| dpm | dholbach, in other news http://mixxxblog.blogspot.de/2015/12/announcing-mixxx-20.html | 10:16 |
| dholbach | woohoo | 10:28 |
| dholbach | I haven't tried it yet :) | 10:28 |
| dpm | me neither, but looking forward to put it to the test :) | 10:41 |
| dpm | it's really awesome to see such a strong open source project | 10:41 |
| dpm | and multiplatform! | 10:41 |
| dholbach | yeah :) | 10:49 |
| * dholbach relocates to the office, bbiab | 11:09 | |
| popey | marcoceppi, jcastro http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/1674/is-there-a-public-api-for-stackexchange - api.askubuntu.com doesn't resolve, any idea why? | 12:47 |
| jcastro | huh, no idea on that one | 13:34 |
| popey | hm | 13:37 |
| popey | nvm, i win | 13:39 |
| marcoceppi | popey: I think it's just api.stackexchange.com, yeah? | 14:02 |
| popey | yeah, figured it out, thanks | 14:02 |
| marcoceppi | oh bother, I answered that question | 14:02 |
| popey | you have to use api.stackexchange.com and pass site=askubuntu | 14:03 |
| popey | and it works | 14:03 |
| jcastro | oh, I guess it makes sense that they did that | 14:11 |
| davidcalle | Eek, the wiki is again under a spam attack: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecentChanges | 14:35 |
| * davidcalle blames jcastro | 14:36 | |
| czajkowski | davidcalle: maybe someone in IS to ping them ? | 14:37 |
| jcastro | I know how to get rid of the spam! | 14:37 |
| davidcalle | czajkowski: yes, just pinged them | 14:40 |
| davidcalle | jcastro: :) | 14:40 |
| pleia2 | typo in the page name of "Sposors" (missing an 'n'!) http://ubucon.org/en/events/ubucon-summit-us/sponsors/ | 16:25 |
| dholbach | mhall119: dpm: ^ | 16:27 |
| dholbach | all right my friends - have a great rest of your day - see you tomorrow! :) | 17:03 |
| mhall119 | pleia2: fixed already, after seeing someone comment about it :) | 17:05 |
| pleia2 | mhall119: thanks :) | 17:05 |
| pleia2 | love how I get the snarky comments instead of actual helpful ones | 17:05 |
| mhall119 | or, well, I fixed it but forgot to publish it, it's done now | 17:05 |
| pleia2 | :) | 17:05 |
| pleia2 | "What's a sposor" ...makes me figure out what they're referring to instead of actually telling me the obvious problem | 17:06 |
| mhall119 | the internet is a harsh mistress | 17:06 |
| pleia2 | shut it down! | 17:06 |
| mhall119 | popey: ^^ unplug the internets | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | btw, ubuntu-doc mailing list may be of interest, massive spam attack has the team considering shutting down the help.ubuntu.com/community doc wiki | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | IS helped us stop the spam by locking the whole thing down to a tiny group of editors for now | 17:07 |
| mhall119 | spam on the wiki or on the ML? | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | wiki | 17:07 |
| mhall119 | it's that SSO-protected? | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | it is | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | spammers created launchpad accounts | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | it was pretty epic | 17:07 |
| pleia2 | thousands of spam pages created over the holiday break | 17:08 |
| mhall119 | really? does that mean we have their email addresses? | 17:08 |
| pleia2 | would have to follow up with IS | 17:08 |
| pleia2 | didn't have public things us mortals could see | 17:08 |
| mhall119 | from now on, if anybody complains about signing up for SSO being too much to ask, I'll just tell them that if spambots can do it so can they | 17:08 |
| pleia2 | honestly that's the super frustrating part | 17:08 |
| pleia2 | normal users struggle with it all the time, but someone scripted a bot that figured it out | 17:09 |
| pleia2 | (I don't blame the users, it sucks) | 17:09 |
| mhall119 | we should just buy that code from them | 17:09 |
| pleia2 | lol | 17:09 |
| jcastro | wow I can't believe someone would sign up for a spam SSO account | 18:22 |
| jcastro | and it's not like moin has an API right? | 18:22 |
| jcastro | so like they're doing all that crap by hand? | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | dozens of spam accounts | 18:26 |
| pleia2 | it was clearly a script of some kind, launchpad accounts being created and new pages coming in every 2-5 minutes from dec 23 - jan 4 | 18:26 |
| pleia2 | can't see any evidence anymore since it's all be deleted and purged, but it was a massive mess :) | 18:28 |
| mhall119 | pleia2: http://insights.ubuntu.com/2015/10/16/origami-wily-werewolf-competition/ has the werewolf | 19:02 |
| pleia2 | coool, thanks | 19:03 |
| mhall119 | I can't find the unicorn ones | 19:05 |
| mhall119 | ah, wait, here it is: http://insights.ubuntu.com/wp-content/uploads/226b/042_CAN_dConstruct_instructions-1.pdf | 19:06 |
| pleia2 | did Abi have a xerus? it seemed to have a long tail | 19:07 |
| mhall119 | no, tht was the werewolf I think | 19:07 |
| pleia2 | ah ok | 19:08 |
| dpm | pleia2, mhall119, I know I should be excited about the convergence demo, orange box and all that at the ubuntu booth, but I'm rather quite looking forward to the origami animals there :) | 20:24 |
| pleia2 | I didn't pay attention to anything in the call after the oragami animals | 20:25 |
| dpm | lol | 20:25 |
