[00:29] diddledan: fishy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFS1jXOv0fE [07:45] hi [08:25] hi [08:32] morning boys and girls. [08:38] g'day [08:40] morning SuperMatt [08:56] all cool up in this hizzle? [09:08] Morning all [09:42] morning, davmor2 [09:43] Morning diddledan [09:43] Good morning all! Happy Thursday, and happy Use Less Stuff Day! 😃 [09:43] * diddledan uses more stuff [09:44] Today is a very busy day. They should consider spreading these celebrations more evenly across the year. [09:45] JamesTait: this uses all the same letters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1WQCZe0B-A [09:46] JamesTait: personally I think you added the space and it is actually happy useless stuff day [09:47] 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. [09:49] 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 [09:55] davmor2, responsi-whatnow? [09:59] JamesTait: paying bills behaving in meetings and stuff ;) [09:59] speaking of which. I'm just settling-down to do paperwork and stuff [10:00] diddledan: see now tell me you wouldn't rather be on a swing or something [10:00] omg, a swing?! [10:00] now you're talking!! [10:00] care-free [10:02] :) [10:02] I miss being a kid [10:02] :'( [10:03] 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) [10:07] wha? https://www.grahamcluley.com/holding-enter-key-smash-linuxs-defenses/ [10:11] seems a bit of claiming the sky is falling because an acorn fell on his head [10:12] 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 [10:13] the "bug" he talks about there isn't bypassing the encryption in any way, shape, or form. [10:21] http://raspi.tv/2016/new-raspberry-pi-2b-1-2-with-pi3-bcm2837-processor [10:21] the pi2 has the same cpu as the pi3 now [10:22] so it's effectively pi-nowifi and pi3(wifi) [10:24] also, cheap androids are chinese spybots? http://www.kryptowire.com/adups_security_analysis.html [10:31] ok... how do i do whether my system supports NFS 4.2 [13:00] diddledan: Once someone has physical access, all bets are off [13:18] so we need hardware switches to cut off microphone, camera, wifi, network and usb ports and some way to lock those switches [13:19] apple just remove them [13:19] * zmoylan-pi goes looking for a modern system with a serial port... :-) [13:22] but they got removed after becoming obsolete, and many had serial+usb at the same time [13:22] and parallel [13:26] the amount of time i used to spend syncing data off old systems via serial and parallel when everything else had failed... [13:30] Laplink! [13:31] i still have ll3.exe here... just in case... :-) [13:31] installing it over serial via mode command [13:33] i think it came free with a laptop my company bought in the 80s... with the serial version of the cable [13:34] an epson laptop... [13:36] wow, laplink is a name I've not heard in years [13:37] did anyone, ever, use the windows "my briefcase" thingy? [13:37] I tried to use that once [13:38] 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) [13:39] 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] replaced with the nsa rolling luggage... :-P [13:40] 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 [13:42] it's got all wet and widdly outside [13:43] windy with rain, sleet and snow showers outside atm [13:43] basically all the weather [13:43] and intermittent sunny spells [13:43] we are suffering with "all the weather" right now [13:43] as in _all_ of it [13:44] tis the irish 13 month rainy season outside [13:46] i didn't understand what briefcase was. dropbox on a floppy? [13:48] yeah, it synced a directory on-disk with one on a removable drive [13:48] sounds terrifying [13:49] i don't know anyone who use it for long === slick is now known as ande [14:11] http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-38012930?ocid=socialflow_twitter [14:13] terrible ping times so gamers won't be happy... :-) [14:13] virginmedia have a gamer-specific tier of service now [14:13] ref: http://www.virginmedia.com/shop/broadband/vivid-gamer.html [14:14] probably worth it for people who spend a _lot_ of money on gaming [14:15] "VIVID 200 Gamer comes with totally unlimited broadband and absolutely no traffic management." [14:15] more collisions then than carmageddon? :-P === Slick is now known as shoup [15:16] trying to log into steam via the browser, can anyone else check if any issues ? [15:16] bah ffs, started working now [15:17] hah, successfully login and then i get a apache error :D [15:17] Think they're having issues [15:48] is rkhunter still worth trying or are they all ancient? [16:00] phoo, I'm impressed with the thoroughness of my accountancy-service-provider's verification checks for recovering lost 2fa access [16:01] I needed to find several bank transactions, previous tax records and all sorts [16:12] http://www.ebay.de/itm/Merry-Brexmas-Christmas-Sweater-Top-Jumper-Sweatshirt-Xmas-Ugly-Brexit-UK-Funny-/252572256689?var=&hash=item3ace7ac9b1%E2%93%82mwfGeMO7G5Evt0XuhwdzNvQ === alan_g is now known as alan_g|tst [16:23] i saw a better t'shirt the other day, it had a picture of patrick stewert transcribed on it, jean-luc picard for PM, :) [16:28] my wife has one "make it sew". cross stitched patrick stewart [16:28] http://fashionablygeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/picard-make-it-sew.jpg [16:33] :) === alan_g|tst is now known as alan_g [18:09] make it snow! [18:27] cold enough for it outside, but ground is wet and covered with leaves so unlikely to stick [19:53] https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/5dedwy/evga_1070_ftw_catching_fire_live_on_stream/ [19:53] 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" [19:54] stand back, he's downloading a jpg!! [19:54] eeep [19:56] do you actually see fire? [19:56] I just saw the stream cut [19:58] there's a little flash from down there [19:58] ahh [19:58] missed that [19:58] oh, haha, yeah [19:58] that's what happens when you let the beancounters save a few pennies [19:58] yip [19:59] 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] thankfully mine was not one of those 8D [20:00] dodged a fireball there... [20:01] eh not really, if i'd seen the stories in time it would've been a quick fix / RMA [20:02] 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] i remember phones [20:03] but nah it's only in gaming it'll push the PWM [20:03] it's when you see someone using a public phone box... you want to report suspicious activity... [20:15] i see Portsmouth found another war time bomb in the harbour [20:15] held up the ferry to the islands! [20:16] http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-37997259 [20:17] they occasionly find grenades dating back to wwi around ireland. they never know wether to send the bomb squad or the archeology department [20:18] wasn't that long ago one was found right in the mouth of our harbour [20:18] all those crossing over it had never known :> [20:19] how deep is the harbour... how close is the hull of a ferry passing over... might not do enough damage to sink a ferry [20:20] not a clue! [20:21] the water acts as a cushion so very few weapons succeed with a non contact detonation iirc [20:32] and there is still that munitions ship that would make a few seismographs twitch if it ever goes up off the uks south coast [21:17] Can you do WOL through a SOCKS proxy? [21:17] I have the remote tunnel / DDNS set up for my mum's router... bah [21:17] Just realised, no SSH, no socks proxy [21:18] Don't think her router has a WOL client or is sophisticated enough to do port-knocking [21:18] Just a stock Huwaei [21:18] Talk-Talk issue [21:18] I suppose you can send a magic packet through any UDP port? [21:19] If I opened a high port and configured it to NAT to broadcast... [21:19] no WOL is at broadcast i think [21:19] what's the *actual* think you're trying to do? [21:20] Wake up mum's desktop over the internet [21:21] Sling a magic packet at her router's WAN address and have it turn on her PC [21:21] So I can do maintenance on it without getting her to go switch it on [21:21] Can you configure NAT to broadcast? [21:22] think i'd just ask 'em to wiggle the mouse... :D [21:22] http://wakeonlan.me/ [21:22] Seems like you can [21:23] Not sure her PC is configured to do it but I can find that out next time I ssh it [21:23] hrmm [21:24] can be rare
