[05:14] good morning to all [05:52] DJones: seems like he was short minded.. [06:23] !ping [06:23] pong! [06:46] morning lotuspsychje [06:46] o/ [06:47] work guys [06:53] good morning all [06:57] lol [06:57] guy came in just to rant [06:58] he's right though, about the channel being dead [06:58] i don't think that's accurate [06:58] it's appauling really, spammers spam the channel, it's +r goes from 1900users to 1000 [06:59] oh [06:59] that is low [06:59] they basically won [06:59] how so [06:59] no i mean low number [07:00] 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 anymore [07:00] will +r go away though [07:01] it's been on for couple months i guess [07:01] not that long, maybe a month [07:01] nah i think 2 at least [07:02] 92086 lines in #ubuntu August 2017 [07:02] i think it's just lazy, like killing the sheep cause of a bad wolf [07:02] 232196 lines in August 2016 [07:02] :( [07:02] or lets put the sheep in a concrete building and call it a day [07:06] !ping [07:06] pong! [07:08] came 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 and [07:08] learnt 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. [07:09] to clarify im not begging to stay [07:09] just stating facts [07:09] !ping [07:09] pong! [07:10] ive read a ton about spam but havent seen any at all? do you guys mean elsewhere or here [07:12] also registered users is helpful because it ensures you're talking to same person [07:13] you obviously weren't here when it happened, mid-august was a huge flood of it [07:16] makes sense haha i come back on to a ton of warnings and no visible spam [07:16] was it a paticular vuln with link spamming or people just decided it was a great place to advertise all of a sudden? [07:17] cp links [07:17] m4dh4tt4: was a rant dude [07:17] Ben64, i do apologize for barking back [07:17] if you have a problem with ops theres #ubuntu-ops [07:19] im 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 say [07:19] but it's not the right forum for that [07:19] as in like, right now [07:19] ? [07:19] it's like going to the cashier at a grocery store and yelling at them about what the manager did [07:19] they just work there man [07:19] they aren't involved with the operations [07:20] its 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] its ok though i get it [07:20] youre more into the rules than you are dialogue eh [07:21] or resolution [07:21] well i'm not an op [07:21] wait wait [07:21] as a guy who hangs out in #ubuntu, it's weird to see someone come in and start complaining about something that happened months? ago [07:22] so 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] oh so you just like being mad at people [07:22] i 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? [07:23] i made no such accusations [07:23] different guy, man, check your logs [07:23] and 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 ego [07:24] damn [07:24] i yam le fool [07:24] my bad [07:25] i just assumed that since you read the dialogue and tried to belittle the rant that you were same dude [07:27] reading through the scrollback it seems you overreacted [07:27] ya i did, apologized [07:28] i mean in #ubuntu [07:28] yep [07:28] cant apologize there, begged for a ban lolol [07:28] well, i'm confused [07:29] back to my graph making... [07:32] https://i.imgur.com/JbW3Ntz.png [07:32] there we go, freshly graphed graph [07:33] number of lines in #ubuntu by month [07:34] interesting [07:35] yeah i thought so [07:35] !ping [07:35] pong! [07:35] should remove that +r i guess [07:35] but freenode needs to be better at killing spam [07:36] or that spammer just needs to die [07:38] the spam flood that triggered the +r seems to have happened around aug 17th, but the numbers have been dropping all year according to this [07:38] ducasse: nah it's been semi steady, around 2017 may it went down greatly [07:39] 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 june [07:39] yeah it went really sharp down recently according to that [07:39] also, i have 5.6GB of irc logs [07:39] but there is a sort of deflection point the start seems odd [07:40] around 4th 5th month of 2017 [07:40] i filtered out the joins and parts and stuff [07:40] it's also possible that my computer didn't log everything [07:42] !irclogs [07:42] Official 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] hmm [07:44] yup it's way lower [07:46] wget -q -O- https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/09/06/%23ubuntu.txt | wc -l gives me 974 [07:46] same for 2016 gives 2140 [07:48] i get 2090 / 894 [07:48] pretty close to the official record === JanC is now known as Guest52516 === JanC_ is now known as JanC === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon [19:24] i get the feeling this guy is trying to hide something... [19:26] ducasse: I trust your "feeling" :) [19:26] maybe he mucked up his grub wih one of those fix your grub apps that break your system [19:27] I fell into that trap back in the day [19:28] /dev/sda0 ? [19:28] when asked for reliable info: "maybe i'll just sleep now and fix this tomorrow" - then he's gone [19:29] yup [19:30] grub 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... [19:53] Nap time for me ! Back - later :P
