[09:04] can i have a member cloak? my LP is launchpad.net/~noskcaj [13:19] IRCC ^ can you please authorise an Ubuntu cloak for Noskcaj? [13:21] well you know, he's not online [13:21] I was here before as well requesting one, https://launchpad.net/~snwh :) [13:21] Myrtti: I know :-) but I did not see any response from the IRCC [13:22] snwh: BTW, thank you for all your help -- we appreciate it [13:22] hggdh: the point being that if they're not online and identified to the services, there's little to confirm that they actually want it [13:22] * Pici looks [13:23] hggdh, my pleasure :) [13:23] Myrtti: could you please grant snwh an ubuntu/member/snwh cloak? [13:23] even if IRCC approves, staff *might* not do it if they're not online and confirm personally. [13:24] Pici: sure [13:24] ok, I think I deserved my right to have one of those too :P [13:24] snwh: congrats :) [13:24] there we go! [13:24] Myrtti: I understand that, and accept it. But it all starts with the council asking you folks for it ;-) [13:24] Pici, thanks :) [13:25] me4oslav: are you an Ubuntu Member? [13:25] Pici: yup, became one yesterday [13:25] Pici: he is, approved by us yesterday [13:25] the 2200 UTC elections yesterday [13:25] hggdh: I would also hope IRCC would have the same diligence on granting the cloaks, though ;-) [13:25] me4oslav: could you please share your launchpad id/profile page? [13:25] Myrtti: :-) [13:25] Pici: https://launchpad.net/~kokoto-java [13:26] me4oslav: congrats on membership :) [13:26] Pici: Thanks, man! =) [13:26] Myrtti: could you please grant me4oslav an ubuntu/member/me4oslav cloak? [13:27] there we go [13:27] woo [13:27] Myrtti: thanks :) [13:27] lovely [13:28] smashing :) [13:29] may I recommend SASL for you folks [13:29] Thanks all [13:29] it works wonders for identifying before joining any channels [13:29] yup, it's really cute :3 [14:14] ? [14:15] just set your nickserv password as server password and you're set? [14:15] i.e. happens while connecting to server, and definately before joining channels [14:15] Nafallo: we recommend http://freenode.net/sasl/ [14:16] Nafallo: if your client can't do that: yes, youraccount:yourpassword (including the :) as server password should do. SASL works better though (server password has a possible race condition) [14:16] only your password works as well, but we do recommend youraccountname:yourpassword since then it will work from any nick [14:17] hrm. okay... I've never had troubles with just using the server password though, and I've used it for years now :-) [14:17] it works most of the time [14:17] I don't re-connect often enough ;-) [14:17] keep my irc box on ksplice updates and all that :-) [14:17] SASL is just recommended over it, and the yourname: thingie is recommended if you, for some reason, can't/won't connect from your nick [14:18] okay. good to know :-) [14:19] I've known the SASL plugin for irssi to fail, so have both setup. [14:19] I've never had any issues with it myself. [14:20] I just set up a 75 random character password for myself. [14:20] fun times. [14:21] now that I know the length it's easier to bruteforce ;-) [14:21] ok, let's make it the maximum length then ;-) [14:21] Nafallo: indeed bruteforcing a staffer password is an awesome idea and I'd recommend it, you even get a chocolate cake for that! [14:22] Fuchs: heh, I wasn't being serious :-) [14:22] Nafallo: I think you were, hence I called the policy, FBI and CIA [14:22] better put the kettle on and start baking, for your visitors :) [14:23] heh, they couldn't find me... not even my bank managed to find me. AFTER I gave them the address ;-) [14:23] I've just moved countries, and I'm still waiting to get re-registered :-) [14:23] I hope they have good cake and tea wherever you moved to *nods* [14:24] better than where I moved from :-) [14:24] good, good. Do continue, then. [14:24] hehe [14:24] however... me making a cake. not sure it's legal to poison FBI agents ;-) [14:25] Nafallo: oo, no UK anymore? [14:25] nope [14:25] everything just got way too expensive. [14:25] and I didn't want to neglect my standards to get it cheaper :-) [14:26] so moved somewhere cheaper with higher standards ;-) [14:26] hehe [14:26] so I see [14:26] Nafallo: mind me asking where that would be? [14:26] I can see both, just not the combination [14:26] Fuchs: Sweden :-) [14:26] one of the best countries to live in in the world, according to a bunch of research ;-) [14:27] Surprised by "cheaper", then. Anyway, enjoy. Lovely landscapes from what I've seen [14:27] I am quite happy with Switzerland, but I am sure Sweden is nice as well [14:27] cna get a 2 bed flat for ~£450 a month :-) [14:27] and that's middle of big cities [14:28] the annoying thing is that you have to be in a queue to actually get the places, since they haven't got enough flats for the people wanting to come here :-P [14:28] well, it probably depends on how much money you make whether this is good or not, [14:28] e.g. in switzerland apartments are very expensive, but you also earn a lot of money [14:28] it's still good. I was sick of paying more than double that for a single room in London, with house-sharing ;-) [14:29] well London is London. [14:29] Fuchs: s/apartments are/everything is/ [14:29] London is always expensive. [14:29] London hurts. I go to London in 3 weeks, and even the hotels are expensive as hell :( [14:29] London kept putting up pricing on EVERYTHING. [14:29] Glad I'll be close to Oxford most of the time, and only one night in London [14:29] jpds: most things, not everything [14:30] Fuchs: Exceptions being? [14:30] they even put up my mobile contract I signed a couple of years back :-/ [14:30] jpds: petrol, as an example, is cheaper than in the neighbour countries. [14:30] Blah, who needs petrol when you have SBB. ;-) [14:30] I don't, I don't even have a car, only a GA. Just to mention an example. [14:30] Also today a car would have been nice. [14:32] Fuchs: GA is quite expensive. [14:33] * jpds gets around with G7+1/2. [14:33] jpds: I still count as a student so I get the cheaper price until August, and I work for a former Staatsbetrieb, hence it is even more cheap [14:34] jpds: where do you live, if I may ask? (also: sorry for the noise all, if you want us to move this, do tell) [14:34] Fuchs: Moving to /msg. [14:53] hi, anyone using PackageInfo plugin for supybot? i get a strange error [14:54] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5629354/ [15:09] that reminds me... jpds: ubot2 is still on some really old version for !info, and answers in here... [15:10] !info apt [15:10] 'maverick' is not a valid distribution: [15:10] apt (source: apt): commandline package manager. In component main, is important. Version 0.9.7.7ubuntu4 (raring), package size 1154 kB, installed size 3282 kB [15:10] ^-- jpds: that :-P [15:23] found the solution, i downloaded the latest version from brz of PackageInfo and returned working [15:23] maybe was a too old version [21:34] can i have a members cloak please? launchpad.net/~noskcaj [21:35] probably. IRCC? [21:38] ? [21:38] Noskcaj: the IRC council has to verify & ask the freenode staff to get it [21:39] evening all [21:39] Noskcaj: sorry, hi, yes, what hggdh wrote [21:39] ok [21:39] hi Noskcaj, lets have a see [21:39] Noskcaj: AlanBell would be one of them, just hang on [21:40] looks good to me, Fuchs can you apply an /ubuntu/member/noskcaj cloak please [21:40] AlanBell: done [21:40] Noskcaj: congratulations :) [21:40] thanks Fuchs [21:40] congrats Noskcaj :) [21:40] Noskcaj: welcome to the marvelous world of Ubuntu and cloaks [21:41] thank you [21:46] * genii-around makes celebratory coffee
