ryu0Anyone able to access launchpad right now?09:59
LGeehello, I have trouble accessing https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpdk - I have an Uh oh! error page, can anyone confirm if it's not just for me?10:04
LGeeThanks10:04
cjwatsonit's up for me from multiple locations10:05
LGeeOK, thanks, I figured it has something to do with firefox.10:06
cpaelzerLGee: and depending what you looked for there you might want to instead go to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server/dpdk/+git/dpdk/ or https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/admin/projects/deb_dpdk,branches10:07
LGeecpaelzer: thanks, I have found that (I needed the files used for packaging)10:16
cjwatson(seems like we had a brief timeout spike, but it's passed now)10:17
LGeeBy the way, it came back so it was indeed the site10:17
LGeeyes\10:17

McIf I'm not mistaken, this is on of the worst days ever for spam in launchpad, right now sending a spam every three seconds for inkscape alone, 5k spams in the last 24h21:53
wxldefine spam, Mc21:54
Mc[Question #503909]: #ALASKA#मुर्गी बर्गर #Kellyanne Conway #Ash Wednesday >>> quickbooks support phone number 1800 436 0259!!!!<<<<<>>>>>     Donalt @@@ DADA  #Wednesday21:54
wxlahh in questions ok21:54
Mcyes21:55
Mca few spams slipped in bugs section too21:55
wxlwow yep21:55
wxllooks like some of those folks have had their lp accounts disabled21:55
wxldid you talk to #canonical-sysadmin to make that happen by chance?21:56
Mc?21:56
wxlthat's a no. :)21:56
wxlMc: wgrant's working on it. he actually has been. O_O22:10
Mcthanks for forwarding :)22:11
wxlnp, np22:11
wxlthis *IS* the right place to ask about those sorts of things. #canonical-sysadmin might be better if well, it totally disappears off the internet :)22:12
Mcwould it be possible, at least as a temporary solution, to put a Recaptcha on launchpad answers ?22:12
wxli'll let wgrant answer that question but my presumption is that's not without difficulty22:13
wgrantMc: As hard as it might be to believe, you're not even seeing most of the spam :/ It's not possible to add a recaptcha to Answers in any reasonable timeframe, but there *is* a recaptcha on account registration and that doesn't stop them.22:13
wxlmy experience in the past is that these spammers are not pure bots22:14
wgrantNo, they're definitely human.22:14
wgrantAnd they're attacking tonnes of other sites as well, most of them just don't offer direct email subscriptions.22:15
wgrantI've tweaked some things so it should be better now, but we'll see.22:15
McJust tried to create an account, there is no captcha22:16
Mcah, sorry22:17
Mcit's sent by email22:17
wgrantThere is at verification time.22:17
wgrantYou can't log into LP until you've verified your email address22:17
wgrantYep22:17
cjwatsonYeah, I've been testing SSO changes today and can very definitely affirm that there is a recaptcha in there, having had to solve the damn thing multiple times22:18
wgrantThese guys have no problem with captchas anywhere on the Internet, unfortunately. They have lots of manpower to burn.22:18
wgrantAnyway, things should be much better as of about half an hour ago.22:19
wgrantI'm keeping an eye on things.22:19
Mcstill 1spam/2sec22:19
wgrantOh, possibly an email queue.22:20
wgrantWhat's the latest number you've received?22:20
Mc50415022:20
Mc50415522:20
wgrantAh, yeah, you're hours behind. Let me see if I can clean that up.22:20
wgrant(also you could just unsubscribe from emails :))22:21
Mcit's weird having the captcha in the email; when i'm forwarding it to myself without solving the captcha and viewing it in text mode, i have the impression that i can skip it22:30
wgrantThe captcha's node in the email, it's in the page linked from the email.22:31
wgrants/node/not/22:31
Mcok, so i definitely have no captcha on thunderbird, trying with an adress not in a webstuff22:34
