Ben64lol06:57
Ben64guy came in just to rant06:57
EriC^^he's right though, about the channel being dead06:58
Ben64i don't think that's accurate06:58
EriC^^it's appauling really, spammers spam the channel, it's +r goes from 1900users to 100006:58
Ben64oh06:59
Ben64that is low06:59
EriC^^they basically won06:59
EriC^^how so06:59
Ben64no i mean low number06:59
EriC^^the channel is +r nobody knew to linux is going to try registering and whatnot, you know how people would join and be like "what is this?" not anymore07:00
Ben64will +r go away though07:00
EriC^^it's been on for couple months i guess07:01
ducassenot that long, maybe a month07:01
EriC^^nah i think 2 at least07:01

EriC^^!ping07:06
ubot5pong!07:06
m4dh4tt4came in to rant? i came in, asked a Q and spent 10 mins trying to help someone. You then assumed that a JPG i recovered was acquired illegally, ignored both questions on the table and then went afk. Last time i was here I spent like 30 hrs helping peeps and got nothing but greif. Your channels will die if you cant figure out whos being helpful and who needs your canned messages because its disturbing or intruding. I liked being here and07:08
m4dh4tt4learnt a ton helping people but just know that pretending this place is full of juveniles is a little overboard especially at 2:00am and youre gunning for the only guy assisting others.07:08
m4dh4tt4to clarify im not begging to stay07:09
m4dh4tt4just stating facts07:09
EriC^!ping07:09
ubot5pong!07:09
m4dh4tt4ive read a ton about spam but havent seen any at all? do you guys mean elsewhere or here07:10
m4dh4tt4also registered users is helpful because it ensures you're talking to same person07:12
ducasseyou obviously weren't here when it happened, mid-august was a huge flood of it07:13
m4dh4tt4makes sense haha i come back on to a ton of warnings and no visible spam07:16
m4dh4tt4was it a paticular vuln with link spamming or people just decided it was a great place to advertise all of a sudden?07:16
ducassecp links07:17
Ben64m4dh4tt4: was a rant dude07:17
m4dh4tt4Ben64, i do apologize for barking back07:17
Ben64if you have a problem with ops theres #ubuntu-ops07:17
m4dh4tt4im merely suggesting a little more lenency/positive encouragement to those with good intentions, do as you wish , its your show, i dont need to #ubuntu-ops ive said what i have to say07:19
Ben64but it's not the right forum for that07:19
m4dh4tt4as in like, right now07:19
m4dh4tt4?07:19
Ben64it's like going to the cashier at a grocery store and yelling at them about what the manager did07:19
Ben64they just work there man07:19
Ben64they aren't involved with the operations07:19
m4dh4tt4its like going to a grocery store, all cashes are open, but the guy on isle 9(you) says go to cash 1 cuz you only have 3 items and thats express,07:20
m4dh4tt4its ok though i get it07:20
m4dh4tt4youre more into the rules than you are dialogue eh07:20
m4dh4tt4or resolution07:21
Ben64well i'm not an op07:21
m4dh4tt4wait wait07:21
Ben64as a guy who hangs out in #ubuntu, it's weird to see someone come in and start complaining about something that happened months? ago07:21
m4dh4tt4so ure not an op here and youre still telling me im off topic when theres ZERO other conversation being interrupted, ZERO people asking for help and its purpose is to improve channel relations?07:22
Ben64oh so you just like being mad at people07:22
m4dh4tt4i LEFT for 2 months and came back, was HELPING and within 3 mins youre making wild accusations/assumptions that my data recovery process on someones computer whom you dont know was illegal?07:22
Ben64i made no such accusations07:23
ducassedifferent guy, man, check your logs07:23
m4dh4tt4and no, i dont like being mad, thats why i asked you to ban me cuz theres no sense in being in a channel with a person who negates the CORE PURPOSE to boost his ego07:23
m4dh4tt4damn07:24
m4dh4tt4i yam le fool07:24
m4dh4tt4my bad07:24
m4dh4tt4i just assumed that since you read the dialogue and tried to belittle the rant that you were same dude07:25
Ben64reading through the scrollback it seems you overreacted07:27
m4dh4tt4ya i did, apologized07:27
Ben64i mean in #ubuntu07:28
m4dh4tt4yep07:28
m4dh4tt4cant apologize there, begged for a ban lolol07:28
Ben64well, i'm confused07:28
Ben64back to my graph making...07:29
Ben64https://i.imgur.com/JbW3Ntz.png07:32
Ben64there we go, freshly graphed graph07:32
Ben64number of lines in #ubuntu by month07:33
ducasseinteresting07:34
Ben64yeah i thought so07:35
EriC^!ping07:35
ubot5pong!07:35
Ben64should remove that +r i guess07:35
Ben64but freenode needs to be better at killing spam07:35
Ben64or that spammer just needs to die07:36
ducassethe spam flood that triggered the +r seems to have happened around aug 17th, but the numbers have been dropping all year according to this07:38
EriC^ducasse: nah it's been semi steady, around 2017 may it went down greatly07:38
EriC^that's around the time of the +r , i remember the +r started when my dad was here for a visit, he came in early june07:39
Ben64yeah it went really sharp down recently according to that07:39
Ben64also, i have 5.6GB of irc logs07:39
EriC^but there is a sort of deflection point the start seems odd07:39
EriC^around 4th 5th month of 201707:40
Ben64i filtered out the joins and parts and stuff07:40
Ben64it's also possible that my computer didn't log everything07:40
EriC^!irclogs07:42
ubot5Official channel logs can be found at https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. Meetingology logs at https://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/07:42
Ben64hmm07:42
EriC^yup it's way lower07:44
EriC^wget -q -O- https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/09/06/%23ubuntu.txt | wc -l gives me 97407:46
EriC^same for 2016 gives 214007:46

ducassei get the feeling this guy is trying to hide something...19:24
Bashing-omducasse: I trust your "feeling" :)19:26
BluesKajmaybe he mucked up his grub wih one of those fix your grub apps that break your system19:26
BluesKajI fell into that trap back in the day19:27
BluesKaj /dev/sda0 ?19:28
ducassewhen asked for reliable info: "maybe i'll just sleep now and fix this tomorrow" - then he's gone19:28
BluesKajyup19:29
ducassegrub seemed ok enough, it booted the kernel. i'm thinking his root fs had problems. impossible to say with no other info than "it's failed", though...19:30
Bashing-omNap time for me ! Back - later :P19:53
