| tomreyn | <TJ-> from now on I'm going to ask for output from some cryptic command that reveals the distro and cannot easily be spoofed! | 14:22 |
| tomreyn | that'll be the one question you never get an answer on. ;) | 14:22 |
| TJ- | hehehe well that is the point really :D | 14:22 |
| TJ- | self deselection | 14:22 |
| tomreyn | then i hope your ability to resist the urge to still support people will be stronger than mine! | 14:23 |
| tomreyn | but i took a siumilar strategy, and it helps prevent such frustration to a degree. | 14:24 |
| daftykins | never forget the CentOS guy that let the truth slip by sharing the shell formatting with [ ] | 14:24 |
| TJ- | hehehe yeah | 14:24 |
| jeremy31 | apt policy base-files | 14:25 |
| TJ- | nah, it doesn't want to reveal any 'ubuntu' strings :) | 14:26 |
| TJ- | There's a package installed even in minimal with a file that hasn't changed in years; hash that :) | 14:26 |
| jeremy31 | but Mint and Kali have their own versions of base-files | 14:26 |
| TJ- | jeremy31: yeah I know; my point was if someone doesn't see an ubuntu string in a result they may just clue in and report one from Ubuntu | 14:31 |
| TJ- | whereas a hash would take more time to collect/generate in most cases :) | 14:32 |
| jeremy31 | use apt policy base-files | nc termbin.com 9999 | 14:32 |
| tomreyn | let's add a computationally expensive hash mechanism to the execution only if it turns out not to be ubuntu!!!111 | 14:42 |
| TJ- | great idea tomreyn | 14:44 |
| isapgswell | did anyone try nvidia ondemand profile? | 23:44 |
| isapgswell | external monitor connected into nvidia | 23:44 |
