9:00 PM

whew :p

@Zacharee1 I have root, need bootloader unlock.

@Seth darn

@Zacharee1 ಠ_ಠ

I wonder if that could help with it though....

@Seth :3

I believe the big problem is that Verizon enforces boot image signatures.

9:02 PM

TIL how complex and powerful git rebase can be.

(I may have used "git push -f" a couple times. Shhh... don't tell anyone.)

@Seth which is the primary repository on GitHub for Unity Tweak?

Search is turning up more than one...

@NathanOsman github.com/freyja-dev/unity-tweak-tool

Okay, thanks.

Q: Ubuntu 12.04 end of life support options

Do I have any support options after Spring 2017 when Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin is set to end of life? I have a client needing extended support.

Q: How to install gThumb in Ubuntu 16.10?

gThumb isn't even in the software center - how do I install it in 16.10?

software-installation 16.10 gthumb

9:14 PM

As soon as he posted it he commented with:

user136984

sudo apt-get install gthumb - of course! — user104140 28 mins ago

@ParanoidPanda I think that is a no-repro... maybe I'm a bit harsh

voted

user136984

@Zanna: Yes, that's what I did too.

ah good, saw there was one already

user136984

What is the unicode value for the Swastika?

user136984

9:24 PM

I need to block the character in a program I am making but the code requires the unicode value and I don't know what that is.

Have a look at Wikipedia:

The swastika (also known as the Hakenkreuz, gammadion cross, cross cramponnée, croix gammée, fylfot, or tetraskelion) (as a character: 卐) is an ancient religious symbol and the Indian symbol of peace and continuity that generally takes the form of an equilateral cross, with four legs each bent at 90 degrees. It is considered to be a sacred and auspicious symbol in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism and dates back at least 11,000 years. It continues to be commonly used as a religious symbol in Indian religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Western literature's older term for the symbol,...

need some help

user136984

@MarkYisri Right, thanks! :)

user136984

Ah yes, the Unicode values are listed there.

user136984

Under the Chinese section apparently.

user136984

That's strange, I didn't know they had anything to do with it. I thought it was Indian, Buddhist, and Nazi (all different meanings obviously -- the first two in the list used it as a peace symbol)...

9:33 PM

Curious, is there a C programming room on Stack Exchange?

@NathanOsman I made Cloud9 work. Just had to update Chrome

Ah.

C

C stands for Control.

Off-topic, but has anyone (especially Gmail users) been receiving this kind of email

@IanC i pushed to git a new file. gnome sort. it's sort of old homework, but i put a spin on it and split a few parts into functions. Feel free to play with the code.

  Nice meet you i'm Ms happie you look nice on fb how you doing i hope fine?

It's really weird

@MarkYisri Nope, but I'd flag as spam immediately.

9:45 PM

@MarkYisri typical spam with hopes of phishing you out, nothing weird about it

Can I get some VTCs here: askubuntu.com/questions/841426/cant-install-windows-from-usb

@MarkYisri sounds like a nice person, totally worthy of your trust and friendship, and he said you look nice! Come on!

@Serg I'll take a look! :)

@AndroidDev sure

for what reason?

I was being ironic about Ms happie, before I terdon here and end up making you get phished :p

@IanC I know

@IanC you changed your logo?

9:47 PM

aaand another person starred my udisks-indicator repo ^_^ happeh

and I received other email from her too:

@MarkYisri OT

  Nice meet you i'm Ms happie by name how you doing i hope fine? email me back for more communication okay

very weird

I think someone might be trying to steal my info

@MarkYisri I did, people were confusing me with other users a lot, so I just looked for some random surfboard photo on google to make it different :p

@AndroidDev OT for what?

9:48 PM

@MarkYisri Wait, you can't VTC because you don't have 3k rep yet.

@MarkYisri I think so, but they kind of suck at it.. haha

I can, @AndroidDev for what reason should I OT

@MarkYisri ain't nobody stole anything yet, if you didn't respond to email. Just ignore and trash it

who is called Ms happie? That's reason enough not to trust someone!

@MarkYisri OT = Off Topic

@IanC +1

9:49 PM

gosh, I really wanna skip the 3rd lecture

quizzes don't even count towards the grade

@AndroidDev I know, but when I click off-topic it gives me a bunch of options as to why it is off-topic

@Serg of....

@Serg don't be lazy, it costs you

@MarkYisri Not about Ubuntu.

Something bizarre is happening with local packets...

9:50 PM

@AndroidDev of Digital and Analog communication

@MarkYisri i had 1 hour of sleep last night. I wanna just pass out

@Serg why 1 hour?

@MarkYisri That's a flag not a CV. It doesn't actually go towards closing the question, but puts it in the CV queue if there aren't any CVs

Oh, I see

4098 bytes are showing up as 4096 bytes when received by the server.

@NathanOsman HAX

9:52 PM

@AndroidDev On localhost???

@MarkYisri i was studying till 3 am, then couldn't fall asleep because of thinking about life and self loathing, and finally managed to fall asleep at 5, but i need to wake up at 6 for college

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Serg Have you tried melatonin?

@Zacharee1 nope

Have you tried a white noise generator?

9:52 PM

@NathanOsman Well that's kinda strange.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

hey, why isn't it escaping anymore??

Errrr... wut? askubuntu.com/questions/841404/…

@NathanOsman yes. and asmr. love that stuff. listening almost every night

@Serg Turn on a noisy fan or something (or white noise gen like @NathanOsman suggested) and use melatonin

It works for smaller packets - 12 bytes in, 12 bytes out.

9:54 PM

@NathanOsman maybe they're powering @Serg's white noise generator

lol

@NathanOsman what protocol by the way ?

@AndroidDev The question will not die, as long as archive.org remains online, thanks to me.

web.archive.org/web/20161024215504/http://askubuntu.com/…

SergPPS

@Serg Straight TCP.

9:56 PM

What kind of a question this???

-1

Q: 14.04 When I Open Virtualbox Ubuntu Crash

When i open virtualbox later crash and computer reset

14.04 virtualbox crash oracle reset

@NathanOsman got wireshark ? capture the packets and see what's going on.

Yeah, good idea.

I'm very curious here.

@Serg But if he captures all the packets, then he'll receive none! :P:P:P:P

@Zacharee1 good joke

did you see my invite to CoyoteBot?

@Zacharee1 he'll be a TCP sports fisherman, capture and release them

9:58 PM

And congratulations on the Night@StackExchange script

@Serg lol

@MarkYisri yes I saw. Just don't want to join another room quite yet. I have enough to distract me and a bot isn't going to help :p

so, i can either ditch last lecture and go home, or wait 3 hours, be in class for 1 hour, and then go home

Sorry, but did you take a picture of your screen, import it into GIMP, crop it and then take a screenshot of that?? — Zacharee1 1 min ago

i also wanna burger

@Serg what burger places are there in CO?

10:00 PM

@Serg DO NOT SKIP THAT LECTURE

O)O
----

new face?

Nice ASCII face @Zacharee1!

@Zacharee1 BK,MD,Old Chicago, some others. I usually just go get one from our store on campus. The korean owners know me well

There's also alfresco greens

huh

Where I live, Burger King burgers are thinner than paper.

You can nearly see through them.

10:02 PM

@NathanOsman betcha still get sick from them though

I don't buy them :P

does someone know why he has this problem:

The official repository offers the 1.27 version, but I need 1.28, which comes with save on focus out plugin (not available in the plugins for 1.27.

Q: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: Fan works at max speed on HP Envy 6-1154er

I tried many different things. I spent days by googling and trying different steps in intention to resolve this issue. But with no success. I already asked about the issue in this question: Abnormal fan behavior: Sticking and persist on max speed (HP Envy 6-1154er & Ubuntu 14.04). It enumerates...

@NathanOsman is your problem related to this person's?

Q: How to overcome SSHFS error "Software caused connection abort" during copying files

I'm experiencing same problem on two different computers, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I am copying from server (also 14.04) over SSHFS large amount of data and files (few gigabytes). One computer is connected via LAN, second is over internet. Most of the times everything is OK. Data are copied an...

networking mount sshfs

Probably not.

10:06 PM

ok, do i save money or get a burger ? should i stay or should i go ?

if i stay it will be trouble . . .

Wireshark is showing that some of the data is truncated.

I have 4097 bytes + CRLF and the very last byte (before the CRLF) is being dropped.

well there's your 4098 bytes

but why last one is dropped ?

that should only happen if dupe packet is received

I know, it's so weird.

Aha.

what is it ?

This just keeps getting weirder.

If I send 4096+CRLF bytes, only 4094+CRLF are received.

10:11 PM

@NathanOsman what about 4095+CRLF

I'm beginning to wonder if this is caused by telnet, which I am using for sending the data.

Going for a shower. See you guys in ~30 min

@MarkYisri 4093+CRLF.

@NathanOsman what about larger amount of data ?

Good question. Let's try that.

10:13 PM

uhm, could it have something to do with the break line representation? (just thinking loud)

considering it's always the last couple bytes on the data being lost

saw two girls, one asian one white, speak quite good Japanese

admire people who manage to learn a language to some degree

Sure enough... 8192 bytes over the wire truncated to 4094+CRLF.

I think the truncation has to do with the MSS?

@NathanOsman so, buffer size issue ?

Probably.

10:15 PM

or telnet's idiosyncrasies ?

Could be telnet.

I'll check the manpage.

HOLY GOATS

@MarkYisri Yeah, WolfBot 1.1 is having issues. @NathanOsman, Python is being stupid.

I'm trying to save an Object to an array, but it's returning as None for some dumb reason.

(as in, none is getting saved, not the object)

@KazWolfe remember the Russian embasy hack ?

yes, i do.

10:20 PM

HAH

that's our guy right there

the leetest hacker around

tf you sayin?

that's obviously PoodleCorp.

ain't heard of them

@PoodleCorp

Long Live Poodles #PoodleCorp

these morons

check-out his site too, he blogged about the russian mid attack

10:27 PM

so serg

you're decent in python, right?

somehow i am not convinced in their seriousness

@KazWolfe decent . . . I'd say slightly above noob level

better than me then

I can't save an Object into an Array.

It just magically transmutes itself into None.

So have you guys heard about the camera glass on the V20 cracking?

kind of like the Nexus 6P's problem

Q: We need to improve the quality of our spam!

Recently, I've noticed a downhill effect in the quality of spam posted on Stack Exchange websites. Take this as an example (found on Space.SE): There are a great many things wrong with this artifact: There is not one capitalized letter in the entire post. (-1 grammar point.) The only pun...

discussion spam fun

WTF META

um . . . create instance of that object , and use listname.append(var)

10:39 PM

okay

   roomObject = client.get_room(room)
    roomObject.join()
    print("Joined room " + str(roomObject.id))
    roomWatcher = roomObject.watch(on_message)

    oldRoomlist = SESSION_STORAGE.get("in_rooms", [])
    SESSION_STORAGE.set("in_rooms", oldRoomlist.append(roomObject))
    print("SRL " + str(SESSION_STORAGE.all()))

code

Joined room 1
SRL {'in_rooms': None, 'bot_username': u'WolfBot', 'bot_id': 234941}

result.

what about the object creation itself ? client.get_room(room) , is this none ? is room some bad value ?

no it returns an object

or str(roomObject) doesn't return none

and it works, because the room is joined

Q: Ubuntu 12.04 end of life support options

Do I have any support options after Spring 2017 when Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin is set to end of life? I have a client needing extended support.

hmmm, try checking type(SESSION_STORAGE['in_rooms'])

10:47 PM

@ParanoidPanda maybe it is

Possible duplicate of Extended support for Ubuntu 12 — XtrmJosh 1 hour ago

i think the issue with str there somewhere, because as far asbi can see, the object is there, and it's not altered bu anything

@KazWolfe is this run off your personal machine?

yep.

@Serg before anything, it's stored as an array.

afterwards, it becomes none, which makes no bloody sense.

Here's a weird thing from Google:

I typed a search, and this happened:

user136984

@MarkYisri: Knew I'd seen it before!

10:49 PM

@KazWolfe so it actually is unset ? or does it only happen when you call str on it ?

user image

let me see

But when I click repeat the search it works fine.

And shows me the results.

Yet they are "very similar".

@MarkYisri works fine for me

I know, I think google has some weird bugs

@Serg did you go to that lecture?

@MarkYisri it's at 7pm

it's 4:58now

@Zacharee1 I was about to leave that comment too :)

my legs feel like lead

i need me bauty sleepz

especially now that i hazd my burgrs

11:02 PM

For what it's worth, text-based protocols have one killer advantage: you can interact with them by hand.

Nothing says awesome like sending an email by hand with telnet.

also, drinking coffee because yolo . . .or Yoko . . .Yoko Ono

@NathanOsman that's painful

i like mutt for command-line email spamming

Nope - It can be setup in three lines + whatever you need to write for the message body.

Strange messages coming from the stars are ‘probably’ from aliens, scientists say

user136984

Anyway...

user136984

Goodnight! :)

i only have one question about aliens and it's not appropriate for this room, so . . . .skip !

Hey guys, quick test of CoyoteBot here, won't try to hurt anything

C/start

Mr. Bot, how are you ?

@KazWolfe i came uo with new self - introduction for your bot. " Bot, WolfBot!"

totally not james bond ripoff

when I install openssh-server is it already configured?

11:12 PM

yes. It'll run ok. if you need to disable root login or stuff like that then you need to configure

@MarkYisri

I get this error:

Permission denied (publickey).

11:24 PM

I think you have to create the ssh-key first

using ssh-keygen

@Rinzwind twitter.com/ChattyCapybaras/status/790697108760322048

ooo

i should make wolfbot post tweets in here

chaatty chupacabra?

@KazWolfe No. But you can quote him in here.

but can george?

11:32 PM

@NathanOsman you should make the tweets credit the users imo

or... what you're saying is set up wolfbot to grab tweets. And then set up my own account as a bot to quote WolfBot?

That's a good idea, @NathanOsman!

lol

@Zacharee1 We already had this discussion.

chatty Chewbacca

There is a link on the Twitter account to the website.

The website has the attribution.

11:33 PM

I was not here for that

tbot.quickmediasolutions.com

^--- see?

yeah

mr t bot ?

but why not actually in the tweets?

@Serg TWITTABOT

@Zacharee1 Seth didn't like it.

11:34 PM

...

twittobat

because Batman

nananananananana TWITBAT

twitbutt, a person who posts pictures of their workout and how they are proud of their butt

@Serg I....

@Zacharee1 . . . . believe i can fly ?

11:38 PM

@Serg sigh

user image

@NathanOsman and i approve this message

:)

@NathanOsman, did you figure out what the problem with the packets was?

@NathanOsman O_0

@IanC I was eating them

11:40 PM

can we have derpy bot ?

@Serg we already have you

who speaks in lolcat and likes cheeseburgers ?

@Zacharee1 considering it was only the last 2 bytes I think it's more like an appetizer?

@IanC Seemed like telnet was clipping it.

@Zacharee1 i was gonna retire from AU

11:41 PM

@IanC yep

@Serg DONT U DAER

@NathanOsman because of the size? Any option you could use to fix it?

Didn't find one.

@Zacharee1 i see youre a Conjuring fan

wat

( in case you don't know what I'm blabbering about, in Conjuring there isna scene where a ghost yells at heroine "Dont you dare" and smacks her accross the face)

11:44 PM

coolio

Also . . .horror movis anyone ?

spelling anyone? >:)

Grammar, anyone?

my brain capacity today is too low to spell. plus I'm on mobile with oily screen after eating Lays chips . . . totally not sponsored, but plz Lays give me moneyz

chupacabra , anyone ?

@KazWolfe Your won too talk

11:48 PM

@Zacharee1 how ironic

@Serg typewriter spacing, anyone?

@Serg totally accidental

@Zacharee1 merge sorts, anyone ? ;)

ERIUGWRNGWOIRH0IGPWJRTTN

i agree

How did a zero make it in there??

11:50 PM

nope

wait, yea

H0IG

I just picked up a brand new PCI USB 2.0 card for $1 at Staples. Got to love that!

@Zacharee1 maybe you should try my random int generation function and cast it to char so you get better random function

see my github for c code

???

Uh-oh... arstechnica.com/security/2016/10/…

Does this bypass SafetyNet?

11:53 PM

So Rowhammer and Dirty Cow? xda-developers.com/…

@KazWolfe it's root. Probably not

yay, eggsploits

@Zacharee1 Root trips safetynet.

Usually. Systemless root doesn't (yet), but most root methods do.

@KazWolfe I know. That's what I was saying

oh

nevermind, misread

@KazWolfe It does. CF made a workaround, but it's getting harder

unlocked bootloaders, even if not rooted, also trip it now

11:54 PM

i just want root and Android Pay ;-;

There is a bypass for the OP3 though

At least it's a universal root! Now I can root stuff!

I'm going to have to try this with the Android emulator.

If I can figure out how that code works.

@Zacharee1 for what, root and safetynet?

@KazWolfe well for root it's universal, but for unlocked bootloader it's only for the OP3 right now

bleh.

11:59 PM

Well you're getting an OP3
