| SuperMatt | I don't understand how these people don't understand that we have PKI. It's out in the public. Nothing anyone can do now can stop it. | 10:05 |
| foobarry | i used a £3M deep learning computer to talk Trump | 10:06 |
| foobarry | it learned english and grammar purely from trump tweets sent 2015-2017 | 10:07 |
| foobarry | using a recurrent neural network | 10:07 |
| diddledan | foobarry: dear god, that sounds like the spawn of satan | 10:12 |
| foobarry | then it | 10:28 |
| foobarry | Top people like a successful way, you have one of America, Trump Clinton go to vote!"" | 10:28 |
| foobarry | invents new tweets character by characer based on probabilities and what it's learned | 10:28 |
| foobarry | Donald Trump is a real story of a great people of the people of the White House to start the bad thing to be the best president!"" | 10:29 |
| foobarry | @realDonaldTrump is the only one who doesn't have a great politicians and the border back and wonderful people are doing a great honor! | 10:29 |
| foobarry | after the @ symbol it's learned that commonly a r-e-a-l-D follows it then likely an o etc | 10:30 |
| foobarry | "Entrepreneurs: Don't know this White House, I want to win in Florida!" | 10:30 |
| foobarry | Trump ready to pay a failure. Guy so can't get someone in the state."" | 10:30 |
| foobarry | 10:29 | 10:30 |
| foobarry | etc | 10:30 |
| foobarry | i also trained it to write new shakespeare based on learning how to talk from shakespeare | 10:31 |
| foobarry | not this isn't learning whole words like a bot, rather forming words characteer by character | 10:31 |
| SuperMatt | I would have thought that'd a more difficult concept than understanding context of words | 10:32 |
| TwistedLucidity | Surely Shakespeare is just taking an common sentence and then using a thesaurus? | 10:33 |
| TwistedLucidity | "I will walk the dog down the street" | 10:33 |
| TwistedLucidity | "I shall promenade my lupine compatriot along boulevard." | 10:34 |
| TwistedLucidity | Hrm...maybe not | 10:34 |
| SuperMatt | lupine is wold | 10:34 |
| SuperMatt | *wolf | 10:34 |
| SuperMatt | you're thinking canine | 10:35 |
| TwistedLucidity | Was trying to be more Shakespear-y | 10:35 |
| SuperMatt | Shakespear would have used hound in place of dog, but street would have probably remained the same, if I'm honest | 10:36 |
| TwistedLucidity | Also, "lupine" is "wolf-like". | 10:36 |
| diddledan | my would have been mine | 10:36 |
| SuperMatt | Not that I'm a literary scholar | 10:36 |
| TwistedLucidity | Should have chucked a few "thou"s in as well for good measure. :-P | 10:36 |
| diddledan | and some "est" on the end of a few random words | 10:37 |
| TwistedLucidity | Indeed | 10:37 |
| TwistedLucidity | Indeedest | 10:37 |
| SuperMatt | While we're on the subject, anyone been watching upstart crow? | 10:37 |
| diddledan | o_O | 10:37 |
| TwistedLucidity | Wozzat? | 10:37 |
| diddledan | no idea what that is | 10:37 |
| SuperMatt | head on over to bbc iplayer for a black adder-eque, ben elton penned, romp through shakespear's life, starring David Mitchell as the bard himself | 10:38 |
| TwistedLucidity | That can only go one of two ways; sheer genius or utter garbage. There is no middle ground in a set-up like that. | 10:39 |
| SuperMatt | Good news! It's sheer genius | 10:39 |
| TwistedLucidity | \o/ | 10:39 |
| TwistedLucidity | Great....now I have the earworm "I have a cunning plan" | 10:40 |
| TwistedLucidity | No, stop; now my brain has moved on to the "As cunning as a fox..." skit | 10:40 |
| TwistedLucidity | ARGH! | 10:40 |
| TwistedLucidity | Back to lupines for a bit, I met some Eastern European Wolfdogs a couple of months ago. Gorgeous creatures. Although probably would scare the wotsit out of one if seen running through a forest. | 10:43 |
| SuperMatt | https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/57080623/Screen_Shot_2017_10_10_at_8.03.27_AM.0.png aso very lupine | 10:54 |

| foobarry | SuperMatt: Recurrent neural networks do this well given sufficient training | 11:02 |
| foobarry | i used the country's biggest GPU cluster to do it :D | 11:02 |
| foobarry | the shakespeare stuff was great | 11:03 |
| foobarry | https://pastebin.com/xY10f50R | 11:04 |
| foobarry | sometimes it invents new words that just sounds shakespeary | 11:04 |
| foobarry | So arm these barks, infake, we the intended | 11:05 |
| foobarry | Ships of your pride! | 11:05 |
| foobarry | i love how using a good source (e.g. shakespeare) it learns excellent grammar | 11:05 |
| foobarry | it can also learn music, syntactically correct latex, html,e tc | 11:06 |
| foobarry | you can even feed it the linux kernel source and it will produce compilable code | 11:06 |
| foobarry | ...sort of | 11:06 |
| diddledan | I worry what that would do when executed :-p | 11:06 |
| foobarry | i was thinking of feeding it beatles lyrics and it would write totally novel songs | 11:07 |
| diddledan | feed it lyrics AND music and get it to compose musical songs rather than just the words | 11:08 |
| foobarry | it can do guitar tabs | 11:08 |
| foobarry | http://www.mattmoocar.me/blog/tabPlayer/ | 11:09 |
| foobarry | badly | 11:15 |
| marshmn | hi all; I'm thinking of changing my UID; so if I change it (using usermod) and I guess I have to chown all my files too - apart from that am I likely to run into any issues? | 11:30 |
| marshmn | it feels like it ought to be OK - but slightly nervous... | 11:31 |
| diddledan | marshmn: user id or username? | 11:32 |
| marshmn | user id | 11:32 |
| marshmn | I want to make it 2000 or something instead of 1000 | 11:32 |
| marshmn | and same for gid too, actually | 11:33 |
| SuperMatt | You shouldn't come across any issues, but I would suggest using find to change your permissions. find /home/<youruser> -uid 1000 -exec chown 2000 {} \; | 11:33 |
| diddledan | then yes you'll need to chown. try `sudo find /home/username -uid <olduid> -exec chown <newuid> '{}' \;` | 11:33 |
| SuperMatt | HAHAHA | 11:34 |
| marshmn | thanks both :) | 11:34 |
| diddledan | and the same for group `sudo find /home/username -gid <oldgid> -exec chgrp <newgid> '{}' \;` | 11:34 |
| marshmn | I guess I'm best off not being logged in as this user whilst doing all this :) | 11:34 |
| SuperMatt | Absolutely | 11:35 |
| SuperMatt | I'd log in as root from the command line | 11:35 |
| SuperMatt | But I wonder why you're doing it | 11:35 |
| marshmn | I'm trying to work around an issue; it seems that if you use Docker, and you are using the "user namespace remapping" feature, then there are issues if a user in your container happens to have the same UID as your host user | 11:36 |
| marshmn | and since containers often create a new user with UID 1000, that becomes a problem | 11:36 |
| marshmn | it's likely a bug | 11:36 |
| marshmn | but a reasonable short-term workaround appears to be to set the host user UID to be something out of the way that's less likely to conflict | 11:37 |
| foobarry | marshmn: your local machine? | 11:38 |
| marshmn | yes | 11:38 |
| foobarry | alternatively you could create a new user account rather than changing the 1000 one | 11:38 |
| foobarry | then duplicating your home dir and chowning in | 11:39 |
| foobarry | it* | 11:39 |
| marshmn | true | 11:39 |
| foobarry | then you can fail back if req'd | 11:39 |
| foobarry | remember to chown the . folders in home too. the whole shebang | 11:39 |
| diddledan | patch your bits! https://www.scmagazine.com/patch-tuesday-microsoft-62-vulnerabilities-28-critical-one-spotted-in-the-wild/article/699296/ | 12:14 |

| marshmn | diddledan: I did a bit more research into changing my UID/GID - these are the steps that I've come up with in total: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s231/sh/412fb93d-b34c-4180-82f3-7a881d8c428f/1678d00c6abd1232ca03220b6992d169 | 16:09 |
| marshmn | any comments welcome... | 16:09 |
| m0nkey_ | diddledan: Do I want this APU2 board for pfSense? | 19:48 |
| daftykins | m0nkey_: YES! | 21:53 |
| daftykins | hi from London \o | 21:53 |
| m0nkey_ | lol | 21:53 |
| m0nkey_ | ok, i'll order tonight. | 21:53 |
| m0nkey_ | getting the APU2C4 | 21:53 |
| daftykins | just turned up at my clients' pad in SW6 | 21:53 |
| daftykins | gotta sit in the floor as there's no furniture yet | 21:53 |
| m0nkey_ | 16GB SSD should be enough | 21:53 |
| daftykins | or on, even | 21:54 |
| daftykins | yeah tonnes, actually i did an update on my clients one down in Spain, it has a 16GB microSD in it or something? | 21:54 |
| daftykins | isn't too painful to do a slice duplication and update | 21:54 |
| m0nkey_ | I'll have to perform a full install of pfSense as 2.4 will be available by then | 21:55 |
| daftykins | funkeh | 21:56 |
| daftykins | i'm likely to suggest he get another one for here in London, then we'll have 100/100Mb fibre here, the 50/50 in Spain and the 40/5 in Guernsey - start running services between for free calls etc :D | 21:57 |
| m0nkey_ | I understand these can do GbE | 21:58 |
| daftykins | hells yeah | 21:58 |
| m0nkey_ | ok, sold. | 21:59 |
| m0nkey_ | $168 USD, APU2C4, black enclosure, 12V plug, 16GB SSD and USB to DB9 cable. | 22:00 |
| daftykins | no love for web admin? | 22:00 |
| m0nkey_ | then whatever shipping and taxes are | 22:00 |
| m0nkey_ | Need serial cable for install :) | 22:00 |
| daftykins | ah because you don't have anything with mSATA eh? | 22:01 |
| daftykins | i suppose any such other method would only be a bit of a bodge | 22:01 |
| m0nkey_ | Correct | 22:01 |
| m0nkey_ | I'm hovering over the order now button.. lol | 22:05 |
| daftykins | do it before i send the nearest canuck over to do it for you ;D | 22:08 |
| daftykins | clearly red enclosure is cooler though | 22:08 |
| daftykins | it says "don't unplug me!" | 22:08 |
| m0nkey_ | i wanted blue | 22:08 |
| daftykins | d'aww | 22:08 |
| daftykins | right i gotta do patch tuesday things on my home box remotely, biab | 22:09 |
| m0nkey_ | so i want the red one? | 22:09 |
| m0nkey_ | does it look super cool? | 22:09 |
| daftykins | sec i have a pic | 22:10 |
| daftykins | i shall PM a link | 22:10 |
| m0nkey_ | ok | 22:10 |
| m0nkey_ | daftykins: Ordered. | 22:33 |
| m0nkey_ | Now I gotta figure out how I migrate my existing config | 22:36 |
| daftykins | already got a pfsense? backup -> import :> | 22:38 |
| daftykins | didn't do too badly on a mainlander SIM for me to be online these last couple of days | 22:39 |
| daftykins | i paid £30 for a pay as you go SIM with 3000 mins, 3000 texts and 12GB data from 'Three' | 22:39 |
| m0nkey_ | not if the interfaces are different | 22:39 |
| m0nkey_ | ie.. going from re to igb | 22:40 |
| m0nkey_ | so a manual modification will be required | 22:40 |
| m0nkey_ | SpaceX is live.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iv1zeGSvhIw | 22:40 |
| diddledan | beautiful evening for it | 22:53 |
| daftykins | heyup chap \o | 22:54 |
| diddledan | ello :-) | 22:54 |
| daftykins | i feel like such a country bumpkin using the London underground | 22:54 |
| diddledan | yeah, I can't work that thing, either | 22:54 |
| diddledan | "what do you mean I'm not allowed to stand on the left?" | 22:55 |
| daftykins | my flight out of Malaga was 1hr late ;_; | 22:56 |
| diddledan | oof | 22:56 |
| daftykins | but worst of all a vending machine stole mah money and give me nothing! | 22:56 |
| diddledan | you back home now or still with us on the britland? | 22:56 |
| daftykins | *gave | 22:56 |
| daftykins | i'm still invading yeah, i'm now at my clients' new London pad | 22:57 |
| daftykins | £600k+ and it's just a little 2 bed 2 bath apartment in a gated community | 22:57 |
| daftykins | i'm sat on the floor 'cause there's nowt here | 22:57 |
| diddledan | aww :-( | 22:57 |
| daftykins | he's gone around and drawn in big thick black pen where he invisions furniture etc, haha | 22:58 |
| daftykins | *envisions, sheesh my typing tonight | 22:58 |
| diddledan | that sounds like a bad idea. what if it doesn't rub-off? | 22:59 |
| daftykins | well in true him fashion, the whole place is being gutted, walls moved, etc | 22:59 |
| m0nkey_ | Isn't that you're thing, diddledan? I mean, rubbing one off should be your thing. | 22:59 |
| daftykins | XD | 23:00 |
| diddledan | I refuse to comment on the basis that I might incriminate myself | 23:01 |
| daftykins | wise | 23:01 |
| daftykins | i've just fed his addy into hyperoptic.com again but it still says 'fibre to be ordered' | 23:02 |
| daftykins | some cages will be rattled 'pon the 'morrow then, methinks | 23:02 |
| diddledan | they stuck the landing on a boat AGAIN | 23:02 |
| diddledan | they're getting rather silly with their landings | 23:02 |
| daftykins | must be taking a while to bring it up the Thames ;D | 23:02 |
| diddledan | and it was in the dark! | 23:03 |
| daftykins | sure was when i got in | 23:04 |
| diddledan | they're having trouble with their video feeds today tho | 23:05 |
| daftykins | oh silly me you were referring to SpaceX, not hyperoptic | 23:06 |
| diddledan | is that image showing that it's half-way across the atlantic in 15 minutes?! | 23:06 |
| daftykins | still amused by them bringing fibre into central London via the Thames though | 23:07 |
| daftykins | i wonder what that would cost... Guernsey to London, mmm | 23:07 |
| diddledan | 3/4ths the way from launch to africa | 23:08 |
| daftykins | good lord you can hear noise from neighbouring apartments easily | 23:08 |
| diddledan | from standing in florida to africa landfall in 21 minutes. sure beats the heck out of concorde! | 23:14 |
| daftykins | =] | 23:14 |
| daftykins | y'see that talk of riding the 'BFR' for land travel? | 23:15 |
| diddledan | no? | 23:15 |
| daftykins | think it's another SpaceX pipe dream | 23:16 |
| diddledan | well hyperloop is another of elon's attempts so it isn't surprising, I guess | 23:16 |
| daftykins | guy has too much goin' on | 23:17 |
| daftykins | i mean how do you even position that many pies to keep your fingers in them all in one go? | 23:17 |
| daftykins | alright i best sleep, there is stuff to be do | 23:18 |
| daftykins | toodles \o | 23:18 |
| diddledan | nn | 23:18 |
