[07:14] <dholbach> good morning
[08:11] <AskUbuntu> Try Installation Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on Vmware | http://askubuntu.com/q/484917
[21:05] <technoviking> Did anyone else get political spam from Ashlee Stalcup at there @ubuntu.com address
[21:05] <pleia2> yep
[21:06] <technoviking> yeah the is Vorian (old forum admins) wife
[21:06] <belkinsa> I'm getting "RE: How have you been ?" ones and it's foraged
[21:06] <technoviking> think spamming other Ubuntu Member should be againist the CoC:)
[21:07] <belkinsa> It is but they could be taken over by a bot
[21:07] <popey> technoviking: i did
[21:08] <popey> i got it to my personal email address, not my ubuntu one
[21:08] <elfy> hi technoviking - fc m/l got it too :)
[21:09] <pleia2> yeah, cc as well
[21:09] <pleia2> seems like his whole addressbook ;)
[21:09] <elfy> yep
[21:09] <elfy> didn't know it was his wife - but I guessed :)
[21:10] <popey> What a dick move.
[21:10] <technoviking> sigh... Vorian has "issues" sometimes, so tread lightly:)
[21:10] <popey> Then again boundaries never were his strong point.
[21:10] <pleia2> indeed
[21:10] <technoviking> lol
[21:10] <elfy> I'd not vote - but I'm not close enough to Idaho to be able to :)
[21:10] <popey> Also, hello technoviking, long time no see!
[21:11] <technoviking> cheers popey
[21:11] <mhall119> I'm not against the principle of getting your FOSS friends on board politically....but this wasn't the right way to go abou tit
[21:11] <pleia2> btw, Idaho is a state, it's in the west part of the country
[21:11] <pleia2> :)
[21:11] <elfy> the country?
[21:11] <pleia2> US
[21:11] <elfy> pretty sure that's Cornwall :D
[21:12] <mhall119> lol
[21:12] <mhall119> elfy: a bit further west than that
[21:13] <elfy> Ireland?
[21:13] <elfy> :D
[21:13] <mhall119> wester-er
[21:13] <elfy> ha ha ha
[21:13] <technoviking> I live close, but in a different state
[21:13] <elfy> and hi technoviking from me too :)
[21:13] <jose> I have been receiving "How have you been?" emails with a spam/scam link to ubuntu-pe-owner@lists.u.c, more than 50 or even 100 today
[21:13] <belkinsa> Same, RT knows thougg
[21:13] <mhall119> the CC email had a different subject, and was sent from the campaign's email not an @ubuntu one
[21:14] <belkinsa> RT said, "I suspect that what you are seeing are forgeries, and not actually
[21:14] <belkinsa> mailing list postings.".
[21:14] <pleia2> mhall119: btw, I hit the unsub button for cc
[21:14] <pleia2> belkinsa: yeah
[21:14] <mhall119> thanks pleia2 :)
[21:15] <belkinsa> That spambot seems to hit many lists, atcive and dead ones alike
[21:15] <pleia2> they all do
[21:15] <pleia2> I just clean up the queue and move on, spam is spam
[21:16] <popey> Spamming people makes you unfit for public office IMHO.
[21:16] <pleia2> hehe
[21:16] <belkinsa> Yeah, I delete everything that is my Bulk mail
[21:16] <belkinsa> Well, almost everything, miss fallen things get moved back to my inbox
[21:17] <mhall119> popey: there's an old saying, I don't recall who or what the exact wording was, but something along the lines of "wanting to hold public office makes you unfit to hold public office" :)
[21:17] <popey> "If you've received unsolicited mail from one of our users, please notify us immediately at abuse@verticalresponse.com. Every complaint is investigated, and you will receive a response from our abuse team detailing the action we’re taking to deal with the issue."
[21:17] <popey> fwiw
[21:18] <pleia2> mhall119: nice
[21:18] <popey> mhall119: yeah, I have heard the same
[21:19] <popey> Hows the CC btw? ☻
[21:19] <pleia2> tsk :)
[21:20] <popey> :D
[21:20] <mhall119> popey: you know how it is, never anything to do :)
[21:20] <popey> Indeed, slackers.
[21:20]  * popey wanders off
[21:21]  * belkinsa hides back in the shadows.
[21:22] <technoviking> move the buttons again, that will give you something to do:)
[21:23] <mhall119> did the buttons thing ever become a CC issue?
[21:23] <mhall119> I can't imagine what the CC would do there
[21:23] <elfy> send people mirrors ...
[21:27] <popey> http://havethebuttonsmovedbackyet.com/
[21:27] <technoviking> I remember having to discuss it at a CC meeting
[21:28] <popey> someone was recently adamant that the whole reason the buttons moved was because of Windicators.
[21:28] <popey> Also adamant that they moved in 10.10.
[21:28] <popey> I pointed out screenshots of 10.04 but this didnt help.
[21:30] <elfy> I'd have been surprised if it had helped
[21:33] <popey> ☻
