[01:46:57] <cmn32480> hang on I missed at least one in there
[01:47:00] <Bytram> got any plans for 'touristy' things in any of those places
[01:47:00] <cmn32480> lemme check the calendar
[01:47:06] <Bytram> np
[01:47:40] <cmn32480> and maybe some time in New Jersey
[01:48:17] <Bytram> had a couple college buddies from new jersey
[01:48:28] <Bytram> if you get out of the sities, can be pretty nice
[01:48:33] <Bytram> s/sisties/cities/
[01:48:35] <cmn32480> I know
[01:48:38] <cmn32480> grew up there
[01:48:49] <Bytram> well, best of luck on your travels and efforts
[01:48:57] <cmn32480> it's the job...
[01:49:00] <Bytram> i did not know that
[01:49:09] <cmn32480> not really a ton of fun.. but it's the job
[01:49:13] <Bytram> nod nod
[01:49:21] <Bytram> if it were easy, they'd not pay as much
[01:49:28] <cmn32480> 'zactly
[01:49:43] <Bytram> btw, I'm having a bit of a problem trying to D/L the latest PaleMoon
[01:49:53] <Bytram> can't get the sah256 sum to match
[01:50:06] <Bytram> was wondering if you could try and compare notes?
[01:50:11] <Bytram> https://www.palemoon.org
[01:50:11] <systemd> ^ 03Download the Pale Moon browser
[01:51:00] <Bytram> I've tried downloading from the first two "Pale Moon mirror #1 (EU)" and "Moon mirror #2 (US)",
[01:51:17] <Bytram> got same file for both, but do not get the same sha-256 sum they have ont hat page
[01:51:29] <cmn32480> ok
[01:51:30] <chromas> I get a matching sum,
[01:51:39] <cmn32480> trying to remember what I use to check the SHA
[01:52:18] <Bytram> the page has the sha-256 sum as being: 62fb266883bd697a71797eab95858628d2090ce10499e50782f52dc9ff84502e
[01:52:53] <Bytram> okay, now wait a minute...
[01:52:59] <Bytram> now my sums match!!??!!!
[01:53:19] <cmn32480> have a bead off on your abacus?
[01:53:24] <chromas> Did you accidentally run it before the download finished?
[01:53:28] <takyon> PEBKAC
[01:53:38] <cmn32480> PICNIC error nodoubt
[01:53:47] <Bytram> urrrg.
[01:53:50] <chromas> or do you have more than one installer in your downloads folder?
[01:53:51] <Bytram> found out what happened
[01:53:52] <chromas> picnic++
[01:53:52] <Bender> karma - picnic: 1
[01:54:09] <Bytram> they changed their web page to display the sha-256 sum instead of a sha1 sum
[01:54:45] <Bytram> I'd coded up a short batch program to D/L the file, extract and display THEIR sum, and then compute and display mine
[01:55:01] <Bytram> when they didn't match, I fiugred I had a problem
[01:55:18] <cmn32480> somebody had the wrong SHA value
[01:55:19] <Bytram> I did, I was computing a sha1sum and comparing it to a sha256 sum
[01:55:21] <Bytram> doh!
[01:55:27] <chromas> futureproof it by making it do all the sums
[01:55:29] <Bytram> iow nvm
[01:55:32] <Bytram> pebkac
[01:55:43] <cmn32480> definite PICNIC
[01:56:03] <Bytram> well, I had problems in the past with their sums not matching up with their files!
[01:56:11] <cmn32480> SHA257 and 258 are the neext two
[01:56:13] <cmn32480> get on it!
[01:56:15] <Bytram> ~define PICNIC
[01:56:17] <exec> [urbandictionary] 03PICNIC: Acronym for "Problem in chair. Not in computer.". Used by Sysadmins to covertly describe user error to each other. Some snickering usually involved.
[01:56:31] <Bytram> ROFL!!!!!!
[01:56:42] <chromas> sha65535
[01:56:47] <Bytram> just made my day! thanks for that
[01:56:57] <takyon> isn't there a new sha under development
[01:57:02] <takyon> story within last two weeks
[01:57:07] <cmn32480> chromas - he tries to compute that.. his PC goes up in smoke
[01:57:10] <Bytram> wasn't he deposed back in the 70s?

[01:57:32] <systemd> ^ 03NIST readies 'post-quantum' crypto competition • The Register
[01:57:40] <takyon> The agency has announced that it's planning a competition similar to that which gave the world the SHA-3 algorithm to create “quantum resistant” encryption.
[01:57:52] <takyon> oh, I guess I linked the 2
[02:09:50] <cmn32480> I'm donee.

[02:10:34] <systemd> ^✓ 03Photographer Captures the ISS Looking Like the USS Enterprise
[02:11:02] <takyon> cool
[02:11:06] <Bytram> "Spaceweather writes that the ISS passes in front of the face of the moon for just “a fraction of a second” (around 0.6 seconds) as it orbits our planet at 17,000 miles per hour. Teodorescu looked up exact transit times using CalSky and then used his reflexes to nail the shot."
[02:11:23] <Bytram> THAT is impressive
[02:11:31] <Bytram> imagine sneezing at just hte wrong moment
[02:15:06] <takyon> hello darkness my old friend

[17:36:02] <janrinok> Hello! Is there life out there....?
[17:37:13] <nick> helloooooooooo
[17:37:21] <janrinok> nick!!
[17:37:36] <cmn32480> life, or intelligent life? two VERY different questions.
[17:37:43] <janrinok> cmn!!
[17:37:59] <cmn32480> janrinok !!
[17:37:59] <janrinok> we were on the intelligent life path until the last join - now I'm not so sure...
[17:38:04] <cmn32480> and you are back on ZNC
[17:38:30] <janrinok> ah, good, am I? This thing is very confusing for one so simple as myself
[17:39:04] <cmn32480> you must be. You are jsut janrinok... zz_janrinok has gone to sleep or somesuch
[17:39:32] <janrinok> well, if you say so...
[17:40:22] <cmn32480> I do.. but remember.. I don't know crap
[17:40:23] <janrinok> I still had to NickServe identify on the staff channel
[17:40:30] <cmn32480> oh
[17:40:32] <cmn32480> then maybe not
[17:40:37] <cmn32480> Deucaliion been in touch?
[17:40:43] <cmn32480> he's the IRC guy
[17:41:04] * cmn32480 thinks Deucalion is suffering from new-job-itis
[17:41:08] <janrinok> but I have got the back logs. Yeah, been talking.emailing Juggs.Deuce several times this week
[17:41:26] <cmn32480> if you got back scroll... you are on ZNC
[17:41:35] <cmn32480> and I am sorry for all the things I said that you can now read
[17:41:57] <janrinok> don't worry, it only seems to have saved a few hours
[17:42:11] * cmn32480 sighs with relief
[17:43:13] <janrinok> have you finished digging holes and filling them in again Nick?
[17:43:31] <nick> i fucking hope so
[17:43:45] <janrinok> lol - sounds as tho you didn't enjoy it
[17:43:47] <cmn32480> when you fill tehm in again with plants it is gardening
[17:43:57] <cmn32480> when you fill them with concrete, it is home ownership
[17:44:13] <nick> i seem do a lot of the home ownership stuff, without owning a home
[17:44:16] <janrinok> I'm growing weeds this year, it seems to be much easier
[17:44:42] <nick> going for the natural look, janrinok
[17:44:52] <cmn32480> I do a lot of the home ownership, and I own the house
[17:44:55] <janrinok> exactly!
[17:45:26] <janrinok> my house needs redecorating again - I can feel the list of jobs growing as I sit here
[17:45:46] <cmn32480> plant new weeds
[17:45:50] <cmn32480> it'll help
[17:46:15] <janrinok> that's an idea, hide the shabby paintwork behind towering weeds....
[17:46:25] <cmn32480> yes
[17:46:35] <cmn32480> paint sprayers are the bomb
[17:48:46] <cmn32480> unless they blow up... then they are a mess
[17:48:55] <janrinok> ...and a bomb

[19:03:22] <CoolHand> just wanted to say hi :)
[19:03:29] <janrinok> of course you can complain - you're an editor. We ALWAYS complain!
[19:03:44] <CoolHand> hehe, true :)
[19:03:59] <janrinok> too few stories, too few editors, too much work
[19:04:29] <CoolHand> yep yep... thats how it goes though right... it's why we get the big bucks..
[19:04:54] <janrinok> I here they have doubled the eds pay since I was last active....!
[19:04:58] <janrinok> hear*
[19:05:01] <CoolHand> True!
[19:05:17] <CoolHand> I don't know how they afford to do that so much, but they do somehow
[19:05:33] * CoolHand ain't too good at da maths
[19:05:45] <janrinok> I put it all down to MrC - he is just too kind to us eds
[19:07:15] <cmn32480> if by kind, you mean abusive....
[19:08:25] <janrinok> lol - there you go again, picking up on minor differences between English and American...
[19:08:28] <CoolHand> isn't this the abuse department?
[19:08:40] <CoolHand> I came here for an argument..
[19:08:41] <janrinok> no, stinky, it is NOT
[19:09:29] <CoolHand> (argument clinic by Monty Python - trying to pander to the brits in the room)
[19:09:38] <janrinok> no you weren't!
[19:09:48] <CoolHand> I WAS
[19:10:05] <janrinok> Sorry, do you want the 10 minute argument or the 30 minute?
[19:10:32] <CoolHand> heh.. I can't remember the correct response.. .it's been too long
[19:10:33] <CoolHand> :)
[19:10:38] <janrinok> yes you can!
[19:10:39] <cmn32480> I paid for the whole 30 minutes!
[19:10:45] <janrinok> no you didn'ty

[19:11:02] <janrinok> lol - and so the evening passed...
[19:11:10] <cmn32480> I don't remember them either coolhand
[19:11:35] <CoolHand> I used to be able to quote every sketch I think...
[19:11:36] <cmn32480> now I'm gonna have to pull out the Monty Python's Flying Circus DVD's and find that skit
[19:11:49] <cmn32480> I have the whole series on DVD box set
