spb ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4766165.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ... * UberLord summons the mighty dev-rel < spb@> i hope you're not implying that openrc is a person now < mraudsepp@> it writes itself the joke? < UberLord+> spb: did the software make itself? < spb@> one can only assume there was some sort of a human behind it < UberLord+> right, so if you say it's badly made then you're really insulting the person who made it < spb@> no, not really < UberLord+> no, yes really < UberLord+> grab some balls and insult me directly < rbrown@> UberLord: how did you infer that? < rbrown@> rbrown: I've written lots of badly written stuff < spb@> only if that person views the code in question as the defining product of their lives, and the only thing giving meaning to their existence < bheekling+> omg, what have I done? < UberLord+> bheekling: opened a can of worms that goes back some time < spb@> we've all written plenty of bad code at one time or another. most of us improve it, though < Chainsaw@> bheekling: You only started the apocalypse. We're not going to shoot the messenger. * bheeklin hides anyway to be on the safe side ;) < UberLord+> spb: my code improves all the time < UberLord+> spb: do you actually code? < spb@> of course ----------------------------------------------------------------------- < tsunam@> spb: I've forwarded on a complaint about you to devrel for banning ferringb without justification from here < ColdWind@> eroyf: aha < tsunam@> spb: have a wonderful day =) < rbrown@> I heard that's what eroyf was getting < spb@> lol. < eroyf+> ColdWind: read the bug for references :P < ColdWind@> I'd suggest to remove professionality related words from that bug :) -!- mode/#gentoo-dev [+o Tupone] by ChanServ < eroyf+> hehe < ColdWind@> we are not professionals, and eroyf is not expected to be professional neither < spb@> ColdWind: if you do that there is no bug < spb@> and funnily enough... < ColdWind@> "insulting, trollish < ColdWind@> this can be discussed < zlin@> I'll argue that this has never been a Clean Language channel so this is a huge change of policy < ColdWind@> unprofessional, childish, crude shouldn't be a problem < spb@> zlin: it was, about three years ago < spb@> then everyone realised that noone cares < zlin@> ok, never in the time I've been around ;) And that with all the "freedom of speech" stuff around... :-> well, those that cared got kicked when they tried to care so they moved to more polite channels ... < rbrown@> and nothing of value was lost < tsunam@> Philantrop: one would hope peole would consider and use "common logic" when applying things < tsunam@> Philantrop: sadly...that doesn't seem to happen often in Gentoo :( < spb@> and common logic says "learn to untwist your panties" < spbecker+> zlin: it is only a clean language channel when folks get more sand than usual stuck in irritating places and decide to take the stance of clean language just to get rid of somebody they don't like tsunam: Hm... And I thought "freedom of speech" was an absolute value in itself... You guys keep telling me that, e. g. when you protect Nazis. < spbecker+> seriously, almost all of those "your moms" Fieldy's bug are taken completely out of context < spbecker+> in conversations with people who really don't care < eroyf+> godwin! < tsunam@> spbecker: as if nothing else ever is... < spb@> Philantrop: no no, it's "freedom to say anything you like as long as the americans don't mind it" < rbrown@> spbecker: I took your mom out of context last night < spbecker+> rbrown: did she break you? spb: Oh, yes, sorry, forgot about that exception. < tsunam@> spb: aye sadly, american's are more uptight about things then other cultures, but its the way of it < rbrown@> spbecker: no, I wore my girdle this time < spbecker+> rbrown: win < spb@> which makes their values irrelevant in an international community < spb@> because they're so far out of whack from everyone else's tsunam: Yea, and they should rule the world. < ColdWind@> tsunam: "but its the way of it", that could be applied to your bug ;) < tsunam@> spb: one would suggest that the most conservative group, would incite the least uprising and issues between people < astinus@> lets not forget where the Foundation will be incorporated. < tsunam@> And ultimately, everyone falls under that umbrella < astinus@> international community, sure, but lets not piss in each others sandboxes < spb@> no, the most conservative group is the most likely to raise an almighty stink when some member of another group says something perfectly reasonable ----------------------------------------------------------------------- < astinus@> spb: .. case in point of why I think Gentoo would be a nicer community if you left. You don't vote, yet you feel the need to say "You're incompetent" < spb@> astinus: but you are < spbecker+> rbrown: no no, "sense now it makes. mmmmmhhmmm" rbrown: feel free to stop harassing me < astinus@> spb: I'm sorry but you're not contributing towards change for the better, you're just kicking up a fuss. < tsunam@> spb: either back that up with facts or drop it < spb@> bonsaikitten: feel free to leave so he doesn't get a chacne < spb@> chance, even < rbrown@> bonsaikitten: feel free to start acting as something other than a lackwit < tsunam@> astinus: watch it as well please < tsunam@> rbrown: watch it as well < spb@> astinus: oh, i gave up on fixing gentoo a long time ago < spb@> it's far beyond that now ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 15:19:39 --> ferringb was kicked from #gentoo-dev by spb [banning you now in case you troll in future. turn and turn about] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- #gentoo-devrel, 26 April 2008 I think all devrel' policies are retarded just a passing comment not meant to get people worked up
