[00:14] em: what can we do to assst you in here, do you have any questions? [00:14] em: If you're idle, we kindly ask you /part, we have a no-idle policy in the -ops room [00:18] wastrel called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic () [00:19] oop, there we go. [00:20] I canna ops in here or I would have [00:20] you coulda if you wanna, just gotta pusha the buttonna [02:19] Hello. In the max-influx of users to #bitcoin, we've managed to attract a few stalker-types. One of the slightly more irritating ones calls himself "cholby" and it looks like you guys got to deal with him a while back too. Can any of you tell me anything about this fellow that might help us over in #bitcoin* ? [02:23] midnightmagic: Should wait for one of the others, but I know that user has also been an issue for other freenode channels and even #freenode itself. [02:24] Unit193: I'm finding references across whole other IRC networks too. Thank you, I've got lots of time, I can wait I'm sure. [02:27] I don't think there is anything we can tell you really that you haven't already figured out for yourself. They are a known network wide issue. [02:28] My suggestion us you try talking to freenode staff and see if there is anything they can do to help your channel. [02:28] s/us/is/ [02:29] For example, if Idoru isn't already there? [02:30] IdleOne: In terms of kickbanning and managing the banlist, we're good I think. idoru helped us a lot with the goatse spammer guy who was extorting money a while back. It's about a once or twice-a-day thing which is nothing in the grand scheme of things, but I thought.. meh, doesn't hurt to ask. [02:30] Occasionally one can get lucky and hear a, "Oh, that's so-and-so from here. All you have to do is email his mom and he stops instantly." [02:31] hah [02:33] freenode has a network bot named eir you can ask about that can help you with managing the banlist, we use our own bot for that. [02:35] oh, you said you were good with that. [02:36] Yeah, really there isn't much else to say. [02:38] IdleOne: Well your comments are much appreciated anyway, thank you. [02:39] sure thing. One is glad to be of service :) [02:40] Unit193, idoru isn't really a cholby antidote, sadly. [07:46] histo called the ops in #ubuntu () [07:48] russian classroom? [07:53] possibly [07:57] and this, ladies and gentlemen, is the reason I don't op or oper when on my mobile. because it's so s l o w. === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [13:06] bleh [15:03] thanks, funkyHat. [15:56] We should probably open up release-party [15:59] NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO [15:59] ?

[17:34] how much of bytes does this xchat take (approximately)?? [17:34] 42 [17:35] all of them [17:35] hehe [19:08] I am switching to oracle if you don't start acting right [19:09] msg me if you want retention [19:10] We are warned [19:10] ? [19:12] dafuq [19:13] stop swearing please or I will report you to freenode staff. kthx [19:13] i'll do it for you [19:13] that would be most efficient [19:13] * jbroome stop. [19:14] yes other jbroome, i will. [19:24] I don't know what just happened [20:04] And if you don't use anything but the default repositories, and don't do any ugly hack changes like installing things outside the package manager, then people could even get support for your "OS" (or respin) here. [20:05] Jordan_U: really? I thought we only supported official releases [20:06] IdleOne: If they don't change the repositories or do any really ugly hacks then it's a respin, and we support those. [20:06] news to me [20:06] The problem with Mint for example is the use of non-official repositories. [20:07] and mate and cinnamon [20:07] the problem with a respin is that there is no way to ensure that there were no ugly hacks [20:07] If I could use my web browser properly at the moment I could find the policy page. [20:07] k1l: Which come from said non-default repository :) [20:08] but cinnamon comes to debian and to ubutnu with 13.04. but cinnamon is based on an old gnome3 base and coould get some problem after 13.04 if they dont update that (on the mint side) [20:09] We would support an Ubuntu respin defaulting to cinnamon if it were cinnamon from the default repositories. [20:09] yep [20:11] and not a single pong was given ;p [20:11] Hm. [20:32] I need to step away, can someone keep an eye on john__ in #ubuntu, I forsee issues in his near future. [20:35] its sorted :/ [22:01] @mark #ubuntu john__ warned again to stick to the guidelines [22:01] The operation succeeded. [22:10] May I ask what kind of bot ubottu is? [22:12] !bot | midnightmagic [22:12] midnightmagic: Hi! I'm #ubuntu-ops's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots [22:18] Thank you. [22:43] midnightmagic: We have a no idling policy in this channel. You're one of the few non irritating idlers but I have to ask you not to. [22:44] You are welcome to come back at anytime if there is anything else we can help you with. [22:47] IdleOne: Understood; I'll come back only to ask questions. Sorry about that: I had actually read the topic and everything, but to get my IRC client to actually leave a channel I have to force it to. So I had left from my point of view and didn't realise I was still here. [22:47] * midnightmagic waves. [22:48] no worries. [22:48] Darn IRC bouncers anyway.. [23:20] open saysme [23:22] open #ubuntu saysme [23:50] hah no.
