| [00:03] <Pici> PriceChild: What was that ban about? | |
| [00:04] <PriceChild> Pici, quit message | |
| [00:04] <Pici> PriceChild: simple woman? | |
| [00:04] <PriceChild> Pici, one of them | |
| [00:04] <Pici> Or the Intellegent American one | |
| [00:04] <PriceChild> that's another | |
| [00:04] <Pici> Rather, that one makes more sense... | |
| [00:04] <PriceChild> together with the french one | |
| [00:05] <PriceChild> the microsoft one.... meh not too bothered | |
| [00:05] <PriceChild> well, not as bothered | |
| [00:05] <nalioth> i actually think that was a compliment | |
| [00:05] <Pici> The woman one wasnt bad, the american one was. | |
| [00:06] * nalioth wasn't bothered at all | |
| [00:07] <Pici> I was only bothered because I misread the 'simple woman' one wrong at first. | |
| [00:07] <PriceChild> In light of current events I think its worth asking for change. | |
| [00:13] <nalioth> i think we've wasted far more brain cycles than it deserves | |
| [01:05] <no0tic> jpatrick, sorry for the inconvenience but I invited codicealpha in #ubuntu-it-ops... | |
| [01:30] <mannytu_> hi | |
| [01:31] <LjL> hello, how can we help you? | |
| [01:31] <mannytu_> i can not get to #ubuntu , it says I am ban? | |
| [01:32] <LjL> let me check | |
| [01:32] <mannytu_> ok | |
| [01:35] <LjL> mannytu_, you sent this message a couple of times as soon as you joined #ubuntu | |
| [01:35] <LjL> <mannytu> A music messaging session has been requested. Please click the MM icon to accept. | |
| [01:35] <LjL> can you explain that? | |
| [01:35] <mannytu_> this is the first time I log into irc today? | |
| [01:36] <LjL> maybe, but that was not today | |
| [01:36] <mannytu_> I did don't know who did that message; it was not me. | |
| [01:37] <LjL> well, it was from your computer, and using your very own nickname | |
| [01:38] <mannytu_> I did not do that. | |
| [01:38] <mannytu_> when did this happen? | |
| [01:38] <LjL> Feb 19 2008 23:02:43 | |
| [01:39] <LjL> UTC | |
| [01:40] <mannytu_> i do not know what to tell you; I did not do it | |
| [01:41] <mannytu_> if you see when I long on I mostly read what is happening and not chat much at all... | |
| [01:41] <LjL> mannytu_: may you have pasted that message into your client accidentally? | |
| [01:42] <mannytu_> I do not think so, do I need to change my name? | |
| [01:42] <LjL> no | |
| [01:43] <mannytu_> can someone use my name without my password? | |
| [01:43] <LjL> mannytu_: it just must have been some sort of accident, because it wasn't just your nickname, but your very computer's network address. i'll let you back into #ubuntu, but please make sure you don't accidentally paste lines into your client, because otherwise we'll just have to believe you're lying about it | |
| [01:44] <Hobbsee> mannytu_: are you running any xchat scripts? | |
| [01:45] <mannytu_> right now I am using xchat on my latop thru VMware maching with jars user | |
| [01:45] <mannytu_> I also have Ubuntu on my Dell | |
| [01:46] <mannytu_> I do not know how to run scrips | |
| [01:46] <mannytu_> I still new and learning the linux commands | |
| [01:48] <mannytu_> I am sure I did not paste anything, however, someone did | |
| [01:49] <LjL> someone using the cpe-70-123-175-137.hot.res.rr.com address, yes. | |
| [01:50] <mannytu_> whos address is that? | |
| [01:50] <LjL> mannytu_: please type /whois mannytu_ | |
| [01:51] <mannytu_> It did not come up? | |
| [01:52] <Hobbsee> [12:52] [Whois] mannytu_ is n=Manny@cpe-70-123-175-137.hot.res.rr.com (Larson) | |
| [01:53] <mannytu_> that is my last name; is this my address? | |
| [01:53] <LjL> yes | |
| [01:54] <mannytu_> can someone use my computer to send these messages? | |
| [01:54] <LjL> mannytu_: not unless your computer has been compromised | |
| [01:55] <LjL> mannytu_: is the "mannytu" who is currently online yourself? | |
| [01:55] <mannytu_> ok this is from my laptop; wil it be different on my Desktop? | |
| [01:56] <LjL> what will be different? | |
| [01:56] <mannytu_> the whois? | |
| [01:56] <LjL> mannytu_: you can check for yourself, /whois mannytu | |
| [01:57] <nalioth> they are the same | |
| [01:57] <mannytu_> I type the command but it did not show me? | |
| [01:57] <mannytu_> /whois mannytu | |
| [01:58] <LjL> mannytu_, it works just like it worked the other time with mannytu_ | |
| [01:59] <mannytu_> I type it term but I do not see it? | |
| [01:59] <LjL> ok | |
| [01:59] <LjL> [Whois] mannytu is n=manny@cpe-70-123-175-137.hot.res.rr.com (purple) | |
| [01:59] <LjL> mannytu_ is n=Manny@cpe-70-123-175-137.hot.res.rr.com (Larson) | |
| [01:59] <LjL> the latter is yourself. is the former yourself too? | |
| [02:00] <mannytu_> that should be my desktop on piggen | |
| [02:00] <LjL> mannytu_: could you have inadvertedly sent those messages from Pidgin? | |
| [02:01] <mannytu_> I do not real chat that much | |
| [02:01] <mannytu_> I read to see the problems that other have to learn | |
| [02:02] <LjL> mannytu_: look, either your computer was compromised, in which case you should worry, or you accidentally pasted stuff. i can't know. | |
| [02:03] <mannytu_> ok, sorry for taking too much of your time | |
| [02:05] <LjL> *deep breath* | |
| [02:07] * jdong pats LjL | |
| [02:08] <LjL> Hobbsee: you win. PM: [03:07:43] <mannytu> I know [03:08:00] <mannytu> I was messing with plug In | |

| [02:11] <LjL> but i'm not allergic to chocolate so i'll just throw the peanuts to mc44 | |
| [02:12] <mannytu> LjL: I know!!! I was messing with Plug in for Pidgin that day | |
| [02:12] <LjL> mannytu: yes, i replied to your private message | |
| [02:13] <mannytu> my wife was talking to me | |

| [02:57] <LjL> no, what about? | |
| [02:57] <stdin> [02:56]<kahrytan> What kitofhawaii said about me in Jan 28, 2008, was complete bullshit. it was all lies and slander. ref: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2008/01/28/%23ubuntu-ops.txt | |
| [02:58] * PriceChild headdesks | |
| [02:58] <LjL> stdin: and why would he tell you about that? | |
| [02:58] <stdin> LjL: nothing, just came out of the blue | |
| [02:58] <LjL> stdin, i suggest you tell him to stop bothering you with unsolicited PMs. | |
| [02:58] <stdin> I wasn't even active here, was working on some c++ code for the last few hours | |
| [02:59] <PriceChild> LjL, perhaps we suggest he PMs me? *ducks* | |
| [02:59] <Pici> He wasn't here either. | |
| [02:59] <LjL> PriceChild: no, but we could suggest he joins here. | |
| [02:59] <LjL> no PMs thank you. | |
| [02:59] <PriceChild> -irc don't you mean? ;) | |
| [03:00] <PriceChild> And I was being sarcy. | |
| [03:00] <jdong> 21:59 <+LjL> no PMs thank you. | |
| [03:00] * jdong giggles | |
| [03:00] <LjL> especially in the light of the fact that he asked for no PMs from us | |
| [03:00] <stdin> I haven't replied, and I don't plan to. don't want to even give them the chance for a dialogue | |
| [03:00] <LjL> PriceChild: -irc should do, yeah. | |
| [03:01] <stdin> although the'll probably read the logs for this conversation and pm me again in a few days, oh well | |
| [03:02] <LjL> stdin, so let him. he clearly requested that ops don't "harrass" him by PMing in. i don't see why, in this particular instance, you shouldn't respect his will. | |
| [03:27] <mneptok> why is he still allowed in #u-us-hi? | |
| [03:28] <mneptok> if ops are not allowed to speak to him, then he has no business in Ubuntu channels | |
| [03:46] <ubotu> In #ubuntu-offtopic, PriceChild said: !unforget anything | |
| [03:46] <PriceChild> hmm was sure there was something there | |
| [03:47] <PriceChild> ah he used a . | |

| [11:45] <Hobbsee> people, is it trolling if you're saying something accurate? | |
| [11:45] <Seeker`> Hobbsee: example? | |
| [11:46] <Hobbsee> [22:13] * Fujitsu checks how far read-only-launchpad has been deferred. | |
| [11:46] <Hobbsee> [22:14] <Hobbsee> Fujitsu: it doesn't matter how long it's been deferred currently. they'll just keep redeferring it by a month, as they wish. | |
| [11:46] <Hobbsee> [22:18] <soren> So... How's the trolling business these days? | |
| [11:53] <elkbuntu> Hobbsee, it's all in the tone in such a situation | |
| [11:54] <Hobbsee> yeah well | |
| [11:55] * Seeker` doesn'nt understand what is going on in that conversation, or how it is trolling | |
| [11:55] <Hobbsee> Seeker`: it's launchpad milestones, and features getting delayed | |
| [11:57] <Hobbsee> elkbuntu: so, uh, what's the polite form of saying that launchpad tends to postpone it's release dates, so one can not assume that a given feature will show up when the suggested date says? | |
| [11:57] <Hobbsee> :) | |
| [11:58] <Gary> just what you typed is clear enough | |
| [12:00] <Seeker`> "the release dates tend not to be accurate as features are usually delayed" | |

| [12:59] <jpatrick> oh, wait, I think nalioth does all the ubuntu cloaks | |
| [12:59] <Gary> he does | |
| [13:00] <Pici> He does because it requires a staffer and a IRC Council member to do it... which he is both. | |
| [13:01] <neversfelde> there is an IRC Council? | |
| [13:01] <Pici> !irccouncil | |

| [20:53] <LjL> not to do with the CC | |
| [20:53] <jpatrick> already discuss at pervious meeting | |
| [20:54] <anthony> Well, nothing changed since the last meeting. | |
| [20:54] <jpatrick> anthony: Canonical team are overworked appartently | |
| [20:54] <anthony> jpatrick: Yes, that's been their line since at least last October. | |
| [20:55] <jpatrick> not much we can do about it :) | |
| [20:55] <anthony> There's "overworked" and there's "just not paying attention to that anymore" | |
| [20:55] <jpatrick> They did my requests at rt.ubuntu.com | |
| [20:55] <anthony> They said they were hiring new people, and things would improve "within weeks" | |
| [20:57] <anthony> meh, whatever | |
| [20:57] * anthony hunkers down for posingaspopular and greg-g | |
| [20:58] <jpatrick> anthony: just poke them in #canonical-sysadmin when you need something :) | |
| [21:00] <anthony> jpatrick: I have. Many, many times. So has Madpilot. We've been filing tickets, sending e-mails, poking people on IRC, and still nothing. We've even had someone in #canonical-sysadmin promise action within 24 hours, on three separate occasions, and not come through. | |
| [21:01] <anthony> We've been working on getting a web site up ever since Ubuntu Canada was approved over a year ago. | |
| [21:01] <jpatrick> anthony: wow, odd... they've always helped me when I asked... | |
| [21:02] <anthony> jpatrick: Yeah, I don't know what the deal is... | |
| [21:03] <jpatrick> anthony: I find them have a thing with "security" all the time :) | |
| [21:03] <jpatrick> they*, but don't blame them, it's their machines | |
| [21:06] <anthony> jpatrick: right now the "security" excuse is being used to explain why we can't edit our Drupal theme, and are stuck with broken links that users keep complaining to me about because Canonical gave us a broken theme. | |
| [21:08] <jpatrick> anthony: surely you must have at least one ssh account on the machine.. | |
| [21:08] <anthony> jpatrick: No. No SSH nor FTP. | |
