[01:53:33] * Runaway1956 knows all FatPhil
[01:53:59] * Runaway1956 is the Ghost in the Machine
[01:56:33] <requerdanos> a very realistic portrayal of hacking, with the 1s and 0s spilling out as the shadowy hacker tries to boot kali linux
[01:56:56] <kyonko> kali linux doesn't allow you root
[01:57:18] <requerdanos> maybe that's one reason all those green 1s and 0s are spilling out.
[01:57:23] <kyonko> most desktop linux distros will not give you root
[01:57:32] <kyonko> yeah and i liked chromeos
[01:57:32] <Runaway1956> Real hackers don't use desktop environments lol
[01:57:43] <chromas> sudo su
[01:57:50] <kyonko> but you need root for hardware access
[01:58:05] <kyonko> fuck it its not your hardware anyway
[01:58:13] <requerdanos> being root and logging in as root are different things.
[01:58:16] <Runaway1956> Boot into single user mode, you're root
[01:58:28] <kyonko> root is god mode
[01:58:37] <Runaway1956> no, God is root
[01:58:37] <kyonko> you can destroy your computer
[01:58:44] <chromas> sure but "logging in as root" wasn't mentioned
[01:58:50] <Runaway1956> I can destroy my machine without root, lmao
[01:59:11] <requerdanos> root is an identity with a set of permissions, usable in different contexts.
[02:00:01] * Runaway1956 destroys root's identity then wonders why the machine won't start
[02:00:02] <requerdanos> anyone who things that "most desktop linux distros will not give you root" clearly needs to know that there is a difference between being root vs. logging into the root account.
[02:00:03] <kyonko> root has control of all hardware and users
[02:00:23] <kyonko> you can't get root easily on linux mint
[02:00:27] <chromas> systemd-rootd
[02:00:28] <Runaway1956> if you can install drivers, you can do damned near anything
[02:00:34] <requerdanos> uh, sudo bash, poof, yer root
[02:00:43] <kyonko> who remembers admin on windows vista?
[02:00:49] <chromas> actually systemd-homed is a thing
[02:00:50] <requerdanos> if that isn't "easily" then linux isn't for you.
[02:01:12] <chromas> homectl create user
[02:01:23] * Runaway1956 roots kyonko
[02:01:23] <kyonko> it seems windows 10 has like outside of the universe admin levels
[02:01:37] <kyonko> windows 10 destroyed 2 tb of data
[02:01:50] <requerdanos> well, sure, there's the owners of the computer, in redmond, and then there's you, the product.
[02:02:04] <requerdanos> different levels of admin for those are only logical
[02:02:04] <kyonko> they own the hardware
[02:02:20] * Runaway1956 still hasn't installed or used a Win10
[02:02:47] <kyonko> i was forced too by wal*mart
[02:02:56] <requerdanos> Right before I quit windows for good I had win10 preview on a laptop
[02:03:02] <Runaway1956> Oh ye of weak wills and little faith
[02:03:08] <kyonko> do you use desktop bsd?
[02:03:29] <requerdanos> I don't bsd on a daily basis, just gnu+linux-libre
[02:03:53] <kyonko> i can't figure out how bsd works with disks
[02:04:13] -!- boru` [boru`!~boru@iheu-02-806-892-282.dynamic.mnet-online.de] has joined #soylent
[02:04:16] -!- boru has quit [Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by boru`!~boru@iheu-02-806-892-282.dynamic.mnet-online.de))]
[02:04:16] <kyonko> you need root to work with disks
[02:04:18] boru` is now known as boru
[02:04:25] <requerdanos> oh, well, there's that root again
[02:04:42] <kyonko> yes normal people us DA CLOUD on DA FIBER
[02:04:51] <requerdanos> and you say you couldn't figure how to become root on Linux Mint -- yet you are advancing to BSD? May I give you some advice...
[02:05:12] <chromas> install windows95?
[02:05:20] * Runaway1956 avoids normal people like the COVIDS
[02:05:22] <kyonko> windows 2000 was the best
[02:05:28] <requerdanos> "Turn off the computers and back slowly away"
[02:05:57] <Runaway1956> do not hit any key
[02:06:04] <kyonko> whats the deal with chromebooks
[02:06:11] <kyonko> I mean, the UI is nice
[02:06:24] <kyonko> desktop linux?
[02:06:35] <requerdanos> they are an advertising vehicle for Google, and as a bonus, provide netbook functionality
[02:06:47] <chromas> when they first came out, they were a decent way to get a nice fully linux-compatible laptop
[02:06:53] * kyonko holds chromebook like a flip phone
[02:06:55] <chromas> at least the higher-end ones
[02:06:57] * kyonko orders a pizza
[02:07:16] * Runaway1956 watches the pizza disoby kyonko's orders
[02:07:25] <kyonko> the higher end one? like a chromebook pixel LS?
[02:07:40] <kyonko> all the modern high end chromebooks are total usb-c things
[02:07:47] <kyonko> like a scsi chain of usb-c
[02:07:48] <chromas> I don't know if they had lettres back then
[02:07:53] <Runaway1956> Does a high end turd shine to a higher luster?
[02:08:04] <requerdanos> I had a CR-48 chromebook
[02:08:08] <kyonko> chromas: whatever they are, they are rare
[02:08:10] <chromas> it does if the turd is in the software
[02:08:15] <kyonko> you had a cr-48 and what happened to it?
[02:08:38] <requerdanos> the touchpad quit working, I gave it to an ex-girlfriend many years ago who was using it with a mouse
[02:08:47] <kyonko> heh
[02:08:57] <kyonko> tell me about the rubbery feeling
[02:08:59] <Runaway1956> So, the ex-girlfriend ditched you for a mouse?
[02:09:02] <kyonko> i have a rubbery dell
[02:09:16] <requerdanos> you could spin it that way, sure
[02:09:24] <chromas> or that's why she's an ex ;)
[02:09:29] <Runaway1956> lol
[02:10:02] <Runaway1956> Remember Furbies?
[02:10:19] <Runaway1956> When a chick ditches you for a Furbie . . .
[02:10:34] <chromas> Runaway1956: s/b/r/
[02:10:34] <SedBot> <chromas> <Runaway1956> When a chick ditches you for a Furrie . . .
[02:10:47] <Runaway1956> that too
[02:11:26] * Runaway1956 wached kyonko root a Furrie
[02:11:38] <Runaway1956> got it on video too

[02:47:08] <c0lo> TheMightyBuzzard, I stumbled over a nest of "other people's money socialists" https://twitter.com
[02:47:10] <systemd> ^ 03Twitter ( https://mobile.twitter.com )
[02:47:53] <Bytram> Runaway1956: What temp do you bake the chicken spaghetti at?
[02:50:31] <c0lo> "/var/tmp" is best
[02:53:05] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[02:53:32] <requerdanos> 175C / 350F is usually a safe guess, right?
[02:54:02] <Bytram> Runaway1956: If I had to guess, I'd say 350 F, but would appreciate a confirmation.
[02:55:03] <Bytram> btw, your recipe sounds very much like an egg noodle chicken casserole recipe I have, except mine does not have the salsa
[02:55:29] <chromas> what temp do you bake your egg noddle chicken casserole recipe without the salsa at?
[02:55:58] <Bytram> whatever it says on the recipe
[02:56:17] <requerdanos> So, eds, that sentence in the particle physics article... "In reality, the Standard Model is built on two quantum theorieshttps://en.wikipedia.org the electroweak theory [3],"
[02:56:18] <systemd> ^ 03CP violation: - Wikipedia
[02:56:38] <Bytram> requerdanos: thanky! on it
[02:57:48] <chromas> hehe
[02:59:59] <Bytram> requerdanos: Fixed (I think!) Should clear the buffers w/in 5 minutes or so
[03:00:11] <Bytram> requerdanos++ TYVM
[03:00:11] <Bender> karma - requerdanos: 12
[03:01:46] <requerdanos> it just looks more readable without random things junking up the text, as can tend to happen

[03:04:03] <systemd> ^ 03Twitter ( https://mobile.twitter.com )
[03:04:24] <requerdanos> Wrong channel for election stuff I think
[03:05:29] <carny> does the sn site have a feature for taking bets like a survey of sorts?
[03:06:01] <carny> i'd like to see who the users think will be the first to cut a deal with the feds
[03:07:00] <chromas> journal entry
[03:08:07] <carny> how would that keep track of bets?
[03:08:17] <requerdanos> in one handy thread?
[03:08:34] -!- Runaway1956 has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[03:20:07] <Bytram> carny: yes and no. There are polls. I just happened to queue up a new one for release "in a few hours".
[03:20:41] <requerdanos> is it about a conspiracy between "Big Tech" and "The Intelligence Community"?
[03:21:35] <Bytram> carny: requerdanos has the right idea; get the answers to your question all in one place; maybe use your browser's search function to help tabulate the results?
[03:22:26] <Bytram> what about IT: Intelligence Technology?
[03:24:49] <requerdanos> That sounds very sinister indeed.
[03:26:11] <chromas> osint?
[03:28:18] <c0lo> sinint
[03:28:51] <chromas> it always comes back to pid1
[03:29:50] <requerdanos> I found the culprit: 1 ? Ss 4:02 /sbin/init
[03:31:47] <c0lo> sounds very sbininiter indeed
[03:35:29] <kyonko> roll your own linux
[03:36:05] <kyonko> they say if your compile gentoo from source, you will know everything about the universe
[03:37:36] <pinchy> actually Richard stallman will give a personal visit and congratulate ya
[03:42:49] <kyonko> heh
[03:42:52] <kyonko> use ogg
[03:43:27] <kyonko> richard stallman has problems with ubuntu or debian I forget which
[03:56:33] <AzumaHazuki> i've compiled gentoo from source for 16+ years and don't know everything about the universe
[03:56:44] <AzumaHazuki> literally half my lifespan has included Gentoo, wow
[03:56:55] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Self-Victimhood is a Personality Type, Researchers Find - https://sylnt.us - the-whirled-in-which-we-live
[04:00:23] <kyonko> how long does it take?
[04:00:37] <kyonko> i'd imagine you'd have to do this on a spare junk x64 pc
[04:01:24] <kyonko> copying a raw bootable live working disk image is eternal at 100gb
[04:02:16] <kyonko> if you use cp, it is triple eternities
[04:04:49] <AzumaHazuki> depends heavily on your hardware and how good you are at compiling a kernel. TBH, i can't seem to get a working kernel from a blank config (make allnoconfig)
[04:05:00] <kyonko> iirc, freebsd now won't work on anything lower than i586 or whatever
[04:05:20] <AzumaHazuki> i booted off an Artix medium and use make modconfig in my gentoo chroot to get a basically working config, then tweaked that
[04:05:23] <kyonko> I used to work miracles with slackware linux in 2000
[04:05:37] <AzumaHazuki> ...wait, how old are you? I was 12 in 2000
[04:05:44] <kyonko> same as you
[04:05:47] <kyonko> i'm 35
[04:06:47] <kyonko> i never could get the bsds to work, i think those required hand made x86 hardware
[04:08:19] <AzumaHazuki> i'm 32. so you were 15 then
[04:08:32] <kyonko> nah I was younger
[04:08:35] <AzumaHazuki> well, i started on Gentoo just before age 16, so i guess it's not too unusual...?
[04:09:00] <kyonko> well, I got into linux because of how terrible windows 98 was and because of the internet
[04:09:38] <kyonko> it was a slow process i think, from 6th grade to 8th grade
[04:10:32] <kyonko> when windows xp came out I had no use for linux since there were win32 ports of gnu software
[04:10:55] <kyonko> then windows xp began to blow up spontaneusly along with a few big ones in windows 7
[04:11:11] <kyonko> fat32 sucks ass, but its the samizdat
[04:11:46] <kyonko> I regret getting rid of that slackware linux computer
[04:13:16] <kyonko> i wish I still found this fun
[04:13:27] <kyonko> i've made discoveries, but I'm so empty inside
[04:14:25] <kyonko> i'm not sure when exactly but I had to call microsoft support a few times in the mid 2000's and give them the COA sticker number over a robocall, I used a throw away cell phone to call microsoft obviously
[04:14:48] <kyonko> thats when I knew, rms was right
[04:15:10] <kyonko> i think the rms ubuntu/debian beef is that old
[04:22:24] <kyonko> then in 2009 I met vista
[04:22:44] <kyonko> and that was on weird ass acer computer that could not boot any linux kernel
[04:23:17] <kyonko> the lcd screen and resolution never worked right in vista
[04:23:30] <kyonko> it looked cheap
[04:25:10] <kyonko> vista and windows 7 is when I had to deal with admin priveledge shittyness
[04:25:25] <kyonko> win xp had the svchost
[04:26:37] <kyonko> i
[04:26:51] <kyonko> m not sure what i'm going to do when windows 7 stops work mostly with tls
[04:28:12] <AzumaHazuki> virtual machine? i have XP SP3 going in a VM specifically for Anvil Studio
[04:28:39] <kyonko> ah cool
[04:28:48] <kyonko> how do you handle the registry?
[04:29:13] <kyonko> i HAVE windows 10 on two laptops, all HEAVILY modified
[04:29:31] <kyonko> i don't like it, i'd rather just go 100% linux or bsd
[04:30:58] <kyonko> ghostbsd is desktop bsd with openrc
[04:31:45] <kyonko> I also use android, but have yet to log in to chromeos
[04:40:12] <kyonko> google cr-48, very hackable

[06:02:39] * bacteria displays the air of superiority known only to slackware users
[06:02:55] <bacteria> which is none MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!
[06:03:07] <bacteria> it just works, mmmok?
[06:03:56] <kyonko> yeah sorta it just works
[06:04:05] <kyonko> but I can't figure it out with UEFI
[06:04:47] <kyonko> how did you get slackware to boot?
[06:04:57] <kyonko> it expects a usb floppy drive
[06:05:01] <bacteria> oh yeah lol uefi just don't work, mmmok? uefi is bad, mmmok?
[06:05:05] <bacteria> dude
[06:05:06] <kyonko> yes
[06:05:24] <chromas> slackware's old enough you can have an heir of superiority
[06:05:49] <bacteria> on my new laptop from thinkpenguin i had to install ubuntu and then grub and then i chrooted into slackware install and that way it works now
[06:06:00] <bacteria> grub2
[06:06:20] <chromas> slackware doesn't have grub 2?
[06:06:35] <bacteria> the install really don't work anymore, no release in 4 years, but the rest, can't be happier
[06:06:38] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - We Have a Winner in the World’s First Quantum Chess Tournament - https://sylnt.us - schrödinger's-2cas2tle
[06:06:46] <bacteria> it does not, chromas
[06:07:01] <kyonko> AHA
[06:07:06] <kyonko> so the install does not work!
[06:07:17] <kyonko> you had to make do with whatever alienbob put out live image
[06:07:27] <bacteria> it does when you chroot from ubuntu, with grub already installed?
[06:07:33] <chromas> I think you can boot linux as an efi image now
[06:07:38] <AzumaHazuki> that sounds like a gigantic pain in the ass
[06:07:40] <bacteria> no alienbob, just stable
[06:08:03] <bacteria> you would think so, but i installed caldera in my life, so no ass pain is too giant now
[06:08:16] <kyonko> I liked mandrake while it lasted
[06:08:45] <kyonko> but I really felt good using windows xp with cmd.exe and gnu software
[06:09:00] <kyonko> i used kvirc extensively on windows 7

[06:10:14] <bacteria> fuck yeah
[06:12:26] <kyonko> I tried enlightenment when it first came out
[06:12:47] <kyonko> I'm on fedora 33 right now, trying to see what "early OOM" is all about
[06:12:59] <kyonko> no btrfs, had bad shit happen with it
[06:16:35] <kyonko> the bootloader automatically detected and can boot windows 7, but will it do so with bsd?
[06:18:34] <bacteria> you have winXX on the same computer? good luck
[06:19:06] <bacteria> i stopped using winXX dualboot after it trashed my aux HD (!) during a routine update
[06:20:50] <bacteria> it like literally shat all over the hard drive that had no fat/ntfs on it, while upgrading win on the primary HD
[06:21:15] <bacteria> no prompt, just do. i reboot, everything is gone
[06:22:07] <AzumaHazuki> i've had a dual-boot machine where a Windows update unceremoniously ate GRUB and stuck NTLDR over it. With no entry for Linux
[06:22:12] <kyonko> well i turned off updates and telemetry in windows 7
[06:22:29] <AzumaHazuki> that little episode was what convinced me to go VM only for Windows, as it's clearly not mature, stable, or wellbehaved enough to live on the bare metal
[06:22:42] <bacteria> oh, it's mature
[06:22:57] <kyonko> bacteria: was this windows 10 or 8 updating?
[06:23:20] <kyonko> I had 2tb of data loss on windows 10 on an ntfs drive I swapped between computers
[06:23:31] <kyonko> it DID NOT like that I did that
[06:23:44] <kyonko> I'll always wonder if it would have done that with fat32
[06:23:47] <kyonko> but fat32 is so useless
[06:24:13] <kyonko> previous data loss event was when I tried to transfer photos on a microsd to my android phone
[06:24:41] <kyonko> they don't like it when you use usb/sd as a floppy
[06:25:09] <bacteria> kyonko: i think (not sure) i was going 8 -> 10
[06:25:24] <kyonko> windows 8 is where things start to get funny
[06:25:29] <kyonko> I tolerated vista for years
[06:25:57] <bacteria> i guess it was not a routine update
[06:26:06] <kyonko> it never is
[06:26:16] <bacteria> but that little detail changes nothing
[06:26:20] <kyonko> I remember my first time windows 7 tried to update to windows 10
[06:26:30] <kyonko> i thought that was it
[06:26:32] <kyonko> bricked
[06:26:36] <bacteria> heh
[06:26:57] <kyonko> eventually I went back and changed settings on telemetry on updates and nothing has happened, yet
[06:27:14] <kyonko> did you ever have fun times with windows COA sticker?
[06:27:36] <bacteria> funny how micro$oft can just start calling spyware 13telemetry and everyone eats it up
[06:27:48] <kyonko> now apple is doing since little snitch wont work
[06:27:59] <bacteria> i don't remember having fun with windows in the last like 10 years
[06:28:15] <kyonko> I guess chromebooks are "fun"
[06:28:30] <kyonko> but chromebooks for facebook and twitter, YIKES ON BIKES
[06:28:35] <bacteria> except they won't burn in the fire
[06:29:01] <kyonko> I had to enter the acid pool that is facebook 5 years ago
[06:29:44] <bacteria> let us guess.... an indie musician?
[06:30:12] <bacteria> your friends made an acct for you for lulz?
[06:30:16] <kyonko> oh no
[06:30:18] <kyonko> I uh
[06:30:27] <kyonko> I guess I had to find out for myself if what they said was true

[06:33:15] <kyonko> he is my age
[06:33:31] <kyonko> I remember the hot or nots in the early 2000's, always found facebook "low iq"
[06:33:47] <kyonko> hot or nots were crawled by google, its how I found a lot of people
[06:34:02] <kyonko> this was before myspace
[06:34:19] <kyonko> then myspace was crawled by google
[06:34:26] <kyonko> then sometime in 2010 it died
[06:34:37] <kyonko> everyone was on facebook
[06:36:00] <AzumaHazuki> the internet is a living realtime proof that there are no technical solutions to moral/social problems
[06:36:07] <AzumaHazuki> and that if it can be abused, it will be abused
[06:36:39] <kyonko> the scary thing about facebook is that it is "life altering"
[06:36:55] <kyonko> I keep punching myself in the face over, what if I was there before 2012
[06:37:39] <kyonko> it did not help having to search for someone who has a fetish for hiding
[06:38:20] <kyonko> its like rms attempting to hide
[06:39:07] <AzumaHazuki> bayesian poisoning. if you hide they find you by the hole you leave. so fill the hole with bullshit
[06:39:09] <kyonko> its one of those people who pride in have a facebook account that looks dead
[06:39:16] <AzumaHazuki> they want big data? give them so much data they fuckin' explode
[06:39:27] <kyonko> yeah, I kinda gave up trying to hide in 2011
[06:39:34] <kyonko> I just gave in to the 2FA mobile number game
[06:39:59] <kyonko> i got my first gmail in 2009, back when google was big in not being evil
[06:40:28] <kyonko> i've had my android phone nearly brick by running out of storage space
[06:40:30] <bacteria> AzumaHazuki: this is true, but there's also small data
[06:40:52] <bacteria> you know, where they match you ip to your bank account to your fucking retina
[06:40:59] <bacteria> that's all they really need
[06:41:03] <kyonko> oh yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
[06:45:53] <kyonko> I do online banking and shopping
[06:45:57] <kyonko> and I'm poor
[06:46:15] <kyonko> if I was ranked I wonder how I would rank being homeless as the baseline
[06:50:29] <bacteria> poor == valuable
[06:50:42] <bacteria> rich == demographically insignificant
[06:51:01] <bacteria> poor is like half the planet
[06:51:31] <AzumaHazuki> don't you have those first two mixed up?
[06:51:52] <kyonko> hack the planet?
[06:52:03] <kyonko> kali linux is not for daily driving
[06:52:07] <kyonko> its for pen testing
[06:52:28] <bacteria> i want a vape pen powered by kali linux
[06:52:43] <kyonko> eventually I turned it into a daily driver, learned how to do so by the blog of an nsa employee
[06:54:05] <bacteria> nsa stands for Nothing But Incompetence
[06:54:43] <kyonko> nsa is a mecca looking thing in ft. mead maryland
[06:55:19] <kyonko> national security, in other words, they prevent the nation from going extinct
[06:56:24] <chromas> bacteria: s/m..../ntine/
[06:56:24] <SedBot> <chromas> <bacteria> nsa stands for Nothing But Incontinence
[06:59:24] <bacteria> if s in nsa stood for anything, they'd be baking their own chips to run a sota libre os, and indicting micro$oft for producing underage porn by illegally spying in ppl's bedrooms
[07:01:13] <chromas> nah, save the legal work for the fbi
[07:01:18] * bacteria finishes a bottle of chianti
[07:01:23] <chromas> nsa doesn't have time for legalities
[07:02:20] <bacteria> oh you right, i mixed things up, nsa is the one that tries to score with hippie chix for reasons that are absolutely insane
[07:02:34] <kyonko> hippie chix dont shave
[07:02:54] <kyonko> whats with showing your armpits off anyway?
[07:02:54] <bacteria> it's ok, it's all under cover
[07:03:22] <kyonko> does the boston dynamics dog have armpits?
[07:03:38] <bacteria> gonna watch bristish office with my bud, leave you to your thoughts....
[07:04:01] <chromas> imagine if google hadn't sold off boston dynamics
[07:04:13] <chromas> activate robot dog with "ok google"
[07:04:31] <chromas> *clomp clomp clomp clomp*
[07:05:04] <kyonko> ok
[07:05:08] <kyonko> they sold boston dynamics?
[07:05:15] <chromas> I bet they only sold it because it was too big to cancel like everything else
[07:05:29] <kyonko> I actually own a chromebook pixel 2013
[07:05:36] <kyonko> feels right
[07:05:38] <chromas> it's Hyundai now
[07:07:20] <kyonko> hyundai is going to make a boston dynamics horse
[07:07:48] <kyonko> didn't boston dynamics had that bad ass android that required a tether right on the spot where an angel has its wings?

[09:06:21] <chromas> hm, then again, nickels are made out of themselves

[09:29:18] <c0lo> yeah, cents are better for the weight/value.

[13:03:15] <chromas> the logs don't fully represent

[13:14:55] <requerdanos> wet sheetrock wrapped in plastic wrap under tarps is still wet sheetrock
[13:15:04] <chromas> that's why you put it in dry
[13:15:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> to/from the trailer = gets rained on
[13:15:37] <chromas> I'm assuming the supplier has a building with a roof
[13:15:53] <Bytram> see, ya just need a garage they can drive the truck into
[13:15:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> probably but very likely not a covered loading dock
[13:15:58] <requerdanos> ... not a 100% safe assumption ...
[13:16:25] <chromas> probably a roof-as-a-service, from google, whose services are apparently down
[13:16:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> shurg, oh well. i could use a down day anyways.
[13:17:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> tired and busy as hell is why i ain't been around in a couple days
[13:17:23] <chromas> time to emerge @world again
[13:17:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> wanted the downstairs completely ready for the sheetrock guys by monday
[13:18:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, blarg. you're a bastard for reminding me to update the sn servers.
[13:18:44] <chromas> just switch 'em back to centos
[13:19:18] <requerdanos> oh, wait,
[13:19:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> think i'll just drop us back to slackware 1.0
[13:19:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> vulns will be so old nobody will remember them
[13:19:52] <requerdanos> good luck finding a floppy drive to run it from

[13:23:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> spose i should switch which load balancer dns is pointing to first. save us some downtime.
[13:23:59] <chromas> don't forget to set -o9000
[13:26:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> 9001, so it's OVER 9000
[13:26:30] <chromas> impossiburu!
[13:26:58] <chromas> set up a matching vm on your box so you can do the upgrades extra fast
[13:27:48] <chromas> then from the sn box, ssh themightybuzz.bob "cat /dev/sda" >/dev/sda to sync it back
[13:29:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> if they're fast i won't have an excuse to sit around the house playing video games all day
[13:30:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'll give dns an hour to propagate. anyone who has something caching results that much longer than our NS tells them to can just live with downtime.

[15:47:45] <kyonko> a weak cold?
[15:48:12] <kyonko> probably allergy, but then again, the spectrum leads to anaphylactic shock
[16:37:40] <Teckla> Yuck. Windows Terminal now does that annoying and stupid "skinny scrollbar until you hover over it" nonsense. >:(
[16:47:44] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Google Breakdown Causes Panic Across the Internet - https://sylnt.us - Lynchpin-division-reporting-in
[16:49:10] <kyonko> oh really?
[16:49:20] <kyonko> windows terminal is the win10 term for cmd.exe?
[16:49:39] <kyonko> I had problems with the linux mint ui
[16:50:13] <kyonko> i don't think linux mint can do what I want it to do, that is, working with disks daily
[16:50:42] <kyonko> because for swaping disks between different systems, it only understands "root" permissions
[16:51:17] <kyonko> in windows 10 admin can usually see all the files of the "lusers"
[16:51:33] <kyonko> when you mount an ntfs in linux, you can see everything, even admin's files
[16:53:30] <kyonko> then you got shit like exfat
[16:53:53] <kyonko> exfat is what android uses, but not chromeos..... not the chromeos in my chromebook pixel 2013
[16:56:33] <Teckla> kyonko: Yeah, Windows Terminal is kind of the new cmd.exe, though of course plain old cmd.exe is still available.
[16:56:54] <kyonko> yeah i see, along with powershell
[16:57:23] <Teckla> Windows Terminal isn't installed by default, though. You have to specifically install it via the Microsoft Store.
[16:57:25] <kyonko> windows 10 is just so gross
[16:57:36] <kyonko> oh yeah, app stores, rms dislike
[16:58:04] <kyonko> they aren't programmable computers, they are smart devices
[16:58:27] <kyonko> windows is fun, because you never know what will cause it to stop booting
[16:58:47] <Teckla> Windows 10 sucks. :(
[16:58:48] <kyonko> or have a heinous driver failure.... heh like usb or wifi
[16:59:27] <kyonko> windows 10 is here to stay, at the local wal-mart, and I live in a cowboy town, its all chromebooks, ipads and surfaces
[17:00:49] <kyonko> i wonder if the rumors are true about dysfunctional california, planned power outages, slow fiber, bit flipping fiber, no cell towers in cupertino, buried utilities in mountain view
[17:01:22] <kyonko> due to metastatic growth, the buried utilitie lines in mountain view are stuffed tight
[17:02:24] <kyonko> if the lone cell tower in cupertino was at 1 infinite loop, than that was during the mid 2000's with the brain cancer rumors
