@jokerdino people say whatever they wanna say man, but i'm indian if that's what you're asking || @Avery i'd at least like to read the wiki before doing anything funky

jokerdino

What's your mum's maiden name?

And name of your first pet too.

Nathan Osman

So some further digging was done and it appears the initial SYN packet is not ACK'd for a really long time.

Also, I just realized I need to install fail2ban on my desktop now.

Random SSH login attempts from China.

ಠ_ಠ

jokerdino

@SumeetDeshmukh no, I mean is that a spanish word?

Avery

5:36 PM

@NathanOsman that's to be expected when you expose ssh to internet

Sumeet Deshmukh

@jokerdino google traslate says, Manjaro is "Manbird"

Nathan Osman

@Avery It's annoying.

Sumeet Deshmukh

don't know what that is, and don't wanna know

Avery

@NathanOsman it is but meh

Seth

Byte Commander

5:37 PM

ARGH

Avery

I just realized someting

Byte Commander

Now it stopped working in Chromium as well

Avery

My main VPS I spun up a year ago still doesn't have fail2ban to this day

cl-netbox

@ByteCommander works in chromium here

Nathan Osman

@Seth I do.

jokerdino

5:39 PM

@cl-netbox They let you know that they use it.

Nathan Osman

But port 22 needs to pass through for remote access.

cl-netbox

@jokerdino ah okay :)

Avery

@Avery there, fixed.

Zanna

@SumeetDeshmukh I try not to trust Google Translate too much

Avery

I last "used" it on my RHEL box which it didn't work even after a ton of fiddling around

jokerdino

5:40 PM

@SumeetDeshmukh pajero is bird in español. Not sure about this manbird.

maybe I got that spelling wrong.

Sumeet Deshmukh

@Zanna What can we trust then? @jokerdino I thought Pajero was car.

Zanna

Good name for a car

TheWanderer

@jokerdino no, es pájaro

Seth

@NathanOsman 1st rule of public SSH: Don't use port 22.

TheWanderer

use 23 :D

Seth

5:42 PM

@TheWanderer ಠ_ಠ

jokerdino

@TheWanderer thought so

Zanna

@SumeetDeshmukh I trust @jokerdino

Wat.

Yes.

5:42 PM

yes

TheWanderer

@Avery exactly

Sumeet Deshmukh

@Zanna for translation?

Zanna

Yes

jokerdino

Pajero becomes Montero in Spanish speaking countries.

@Avery yes

TheWanderer

Pajero is a Mitsubishi car

Pájaro is a bird

Sumeet Deshmukh

5:43 PM

Seth

No

Nathan Osman

@Seth The "quacken" duck?

TheWanderer

in Android on Stack Overflow Chat, May 2 at 13:35, by WarrenFaith

ATTENTION: Who ever just mass starred here: If this happens one more time, I will not rest until a mod has punished the ass out of you!

Seth

Avery

hmm

Kaz Wolfe

5:45 PM

@TheWanderer ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

jokerdino

TheWanderer

Kaz Wolfe

@TheWanderer complains one of the biggest star farmers in AUGR.

Byte Commander

You could do duck rubbing...

Avery

TheWanderer

Nathan Osman

So, I came up with a super original name for the phenomenon whereby everyone stars and mods try to clean it up: Star Wars: the Mods Awaken.

Catchy, huh?

2

TheWanderer

Kaz Wolfe

5:50 PM

Nathan Osman

"something"

TheWanderer

dafuq

Kaz Wolfe

WE DID IT REDDIT

jokerdino

Wrong window.

Nathan Osman

Perhaps it's the same window, only the wrong tab?

Avery

5:51 PM

Y-y'all got any more of them stars people?

2

jokerdino

TheWanderer

Nathan Osman

Avery

@TheWanderer sorry, star withdrawal has some adverse effects

Nathan Osman

I have starred very little.

Zanna

@jokerdino you stole Nathan's screenshot

jokerdino

:(

Nathan Osman

He didn't even re-upload it :P

Oh I'm late

:D

He stole mine.

5:56 PM

You made this? I made this.

TheWanderer

hue

Kaz Wolfe

i had no part in this... i was just being cruel rofl.

Nathan Osman

@KazWolfe You need to try harder.

Zanna

I was gonna say he can't have starred his own post, but technically he can...

Nathan Osman

5:56 PM

Yes and no.

I can star it only by pinning it.

And someone surely would have noticed that.

jokerdino

I can star it by pinning and then removing it.

Kaz Wolfe

^

jokerdino

^_^

Nathan Osman

Yes, but the point is that it would have been pinned at some point.

Kaz Wolfe

Zanna

All this looks like garbage on mobile

jokerdino

6:00 PM

#mobile chat matters

Kaz Wolfe

@jokerdino no it doesnt.

mobile are second-class citizens.

jokerdino

BIG if true.

Kaz Wolfe

or is that devicist?

Nathan Osman

"User Complains About Mobile Chat - You Won't Believe What Happens Next..."

David Foerster

@jokerdino I meant tropical or subtropical climates which often only have two seasons as far as I remember school. U.K. is temperate and has four seasons.

jokerdino

6:04 PM

India has 3 seasons

Sumeet Deshmukh

indiatourismecatalog.com/india_climate_weather/…

Zanna

@DavidFoerster the wet season, the wetter season, the even wetter season, and the wettest season

Sumeet Deshmukh

@Zanna you forgot the grammatically correct "most wettest" season

Zanna

Grammar cringe

jokerdino

@KazWolfe would have been nicer if there were exactly nine SHOGs.

Zanna

6:09 PM

:)

jokerdino

@Zanna grammer*

Zanna

@SumeetDeshmukh takes notes

@jokerdino thx

jokerdino

don't be rediculous

David Foerster

Finally I remembered that there's an easily accessible encyclopedia for these things according to which India has subtropical climate in the north and centre and tropical climate in the south with 4 seasons: winter, summer, monsoon, post-monsoon.

Sumeet Deshmukh

@Zanna I was searching the meaning of "Grammar Cringe" and got some pretty interesting stuff

Zanna

6:13 PM

Why do you believe some white man book over the witness testimony?

David Foerster

@KazWolfe You're giving me nightmares.

Seth

@Zanna Excuse me?

Zanna

@SumeetDeshmukh lol I was just cringing because of the bad grammar

Sumeet Deshmukh

@DavidFoerster you're actually right, Delhi and upper sides of India have different type of weather than middle parts (where I live)

Seth

hahaha

Zanna

6:14 PM

@Seth jokerdino said we have 3 seasons, David said well I found this book and it says you got 4

Sumeet Deshmukh

@Seth Dbrand guys are really creative

Seth

@Zanna Choose better words. You just called Wikipedia a "white mans book". If that's how you see it.. talk about dismissing all the contributions non white people have made to it.

@SumeetDeshmukh They really are.

David Foerster

@Zanna "post-monsoon" sounds like something that nobody outside of geo-sciences uses.

Zanna

@Seth oops should have clicked

jokerdino

post monsoon is winter for North India and monsoon for south India.

Seth

6:16 PM

@Zanna what do you know. The reference for the section David quotes is the India Meteorological Department. Don't jump to conclusions. Especially racist ones.

David Foerster

Maybe it's not considered a separate season by most people living in India for practical reasons but it makes sense from a meteorological point of view.

Sumeet Deshmukh

@DavidFoerster these seasons are posted on Wiki but common people don't have knowledge about it.

Zanna

@Seth :( will try harder

Seth

no worries.

Sumeet Deshmukh

@DavidFoerster In literature we're taught about 4 season (that means you're right) Vasant = Spring, Grisham = Summer, Patzad = Fall and Sheet Ritu = Winter.

Nathan Osman

6:20 PM

This is bizarre now.

It appears to be a problem with my desktop.

I can connect via SSH instantly from other hosts.

What weird thing is my desktop doing...

jokerdino

@SumeetDeshmukh no, that's really British

Sumeet Deshmukh

@jokerdino I tried to find rough meanings of those Indian words

I said Indian words and Indian isn't a language :o

jokerdino

"How do you say hello in Indian?"

Hello

Sumeet Deshmukh

@jokerdino probably just like that, with weird creepy Indian accent

jokerdino

hallu?

Sumeet Deshmukh

6:24 PM

@jokerdino exactly yes! we just change random vowels from here and thr

jokerdino

saar, please do the needful.

Sumeet Deshmukh

@jokerdino even when we try to fake some polish accent , the minute we say something indian we're back to our roots

I literately Laughed out Loud (lol) on your msg. I didn't smiled a little then stopped (SALTS)

jokerdino

I am sorry

Zanna

if you only SALTS it's not even worth mentioning imho

jokerdino

SALTS

Sumeet Deshmukh

6:31 PM

@jokerdino why?

askubuntu.com/questions/900785/… what do experts think? Is it possible to do? I just wanna add bounty on it if it's possible.

Is sending links to your own questions unethical in chats? because it's nothing but gathering attention in a different way?

Zanna

I think it's completely fine in moderation

Sumeet Deshmukh

6:50 PM

@Zanna thanks for that, going for bounty
