[01:15:33] <chromas> oh neat. I adb shelled into my phone and it's got htop
[01:16:04] <mythterj> I use wallet to send money to my ner-do-well son in college. Less abuse than paypal for both of us.
[01:16:15] <chromas> Can you use Zelle?
[01:18:27] <mythterj> Probably could. But I know nothing of those guys. (or any of the 37 similar services that want to know my bank account and such.
[01:18:51] <chromas> It's a bank thing
[01:19:09] <chromas> At least in Murika. Not sure if other countries' banks are in on it
[01:19:21] <chromas> So there shouldn't be fees or nuffin'
[01:19:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> western onion ftw
[01:20:37] <mythterj> I see what you did there...
[01:26:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> i prefer non-serial-numbered precious stones sent via armed courier really.
[01:28:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> or drugs. you can generally make a tidy profit off of drugs if you split them into smaller units.

[01:43:20] <chromas> ooh, the title changed
[01:50:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> bump stocks are for idiots who don't know how to go to a machinist and get a part the size of their fingernail made
[01:51:57] <chromas> But muh bumpsterck
[01:52:00] <chromas> buzzwords man
[01:57:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> buzzwords? what, like bee? rattlesnake? hornet? electric razor? vibrator?
[02:26:41] <Sulla> If he had actually shot people (ala clocktower) instead of spray and pray he would have done much better
[02:26:50] <Sulla> Bump stock saved lives in vegas
[02:27:22] <chromas> That's just what a bumpstock would say
[02:27:42] <Sulla> Shit ive been found out
[02:27:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> Sulla, vs a crowd that's not actually true. especially at night.
[02:29:32] <Sulla> A total of sixteen people were killed; a 17th victim died 35 years later from injuries sustained in the attack.
[02:29:43] <Sulla> Whitman was really in it for the long game
[02:30:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> unless you have a nightvision scope attached to it, you're pop-and-praying at night. might as well up the rate of fire.
[02:31:52] <Sulla> With how much money he had, I don see why not
[02:32:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> further, unless he had experience shooting from a high angle, he would have compensated incorrectly and missed far more often than he hit even on a well lighted target.
[02:33:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> ballistics are significantly altered when you're not shooting relatively level
[02:33:52] <chromas> Sounds like it was a pro. FALSE FLAG FALGE FLAGE!
[02:34:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> well it was vegas. odds of there being a hooker involved would indeed be much higher than most other places.
[02:36:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> if you really want a lot of people dead though, there are better approaches than even an automatic weapon and a fuckload of ammo.

[02:37:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> peroxide-based explosives, for instance, are not picked up by scanners or bomb-sniffing dogs. a bit of your favorite one of those and a couple pounds of ball bearings ftw.
[02:40:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> i mean one pound of c4 and a few dollars worth of ball bearings makes a claymore and those can make short work of every living thing in a 60 degree cone over fifty yards long in front of them.

[03:33:52] <Bytram> things sure have changed
[03:34:35] <takyon> there's not a lot stopping a 1,000 TB SSD from being made in a few years
[03:34:51] <takyon> also let me check the volume difference between 3.5" and 2.5"
[03:34:59] <Bytram> is that a petabyte or exabyte
[03:35:13] <Bytram> cooling might become an issue, I suspect

[04:28:12] <Sulla> Learned that fact at 28
[04:28:23] <Bytram> lol
[04:29:10] <Bytram> I was just thinking you could ask him, in irc, to post a reply with some code you give him... if he can post it under his SN nick... should be him, right?

[04:31:54] <Bytram> if you see his reply with that code... bingo.
[04:32:12] <Sulla> Will see if he responds with interest before I do that
