KilosWe’ve noticed that our bots very quickly become integral to channel communities09:22
Kilosso true09:22
superflyhello everyone09:28
Kiloshehe hello superfly 09:28
Kilossuch a gentleman our fly09:29
inetprocharl: danke schon is not the correct way to use it, it's dankeschön09:33
charlinetpro: actually you're completely right http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dankesch%C3%B6n09:37
Kiloscharl, the pro is our resident german09:38
Kiloshes not often wrong and when he is he is still right09:38

charlthere is a subtle difference :)09:40
charllol Kilos 09:40
charlnice i didn't know inetpro was german, which part of germany are you from (if you don't mind me asking)?09:40
Kilosthe part in northern natal09:41
Kilosum09:41
Kiloswhew i go bang head against the wall09:41
charlif my understanding is correct, and i am to be corrected, danke schon in dutch translates to "dank je wel" while dankeschon (one word) would translate to "bedankt"09:42
inetpro:-)09:42
charlbut my german is not good so i could be wrong09:42
Kilospaul piet?09:42
Kerberoo09:42
Kerberoas jy dit so stel verstaan ek dit ook @ ChanServ 09:43
Kerbero*charl09:43
Kerberolol09:43
Kilosyo Kerbero 09:43
* inetpro is a german speaking South African 09:43
inetprocharl: and I guess I speak more like Afrideutsch then the real thing, so please don't blame me if I am wrong09:44
inetpros/then/than/09:44
charlinetpro: no i know the story, ask any dutch person that lived in south africa09:46
charlit really screws with you09:46
charlthe other day i said "schielijk" instead of "plotseling" and my colleague here laughed at me09:46
charl"you speak 17-century dutch you noob"09:46
charlit is valid dutch though09:47
Kerberohahaha09:48
Kerberodat vind ik leuk09:48
inetprocharl: haha, my ancestors have also had a lot of time to meddle with the local german lingo09:51
* inetpro is a sixth generation german speaking RSA citizen09:51
charlsheesh ok after six generations you can be forgiven :)09:52
Kiloslol09:52
inetproand I must be honest that I feel bad about struggling to write the language properly09:52
* inetpro should go back to school and learn it again09:53
charlnot at all, let me tell you something09:53
charli grew up in south africa but i was raised by my mother and grandmother09:53
charli learned dutch from them speaking it in the house, but they speak 60'09:54
charl60's dutch09:54
charlso the other day i said "een persoon heeft mij opgeschakeld" meaning "a person called me up"09:54
charlmy colleague here said "you noob, you say bel, not schakel"09:54
charlonly in a couple of years, the language has already changed09:54
inetproyikes09:55
charlfunny enough, south africans also use "bel", not "schakel"09:55
charlyet i talk about "schakel" instead out of habit09:55
inetprosounds like they want to become more like Afrikaans09:55
charli don't think the two languages really have much cross-polination, probably due to the physical separation of the two countries09:56
charlit's very interesting to me though to see the same slang developing in different places09:57
charlfor example, in south africa i think you can say "ek check 'n meisie uit"09:57
charlthat's from the english expression of checking a girl out obviously09:57
Kiloshehe09:58
charlin germany, the young people could say "checken das aus" or in dutch "check dat even uit"09:58
charlsame slang, different continents09:58
charlobviously that comes from english, that is not original german/dutch/afrikaans09:58
inetproheh, I'll check her out09:58
inetprostill looks funny when you write it09:59
charlthe dutch and the germans have a habit of saying "alstublieft" or "bitteschon" if they for example give you coffee09:59
charlin south africa i have never heard a person say "alseblief" or however it goes when they hand you something10:00
charla bit more like the english do it10:00
inetprohmm...10:01
inetproasseblief 10:01
charlah yes, sorry10:01
inetprobut asseblief and bitteschön is not the same thing10:01
charlthat seems to be like it yes10:01
inetproasseblief = bitte10:01
charlyeah ok but schon is hard to translate, like saying "sehr schon"10:02
charlin dutch you would say "zeer leuk" or so10:02
inetprobitteschön is like saying, you're welcome10:03
charlyeah exactly10:03
charlalsjeblieft is similar10:03
inetproanyway, sounds like we're in a lingo channel now :-)10:04
charlif you say you want something person 1 "wil je koffie hebben?", person 2 "ja graag!", person 1 "alsjeblieft", person 2 "dank je wel"10:04
charla different "handshake" so to speak10:04
charlyeah sorry we're going seriously off topic10:04
inetproeven Kilos has become quiet10:04
charl:D10:05
inetproand he doesn't even have work to do 10:05
Kilosi think when there is no one needing help then chats are fine because it helps us all get to know each other better10:05
Kilosinetpro, lies10:05
inetprolol10:05
inetprosorry Kilos10:05
* Kilos chief cook , bottle washer and maplotter10:06

Kiloshehe new toy10:29
Squirmnew toy?10:30
Kiloscharl your nicks arent registered10:32
Kilosbad boy10:32
charlhi sorry back10:34
charlwas afk for a while10:34
charlKilos: yup that is the way i prefer to keep it10:34
charlmaybe i'm old-school efnet user but i don't believe in someone "owning" a nick10:34
charlbbl10:36
Kilosya but on here you will come on and find someone else has taken the nick and you cant use it anymore10:36
Squirmand it means you could be impersonated. people back in the day didn't do such a thing10:37
Squirmmaybe they did, I wasn't here back in the day10:37
Kiloslol10:37
Kilosmore bad peeps now than back in the day10:41
charlKilos: that's true but if they take my nick i just use a different one10:55
charlSquirm: online anyone can impersonate anyone in any case10:55
charlcurrently i am impersonating myself10:55
charlat the end of the day, all you're talking to is a nick, nothing more, nothing less10:56
Kilosno man my nick is my nick10:56
Kilostry impersonate me\10:56
=== charl is now known as Kilos_
Kilos_hmmm, for some reason i don't know if this is going to work10:59
Kilos_impersonating you would be a hard one10:59
Kilos_if you were less active here i could perhaps have gotten away with it11:00
Kiloswe all know me here and thats why you register your nick and its tails11:00
Kiloslol11:00
Kilos_people know you too well for anyone to be able to impersonate you anyway11:00
Kilos_irrespective of your nick11:00
Kilos_but if someone comes in here with this nick with the extra underscore at the end and acts exactly like you, i don't think there will be much doubt11:01
Kilos_they could use the old "my account got hacked" or "i lost my password" ploy11:01
Kilosya maybe but will have to be while im alseep11:01
Kilos_true and then people would be "why are you awake"11:02
Kilos_at this funny hour11:02
Kilosi dunno if there is a lost password recovery sevice with irc without going to them and asking online11:02
Kilosha ha ha11:02
Kilos_however, say someone would have hacked your account and came in here using "Kilos"11:03
Kilos_if the person acts strange we would know it's not you in any case11:03

magespawnhah17:46
magespawnbrb going to try a new program18:01
Kilosok18:01
superflycvn boasts he wrote the book on trolling, but he hasn't truly trolled18:02
Kiloshaha have you also trolled superfly ?18:02
Kilosi thought trolls were monsters18:03
superflyKilos: not specifically, I take no delight in taking people for a ride when they don't know it. I have much better ways of doing things.18:03
cvnsuperfly: ah, you just fell for my troll! i trolled that i'm trolling while i wasn't actually trolling but then i was indeed trolling and it was successful18:05
superflycvn: say no more, we all know you're confused.18:05
inetproKilos: Gugulethu or Guguletu is a township 15 km from Cape Town, South Africa.18:05
Kilosty inetpro 18:05
Kiloswe need to discuss things guys18:06
Kilosfirst maybe we need to start an agenda going for mondays meeting18:07
Kilossecondly we need to decide what is not appropriate to discuss here18:07
Kilosmaybe another agenda item/ i dunno18:07
Kilosinetpro, superfly ^^18:08
Kilosyou the ballies here18:08
* inetpro don't make the rules18:08
Kiloswho does?18:08
inetprokilos make the rules18:09
Kilosif only ubuntu related topics are discussed it will be a cold heartless channel methinks18:09
Kilosinpho18:09
Kiloslol18:09
Kiloswhew cant even get that right18:09
Kilosin my personal honest opinion18:10
cvnquite honestly, there isn't that much relevant discussion that goes on here, meaning it would become a somewhat dead channel if that becomes the rule18:10
inetprothat?18:11
cvnthe dutch channel has a separate channel for offtopic discussions but that's because there are a reasonable amount of on-topic discussions happening in the main channel18:11
Kilosi understand its a bind to scroll back to look for where your nick was used18:11
Kilosi think if all agree that we accept this as a chat channel for linux/ubuntu users but when ubuntu related topic comes up then chtting stops18:12
Kiloshow do you guys feel18:12
Kilosmaybe we must mail highvoltage and hear what he wants hey?18:13
Kilosdont all speak at once18:14
cvnyeah that's the same rule as in the dutch channel18:14
cvni think it's a good one18:14
Kilosmethinks we need to get a vote on this from the old hands18:15
Kilosi dont want anyone here to not be happy18:15
Kilosimo this must be a family channel. community/family not uncles aunts etc18:17
cvnyeah good idea18:23
cvnwb AlphaGuyy 18:23

Alpha_GuyyDefinately not I'd be on youtube discovrn everythn new about ubuntu18:47

Kilosand expect a couple of hundred megs at least for the first update upgrade18:56
Alpha_GuyyI'm lookn to do script with 1218:58
Alpha_Guyyso I can maybe download from library18:58

magespawnAlpha_Guyy: maybe join the mailing list then you will get news about Ubuntu Hours etc and come to the monthly meetings here for more info18:59
Kilosmagespawn, what does that doing script mean19:01
magespawnnot sure what he means, but scripts are short programs/file that automate certain process or actions19:02
magespawnat least thats what i understand as scripts19:03
Kilosi dunno anyway he can save data by doing any script writing19:06
Kilosunless he can rewrite the whole ubuntu 19:06
Kilosdo za libraries allow an hour or 2 free internet connection19:08
Kilosthat another choice19:08
Kilosyou know those places where they keep books19:09

cvnoh you mean the reboot itself?19:40
cvnyeah last is good19:41
inetprocvn: yes sir19:41
Kilosif his bot is off it didnt reboot19:41
inetpro09/07 21:20:44 <magespawn> so maybe the electricity went last night sometime.19:42
inetproKilos: ^^19:42
Kilosyeah but will last give shutdown time or reboot time19:42
Kilosi see this19:43
Kilosreboot   system boot  2.6.35-32-generi Mon Jul  2 07:49 - 15:21  (07:32)19:43
Kilosbut many of them19:43
inetproKilos: it will give reboot time which will help you to track things easier19:43
Kiloshmm19:43
Kilosinetpro, did you look at thoughts on channel use19:44
Kilosive been waiting for you old clever users to come shoot me down in flames19:44
Kilosor make some comment19:44
inetprohmm... 19:44
cvnchecked the man pages and it seems like if you type "last reboot" you only get the reboots without the logins19:45
inetprocvn: true19:45
Kilosfrom 20.09 to 20.1619:45
Kilosive stayed 45 mins past normal bedtime waiting for some feedback19:47
inetproKilos: eish!19:47
Kiloswill sent my headache to you guys19:47
* inetpro is busy with other stuffs, sorry19:48
Kiloshehe19:48
Kilosthats an excuse19:48
Kilosthats a 20 sec read 19:48
inetproI was just trying to catch up quickly with you guys while I have to continue with more stuffs19:48
Kilosya ya19:49
inetproKilos: ja ja19:49
Kiloshehe19:49
SquirmKilos: how did the wine thing go?19:49
KilosSquirm, actually got the game going but oh so slow19:49
SquirmI hear some games run better on wine than windows19:50
Squirmcorrect drivers installed?19:50
inetproKilos: nothing wrong with your suggestion but perhaps worth voting on at the next meetup19:50
Kiloswhenit played intro music and went white screen a few enters made it step past all the intro stuff19:50
inetpronot sure whether it's really necessary though19:50
Kilosi just dont want anyone to get upset inetpro 19:51
Kilosso better if its an open decision hey?19:51
inetproKilos: get upset with who?19:51
Kilosthere have been times when someone has come on and asked what has this discussion to do with ubutu19:52
Kilosubuntu19:52
cvnit's understandable that it's confusing for newlings19:56
cvnbut i'm going to remain neutral in this one19:56
SquirmRaspberry Pi has been dispatched19:56
* Squirm dances19:56
Kiloslol ya i will take the heat19:56
inetproKilos: generally the Ubuntu Code of Conduct is what we should try to adhere to19:57
inetprohttps://launchpad.net/codeofconduct/1.119:57
inetproor http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/conduct19:58
Kilos productive, happy and agile community works better among friends than just nicks inna channel isnt it20:01
Kiloswhere in both those links does it say discuss nothing but ubuntu or linux inetpro 20:04
inetproKilos: Be respectful20:05
Kilosmethinks maybe things like politics etc should be taboo yes20:05
inetproa community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one20:05
Kilosim missing something here20:06
inetproI don't think it's healthy to spell out every rule in details20:06
* Banlam has no idea what's happening20:06
KilosBanlam, scroll back to 20.09 to 20.1620:07
* Banlam has a sneak peak20:07
Kilosyip i agree inetpro no black and white rules but we are getting past the reason for this discussion20:08
Kilosa channel of friends is surely gonna be more efficient than a channel of nicks20:09
Kilossuperfly, help20:09
inetproKilos: put it on the agenda for next week20:10
Kiloshow do i find that inetpro 20:11
Kilosyou need to open a new link methinks20:11
Squirmmy personal opinion(if it counts at all), is that this is a community run channel. Yes, we chat, which is what keeps the channel alive. but then we're also here if someone needs help. If someone asks a question, we help them as best we can, if they've finished being helped, we carry on chatting.20:11
inetproor perhaps we can discuss later this week when more peeps are free20:11
Kiloswould actually be nice to get everyones opinions20:12
inetproKilos: people will respond when they have time20:12
* superfly doesn't think there's really much to discuss. We are bound by the Code of Conduct20:12
Kilossuperfly, does the code say no chatting here?20:13
inetproand I tend to agree with that also... the CoC covers a huge lot of ground20:13
Kilosas in the odd personal news is what builds this community20:15
Kilosthe joking tween us is what keeps us coming back, not so20:15
Kilosunity is the keyword20:16
superflyKilos: it doesn't necessarily define *what* we should be chating about, but it defines *how* we should be chatting20:16
inetproKilos: no need to cast that in stone20:16
Squirmbesides, I'm here and I haven't run Ubuntu in like 9 months :P20:17
inetproSquirm: shame20:17
Kiloshehe20:17
Kilosbut is the community spirit that brings him back20:18
Kilossuperfly, "how" as in? sorry if im being slow as usual20:19

SquirmI have nothing against Ubuntu, just don't like the way Gnome 3 and Unity have gone. and yes, I know I could install my own window managers and what not(did that for debian I'm running now). I might actually do it to Ubuntu if I end up formatting20:24
inetproKilos: shall we boot him outta here?20:24
