[00:27] Please, i would like the team cloak for my team in launchpad that the bot mentioned. i'm on the lubuntu team https://launchpad.net/~kanliot [00:27] kanliot: See other channel, you'd have to go for an unaffiliated clo9ak. [00:27] lol [00:28] ok [00:28] At this point. [00:30] kanliot: unless your team/group places a valid GRF-f for a channel here, you'd have to get an unaffiliated cloak. [00:30] (here being freenode) [00:31] its how i have an ubuntu secondary cloak (I'm an Ubuntu member) but also a cloak for my group/company (TrekWeb) [00:31] unless the ubuntu cloaking policies change or smth. [00:32] EvilResistance: Nope, it's still Ubuntu members getting it, or bots. [00:32] that's what i thought [00:32] * EvilResistance would expect a change in Ubuntu cloaking policies to be reflected in the ubuntu-irc mailing list [01:34] Hi [01:35] We are setting up the #ubuntugeeksquad channel, however should we have - between each word? [02:11] Could we please have ubot2 and if possible ubuntulog bots please [02:12] Firstly, did you follow this while creating? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/CreatingChannels Notice the "naming conventions" sections? [02:12] Yes [02:13] (Oops, sorry I forgot to note we moved the channel to #ubuntu-geeksquad) [02:13] You would have to send an email for the log client. [02:13] Okies, thanks Unit193 [02:14] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots has some good info, but as you know, I have no control over those bots or how channel naming goes. === Staffpony is now known as Fuchs [17:08] LjL: buona sera, posso farti una domanda? [17:09] Fuchs: selbstverständlich [17:10] LjL: not meant as an offense, but you might know that: the !list problem, why is this (almost) only seen with italians? [17:10] LjL: was there some kind of missinformation in a kind of magazine or well known web forum or such? [17:10] I suspect it's the same reason why Finnish IRC mafia is so strong [17:11] Fuchs, i have no idea honestly, but it's happened for a long time, so if it was misinformation somewhere, it went on long... i think it's just that for some reason IRC warez are very popular in italy, but i wouldn't know [17:11] kids show/teach each other how to use an app and explain what the app is for [17:11] oh, okay [17:11] it's just sad that everytime someone with .it joins and writes ciao, my alarm bells ring :( [17:11] Fuchs: the italian operators didn't quite seem to realize that it was only italians doing that, when i mentioned it to them [17:12] Fuchs: it happens to some degree in their channel too, but it seemed like they assumed it was universal [17:12] AlanBell posted this in #ubuntu-ops, and it seems that the problem is spread out on other channels/ircnets as well.: http://www.yetanothertechblog.com/2009/04/14/firefox-hangs-because-of-malware/ [17:12] Does !List problem mean that Supybot users wait for it to tell them list of available commands? [17:12] LjL: according to my grep and memories it unfortunately is, that's why I am asking [17:12] The meat of that is in the comments btw. [17:13] Mkaysi: in warez channels !list would give you a list of files available for dcc (download) [17:13] I was a dumb kid once. [17:13] * Mkaysi has been at IRC little over year and hasn't ever seen such channel [17:13] You won't see anything like that on freenode. [17:13] s/commands/plugins/ [17:13] Try joining #supybot and saying !list :) [17:14] I'm well aware of what it does for a supybot ;) [17:14] :) [17:14] ah fresh blood [17:15] LjL: well, thanks anyway, e una bella serata :) [17:16] ZarroBoogs: i'm not sure i understand what that link is saying honestly... basically that italians get infected by stuff because they download warez? [17:16] Ok, now I have seen such bot [17:17] LjL: The link sort of goes all over the place with *why* it happens. The information I got from it was that other people were having the issue with ciao -> !list [17:18] well it happens in several freenode channels, so no particular reason to think it was limited to freenode either [17:18] it definitely isn't (limited to freenode) [17:18] maybe it's just like someone mentioned, they search for channels (on any network, using ircsearch or whatever) that have many users, and somehow assume there's warez there [17:22] or don't assume, they just go in the big channels and issue the command just to see if someone replies [17:22] maybe I get the chance to ask one some day [17:22] I think this article and the two linked tutorials are the source of the problem http://www.mytechnology.eu/2008/05/23/guida-come-scaricare-da-mirc-e-lista-di-canali-e-servers-da-cui-scaricare/ [17:22] I assume that if configured to that usecase, the client would automatically reply with a DCC'd list of downloadable files [17:22] unfortunately my italian skills are between nonexistant and horrible [17:23] I can read [17:23] Fuchs: I can only say ciao and !list [17:23] AlanBell: the article at least starts like that, telling users that IRC is a good source for such material, but it even lists networks (which are not us) [17:23] Actually, I remember enough latin to get the gist of basic sentences. [17:23] bazhang: so do I, but that doesn't help :) [17:24] ZarroBoogs: yes, reading or listening to is not a big issue if I have some context, my french and spanish help there. But speaking / writing: no way [17:24] Fuchs, getting warez? or stopping them [17:24] Fuchs: yeah, but it shows how to find all the channels on a network and freenode will be in the mirc list of networks [17:24] bazhang: talking to them :) [17:24] hehe [17:24] and #ubuntu will be one of the biggest channels [17:25] http://tecnoblog.girlpower.it/p2p/come-scaricare-file-canale-irc-tutorial-parte-2 [17:25] :-( [17:25] The largest channel on the largest irc network. [17:25] Per sapere che file hanno questi bot, bisogna digitare un comando universale per quasi tutti i canali che è il seguente !list [17:26] [OT] What is "RingedSeal" in Finnish? [17:26] this whole convo is ot [17:26] Harmaahylje or in my particular case Saimaannorppa [17:26] anyway [17:26] Ok :) [17:26] bazhang: sorry, I saw the discussion earlier on and thought I might ask [17:38] * AlanBell throws StaffRingedSeal a herring [18:00] extremetuxracer? [19:39] I used to like it
