| [03:08] <jdong> eew that stuff is all saturated fat, it'll go to your waist and coronary arteries... ;-) | |
| [03:14] <tonyyarusso> BUT, you should eat it anyway, because it's made in my state, and thus helps the local economy. | |

| [03:52] <macogw> hey so there's this guy i used to date, and he came to #linuxchix (different server) yesterday and today and got himself "asked to leave" because of his attitude, abrasiveness, and sexism, and he came into #ubuntu-offtopic and #ubuntu as htmljunkie about 20 minutes ago asking everyone to flood #linuxchix and basically torment them because he thinks they're man-hating feminists. its more like they just hate his attitude. he just switched to osx5 (st | |
| [03:53] <jdong> breathe between your sentences macogw | |
| [03:53] <jdong> they're gettin cut off :) | |
| [03:53] <Hobbsee> macogw: osx5 (st | |
| [03:54] <macogw> Hobbsee: huh? | |
| [03:55] <jdong> macogw: your post was clipped at that point | |
| [03:55] <jdong> we are waiting suspensefully for the conclusion | |
| [03:55] <Hobbsee> i wish irssi had more sensible defaults, and so didn't cut off text. | |
| [03:55] <Hobbsee> konvi will just split the line, and keep sending on the next message | |
| [03:55] <macogw> oh | |
| [03:55] <macogw> he just switched to osx5 (still in #ubuntu-offtopic) after i told the channel what was really going on, but now he's PMing me | |
| [03:56] <macogw> non-stop and um just watch out for htmljunkie, osx5, or darkfate (the nick he used on #linuxchix to hide that he was the jerk from yesterday) | |
| [03:56] <macogw> i'm using irssi too... | |
| [03:56] <Hobbsee> macogw: i can tell. sucky clients :) | |

| [04:15] <macogw> hi elkbuntu | |
| [04:15] <macogw> did you see last night's "excitement" in #linuxchix? | |
| [04:15] <elkbuntu> macogw, no? | |
| [04:17] <macogw> elkbuntu: my ex came really close to getting himself kb'd for trolling...and now he's ranting to freenode channels to go attack the man-hating linuxchix | |
| [04:17] <macogw> see above | |
| [04:17] <macogw> you can see him in your #linuxchix backlog as darkfate | |
| [04:20] <elkbuntu> macogw, my linuxchix backlog must be incomplete, i dont see anything bad from him in that channel... | |
| [04:22] <macogw> oh you werent in there last night | |
| [04:22] <elkbuntu> i see him arguing about asprin, but that's all | |
| [04:24] <macogw> ok there was a mess with him PMing Aishiko and lisa as part of it....called saz and Aishiko a manhater last night | |
| [04:24] <macogw> one of the others may have their client still open from then | |
| [04:26] <macogw> wait is htmljunkie in your backlog? | |

| [13:41] <ubotu> I'll remember that, Hobbsee | |
| [13:41] <Pici> hm,.. I thought I added that one. | |
| [13:41] <DJones> I did a search on ubotu's web interface, couldn't see anything referencing awn or avant | |
| [13:43] <DJones> Thanks for that | |
| [13:47] <jdong> no, !awn is way too long (tm) | |
| [15:11] <HardDisk> good afternoon, I request an ubuntu cloak please. | |
| [15:12] <LjL> hello | |
| [15:12] <LjL> are you an ubuntu member? | |
| [15:12] <HardDisk> hi LjL, well I'm still not entirely sure what that means exactly. | |
| [15:12] <LjL> !member | |
| [15:12] <ubotu> Want to become an Ubuntu member? Look at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember | |
| [15:12] <HardDisk> I am part of the ubuntu-eg team. | |
| [15:13] <HardDisk> alrighty. | |
| [15:13] <LjL> HardDisk: if you don't know what it means, then you're not one ;) | |
| [15:13] <HardDisk> fair enough :) | |
| [15:13] <HardDisk> I'll check the site out and see if I qualify. | |
| [15:13] <HardDisk> good day. | |
| [15:22] <Pici> Lots of that lately. | |
| [15:24] <vorian> Pici: about membership? | |
| [15:24] <Pici> vorian: Yeah. | |
| [15:24] <jpatrick> vorian: interesting mail you sent me | |
| [15:24] <vorian> jpatrick: yes, i know | |

| [16:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici, Hi, my niece may be stopping in shortly to get her laptop setup to play DVD's I plan on checking in every now and then, but I need to go lay down for a bit. I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye out for her. Thanks | |
| [16:26] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: In which channel? | |
| [16:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Ubuntu | |
| [16:27] <Pici> As? | |
| [16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> No idea.... | |
| [16:28] <Pici> Well, I'll try to helpful then. | |
| [16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> She is a ditz.. | |
| [16:28] <Pici> uh oh. | |
| [16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks... | |
| [16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> I emailed her info on setting up medibuntu.. as she seems to have already nmessed that all up... | |
| [16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Appreciate it.. back in a few.. | |
| [16:29] <Pici> Sure | |

| [16:47] <tonyyarusso> May I suggest a proactive campaign to urge legitimate users to register properly with nickserv if they haven't already prior to the 24th? | |
| [16:50] <Pici> tonyyarusso: How do you suggest we do that? | |
| [16:50] <Pici> besides changing the topic? | |
| [16:51] <tonyyarusso> Pici: perhaps a topic, or perhaps a once-a-day /notice. Or just putting it in our quit messages, if any of us ever quit... :P | |
| [16:52] <LjL> don't like notice | |
| [16:52] <tonyyarusso> 'k | |
| [16:52] <tonyyarusso> just thinking out loud really | |
| [16:53] <LjL> you'd figure the daily +rR's due to attacks would convince those who're ready to be convinced, besides :) | |
| [16:53] <tonyyarusso> You'd _think_, yes! | |
| [16:53] <LjL> well, if those don't, i doubt a notice will do much better | |
| [16:53] <tonyyarusso> true | |
| [16:53] <LjL> those at least *show* you the hassles of not being registered | |
| [16:54] <tonyyarusso> Also, any other brainstorming for any ways to make release day smoother that we haven't thought of already should probably start being tossed around shortly here. | |
| [16:54] <Pici> Perhaps a list of factoids to modify | |
| [16:54] <LjL> i'm starting to be for an #ubuntu-install for the first couple of days, for install and upgrade questions | |
| [17:05] <ubotu> In #kubuntu, Nirkus said: ubotu: thanks. there is no usb stick image then, i guess? | |
| [17:06] <Pici> handled. | |
| [17:06] <tonyyarusso> hmm, that's not a bad idea LjL | |
| [17:10] <Mez> tonyyarusso, why prior to the 24th ? | |
| [17:11] <Mez> oh... release day :D hehe | |
| [17:11] <PriceChild> Mez: will attract nasties | |
| [17:11] <Mez> arent we going to do -release-party again ? | |
| [17:12] <LjL> think so | |
| [17:12] <LjL> but that won't stop #ubuntu from becoming unusable for a few day, as usual | |
| [17:13] <Mez> just set it +r and get Floodbot or similar to /msg users that arent ? | |
| [17:13] <LjL> hmmm | |
| [17:13] <Mez> or force unregistered to join a new channel during the release? (or even just -unregged | |
| [17:14] <LjL> not sure that'd be good | |
| [17:14] <tonyyarusso> That's a bit heavy-handed, and unfortunately, I think it would confuse too many people. | |
| [17:15] <tonyyarusso> I'd _like_ it to work, but know too much about users. :P | |
| [17:15] <tonyyarusso> -release-party should still happen though, yes. | |
| [17:56] <LjL> !eeepc is <reply> Information about installing Ubuntu on an Asus EeePC can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC | |
| [17:56] <ubotu> I'll remember that, LjL | |
| [18:00] <Seeker`> all this planning would be easy if it wasn't for those pesky users | |
| [18:01] <PriceChild> Seeker`: I think that makes the solution obvious then. | |
| [18:02] <PriceChild> Seeker`: we go to the route of the problem and eliminate it there rather than working around | |
| [18:02] <Seeker`> +b *!*@*? | |
| [18:05] <LjL> someone's saying in #ubuntu that http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download defaults to the 64 bit version for them, any idea...? (doesn't for me) | |
| [18:06] <Seeker`> Defaults to x86 for me | |
| [18:06] <PriceChild> fine for me... tell them to make sure they've clicked the right one, or try a different mirror | |
| [18:07] <LjL> but the *checkbox* in the download page seems to default to 64bit for him | |
| [18:07] <Pici> What checkbox? | |
| [18:08] <PriceChild> LjL: well then he can check the other one? | |
| [18:08] <LjL> the ones on that page? | |
| [18:08] <Pici> I only see one for the alternate disc | |
| [18:08] <LjL> PriceChild: yes but he's just asking why on earth the site would default to 64 bit. and i agree: why on earth would it? | |
| [18:08] <LjL> Pici, under "What type of computer do you have?" | |
| [18:08] <PriceChild> file a bug? what browser? | |
| [18:09] <Pici> LjL: Those are radio buttons/selectors. | |
| [18:09] <LjL> meh | |
| [18:09] <LjL> whatever | |
| [18:09] <Pici> I'm guessing its some sort of residual form completion bug in his browser. | |

| [18:53] <sarah____> hi Pici | |
| [18:53] <sarah____> can you test me for the bug? | |
| [18:54] <LjL> vulnerable | |
| [18:54] <LjL> and has to be unbanned manually because i banned sarah_* | |

| [22:16] <ompaul> its a DBO | |
| [22:17] <ompaul> hiya | |
| [22:17] <DBO> heya ompaul =) | |
| [22:17] <DBO> i was about to do my weekly whining about nvidia packages being bad =) | |
| [22:18] <ompaul> DBO, don't bother it is a well known fact | |
| [22:20] <DBO> yeah, i know | |
| [22:20] <DBO> but bothering Amaranth is something of a pass-time for me | |
| [22:20] <DBO> plus there are now people who seem to have solved it, so I am going to try a solution, brb | |
| [22:30] <nalioth> it's not a DBO | |
| [22:30] * nalioth notes that that DBO was unidentified | |
| [22:31] <Seeker`> nalioth: That doesn't mean that it wasn't a DBO | |
| [22:31] <ompaul> well there were clues | |
| [22:31] <ompaul> but it was not an authed dbo this is true | |
