goddard | Everyone should read this http://news.cnet.com/8301-31001_3-57397452-261/riaa-chief-isps-to-start-policing-copyright-by-july-12/ | 02:22 |
goddard | I thought phone tapping required a warrent. So internet tapping requires nothing. | 02:23 |
goddard | I don't pirate anything, but this still seems wrong. | 02:24 |
cy1 | goddard: Gosh I think you might be onto something there. | 02:28 |
goddard | it was pretty apparent people didn't want the internet messed with yet some how the white house just doesn't care | 02:30 |
cy1 | It's almost as if we aren't members of a democratic government anymore. | 02:31 |
goddard | democracy i think not my friend | 02:36 |
goddard | if that was the case I could actually vote on things not just people that lie to me | 02:37 |
cy1 | You can still put the mark on the paper, and the paper in the box. That's a democracy, right? | 02:39 |
cy1 | The box has "democracy" written on it you see. | 02:39 |
cy1 | Pay no attention to the millions of people forcibly kept ignorant who also get to put their papers in the box. Your vote still counts, honest. | 02:40 |
cy1 | It's not like advertising actually works or anything. People vote for what is good for them, not in a gigantic frothing mass for whoever has the shiniest tie. | 02:41 |
goddard | haha in Ancient Greece where Democracy was invented they voted on things not people | 02:42 |
cy1 | If advertising worked, people would spend a lot of effort on it, but since they don't clearly we have nothing to fear. | 02:42 |
goddard | well they voted on people to :D | 02:42 |
goddard | think they even voted on killing people... haha | 02:43 |
goddard | thats not so good | 02:44 |
goddard | man oh man | 02:45 |
goddard | and that is why people think RMS is crazy | 02:45 |
cy1 | Oh, and if you get a paper receipt, you can be sure your vote wasn't rigged | 02:45 |
cy1 | because clearly there have been so many times when people were allowed to recount their votes by the receipts they had. | 02:46 |
cy1 | What was printed on that paper is totally your vote, and nothing secretly being changed electronically, after printing it out. | 02:47 |
goddard | http://questioncopyright.org/ | 02:51 |
cy1 | "The ISPs are essentially forcing fans to hide their love of their favorite artists." <3 | 02:54 |
cy1 | The song I'm playing right now is STATEMENT REDACTED DUE TO A CLAIM FROM VIACOM INC | 02:54 |
goddard | haha | 02:55 |
goddard | exactly | 02:55 |
goddard | i guess they have never heard of encryption | 02:56 |
cy1 | Encryption is a way of hiding my love of my favorite artists. :/ | 03:01 |
cy1 | I like to think it can hide other things though, which will remove the power of those who do harm. | 03:03 |
bkerensa | wendar: congrats | 14:33 |
wendar | bkerensa: thanks :) | 16:25 |
goddard | does anyone else have problems following these instructions? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop/Procedures | 18:57 |
goddard | I can't ever update my profile. | 18:57 |
goddard | its asking for some api key | 18:57 |
bkerensa | goddard: You can go to http://laptop.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/profile and set a custom API key I believe | 20:29 |
bkerensa | I think also they may have recently launched a newer UI | 20:31 |
goddard | i hope so because this one is confusing | 20:40 |
goddard | yeah i went to that page but where do i get the key for that page? | 20:40 |
bkerensa | hi nathwill | 20:42 |
bkerensa | :D | 20:42 |
bkerensa | goddard: You would need to set a custom key | 20:43 |
bkerensa | goddard: Someone in #ubuntu-testing might be able to help better since I am not familiar with the UI | 20:44 |
nathwill | hi bkerensa | 20:53 |
bkerensa | nathwill: https://code.launchpad.net/~bkerensa/charms/oneiric/subway/trunk | 20:54 |
bkerensa | fun toy | 20:54 |
nathwill | looking | 20:54 |
nathwill | how the hell you make the checkmark character? | 21:03 |
nathwill | ^bkerenbsa | 21:03 |
nathwill | *bkerensa | 21:03 |
bkerensa | nathwill: uhh | 21:03 |
bkerensa | nathwill: like this √ √ √ | 21:04 |
bkerensa | :D | 21:04 |
nathwill | lol | 21:04 |
bkerensa | you just √ | 21:04 |
bkerensa | :) | 21:04 |
bkerensa | nathwill: I went to some ASCII site and grabbed it | 21:04 |
bkerensa | I dislike juju | 21:04 |
nathwill | hrm | 21:05 |
nathwill | yeah, i got that feeling when i reviewed them before global jam | 21:05 |
bkerensa | when the Canonical Community Specialist for Cloud cannot tell me how to properly deploy a charm that says a lot :P | 21:05 |
bkerensa | I'm going to have to go get me some hummus soon :D | 21:05 |
bkerensa | nathwill: good thing you skipped that party... the music was horribly loud and got a epic migraine | 21:06 |
nathwill | that's too bad | 21:07 |
bkerensa | but alas I was able to speak with Dreamhost VP of Marketing, VP of Partnerships and a Co-founder... Ubuntu Oregon is golden for sponsorship into the future | 21:07 |
bkerensa | and some FreeGeek folk were there which was cool | 21:10 |
nathwill | fantastic | 21:27 |
nathwill | well at least you re-upped consciousness about us | 21:27 |
nathwill | so that they remember what's up, and later no-one's like "what's this account doing here? blam!" | 21:27 |
bkerensa | nathwill: :P you do a lot of "what's this account doing here blamming" | 21:40 |
bkerensa | :D | 21:40 |
nathwill | i do indeed | 21:45 |
nathwill | it adds to my running tally of "what i saved" vs. "what you payed me" | 21:46 |
nathwill | annual reviews are coming up after all. | 21:46 |
cy1 | Aw, I found a bug in Linux :( | 22:04 |
cy1 | well, libc more likely | 22:04 |
cy1 | There's openat, statat, symlinkat, fstatat, mkfifoat, but no execveat :( | 22:05 |
cy1 | I can still go /proc/self/fd/<num>/<name> for the equivalent, but talk about a hack! | 22:06 |
nathwill | bkerensa, i might have to make a stab at creating a charm though, just for saying i did. | 22:08 |
bkerensa | nathwill: with a yahoo product ofc | 22:09 |
nathwill | totally | 22:09 |
nathwill | bundle up ycombinator | 22:09 |
nathwill | lol | 22:09 |
bkerensa | ;p | 22:09 |
nathwill | er | 22:09 |
nathwill | yuicompressor is what i actually was referring to | 22:10 |
nathwill | ycombinator i don't believe is a yahoo product, though the people involved are closely associated | 22:10 |
