[07:04] and he quits before he can read it [07:05] was tempted to suggest casey ask in another distro's channel but decided it would be unfair to the other channel [07:19] Hi, this is the Audi mechanic? Ok good, I'm having a problem with my Ford... er Audi. Please help me! [07:20] hahahaha [07:20] elky: I'm planning to go to sleep soon. Do you mind watching Casey for a while longer and kick them if they try to get Mint support again? [07:20] that's *exactly* what he did [07:22] Here's the problem. I burned Linux Mint 13...I mean Ubuntu 12.04 to a live dvd [07:27] bazhang, i know! [07:27] we should have a "best of..release day comments" [07:28] well close enough [07:40] ny first thought was : yeah, don't use ftp [07:49] augh wfm [08:20] bazhang: I was about to say that he was welcome to write his own bootloader and see how hard it is. ;) [08:21] jpds, haha nicely done [08:21] it shows a folder called lost and found <---- ruhroh [08:32] You all are humorless, emotionally retarded robots. [08:32] beep [08:32] should always read messages from ubottu before you come back to the channel and insult us [08:38] IdleOne: you are a deadbeat... hey, what message from ubottu? :P :P [08:40] a deadbeat? :( [08:40] that is harsh [08:40] T MINUS ONE [08:40] day [08:41] !isitout [08:41] Nope, it's not out. - http://bit.ly/Wdxvys [08:41] !no isitout is Nope, it's not out. - http://bit.ly/Wdxvys !party in #ubuntu-release-party [08:41] I'll remember that IdleOne [08:43] I have a feeling Tobias deleted is files [08:43] his* [08:45] IdleOne: hehe, I am nasty today :P [08:45] * jussi hugs IdleOne [08:46] I have a bad tooth ache :( [08:46] tomorrow will be my third day in a row at the dentist [08:47] IdleOne: not worse than the current stat of my teeth - appointment with special dentist in a week or 2, half one tooth missing, second needs a root canal. [08:48] heh, I have the exact same problem. half a tooth broke off, needs to be removed. [08:49] one of my molars [08:50] yeah, the half tooth for me is that not molar, not incisor - the one behind the fang! :P [08:52] oh, that makes your smile not as sparkly [08:54] sparkly? since when? hahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahah [08:54] :P [08:56] well, you mentioned fangs and i thought of vampires and ALL vampires are sparkly [08:57] * AlanBell has a vampire cloak for halloween [08:58] a black sheet? [08:58] bit better than that [08:58] neon-pink sheet then [08:58] lol [09:02] I need to try and get some sleep [09:04] IdleOne: want me to sing you a lullaby? [09:05] AlanBell: why is it I can picture you as a vampire... [09:06] jussi: because he is? [09:06] Tm_T: ahh... [09:07] he's our pink, sparkly vampire [09:07] Tm_T: now you are making me scared... sounds incredibly camp... :P [09:08] yay, I succeeded! \o/ [09:22] * AlanBell will have to make some adjustments to the costume to accomodate these suggestions [09:55] AlanBell: haha [10:04] AlanBell, a container of pink glitter and some fangs. pretty cheap costume really [10:09] elky: unicorn is even cheaper [10:09] how? [10:10] empty toilet roll, rubber band and pink glitter [10:10] unicorn is $9.99 a tin http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/e5a7/ [10:10] squish the other end of the toilet roll into a cone, attach it to your forehead with the rubber band, then start sprinkling glitter on people. [10:10] easy. [10:16] Myrtti: have to try that here in the office [10:17] Myrtti: needs to be rainbow glitter for a unicorn, no? [10:18] jussi: IPU is pink, so no [10:19] pink glitter is so versatile [10:20] now you already have two costume suggestions that includes it. [10:20] go forth and go mad.

You hereby denounce your rights to sue, accuse or modify these instructions. [10:21] HTH, HAND. [14:43] Hi i've just been kicked from #ubuntu. I'm not very happy with the attitude of some of the users in there - my 'comments' were called 'pointless' after I am getting quite frustrated with an issue I'm having at the moment, hence my joining of the channel. [14:43] Doesn't exactly bring a good front, does it? [14:44] Osarius: the point of a help channel is to ask for help [14:44] you've not done so [14:44] Actually, I did. [14:44] it's frsutrating for all the other users in the channel to see you complain [14:44] just ask your question, state the problem clearly (as possible) and get a response [14:44] Which I did, I'll state again. [14:44] no need for /me pours hot lava over stuff type comments [14:45] I "asked" you not to make those comments, and you decided to argue and try to be clever [14:45] that's what got you banned [14:45] really easy "please don't make those pointless comments" "sure, no problem" [14:45] that's all that's needed [14:46] I saw no rule saying that those sort of comments are not allowed when I joined. I certaintly don't think it's a valid reason to get banned over. [14:46] as I said, your comments didn't get you banned [14:47] I asked you to not make them, and you chose to argue it [14:47] the channel doesn't need to see the argument, so I moved you to here [14:47] let me show you the channels guidelines [14:47] it may help [14:47] !guidelines | Osarius [14:47] Osarius: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [14:47] Osarius: hi, when you did join the channel, did you see the channel topic? [14:49] I was asking for help about YaCy and Apache2. Got ignored. Few minutes later wrote the /me thing, then was quite harshly asked not to by Ikonia. To be frank I didn't like the attitude, so I threw it back. Shame people can't take what they give out. [14:50] I can take it fine, hence why I'm still talking to you and explaining it [14:50] but the #ubuntu channel doesn't need to see you try to be clever to pretty responsible responses [14:51] I'll leave it to you to srot out [14:51] sort out [14:52] I also don't see 'being clever' as a bannable offence on the guidelines. [14:52] But meh [14:52] Osarius: interestingly you chose to ignore my question, but to comment what you just described, few points: the fact that you didn't get respond in few minutes doesn't mean you were ignored or that you're allowed to ventilate on busy support channel [14:53] Osarius: ban is not necessarily a punishment, in this case ikonia clearly informed that reason was to take the discussion to where it belongs [14:54] #ubuntu is busy channel already, thus we have to keep it free from conversations that doesn't belong to there [14:56] k enough of the finger wagging, got it. I'm a busy sysadmin too. [14:56] finger wagging? [14:56] Ah feck it. [14:57] tsssk [15:00] oh well, I tried to explain things as reasonable as I could [18:09] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1707 users, 9 overflows, 1715 limit)) [18:09] FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1706 users, 9 overflows, 1715 limit)) [18:09] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1705 users, 7 overflows, 1712 limit)) [18:10] Bunch of bots probably? They're all named like a1234 === Amaranthus is now known as Amaranth
