02:00 - 13:0013:00 - 23:00

1:00 PM
Nah, you just got old.
 
I'm younger than you are
 
I'm 12.
 
mentally, sure
 
pls
 
1:01 PM
but all boys are (age/5)*2 mentally
 
@RоryMcCune Yep.
 
@Flyk You remind me of those bitches in high school who said "I'm dating older guys because they're so much more mature".
 
which still means @RoryAlsop has a triple digit mental age
 
And of course those were the most immature girls the planet had ever known.
 
1:02 PM
@Simon maybe so, but their point is still valid
 
As valid as a generalization.
 
generalization is valid
 
Whatever floats your bateau.
 
In that case @Flyk the image @RоryMcCune posted is accurate for me at least…
 
because it's generalization, it means there are exceptions
the irony is that @Simon is talking to me about generalizations after making the comment "those bitches in high school"
generalizing that it's only "those bitches in high school" that have this thought
 
1:06 PM
I'm referring to a very specific group of bitches.
Which means that I could tell you their name.
 
I never even went to high school
what the hell is high school
it sounds, at least according to the words used, like a place I would enjoy
do you just sit around high all day?
at least that's one subject I would have passed
 
If you're a cool kid, yep.
 
I've never been one to fit in with the cool kids
was there a less cool place to get high?
as somebody who went to a catholic school, there wasn't actually anywhere to get high at my school
 
lololololololololol
 
it was too well monitored
 
1:11 PM
No wonders why you're in a rebellion mode now.
 
however there was a forest around the school and you could go there
eh, no, rebellion mode started before that
you could barely get away with kisses before trouble started
must have been because it was boy on girl rather than man on boy
everybody knows how much catholic priests love their alter boys
 
wat
 
wat
nearly had a major opsec breach there, with something I was going to say
way to narrow down the school you went to, to a choice of one
 
@Flyk specific school scandal by any chance?
 
what? I said nothing
nothing at all
I tell you what I did say though
it's nice and warm today
 
1:16 PM
NO IT'S NOT
IT'S COLD AND RAINY
 
I keep thinking it might be worth going to the beach and just chilling out for a bit
less than an hour drive
not going to get any music done on the beach though
nope, cya in a bit
 
@Flyk o/
 
Adi
1:33 PM
Everyday when I take the metro, I'm greeted by these
Not the best thing to see in the morning
 
@Adi What the fuuuuuck?
 
@Adi ahh the scandanavians and their weird art
 
Adi
This thing was in the center for a while
 
@Adi that's like a freaky version of the famous Belgian statue
le mannequin pis
 
Adi
According to the artist, each one of those represents a human emotion
 
1:36 PM
 
@Adi That's my exact face when I'm taking a piss.
 
1:51 PM
hum I got a "too broad close vote" on my tag cleaning meta question :)
 
That's what you get for being too broad.
 
Is that a fat joke?
 
No!
 
Fucking seasonal allergies
 
Adi
@DavidFreitag You don't like it when trees jizz in your nose?
 
2:05 PM
@Adi This year it's more my eyes than my nose it seems.
 
Kinky trees.
 
2:19 PM
@RоryMcCune It amuses me that @AviD has become known as a hipster
 
@Rhino me too, which is why I make sure to make frequent references to it :)
 
AviD.js
 
2:32 PM
wow the button thing on reddit is still going... almost 800,000 clicks and the clock hasn't hit 0
 
Adi
What's that?
 
a thing on reddit. everyone who had an account before 01/04/2015 has one click of the button
the countdown clock counts down from 60s to 0s and resets when pressed
it's never reached 0s in 21 days...
in fact it's never gone under 10s so far
it's like people kept playing that stack exchange Tamagotchi thing from April fools day for 21 days
 
It's worse than that: it's like if people could only play once.
 
Adi
@RоryMcCune Is it one press per user?
 
@Adi Yup.
 
2:35 PM
@Adi yeah and no account created after 01/04/2015 gets a press
 
I still don't understand reddit
 
so people will have more than one if they have alts but there's a finite number of potential pressers
 
What is the current record now?
 
Adi
@M'vy 8
 
@Adi huh I didn't think there were any sub-10's yet
but then I've not exactly been paying much attention
 
2:41 PM
@Adi ohhhh there's a red one then ?
> 15 seconds on 21 Apr 09:38:09 UTC
 
@M'vy ah yeah I didn't think there had been a sub 10s. amusing that people have put up websites to what is essentially an extended April Fools Joke.
 
@RоryMcCune Gotta have them stats
 
Adi
@M'vy Strange. There's some thread called Catalog
someone is claiming 8
 
@Adi does he have a red dot on the /r/button sub?
 
Adi
3:06 PM
@M'vy Hmm.. he doesn't
 
@Adi then he's lying :)

Q: Disk level encryption + compression performance?

watbywbarifWhat are pros and cons for using disk level encryption like VeraCrypt and then turning on compression on mounted (virtually decrypted) drive? It seams to me that this can even increase some performance if data is compressed very good as it will decrease size of files that need to be encrypted. Di...

Ciphertext has less entropy than compression?
 
Adi
4:12 PM
@raz That makes no sense to me.
Compressibility is lack of entropy.
The less entropy a space of information has, the more compressible it becomes.
Knowing that, we can easily see that properly cyphered cyphetext is virtually impossible to compress
(due to high entropy)
 
@LucasKauffman thanks
 
raz
@Adi haha, your logic is undeniable
@LucasKauffman damn I missed the drama
 
Adi
@raz undeniable is my middle name
 
4:39 PM
I'm so disappointed that chat is inactive right now.
 
@Flyk who says it's inactive?
 
I did read it.
 
raz
I didn't read it.
 
(so did I but I'm not saying...)
 
well I succeeded in some tanning but I got annoyed that I could not see the screen on my tablet in the direct sunlight
 
4:41 PM
anyway, I'm not allowed to offer my services in that respect - I'd be creepy
@Flyk need a better tablet, or a parasol
 
Yeah you'd be creepy.
 
parasol kinda defeats the purpose of being in the sun
 
@Flyk yarr
 
But you know what would be creepier? If @AviD said he'd do it.
 
raz
It puts the lotion on its skin, else it gets the hose again.
 
4:43 PM
Funny that you're mentioning lotion.
 
@raz that is why it is especially creepy :-)
 
yeah, a quote from hannibal definitely changes the mood
 
^^ is perhaps less creepy than hannibal quotes
 
@RоryMcCune ahh - they were very good doing this live
just sayin'
 
4:43 PM
it's fine, I'm doing it myself
 
@RoryAlsop rassin' frassin' didn't see the ticket post till too late :(
 
@RоryMcCune :-(
 
saves getting it where it shouldn't be
 
@RоryMcCune I'd have been able to get you in to the afterparty as well
 
raz
@RоryMcCune I want tickets
 
4:44 PM
@Flyk lol
 
Just so you guys know, I ate a bunch of tasty nuts.
 
and eww
 
@RoryAlsop well now I know they're still touring I'll watch out for them next time they get to scotland..
 
@RoryAlsop look at you being all VIP
 
@Flyk yeah, well, you know :-)
 
4:45 PM
@Flyk and it was only the m'fin' stranglers!
 
In Scotland everyone knows my lead singer, so it's not as difficult as you might think
 
I do, it's strange how many new friends you make when you say your pluses are available for a weekend
 
got backstage with NIN too
 
raz
@RoryAlsop I'm sure that was super cheerful
 
And this time we managed to wangle a record exec some passes, as he had been accidentally left off the guest list - which is why he gave us party passes in return
@raz very disappointing actually
 
raz
4:46 PM
@RoryAlsop That's a bummer
 
we got about 4 seconds with Trent as he zoomed by
 
there isn't all that much "backstage" going on in most nightclubs I end up in
at least not in the same way at other venues
 
But I've got VIP pass for Joe Satriani next winter, so that'll be grand
 
normally just a couple of small rooms that I totally ignore while arriving and then leaving again
 
raz
@RoryAlsop Oh nice!
 
4:47 PM
@Flyk backstage at Monster Magnet was pretty awesome though
they are a good bunch of stoners
 
I try to avoid obviously consuming in public
the worst you'll get out of me is glazed over red eyes
or big black puddles
 
@Flyk I'm always driving, so I consume a lot of caffeinated beverages
 
driving doesn't really change anything
I don't know what to do
there are still so many hours left today
 
@Flyk watch Game of Thrones
that should use some of 'em
 
meh
 
4:55 PM
@Flyk well it kind of does - it rules out alcohol completely in Scotland
 
@RoryAlsop I don't drink
so it doesn't really change anything :p
 
fairy nuff
 
"Explore Loch Ness with underwater Street View"
 
@Flyk it's black
dark as dark as dark
 
that's racist
 
4:57 PM
peaty water is pretty opaque
no it's lightist
 
right, yes, that's pretty dark
 
I call my D the Loch Ness monster when I'm taking a bath.
 
@Simon definitely no Plesiosaur, though, is it?
more like a baby newt
 
pls
 
@Simon Because neither exist?
 
4:59 PM
ha
 
@Arperum OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU DONUT
 
everybody knows the Loch Ness Monster is real
 
That was way to good to let that pass.
 
I can't believe you'd say otherwise
Next you'll say that Jesus was real
 
@Flyk He possibly was, his miracles and all the nonsense about resurrection and the like is bullshit.
@Flyk You'd do the same for a dead easy @Simon joke.
 
5:02 PM
The only way Jesus was real is if aliens are also real and Jesus was an alien
 
@Flyk It's within the realm of possibilities
 
@DavidFreitag certainly
especially since aliens are obviously real
and just don't think humanity as a species is worth their time yet
like the galactic equivilent of mold growing in a peetree dish
 
@Flyk The chances that earth is the only planet with life are actually quite low.
God donut.
 
@DavidFreitag especially since they've already found evidence of early life on Mars
 
@DavidFreitag Have you visited the Bridge lately? Or are you suffering from a case of serious autocorrectitis.
 
5:05 PM
people in here don't visit the Bridge
 
@Flyk And the presumption of liquid water on saturn's moons is certainly hopeful.
 
they're either in there or not
 
@Arperum I can't keyboard today
 
@Flyk that reminds me - I need to take it off my list of autologin chat rooms
 
@RoryAlsop because I haven't removed the rest of the network from my favorite chat rooms, I constantly have a "rejoin favorite chats" button that I ignore
 
5:06 PM
@DavidFreitag Because "God donut" has became sort of a running gag regarding the extreme autocorrect problems one specific user has.
 
@Arperum just because GnomeSlice is GnomeSlice doesn't give him the ability to steal Simon's donuts.
 
@Flyk Thank you.
GnomeSlice is a swell dude, he was in this chat briefly.
 
@Simon Yea, but he has serious issues with autocorrect.
 
the irony is, if the Loch Ness monster was actually real and showed itself, it would likely be killed for "scientific study"
 
@Arperum I don't know why turning it off isn't the first thing people do when they get a new device.
 
5:10 PM
@Simon are you kidding? I always mean Duck.
 
He's supposed to be in a lake, right? Is it too big to scout the entire area?
 
why not just drain the lake?
seems legit
 
I'm sure if someone who was interested in the monster would be rich enough, he would find out.
 
curiosity is more important than delicately balanced ecosystems!
 
@Simon loch ness is, IIRC, the deepest loch in Scotland
 
5:12 PM
@Flyk It is very deep (more than 1 km). The bottom is much lower than sea level, so any draining would be rather complex.
It would keep on refilling.
 
@RоryMcCune Deep as in your lungs would explode?
 
So is landing on the moon but they managed to do that!
 
anyway everyone knows that he has tunnels in/out of the loch to the sea, 'cause he travels on his holidays
 
Even if you build dams on the two extremities, it would still refill whenever it rains -- and it is in Scotland.
 
@ThomasPornin good point, who would want to spend that much money on achieving anything in such a third world country
 
5:13 PM
@RоryMcCune That'd be super cool.
 
@ThomasPornin although at the moment it's actually dry (for here) we haven't had rain in over a week!
 
Scientifically I cannot help noticing that Nessie sightings are correlated with areas of production of scotch.
 
@Flyk oy
 
The conclusion is unescapable: Nessie is a drunk.
 
lololo
 
5:15 PM
ooh, Nessie likes scotch
I wonder what would happen if you went out on a boat full of the stuff
 
In all those years someone would have managed to record it.
 
maybe that would work
 
@Flyk That's fucking clever!
 
@Simon there are plenty of instances of that happening
just enough skeptics to cry bullshit each time
 
@Flyk Every single footage was recorded with a toaster.
 
5:15 PM
it's like all of those people saying the governments in the western world are ruining everything and just enough followers to moot the argument
 
@Flyk ahh but you can't do that, it would be sacrilege to dump a boat full of whisky into a loch
 
@RоryMcCune it wouldn't be dumping
plus I'm sure the story of the Loch Ness monster would be worth more than Scotland's entire economy, so it's not like you'd be able to do anything about it
 
@Flyk well that's ok , so long as the whisky stays in the boat
@Flyk that's one valuable dinosaur
 
@RоryMcCune So Nessie has to get in the boat to get the wisky?
 
it's a dinosaur.
 
5:17 PM
@Arperum exactly
 
that would be such an epic off the scale find
 
@RоryMcCune Technically, plesiosaurs are not dinosaurs.
 
it's basically discounting religion and creationism
 
Does anyone want to dedicate his life with me to find out if the monster exists or not?
 
invalidating the opinion of more than half of the planet in the process
dinosaurs and creating the world in seven days can't both have happened
so finding Nessie would be big change
 
5:18 PM
@ThomasPornin yeah I wanted to say plesiosaur, but I wasn't sure exactly how to spell it
 
@Flyk God being omnipotent, it is entirely within His abilities to send his angels with celestial shovels to bury fake skeletons in the ground -- if only to make sure that believing is still a matter of faith, and not a scientific conclusion.
 
@ThomasPornin you capitalized "his", are you religious?
 
@ThomasPornin The amount of people who actually believe that is way too high.
 
@Flyk It is traditional to capitalize pronouns standing for God, or the Bear.
 
@ThomasPornin I will agree with the latter, but the former didn't earn my respect
 
5:20 PM
or Donuts.
 
raz
@Arperum you're gonna need a bigger boat
 
and if god does exist, when I meet him I'm going to ask him what the actual fuck he was doing while I was growing up.
 
raz
@Flyk Playing marbles
 
@Flyk He was making sure that you would turn into what you are now.
 
the standard circular argument of religion
moving on...
 
5:23 PM
He hasn't replied to your question, we still don't know if he's religious or not.
 
@Flyk It is more than standard; it is an elaborate set of notions that have been worked upon by the finest brains for the last 1600 years at least.
 
@Simon whether he's religious or not doesn't change that being the standard pro-religion argument
 
orly
 
It has become pretty hard to outreason the Catholic church on doctrinal grounds.
Not all religions are that thorough, though.
 
sure, of course not, because everything the Church says is irrelevent since it's a religion based on manipulating people and abusing positions of power so their priests can get their ends away with 12 year old boys
zero tears would be shed if somebody nuked the vatican
I am not going to be preached to about morality from a bunch of rapist child molesters.
 
5:26 PM
@Flyk I wrote "doctrinal". Morality is something else.
 
I know, but we started talking about religion and that's basically a downhill slope with zero friction for me
3 mins ago, by Flyk
moving on...
 
I like friction.
 
ribbed, for my pleasure.
 
@Flyk you better be careful with the anti-church stuff or these peeps might rock up
 
heh
 
5:35 PM
@RоryMcCune IIRC the movie isn't that great but that scene is legit as F.
A lot of melodrama and QQ and whatevs.
 
To quote Bill Hicks:
"Did you believe in dinosaurs?"
"Well, yeah. There were fossils everywhere. (trapdoor opens) Aaaaarhhh!"
"You fuckin' idiot! Flying lizards? You're a moron. God was fuckin' with you!"
"It seemed so plausible, aaaaaahh!"
"Enjoy the lake of fire, fucker!"
 
@Simon what movie is it from?
 
@RоryMcCune Something like H-town? It has town in it.
 
@Simon right
 
The Town, H-Town is a band apparently.
 
5:51 PM
you were so boring you literally killed chat
 
Said no woman to me ever.
 
I just said it
 
pls, we all know you're a man
 
-.-
yeah totally, I drive trucks
 
That's why FE is gone, he found out and he's super ashamed.
 
5:54 PM
@Simon And you're the FBI.
 
@Simon I don't believe I had anything to do with him leaving
 
@CodesInChaos You wanna wrestle?
@Flyk The dude was obsessed with you.
 
yes but I wasn't here at the time
 
wat
Yes you were.
 
nope
 
5:55 PM
rip
 
I was completely inactive, he became a mod, he upset a bunch of people over the gamer gate thing, quit, and then some months later I returned again
o wait, am I feichinger?
hmmmmmmmmm
 
o
 
the plot thickens
 
No you're not.
He was rude and...
Wait.
 
you're so mean to me
it's not wonder I'm mean back
 
5:56 PM
As if it hurts you.
 
it does, I cry myself to sleep every night because the internet names don't like me
 
You were mean to me this morning when I was happy to tell you about my kick drum initiative.
You started it today!
 
as a firm believer in equality, I think your behavior is unacceptable
don't you know what equality means that no matter how many times I kick you when you're down you have to be nice to me?
 
@Flyk Hahaha, I appreciate that you say that though.
 
shrug, I'm not a feminist, feminism these days is nearly as warped as Islam.
I am perfectly happy for a guy to feel obliged to give up his coat when I'm cold
 
6:00 PM
Yeah, that's a big responsibility for us.
 
yeah tis, it's the little things that matter
except your D
that's too little
 
pls
 
pls
that's not even an insult, I don't know how big your D is.
based on looking at Loch Ness monster stuff for the last hour or so I have concluded that I do not know the geography of Scotland and most of England
really? Greenland is owned by the Danish?
 
6:19 PM
I still don't know if Europe is a real country.
 
well it isn't is it
it's a union of multiple countries
 
o
 
Europe is a continent, like America
 
I tried to come up with a joke and ended up looking super dumb.
#me
 
7:05 PM
ohnuhnuh y u hate us now
 
 
1 hour later…
8:33 PM
@Flyk Yup. But they have an autonomous status and there are plans for independence (though of course the cash flow is strictly in the Danemark-to-Greenland direction, so independence is not that popular among Greenlanders).
 
 
2 hours later…
10:11 PM
@Flyk that's terrible
:-)
We had to learn all the counties and regions of the UK, countries in Europe and states in the US at school
(admittedly I may not remember them all now - plus, many have changed...wars and stuff)
 
@RoryAlsop how many states did the US have when you were in school? 13?
 
@Gilles Well, at first it was just a colony. The states came later :-)
