[00:01] <IdleOne> received a threat form Hopsa in pm
[00:01] <IdleOne> 090910-[19:00:19] <Hopsa> You seem to suck, good bye lame fucker :)
[00:01] <IdleOne> I think I am going to be hacked :)
[00:25] <IdleOne> now Dingoz is sending similar pm's as Hopsa did
[00:25] <IdleOne> I must be a magnet'
[01:33] <serit> hi
[01:34] <serit> I tried ubuntu  but for some reason Im barred from there
[01:35] <IdleOne> serit: as funkyHat explained before there is a ban on your ip range
[01:35] <serit> I cant get my usb drive working
[01:35] <IdleOne> have you used any other nicks before in #ubuntu?
[01:37] <serit> well I came here from google
[01:39] <serit> can you help?
[01:39] <IdleOne> serit: try to join #ubuntu now please
[01:40] <serit> ok but i get this    You are banned from this channel
[01:40] <IdleOne> serit: give me a moment please
[01:40] <serit> why
[01:40] <Flannel> serit: He's working on it.
[01:41] <IdleOne> Flannel: can you please set an exempt for serit
[01:41] <IdleOne> I don't seem to know how
[01:41] <Flannel> IdleOne: Sure.
[01:41] <IdleOne> then explain to me how it is done :)
[01:42] <serit> ok maybe this is a private place
[01:42] <IdleOne> serit: just one minute please
[01:43] <Flannel> serit: Please try and join #ubuntu
[01:45] <IdleOne> serit: are you able to join #ubuntu now?
[01:46] <serit> IdleOne: no
[01:47] <IdleOne> ahh I see
[01:47] <IdleOne> you also need to be registered
[01:47] <IdleOne> !register | serit
[01:48] <jrib> really?
[01:48] <IdleOne> channel is +r
[01:48] <jrib> hmm, I thought exception let you join unregistered but not sure
[01:48] <IdleOne> maybe
[01:49] <IdleOne> I am not sure either now but wouldn't hurt to be registered
[01:49] <serit> so I sould register my nick first?
[01:49] <Flannel> +e overrides +b and +q, but not +r
[01:49] <IdleOne> serit: yes
[01:50] <serit> ok  so how do I do that?
[01:50] <IdleOne> follow the link ubottu gave you up there
[01:50] <jrib> probably good time to -r the channel anyway
[01:51] <serit> ok  sorry which link?
[01:51] <jrib> floodbot reads minds I guess?
[01:51] <IdleOne> serit: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[01:52] <IdleOne> jrib: PHP is very powerful
[01:52] <jrib> pfft
[01:52] <IdleOne> I think floodbot's also use telepathy
[01:52] <IdleOne> would have to ask ljl
[01:53] <Seeker`> a mixture of telepathy and magic, I believe
[01:54] <IdleOne> serit: you should be able to join #ubuntu now
[01:55] <jrib> this floodbot5 is a rogue...
[01:55] <IdleOne> it's the telepathic/magical version
[01:56] <Flannel> IdleOne: I don't know many people that like using empathy for IRC, so I'm not sure the floodbots would either
[01:56] <IdleOne> or not
[01:56] <IdleOne> Flannel: not empathy, telepathy-tubes
[01:56] <IdleOne> they link the ops minds to the bots database
[01:57] <jrib> like internet tubes but better
[01:57] <IdleOne> exactly
[01:57] <IdleOne> now all that is left is to upgrade our flux capacitors and we should be set
[01:58] <Flannel> IdleOne: telepathy is used by empathy
[01:58] <IdleOne> ok the exempt worked
[01:58] <jrib> and refine some plutonium
[01:58] <IdleOne> Flannel: yes I know but they forgot to load the "not so sucky" irc module in empathy
[02:01] <IdleOne> so Flannel it's +e nick*!*@* ?
[02:01] <Flannel> IdleOne: It's +e [regular mask]
[02:02] <IdleOne> k
[02:02] <IdleOne> and +r blocks +e
[02:02]  * IdleOne notes
[02:03] <Flannel> IdleOne: Yours wouldn't have worked because you had *!foobar@whatever, but you need to allow the ~ in *!~foobar@* (when people aren't using identd, which is most people)
[02:03] <jrib> yep, freenode docs say that.  I was just wrong :)
[02:03] <IdleOne> so I was missing the ~
[02:03] <IdleOne> thanks Flannel
[02:05] <Flannel> IdleOne: also, for doing non-floodbot exemptions (that presumably last a while) specifying a single IP can be confusing when their IP changes, that's why I did a nick based one (and I was going to mention to serit to always use this nick, or let us know if it changes)
[02:05] <IdleOne> Flannel: well the ban was set very broad by bazhang. I suspect it may be the user who caused the ban in the first place.
[02:06] <IdleOne> will see...
[02:06] <jrib> so much for that
[02:06] <IdleOne> heh
[10:34] <elky> would it be so terribly wrong to banforward him to #freenode?
[10:34] <elky> (yes, i know it would be, but far out)
[10:34] <jussi> I dont think we can, with the new banforward flags, right?
[10:37] <jussi> jpds: easter_egg in #ubuntu-bots-team was after you...
[10:38] <jpds> jussi: I know, he sent an email.
[10:38] <jussi> jpds: ahh, great
[10:38] <jussi> jpds: I dont suppose you would have enough room in your irssi config to sit in that channel?
[10:41] <elky> jussi, um, depends... obviously it's not a mandatory thing since fix-your-connection and similar channels exists and all
[10:43] <jussi> elky: you need to have +F set on the channel to allow anyone to forward there, if not, you need access in both channels iirc
[10:43]  * jussi looks
[10:43] <jussi> ahh yes
[10:43] <jussi> +F (enable forwarding)	 This mode can be set by any channel operator to allow operators in other channels to set bans to forward clients to their channel, without requiring ops in it (see +b, above).
[10:43] <elky> :(
[10:51] <Mamarok> jussi: could metabot be reenabled for #kubuntu, please? this is annoying
[10:55] <jussi> Mamarok: I will pass your request along to the correct person
[11:10] <Mamarok> jussi: thanks a bunch :)
[11:45] <bazhang> does ubuntu have a proprietary solution?
[11:47] <jussi> who what?
[11:47] <bazhang> hermes in #ubuntu
[12:18] <jpds> bazhang: No?
[12:19] <bazhang> jpds, never really found out. he wanted performance results without actually trying UEC
[12:20] <jpds> bazhang: If performance is what he wants, he might as well pipe his data to /dev/null
[12:20] <bazhang> jpds, hehe
[12:24] <elky> jpds, seen the mysql/postgres animated video thingie
[12:24] <jpds> elky: Oh dear god.
[12:25] <elky> you've basically just recited a line from it.
[12:25] <bazhang> how prescient!
[12:25] <bazhang> elky, he just gave me that link five seconds ago
[12:25] <jpds> elky: Linkage?
[12:26] <elky> i dunno i got the link on work's irc and i'm not at work right now
[12:26] <elky> bazhang, share?
[12:26] <jpds> Found it.
[12:27] <bazhang> http://highscalability.com/blog/2010/9/5/hilarious-video-relational-database-vs-nosql-fanbois.html
[12:28] <elky> bazhang, no.
[12:28] <elky> there's an even better one
[12:28] <bazhang> elky, whoops
[12:28] <elky> bazhang, a parody of this one i believe
[12:33] <jpds> Can't find it on Google. :(
[12:33] <elky> and xtranormal is stupid and lacks a searchy thing, or hides it too well
[12:35] <elky> http://nigel.mcnie.name/blog/mysql-is-a-database
[12:35] <elky> jpds \o/
[12:37] <bazhang> elky, hehe
[12:47] <jussi> oh dear that is incredibly funny
[12:47] <jrib> hahaha
[12:48] <jrib> "pipe you're data to /dev/null"
[12:48] <jrib> your
[12:48] <jrib> ugh
[12:49] <elky> both of them are essentially the same script, but the mysql/postgres one just takes it further
[12:50] <jrib> he convinced me, let's use mongodb for ubottu
[12:51] <elky> lol
[12:52] <jrib> xtranormal looks like fun
[12:52] <jpds> We could just make ubottu read data from /dev/urandom for factoids.
[12:53] <elky> !mongodb
[12:53]  * jrib tempts elky to link to the video
[12:53] <elky> !mongodb is webscale
[12:53] <elky> !mongodb
[12:53] <elky> !no mongodb is web scale
[12:54] <elky> That's all we need.
[12:58] <jussi> !mongodb
[12:58] <jussi> ?
[12:58] <jpds> jussi: See link above pls.
[12:59] <jussi> jpds: I watched the video. I just dont understand why this is being put into ubottu??
[12:59] <bazhang> humor
[13:00] <jpds> Humour is very important.
[13:00] <elky> !love
[13:00] <elky> aww, weve removed the fun ones now too?
[13:00] <elky> !42
[13:00] <jussi> !love-#ubuntu-offtopic
[13:00] <elky> ah
[13:00] <jussi> please add the humourous factoids as -ot only
[13:01] <popey> HUMOUR IS NOT ALLOWED!
[13:01] <popey> etc
[13:01] <bazhang> uhh what?
[13:01] <bazhang> !-fail
[13:01] <jussi> and please remember not to reference specific irc users in them
[13:01] <bazhang> ^^?
[13:01] <popey> !popey
[13:01] <popey> ahem
[13:01] <elky> i can kinda understand the mongodb one, in #u could get confusing
[13:01] <jussi> !forget popey
[13:02] <jpds> :'<
[13:03] <elky> if we let any vanity factoids exist, we a stack of factoids being inhabited by pictures of pseudotrolls made by other pseudotrolls :-/
[13:03] <bazhang> the iron fist of anti-humor
[13:03] <elky> er., we get a
[13:04] <elky> !mongodb-#ubuntu-offtopic is web scale.
[13:04] <popey> !popey-#ubuntu-uk is the UK alternative to elvis.
[13:04] <elky> !forget mongodb
[13:05] <bazhang> !fail
[13:05] <bazhang> ??
[13:06] <jussi> bazhang: you are using that factoid wrong
[13:06] <elky> !lies
[13:06] <jussi> !fail | bazhang
[13:06] <bazhang> so some humor are ok then.
[13:06] <popey> !isitout
[13:06] <jussi> bazhang: as we mentioned, just in certain channels
[13:06] <bazhang> only in -ot
[13:06] <elky> !no lies is <reply> Mostly just statistics and factoids, but also caek!
[13:07] <jussi> popey: I just mentioned [15:01:23] <jussi> and please remember not to reference specific irc users in them
[13:07] <elky> jussi, even loco channels which have their own rules?
[13:08] <popey> a bit of light hearted fun often makes the place more homely
[13:08] <popey> agreed, not pointing out peoples flaws is a good thing
[13:08] <popey> the Seeker` one was a bit rude in the past, but I guess that's gone now
[13:09] <popey> !seeker
[13:09] <bazhang> very
[13:09] <jussi> popey: the thing is we are aiming for some sort of consistency here. BUt Ill chat again with the rest of the ircc and we can rethink it.
[13:09] <elky> popey, mostly we put a stop to it because it was celebrating pseudotrolls and being used by other pseudotrolls to go too far to the point of obnoxious
[13:11] <popey> consistency across core channels jussi ?
[13:11] <popey> or across the whole namespace?
[13:11] <jussi> popey: consistency across channels with ubottu or direct clones in them.
[13:11] <popey> ok, be good to see these guidelines documented, if they're not already
[13:12] <popey> (sorry if they are and I am not aware of it)
[13:13] <jussi> popey: we did, although it seems some have been removed, Ill follow up on it
[13:13] <bazhang> seems to be made up on the fly
[13:14] <elky> when did locos lose irc autonomy?
[13:14] <jpds> elky: Haha, nice video.
[15:00] <Pici> Davsank: Please try to join #ubuntu-offtopic again.
[15:00] <bazhang><EMAIL_ADDRESS>is the ban
[15:01] <Pici> I know.
[15:01] <Davsank> ok, one sec.
[15:01] <Davsank> cool, i'm in, thanks.
[15:01] <Pici> np
[15:01] <Pici> I added a +e
[15:01] <Pici> gotta meeting now
[15:01] <bazhang> hehe
[15:05] <bazhang> ugh
[15:43] <bazhang> hover, hi
[16:04] <jpds> bazhang: He left.
[16:05] <bazhang> hehe thanks jpds
[18:01] <jpds> .
[18:02] <Pici> agreed.
[21:15] <gnomefreak> why am i being quoted in metabot?
[21:39] <marienz> are the floodbots supposed to be quite this chatty in #-unregged?
[21:42] <marienz> that is: it looks like in at least some cases all three floodbots ask you a security question if you join
[21:45] <ikonia> that's something ljl is working on
[21:45] <ikonia> maybe having it live isn't a good idea at this tim
[21:45] <ikonia> time
[21:51] <mneptok> TIMMEH!
[21:56] <marienz> I only noticed because it is making idoru... twitchy
