MurkyBananahi daftykins00:26
ikoniahe's not in here00:26
ikoniaoh he is00:27
ikoniawhat's up ?00:27
ikoniadaftykins: what's up ?00:28
daftykinsi was just directed toward the channel log - and feel greatly inconvenienced seeing that conversation in PM was taken here and shared.00:28
daftykinsthat's not only bad netiquette, but in my opinion wrong on a personal level00:29
ikonia?00:30
daftykinsthe log also points out that there are those of you who take an interest in the management of my conduct in a way that's far less than objective00:30
ikoniasorry, don't know what you're on about, any chanc eyou could fill me in ?00:30
daftykinsi was PM'd with regard to my conduct in #ubuntu - and my conversation there was pasted here.00:31
ikoniaI've certainly not seen that/aware of it00:32
ikoniaprobably best to just talk to the guy you're not happy with00:33
daftykinswell that's not relevant00:33
daftykinsmy comments obviously refer to more than one user00:33
ikonia.....ok00:33
ikonianot obviously as I don't know what you're talking about00:33
ikoniasorry00:33
daftykinsobvious given that i used the words 'there are those of you'00:34
daftykinsanyway, i'm not getting sidelined into some grammatical debate00:34
ikoniaok, you seem a bit annoyed, understandable, and as I don't know what this is about, i'll back away as I don't want to cause any more angry00:34
rwwikonia: it's about http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2014/09/14/%23ubuntu-ops.html00:34
daftykinsi'm disappointed in those mentioned, i wouldn't say anger.00:35
rwwand since I'm assuming that I'm "far less than objective" because I have an opinion, i'm not dealing with it00:35
daftykinsrww: you weren't the target of that comment there, but it's useful to know that we can't have a conversation about the issues i've raised00:36
ikoniadaftykins: ok, so some of the operators have had a conversation that you're not happy about, I understand that, what would you like to happen ?00:36
rwwdaftykins: well, as you can see, I tend to strongly agree that you need to take a break. since your response to bazhang was... apparently not positive... i figured my similar opinion also would not be00:36
rwws/$/ welcome/00:37
rwwanyways, my apologies for misinterpreting00:37
daftykinsthat idea isn't the current topic, sir00:37
ikoniadaftykins: what would you like to happen ?00:38
daftykinstell me, is it normal that you have someone approach a user privately who then reproduces their conversation in here to you all?00:38
ikoniacertainly not the norm00:38
rwwand as far as posting PMs goes: while I agree that posting such PMs publicly was not particularly tactful, I think it's reasonable that such conversations be shared with ops in general (e.g. in our unlogged channel)00:38
rwwso I will LART bazhang a bit for doing that00:39
daftykinsit's evident from the log that he was developing a bit of an issue with my actions at the time before he decided to contact me, in which case it was definitely not appropriate that he did00:40
daftykinswhich is what i would guess led to the unsavoury result00:40
ikoniaok - so what would you like to happen00:41
ikoniahow can we make this better for you ?00:41
daftykinscan you calm down on the pressuring please, i'm not exactly operating at full capacity right now00:41
ikoniaok, perhaps best to come back when you're feeling better00:41
ikonialast thing I want to do is make you feel worse00:42
daftykinsno i can cope with this conversation as long as you don't keep subverting it00:42
daftykins:)00:42
ikoniathen please tell us what you want00:42
ikoniahow we can make it better for you00:42
rwwsuggestion: 1) daftykins, take a few days off, IRC sucks when one isn't doing well (I know firsthand), 2) everyone else (including me) should ponder appropriate behavior in public channels00:42
daftykinsikonia: you're really not helping :P00:43
daftykinsobviously i don't want to hear of a repeat of this, you guys are not above 'the law' and so shouldn't act like this00:43
ikoniadaftykins: I've got a better idea then00:44
daftykinspersonal events in my life have no bearing on your 'job'00:44
ikoniahow about a.) you leave this channel and come back when you can communicate better00:44
ikoniaI'm getting a bit tired of your attitude now00:44
ikoniaasking how we can make it better for you is not trying to cause a problem00:44
daftykinsseriously? i just want to say my piece and you're badgering me00:44
ikoniait's trying to understand what we can do to make it feel better00:44
ikoniayeah, seriously00:45
daftykinsthere's not even that much i want to say but you keep interrupting00:45
ikoniathen go00:45
daftykinsanywho in addition, i have an issue with seeing myself developing some 'bad record' when you guys have no way of allowing anyone to create a good record00:46
daftykinsno user can say to you, oh hey user x helped with so-and-so query - they did good00:46
ikoniaerrr we see that all the time00:46
daftykinsso you only have a neutral reference point and then negatives00:47
ikoniano we don't00:47
daftykins'that'?00:47
ikoniawe see great people all the time00:47
ikoniaand have high opinions of a lot of good people00:47
rwwamusingly, we get people in here complaining that we play favorites and let regulars get away with things that randoms don't00:47
daftykinspurely off your own memory though?00:47
ikoniano00:47
daftykinsor you have some kind of system...00:47
ikoniaoff logs, repeated good contributions, memory, discussions with others00:48
ikoniaa mixture of many things00:48
daftykinsseems unlikely that you would trawl logs for good things versus bad :)00:48
ikoniawe don't trawl logs for good / bad00:48
ikoniaunless there is a specific reason to check a log00:49
daftykinseither way, i seem to be getting in the crosshairs a bit too much00:50
daftykinsand that log showed some a little more heated than others00:50
ikoniawhat is it you actually want ?00:51
daftykinsto make the above feelings known, which i've now done00:51
ikoniaok, I'm sorry you feel that, but part of that is down to your incorrect assumptions00:51
daftykinsikonia: i'm genuinely at a loss as to why i've aggravated you just by wanting to discuss some things by the way.00:52
daftykinsoh? which assumptions were they?00:52
ikoniahonestly ?00:52
ikoniathat we don't have good perceptions of people00:52
ikoniaI dra00:53
ikoniaI dread to ask, but I will00:53
ikonia"how can we make you feel better about this"?00:54
daftykinssec my cat is attacking something she shouldn't00:54
ikoniano-one wants you feeling like it's all negative peceptions, so have a think and if there is something to discuss about how we can make you feel a bit better about things within the channel, we can discuss it00:55
daftykinswell i seemed to manage to even get you riled purely from wanting to have a chat :P00:55
daftykinsso that's a little concerning00:55
ikonianot really00:55
ikoniayou got me riles up because you describve the team as "fuck tards"00:55
ikoniabrag to a troll channel00:56
ikoniawhich provokes a troll abuse hit and run00:56
ikoniaand then come in with a sad story00:56
daftykinsi can't control the actions of others, i was pretty annoyed at that though00:56
ikoniayeah you can00:56
ikoniaa.) the team is fuck tards00:56
ikoniayou said that - you can control your self00:56
ikoniab.) you know the people in the channel - you know their attitude, yet you still chose to do it, knowing what it often causes00:57
ikoniayou control that00:57
daftykinsdo what?00:57
ikoniaso again - your sad story of a pm - which I accept isn't nice, and I'm sure we can do better with that, doesn't really make me shed tears00:57
daftykinshmm, you're changing tack a fair bit00:58
ikoniano, I'm not00:58
ikoniayou've come in to complain, I get that, I'm happy to help make it better00:58
ikoniabut it's hard to take the "negative peception" complaint seriously, when you describe the people you are trying ot talk to as fucktards to a known troll put00:58
ikoniapit00:58
daftykinsbut anyway, i'd be nice if there'd be some up front discussion prior to any drastic actions be taken, shall we say00:58
ikoniayou want respect, and polite conversation, think about the peception you give out00:58
ikoniadaftykins: it would be nice if there was some discussion before you call the team fucktards00:59
daftykinssounds more like you're talking about channel users rather than you ops, now00:59
ikoniadaftykins: no, I'm talking about you00:59
ikoniayour actions00:59
ikoniayour way you want to discuss things00:59
daftykinsi'm not going to defend a frustrated remark on seeing what conduct went on.00:59
ikoniadaftykins: good,00:59
ikoniathen I'm not going to defend an op sharing his concerns about your comments with the team01:00
ikoniain future we'll try to do that better in private01:00
daftykinsi didn't even know what channel he was from when i got PM'd01:00
ikoniaso ?01:00
ikoniaI'm sure he talked to you about it and explained the channel01:00
ikoniaor what does it matter01:01
daftykinsnope01:01
daftykinsno intro, just a riddle of advice which seemed to come from nowhere01:01
daftykinsit was all a bit of a mess really01:02
ikoniathats easy to clean up01:02
ikoniaI'd hardly call that an issue01:02
daftykinsit's just really quite disappointing to see how you guys function01:02
daftykinsnow i mean i'd been warned, but i'd not seen it first hand01:02
ikoniathanks for sharing your dissapointment01:03
ikoniaI'm pretty concerned how you function / or don't function to be honest01:03
ikoniaI'd always supported your help, but I'm questioning that now01:03
daftykinsthat sounds a little personal01:03
ikoniayes, it is01:03
ikoniaI'm concerned about how you function within the IRC channels/don't function01:03
ikoniato clarify01:03
daftykinssupported my help? what kind01:04
ikoniayou know the negative peception stuff you referenced earlier01:04
ikoniaI've always said positive stuff01:04
ikonia(certainly that I can remember)01:04
daftykinsi'm genuinely saddened to hear you say that's changed, i don't really see how i've done that01:04
ikoniaahh well01:05
ikonianot to worry01:05
ikoniahowever I fully understand your dissapointed about the percieved poor communication01:05
ikoniaI'm sure we will do better to make sure private conversations aren't shared in a public channel01:06
ikoniaand that there is a better introduction to a private conversation01:06
daftykinsthat would definitely be useful.01:06
ikoniaI know I've certianly not done the best introductions in pm's in the best01:06
ikoniacan't promise it won't happen, as humans slip up, but it's certainly not the norm01:07
daftykinsa good analogy i think would be that of police visiting a property, you know who they are from the uniform. on IRC - not everyone's going to sit there and whois everyone - if that would even give anything away01:07
daftykinsso yeah, wouldn't hurt for a brief exchange with PMs01:07
ikoniaI'm not really interested in an analogy01:07
daftykinswow01:08
ikoniaI'm interested in not sharing pm data incorrectly, and being more clear / better introduction in pm01:08
daftykinsright, well it's becoming pretty apparent that you'd rather i be on my way given that tone there01:09
ikoniayes,01:09
ikoniapersonally I would01:09
daftykinsthis is just adding to the negatives with you guys, FYI01:09
ikoniaFYI: it's added to the negative of you FYI01:10
ikoniajust being honest01:10
daftykinsmmmhmm, that's a little school level01:10
ikonianot at all01:10
ikoniait's not tit for tat01:10
ikoniait's the truth01:10
ikoniaif you want me to lie and saw "I'd love you to stay and blow up an mistake with a pm" then sure,01:11
daftykinssorry i don't follow that sentence01:11
ikoniabut I don't think that will help anyone01:11
ikoniafully understand about the pm though, and I'm sure we can and will do better with that01:11
daftykinsand hopefully open up a dialogue before any drastic actions too01:12
ikoniadrastic actions ?01:12
ikoniait was a pm ?01:12
ikoniano-ones done anything drastic01:12
daftykinsi'm referring to the future01:12
daftykinshence the 'before' bit01:12
ikoniadepends01:12
ikoniaif you chose to speak to "US" before ranting in other channels and calling the team names, I'm sure that will open a dialog01:13
ikoniaif you chose to continue to behave as you are doing, I can't see it being helpful01:13
daftykinsas in right this moment, coming in here?01:14
ikoniathat would be a start01:14
ikoniaor talking to the people involved01:14
ikoniawhatever you feel comfortable with01:14
daftykinsno, i'm asking if that's what you mean by 'behave as you are doing'01:14
ikoniacheck the advice you where given from rww and bazhang01:14
ikoniarather than go over it again01:15
ikoniaor better still, talk to them in more detail01:15
ikonia(if it's unclear)01:15
daftykinsnah i just didn't follow your sentences there for the first couple of reads01:16
ikoniaok01:16
daftykinsok, ta-ra for now then01:17
ikoniabye01:17
bazhang<ruu> when did ubuntu switch from main/contrib/nonfree to main/restricted/universe/multiverse?01:34
bazhangis he confusing debain?01:34
ikonialooks that way01:35
=== Mamarok_ is now known as Mamarok
bazhang!info selinux11:27
ubottuselinux (source: selinux): Security-Enhanced Linux runtime support. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.11 (trusty), package size 10 kB, installed size 82 kB11:28
bazhanghow is selinux not supported11:28
ikoniahe's not using selinux11:28
ikoniahe's trying to set up scientific linux for his intern job11:28
ikoniaI spoke to him about it 2 times already stating that #ubuntu does not support SL11:28
ikoniahe agreed11:28
ikoniaand he keeps using #ubuntu for his "intern" support so he doesn't have to ask his mentors11:29
ikoniaeg: setting up a HP pro-curve switch11:29
ikoniahe's been spoken to about using #ubuntu as #intern-support at least 5 times11:29
ikoniaand about SL 2 more times11:29
