bkerensabazhang: hah you been watching too ;)06:39
bazhangbkerensa, much to my chagrin :)06:40
bkerensa;p06:41
bazhang<Ecto> Anyone ever used ubuntu satanic edition   <--- worst fears, confirmed06:46
init[dot]dany humans?06:47
bkerensainit[dot]d: How can we help you?06:47
init[dot]dbkerensa, I do appreciate the guidelines of #Ubuntu but to have people so heavy handed yet at the same time completely hypocrital makes following said guidelines a bit tough06:48
bkerensainit[dot]d: could you explain more?06:49
init[dot]dNumerous times today and the past few days comments have been made by other users in #Ubuntu about the attitude of bazhang06:49
bazhang?06:50
bkerensainit[dot]d: Your not being clear enough for us to help you? What comments have they made about bazhang?06:50
bazhangodd I never saw those, as my name is set to highlight06:50
init[dot]dlet me see if I have an example in my logs06:51
bazhanginit[dot]d, what does this have to with you being warned to stay on topic, then continuing on after being warned to stop?06:51
init[dot]dbut I doubt it will make a diff anyway06:51
init[dot]dlol06:51
bazhangmi3 was asked to stop. and did.06:51
init[dot]dbazhang, it has everything to do with you being a hypocritical douchebag06:51
init[dot]dnuff said06:51
bazhanginit[dot]d, you were warned more than once, then continued nonetheless06:52
bazhanginit[dot]d, name calling is not called for.  it's very simple: #ubuntu is a shared resource, and if everyone is typing asdfasdf LOLLL then it becomes unusable. some moderation is required06:53
bkerensainit[dot]d: Do you have a valid issue you need help with because it appears your complaint surrounds a operator enforcing our guidelines in a consistent manner with how they should be?06:53
init[dot]dnah my logs dont go back that far06:53
init[dot]dbut it happened06:53
bazhang!1984 | init[dot]d06:53
init[dot]dguess not06:53
ubottuinit[dot]d: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too; for older LoCo channel logs, see http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/06:53
bazhangcheck there06:53
init[dot]dI appreciate the "community"06:53
bkerensa>.<06:54
bazhangso enforcing guidelines is bad06:54
bazhangok then06:54
bkerensaapparently06:54
bazhangand now he wants to continue with name calling in PM. lovely06:54
bazhang<init[dot]d> can you un q me now please?06:55
bkerensalol06:55
init[dot]dI guess you werent done scolding me06:55
bkerensainit[dot]d: We enforce the rules with equal measure... The rules exist to keep order in channels and keep them on focus with their purpose06:57
init[dot]dso in order to make a "legitimate" point I need to keep a detailed report on the op in question and present it like a lawyer otherwise it gets dismissed06:58
init[dot]dmakes sense06:58
bkerensainit[dot]d: no06:58
init[dot]dbut hear say is not admissable06:58
init[dot]d:(06:58
bkerensainit[dot]d: you have not even explained what your complaint is?06:58
init[dot]dI did06:58
bkerensainit[dot]d: you said bazhang was heavy handed in enforcing the guidelines06:59
bkerensa?06:59
init[dot]dbut you wanted proof and then dismissed it because my issue was with one of your buds06:59
init[dot]dI can understand I been there before06:59
init[dot]dbkerensa, very06:59
init[dot]dand at the same time hypocritical06:59
bkerensainit[dot]d: Did bazhang warn you?06:59
init[dot]dmost likely07:00
bkerensainit[dot]d: did you continue to conduct he asked you to cease?07:00
bkerensathe*07:00
init[dot]dI apologize for being light hearted and inserting a sense of humor in the #Ubuntu channel07:00
init[dot]dhumor is uncalled for and I understand that07:00
init[dot]dit will not happen again07:00
bkerensainit[dot]d: in #ubuntu it is in fact not the most appropriate place since it is a support channel and not a social channel.07:01
init[dot]dtrue07:01
bkerensainit[dot]d: are you appealing a ban or mute?07:01
init[dot]dand even Ubuntu-offtopic we are not allowed to be humerous07:01
init[dot]dmute07:01
init[dot]dhumor should never be censored07:02
bkerensainit[dot]d: How long have you been muted?07:02
init[dot]dbut thats just my opinion07:02
init[dot]dI unno07:02
init[dot]dnot the point though07:02
init[dot]dI dont care about the muting or the reasons for it, I am pissed because the standard is only held against some and not others07:03
init[dot]dcomprende?07:03
bazhangnot really07:04
bkerensainit[dot]d: By being uncooperative your not giving me the impression that your able to adhere to the guidelines? Adding that you came in here and insulted a operator only strengthens that position. I suggest you take a break and try back in a few days and we can look at the situation again.07:04
init[dot]dyour man/woman/thingamabober bazhang has been a douche at times and that is A ok, but let someone else say something he/she/it doesnt like and BAM ban hammer07:04
bazhangyou worry about you, it's simple07:04
init[dot]dlikewise07:04
init[dot]dI try to adhere to the guidelines but at times I slip07:05
init[dot]dsorry im a joker and it comes out naturally its not like I just want to piss ppl off it just happens but instead of a little thing called forebearance banhammer or bazhang  just lays down the law07:05
bkerensainit[dot]d: I don't think we can help you at this time your behavior towards bazhang is unacceptable07:05
init[dot]dalright07:06
init[dot]dappreciate the sense of community07:06
init[dot]dcommunism more like it lol07:06
bkerensa=/07:06
init[dot]dwait so now im banned from #Ubuntu?07:07
bazhangyep07:07
init[dot]dand why?07:07
bazhanginit[dot]d, we just went over why you were +q07:08
bkerensainit[dot]d: You have repeatedly demonstrated that your not able to follow Ubuntu IRC Guidelines07:08
init[dot]dbkerensa, by one slip?07:09
init[dot]dwow07:09
bazhangI suggest you return in 48 hours to discuss the +b07:09
bkerensainit[dot]d:  ^07:09
init[dot]dwill it matter then?07:09
init[dot]dor is it just to prove the powers?07:09
bkerensainit[dot]d: If you show us that you can change and start following the guidelines and be respectful (Code of Conduct) then it may play a role in the decision making process.07:10
bkerensainit[dot]d: But as bazhang has stated we would ask you come back no earlier than 48 hours.07:10
init[dot]dI did follow the guidelines I admit I slipped a few times but I did cut it out when reminded. My issue was with bazhang acting like an ass to people and that was fine with you07:11
init[dot]dI just want to understand why I MUST adhere to the coc and bazhang  can follow whatever07:11
init[dot]dI admit I was disrespectful so I was wrong there07:12
init[dot]dI am a bit hot headed07:12
bazhangso come back in 48 hrs07:12
bazhangsimple.07:12
init[dot]dbut that does not excuse hypocrisy07:12
bkerensainit[dot]d: you have no told been able to demonstrate any occasion where bazhang may have crossed the lines but yet you have insulted him in this channel twice07:12
bkerensainit[dot]d: please part the channel and come back in 48 hours07:12
init[dot]dbkerensa, I apologize my logs dont go back that far07:12
bazhanginit[dot]d, is 48 hrs too soon. perhaps longer is necessary to cool off and think clearly for you07:12
init[dot]dI offered to keep a detailed report07:13
bazhang!1984 | init[dot]d07:13
ubottuinit[dot]d: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too; for older LoCo channel logs, see http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/07:13
init[dot]dok07:13
bazhangthose are the logs. have at them.07:13
init[dot]dand in 48 then I can say my piece?07:13
init[dot]dor get kicked and banned then as well07:13
bkerensainit[dot]d: correct we will be willing to discuss this further in 48 hours but not any further at this time07:14
bazhangsay your piece about what? more name calling?07:14
init[dot]dbkerensa, ok I appreciate that07:14

elkyi'm going for "yes" right now, but we can't really do anything until something happens07:25

aetoxxCan you explain how I cannot say that some Ubuntu packager clearly messed up the packaging of an important non-trivial application?08:24
ikoniaaetoxx: sure08:24
aetoxxYou should be happy that I even say things are not working.08:25
ikoniaaetoxx: as I said to you, if you need / want help, you need to start giving details and information, and not saying odd cyptic things like "no-one uses ubuntu" and ranting that the packager didn't do his job, people will help you resolve the problem, or log a bug against the package if there is a problem08:25
aetoxxIt costs me time and in response you ban me.08:25
ikoniaaetoxx: if you feel you can interact with the support resouce in the manner I've just descrived you are welcome to rejoin08:25
aetoxxikonia, I suggest you take some reading classes, because I already said there was a bug filed for it in 2011.08:25
ikoniadescribed even08:25
ikoniaaetoxx: that's great, so you know there is a problem, so either add to the report, or accept there is a known bug (whatever is detailed in that bug report)08:26
aetoxxikonia, I was discussing the very position of the packager for that package.08:26
ikoniamaking silly comments and ranting won't help08:26
aetoxxikonia, I think a project shouldn't just let anyone be able to commit anything.08:26
ikoniawell, that's great, but that's not how it works08:27
aetoxxikonia, what does Ubuntu do to protect its users from such idiocy?08:27
ikoniaremove them from the channel, as I've just done08:27
ikoniaaetoxx: howevever, if you can use the support resource (as I've just described) you're welcome to rejoin it08:27
aetoxxikonia, I am sorry, but I have PhD. in CS.08:27
aetoxxikonia, so, it's not I who is the idiot.08:28
ikoniathen please use the channel in the manner I have explained08:28
aetoxxikonia, unless I closed my eyes for a second and in the mean while everyone got a 150+ IQ.08:28
ikoniaI'm not really interested in this discussion, so I'm going to make it clear/simple08:29
ikoniaaetoxx: do you wish to use the #ubuntu support channel, yes/no ?08:29
aetoxxikonia, you are saying I am the idiot.08:29
aetoxxikonia, I think you should apologize.08:29
ikoniaaetoxx: do you wish to use the #ubuntu support channel, yes/no ?08:29
aetoxxikonia, yes08:29
ikoniaaetoxx: can you use the channel in the manner I have described08:29
aetoxxikonia, and you should apologize.08:29
ikoniaaetoxx: can you use the channel in the manner I have described yes/no08:29
aetoxxikonia, where is it not off-topic to discuss suitability of people in this project?08:30
ikoniaaetoxx: can you use the channel in the manner I have described yes/no08:30
ikoniaaetoxx: please answer the question08:30
aetoxxikonia, should I put up a website showing a list of idiots within the project?08:30
AlanBellaetoxx: ikonia is trying to help you here, just answer the question08:31
ikoniabye08:31
aetoxxThat was a not so serious suggestion.08:31
ikoniaaetoxx: if you wish this to continue, please answer the question08:32
aetoxxYes08:32
ikoniaaetoxx: can you use the channel in the manner I have described yes/no08:32
ikoniaaetoxx: great, so now please /part this channel, and /join #ubuntu and use it in the manner I have described please.08:32
aetoxxI would like to know where it is discussed who can remain a packager and who cannot.08:32
ikoniait's not08:33
ikoniathere is no such place08:33
aetoxxDo you think that's a good thing?08:33
ikoniaI'm not interested in this discussion08:33
aetoxxIn a company that would never happen.08:33
ikoniaif you wish to use #ubuntu, please /join #ubuntu and /part this channel08:33
ikoniaother wise, pleaes just /part this channel08:33
aetoxxWhat kind of nonsense is this? I cannot discuss it here and I cannot discuss it in #ubuntu.08:34
ikoniacorrect08:34
aetoxxAnd the same holds for the ubuntu forums?08:35
ikoniayes08:35
aetoxxI thought Ubuntu was for human beings.08:35
aetoxxIt seems to be more for the Borg collective.08:35
ikoniaok, we are done now.08:36
ikoniaplease /part the channel, and you're free to use #ubuntu in the manner I've explained08:36
aetoxxYou seriously don't see anything wrong with that?08:36
ikoniadiscussion over.08:36
aetoxxI would like to know the rationale for such rules.08:36
aetoxxThey seem rather restrictive.08:36
ikoniayes, if you want to rant, they are restrictive08:36
aetoxxI.e. who specifically wrote down those rules?08:36
ikoniathe IRC Community Council08:37
aetoxxI can know who created some law in the real world too.08:37
ikoniaI'm sure with your massive IQ you can understand that an IRC channel has no relevence to real world law08:37
ikoniaso I suggest you park any further conversation and /part now08:37
AlanBellaetoxx: this channel is for resolving issues relating to users removed from #ubuntu, which has been done. Go read about MOTU on the Ubuntu wiki and all the processes there around becoming a packager08:38
AlanBelland for proprietary software go speak to the people who make it08:38
aetoxxAlanBell, in this case it is the packager which takes a perfectly well working piece of software and turns it into feces.08:38
aetoxxAlanBell, I am not suggesting that Ubuntu should even package it.08:39
aetoxxAlanBell, but when they do, they can expect that it just shows a very bad image.08:39
ikoniaaetoxx: I think we are now done in this channel.08:46
aetoxxWho appointed the IRC Communicty Council?08:46
ikoniathe Ubuntu Community Council08:46
aetoxxAnd in the end there is some master from Canonical?08:47
ikonianot really, members of canonical sit on the various boards as community members also08:47
aetoxxikonia, so, you are saying you are just following rules and you didn't make them?08:48
ikoniato keep it simple "yes"08:48
aetoxxI have the impression that the rules are there to just reduce work.08:49
ikoniayour impression is wrong, I'm sorry you feel that way08:49
ikoniaanything else you need from the Ubuntu operator team ?08:49
ikoniaor are you now comfortable with how to use #ubuntu  ?08:49
aetoxxNo, but I don't agree with your values. It basically means that I should use other places to express some opinions about Ubuntu.08:50
ikoniaok, your disagreement with the values has been noted, thank you08:50
aetoxxThe 'no' was in regard to the 'whether I need anything'.08:50
ikoniaplease /part this channel and go about your IRC day. take care.08:50
aetoxxBye08:51

Jordan_USo, if there is a history of things like this (meaning they haven't learned from past experience and we're not sure they'll learn from this one) we should follow up with theadmin. I'm not going to check or follow up as I'm busy getting jeremiah's data back right now.19:34
ikoniaJordan_U: normally she's solid19:34
ikoniamaybe just having a bad/lazy day19:35
ikoniaI know I sometimes sigh when you see people messing around and wrecking their partition tables19:35
Jordan_Uikonia: OK.19:37
bazhanghe just shrugs it off, and says "I use arch, why should I care/learn"19:37
ikoniareally ?19:38
ikoniaI've never had her give that sort of response to me19:39
bazhanghas done so on multiple occasions, yes19:39
ikoniaI'm surprised and dissapointed, I thought she may have been a good op when she applied with a little help19:40
ikoniashe's always been good with me, would you like me to have a small chat with her ?19:40
MyrttiI wasn't too happy when he gave instructions on how to evade bans19:43
ikoniawhat ???19:43
MyrttiI talked her about that19:43
ikoniatheadmin ?19:43
Myrttiyup19:43
ikoniaI'm really surprised19:43
Myrttithe explanation was along the lines of "oops, I didn't think"19:44
ikoniaI'll talk to her, as if she is still keen on becoming an op, she should be made aware of a few of the things she needs to change19:44
bazhanghfsplus sighted19:51
Jordan_UHmm, testdisk found their partitions but is planning to make them all primary, where as two of them were logical before.19:51
Jordan_UI guess it should still work.19:51
Unit193Jordan_U: I must say, testdisk is simply amazing.19:53
Jordan_UUnit193: Indeed :)19:53
Jordan_UMission accomplished.20:02
Anxi80I would like to report that I have been wrongfully quieted in #ubuntu22:51
IdleOneAnxi80: Why do you believe it was wrongful?22:53
Anxi80Because I was stating fact with source regarding a bug with installing dropbox through Ubuntu Software Center and the op didn't like it22:53
Anxi80said it was my point of view yet i linked launchpad bug22:54
IdleOneok, well the fact is not in dispute. you are correct the is a bug concerning dropbox.22:54
IdleOneThe problem is that #ubuntu is not the place to continuously report bugs. That is why launchpad exists.22:55
Anxi80the op kept stating that I was saying that the bug is with ubuntu when i was not and I requoted myself22:55
Anxi80You are right but I wasn't reporting. I was giving a friendly "PSA"22:56
Anxi80I wasn't looking for resolution as I solved it on my own22:56
IdleOneYou were asked by a channel op to stop spamming, essentially after the first time you are asked to stop it becomes spam, and you didn't stop. You went so far as to make sure that you highlighted the op to make sure they saw you go against the channel rules22:56
Anxi80no spam warnings were given22:56
IdleOneSo, I don;t see the quiet as wrongful and it will not be removed at this time.22:57
Anxi80just disagreement22:57
IdleOnebeing asked to stop is a warning22:57
Anxi80I was told to stop stating my point of view and I kept explaining that it wasnt a point of view and that they should look at the link i provided22:58
Anxi80I have nothing further to add your honor22:58
IdleOnealright.22:58
IdleOnePlease part the channel and have a great day :)22:58
Anxi80I just have a question, is the quiet indefinite or does it run out on its own?22:59
IdleOneit may be indefinite, most things don't last forever.22:59
Anxi80so am I supposed to return here in the near future to appeal again?23:00
IdleOneI think the best thing is you take a few days out of #ubuntu and maybe come back at a later date after you have had time to think about how your actions affected #ubuntu. you may also want to have a read of the !guidelines. see /msg ubottu !guidelines23:00
IdleOneAnxi80: was there anything else I could help you with?23:03
MyrttiAnxi80: here's something to think about: there are hundreds of bugs filed into Ubuntu every day. There are thousands of people in #ubuntu every day. Those people don't necessarily use Dropbox - it might be a small fraction. If all the bugs in Ubuntu were to get a PSA, #ubuntu - a channel for strictly support issues, not bug filing or PSA's, would boggle down to useless.23:03
Anxi80IdleOne, thank you23:04
Anxi80Myrtti, You are absolutely correct but I don't see what the harm is. I got a very harsh reaction I am quite certain but I have no problem in refraining from such PSA's in the future23:05
IdleOneMyrtti: that was an excellent point.23:05
MyrttiAnxi80: that was exactly the point23:07
IdleOneAnxi80: the harm is that the channel would devolve into chaos. it is hard enough to maintain it at a level that is usable. We can't have PSA's going on all day23:07
Anxi80Myrtti, I knew that before I even wrote the PSA. My goal is not to PSA every bug I see ofcourse. I am a developer myself. It's just that I got agressively put down about it being my point of view23:08
IdleOneLike I said earlier, take a few days and come back, we can talk about it then and see if we can remove the mute.23:09
Anxi80no problem23:09
IdleOneThank you.23:09
mneptokAnxi80: there is a reason that ubottu does not automatically announce new Launchpad bugs. having meatspace do it is no better. you have excellent intentions, but the wholly wrong platform.23:09
Anxi80IdleOne, Myrtti, Thanks and have an excellent day23:09
MyrttiAnxi80: thanks, you too23:09

elkyIt's a relatively small range of numbers really, it's not hard to learn the corresponding value by rote23:15
genii-aroundPoutine is never a bad word!!!!23:16
bkerensaMmm now I want Portland Poutine23:17

marienzI'm not quite sure what the trigger invocation was for23:49
marienzit looks like someone showing off their window manager/gtk theme23:50
bkerensamarienz: it was not clear thats what that was at first ;)23:51
bazhangwhoa chanserv is freaking out23:54
elkymarienz, if we banned *dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy would we get many other than "Like" in #ubuntu or -offtopic?23:55
bazhanggiving double channel operator status to b kerensa23:55
elkyseems to me only 3 users from that isp online at the moment, i'm no doubt missing some though23:56
bkerensabazhang: yeah and it lagged pretty heavy23:57
marienzelky: you're missing several23:57
bkerensabazhang: I fired off the kb pretty hyper-vigilantly due to the ops trigger and seeing "porn"23:58
bazhangbkerensa, I'd have done the same, honestly, I was commenting on chanserv giving double o p s23:59
