[11:04] <Valks> !ops
[11:04] <ubottu> Help! ogra, highvoltage, mhz, JaneW, Burgundavia or Seveas
[11:05] <alkisg> heh
[11:33] <highvoltage> oash, will have to update that :)
=== alkisg_kubuntu is now known as alkisg
[14:06] <alkisg> dgroos1, Hyperbyte: does "epoptes" (something like janitor) sound better than "panoptes" (all-seeing)? :)
[14:06] <alkisg> Or both of them suck? :D
[14:07] <ogra_> well, how do you call a guy with a mop in a school ?
[14:07] * ogra_ would take that term fo rthe translation
[14:08] <alkisg> ...cleaning lady? :D
[14:08] <alkisg> We don't have guys with mops, we're an old-style society :D
[14:08] <ogra_> nah, the guy that also changes the lightbulbs
[14:08] <alkisg> Yeah, that's epoptes
[14:08] <ogra_> and fixes the stuck sink etc
[14:08] <alkisg> It's the same word in the army too, for the guy that gives guns or other stuff
[14:08] <ogra_> well, then i would take that name :)
[14:09] <ogra_> though the janitor is rather a program that removes bits instead of giving out bits
[14:10] <ogra_> thats what google translate gives me btw: επιστάτης
[14:10] <ogra_> (no idea what it means :) )
[14:10] <alkisg> It's a more used translation for janitor
[14:12] <alkisg> Hyperbyte expressed the idea that "panoptes is a creature that lives 10 miles under the sea" and he's afraid of it
[14:12] <alkisg> ...so we may have to change it, if he feels better with epoptes :D
[14:12] <ogra_> heh
[14:13] <alkisg> ogra_, will you make it to BTS?
[14:14] <ogra_> not sure, still fiddling with my flights (and as usual i'm really late and the travel agent hates me)
[14:14] <ogra_> but i had planned to
[14:14] <alkisg> Hehe
[14:14] <ogra_> matter of flights
[14:14] * alkisg wishes you make it :)
[14:14] <ogra_> you will ?
[14:14] <alkisg> Yup
[14:14] <ogra_> awesome, then i have to
[14:14] <alkisg> Booked all flights weeks ago
[14:14] <alkisg> Cool!!!
[14:14] <ogra_> (though more because of megan than because of you i must admit :) )
[14:15] <alkisg> Hehe
[14:15] <ogra_> you are a bit to male :)
[14:15] <alkisg> Who is megan? Is she in irc?
[14:15] <ogra_> and she's a cutie
[14:15] <ogra_> she rtuns the seawall motel
[14:15] <alkisg> Aaaah :)
[14:15] <stgraber> :)
[14:15] <ogra_> well, her parents actually
[14:15] <alkisg> Maybe I'll arrive a week earlier then
[14:16] <ogra_> its worth it :)
[14:16] * ogra_ stayed a few days extra last time
[14:16] <alkisg> We have the UDS now, can't stay later
[14:16] * alkisg reboots into gnome, something about kde fonts hurting his eyes...
[14:16] <ogra_> ah. you are at UDS too ?!?
[14:16] <alkisg> Yup, got a sponshorship ;)
[14:16] <alkisg> brb
[14:17] <ogra_> wowie !!
[17:04] <dgroos> alkisg: just saw the ping now--not effective the dgroos1 ping--it doesn't jump to get my attention :) dgroos is the one to ping.
[17:04] <alkisg> hehe, in #ltsp it was fun, I talked to dgroos1, and dgroos answered, then I talked to dgroos and drgoos1 answered :D
