hey #fish is being spammed
JamieH 2017-02-27 15:45:25
any netops about?
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:45:56
Ah, I see.
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:45:57
gry I can see how that can be beneficial.

amnet 2017-02-27 15:46:11
If the problem is isolated to that channel you can have the chanops kick.
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:46:30
JamieH I thought they'd eat it.
gry 2017-02-27 15:46:36
the channel has no channel ops at all, alas
gry 2017-02-27 15:47:03
i would suggest to close it and replace it with a forward to ##unavailable as the group has moved their official channel to another network
amnet 2017-02-27 15:47:12
s/chanop/anyone on the access list/g
gry 2017-02-27 15:47:32
JamieH: meanwhile i would suggest to not talk with the troll and talk about something else
gry 2017-02-27 15:47:44
JamieH: if the troll isn't given attention, they may leave
JamieH 2017-02-27 15:47:56
gry: sigh...
gry 2017-02-27 15:48:17
just move over to the other channel at the other network and if there's someone else awake ask them to do the same :)
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:48:33
gry Yes, makes good sense that. I used to play in a game, and that was a crucial factor, and a point of topic at the time about player involvement, when they had ideas.
JamieH 2017-02-27 15:48:59
gry: lol... they're in here...
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:49:00
gry From there, many forks started, with many being really enjoyable, let alone content being updated regularly.
gry 2017-02-27 15:49:07
JamieH: i'm aware, i think
gry 2017-02-27 15:49:29
Speiros: yes, hopefully you find it useful too
JamieH 2017-02-27 15:49:31
different handle though, not in here under that name
gry 2017-02-27 15:50:06
Speiros: ie at github people are often making pull requests without receiving the said access, and it's a bit of a problem
gry 2017-02-27 15:50:51
JamieH: i sent you a uri in private message
gry 2017-02-27 15:51:13
_aEvl_: you too
_aEvl_ 2017-02-27 15:52:16
na, i was trying to play with the bot
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:55:12
brb
gry 2017-02-27 15:55:31
amnet: if you would like to suggest a place where these principles work without the 'unnecessary hostility', i would be willing to watch it and learn from it while putting effort to have minimal negative impact on it
amnet 2017-02-27 15:56:00
gry: Well, the reason I bring it up is because I consider it applicable anywhere.
amnet 2017-02-27 15:56:39
I don't consider different communities to have different social fabrics, just different customs.
gry 2017-02-27 15:56:41
i can understand that; what i mean is me joining somewhere to watch the different atmosphere that would set
gry 2017-02-27 15:56:54
if you're aware of one
gry 2017-02-27 15:57:14
as it would probably have more instances of successful reactions than here, and watching succesful good reactions would make it easier to learn them
amnet 2017-02-27 15:57:22
Right, and I'd love to explicitly provide that opportunity, but IMO it exists anywhere you exhibit that willingness to watch it.
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:58:08
Bad connection I believe.
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:58:13
Anyway, back.
gry 2017-02-27 15:58:33
no, your irc client consciously sent a 'Leaving' quit message, it wasn't a networking issue
gry 2017-02-27 15:58:36
amnet ok
Speiros 2017-02-27 15:58:56
gry I mean not from here to server, but from me to ISP and out.
gry 2017-02-27 15:59:21
if you disconnected from your isp, i think such quit message would not have been delivered
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:00:03
I signed out first. I noticed there was a lot of lag, and opened a web page, which was also slow.
amnet 2017-02-27 16:00:23
I noticed some of your messages lagged earlier.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:00:25
I signed out, then turned it off and on.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:00:39
Yeah, it will probably happen again, as I'm on a shared gateway
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:00:58
At least 6 if not 7 of us.
gry 2017-02-27 16:01:26
ok; if it's happening regularly, maybe ask your isp to fix it. keep notes of the speed
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:01:42
True.
amnet 2017-02-27 16:02:14
IRC gateway or VPN?
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:02:19
Actually, I need to do stuff, so I'd better do so before it's too late in the day. Just after 2pm here.
gry 2017-02-27 16:02:23
no, he is connecting directly, i think
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:02:34
Yes, except through tor
gry 2017-02-27 16:02:47
was your browser thing through tor too
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:02:53
Yes:)
gry 2017-02-27 16:03:00
that's why it lags then; not your isp problem
amnet 2017-02-27 16:03:06
Not much you can do about lag on Tor I'm afraid.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:03:12
Good point actually...
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:03:35
Never thought of that. There's quite a load on the ISP, so it isn't technically their fault.
amnet 2017-02-27 16:03:49
Every so often the NSA likes to flood it with packets to gain a better heuristic of its overall structiure.
gry 2017-02-27 16:04:05
perhaps next time it's slow, open a new tor-free browser window and test speed in both and compare
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:04:17
gry Yeah, true.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:04:36
I like the fact that they have to store it, and attempt to decrypt it, all to find nothing of interest.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:04:47
If they don't ask, and just take, then they can dig.
gry 2017-02-27 16:04:54
rob0: sorry for the counter-troll; was merely not a funny joke, i didn't mean to offend you
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:04:59
Otherwise, they could have just asked, etc.
amnet 2017-02-27 16:05:11
Speiros: Decrypt nothing. They have more data than they have intellect to analyze it with.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:05:30
amnet Ah...lol...I like to see people working...
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:05:40
amnet exactly my thoughts
amnet 2017-02-27 16:05:54
I do too, which is why it irks me that they sit on the data.
amnet 2017-02-27 16:06:12
You will always be more productive when you bite off an amount you can actually chew.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:06:28
amnet True.
Speiros 2017-02-27 16:07:47
Ok, I'll see you good folks around later on. Enjoy your day:)
amnet 2017-02-27 16:07:55
Cya then.

any staff here?
thumbs 2017-02-27 16:20:05
OS-27315: if this is for a cloak request, you must register with NickServ first.
elky 2017-02-27 16:20:07
there are, but they are probably idle. they can answer questions when they reappear if you ask them
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:20:38
I registered with NickServ but no email was sent
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:20:45
is there a time delay?
amnet 2017-02-27 16:20:52
Yes.
amnet 2017-02-27 16:20:57
But are you sure you typed the email correctly?
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:21:00
ah, ok
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:21:02
yes

thumbs 2017-02-27 16:21:26
OS-27315: don't replace NickServ with your nickname, either.
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:21:30
yes, it is my work email
amnet 2017-02-27 16:21:43
Did you check your spam folders?
thumbs 2017-02-27 16:21:52
OS-27315: your current nickname isn't registered. Which one did you register?
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:21:56
I did, no joy
amnet 2017-02-27 16:22:24
I think there might be a command to resend the verification email.
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:22:30
@thumbs, I am pretty sure I am using the proper commands
thumbs 2017-02-27 16:22:44
amnet: you're missing the part where the account isn't registered to begin with.
thumbs 2017-02-27 16:22:56
OS-27315: well, OS-27315 isn't registered. See /msg NickServ help register
amnet 2017-02-27 16:23:05
thumbs: +r doesn't activate until you verify the account.

gry: Are you sure? My client doesn't really tell me this stuff.
thumbs 2017-02-27 16:24:04
OS-27315: again, do *not* replace NickServ with your nickname, or anything else. Use "NickServ" literally.
gry 2017-02-27 16:24:08
i know it is on some other networks and i can understand expecting it here
gry 2017-02-27 16:24:17
you could try using '/mode amnet' to view your current mode
amnet 2017-02-27 16:24:28
I tried, client is terrible.
elky 2017-02-27 16:24:35
then get a better one
gry 2017-02-27 16:24:38
sounds like room for improvement, which client?
amnet 2017-02-27 16:24:42
I would if I could.
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:24:47
I just get a 'No Channel joined' when I try the help command
thumbs 2017-02-27 16:25:01
OS-27315: try /query NickServ, then help register
amnet 2017-02-27 16:25:03
gry: Adium. It's not an IRC client per-se.
dax 2017-02-27 16:25:23
it's pidgin for Mac, for anyone who hasn't encountered it
elky 2017-02-27 16:25:37

hexchat

amnet: (as doing so would be the shortest way to editing it)
amnet 2017-02-27 16:28:03

thumbs 2017-02-27 16:28:14
OS-27315: hexchat can use /query NickServ just fine. Are you sure you're not making a typo?
gry 2017-02-27 16:28:54
amnet: I believe you can run the released version and your in-process-of-fixing version alongside, if you tell it to use a custom install directory, so that breaking things in the being-fixed version doesn't interfere with your chat
OS-27315 2017-02-27 16:28:59
