[23:59:57] <Ethanol-fueled> The deduction is that there's some kind of competition with current draw which sometimes reaches an "all-or-nothing" state
[23:59:34] <Ethanol-fueled> when I switch my heater on full-blast, the power returns...temporarily.
[23:59:13] <Ethanol-fueled> I live in a hourse converted into a few units. The power in mine goes off almost every 5-10 minutes while another has a window AC unit running continuously and she lever loses power
[23:58:31] <Ethanol-fueled> Fucking cheap-ass landlord

[23:35:16] <SirFinkus> 1 minute
[23:35:10] <SirFinkus> it's like 2 minutes long
[23:34:17] <Ethanol-fueled> No, can you give a TLDR version?
[23:34:11] <Ethanol-fueled> Back from shower and prepping the wine

[22:46:01] <SirFinkus> I blame the trump tower guy
[22:45:14] <SirFinkus> I think they lost my speakers
[22:45:12] <Knig_Knog> OOh, it made Zerohedge
[22:44:12] <SirFinkus> looked average from the front, but when she turns to the side, jesus
[22:43:49] <SirFinkus> holy shit the weather girl
[22:43:29] <Knig_Knog> When his legs went up it looked like Peanuts when the character's laughing so hard he falls back and his legs are up
[22:42:58] <SirFinkus> might be the greatest tackle I've seen
[22:42:44] <SirFinkus> that fucking tackle
[22:42:41] <Knig_Knog> Car-chases never get old, Deucalion
[22:42:30] * exec sardonically embiggens a dire ear of celerons with Deucalion
[22:42:28] <cmn32480> ~gnight Deucalion
[22:41:50] <Deucalion> Anyways, off to bed for me.
[22:41:20] <Deucalion> Ah well... media circus over. Wish he got to the top... just because I find it funny people do random shit and the rest of society goes "WOAH.... this has to be stopped.. because... umm... because... well it's random and disturbs my otherwise predictable life" :D
[22:40:25] <SirFinkus> had him upside down
[22:40:17] <SirFinkus> lmao
[22:40:09] <Knig_Knog> They showed it
[22:40:06] <Knig_Knog> Hahahah
[22:39:59] <cmn32480> how high did he get?
[22:39:54] <SirFinkus> dumbass didn't even throw his fliers
[22:39:52] <Knig_Knog> hahaha
[22:39:44] <SirFinkus> he could have had THERMITE PAINT in that backpack
[22:39:25] <Knig_Knog> And destroying all of Trump's tax returns in the process
[22:39:01] <Deucalion> true dat
[22:38:46] <Knig_Knog> Deucalion, he could have detonated the bomb in his backpack, causing the Trump tower to explode and collapse under freefall, prompting war in Iran.
[22:38:31] <SirFinkus> lol
[22:38:30] <SirFinkus> I was traveling, officer, as is my right Can you prove I was "climbing" anything? am I being detained?"
[22:38:30] <SirFinkus> "Bro Team Pill @BroTeamPill
[22:38:05] <Deucalion> high 5s all round for the brave services heroes that risked their lives to save the guys lives and LITERALLY thousands of other new yorkers. Heroes one and all.
[22:37:31] <Knig_Knog> probably has all that shit wrapped around his neck and is dying right now
[22:37:17] <cmn32480> that the whole world can't see them beat his ass
[22:36:54] <Deucalion> convenient :D
[22:36:48] <Knig_Knog> Fucking idiot.
[22:36:43] <Knig_Knog> Yeah, right after they cut the camera
[22:36:37] <SirFinkus> BOOK HIM
[22:36:34] <Deucalion> damn I missed it... they pull him inside?
[22:36:13] <cmn32480> the Trump tower climber?
[22:35:57] <SirFinkus> "this is not a terrorist"
[22:35:45] <SirFinkus> that guy
[22:35:44] <Knig_Knog> backing up traffic and wasting police resources can cost thousands if not millions of dollars in losses.
[22:35:41] <cmn32480> no thanks...
[22:35:36] <SirFinkus> oh FUCK
[22:35:24] <SirFinkus> works on my machine ™️
[22:35:09] * exec inadequately writes a fanfic featuring yo mama of windows 95 about knuckleheads
[22:35:07] <cmn32480> ~gday knuckleheads
[22:34:47] <Knig_Knog> When they finally get him...what's he gonna do? Be all cheeky in front of the Judge about all of the economic damage he caused the city and get a slap on the wrist?
[22:34:39] <Deucalion> Live Stream ends at 6.30pm :(
[22:33:37] <Deucalion> Stream died for me
[22:33:32] <Knig_Knog> Hahahah, lasso and hog-tie that varmint
[22:33:18] <SirFinkus> what the fuck is this?
[22:33:14] <Knig_Knog> He's one of her operatives, the same one who killed that leaker
[22:33:13] <SirFinkus> "are they going to try and rope him?"
[22:32:43] <Knig_Knog> It's a distraction from Hillary News
[22:32:16] <SirFinkus> what a hero
[22:32:11] <SirFinkus> "no political message, just shameless self promotion"
[22:31:52] <SirFinkus> lmao
[22:31:40] <Knig_Knog> Probably yet another obnoxious California Expat
[22:31:31] <Knig_Knog> "Steve from Virginia"
[22:30:53] <Knig_Knog> Don't grab the rope!
[22:30:45] <Deucalion> That's because climbing isn't a conveyor belt. You take your time when climbing.
[22:30:26] <Knig_Knog> it's the NOOSE TO HANG HIM WITH
[22:30:12] <SirFinkus> IT'S A ROPE
[22:30:09] <SirFinkus> "this device"
[22:29:38] <Deucalion> Newp. Climbers regularly climb for 6 hours, kip on the rockface then climb again. It's no biggy.
[22:29:16] * Knig_Knog can't even last 2 minutes on the rock-climbing conveyor belt
[22:28:55] <SirFinkus> I mean, what he's doing isn't easy, but if he's in shape, that'd be no problem
[22:28:39] <Deucalion> 2 and a half hours! Oh my word!
[22:28:38] <SirFinkus> 2 hours of physical activity?
[22:27:39] <Knig_Knog> IF he falls they'll cut the cameras but we can see it on LiveLeak
[22:26:22] <Knig_Knog> It's definitely gonna be some heavy-handed protest message about Trump being racis' 'n' sheeit.
[22:25:36] * SirFinkus rolls eyes
[22:25:33] <SirFinkus> RISKING THEIR LIVES to clean windows
[22:25:21] <SirFinkus> I guess window washers are heros now
[22:25:13] <SirFinkus> because they're in a window washing bucket?
[22:25:00] <SirFinkus> RISKING THEIR LIVES
[22:23:04] <SirFinkus> and you can see through the other ones
[22:23:00] <SirFinkus> he's right up agains them though
[22:22:48] <Deucalion> look mirrored / smoked from outside in
[22:22:30] <SirFinkus> how can he not know? those are windows, he can surely see through them
[22:21:52] -!- crutchy has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[22:21:50] <SirFinkus> which begs the question, why didn't they just park one of those above him instead of fucking with the windows?
[22:21:17] <SirFinkus> naw, they got a window washing gondola there
[22:21:03] <Deucalion> Anyone have his cell #? Txt him... GO LEFT YOUNG MAN! GO LEFT!
[22:20:16] <SirFinkus> YOU DON'T NEED TO ZOOM IN ON THE RADAR
[22:20:09] <SirFinkus> BITCH WE CAN SEE IT'S NOT RAINING
[22:20:03] <Deucalion> Ohh.. yeah.. forgot.. not conforming to normal behaviour
[22:19:43] <Deucalion> Why do the gathered masses want to cheer to stop the guy? Can't see he's doing any harm. Leave him too it... he'll stop at the top :D
[22:19:13] <SirFinkus> "at some point this is going to come to an end" insightful commentary
[22:17:31] <Deucalion> just pitch the tent, crawl in and have a kip
[22:17:27] <Knig_Knog> Hahahah, that would be great - he's probably got some snacks and more water in there.
[22:17:14] <Deucalion> HAHA - epic
[22:17:04] <SirFinkus> what if he has one of those climber's tents?
[22:17:01] <Knig_Knog> It would be pretty awesome if he pissed down the building.
[22:16:55] <SirFinkus> oh man
[22:16:10] <Deucalion> Putting the emergency services' lives at risk????
[22:16:09] <SirFinkus> no cop's lives are at risk
[22:16:03] <SirFinkus> BULLSHIT
[22:15:58] <Knig_Knog> THey could raise it and scoop him up
[22:15:57] <SirFinkus> was up there for like 3 days
[22:15:50] <SirFinkus> like that guy in the tree
[22:15:47] <Knig_Knog> The cops have a basket on the left
[22:15:41] <xhedit> he needs to tomb raider that shit
[22:15:31] <Deucalion> TRAVERSE LEFT DUDE!!
[22:15:19] <Knig_Knog> If he gives up he's a pussy
[22:14:59] <Knig_Knog> They're still not going to reach out and grab him
[22:14:14] <Deucalion> around the corner and up the louvers
[22:14:03] <Knig_Knog> Hahahahaha
[22:13:57] <SirFinkus> imagine if he pulled a noose out
[22:13:51] <SirFinkus> oh god
[22:13:46] <Deucalion> evading the police... just shoot him
[22:13:37] <SirFinkus> oh he's fucked now
[22:13:29] <Knig_Knog> He's moving away, he's trying to evade
[22:13:07] <Deucalion> lol "enough to hold his weight"... one of those suckers could lift a tonne
[22:12:40] <SirFinkus> how long until the sun sets?
[22:12:32] <SirFinkus> I'm not sure
[22:12:25] <SirFinkus> is this guy an experienced climber?
[22:12:18] <SirFinkus> what are is the guy using to climb?
[22:12:10] <SirFinkus> hey guys
[22:11:56] <Knig_Knog> Can't wait to see what smart-ass comment trump is going to make about it.
[22:11:48] <SirFinkus> then this cheeky fuck pulls out a grappling hook and continues
[22:10:59] <Deucalion> the guy's fine. Clearly a climber. 3 points of contact at any time.
[22:10:53] <Knig_Knog> I was hoping for Avon Calling (blasting it out with a short-barreled shotgun used to blast locks off of doors)
[22:09:49] <SirFinkus> that'd be great
[22:09:46] <SirFinkus> or drop it on him
[22:09:42] <SirFinkus> if they break it while moving it
[22:09:19] <Deucalion> 5 live feeds?? which to choose?
[22:09:18] <SirFinkus> clever cops
[22:09:15] <SirFinkus> oooh shit
[22:09:05] <SirFinkus> they can just break out another one
[22:08:59] <SirFinkus> he can't move very fast
[22:08:39] <SirFinkus> the newscasters are talking breathlessly about "officer safety"
[22:08:34] <Knig_Knog> Even if the cops break that window he could always move sidewards onto the other facet
[22:08:20] <SirFinkus> for reasons
[22:08:18] <SirFinkus> they've deployed a swat team too
[22:08:11] <Deucalion> ok... I should go to bed, but tuning in
[22:07:58] <Deucalion> why? perhaps a few pavements where he may go splat for sure... but whole areas? :D
[22:07:55] <SirFinkus> lol they're STILL trying to break that window
[22:07:54] <Knig_Knog> Hahah those cops trying to knock the window out
[22:07:26] <SirFinkus> parts of manhattan are shut down now
[22:07:08] <Deucalion> HAHA - how mission impossible
[22:07:03] <yo_momma> ^✓ 03WABC News Live Streaming Video | abc7ny.com
[22:07:02] <SirFinkus> http://abc7ny.com
[22:06:54] <SirFinkus> some guy is climbing trump tower with suction cups
[22:06:36] <Deucalion> I actually have no idea what you're talking about... some breaking news thing?
[22:06:29] <Knig_Knog> The cops need to get Avon Calling on that glass
[22:05:41] <Deucalion> Musta been reading about the blokes here in the UK that decided to climb onto Corbyn's home roof to further their point about guys getting a bad deal on child custody etc. during a divorce.
[22:05:39] <SirFinkus> only thing that could happen is if a window breaks, but he's got two windows
[22:04:57] <Knig_Knog> But he does know what he's doing.
[22:04:48] <Knig_Knog> I'm going to laugh if that dumbass falls.
[22:04:28] <Deucalion> only to protect him from himself I'd imagine. He'll probably be killed to death whilst being dragged over broken glass or dropped off the building during the "rescue" attempt no doubt. But it will be in his own best interests :D
[22:04:20] <SirFinkus> WOW
[22:04:19] <SirFinkus> the eyewitness just happens to be from the state that trump is in now
[22:04:03] <SirFinkus> bizarre series of coincidences
[22:03:48] <SirFinkus> lol
[22:03:07] <SirFinkus> they've been whacking on it for like 10 minutes
[22:02:59] <SirFinkus> but they're hilariously incompetent
[22:02:54] <SirFinkus> or trying to
[22:02:49] <SirFinkus> well, they're breaking the window above him
[22:02:35] <Knig_Knog> and if he plummets to his death Jew families will sue for emotional distress
[22:02:21] <Knig_Knog> They can't grab him without risking his life
[22:01:43] <SirFinkus> if this guy circumvents this clever trap, he's an american hero
[22:01:06] <Knig_Knog> cockstarer
[22:01:03] <Knig_Knog> He's an expert
[22:00:42] <SirFinkus> how can he tell from the back?
[22:00:27] <SirFinkus> "he's well strapped"
[21:59:32] <SirFinkus> "no, he doesn't look tired at all"
[21:59:24] <SirFinkus> lol newscaster shitting on the dumb bitch newscaster
[21:58:41] <Knig_Knog> Oh, right
[21:58:36] <SirFinkus> moving glass
[21:58:24] <Knig_Knog> That's a good point - what other uses besides climbing glass could they be used for?
[21:57:59] <SirFinkus> and I highly doubt "mountain climbers" use suction cups
[21:57:41] <SirFinkus> they just explained suction cups
[21:57:35] <SirFinkus> lmao
[21:57:14] <Knig_Knog> Is he some bored rich kid or something?
[21:56:51] <Knig_Knog> I dunno...there are people who can afford to do that?
[21:56:43] <SirFinkus> why do they need a swat team?
[21:56:38] <SirFinkus> the cops too
[21:56:32] <SirFinkus> props to the guy though, one guy shutting down parts of manhattan is pretty impressive
[21:56:18] <Knig_Knog> For what it is, yeah, the newscasters are dramatic as fuck
[21:56:00] <SirFinkus> so dramatic
[21:55:05] <Knig_Knog> Yeah.
[21:54:58] <Knig_Knog> trying to "raise awareness" of Trump's racissssm
[21:54:54] <SirFinkus> I'm assuming you're watching this too?
[21:54:10] <SirFinkus> the weather girl just explained how night works
[21:53:58] <Knig_Knog> It's gonna be some libtard trying to send a "message"

[19:14:46] <n1> there are other ways im sure, but couldn't tell you how
[19:13:55] <n1> that would be the suggested way of doing it
[19:13:34] <idxt> maybe I will do that
[19:13:01] <idxt> well, thanks cmn32480
[19:12:54] <idxt> bummer. If only my vpn provider would offer a proxy service
[19:12:05] <cmn32480> only way that I_I know to do it in Windows is to use a VM w/ a VPN.
[19:11:27] <idxt> but I will denfinitely implement that in my fedora
[19:11:09] <idxt> yeah, I was reading that, and gave me an idea. Thing is I work on windows or mac
[19:10:44] <cmn32480> typically, A VPN will force all traffic through it, not just the browser, unless it is destined for the local network

[19:08:19] <idxt> The background is I would like to not get my browsing activity logged
[19:07:16] <idxt> and only the application. is that possible?
[19:07:03] <idxt> tunnel it through a VPN
[19:06:37] <idxt> the thing is I want to secure an application, specifically a browser

[18:13:29] * mecctro argh matey
[18:13:11] <mecctro> for me
[18:13:08] <mecctro> Rum or whiskey
[18:12:39] * Runaway1956 prefers Scotch over wodka
[18:12:25] <mecctro> there's some tea in the vodka
[18:12:13] <Runaway1956> there's some tea in the sugar
[18:12:08] <mecctro> don't forget vodka
[18:11:59] * Runaway1956 pours iced tea and it's sweeter than a bee's ass
[18:11:58] <cmn32480> water.. then back to bed w/ ya
[18:11:43] <Runaway1956> fek me . . . something woke me up, I need a drink. choices are cofee, water, gatorade, soda, iced tea
[18:03:16] <janrinok> well, that too I suppose
[18:02:36] <mecctro> +1
[18:02:23] <cmn32480> I redad that as "I could feel it shitting a little"
[18:01:29] * janrinok thinks that it is a good job cmn balanced the force, I could feel it shifting a little then...
[17:56:58] * cmn32480 goes for more coffeee to restore balance to the force
[17:53:58] <janrinok> time for a cup of tea - brb
[17:52:49] * mecctro fingerbangs printer port
[17:52:37] * mecctro restarts printer
[17:52:05] * cmn32480 starts the clock for hold timer

[17:50:38] * mecctro *shudders*
[17:50:36] <janrinok> they have as much control of their mouths as you do your fingers...?
[17:50:34] <mecctro> hebrew
[17:50:11] <janrinok> gotcha, makes sense now
[17:50:00] <cmn32480> like my typosing
[17:49:53] <cmn32480> diddferent language
[17:49:25] <janrinok> I could never work out the pronounciation for Sioux either, until I started groking Westerns
[17:48:58] * mecctro wipes salty tears
[17:48:45] * cmn32480 hands mecctro some sympathy
[17:48:13] <janrinok> me too - but I'm also not very bright
[17:48:06] <mecctro> I was born in Arkansas, I can't understand a lot of the shit they say
[17:48:00] <cmn32480> granted.. I was a child at the time... but still
[17:47:43] <cmn32480> so did I!
[17:47:35] <janrinok> I spent years thinking it it was pronounced Ar-Kansas.
[17:47:29] <cmn32480> deep south alabama or Mississippi
[17:47:16] <n1> janrinok, indeed.
[17:47:07] <mecctro> I can't even understand people in Arkansas
[17:47:05] <janrinok> Lots of people would prefer to forget it, too :~)
[17:46:36] <n1> Kosovo is the country i couldn't remember.
[17:45:48] <janrinok> yep, newfies are hard to understand. Spent quite a while in Happy Valley.
[17:45:36] <mecctro> that shit is cringy
[17:45:29] <mecctro> oh yea,
[17:45:08] <xhedit> could be worse, they could be speaking newfoundlandish
[17:45:07] <cmn32480> and neither do we.
[17:44:38] <janrinok> we don't even know what each other are saying when we are speaking the same language!
[17:44:22] <cmn32480> no different then the different dialects spoken in different places in the us
[17:43:54] <janrinok> and if it is Scottish English, do you mean Glaswegian, the outer Hebrides, or what?
[17:43:53] <xhedit> gaelic spelling is annoying
[17:43:43] <cmn32480> xhedit - correct.. keeps people from increasing their own karma
[17:43:38] <mecctro> hysterical sounding to me
[17:43:34] * n1 is trying to remember a country that exists
[17:43:32] <mecctro> Gaelic
[17:43:27] <mecctro> only if you turn your camera on xhedit
[17:43:20] <janrinok> do you mean Scottish English, or Scottish Gaelic?
[17:43:05] <xhedit> no self loving allowed
[17:42:55] <xhedit> xhedit++
[17:42:54] <xhedit> hmm
[17:42:12] <Bender> karma - xhedit: 2
[17:42:12] <n1> xhedit++
[17:42:09] <mecctro> Scottish sounds hysterical
[17:42:04] <janrinok> yep, loads more to go yet :-)
[17:41:48] <janrinok> You can even select Welsh, Gaelic or Breton on your computer
[17:41:46] <xhedit> don't forget transnistria
[17:41:12] <janrinok> And in northen France, you have the Bretons who also have their own celtic language. As do the Welsh, Cornish, Irish and Scots
[17:40:58] <mecctro> lol
[17:40:54] * cmn32480 goes back in his hole
[17:40:18] <mecctro> right, and there are a few dialects I believe
[17:40:09] <yo_momma> ^ 03Wiki: Basque language
[17:40:01] <n1> https://en.wikipedia.org
[17:39:58] <janrinok> the basque region straddles both nations, and the language is remotely related to the Celtic languages. However, it is a language in its own right
[17:39:46] <mecctro> I could be completely mistaken, is this making any sense?
[17:39:43] <cmn32480> I believe that the sapanish Basques speak a different dialect of Spanish from the Castillian spoklen by the rest of the country\
[17:39:35] <mecctro> I think it's like 5
[17:39:24] <mecctro> variants*
[17:39:20] <mecctro> then the weird varients therof
[17:39:05] <mecctro> Some old language, on both sides
[17:39:05] <n1> heh
[17:38:56] <janrinok> the French basques or the Spanish Basques?
[17:38:40] <mecctro> ?
[17:38:38] <mecctro> Isn't basque the one where they speak some weird french "dialect"
[17:38:38] <janrinok> yup
[17:38:32] <n1> european history, it's complicated.
[17:37:39] <janrinok> .. and new one's appear fairly often - Ukraine for example
[17:37:07] <n1> there are a few of these situations in 'europe', and i don't have enough knowledge of any of them to explain the origins, be it cyprus, ireland, crimea, basque country
[17:36:54] <mecctro> I'm just surprised being in such a small place for so long, that they wouldn't be getting along better
[17:36:06] <janrinok> In the Greek part, certainly, the northern Turkish part is a mixture of long-time residents and new arrivals
[17:35:24] <mecctro> Have the citizens in Cyprus been there for a lot of generations?
[17:35:14] <n1> it's a big issue for turkey ever joining the eu
[17:34:12] <n1> i have no knowledge of the turkish side, but i'm guessing it's similar, using a different time period for reference
[17:33:45] <janrinok> Greece and Turkey have been at each other's throats forever
[17:33:41] <n1> greek cypriots: turkey invaded our country
[17:33:21] <mecctro> Is there a particular reason why they don't get along?
[17:33:16] <janrinok> like you guys being sent to patrol the beaches in California
[17:33:07] <yo_momma> ^ 03Wiki: United Nations Buffer Zone in Cyprus
[17:33:06] <n1> https://en.wikipedia.org
[17:32:56] <janrinok> It is a very popular tour - quite a few brits have done it, although I don't think we participate in it any more
[17:32:21] <cmn32480> becha that works out as well as the force in the Sudan
[17:31:57] <janrinok> The UN still have a force there to police the dividing line
[17:31:53] <mecctro> Me either cmn32480
[17:31:44] <n1> the only thing i really remember first hand from being there was being told that the turks had free electric for years, because if they cut them off, it would be acknowledging legitimacy of the turkish side
[17:31:39] <cmn32480> I thoguht cyprus was a single country... didn't know it was split
[17:31:29] <janrinok> ... and usually they do not get on at all well with each other
[17:31:28] <mecctro> I wasn't sure if that would declassify it or not, but, I really thought it was smaller than that.
[17:31:13] <janrinok> so you have Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots
[17:30:45] <janrinok> Turkey and Greece
[17:30:37] <n1> the whole north south cyprus divide
[17:30:35] <janrinok> mecctro: it is divided between 2 countries
[17:30:14] <janrinok> Cyprus is 62 miles wide, so doesn't fit the Baltimore/W DC distance
[17:30:01] <mecctro> how so?
[17:29:16] <n1> mecctro, it's complicated....
[17:28:58] <mecctro> I really thought Cyprus was smaller
[17:28:24] <cmn32480> replace Syprus w/ Andorra for mne
[17:27:58] <mecctro> I had 4 as well: VC, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg & Cyprus
[17:27:51] <yo_momma> ^ 03Wiki: European microstates
[17:27:49] <cmn32480> I thoguht Luxembourg would be too big
[17:27:49] <janrinok> https://en.wikipedia.org
[17:27:14] <cmn32480> I had 4...
[17:26:55] <mecctro> google doesn't count either
[17:26:55] <xhedit> I was gonna say monaco but I don't think it's in the eu, i guess it is in europe though
[17:26:42] <janrinok> Cyprus (9,251 km2)
[17:26:40] <janrinok> Luxembourg (2,586 km2) ...
[17:26:39] <janrinok> Andorra (468 km2) ...
[17:26:38] <janrinok> Malta (316 km2) ...
[17:26:37] <janrinok> Liechtenstein (160 km2) ...
[17:26:37] <janrinok> San Marino (61 km2) ...
[17:26:37] <janrinok> Monaco (1.95 km2) ...
[17:26:37] <janrinok> Vatican City (0.44 km2) ...
[17:26:13] <mecctro> there's always plastic surgery
[17:26:03] <xhedit> he's hung like a hamster
[17:25:47] <janrinok> ouch, that hurt
[17:25:46] <cmn32480> That Sealand place off the Coast of the UK
[17:25:40] <mecctro> just like micropenises
[17:25:29] <xhedit> micronations don't count
[17:25:26] <mecctro> lol
[17:25:18] <janrinok> now don't go bringing the US election into this...
[17:24:50] <n1> if we're using what normal people know as a measure of importance...
[17:24:39] <cmn32480> none of whom are currently on IRC
[17:24:16] * cmn32480 can name 3
[17:24:15] <janrinok> how many normal people do you think we have over here?
[17:24:00] <cmn32480> yep... and how many of them can be named by a normal person?
[17:23:31] <mecctro> ;)
[17:23:25] <cmn32480> well... Baltimore IS a shithole....
[17:23:21] <janrinok> the gates are 43.7 miles away? We have countries in Europe smaller than that!
[17:22:46] <mecctro> I would think it would make it the back orifice of Mordor than
[17:22:08] <cmn32480> Washington DC being Mordor
[17:22:01] <cmn32480> IO prefer to think of it as the gates to Mordor....
[17:21:42] <janrinok> ... or not
[17:21:40] <mecctro> the black shire?
[17:21:29] <cmn32480> heh... based on what he is saying he could live in Baltimore....
[17:21:26] <n1> mecctro, last guy on the block... got to be the guilty party for whatever happened
[17:20:50] <janrinok> I think I would rather be known as an arsonist
[17:20:45] <mecctro> Never answer the phone, most of the houses near me are torn down (not so many strangers), and I don't leave the house lol
[17:20:39] <Bender> karma - cmn32480: 64
[17:20:39] <n1> cmn32480++
[17:20:27] * janrinok doesn't expect modern smart phones to make a click anymore...
[17:20:22] <cmn32480> he might be a Pokemon Go gym....
[17:19:54] <janrinok> mecctro - do you get unexpected clicks when you answer the phone, are there strangers standing outside your house, do you have the feeling that you are being followed?
[17:19:40] <mecctro> I wasn't really thinking that far ahead, just seemed too common to be coincidence
[17:18:55] <cmn32480> and with a pattern forming just your luck to be the one they point to for fraud?
[17:18:18] <mecctro> I just don't want my house burning down by proxy
[17:18:00] <n1> i'd say that's a reasonable suspicion if there's a trend
[17:17:25] <mecctro> They*
[17:17:20] <cmn32480> oh... and slightly south northwesterlyish of Shangri-La
[17:17:20] <mecctro> There absolutely dropped in this neighborhood, which was part of why I was suspicious.
[17:16:56] <janrinok> cmn32480, not far from here then
[17:16:53] <n1> mecctro, how have house prices been doing?
[17:16:41] <mecctro> Been 6 house fires in 2 years, all within a block
[17:16:40] <cmn32480> west of the shire, south of mordor, and just over the third hill from Hogwarts
[17:16:23] <mecctro> It's not really a bad town, I just have the suspicion that there is a pyro around, or maybe a lot of people committing insurance fraud
[17:16:06] <janrinok> got it, found it on my map of fairy tale places
[17:15:46] <cmn32480> just left of over there
[17:15:41] <janrinok> absolutely
[17:15:27] <janrinok> mecctro, where's 'here' - it might be a place I try to avoid
[17:15:23] <cmn32480> to be rather cynical about it... better his house thean yours!
[17:14:56] <janrinok> n1: something like that, and I asked would he mind standing outside until the flames had subsided...
[17:14:52] <Bender> karma - janrinok: 37
[17:14:52] <cmn32480> janrinok++
[17:14:44] <mecctro> Lots of housefires around here in the last few years, starting to get paranoid
[17:14:15] <janrinok> completely destroyed the upper floor - bedrooms.
[17:14:01] <n1> being the good neighbour... "sorry to trouble you but i happened to notice your house is on fire"
[17:13:39] <janrinok> yep, although the occupant was unaware until I started banging on his front door
[17:13:19] <n1> wow, everyone ok?
[17:13:17] <janrinok> ... but today I'm good
[17:13:03] <janrinok> was AWOL yesterday - the house next door caught fire, and our power was cut off while the fire brigade were brave men ....#

[15:13:44] <cmn32480> they say it's for our own good, or it actually IS for our own good?
[15:13:43] <n1> because really, we can't handle the truth and we give TPTB every indication that we don't want to
[15:13:18] <n1> no one cares, no one blinks, people get outraged when it's one of their trigger issues, but we all knew it was going on, it always has been going on and in the grand scheme of things it's for our own good

[15:11:33] <n1> much like what the GOP appears to be trying to to do trump, the DNC worked with hilary to avoid that situation
[15:11:11] <n1> and no one really cared when the story broke, because like the NSA spying on everyone all the time, everyone knew that was going on anyway, it's only sensible

[14:48:59] <n1> brain, not my brian...
[14:48:45] <Runaway1956> It does sound personal - small town, only a couple cops on duty at any given time, the police chief and a sheriff's deputy responded
[14:47:56] <n1> for whatever reason, that's what my brian decided was relevant
[14:47:23] <n1> recall kind of things as a setup from a tv show as a way of dealing with cops that are not loyal to the force, set up a call that they wont return from.

[14:45:27] <Runaway1956> when the cops arrived, they were shot

[12:18:27] <crutchy> dunno if websockets could be used to get around ad blockers, but its an interesting thought
[12:17:38] <crutchy> polymorpherized websites ftw!
[12:17:18] <crutchy> gotta have them ads keep on flowing. can't have people keep blocking our ads now can we
[12:16:13] <AndyTheAbsurd> yo dawg, I heard you liked client/server models so we made your client a server and your server a client so that your client could server your server and you server could be a client of your client.
[12:13:15] <crutchy> why have 1 server, when you can have 2 :D
[12:12:22] <crutchy> its still client/server.. its just... a bit more appy :p
[12:11:50] <crutchy> probably lol
[12:11:35] <AndyTheAbsurd> I'd describe websockets as "an inversion of the client/server model that the web was originally based on" rather than "persistent ajax"
[12:10:42] <crutchy> the highlighted code decodes data frames transmitted over websockets, which are kinda like persistent ajax
[12:10:31] <boru> It's PHP. It's obviously some sort of server with backdoor functionality.
[12:10:06] * cmn32480 knwons better.. this is crutchy code
[12:09:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> but then I figured maybe I should click the link and see if it has a description
[12:09:40] <AndyTheAbsurd> LOL I was about to ask that

[11:54:56] <crutchy> "oh shit our servers borked.. oh shit now nobody can do the shit.. oh crap now everyone thinks the gubmint gunna fine them... oh bugger we should figure out some way to tell people they not gunna get fined"
[11:53:21] <sedctl> <crutchy> it wouldn't have been so bad if beforehand they didn't threaten (in usual aussie way) to fine anyone that doesn't do it :|

[08:15:21] <SirFinkus> I'm better off assuming that they don't
[08:15:08] <crutchy> do british nuclear submarines still run windows?
[08:14:53] <crutchy> heh. probabkly
[08:14:44] <SirFinkus> "to help stop the freezes" you mean "whether they like it or not"
[08:14:34] <boru> I am amused whenever I see ruggedised or safety critical machines running windows.
[08:14:15] <boru> I think that should quaalify for a discount.
[08:14:10] <crutchy> apparently they are about to be 'upgraded' from 8 to 10 soon (to help stop the freezes)
[08:13:49] <boru> How awful.
[08:13:19] <SirFinkus> windows 10 if you're not careful
[08:12:56] <crutchy> it froze on us once, so it still has good ol' windows on it :p
[08:12:28] <boru> Ruggedised machines are typically well thought out like that.
[08:12:06] <SirFinkus> it has buttons and ports, so it doesn't look that terrible

[08:01:56] <SirFinkus> oh, it even came with a carrying case
[07:58:58] <SirFinkus> it comes with vga I suppose, but that's pretty dated these days
[07:58:49] <SirFinkus> the only improvement (aside from stuff like faster cpu more ram etc) would be a hdmi port
[07:58:24] <boru> You can't go wrong for 60 lids, really.
[07:57:36] <boru> I am utterly dissappointed with my new thinkpad.
[07:57:32] <SirFinkus> about $60 on ebay, might be worth picking up a "new" one
[07:57:27] <boru> Check out some ruggedised computers. They've been my goto for that sort of thing.
[07:57:00] <SirFinkus> I haven't really seen anything else that fits the bill these days
[07:56:32] <boru> Yeah, for sure.
[07:56:27] <boru> Plus 2 DB9 RS232 ports, plus...
[07:56:15] <SirFinkus> well, for a 10 inch laptop, they were great
[07:56:08] <boru> Granted I typically need 8-10 USB ports...
[07:55:58] <boru> Not enough ports!
[07:55:51] <boru> If my control equipment failed, it'd failover to that.
[07:55:39] <SirFinkus> just because they were so small, had lots of ports, and were durable as fuck
[07:55:23] <boru> I had one as a field astronomy backup; long battery life.
[07:55:04] <SirFinkus> $100, durable, and great for troubleshooting stuff
[07:54:40] <SirFinkus> those laptops were the best

[07:52:54] <SirFinkus> I managed to break the screen, but it's headless anyway
[07:52:44] * boru chuckles.
[07:52:40] <SirFinkus> I've abused the fuck out of it
[07:52:35] <SirFinkus> probably wouldn't touch this laptop
[07:52:18] <boru> Use a hammer!
[07:52:07] <boru> Jails, PF and Snort, and some clever rc.conf are all you'll ever need, really.
[07:51:43] <SirFinkus> I'd get started tonight, but I can't be assed finding my precision screwdriver set so I can install this 500gb hard drive in the thing
[07:51:37] <boru> (If you want proper performance, that is)
[07:51:12] <boru> It's really the only option for inlining Snort on BSD.
[07:50:44] <boru> Netmap's data plane shits lightning.
[07:50:36] <SirFinkus> but that could be fun
[07:50:33] <SirFinkus> I hadn't even thought of that
[07:50:26] <SirFinkus> oh man
[07:50:15] <boru> If you're planning on playing around with Snort at all, I _highly_ recommend building in netmap(4).
[07:49:58] <SirFinkus> but the leds on obscure machintosh keyboards from 1992 will work perfectly!
[07:49:42] <boru> Building a custom kernel couldn't be easier with FreeBSD.
[07:49:29] <boru> Aye.
[07:49:22] <SirFinkus> probably no debug stuff though
[07:49:14] <SirFinkus> I was lazy and just used genkernel, which is the "kitchen sink" option
[07:48:52] <boru> (When you boot it, too)
[07:48:44] <boru> With debug and witness compiled in, be prepared to make a few cups of tea.
[07:48:27] <boru> Development kernels on the other hand...
[07:48:07] <boru> My KERNCONF is very slimmed down.
[07:47:56] <boru> I can build buildkernel+buildworld on FreeBSD in ~20-30 minutes on my big rig.
[07:47:56] <SirFinkus> still kind of sad they don't really make netbooks anymore
[07:47:25] <SirFinkus> not really an issue, I installed it over ssh and just came back to it whenever
[07:47:17] <boru> Heh, I bet.
[07:47:03] <SirFinkus> compiling everything
[07:46:52] <SirFinkus> I've installed gentoo on this thing, it took about 3 days
[07:46:12] <boru> It's a little different, but you should feel comfortable enough.
[07:45:51] <boru> Aye, portage was inspired by BSD ports.
[07:45:45] <boru> I've used that sort of setup for cross compiling ports for other architectures.
[07:45:30] <SirFinkus> I've run gentoo systems before, so that's similarish correct?
[07:45:27] <boru> You can always build your ports on another machine locally, though, then add that as a packagesite.
[07:45:05] <boru> If it's an old lappy, building from ports can be a bit...time consuming.
[07:44:49] <boru> If you're not pressed for ports, then OpenBSD might be a better fit; their packages come in different 'flavours' representative of them being built from ports with different options enabled.

[07:42:57] <SirFinkus> I've played with btrfs a bit, but it had a few problems that give me bad feelings in my stomach
[07:42:25] <boru> Fair enough.
[07:42:23] <SirFinkus> working with snapshots and stuff
[07:42:15] <SirFinkus> (but I want to)
[07:42:12] <SirFinkus> it's more for getting familiar with the features, I don't have a box right now with a bunch of hard disks to play with the raid stuff
[07:42:02] <boru> Jail your services, and remote mount the ZFS store therein.
[07:41:23] <boru> Without a lot of RAM, I'd be inclined to just stick with UFS and back up. If you want to do ZFS right, then lots of RAM, RAID-Z3 and back up.
[07:38:05] <SirFinkus> currently running desktop ubuntu lol
[07:37:03] <Beige> Ok.. should be fine for that.
[07:36:54] <Beige> Err, can == and
[07:36:52] <SirFinkus> talking SMB and maybe a FTP server I'll use once in a blue moon
[07:36:40] <Beige> Yeah.. if you're not going to run anything critical on it stick to the defaults can keep an eye on RAM
[07:36:21] <SirFinkus> performance isn't a huge issue
[07:36:16] <SirFinkus> granted, the workload is small, and it's mostly for playing around
[07:36:04] <Beige> So if you want to play with bhyve then you should tweak the ZFS max ram settings for sure. Not a happy combination by default :-)
[07:35:59] <SirFinkus> yeah, might be a little ram starved at 1GB
[07:35:53] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Despite Scandals, US Wants 4,000 More UN Troops in South Sudan - http://sylnt.us - flawed-logic
[07:35:15] <Beige> ZFS is powerful but depending on your use-case you may need to tweak the defaults.. e.g. if you run processes on the machine which require a lot of RAM then you may need to tune the max RAM settings for ZMS (otherwise it could grab a fair bit of RAM whenever it feels like it)

[07:31:08] <SirFinkus> mainly for ZFS stuff
[07:31:02] * SirFinkus was considering playing with freebsd in the near future
[07:30:37] <Beige> I don't think anyone who depends on his/her Linux would use anything but RedHat or CentOS anyway.. those guys are pretty good at keeping dependency trees from falling apart.
[07:23:09] <boru> Linux is very fragmented. New distros coming out every week, people putting Linux in places it shouldn't be and where it can't be upgraded or maintained. I think some catastrophics failures are overdue to teach people a very valuable lesson.
[07:21:41] <boru> I posit that the problem is distro maintainers; half of them don't follow the LKML, even. They just pull the next release, and are happy if it builds.
[07:21:24] <Beige> I'm a FreeBSD guy myself btw so no argument there :-) But Linux is very common so this vulnerability is worth being aware of..
[07:19:08] -!- x0908d3b2 has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[07:16:38] <boru> That's fairly common, ime.
[07:16:22] <Beige> Perhaps. What's a bit peculiar about this vulnerability is that it was patched in the Linux kernel in July, but it doesn't look like any mainstream distros have backported it yet.. So some kind of breakdown in communication there (no pun intended).
[07:15:57] <boru> Gentoo, for example.
[07:15:34] <boru> The BSDs have vuxml and an audit tool built into the package manager. Some Linux distros follow suit.
[07:14:35] <boru> Or that most Linux distros don't provide auditing tools.
[07:14:21] <boru> Like it or not, the problem is that people don't audit their systems.
[07:13:42] <boru> It's like reading bug reports or CVEs is too technical, so they need to add the Fisher Price factor with bright colours and a mascot so that people on reddit understand what the problem is.
[07:13:38] <Beige> But whether we like it or not the branding seems to help in getting the word out.
[07:12:44] <Beige> Indeed.
[07:12:37] <boru> Ugh, I think giving names to vulnerabilities is ridiculous, personally.
[07:12:10] <Beige> Those guys should've given the vulnerability a retarded name like "TCP Kiss" and then mainstream tech news sites would've been all over it by now :-)
[07:12:03] <boru> Oh, Linux...
[07:12:00] * boru chuckles.
[07:11:12] <Beige> CVE-2016-5696 isn't getting nearly enough attention yet.. issue looks pretty serious.
