GeneralAntillesandre__, our database is getting too big or somethnig.18:36
andre__or my brain is getting worse.18:37
GeneralAntillesHehe18:37
andre__https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8579 has two dups already.18:37

andre__what is an "interlocutor"?!?!23:31
andre__https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=858823:31
povbotBug 8588: Interlocutor hear short noise with BH-904 bluetooth headset after answer23:31
andre__Aha. "the master of ceremonies of a minstrel show". Thanks Wikipedia.23:32
timeless_mbpplease do complain23:32
timeless_mbpthe word is jargon and doesn't belong in our bugzilla23:32
timeless_mbpas a native speaker i don't like it either23:32
andre__so what does it mean in jargon?23:33
* timeless_mbp wonders if the bug filer used a Foo=>English dictionary23:33
andre__probably23:33
andre__ru->en23:33
timeless_mbphttp://www.google.com/dictionary?aq=f&langpair=en%7Cen&hl=en&q=interlocutor23:33
timeless_mbpYour interlocutor is the person with whom you are having a conversation. N-COUNT oft poss N formal23:33
timeless_mbpin this case, wikipedia mislead you23:34
timeless_mbp"the other party"23:34
andre__crazy23:34
timeless_mbpactually "caller"23:34
timeless_mbpis the proper word in this case23:34
timeless_mbpsince that's what the other party is (see step 2)23:35
andre__ah, thanks. that one I know23:35
timeless_mbpheh23:35
andre__bah. I try to find a dup and mark it as such :-P23:35
* timeless_mbp sighs23:36
timeless_mbptranslation dictionaries are a mess23:36
andre__sigh, reading the marketing BS some people probably really even believe themselves internally makes me poke23:36
andre__err puke23:36
timeless_mbpdo me a favor: don't send that my way23:37
timeless_mbpi want to keep my dinner23:37
andre__nah, my laptop keyboard has a drainage exactly for such cases23:37
timeless_mbpyours might, mine doesn't23:39
wolf^andre__, 2: a person who takes part in a conversation23:40
wolf^andre__, from wordnet :P23:40
andre__haha, thanks23:40
timeless_mbpwolf^: a bit late, google's definition worked nicely :)23:40
timeless_mbpandre__: loquacious is probably the word you want to learn from this23:41
timeless_mbphttp://www.google.com/dictionary?aq=f&langpair=en|en&hl=en&q=loquacious23:41
timeless_mbp    * adjective: talkative, garrulous, voluble, chatty, gabby, verbose, gossipy, long-tongued23:41
timeless_mbp'talkative'23:41
timeless_mbpbasically the latin root here is 'talk'23:41
wolf^andre__, you might want to look at dict.org23:42
timeless_mbploquacious is more useful than interlocutor23:42
andre__As I'm one of the folks pushing for French to become the official default language of the Gnome Desktop, I won't put much efforts into this English transition language23:42
timeless_mbpare you serious?23:43
timeless_mbpandre__: in this case, you might as well23:43
andre__It's like coding for the Maemo5 platform when Maemo6 has already a qt beta preview or sth like that :-P23:43
timeless_mbpLatin => French => English23:43
andre__no, I'm not. for reference, http://ftp.gnome.org/conspiracy/23:43
andre__So interlocutor == the caller (me), or the person being called??23:50
andre__hmm. probably the second23:50
andre__hehehe.... "I know: true testers, talk.maemo.org users, people filing bugs on bugs.maemo.org --- they are all not real users. The UI team knows what the "real" users want."23:54
GeneralAntillesAmen.23:56
GeneralAntillesToo bad nobody fitting that description actually exists.23:56
andre__internal comment by one of the Nokians being also active in bugs.maemo.org23:57
