[06:05:57] <SirFinkus> well, that was about a shitty a day as one could have
[06:06:07] <SirFinkus> someone give me some levity
[06:39:44] <Runaway1956> For SirFinkus - https://www.youtube.com
[06:39:45] <Addyi> ^ 03Telephone Operator Message - YouTube
[06:40:51] <SirFinkus> reminds me of a stern bit, they called a sex line or something using tty
[06:42:18] <Runaway1956> Hell, I didn't even know they HAD messaging back in those days
[06:42:39] <Runaway1956> I thought it would be a telegraph
[06:43:20] <SirFinkus> probably fake, like most shit
[06:46:33] * SirFinkus beers himself
[06:46:57] <SirFinkus> so how you been Runaway1956, you cantankerous cunt?
[06:47:18] <SirFinkus> wanna argue about somethign?
[06:47:36] <Runaway1956> Ehhhh - just gettin' by here
[06:47:47] <SirFinkus> aye
[06:48:09] * Runaway1956 wonders when the kids will grow up and get lives of their own
[06:48:22] <SirFinkus> and more importantly, get off your lawn
[06:48:23] <Runaway1956> Out of three kids, only one is independent
[06:48:43] <Runaway1956> and neither of the stepsons are independent
[06:49:13] <SirFinkus> I'm not independent at an embarrassing age, working on it though
[06:49:28] * Runaway1956 simply can't imagine going home to Mommy for advice, money, food, or whatever
[06:49:55] <SirFinkus> oh hell no
[06:49:59] <SirFinkus> I go to my dad for that
[06:50:11] <SirFinkus> but he kind of needs me too, so I guess it isn't so bad
[06:50:17] <Runaway1956> LOL - I was FAR LESS LIKELY to ask Dad for help, than to ask Mom
[06:50:38] <SirFinkus> not really like that, I help him out a lot too
[06:50:43] <SirFinkus> he helps me out far more
[06:50:52] <SirFinkus> but the ways I help him out, only I can really do
[06:51:20] <Runaway1956> The additional problem is, the wife needs to feel needed, so she encourages her babies to come to her for anything and everything
[06:52:07] <Runaway1956> All of which make my more successful son look more awesome than he probably is
[06:53:30] <SirFinkus> I was shooting skeet all this afternoon and my shoulder is sore, does this mean I'm a pussy?
[06:53:58] <Runaway1956> Well, the answer takes some careful consideration . . .
[06:54:11] <Runaway1956> Yes, you're a pussy, but the skeet shooting has little to do with that
[06:54:18] <SirFinkus> dohoho
[06:54:55] <Runaway1956> Hell, trying to contain small explosions against your shoulder will give you a sore shoulder, no matter how manly you might be
[06:55:00] <SirFinkus> I know I'll never get a mossberg now though
[06:55:14] <SirFinkus> my thumb is all fucked up from the retarded safety
[06:55:36] <Runaway1956> Mmmmm . . . what model is it?
[06:55:51] <SirFinkus> 500
[06:55:52] <Runaway1956> I don't recall any problems with mossbergs
[06:56:20] <SirFinkus> the safety is up on top of the grip, and I guess the way I hold it it hits my thumb when it fires
[06:56:26] <SirFinkus> so it skinned the top of it pretty badly
[06:56:48] <SirFinkus> maybe I'm holding it wrong, but I don't think so
[06:56:57] <SirFinkus> think it's just an ergonomics issue with me
[06:57:01] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - The Caster Semenya Debate - http://sylnt.us - consternating-caster
[06:57:03] <Runaway1956> I see . . .
[06:58:29] <Runaway1956> Maybe - to long, or to short a stock? The length of the stock affects how you hold the weapon
[06:58:38] <SirFinkus> I have long arms
[06:58:46] <SirFinkus> shirts never fit me properly
[06:59:28] <SirFinkus> if I ever get a shotgun, I'll just get the other choice in the price range
[06:59:28] <Runaway1956> Put a two-inch butt plate on the stock, see if that changes anything. You already have two screws holding a thin butt plate, right?
[06:59:41] <SirFinkus> the 870
[06:59:47] <SirFinkus> it's my friend's gun
[07:00:03] <Runaway1956> Talked to a gunsmith?
[07:00:10] <SirFinkus> friend's gun
[07:00:32] <Runaway1956> Yeah, but you can talk to gunsmiths and/or salemen about your freind's gun
[07:00:41] <SirFinkus> well, I just shot it today
[07:01:04] <SirFinkus> I don't fuck with shotguns usually, only other stuff I've shot has been side by side or single shot
[07:01:15] <Runaway1956> Until I learn something different, I'm going to say your long arms don't wrap around a short stock properly
[07:01:23] <SirFinkus> probably right
[07:01:39] <SirFinkus> but I don't like where the safety is anyway
[07:02:00] <Runaway1956> I prefer safeties to be located above my thumb, on the side
[07:02:20] <SirFinkus> yeah, I don't the 870 is like that either
[07:02:32] <SirFinkus> but the mossberg just has it in a bad fucking spot
[07:02:42] <Runaway1956> Or, in the case of a bolt action, the safety is integral to the bolt, operated by the thumb
[07:03:09] <SirFinkus> I never use the safety on any of my bolt actions
[07:03:26] <SirFinkus> all milsurp so ymmv
[07:03:36] <Runaway1956> If the bolt isn't pulled back, there is no need for the safety
[07:03:59] <SirFinkus> it doesn't feel like you gain much time having a round chambered
[07:04:31] <SirFinkus> I suppose I don't hunt, so I shoot pretty much right after I load the thing
[07:04:31] <Runaway1956> There is that - but the noise of chambering a round might startle the target
[07:05:11] <Runaway1956> Paper targets and skeet don't startle very easily though
[07:06:02] <SirFinkus> I like safeties on pistols though
[07:06:14] <SirFinkus> with the 1911 being the best I've used
[07:06:20] <SirFinkus> just in the perfect place
[07:06:36] <SirFinkus> I haven't shot a pistol with better ergonomics
[07:06:41] <Runaway1956> Well, not very many people like having their balls blown away, so safeties on pistols are almost a necessity
[07:08:22] <SirFinkus> cz 82 feels good to me too
[07:08:52] <SirFinkus> favorite that I've shot, ergonomics wise
[07:09:12] <Runaway1956> The original 1911's seemed like a handful to me when I was young -
[07:09:26] <SirFinkus> if I carried, I'd probably carry a cz 82
[07:09:40] <Runaway1956> As I grew, my hands also grew, today, anything smaller feels like a toy
[07:09:41] <SirFinkus> not the greatest round, but I shoot it the best
[07:10:04] <SirFinkus> it's basically .380
[07:10:33] <Runaway1956> Nothing wrong with a .380 - it has about as much knockdown as a 9mm
[07:10:51] <SirFinkus> it's actually 9x18 makarov
[07:10:52] <Runaway1956> if I'm not mistaken
[07:10:59] <SirFinkus> naw, it's quite a bit weaker
[07:11:24] <Runaway1956> The .45 was designed for knockdown power - so it's an entirely different weapon
[07:11:54] <SirFinkus> but I can put 2-3 rounds in a 8 inch circle at 21ish yards in the same time I could put 1 .45 acp in the same place
[07:12:24] <SirFinkus> pretty much all my best groups have been with that gun, it just works for me
[07:12:45] <Runaway1956> The experts will tell you, whatever works is what you use
[07:13:05] <SirFinkus> my 1911 is also a little finicky
[07:13:12] <Runaway1956> Anyone who is dogmatic about their choice of weapons ain't really very smart
[07:13:40] <SirFinkus> my philosophy would be to carry whatever you shoot best with
[07:13:49] <Runaway1956> uh-huh
[07:14:13] <SirFinkus> maybe tweak that a bit if it's some ruger .22
[07:14:54] * Runaway1956 never fell in love with the Ruger . . . any of them
[07:15:11] <Runaway1956> They are popular with steampunks though
[07:15:15] <SirFinkus> really?
[07:15:17] <SirFinkus> weird
[07:15:51] <Runaway1956> WTF - I'm thinking Luger - sorry
[07:15:59] <SirFinkus> I like the xd-9, too big to carry though
[07:16:03] <Runaway1956> kick me a couple times, LMAO
[07:16:20] <SirFinkus> lugers are neat, but kind of meh to shoot
[07:16:23] <SirFinkus> just weird
[07:17:14] <SirFinkus> I bet the c 96 is popular among those folks too
[07:18:00] <SirFinkus> shooting one of those is a real head trip
[07:18:56] <SirFinkus> han solo's blaster was based on one

[15:42:16] <Runaway1956> bytram - my 780TI does about 200,000, CMN's 970 seems to do real close to 300,000 - I'll make a guess that the 1070 will do around 350,000 to 380,000 and the 1080 probably over 400,000
[15:42:32] <Runaway1956> That's just a guess of course, I've seen no posts about them on the internet

[15:48:14] <Runaway1956> Alright, I examined his post a little closer
[15:48:24] <cmn32480> the gpu is pulling about 325kppd
[15:48:38] <Runaway1956> half million PPD on some WU's, on one WU it says slightly over a million PPD
[15:48:52] <Runaway1956> which makes sense, some work units are time soncuming, others aren't
[15:49:23] <Runaway1956> Got it, CMN - 325 - that's good to know for comparison
[15:49:39] <Runaway1956> looks like the 1080 just about doubles your 970
[15:49:39] <cmn32480> that is for right now... I don't know if I can find a average for just that piece

[15:58:39] <Bytram> I bought a JanSport backback at a going out of business sale about a dozen years ago and has held up like a champ...
[15:59:08] <Bytram> but there's no other identifying markings on it other than 'JanSport'
[15:59:21] <cmn32480> I've had Jansport packs since I was a kid.. but never for a laptop
[15:59:58] <Bytram> there's a pouch/sleeve on the innermost panel (against the back) that worked quite well for me
[16:00:01] <Runaway1956> .me sighs
[16:00:07] <Bytram> lotsa pockets with velcro

[16:00:25] * Runaway1956 should install Linux on the kid
[16:00:47] <Bytram> and pouches on either side; one for a water bottle, and the other with a connector for earphones that connects to a jack on one of the straps =)

[16:04:32] <Bytram> not a single identifying marking other than JanSport :(
[16:04:43] <Bytram> one nice feature it has that I'd not noticed before...
[16:05:33] <Bytram> there's a mesh fabric liner where the back of the backback meats your back -- breatheable relief on a sticky day
[16:08:26] <Bytram> the one you posted has a detailed look at the back of the pack: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com
[16:09:18] <Bytram> I can see the mesh around the periphery, but it looks like it has a bit of a frame to it, albeit ribbed so it offers some breatheability
[16:10:50] <Bytram> aha, they call it the: HUB (Hybrid Unibody Backpanel) for ultimate comfort
[16:11:01] <Bytram> all-in-all looks quite nice
[16:11:21] <Bytram> I've no experience with that manufacturer, but it looks like it hits all the things that I would look for in a pack.
[16:11:50] <Bytram> cmn32480: best of luck if you should chose to get it; would love to hear how it works out for ya.

[18:46:55] <AndyTheAbsurd> the old one or the new one?
[18:47:00] <SirFinkus> I like the proton pack effects
[18:47:15] <AndyTheAbsurd> most of the bitching about the new one is "oh my god, they changed the characters from men to women!"
[18:47:23] * Runaway1956 can't be assed to watch a remake of a mediocre comedic movie unless he can load the extra asses on the truck for the mission to RNC and DNC
[18:47:47] <AndyTheAbsurd> which...whatever. What's the point in giving a shit about the gender of characters in a movie that is neither romance nor porn?
[18:49:35] <Runaway1956> I guess guys only have to worry about slime soaking into their assholes, and woman have an extra orifice to clean after being slimed?
[18:49:43] <Runaway1956> Details like that can be important.

[22:20:32] <chromas> turn it off and we'll find out :)
[22:20:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly has a webserver running as well. most every box we have does.
[22:20:57] <chromas> I heard it was trendy to use mysql for ipc
[22:22:15] <Deucalion> yup - I see an apache instance running. Used for the mailman list maintenance I think. The IRC bouncer has its own inbuilt httpd as well. But that seems well behaved.
[22:22:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> likely for webmail as well

[22:26:10] <xof> two months ago there was similar attack
[22:26:13] <Deucalion> random psycho or terrorist.... who knows at this point?
[22:26:36] <xof> random muslim i think
[22:26:54] <Deucalion> Early reports are frequently incorrect
[22:28:25] <xof> im pretty much sure he was muslim ;)
[22:29:17] <Deucalion> Even if he wasn't, I am sure "intelligence" will find he had links to either ISIS or Russia somehow.... not sure which is supposed to be the bigger bogey man at the moment.
[22:33:19] <chromas> whites are the bogeyman in america right now
[22:34:32] <chromas> any ISIS affiliation or Muslim...osity gets played down now
[22:40:52] <Deucalion> The Turkey shenanigans over the weekend were ~interesting~ also.... suspiciously ineffective coup attempt by the military there. If one were inclined to wear hats of a metallic nature, one might suspect it was engineered to fail and the fallout be lots of less than avid Erdogan supporters be ousted from their posts across govt, police and judiciary. But that would just be swivel-eyed speculation of course. :D
[22:42:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> you're thinking too small. it's also a perfect excuse to start implementing martial law.
[22:42:30] <Deucalion> chromas, I thought it was the cops in the firing line in the USA right now.
[22:43:12] <chromas> but only the white ones
[22:43:32] * chromas recalls the chant "Kill all the cops! Kill all their kids too!"
[22:43:59] <chromas> I guess it wasn't really a chant
[22:44:13] <Deucalion> TMB, Erdogan has long been vocal about his desire to become despot / dictator and move the country away from its secular governance. Talking about re-introducing the death penalty now. That would royally fuck up their EU membership bid :D
[22:45:52] <Deucalion> I wish to say nothing ~bad~ about Erdogan per se. I do not know what is best for Turkey. (And besides, other EU journos have been hung out to dry by their respective countries for bad-mouthing the guy).

[22:51:28] <Deucalion> Probably the 1st two. That last one... very much verboten I'm afraid. I inadvertently sang the "banned" verse of the German anthem whilst watching a Germany vs. ?? soccer match in Berlin - I received some very hard stares and tuts. Anything Nazi is absolutely jumped on with extreme prejudice.
[22:51:31] <chromas> "You know, if we were in Sweden you couldn't say no"
[22:52:07] <chromas> not if you're a Muslim though
[22:52:52] <Deucalion> Didn't that wiki bloke have a problem with no meaning yes or something in Sweden... I forget the details... must be at least a week since the multi-fingered on last massaged his ego out of an embassy window.
[22:53:31] <Deucalion> chromas, what has a turban to so with muslims?
[22:53:41] <chromas> don't they wear 'em?
[22:53:43] <Deucalion> s/do/do/
[22:53:45] <chromas> well whatever their hats are
[22:53:51] <Deucalion> ye gads
[22:54:49] xof is now known as veem
[22:54:49] <chromas> I'm not a hat expert
[22:54:58] <Deucalion> just call them all rag heads desert lizards or something and be done with it - no need for any accuracy... amirite!!! They're all after our jerrrbs!
[22:55:11] <Deucalion> /sarc off
[22:56:28] <chromas> nah, they're just taking all the welfare
[22:56:46] <chromas> and complaining about the free wifi being too slow
[22:57:24] <Deucalion> AFAIK - turbans are are associated with Sikhism - they may carry a ceremonial dagger in their sock at times, but their not exactly a world disrupting religion of late. Although they have had their moments in times gone by (as can be said for all religions really)
[23:01:48] <chromas> Looks like they're also popular in India and a bunch of other countries in the area
[23:07:48] <Deucalion> I know less than I would like... most of what I do know is from historical context around the partitioning of India post the Brit Empire and living in a predominantly Sikh area whilst studying at Uni. Very accommodating and accepting people - mono-theistic religion IIRC, with a very strong "every one created equal" moral as opposed to the Hindu caste system that was also prevalent during that partition... and still is today as it goes. Kinda gn
[23:07:48] <Deucalion> arly that partitioning... but then so was the random drawing of straight lines to define countries all over the middle east and northern africa when the brits and french got out of dodge. Any cursory examination of material about Versaille treaties and the like quickly shows a complete lack of forethought and understanding od local affairs... in hindsight of course.
[23:09:36] <Deucalion> Oh wait... lack of foresight... hmm.. didn;t that happen more recently where we bombed the current regime out of existence and failed to plan how to reconstruct society in a certain country. Might have been during the Bush era... it all blurs into one really.
[23:10:14] <chromas> Maybe we did that on purpose
[23:10:18] <chromas> Stirring the pot
[23:11:19] <chromas> We could give our balding eagle mascot a troll face
[23:11:21] <Deucalion> De-stabilising the middle east ~accidentally~ ~repeatedly~ - nah, never do that on purpose.... it's just a coincidence it keeps happening.
[23:13:05] <Deucalion> I do wonder what will become of the sand based principalities when we do finally wean ourselves of the oily teat. Nothing much for anyone to be bothered with de-stabilising at that point I suppose, Hey-ho... depressing really, I'll probably be dead by then ~shurg~

[23:23:19] <Deucalion> Short sighted. What we need to be doing is looking ahead to satisfying the next need. Those clouds all need somewhere to co-mingle. I suggest we crowdfund "sky" services (there may be trademark issues with that word) - so how about - "Atmosphere" - integrate your clouds in our super resilient Atmosphere service / platform as a platform service platform delivery service platform.

Well... until all currency becomes meaningless... but by that time it would all be spent anyway on frivolous frippery... and at least you can say you partied before the armageddon!

[23:48:07] <chromas> Use all the sandbox technologies

[23:50:08] <Deucalion> And put the sandboxes in dockers then put the dockers in individual virtualised machines.... nested virtual machines preferably... and every layer should have at least 7 firewalls and 7 anonymous proxies between it and any adjacent layer. Only way to be untraceable... GUARANTEED! **guarantee not an actual guarantee

[23:50:59] <chromas> yours was better though
[23:52:07] <chromas> arora kinda looks like qupzilla
[23:52:30] <chromas> I guess they all look alike
[23:52:36] * chromas <- browsist
[23:53:03] <Deucalion> Well of course you have bridge all the virtual machine and docker instance NICs into just one VLAN and enable desktop integration between them all so copy / paste works! But that's OK - that doesn't compromise any of the security measures. I read that on the internet so it must be right. Just don't trust TOR - that's well dodgy today - someone else left the project so it's owned by the NSA now for sure.
[23:53:21] <Deucalion> Best to use Riffle instead.. must be good - came out of MIT after all.
