IdleOneDid you get it sorted out?02:18
bazhangnot yet02:19
bazhangit has a higher number, must be better02:26
Jordan_UIt is in fact a pretty great release, but most users shouldn't care.02:26
bazhangseriously doubt he needs it or knows why it's better02:27
Jordan_UThat's pretty clear.02:27
bazhangkernel 3.5.something has tonnes of fixes, too02:28
bazhangat any rate grub2 is being shelved for future versions of Ubuntu, if sources are to be believed02:30
Unit193I thought it was only for hardware that needs EFI support.02:33
Jordan_Ubazhang: Unit193: Only for hardware with UEFI secure boot enabled. And IMHO (IANAL) they are misunderstanding the requirements of the GPLv3.02:36
Unit193http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTEyODc Just read that, funny timing. :P02:51

Pici!notunity =~ s/10 uses/10 and higher use/13:40
ubottuI'll remember that Pici13:40
LjLis yandex381 generally a problem? i think i've seen him say irrelevant things a bunch of times14:24
oCeanIf he says anything, which is every now and then, it is offtopic mostly offtopic14:27
oCeanlittle redundancy there14:27
LjLis the department of redundancy department14:28
ubottuIn #ubuntu, sreejith said: ubottu: Ok,  I need to share a file that is in windows14:28
h00kIt'd be kinda funny to send jono to ##fix-your-connection15:13
MyrttiI can do it for offtopic if you do it for u ;-)15:18
Myrttinot yet tho15:18
h00kMyrtti: let me know if you decide to, it's not so bad yet.15:21
bazhangwhy is tables repeatedly asking the same thing15:56
mneptokusually if tables return duplicate output, blame the SELECT statement.16:05
bazhanghehe16:06
bazhangaugh did sidewinder just do a !list for an italian user?16:51
oCeanyes16:51
oCeanno16:51
oCeanwell16:51
bazhangah it was an .nl user16:51
oCeansomeone says ciao, ... indeed16:52
bazhangstill, incredibly silly16:52
oCeanHe used to say "... here comes the !list, wait for it...."16:52
SidewinderAt your service. :)17:13
IdleOneThanks for joining. I just wanted to bring something up real quick17:13
IdleOneSidewinder: I noticed you did a !list to a user who said hello in Italian. I want to ask you not to do that again, stereotyping like that is just wrong and very rude.17:13
IdleOneThat was all :)17:14
Sidewinderocean brought that to my attention; here is/was my response to him:oCean, My humblest apologies if I 'jumped the gun'; it's just that I can't remember a greeting of ciao or ciao a tutti that wasn't immediately followed by the 'list' command. Your disapproval is noted and you may rest assured that that sort of response will not be repeated; at least from me. :)17:15
Sidewinder<oCean> Sidewinder: thanks17:15
IdleOneI was not aware oCean had already brought it up.17:15
IdleOneSorry for the doubling up of work :)17:16
IdleOneWe appreciate your understanding.17:16
SidewinderAgain, humblest apologies; I am aware that many of you have tried to 'decipher' the mistaken assumption that the ubuntu channels can/may be used as warez. I guess it'll just remain a "mystery of our times". Sorry for sausing you 'double duty', and thanks to you and all of the other ops for your most valued services. I think you all should get a raise! ;-)17:19
IdleOnehah. lets start by getting paid frst17:19
IdleOnefirst*17:20
SidewinderThat's a good start. :) Have a good one..17:20
ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from kav)18:31
LjLthe "PPAs unsupported" thing is open to so many bad interpretations18:53
LjLnow when someone has ppa-purged stuff, and things are not proper, they get told "well PPAs are unsupported". i don't think that means you are precluded from getting help trying to restore your system to a working state.18:54

ubottupragmaticenigma called the ops in #ubuntu (NoOova)23:34
pragmaticenigmaIdleOne are you in here23:37
IdleOneI am23:37
IdleOnepragmaticenigma: you can PM me the message if you prefer23:38
pragmaticenigmaThe issue was that NoOova asked at large if anyone used a flashblocking program. When I replied, he wanted to me to go to a link23:39
pragmaticenigmathat link was setup as a snare with malware to see if his coding could circumvent my flashblocking programing23:39
IdleOneI see. if we get any further complaints we will take action. I'm sure you understand we can't just go on the word of one person but we do appreciate you looking out for the channel.23:41
pragmaticenigmaI would ask that you at the very least see if he asks again, or yourself respond to his inquiry... I'm not about to risk my system security and have not replied further to him23:42
IdleOneI will keep him on watch.23:42
pragmaticenigmamuch appreciated!23:43
IdleOnesure thing.23:43
IdleOnepragmaticenigma: Could you please PM me what was sent to you23:47
pragmaticenigma<NoOova> hello. i debug some service... could you open page without enabled flash, or with flashblock? and say wrom what country you are23:48
pragmaticenigmaI didn't get the link, but if you want, I can see if he still responds23:48
genii-aroundpragmaticenigma: I've sent them a message not to use #ubuntu for this kind of testing, we will see if they respod23:49
genii-around*respond23:49
pragmaticenigmaI think he's gone... but I really do appreciate the help23:49
IdleOneThat is what we are here for :)23:49
pragmaticenigmagenii-around, IdleOne, he did respond and this is the URL ru.twitch.tv/bankr23:55
genii-aroundpragmaticenigma: No, they did not reply. If we get similar reports from other users some action may be taken.23:55
pragmaticenigmagenii-around: I think you might have misread... He sent me the link...23:56
genii-aroundpragmaticenigma: Yes, he wanted you to test his coding to bypass your flash blocking, and sent you the link in pm23:57
genii-around( is my understanding so far )23:57
pragmaticenigmayes.. and I have posted up the link here... because I believe you asked if I had it23:57
pragmaticenigmagenii-around: you are correct23:58
genii-aroundIt is good for us to know what it is, in case others report the same link being sent to them privately. So far it seems to be an isolated incident.23:58
pragmaticenigmaI suppose I'm quick to think things like that... I work within the banking industry, so I'm more vigilant against such attacks...23:59
