Unit193 | hggdh: Still up? | 00:35 |
---|---|---|
hggdh | Unit193: still, for another 15 minutes | 02:39 |
Unit193 | amjjawad was and is on now. :P | 02:42 |
hggdh | staff: please set a cloak ubuntu/member/amjjawad for amjjawad | 02:45 |
hggdh | Unit193: thank you. Again :-) | 02:45 |
hggdh | prolly will need to go #freenode | 02:46 |
amjjawad | Hi, I've been trying to get my ubuntu clock for 3 days now with no progress | 06:50 |
amjjawad | I understand it is the time zone thing but I'm not sure why after all what I have done to Ubuntu for 4 years, I must keep waiting for 3 days with no progress | 06:51 |
amjjawad | the process MUST be much more simple and easier IMHO :) | 06:52 |
Mikaela | Tm_T: would you be awake? If I have understood correctly, you are one of those people who can give permission for cloak and you should be on same TZ as I am. ^^ | 06:53 |
Mikaela | 2014-12-05 08:53:49+0200 | 06:53 |
rww | considering that hggdh already requested one, it's more bottlenecked on staff right now | 06:55 |
* rww looks for an active one | 06:55 | |
amjjawad | there are many people in Australia and Asia who might be very happy to help when needed. | 06:55 |
Mikaela | oh, I see. | 06:55 |
Mikaela | I wonder when will they get their GMS open. | 06:55 |
rww | that would rather simplify things | 06:56 |
amjjawad | IMHO, with all due respect: people don't plan to fail, they fail to plan. | 06:56 |
rww | amjjawad: diving into the conversation of "freenode staff coverage is amusing" is a maze you probably don't want to get into | 06:56 |
amjjawad | AFAIK, it is not the freenode staff who we are waiting for | 06:57 |
rww | < rww> | considering that hggdh already requested one, it's more bottlenecked on staff right now | 06:57 |
amjjawad | AFAIK, we are waiting someone from the 4 Ubuntu IRC Council | 06:57 |
rww | although perhaps he did the usual IRCC thing and asked in here and not #freenode for some reason | 06:57 |
rww | and it's not 4, it's 3. and there's an ongoing nomination process to get back up to 5 | 06:57 |
rww | (and I gather one of them's a bit busy in real life right now, so... 2.5?) | 06:58 |
amjjawad | hopefully one of them will be based on Asia/Australia :) | 06:58 |
rww | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-irc/2014-November/001768.html | 06:59 |
rww | if you know anyone suitable ^ :) | 06:59 |
amjjawad | rww, tell me about real life :) I could write books about that. I understand how painful that is. | 06:59 |
Mikaela | If I have understood correctly, one Australian is going to apply. | 06:59 |
amjjawad | rww, IRC is not my thing, otherwise I would have applied and helped | 07:00 |
rww | amusingly, it's actually two Australians, but I imported one of them to the USA :P | 07:00 |
amjjawad | I have done heaps of stuff to Ubuntu for 4 years so I won't be late but I just don't like IRC much and have no time for it | 07:00 |
Mikaela | IRC would be my thing and some people think that I should apply when they are being scary, but luckily I am not even member and I can use that as excuse. | 07:00 |
amjjawad | I will send it to the LoCo team here | 07:00 |
rww | ah, he did ask staff in #freenode. none of them replied. | 07:03 |
amjjawad | email sent :) hope someone will step in. | 07:03 |
Unit193 | rww: He normally does. | 07:03 |
rww | Unit193: good good | 07:03 |
amjjawad | so? looks like I need to wait for some other day? | 07:05 |
Tm_T | Mikaela: let's see | 07:07 |
rww | Tm_T: I just poked jayne :) | 07:07 |
Tm_T | rww: ah, thanks | 07:08 |
Mikaela | amjjawad: I think maybe you should also be at #freenode | 07:08 |
amjjawad | Mikaela, do I? | 07:09 |
rww | generally staff will just PM if they need you to confirm, so not really | 07:09 |
Mikaela | usually staffers have asked for confirmation of cloaked person from what I have followed and Tm_T and rww are currently talking with staffer there | 07:09 |
Mikaela | oh, I see | 07:09 |
rww | (heck, I used to just memoserv for mass requests :) | 07:09 |
amjjawad | channel joined, just in case :) | 07:10 |
rww | there we go, all sorted :) | 07:10 |
rww | and: congratulations :) | 07:11 |
amjjawad | I guess I need to log out and log back in, correcT? | 07:11 |
amjjawad | correct* | 07:11 |
Mikaela | congratulations | 07:11 |
Mikaela | no, it was already applied | 07:11 |
Tm_T | amjjawad: no, it's applied already | 07:11 |
Mikaela | and will always be applied when you identify to NickServ | 07:11 |
amjjawad | hmm, can't see that yet | 07:11 |
amjjawad | thank you for everything | 07:11 |
rww | amjjawad: /whois amjjawad. top line is what other see, we don't see the later one | 07:11 |
Mikaela | 2014-12-05 09:10:26+0200 <-- amjjawad (~amjjawad@c122-107-110-79.blktn5.nsw.optusnet.com.au) has quit (Changing host) | 07:12 |
Mikaela | 2014-12-05 09:10:26+0200 --> amjjawad (~amjjawad@ubuntu/member/amjjawad) has joined #ubuntu-irc | 07:12 |
rww | (the later one being the "is connecting one" line, I think the wording is) | 07:12 |
rww | from ** | 07:12 |
amjjawad | thank you all, once more :) | 07:13 |
Mikaela | has certificate... and and is connecting from... if I recall correctly. Channel list is also hidden from everyone else than you except those channels that you share with the whoiser unless you are using umode -i (like me) but secret channels +s are hidden. | 07:13 |
Mikaela | you don't see has certificate... if you arne't using certfp | 07:13 |
Mikaela | you're welcome :) | 07:13 |
amjjawad | So, you're not yet a member, Mikaela ? | 07:14 |
Mikaela | no, I am not | 07:15 |
amjjawad | if you don't mind another Q: which community you're part of? | 07:15 |
Mikaela | the progress looks too difficult for me and I am not active enough and millions of different reasons | 07:15 |
Mikaela | mainly Ubuntu Finland and Ubuntu Women, I think | 07:15 |
amjjawad | I understand of course | 07:15 |
amjjawad | Since I'm the Ubuntu GNOME Community Manger, I can't help and must always ask :) | 07:16 |
Mikaela | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/mikaela is my wiki page if you are interested | 07:16 |
amjjawad | are you interested to join Ubuntu GNOME? | 07:16 |
amjjawad | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad is mine | 07:16 |
Mikaela | I don't think I could do anything useful and I am using MATE as my primary desktop environment | 07:16 |
amjjawad | Mikaela, you never know, you might be more useful than anyone else so just in case: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/GettingInvolved | 07:17 |
Mikaela | You seem to have done a lot and your wiki page is a lot longer than mine | 07:17 |
amjjawad | Mikaela, 4 years, 24/7 | 07:18 |
Mikaela | I can probably come to idle to your channel if you have any, but I don't think I can | 07:18 |
amjjawad | people don't believe I'm human, they think I'm a robot | 07:18 |
amjjawad | You don't see your real skills and talent. You're talented, find your talent :) everyone has something inside and could be helpful | 07:19 |
Mikaela | I wonder if people think that about me for being at IRC nearly 24/7 and bouncer might not help | 07:19 |
amjjawad | I have recruited many who are now Team Leaders :) | 07:19 |
Mikaela | I don't think I will become anything | 07:20 |
amjjawad | I disagree | 07:20 |
amjjawad | so many people said the same statement | 07:20 |
amjjawad | and they are doing many useful things | 07:20 |
amjjawad | a side from Ubuntu GNOME, Lubuntu, StartUbuntu, Ubuntu QA and I forgot where else .. I'm the founder of ToriOS | 07:21 |
amjjawad | based on Ubuntu but not an official flavor | 07:21 |
amjjawad | http://torios.org/ | 07:21 |
amjjawad | just in case that is interested for you :) | 07:21 |
Mikaela | the only thing I seem to be doing is IRC support for Supybot and I cannot even code :( | 07:21 |
amjjawad | Oh, I am not a coder :) | 07:22 |
amjjawad | But I'm good with the other things I do | 07:22 |
amjjawad | I started from Ubuntu Forums :) giving technical support | 07:22 |
Mikaela | Forums were never my thing | 07:22 |
amjjawad | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1812877 | 07:22 |
amjjawad | a year later, joined Lubuntu and had changed a lot for 2 years | 07:23 |
Mikaela | Your devel channel ( #ubuntu-gnome-devel ) looks a little empty by the way | 07:23 |
amjjawad | I'm not a developer Mikaela so I don't go there | 07:23 |
amjjawad | I don't like IRC but the recent changes in my life forced me to like it :) | 07:23 |
amjjawad | and use it | 07:23 |
Mikaela | It only has me, chanserv and ubuntulog2 | 07:23 |
amjjawad | Trust me, you can do a lot. You don't need to be a developer | 07:24 |
Mikaela | I find developer channels often interesting | 07:24 |
amjjawad | I'm on #ubuntu-gnome almost daily | 07:24 |
amjjawad | but if you're not a coder, what is the point? | 07:24 |
Mikaela | I don't think I can do anything and I am mostly at IRC because I don't have any other kind of sociality | 07:24 |
Mikaela | they often announce commits and issues without having to open email client | 07:24 |
amjjawad | hmm, maybe IRC support? | 07:25 |
Mikaela | and some like #inspircd.dev are like offtopic channels | 07:25 |
Mikaela | (not on this network) | 07:25 |
Mikaela | maybe if I knew anything about anything | 07:25 |
amjjawad | Ok, I don't give up so here is another try: http://amjjawad.net/kibo/ | 07:25 |
Mikaela | Tm_T: have you and valorie and who else recruited amjjawad into your conspiracy or something? | 07:26 |
Tm_T | Mikaela: who is amjjawad? | 07:26 |
amjjawad | Mikaela, no one recruits me, I do recruit people ;) | 07:27 |
Mikaela | amjjawad: you aren't the only one, it started from Tm_T from what I can see | 07:27 |
amjjawad | who is Tm_T ? | 07:27 |
amjjawad | never heard of him/her | 07:28 |
Tm_T | amjjawad: good question, let me know when you find out | 07:28 |
Mikaela | what is "maanitella" in English? | 07:28 |
amjjawad | Tm_T, maybe when you find out about me ;) | 07:28 |
Mikaela | "persuade" and "wheedle" don't seem good translations | 07:28 |
* Mikaela seems to be drowning under different tabs | 07:30 | |
amjjawad | Mikaela, my 4th try will be: if you wish to learn new stuff, join: http://wiki.linuxpadawan.net/AboutUs | 07:32 |
amjjawad | there are so many highly skilled and experienced people who are more than happy to take you under their wings Mikaela | 07:32 |
Mikaela | I will also die to too many channels | 07:33 |
Mikaela | 1 windows used (0 vertically / 0 horizontally split). 207 (of which 14 merged) buffers open: 1 core, 1 perl, 15 irc servers, 168 irc channels, 22 irc queries | 07:33 |
amjjawad | why would you join so many channels Mikaela if that is an overkill? | 07:33 |
Mikaela | linuxpadawan seems to have some negative way familiar names | 07:34 |
amjjawad | I usually on 4 channels only and I am not interested at the moment to join the 5th one :) | 07:34 |
amjjawad | negative way familiar names? Mikaela what do you mean? | 07:34 |
Mikaela | I am mostly interested in all channels or I have been asked to join some and never left or something | 07:35 |
Mikaela | bad experiences | 07:35 |
Mikaela | but I probably have those with everyone anyway | 07:35 |
amjjawad | Mikaela, are you saying some names here: http://wiki.linuxpadawan.net/AboutUs you know? | 07:36 |
Mikaela | too familiar bot too | 07:36 |
rww | I think this is perhaps a bit offtopic for "International Ubuntu IRC operators channel", folks :) | 07:36 |
Mikaela | oh, sorry | 07:36 |
Mikaela | amjjawad: would you like to PM or is there more suitable channel? | 07:36 |
amjjawad | for what? | 07:38 |
amjjawad | ohhh yes | 07:38 |
amjjawad | rww, so sorry | 07:38 |
amjjawad | I forgot that | 07:38 |
amjjawad | I thought I'm on one of the channels I'm on daily :) | 07:39 |
rww | no worries :) | 07:39 |
amjjawad | that is a proof that I'm not into IRC :P | 07:39 |
amjjawad | Mikaela, join #kibo please :) or #torios both are my channels | 07:39 |
