| k1l | dear developers, please make software that doesnt need security or bugfix updates. just perfect code. | 20:04 |
| Unit193 | Oh, sorry. Never thought of that! | 20:05 |
| elky | to which user do we owe the nobel prize for being very smart? | 20:18 |
| elky | i suspect a lot of them, this seems to be a common bright idea | 20:19 |
| daftykins | Pici: good to see that you consider going for the ban straight away on users who have helped for years, rather than perhaps have a conversation... | 20:39 |
| daftykins | now then, the other day i was told to await a PM but instead a second op decides to ban anyway - i must say that due process is somewhat lacking in you folks of late | 20:39 |
| daftykins | it's also utter rubbish for some unknown user to claim my help is 'rarely helpful' given i solve tonnes of problems per month... there are those users who are simply butthurt and hold a grudge on this network | 20:42 |
| Pici | daftykins: I didn't ban you. | 20:45 |
| Pici | I see a note escalating this issue to the IRC Council, but I have not yet seen anything on that front. | 20:47 |
| daftykins | Pici: i know you didn't *this* time, but to consider it without even saying a word is poor. | 20:49 |
| daftykins | the python thing was actually a genuine mistake, i didn't know it'd trash a system | 20:49 |
| daftykins | in fairness though that specific user had far bigger problems than that | 20:50 |
| daftykins | no i'm sure the wheels will not turn very quickly there - as am i sure that the full details won't be shared either | 20:50 |
| daftykins | well, well done folks you'll get what you've wanted for so long i'm sure. Shame about all those unanswered queries that'll come | 20:51 |
| Pici | daftykins: I believe that you were offline by the time that I wanted to speak to you about it... but honestly I've been rather distracted from Ubuntu stuff recently. And yes, that user had much larger issues than that, I had just expected better from you. | 20:54 |
| daftykins | than to not know that python is important? agreed, but then i'd only class myself as intermediate at best. | 20:55 |
| Pici | And that really shouldn't have had much to do with this ban. I didn't make an official note of it at the time. | 20:56 |
| Pici | Anyway, I have a ridiculous headache right now, so I'm going to go home and get some rest. If you want to send something to the IRCC, please do so via irc-council@lists.ubuntu.com or I'll take it up with another operator later so that we can get the appeals process started. | 20:58 |
| daftykins | feel better! | 20:59 |
| daftykins | i have to admit i don't understand policy to get whether the above suggestion is really necessary... | 21:21 |
| hggdh | daftykins: yes it is necessary. | 21:55 |
| daftykins | how-so? | 21:55 |
| hggdh | daftykins: as far as I can see from logs you have beed asked many times to be more civil. Your ban has been sent to the IRCC, and you have to talk with them. | 21:58 |
| hggdh | s/beed/been/ | 21:58 |
| daftykins | and this email is the only method? which is publically visible? | 22:00 |
| hggdh | the email to irc-council@u.c is only visible to the IRCC members | 22:10 |
| daftykins | ok, thanks. haven't seen you before... | 22:16 |
| hggdh | indeed. I tend to lurk. | 22:20 |
| hggdh | daftykins: now, meanwhile, please /part this channel | 22:20 |
| daftykins | yes i understand policy... still pretty vague on this whole drama though | 22:21 |
| daftykins | i'd definitely welcome an actual explanation | 22:21 |
| k1l | !optimus | 22:30 |
| ubottu | The Bumblebee Project aims to support NVIDIA Optimus technology under Linux. The Bumblebee website can be found at http://bumblebee-project.org/ | 22:30 |
| k1l | that is deprecated on ubuntu since we use nvidia-prime | 22:31 |
| popey | @login | 22:43 |
| ubottu | The operation succeeded. | 22:43 |
| popey | @btlogin | 22:43 |
| k1l | !no optimus is <reply> Ubuntu uses nvidia-prime to support optimus videocards. | 22:51 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that k1l | 22:51 |
| valorie | !nvidia | 22:53 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 22:53 |
| valorie | !nvidia-prime | 22:53 |
| valorie | ah | 22:53 |
| valorie | it would be nice to have a factoid for nvidia-prime perhaps | 22:53 |
| valorie | since prime isn't mentioned on the VideoDriverHowto | 22:54 |
| valorie | nor is optimus | 22:55 |
| valorie | this page is a bit out-of-date: http://askubuntu.com/questions/661922/how-am-i-supposed-to-use-nvidia-prime but I don't see a better one | 22:57 |
