[00:22] see they could make a graphic card for uk and ireland you could boil water on to make tea... :-) [00:43] oh it's been done, many moons ago someone stacked 2p coins on a CPU and cooked an egg! [08:19] Morning all [08:27] morning [09:01] Morning all [09:01] MooDoo: still here I see [09:07] morning boys and girls. [09:17] paypal.com is still down (for me) [09:18] GPU fan no longer rattles...mostly because it no longer spins! [09:22] TwistedLucidity: what did you do to it [09:23] davmor2: Dunno. "paypal.com" resolves to 198.18.0.1 and that host is unreachable. [09:23] Fan was on the way out, got a new one on order. [09:23] paypal.com has address 64.4.250.33 [09:23] paypal.com has address 64.4.250.32 [09:23] that's what it resolves to for me [09:24] 198.18 and 198.19 are: [09:24] Addresses starting with "198.18." or "198.19." are set aside for use in isolated laboratory networks used for benchmarking and performance testing. They should never appear on the Internet and if you see Internet traffic using these addresses, they are being used without permission. [09:25] could be those 198 addresses are internal proxy addresses [09:25] or someone in your office is trying to MITM all the paypal requests [09:26] MartijnVdS: Yeah, when I ssh into another machine I get the correct IPs. I have no idea *why* my router returns 198...; even even I do "dig paypal.com @8.8.8.8" [09:27] I am at home [09:32] hmmmm interesting tactics Ebuyer after vault 7 you put a samsung 4k tv on sale hmmmmm [09:34] Good morning all! Happy Friday, and happy Mario Day! 😃 [09:37] Ah-ha! [09:38] "adb_list.openphish:address=/www.paypal.com/198.18.0.1" <- someone appears to have added paypal to a block-list [09:39] That's a wee bitty silly [09:39] And no, it wasn't me (before you ask) [09:39] * davmor2 bets it was [09:40] * davmor2 bets TwistedLucidity did it to stop the impulse buying when he arrived home drunk [09:40] davmor2: I claim my £5 [09:47] Now added to the whitelist and working again. I didn't recognise 198... as being what the netfilter used. Thought I had it on a 192 range (as it had been when using DD-WRT) [09:48] At least I know the netfilter works, if in an irritating way [09:49] Ah well, just adds to the morning fun. "Fun (adjective): Ironic. When you get woken by one of the dogs barfing over on the side of your bed." :-( [09:51] JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndiD8V7zpAs [09:51] New GPU fan is on way \o/ [17:49] popey: oi you about mucka [18:10] popey: what was the name of that site where you got giraffe from [18:10] ta [23:35] diddledan: psst are you around? [23:36] on a friday night?! out having a life i suspect :-P [23:39] ;) [23:43] probably pushing an original pacman machine they rescued from a skip home [23:43] i had an amusing email this morning from a mate about his missus' wordpress site getting owned [23:43] no surprises there, must not have maintained it at all [23:44] it's wordpress... isn't that an invitation to hacK? [23:44] only when unmaintained [23:44] love the way he asks me if it's the security of his host to blame [23:45] ie. can we make it not our fault? [23:45] ja :D [23:46] i had to be careful though, at first i thought he was going to tell me the site he made himself for his missus' business had gotten trashed... i advised against making his own [23:47] firing up notepad on windows and typing the html from memory.... :-P
