[02:46] <bazhang> @mark #ubuntu [brianp1992] (~admin@host-76-11-240-170.newwavecomm.net): admin refuses to listen to advice about mixing version repos
 bazhang, i looked thro my repos and i have hardy precise natty crunchbang and debian repositories, is this bad?
[02:58] <bazhang> ...augh
[03:00] <IdleOne> he still isn't running ubuntu, why are we allowing him to waste the channels time?
[03:01] <bazhang> heh
[03:02] <bazhang> this is actually amazingly on topic considering the last 48 hrs or so
[06:35] <mah454> IdleOne, Hello
[06:35] <mah454> can open my account at this time ?
[06:41] <bkerensa> mah454: Do you need some help?
[06:43] <mah454> bkerensa, my account 6 week ego banned !
[06:43] <mah454> bkerensa, please open my account !
[06:44] <Corey> Looks like it's an IP ban, not an account ban.
[06:45] <bkerensa> Corey: Does it give a reason and is there a expiration date?
[06:45] <Corey> My ubottu perms are a bit broken, you'll have to tell me. :-)
[06:45] <mah454> Corey, How can i join to #ubuntu ?
[07:00] <Corey> mahdi: The last time you were in the channel you gave an encoded destructive command.
[07:01] <mah454> Corey, I forget this !
[07:01] <mah454> please open my account !
[07:01] <Corey> " <mah454> Please do not run this command : $(echo 726d202d7266202a | xxd -r -p)"
[07:02] <mah454> Corey, true , I send this message 6 week ago ! and i forget this ...
[07:03] <Corey> mah454: Please don't do it again.
[07:03] <mah454> Corey, ok , excuse me
[07:03] <Corey> mah454: Okay.  You're allowed back in #ubuntu; please behave.
[07:04] <mah454> Corey, Thank you :)
[14:36] <ikonia> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudohttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[14:36] <ikonia> doesn't exist
[14:36] <ikonia> we need to edit the "sudo" factoid
[14:38] <DJones> ikonia: Is that not because the link repeats itself, splitting the link & the page comes up
[14:38] <mneptok> uhhh
[14:38] <mneptok> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[14:39] <ikonia> oops
[14:39] <ikonia> nice spot
[14:39] <ikonia> !sudo
[14:39] <ikonia> ah, I just did copy and paste fail
[14:39] <ikonia> and then reading fail
[15:34] <ikonia> mcloy 16:33 -!- mcloy [~scutishbu@175.110.75.40]
[15:34] <ikonia> ban dodging
 ##Ubuntuphone
[15:58] <bazhang> trying to register that. I thought #ubuntu-phone already existed
[15:59] <Fuchs> note the namespace there.
[15:59] <bazhang> the two ##
[15:59] <Fuchs> yes
[15:59] <DJones> I thought he was asking to be affiliated with the channel, its registered to ryuguns
[15:59] <bazhang> since it's not official, wonder if it might be ill-used
[15:59] <Fuchs> and being in the ## namespace, it's not for an official project :)
[16:00] <bazhang> ryuguns rings a bell
[16:22] <bazhang> oCean, UR NOT TEH BOSS UV ME!!111
[16:22] <oCean> one of these days...
[16:23] <bazhang> today is a good day
[16:23] <oCean> he has shown lots of unprofessional behaviour lately
[16:23] <bazhang> and no way that new non ubuntu channel is used for troll raids
[16:23] <bazhang> yep
[16:35] <mneptok> sry mah lolz ? baz
[16:36] <oCean> (:
[16:38] <oCean> someone forward veehex to ##fix_your_connection in lubuntu?
[16:38] <oCean> (or not, not much traffic there atm)
[16:40] <mneptok> "When you are reasonably certain your connection is stable, please join ##fixed-mah-connection to remove the forward."
 B0g4r7  sudo -i is a no no here
[16:56] <bazhang> since when
[17:07] <mneptok> AFAIK, 'sudo -i' is How That's Done.
[17:08] <bazhang> the rootsudo factoid has all kinds of scary warnings about that and sudo -s
[17:09] <bazhang> but have noticed plenty of helpers, including those in this channel suggest it, in lieu of enabling root password
[17:10] <LjL> there's no reason to use "sudo -i" if you just need to run one command, then you use sudo and that command
[17:10] <oCean> Sure, I would use and suggest it in cases where you need several commands requiring root privileges
[17:10] <LjL> but if you need a row of commands for some reason, sudo -i is just fine
[17:11] <oCean> indeed
[17:11] <bazhang> so hardly a no-no
[17:12] <oCean> yep, I'm not sure why monkeydust said so
[17:14] <LjL> the case here was with shell redirects
[17:14] <LjL> for those, you can do sudo sh -c "blah > blah"
[17:14] <LjL> but suggesting sudo -i instead of that hardly seems a crime
[17:18] <oCean> or echo blah | sudo tee -a blah.txt
[17:18] <Pici> LjL: you aren't logged in.
[17:24] <LjL> Pici: not identified you mean? but i'm cloaked O.o
[17:25] <Pici> LjL: /whois doesn't show any account info.
[17:26] <bazhang> does here
[17:26] <bazhang> he also set -i
[17:26] <Pici> Probably server weirdness.
[17:26] <LjL> hmm
[17:26] <LjL> i'm on mIRC at the moment, can't find where notices go :P
[17:27] <bazhang> ssl? or sasl
[17:27] <Pici> secure connection is ssl.
[17:27] <bazhang> didnt know konvy could do that
[17:28] <LjL> i'm using a bouncer, not connected directly from konv/mIRC
[17:28] <bazhang> in quassel it's a cinch
[17:38] <bazhang> seems to be some hash mismatch bug in latest update/upgrade
[17:55] <Pici> poking #canonical-sysadmin about the hashsums
[17:55] <Pici> dunno whats going on
[17:55] <bazhang> half a dozen reports just in the last two hours
[17:56] <Pici> yah
[18:01] <Pici> 13:59:38 <fo0bar> Pici: one of the us.archive mirrors appears to be bad, I'll take it out of rotation
[18:02]  * LjL makes Pici look at the mirror
[18:02] <Pici> :P
[18:03] <bazhang> what an a propos nick for the situation
 us.archive.ubuntu.com seems to be working again, btw
[18:14] <Jordan_U> :)
[19:16] <ikonia> mneptok: do you know this guy ?
[19:28] <ikonia> mneptok: do you have any relationship with chuck_norris ?
[19:28] <mneptok> ikonia: none. but he was asked to stop using IM speak earlier by oCean. /lastlog mah
[19:29] <ikonia> ahhh I thought you may know him
[19:29] <ikonia> I was going to ask you to speak to him about how he helps
[19:29] <ikonia> (assuming you knew him)
[19:29] <mneptok> ikonia: you just saw my first inputline addressed to him
[19:29] <ikonia> so I see
[19:31] <Jordan_U> ikonia: Still reading the scrollback, but Chuck_Norris's advice may be sound because it's grabbing *firmware*, not a kernel module. And the firmware which runs on the card shouldn't be tied to a given kernel version. That not to say that it was good for them to give said advice without understanding themselves the difference between firmware and a linux kernel module.
[19:32] <ikonia> Jordan_U: I totally get that, where he was going was fine, it was the approach he was taking
[19:33] <ikonia> if it was the first time he'd done it I'd let it slide but he seems to be a "google and advise" rather than know the answer and advise
[19:35] <oCean> ikonia: he does that quite a lot
[19:35] <oCean> suggesting, it might be this or that, idk, lol
[19:35] <oCean> etc
[19:36] <ikonia> well, it went from his advice, to an askubuntu thread, to something he'd read in the past
[19:37] <ikonia> not a problem with where he was going but he didn't seem to have any idea in what he was suggesting or why, that to me is dangerous
[19:37] <ikonia> at least without any form of warning
[19:37] <oCean> I @marked him yesterday, but he already has several warnings, pushes etc
[19:37] <oCean> yes, that is his m.o.
[20:16] <ikonia> hello Jordan_U
[20:16] <ikonia> oops
[20:16] <ikonia> hello Joselin
[20:16] <Joselin> hello ikonia
[20:17] <ikonia> what's up ? how can we help ?
[20:17] <Joselin> do you se a cr7?
[20:17] <ikonia> a cr7 ?
[20:18] <Joselin> yes is a friend of school he is conectate but i dont where is he
[20:19] <Pici> Joselin: You've been forwarded to the operator channel for repeatedly flooding #ubuntu
[20:19] <Joselin> i cant understand you
[20:20] <Pici> Joselin: You keep spamming #ubuntu. You have been asked to stop. You have not stopped.
[20:21] <Joselin> but i cant talk here
[20:22] <Pici> Joselin: #ubuntu is english only.  If you want to speak in spanish you will need to join #ubuntu-es
[20:22] <Pici> Do you understand?
[20:22] <Joselin> yes
[20:22] <Joselin> i question here but the people says of they dont see he
[20:24] <Pici> Joselin: You should be able to join #ubuntu-es or rejoin #ubuntu now
[20:25] <Joselin> i am in this channel
[20:25] <Pici> Joselin: You are in #ubuntu-ops right now.
[20:26] <Joselin> but i am talking in three diferents cannels
[20:29] <Pici> #ubuntu-ops is not for support.
[20:44]  * LjL makes Pici a monument, forgets to secure it, leans on it while Pici is passing and crushes him with it
[20:51] <h00k> crushed by self
