| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 08:25 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 08:32 |
| SuperMatt | g'day | 08:38 |
| brobostigon | morning SuperMatt | 08:40 |
| SuperMatt | all cool up in this hizzle? | 08:56 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 09:08 |
| diddledan | morning, davmor2 | 09:42 |
| davmor2 | Morning diddledan | 09:43 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Thursday, and happy Use Less Stuff Day! 😃 | 09:43 |
| * diddledan uses more stuff | 09:43 | |
| JamesTait | Today is a very busy day. They should consider spreading these celebrations more evenly across the year. | 09:44 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: this uses all the same letters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1WQCZe0B-A | 09:45 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: personally I think you added the space and it is actually happy useless stuff day | 09:46 |
| JamesTait | Home-made Bread Day; Social Enterprise Day; Take a Hike Day; World Prematurity Day; Beaujolais Nouveau Day; Unfriend Day and Petroleum Day all on the same day as Use Less Stuff Day. | 09:47 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: prematurity day I think would suit this channel to a tea I don't think any of us want to be mature all those responsibilities and stuff | 09:49 |
| JamesTait | davmor2, responsi-whatnow? | 09:55 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: paying bills behaving in meetings and stuff ;) | 09:59 |
| diddledan | speaking of which. I'm just settling-down to do paperwork and stuff | 09:59 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: see now tell me you wouldn't rather be on a swing or something | 10:00 |
| diddledan | omg, a swing?! | 10:00 |
| diddledan | now you're talking!! | 10:00 |
| diddledan | care-free | 10:00 |
| davmor2 | :) | 10:02 |
| diddledan | I miss being a kid | 10:02 |
| diddledan | :'( | 10:02 |
| davmor2 | When I'm Primeminister I'll pass a law that means all office chairs should be swings or ufo roundabouts (I'd say slides but that is saved for the fire escapes) | 10:03 |
| diddledan | wha? https://www.grahamcluley.com/holding-enter-key-smash-linuxs-defenses/ | 10:07 |
| diddledan | seems a bit of claiming the sky is falling because an acorn fell on his head | 10:11 |
| diddledan | the whole point of LUKS is for situations where the disk is accessible to an adversary. the encryption is to prevent reading the data which it succeeds in this case | 10:12 |
| diddledan | the "bug" he talks about there isn't bypassing the encryption in any way, shape, or form. | 10:13 |
| diddledan | http://raspi.tv/2016/new-raspberry-pi-2b-1-2-with-pi3-bcm2837-processor | 10:21 |
| diddledan | the pi2 has the same cpu as the pi3 now | 10:21 |
| diddledan | so it's effectively pi-nowifi and pi3(wifi) | 10:22 |
| diddledan | also, cheap androids are chinese spybots? http://www.kryptowire.com/adups_security_analysis.html | 10:24 |
| foobarry | ok... how do i do whether my system supports NFS 4.2 | 10:31 |
| TwistedLucidity | diddledan: Once someone has physical access, all bets are off | 13:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | so we need hardware switches to cut off microphone, camera, wifi, network and usb ports and some way to lock those switches | 13:18 |
| foobarry | apple just remove them | 13:19 |
| * zmoylan-pi goes looking for a modern system with a serial port... :-) | 13:19 | |
| foobarry | but they got removed after becoming obsolete, and many had serial+usb at the same time | 13:22 |
| foobarry | and parallel | 13:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | the amount of time i used to spend syncing data off old systems via serial and parallel when everything else had failed... | 13:26 |
| popey | Laplink! | 13:30 |
| zmoylan-pi | i still have ll3.exe here... just in case... :-) | 13:31 |
| zmoylan-pi | installing it over serial via mode command | 13:31 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think it came free with a laptop my company bought in the 80s... with the serial version of the cable | 13:33 |
| zmoylan-pi | an epson laptop... | 13:34 |
| diddledan | wow, laplink is a name I've not heard in years | 13:36 |
| diddledan | did anyone, ever, use the windows "my briefcase" thingy? | 13:37 |
| BigRedS | I tried to use that once | 13:37 |
| diddledan | wiki says "The Windows Briefcase was introduced in Windows 95[1] and was deprecated (although not removed) in Windows 8 and completely removed from Windows 10." ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Briefcase_(Microsoft_Windows) | 13:38 |
| BigRedS | my first IT job was Windowsy and I thought I'd try to use it all properly. I think it worked, but didn't really add enough to make me stop just using removable drives like I always had | 13:39 |
| zmoylan-pi | replaced with the nsa rolling luggage... :-P | 13:39 |
| zmoylan-pi | i tried briefcase when it came out... then i remembered that i kept a copy of every backup and restore program released by ms as they were all incompatible and i needed them all to recover backups people had as it sucked so much | 13:40 |
| diddledan | it's got all wet and widdly outside | 13:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | windy with rain, sleet and snow showers outside atm | 13:43 |
| diddledan | basically all the weather | 13:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | and intermittent sunny spells | 13:43 |
| diddledan | we are suffering with "all the weather" right now | 13:43 |
| diddledan | as in _all_ of it | 13:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | tis the irish 13 month rainy season outside | 13:44 |
| foobarry | i didn't understand what briefcase was. dropbox on a floppy? | 13:46 |
| BigRedS | yeah, it synced a directory on-disk with one on a removable drive | 13:48 |
| foobarry | sounds terrifying | 13:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | i don't know anyone who use it for long | 13:49 |

| zmoylan-pi | terrible ping times so gamers won't be happy... :-) | 14:13 |
| diddledan | virginmedia have a gamer-specific tier of service now | 14:13 |
| diddledan | ref: http://www.virginmedia.com/shop/broadband/vivid-gamer.html | 14:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | probably worth it for people who spend a _lot_ of money on gaming | 14:14 |
| diddledan | "VIVID 200 Gamer comes with totally unlimited broadband and absolutely no traffic management." | 14:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | more collisions then than carmageddon? :-P | 14:15 |

| diplo | trying to log into steam via the browser, can anyone else check if any issues ? | 15:16 |
| diplo | bah ffs, started working now | 15:16 |
| diplo | hah, successfully login and then i get a apache error :D | 15:17 |
| diplo | Think they're having issues | 15:17 |
| foobarry | is rkhunter still worth trying or are they all ancient? | 15:48 |
| diddledan | phoo, I'm impressed with the thoroughness of my accountancy-service-provider's verification checks for recovering lost 2fa access | 16:00 |
| diddledan | I needed to find several bank transactions, previous tax records and all sorts | 16:01 |

| brobostigon | i saw a better t'shirt the other day, it had a picture of patrick stewert transcribed on it, jean-luc picard for PM, :) | 16:23 |

| diddledan | make it snow! | 18:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | cold enough for it outside, but ground is wet and covered with leaves so unlikely to stick | 18:27 |
| daftykins | https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/5dedwy/evga_1070_ftw_catching_fire_live_on_stream/ | 19:53 |
| daftykins | wow, EVGA decided they'd save a few cents/pennies per graphics card and *not* fit thermal pads between the PWM chips and the cooler, some are overheating and or "doing a samsung" | 19:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | stand back, he's downloading a jpg!! | 19:54 |
| diddledan | eeep | 19:54 |
| popey | do you actually see fire? | 19:56 |
| popey | I just saw the stream cut | 19:56 |
| daftykins | there's a little flash from down there | 19:58 |
| popey | ahh | 19:58 |
| popey | missed that | 19:58 |
| popey | oh, haha, yeah | 19:58 |
| zmoylan-pi | that's what happens when you let the beancounters save a few pennies | 19:58 |
| daftykins | yip | 19:58 |
| daftykins | they released a modified BIOS that ramps the PWM fan curve up +400RPM, and offered card swaps or to send out kits for self install of the thermal pads | 19:59 |
| daftykins | thankfully mine was not one of those 8D | 19:59 |
| zmoylan-pi | dodged a fireball there... | 20:00 |
| daftykins | eh not really, if i'd seen the stories in time it would've been a quick fix / RMA | 20:01 |
| zmoylan-pi | ut you'd lose time with down system, on hold listening to muzak with phone system telling you how important your call is organising the return | 20:02 |
| daftykins | i remember phones | 20:02 |
| daftykins | but nah it's only in gaming it'll push the PWM | 20:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's when you see someone using a public phone box... you want to report suspicious activity... | 20:03 |
| daftykins | i see Portsmouth found another war time bomb in the harbour | 20:15 |
| daftykins | held up the ferry to the islands! | 20:15 |
| daftykins | http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-37997259 | 20:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | they occasionly find grenades dating back to wwi around ireland. they never know wether to send the bomb squad or the archeology department | 20:17 |
| daftykins | wasn't that long ago one was found right in the mouth of our harbour | 20:18 |
| daftykins | all those crossing over it had never known :> | 20:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | how deep is the harbour... how close is the hull of a ferry passing over... might not do enough damage to sink a ferry | 20:19 |
| daftykins | not a clue! | 20:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | the water acts as a cushion so very few weapons succeed with a non contact detonation iirc | 20:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | and there is still that munitions ship that would make a few seismographs twitch if it ever goes up off the uks south coast | 20:32 |
| awilkins | Can you do WOL through a SOCKS proxy? | 21:17 |
| awilkins | I have the remote tunnel / DDNS set up for my mum's router... bah | 21:17 |
| awilkins | Just realised, no SSH, no socks proxy | 21:17 |
| awilkins | Don't think her router has a WOL client or is sophisticated enough to do port-knocking | 21:18 |
| awilkins | Just a stock Huwaei | 21:18 |
| awilkins | Talk-Talk issue | 21:18 |
| awilkins | I suppose you can send a magic packet through any UDP port? | 21:18 |
| awilkins | If I opened a high port and configured it to NAT to broadcast... | 21:19 |
| daftykins | no WOL is at broadcast i think | 21:19 |
| daftykins | what's the *actual* think you're trying to do? | 21:19 |
| awilkins | Wake up mum's desktop over the internet | 21:20 |
| awilkins | Sling a magic packet at her router's WAN address and have it turn on her PC | 21:21 |
| awilkins | So I can do maintenance on it without getting her to go switch it on | 21:21 |
| awilkins | Can you configure NAT to broadcast? | 21:21 |
| daftykins | think i'd just ask 'em to wiggle the mouse... :D | 21:22 |
| awilkins | http://wakeonlan.me/ | 21:22 |
| awilkins | Seems like you can | 21:22 |
| awilkins | Not sure her PC is configured to do it but I can find that out next time I ssh it | 21:23 |
| daftykins | hrmm | 21:23 |
| daftykins | can be rare | 21:24 |
