28] i'm off to bed [03:28] ok, have a good night. [03:28] needhelp23323, good luck [03:28] welcome. [03:28] knome: so should i ask my question there? [03:28] needhelp23323, yes, please [03:28] probably [03:28] ubottu needhelp23323: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. [03:28] needhelp23323: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [03:29] from #kubuntu [03:29] needhelp23323: will let it slide this time :) [03:29] that was because you posted to #xubuntu and then soon after to #kubuntu [03:29] just keep with #ubuntu [03:29] and you'll be fine :) [03:29] k [03:29] thanks everyone [03:29] people will eventually be able to solve it out [03:29] and remember to slow down, and sleep too! [03:30] i'm out -> [03:30] good night [03:31] needhelp23323: if you would kindly /part this channel now, you are welcome to rejoin if you have any other issues with joining ubuntu channels. [03:31] alright [04:09] Hello jandrusk, how may we help you? [04:09] Just checking out the channel. [04:10] Righto, this is where you go when you get banned from a core channel or sometimes to report something [04:11] I follow you. Thanks for the info.

[04:37] !cuss > webnet [05:46] Hello [05:46] Your flood bot keeps asking me unanswerable questions [05:47] Like: "What language do they speak in italy" or "what is the last month of the year" [05:47] They speak at least a dozen diffrent languages in Italy, so that question is flawed. [05:47] lolcat`: Theres only one official language. [05:47] And the second depends on what society your bot is a part of, and sadly he doesn't inform about that [05:48] Flannel: He didn't ask for an offical language, he simply asked what languages were spoken there. [05:48] lolcat`: Have you passed any turing tests lately? [05:49] I have solved a dozen of capatchas [05:49] But I am yet to pass yours [05:50] He could just as well ask: "What is the meaning of life?" [05:50] At least some people get answerable questions like: "Write the number 2 in letters" [05:51] lolcat`: Well, I have faith in you. Just keep trying. [05:52] Type the number 9 in letters, not in digits [05:52] Actually, shouldn't there either be a ":" or "" around "9", so we know we're not supposed to write "the number 2 in letters"? [06:01] lolcat`: well, if you ever manage to prove you're a human, we'd be happy to take your suggestions to make them less ambiguous [06:02] Obviously I am a human [06:02] I am having an intelligent conversation, how many computers complain? [06:02] lolcat`: You've never dealt with my laptop [06:03] Flannel: I dishwashed my laptop keyboard, I know my fair share of difficult keyboards [06:03] I just bougth a 46" tv! [06:03] But can you fix that bot? [06:04] I consider it working reasonably well [06:04] It never has worked [06:04] I rememer in a log for like a year or two back where one op in here talks about me cursing the bot out in #ubuntu-unregged [06:04] And thaat is ages ago [06:05] works perfect, we /know/ it to be a bot. [06:05] you have yet to prove you aren't. [06:05] Ask me anything [06:05] What is the last month of the year? [06:05] Depends what calendar you use, and what society you are part of [06:06] I call bot. [06:06] For Norway December is generally considered the last month of the year [06:07] lolcat`: something else we can help you with? [06:09] In irssi I have used /window show #channel twice, now it is split in three [06:09] What can I do to fix that? [06:09] wrong channel for that [06:09] ask in #irssi [06:09] Never anyone there [06:10] How do I leave channels? [06:10] Doesn't make this channel a replacement for irssi support [06:10] I wnat to leave this channel [06:10] /part [06:10] But I am clueless as to how [06:10] aww [06:10] interesting. [06:11] doesn't know how to leave the channel, but knows how to do leave message (: [06:57] Ben64 called the ops in #ubuntu () [06:57] taterhead called the ops in #ubuntu () [06:59] hey pangolin, i see you're around [07:00] we all are, one way or another [07:00] cool [07:00] dax: see twitter* [07:00] that guy was in there yesterday, with easy to spot social networking nicks [07:00] 99.99% sure stumbleupon is the same guy [07:00] multiple ip's [07:00] aw, he already got got [07:00] i'm slow [07:01] pangolin: all webchat? [07:01] yes [07:01] webchat, looks like his home ip, and a server he has control of [07:01] looks like it [07:03] Hi. An idea I was tossing around earlier was for AntiSpamMeta - it currently detects a few GNAA Last Measure links and alerts ops to the issue; I was wondering if #ubuntu ops would find it acceptable for ASM to break the "no talking bots" rule (in this circumstance only) to warn users that the link is particularly dangerous and should be avoided. [07:04] So, I shan't idle here, y'all discuss it and get back to me, please :) [07:05] Feb 02 2012 01:11:39 * stumbleupon (~fwiw@pool-71-169-147-69.burl.east.myfairpoint.net) has joined #ubuntu [07:05] not sure how many ip addresses he has or why he has such hate for #ubuntu, but thanks for getting rid of him at least for now [12:57] bazhang: fyi there's a ban on his mask, but I'd rather see him trying to resolve that [12:58] *sigh* [12:58] oCean, indeed. imo that's the way to do, but he has a very hard time listening if it's not what he wants to hear. [12:58] err go [18:02] Which number is immediately after 3? [18:02] That sentence isn't even grammatically correct! [18:02] ? [18:02] And it depends upon the resolution your are counting [18:03] 3.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 is immediatley after 3 [18:03] lolcat--: do you have an issue relevant to this channel? [18:03] #ubuntu-unregged asked me that [18:03] oh [18:03] * LjL will change that to "integer", that ok? [18:04] And make it look gramatically correct [18:04] If possible, that would be great [18:04] i don't know why it's grammaticall incorrect [18:04] s/is/comes/ ? [18:04] A human would be able to answer the question as it is asked. [18:04] knome: Yeah, that would be better [18:04] and s/number/integer/ ... [18:05] Or whole number if since your users generally isn't too techincal savy [18:05] and the answer for the question if this is nit-picky is yes [18:05] Not sure about that, but at least it would be correct and answerable [18:05] Thanks in advance [18:05] imo it's answerable now [18:06] but i'm not the one administrating that [18:06] knome: So is: "What is the meaning of life?" But it doesn't make sence to use it as a turing test. [18:07] while we don't expect our users to be tech-savvy, we don't expect them to be nit-picky either [18:07] most of the users do not know what a turing test is either [18:07] Well, I do, and I know how to make one without asking questions with millions of answers [18:07] argument refused. [18:07] well no need to argue this, the question can be changed without much adverse effect [18:07] :) [18:07] LjL: good good [18:08] sure [18:08] the meaning of life must be to annoy everyone around you with stupid nitpicking about something that hundreds of others have been able to understand. [18:08] yeah, that exactly [18:08] i think we should pass his arguments for a turing test [18:08] see if he passes [18:09] hold on, how come ... [18:10] my script shows him/her/it/them unidentified but has a cloak and /wii says is identified [18:10] brain confuddled [18:10] no worky. [18:10] you ran it just as he identified [18:10] Myrtti: well the nick they're currently using is not registered [18:11] this may make some sense in some universe where my brain is not present [18:11] anyway ##english has confirmed "is" was fine :P [18:11] in a universe far, far away...
