@OrigamiRobot Why would that spite me? I don't want a dremel. O_o

Wipqozn

Seriously though, @Fluttershy is a monster.

Fluttershy

@OrigamiRobot I never said that. I just said you didn't need no dremel.

Which, technically speaking, means you do need a dremel.

Wipqozn

@Fluttershy Why are you trying to stand in the way of @OrigamiRobot dream to own a dremel?

@AshleyNunn I had the same question, I can only assume the caller has both the yard and the daughter.

user15026

@TimStone It took me way too long to figure out what was happening here

@AshleyNunn Ambiguous use of his is ambiguous.

@Wipqozn Me too.

Man, you just missed a golden opportunity for a joke @AshleyNunn.

you should have made a sentence that required an oxford comma and then not include it.

Journeyman Geek

I glanced over and read it as "I'm baking bronies"

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn lolololol Good. Gooooood.

12:18 AM

IT just launched it twice and also gave me an erroir.

I forgot. The steam browser decided to be worse than ever and stopped letting me log into chat.

@GnomeSlice I finished downloading it before launching it.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn How did you download it so fast?

Wipqozn

@fbueckert On paper, we're supposed to get 150 down, 15 up.

fbueckert

This is the best plan I can get, short of buying TV as well.

FAE

We used to have 120 down, 10 up but they upgraded it for free this summer.

@fbueckert Yeah, this is pretty much the best deal in the country, I believe. We pay about €65/month or so for it I think? It's internet/tv/phone, though we don't really use the latter two.

The only way you can get internet that fast though is with the all in one package though.

Anyway, I remember when fiber originally came out their advertisements were emblazoned with giant 100Mbps!!!! while in the small print in the footer it states that those speeds were for local connexions only, which is completely pointless

RedRiderX

@PrivatePansy A 100meg connection to your local BBS!

Blem

12:40 AM

my connection is sold as a 50/50 minimum

is that usd?

Journeyman Geek

12:45 AM

@Blem: singapore dollars

and thats about average

Private Pansy

@JourneymanGeek Yeah, that really doesn't make sense. Presumably it's just trying to tell people that, 'hey, this thing here we're giving you can do wi-fi too!'

Journeyman Geek

holy cow.

Private Pansy

@Blem 40SGD = 32USD

Journeyman Geek

Its actually illegal to connect to a unsecured AP here?

Blem

still a lot more than my $12 a month

Private Pansy

12:46 AM

@JourneymanGeek Doesn't that make trying to connect to cafe wi-fi illegal?

user15026

@Blem I pay $28, and that is only because I split it with the people upstairs. :(

Journeyman Geek

Legality of piggybacking

Laws regarding "unauthorized access of a computer network" exist in many legal codes, though the wording and meaning differ from one to the next. However, the interpretation of terms like "access" and "authorization" is not clear, and there is no general agreement on whether piggybacking (intentional access of an open Wi-Fi network without harmful intent) falls under this classification. Some jurisdictions prohibit it, some permit it, and others are not well-defined. For example, a common but untested argument is that the 802.11 and DHCP protocols operate on behalf of the owner, implicit...

@PrivatePansy: considering a lot of older systems will automatically connect to a unsecured AP if not configured?

Blem

it is not piggybacking if it is open for public use like at a cafe that offers it out

Journeyman Geek

(which is how I knew about this AP)

@Blem: I suspect the people here didn't know how to secure the AP

since the AP set up page was in korean

Private Pansy

@JourneymanGeek Wut

@AshleyNunn I mostly mean that if you want to show them the best examples of Ghibli, that it's not a very good one.

also, what'd you think?
