[00:00] all I can say is that although I do agree with him on most of the issues, I know that I cannot be taken as the "mean value" of all the women in FLOSS and can understand why he was shunned (even if I don't follow LinuxChix ML's anymore) [00:06] claiming that ubuntu is doomed is a bit OTT though [00:07] it is [00:08] we cant do anything about the mailing lists [00:12] nope [00:12] /me shakes her head [00:13] the irc council could get involved int he fact that he was asked to leave -women [00:13] but thats about it [00:14] hmm?

[09:35] which is appriciated as fleebailey33 get's the situation now [09:35] sounds cool [09:35] from what I'm reading [09:35] yeah [09:35] well peace [09:35] im off [09:36] better explained in here then in #ubuntu [09:36] agreed [09:49] * elkbuntu hits 'publish' and waits for the proverbial to hit the fan. [09:50] elkbuntu: how do we go about suggesting things to the IRCC? [09:52] gnomefreak, writing to the irc list, ccing to the council list (irc-council@lists.ubuntu.com) [09:52] or viceversa with the to and cc [09:52] so its apublic list? [09:54] publicly postable, but not publicly archived [09:55] elkbuntu: thanks i will ponder some more on the topic before i write it up [09:55] feel free to use any council member as a bouncing board [09:58] is there a date for the next council meeting? [09:58] or are they as needed? [09:59] they're 'as we can agree on a time that every part of the world can get to [09:59] since we have to cover au, eu and uk now. [09:59] errr. [09:59] au, eu and us [10:00] finding a time suitible for all those areas is hell. [10:02] * Hobbsee wonders what's happened now [10:05] nothing really [10:06] aww [10:06] ok ikonia you have ops around now. im gonna try to get some sleep as its 5am [10:31] In #ubuntu-uk, Moniker42 said: !gary is "Gary is as Gary does, four fingers and a thumb!"

[11:28] Jad gives a strange blog post. [11:28] PriceChild, jad? [11:29] planet [11:30] ... strange indeed [11:30] elkbuntu: let us welcome HIM [11:30] hehehe [11:31] nah, im still waiting for microsoft employees to read my post [11:31] awww saturday, no comics :( [11:31] Right, I'm off to do some more mowing, don't press the red button. [11:32] aww! [11:32] but it's so shiny... and red... and buttony [11:40] FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [11:40] FloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit) [11:41] thanks tomaw [11:41] np [11:42] was off reading that planet blog post-->should have kicked waaaah right off the bat my bad [11:48] bazhang_, remember: we are not psychic. [11:48] remember v2: we are not psychologists. [11:48] elkbuntu, turn away from the channel for just one minute... [11:49] bazhang_, yeah, we're not quite omnipresent either [11:49] elkbuntu, too true :) [12:03] bazhang_, wanna take a look at siccness_? [12:03] * elkbuntu mutters about gentoo trolls [12:04] loco problem. problem is everyone seems to like his company. he's doing this to irritate me because i had him banned in -au-chat for excessive swearing [12:04] heh [12:05] i unbanned him and he went into a monologue-on-crac [12:05] +l [12:05] err. +k [12:06] mute? or just kick [12:06] mute is all i did in -au-chat [12:06] he'll give up and leave there, he's only trolling to peeve me [12:07] he is on mute now [12:07] yep [12:07] and playing 'why, i was only helping' cards in -au-chat [12:08] same in my PM [12:08] with or without swearing? [12:09] so far without; though talking about 'downing 30 brews' [12:09] sicc. what fun. [12:10] Hobbsee, yeah. he's gone nuts. he met a few of us at LCA, and has decided we're all 'Utter Gimps' [12:13] http://pastebin.ca/1041167 [12:21] fun [12:22] more of the same now [12:22] 'guaranteed to reduce channel to 900 users' in a week [12:24] im trying to not bite too much, since this is specifically aimed at me [12:34] Has anyone got anything against removing the bans on emma in a few more channels? I was thinking almost all the bans now? I don't think we've heard much from her lately, nevermind bad? (elkbuntu Hobbsee nalioth LjL) [12:35] sure, but she's still on probation. if we find out she's going against anything in the guidelines she's out again. moreso if it's something we've explicitly told her to cease. [12:36] irc list is public archived [12:36] would you ;grrr uside down b came off again [12:36] unless that was council [12:37] 'p' yay fixed [12:37] PriceChild, i had a problem with the x key at my old work [12:38] I bet you have a few tales about that :) [12:38] Would you prefer the one in -offtopic remained another week or so? [12:38] yes. [12:39] im not ready for her to go crazy there yet. [12:43] Can I convince somebody to mangle my cloak? [12:44] bazhang_, still around? [12:45] wgrant: changing it to current nick? [12:46] PriceChild: Yes please. [12:46] bazhang_, if you are, and siccness shut up eventually, unmute him and we'll see if he goes off again. if so, ban and remove. [12:46] wgrant: done [12:46] How long is it since he's been an Ubuntu user? [12:46] PriceChild: Danke. [12:47] wgrant, im not sure he ever actually was an ubuntu user [12:47] elkbuntu, done [12:47] elkbuntu: I thought he was in the distant past, but perhaps not. [12:48] wgrant, only because i started -au-chat where he could talk footy cars and beer without obstructing general operation of -au [12:48] Right. He's always been nice and loud. [12:49] then he met a few of us at LCA and decided we're all loser, then i got too busy to keep him in line and he took to using the f-word and the phrase 'sex on $thing' too much [12:49] Ah, lovely. [12:49] will be away for a bit [12:56] elkbuntu, to quote Myrtti your slip is showing [12:57] eh? [12:57] +o somwhere [12:58] right. im too busy to pick up all these new codewords [12:58] elkbuntu, hehe [12:59] PriceChild: my usual response still applies. she who cannot be named still argues and says she's not arguing, says she always follows instructions, when she doesn't, etc. [13:00] She does seem to be doing better - at least most of the time [13:00] Hobbsee, which should make her reprieve short then. [13:00] supposedly [13:00] but, me not being in those channels doesn't give me so much of a say anymore. [13:01] that was your choice. [13:01] and i'm sure the trolls will be happy to note that they can get back in, just by waiting. [13:01] Hobbsee, AND they know if they do it again they will be removed [13:01] it's always been that way [13:01] yes, i know - wasn't saying that as a bad thing, just saying that it happens. [13:01] Hobbsee, this is well known [13:02] ompaul: ie, they can continue their behaviour, but less so than usual, and be let in [13:02] Hobbsee, the threshold does lower over time [13:02] this has been seen [13:02] Hobbsee, the main fact is we all suffer from the human condition [13:03] Hobbsee, if she's still doing it, and we find out, she will be held accountable. there is no two ways about this. [13:04] elkbuntu: i hope so. [13:04] elkbuntu: i really hope so. [13:08] someone's awake [14:11] good luck jrib [14:14] jrib, having a good talk? [14:14] splendid [14:15] he keeping his mouth clean? [14:15] (incase you dont know, this is the ubuntu-au-chat resident troll you're talking to) [14:15] yes [14:16] he decided to help #ubuntu today because i unmuted him on the vow of ceasing swearing, then informed him that his flooding about TSM was more traffic than #ubuntu had, so he decided to try fix tha. [14:17] But TSM is so good! Hasn't he drilled it into your skull yet? [14:18] mind you his version of 'help' is to inform people how sucky things are, or tell them to work around problems by either buying new stuff or using 'an alternative'. [14:18] he's apparantly solved everyone's problems, or so we've been informed [14:18] He's a legend. [14:18] without a doubt [14:19] it's like if we sat in ##windows and informed every windows user to install linux and everything would be fixed. [14:19] and that's *all* we said [14:21] Sounds good. Let's head over there now. [14:34] wgrant, but think about it you would see people who still believed that what happened inside a computer was "magic" in fact I would go further and say "proprietary magic and should not be messed with except by wizards" and that really does hurt [14:35] ompaul: Where'd that come from? My three lines seem to have little relevance to that. [14:35] Sounds good. Let's head over there now. [14:36] I see. [14:36] elkbuntu: Seen -au-chat? [14:36] wgrant, so I do read what you say ;-) [14:37] sorry no, sec [14:38] Must be un-CoC enough to dispose of him... [14:40] jrib, you dud, you. [14:41] Deadset dud, at that. [14:41] indeed [14:42] when I asked siccness to stop breaking his responses up into multiple lines and offer constructive help, he said that wasn't his style, so he wouldn't help anymore. Now I've asked him to stop telling people he can't help them (and now I've asked him to stop). I have to go, but feel free to ban if he continues [14:42] i am abstaining from any decision pertaining a removal from the channel, but you need not. [14:42] s/(.*)// [14:42] he's headed to bed. he'll continue tomorrow when he gets drunk again. [14:43] I think drunkenness is his default state. [14:43] if he doesnt have to work the next day, yes. [14:43] that's never been a valid excuse in #*buntu* though [14:44] as i mentioned to jrib before... this guy used to be an op of -au and -au-chat [14:45] I wondered where he'd gone from the access lists. [14:45] i removed him a while back when he decided to ban someone from -au for disagreeing with him [14:46] Ah. Lovely [14:53] wgrant, btw, the guy in -chat now is dead serious when he asks what things mean [15:01] * ompaul breaks ompaul and gets to keep all the pieces === profoX` is now known as Gunirus === Gunirus is now known as profoX === profoX is now known as profoX` [16:24] is there a factoid for those poor souls who insist on using windows partitions and they get some file system inconsistency junk error messages [16:24] * ompaul offers nealmcb a seat at the table [16:25] pici has a life sorry weekend [16:26] lo [16:26] evand, ^^ I think that you might be closest to an answer to that [16:26] * ompaul just thinks ok - not saying, guessing [16:39] smallfoot currently being mediated [16:39] wants an ubuntu channel with no rules. [16:40] haha [16:40] explain that'd mean no rule to stop us kickbanning his butt to kingdom come [16:41] how he ever got a cloak I cannot imagine. [16:42] his cloak has a - in it.. i thought that qualified for a /x-12355676 crappy thing [16:43] smallfoot-, its like use mosquito spray in arctic referring to antivirus advice [16:49] that logic hurts my brain [16:50] apparently #ubuntu is not the only channel he is being disruptive in either. [16:50] you mean other channels have rules too? drat! :) [16:50] yeah; he asked again for a #norules channel :) [16:51] it conveniently exists [16:51] hehe [16:53] he's just informed #freenode someone wants to removes his cloak [16:53] he expressed much concern about that. [16:54] said he would trade it for 1000 year ban in #ubuntu. [16:55] riiight, because he'll be around to see that ban lifted and all [16:55] heh [16:55] and of course we'll be around to enforce it [16:55] the singularity is near :) [16:56] he's in +1 too [16:56] anyway, it's 2am. im off to bed. cya [16:56] cya [17:56] Jack_Sparrow, when you have a moment ping me please [17:56] ping [17:56] msg me [18:38] elkbuntu: - is the only non-alphanumeric character that is allowed in cloaks [19:03] * jussi01 walks in [19:04] lo jussi01 [19:04] Heya Seeker` [19:04] how be?
