12:00 AM
@RoryAlsop or ... make a machine that also makes snowballs
 
I prefer the new @TildalWave
 
cause he ain't blue?
 
huh?
 
yeah
 
@TildalWave and throw them to dogs. In the snow ;p
 
12:01 AM
@JourneymanGeek I see what you did there ( ͡◉ ͜ ʖ ͡◉)
 
@kalina me too :)
reading the site is a completely different experience, I now read stuff I'm actually interested in, before I was reading stuff others thought I should be
 
no doubt
now you just need to get on my level and just use chat while largely ignoring the sites
 
@kalina no, wait, first I have like 50 games to play through
 
lol
 
12:19 AM
well this is fun
 
@TildalWave so what have you been doing with all this new found free time?
 
I have founded and am the sole member of a 50 men fight club
 
I did some refrigerator shopping but didn't find anything I wanted
 
@TildalWave Is that the "50 games" you need to play through? :b
 
I have terrible munchies and require subsistence
 
12:23 AM
hmmm no but good point about me repeating that number 50 for some reason
dunno why
 
which 50 games?
what games do you need to play
TELL ME I NEED TO KNOW
all the things
 
@TildalWave Must be a 50 shades of grey thing
 
I hope Fallout 4 is one of those games
 
@DavidFreitag hahaha maybe
@kalina it is
 
well everybody dies in the end
now you don't need to play it
 
12:24 AM
@TildalWave I hope JC 3 is on that list of games too
 
I hope Tomb Raider is one of those games
and Rise of the Tomb Raider
 
I don't really know all the titles, but I'll start with something easy like Borderlands 2
 
(Even though JC 3 has quite a few major flaws)
 
don't play Borderlands 2 it's boring
 
tings of the greets
 
12:24 AM
also you should play Pre-sequel first
 
@TildalWave Oooh good game. Also Borderlands the Pre-Sequel
 
@kalina I don't care, I'll just stop playing it when I get bored of it
 
@TildalWave ONE MAN ENTERS. FIFTY MEN LEAVE!
 
@JourneymanGeek @Simon's mom's room?
user image

Hehehehe
 
old
 
12:29 AM
@kalina Yeah it's old, it's a picture of young @kalina
 
no iszi linked it earlier in that link in the star list
 
The best part about having a California cell phone number is the wrong number calls
@kalina Oh yeah it's from there
 
yeah I know
...
mmm watchmojo youtube channel
I needed more top 10s
 
@DavidFreitag Exploit?
 
@MarkBuffalo Nah just a random image from a link posted in here
 
12:37 AM
@DavidFreitag Usually that's how "pentesting" (ugh) works
You exploit a problem, and make the dev fix it because it's their problem
 
@MarkBuffalo Yes I know how pentesting works. Also, whats with the dislike of the term pentest?
 
we're being supportive :)
 
@TildalWave Oh, yeah, I've never actually watched that one
 
@DavidFreitag Well, @kalina and the rest of us have different concepts of what penetration testing means
 
it's only 25 minutes, but luckily Roro jr. speaks so fast you can watch it at 0.5x the speed and make it 50 minutes long :)
 
12:40 AM
@MarkBuffalo wow dick
 
@TildalWave he looks like mid 20s in this video
 
@kalina Apparently he was 37

Q: After I've plugged my phone into a computer to upload photos, can people see the photos I did not upload even after I unplugged my phone?

JacobI plugged my phone into a computer at work to upload photos using a USB, then unplugged it. I only uploaded the photos I needed, however, could they somehow see the photos I didn't upload on the computer even when I unplugged the USB after I was done? If it helps, my phone is an iPhone 5s, and I ...

 
is that like an audience of 15 people?
 
@DavidFreitag PAY ATTENTION
Also, would it be considered off-topic to post a picture of me in a drag?
 
12:42 AM
@MarkBuffalo I'M FRESH OUT OF ATTENTION TO PAY
 
@kalina 37 years of experience, a body of a 20 year old man,... that's a win win in my books
 
@MarkBuffalo It would burn our retinas... so yes.
 
at least he's mastered the use of powerpoint
 
@TildalWave Face says 16-19 years old... age is 37
 
@kalina He uses some fancy presentation software now.
Can't remember what it's called, but it's not powerderp
 
12:44 AM
My face says 55, age is 30 something
 
No your face clearly says 30 something
 
he talks like I do, at a million words a minute
 
it's pretty funny at 0.5x the speed
 
here is a massive wall of speech
which is funky because I'm struggling with the accent a little
 
@kalina Where were you when he posted that? We talked about this
 
12:46 AM
who knows
 
So Mazda made it really easy to take apart these $250 key fobs
I'm eternally grateful.
 
@DavidFreitag Why would you take apart FOBs?
That's murder.
 
Although their choice to use a coil cell holder that fits a CR2025 and not a CR2032 disturbs me.
 
@MarkBuffalo replace the battery?
 
Those fresh-off-the-boats are going for as low as $250 these days? Dammit.
 
12:48 AM
@MarkBuffalo No, they're $250 for a dozen
 
@DavidFreitag :O
 
By the time I'm done taking them apart I could be a surgeon
 
So what are these fobs? What's a FOB?
Remote control keys to the vehicle?
 
Someone sent me a hangouts message with the word "slippery" in it and it's just sitting festering in my inbox
 
Ours are like... $600 for each key.
 
12:50 AM
depends on the age of the vehicle
could just be remote unlocking
 
That's almost as bad as "moist"
 
mm moist
 
@DavidFreitag Speaking of hangouts... did you give up on the project or something?
 
@MarkBuffalo Mine is unlock/lock/trunk/alarm + keyless entry/keyless start
 
ah, yeah... those are $600 each for us. I WISH we could pay $250 and get a dozen.
 
12:51 AM
And since the battery died it's a lot more of keyed start/entry
@MarkBuffalo No mine are actually $250 each
 
@RоryMcCune handles his questions well
 
Alright I'm freezing time to go home
 
"somebody might wake up tomorrow and go... I hate the shetland tourism board"
 
@DavidFreitag OMG THAT IS BRILLIANT
go ahead, freeze time, it will be like you got home immediately
Hero Nakamura
 
12:53 AM
time doesn't feel frozen
 
@kalina how would you know?
maybe he already unfroze it
cuz he already got home
 
@DavidFreitag Can you freeze time so I can go to a bank in Japan...?
 
and to us it felt like only a second
 
because I have complete control over time
 
@MarkBuffalo heehee I made @DavidFreitag look stoopid
 
12:54 AM
ooh Rory points at people and says "correct" like he's some kind of teacher
 
@AviD wut
 
So glad I changed my phone number and gutted my linkedin
 
Look I'm cold and I'm going home.
 
20+ phone calls every single day, even at work
 
so glad I never uploaded my phone number to social medias
because I'm not stupid
 
12:55 AM
So glad I never adopted social medias
 
@kalina Well, I had some job search profiles before coming here
 
I'm glad you're freezing
 
On the various job boards
 
@DavidFreitag I guess that makes sense, if time is frozen, heat cannot travel
 
"I really hate the fact that everything's a pentest"
 
12:56 AM
you'd be violating the first law of thermodynamics
 
@AviD Oh you mean because I didn't put a comma in there
 
lol
 
@DavidFreitag Hi, Cold and I'm going home.
 
@MarkBuffalo lol
 
Look I'm far too cold to use proper punctuation.
 
12:57 AM
@DavidFreitag Hi, Far too cold to use proper punctuation.
 
@DavidFreitag oh, Cold is your last name? nice to meet you, Fartoo.
 
@AviD That went over my head I think
 
is he drinking beer at the front of class?
 
@AviD I hope we piss him off enough to warm him up
 
@DavidFreitag Mr. Fartoo Cold.
@MarkBuffalo lol
 
12:58 AM
@DavidFreitag We're only slap doing this whip because we punch love you.
 
@kalina of course, he's scottish
 
@MarkBuffalo It's literally impossible to piss me off
 
@MarkBuffalo wedgie
 
@DavidFreitag I know, it sucks.
 
Except maybe if you're a shitty driver and you're driving in the same vicinity as me
 
12:58 AM
@DavidFreitag Let's try humiliation? HAHAHHAHAHAHAH @DavidFreitag CAN'T FINISH AN ENTIRE PLATE OF BREAKFAST BY HIMSELF
 
@MarkBuffalo It was three plates of freaking food and you didn't even ask when you took that bacon off my plate.
 
@DavidFreitag Dude, I asked if you were going to eat it
 
@MarkBuffalo or how about HAAAHAAAHAAA WE CANT PISS @DAVID OFF, HE IS LITERALLY THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN PISS HIMSELF
 
^ you focking wot m8
 
@MarkBuffalo what
 
1:00 AM
@MarkBuffalo PFFFFFFT LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
OOOOOOOOOL
 
none of those benefits relate to the internet connection?!
 
how can they say those things under a banner that says "Don't fall for the hype"?!
somebody at comcast marketing must be having a laugh
 
@kalina that was a warning.
 
@AviD I wouldn't know if I'm the only one who can piss myself. I suppose some empirical data collection is necessary
 
1:02 AM
@DavidFreitag Also, that was one plate. Half of my wife's plate, all of mine, plus your bacon could be considered 3 plates. You're a lightweight.
Christopher Paul Neil (born February 6, 1975), also known as Mr. Swirl, Swirl Face, or Vico (nicknamed after the Interpol operation concerning him), is a convicted child molester. He was the subject of a well-publicized Interpol investigation of the sexual abuse of at least 12 young boys in Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand, primarily owing to the worldwide broadcast of pornographic images depicting the abuse. He was arrested by Thai police in October 2007. == Life == Neil was born in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada, and raised and educated in Maple Ridge, British Columbia. There he taught...

What a piece of shit.

?????????????
 
oh my gosh everything is on fire
 
Run! Save yourself!
And your SP4
 
oh no I mean all of these enemies are on fire
after I shot a petrol can
 
1:09 AM
That's beautiful, isn't it? Set a man a fire, and he stays warm for a night. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
 
or
don't set a man on fire and he'll chase you down with an assault rifle
set a man on fire and refill your heat meter while warming up over his corpse
 
slowly steps away from @kalina
 
only just are you backing away
 
That's right. I'll trip the rest of them in my attempt to escape so they get the heat, and not me.
 
@MarkBuffalo: FYI Einstein said his famous quote several times, with different variants. One of them is: "As I have said so many times, God doesn't play dice with the world."
 
1:19 AM
@ThomasPornin apologies. you can roll it back if you want
The post is really good either way
 
@MarkBuffalo Oh, I just say that on behalf of Leek, who is a total maniac.
 
you edited one of @ThomasPornin's posts?
YOU EDITED ONE OF @TOMLEEK'S POSTS?!
 
whimpers
 
I'm bored and cold in bed and youtube is killing me slowly
somebody talk magnetospheres to me
 
bob
wanna talk about startx error?
its a warm topic
 
1:26 AM
sorry I don't startx
 
It's currently -15°C outside
fuck that noise
 
that's not a valid temperature
 
@kalina Did you know that Mars has a magnetic field, but much weaker than that of the Earth, thereby making a very feeble magnetosphere ?
 
@ThomasPornin really how interesting
does that mean that the magnetic field of a planet is directly related to the mass of the planet?
 
@kalina no its related to how large/active the core is
 
1:32 AM
@kalina Indirectly. It is related to what the planet core is made of
 
@DavidFreitag Damn dude. It's really warm here
 
also what materials it's made of
 
And so is mass.
Earth has a big iron/nickel core
 
I knew that
does that also apply for planets that we no longer call planets
 
Mars has been aggregated from lighter material (farther from the Sun) with much less iron.
As far as we know, transneptunian objects are mostly made of water (ice), methane and ammoniac, so chances of significant magnetism are remote.
 
1:34 AM
what about the death star
would that have it's own magnetic field
 
Probably.
The generator at the centre looks like a giant tokamak
 
does that mean that if two death stars passed each other at the correct speed and trajectory they'd break their travels and go into orbit around each other?
 
At that size it would probably be beneficial to generate a large magnetic field artificially
To fend of cosmic rays and other nasty particles
 
But they would have suppressed it with layers of superconductors.
@kalina Yes, but not because of magnetic fields. They would have done so with gravitation.
 
I knew that
 
1:36 AM
Magnetic fields are not electric fields.
 
but how does that interact with time travel
 
@ThomasPornin ah, but magnetic fields and electric fields ARE connected.
@kalina we already agreed that time travel violates the 1st law of thermodynamics.
no wait, that was just freezing time.
 
I didn't agree on that
 
@kalina A magnetic field corresponds to some energy so a strong enough magnetic field ought to imply a relativistic "slowing of time".
 
so then I guess this leads to my most important question of the evening
if E = MC², where do jellybabies come from?
 
1:39 AM
@kalina hmpph. I was sure it was gonna be a comment about @Simon's mom.
 
@kalina Adiposelings?
 
@kalina From Yorkshire.
 
@MarkBuffalo eww.
really EWWWW, that actually makes scary sense.
 
@AviD what's the point, he's not here
@MarkBuffalo ...
how does cold fusion work?
 
@kalina Poorly.
 
1:42 AM
By making hot fusion colder
 
Did you know that from a photon's perspective the point of emission and the point of collision with a far off object is instantaneous even though it actually took time for the photon to travel
 
@AviD Explain
 
The real cold fusion (the first which was named so) works by bombarding a deuterium-tritium mixture with muons.
It is real but does not achieve break-even.
It consumes more energy than it produces.
 
how does the flux capacitor work?
 
@ThomasPornin But can it be used as a forcefield?
 
1:44 AM
@DavidFreitag No. It can be used as a strong neutron generator, which is in fact a lot more nasty.
It does make some blue flashes in air.
 
in Stargate how does the Stargate work?
 
When you see the blue flash, you know that you are dead.
 
Which is interesting. My eyes are blue.
 
@kalina They give it to MacGyver, who presumably employs some grey duct tape.
 
@ThomasPornin but what about when it was Kurt Russel?
 
1:46 AM
@kalina Kurt Russel masters time travel. Wherever he is, he is in the 1970s.
 
oh
how does faster than light travel work?
 
I'll tell you last year.
 
Ffl may work by creating a fold in space-time, and going from point A to point B through a form of wormhole
 
why is it that during flight of the navigator ftl causes time to pass quicker on the outside than on the inside but in star trek it doesn't
 
@kalina Crappy writing
 
1:48 AM
oh, you just (removed)
I have to put you on ignore for 265 days now
 
K
Enjoy
 
FTL will never be possible. Scientists will just have to increase the speed of light.
 
how will scientists increase the speed of light?
 
@kalina Time never passes quick in a Star Trek episode.
 
what about Stargate episodes?
 
1:52 AM
@kalina It has been speculated that speed of light may be modified when energy density exceeds a given level, as it might have occurred in the very early times of the Universe.
 
but that's just speculation
that's like...
 
@kalina Gravity waves ?
 
It has been speculated that @Simon has a sex life as it might have occurred in the very early times of the universe
or gravity waves
what do you think about Fringe?
 
At very high energies, fundamental interactions tend to become identical; we now see electro-magnetism and weak nuclear force as distinct only as a break of symmetry when energy density fell below a critical level.
 
@ThomasPornin From this do you mean a massive explosion causing light to shine far brighter and move far more quickly? As if it sped up far more than it currently is?
We can already see an example of this ejecting from black holes, can't we?
 
1:56 AM
@MarkBuffalo All current astronomic observation point at a constant speed of light for billions of years.
A different speed (really, a different geometry of space time) would have occurred before the inflation phase, in the very first seconds of the Universe.
 
For example, supermassive black holes appear to be ejecting mass at much faster rates than thought possible, if I recall correctly.
 
At that time, the Universe was opaque.
 
@ThomasPornin But how would we get light from back at that point? Wouldn't it have to be sped up?
We are seeing light from a long time ago, apparently many billions of years... Even as far back as the beginning of the universe... Again, If I recall correctly.
Maybe my understanding of this is mixed up
 
The farthest, oldest light we see is from the time average temperature fell sufficiently for atoms to form (binding of electrons with protons) and that was about 300000 years after the Big Bang.
That's the "Fiat Lux" and we call it the "background radiation". We have no trace of any older light.
 
Ah, I see
 
2:00 AM
But we do observe (indirectly) that there is a large-scale force that drives space expansion, which is usually considered to correspond to vacuum energy.
But there, we have a discrepancy between quantum theory and general relativity by a factor of about 10^120, which is inconvenient.
 
So light moves quicker in a vacuum?
 
Physicists prefer to say that light moves slower in non-vacuum.
 
of course they do
because... physicists
 
@ThomasPornin Under what circumstances do you know of which light can move much faster?
 
"know"
"speculation"
"hmmm"
 
2:04 AM
Speculation is fine. I'd assume he'd correct that anyway
 
@MarkBuffalo Theory is that above 10^43 J/m³ of energy density, fundamental interactions merge and act together for multiplied awesomeness (like PowerRangers) and then speed of light may be greater.
 
Lmao
 
"like Power Rangers"
 
They are called "bioman" in the French translation.
 
such a technical description
 
2:07 AM
I had to look it up to find the American name.
 
@ThomasPornin But I wonder how that much energy can come into play. The event horizon of a black hole?
 
@MarkBuffalo When such things happen, you tend to notice it, because it makes a really big bang.
As in creating a Universe.
Or destroying one.
 
I like the idea of destroying a universe
 
Black holes are way too weak to be anything like that.
 
@ThomasPornin Ah, "Let there be light."
 
2:12 AM
According to the "big rip" model, which posits that space expansion powered by dark energy is a runaway process, other galaxies, then other stars will at one point seem to flee us faster than light (and we won't see them anymore).
It is not technically FTL travel because it is not travel; it is the geometry of space that gets fatter.
 
The expansion of the universe?
 
mmm yay
thanks for all of the really interesting but largely uninteresting to me things
now I might actually fall asleep
nn
 
In the final moments, the expansion will separate our individual particles each in its own isolated bubbles, with all other particles having fallen beyond their horizon.
 
@ThomasPornin I had an insane theory that perhaps, if you were to zoom out far enough, and see the rest of the light in the universe, the entire universe may appear to be Galaxy shaped
And we'd all be orbiting something massive in the center
But that the so called expansion process is just the rest of the universe orbiting away from us
So all the combined galaxies would actually be part of a super colossal mega Galaxy
 
@MarkBuffalo Notwithstanding the definition issues with "the rest", measures of the observable Universe show that, at very large scale, matter is spread like a rather uniform foam.
 
2:16 AM
This is, of course, a theory, and one which might be completely insane...
@ThomasPornin isn't a typical galaxy spread like that as well?
 
@MarkBuffalo From what we think we know right now, your theory lies mostly beyond the horizon, i.e. in parts that are forever unreachable, and thus do not scientifically exist.
Thus, that theory cannot be confirmed or denied. It is not insane; it is merely religion.
 
@ThomasPornin You're opaque.
 
@Simon I certainly hope so !
It is very unhealthy to be transparent.
 
Hehe.
Some jellyfish would beg to differ.
 
@ThomasPornin Indeed. I do enjoy thinking about what ifs, and it's nice to discuss these things
Maybe some day, proving or disproving these theories won't be forever unreachable. I don't know, though.
 
2:24 AM
@Simon Body is 98% water -> jellyfish. Body is 98% whisky -> Scottish.
7
 
@ThomasPornin Haha.
 
Body is 98% frozen -> Canadian
@Simon What's the temp there this year anyway? Here it seems a bit too warm nearly all this "winter"
 
@TildalWave It is super bipolar, the current/next week is a good example: meteomedia.com/tendance-meteo-14-jours/canada/quebec/montreal
This week is pretty much the coldest it has been so far.
 
fuck me, -24C
 
That's gonna suck.
 
2:33 AM
I've barely seen any snow this year except on Alps
kinda miss it
@Simon wait you're not from Montreal are you?
 
Literally 5 mins away from Montréal.
 
Yeah? I thought you're maybe closer to Toronto
 
Nope.
 
added to the bucket list: see Montreal
(in summer!!)
 
Yep, there's always something to do there.
Especially in the summer, yeah.
 
3:02 AM
@Simon It's -15°C outside right now
 
3:46 AM
@DavidFreitag Really warm here. My sincere apologies.
 
@MarkBuffalo lolwut
 
-5.5c
 
I'll give you a sincere lobotomy
@MarkBuffalo Oh yeah, real warm.
 
Relatively speaking
 
4:07 AM
@O'Niel You probably shouldn't post advice if you don't know what you're talking about. Not trying to be offensive or anything, but it's often clear you're a newcomer to many things
At the very least, research what you aren't sure about.

8:36 AM
@Simon - it was -4 this morning when I got up. Lovely and crisp.
 
@kalina yeah I have this theory that, for some reason, I look younger on video
@kalina I actually really like getting heckled/asked questions during a talk, makes it more interesting :)
 
@MarkBuffalo ha that's like my cat
 
that was a long nights transcript...
morning all
 
morning @Rоry
 
@TildalWave watcha'
 
8:47 AM
nothing much, sipping through my cup of coffee and generally wasting the time
currently trying to figure it out why a fox thinking a white sheet is snow looks nearly identical to my cat thinking there's something moving under the sheet
 
@TildalWave ahh, I'm starting an App test this morning, so that's always fun :)
@TildalWave heh it does look a bit like that
 
also, @MarkBuffalo congratulations for killing everyone on a download capping network :D
76 MB gif LOL
not the worst I've seen tho, I think @DavidFreitag posted once an over 200 MB one
 
@TildalWave Huh? When?
 
Morning
 
@DavidFreitag from some race car game or something
I think it was you
morning @Matthew
