[00:37] <sarnold> Thu 20 00:35:05 -!- sysadmin [~McCafe@23.108.51.26] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
[00:39] <Unit193> Ban.
[01:12] <hggdh> not op-capable on -k
[01:14] <hggdh> banned via IRCC
[09:03] <Flannel> So.... this whole Libera thing.  Did they register nicks from freenode? Or has someone already tried to take my nick over there?
[09:15] <Flannel> And who might I talk to to try and resolve that?  I realize it's first-come-first-serve, but this is kinda ridiculous
[09:16] <Unit193> Hi.
[09:17] <Flannel> Hi
[09:18] <Unit193> Err, actually I'm sorry I shouldn't offer help right now, I should be trying to sleep.
[09:18] <Flannel> No worries.  I just hope to figure this out before it gets worse
[09:21] <Unit193> Yah poking now, I can't finish this one though.  Reg your alt, then later set accountname?
[09:23] <Flannel> The alt is also registered (and according to nickserv, linked?)
[09:23] <Flannel> Like I joined my alt and it said "this nick is owned by Flannel"
[09:24] <Flannel> Which makes me wonder if it's someone trying to be malicious
[10:13] <Flannel> Got it sorted.  Thanks all!
[13:46] <DJones> Hmmh, My nicks are already registered on libera
[13:47] <DJones> I suspect most nicks will be registered, so anybody with ops will need new nicks
[15:03] <teward> how fun i already registered my own nick there xD  nobody can steal that from me :P
[15:22] <el> DJones: check with libera staff, there was some automated registrations yesterday by bots that might nto be valid, from scraped freenode nicklists
[15:23] <el> some people have already been able to get nicks back i heard
[15:42] <DJones> el: Any idea who are server ops? I've joined #libera but not sure if thats the right channel to ask about nicks etc, I can see a user there with ops called edk and a hostname as staff, but just wondered if there was any single point of contact that should be used
[15:43] <el> it's the right channel
[15:44] <DJones> Cheers,I'll ask there
[17:11] <DJones> el: Thanks for the suggestion, that worked & sorted
[20:04] <Flannel> DJones: Did you get an email to confirm your registration yet?  I'm still waiting
[20:05] <hggdh> Flannel: I was getting just failures to email; I kept trying and suddenly I was registered -- but still did not get any email
[20:07] <Flannel> hggdh: Ah, ok.  Yeah, I'm registered but not verified, as I haven't gotten any email.  I figured I'd give it 12 hours then poke someone to ask what I should do.  If it's "just wait", that's fine, as long as that's the recommended course.  Hah
[20:09] <sarnold> if you're on gmail check your inbox
[20:09] <sarnold> gmail recently rolled out some 'dynamic inbox' kind of nonsense that hides this kind of email
[20:10] <Flannel> Nah, I wouldn't touch gmail with any real accounts.  I do have a gmail for junk, but I turn off all of that "we're smarter than you" crap as soon as they introduce it.
[20:11] <Flannel> As far as I know, there's no spam filtering on this account either. But I'm not 100% sure what goes on at the ISP level.
[20:12] <hggdh> Flannel: I do not really know what happened. But you can try /msg nickserv info <account>
[20:15] <Flannel> hggdh: To do what?
[20:27] <hggdh> Flannel: verify if the registration "took"
[20:28] <Flannel> hggdh: Oh, I am registered. Just "Flannel has NOT COMPLETED registration verification."
[20:28] <Flannel> which is the email side of things
[20:28] <lhavelund> Flannel: Another person I've been speaking to is stuck in the same limbo.
[20:29] <Flannel> Yeah.  I've heard that.  That's why I'm not stressing out too much... yet.
[20:30] <lhavelund> I'm sure it'll all be fine.
