Beldarhey I believe robothead is a bot no answers or comments but has ircbot in it's info18:53
Unit193Not as likely, irssi.18:56
knomeit wouldn't be too weird to run an irssi instance as a bot :)18:57
Picithats what ubuntulog is.18:57
Unit193I know, I've kind of done it.18:57
Unit193Yep, ollld irssi IIRC.18:57
knomeme too.18:57
ubottuMonkeyDust called the ops in #ubuntu ()20:08
PiciThat was something.20:09
geniiMost of em from the same IP20:09
FlannelAll the same IP, yeah.20:09
tomawklined a fair bit of it20:10
rwwthanks tomaw20:11
tomawthis is a person that has a more than a few things that skip through the proxy checkers20:11
IdleOnehow come I have pastry on20:11
rwwbecause you opped up 22 hours ago and never deopped20:12
rwwassuming my /lastlog is not misleading me20:12
IdleOnesounds about right20:12
IdleOneI have a feeling you're either going to ban him or i will20:15
bazhangwas that chippyleet?20:18
IdleOneno idea20:18
FlannelThis is going to be fun -_-20:21
marvin-hhCan anyone explain what you have against freedom of speech?20:23
rwwubottu: freedom of speech20:24
ubotturww: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)20:24
rwwof course not20:24
rwwubottu: freedomofspeech20:24
marvin-hhIf Canonical would simply build a working operating system in the first place, I wouldn't have to point out its flaws.20:24
rwwnow where did it go20:24
Flannelmarvin-hh: First off, there's no such thing on IRC.20:24
Flannel!freespeech20:24
ubottuPlease don't pepper the channel with cries of buzzwords like "free speech!", especially when you don't know what they mean or if they're applicable to the current situation. See http://tonyyarusso.com/politics/what-free-speech-isnt for more information.20:24
Flannelrww: that's what you're looking for.20:24
rwwthanks Flannel20:25
rwwubottu: freedomofspeech is <alias> freespeech20:25
ubottuI'll remember that, rww20:25
rwwubottu: freedom of speech is <alias> freespeech20:25
ubottuI'll remember that, rww20:25
marvin-hhFlannel: so, what is #ubuntu then? An alias for #bunchofnazis?20:26
Flannelmarvin-hh: So, look.  I'm going to save us all some time by just giving it to your straight.20:26
FlannelAlso, save you some grief, since I think the sooner we're done, the less deep of a hole you're going to have put yourself in.20:26
marvin-hhThe only thing I have done is told someone that upgrading in its current state is a bad idea.20:27
marvin-hhThere is plenty of documented proof for that.20:27
Flannelmarvin-hh: Yes, warning people about potential problems is on topic.  However your tone was not appropriate.  Given the fact that you were previously walking a line, your leash was temporarily shorter.20:27
marvin-hhThe only thing I can think of which remains is that you want to actually damage the interests of users.20:27
FlannelAfter you were removed, you came back and were still indignant, which is why you were removed so we can have this discussion in here.20:28
rwwThe only secret motive we have here is keeping #ubuntu free of axe-grinding so that people can actually get useful support.20:28
FlannelNow, your discussion in here started off on the wrong foot, which is why your ban won't be resolved at this time.20:28
rwwFlannel and I especially do not care one whit for Canonical's reputation or other such nonsense.20:28
marvin-hhI asked a question in #ubuntu about Xorg and nobody answered.20:28
chuPatience is a virtue!20:29
marvin-hhSo, whatever *you* were doing wasn't support.20:29
FlannelWhen you've cooled off a bit, and can discuss this like a normal person, I'm eager to get your ban resolved, but I'm going to give you at least 12 hours to cool off, so please come back "tomorrow".20:29
rwwThat happens sometimes, yes. Since #ubuntu is community-staffed, sometimes people do not know everything.20:29
rww@btlogin20:29
marvin-hhThis has nothing to do with not knowing everything; the Xorg issues have existed since at least 2012 judging from a quick Google.20:29
marvin-hhThis means that if there is a community, its power is virtually zero.20:30
marvin-hhIts power to effect change in the world, that is.20:30
rwwOkay. You're welcome to look for support elsewhere in addition to #ubuntu if you don't personally find #ubuntu useful.20:30
rwwhttp://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/ has links to various places.20:30
marvin-hhI don't think you should be calling yourself a community, if you aren't one.20:31
marvin-hhWhat makes you believe it's actually a community?20:31
chuWe'll take your opinion into account in the future.20:31
marvin-hhDo you have any events? Are there strong social connections amongst its members?20:31
marvin-hhIf so, how many?20:31
marvin-hhDo you measure those?20:31
Flannelmarvin-hh: Again, nothing is going to get resolved right now, so please stop this discussion and when you come back later, we'll work to resolve your ban.20:31
rwwmarvin-hh: I don't think anyone in here is particularly interested in philosophical musings about whether #ubuntu-* is a community or not. Are you looking to resolve your ban so you can get back in #ubuntu, or not?20:31
rwwah, I guess we're setting that aside for a bit anyway. So yes, what Flannel said.20:32
marvin-hhIf not, aren't you just saying a bunch of things without anything to back it up?20:32
marvin-hhDo you do this often?20:32
knomemarvin-hh, please stop the nonsense and stop wasting everybody's time here.20:32
marvin-hhI am asking simple questions here. If you cannot even answer those, why would I believe in this "community"? If you say that there is a large group of self-interested individuals and or companies which might or might not use Ubuntu then that might be true, but that doesn't make it a community.20:33
Flannelmarvin-hh: Whether we can or cannot answer these questions, no one is going to answer them currently.  Come back later after cooling off.  See you then.20:33
knomemarvin-hh, this is the wrong forum to ask those questions.20:33
marvin-hhknome: the right forum is the wind?20:34
PiciPerhaps this would be better if one person dealt with the questions.... like Flannel here.20:34
* rww nods and steps back20:34
marvin-hhAll I am seeing you do is evading questions.20:34
marvin-hhNot exactly convincing for your position.20:34
Flannelmarvin-hh: I am ignoring questions, beacuse they're not going to be answered right now.  Come back later once you've cleared your head and we'll get your ban resolved.20:35
marvin-hhAnyway, you have had your chance.20:35
Flannelmarvin-hh: See you later.20:35
marvin-hhFlannel: DJones removed my ban, because he considered me to be a reasonable person.20:35
marvin-hhFlannel: well a +q.20:36
marvin-hhFlannel: as such, you are now in direct contradiction with him.20:36
marvin-hhFlannel: so, have fun sorting that out.20:36
marvin-hhDJones: see above.20:36
Flannelmarvin-hh: Will do.  Talk to you later.20:36
marvin-hhFlannel: I sure hope not. You are a very boring person, if you are in fact one.20:36
chulol20:36
marvin-hhFlannel: you sound like a badly programmed bot.20:36
rwwI can confirm that Flannel is a human :)20:37
marvin-hhNothing personal, just a fact. I bet you hear that often.20:37
FlannelYes, I am.  You've got me.  Now, have a nice day, and we'll see you soon.20:37
marvin-hhThere is nothing left for me to say to you.20:38
rwwOkay. Have a nice day, and please /part to keep the channel free for other issues.20:38
marvin-hhFlannel: you basically said that my, I quote, "tone", was not appropriate.20:39
marvin-hhYou really have a hard time with constructing an argument, don't you?20:39
rwwoh for pete's sake20:39
Flannelmarvin-hh: I did say your tone was inappropriate, yes.  That's why you're not in #ubuntu right now.20:39
marvin-hhI recommend you do some training in forming arguments.20:39
rww@mark #ubuntu-ops marvin-hh failed to resolve #ubuntu ban, asked to return when clear-headed by Flannel, failed to take hints about leaving; kicked; rejoined; banned for a few minutes20:40
ubottuThe operation succeeded.20:40
rww(hopefully he got the point)20:43
Piciikonia: was a ban needed for that?20:45
ikoniayes20:45
ikoniapicking up where he left off in ops20:45
ikoniathere is zero need for the utter crap he's spewing to kick off in ANY other channel20:45
Flannelikonia: No, he picked up from where he left off in #u20:45
ikoniano, he really didn't20:46
Flannelyeah, we went back to graphics "support"20:46
ikonia"please provide proof before pressing enter"20:46
ikoniahe's just being a tool20:46
ikoniayou want to try to negotiate with him - enjoy20:46
ikoniathere is zero real discussion with him20:46
* rww goes afk20:46
Flannelikonia: Sorry, you made this bed.  Banning everyone you don't like is not an appropriate policy.20:47
ikoniawhat bed ?20:47
ikoniait's nothing to do with not liking him20:47
IdleOneSo I set the ban I placed in #ubuntu to expire in 7 days. Flannel if you want to adjust that feel free20:55
ubottuOerHeks called the ops in #ubuntu ()21:05
