@Xander I'm not sure. Olaf (our stand in for Emmett who was away looking after his new baby) was the first to speak, and Erik spoke most. Apparently I'm the one who sounds like a frog on weed...which is disappointing :-(
@Xander It was really good fun - very chilled out. They had asked if we could be extra silly, and we said, "Sure - if you replace the water on our table with champagne or Jack Daniels" :-)
@Kisunminttu you'd like the companion cube ice cube trays I got...
@Adnan I am not sure how to. Will try and figure it out later...
Any version before 4.3 has be summarily deprecated with the nice Skype can't connect helpful notification. New version dropped Alsa, dropped notify-send for sni-qt.
Great! Fucking great!
No more Skype calls for me because PulseAudio doesn't like my laptop's sound hardware
@RoryAlsop Ha ha ha, I've seen the video of your Securi-Tay talk, and that is not how I'd describe your voice. The Ewan McGregor impersonator was the second to speak, I believe, so Erik, I'm guessing.
Heh. I've gotten some interesting responses from folks who have plagiarism in there answers, but I don't think I've ever been told to essentially "mind my own business" before.
Please mind your own answers. Thank you. We are all manufactures - making good, making bad or making excuses. You can't answer anything without learning anything. — Rohan Chaubey3 mins ago
@Simon possibly although try talking to an e-mail admin about some of the weird corporate meeting stuff that outlook supports and other clients struggle with...
@Xander yeah after a while I'm happier just getting stuck back into it, although been trying to work a bit on some of my scripts at the mo' useful prep.
@TerryChia well assuming it's common across the team @deed02392 said it's a high-end dell lattitude , Core i7 + 16GB +SSD so can't complain there
@TerryChia phone wise no idea but my guess is iPhone
There was a scene where the biblical Noah travels to visit his ancient grandfather, Methuselah. Damned if it wasnt @RoryAlsop in a wig.
oh lordy lordy lord.
this from a vendor response to a reported SQL injection in their product:

Selling a couch on craigslist Buyer wants to pay by PayPal. OK. Buyer also wants to add an additional 450 to pay the movers because it's a "business account". OK.
Buyer says she sends payment. Not received. "Check your email" she says. "I checked the site, it's not there." "Check your spam folder"
There's an email in spam. Gmail says **this is a scam**. Yep. "Paypal" in the email says we need to go to walmart to get a money order and send it to florida
@AJHenderson I'm pretty sure the scam relies on the hope that the person will be extremely greedy and will do anything to make the sale because it's moar money!
@DavidFreitag most of them have some semblance of sense to them
such as sending a check that will bounce after you've already sent your good check
or downloading software because "you haz 1 billian viruzez"
@tylerl oh, I think I see now, so they claim that you can't receive payments because you need to send Paypal money and they give an address they can access as the address for PayPal?
Recently, we've been asked by Audit Dpt. to have financial risks controls in our ERP.(fraud like incidents)
Our question is if this request is covered by the scope of Information Security Dept?
If so, i think a set of tests should be developed with IT and Finance Dpt.
So, What are the competenci...
@AJHenderson Amazing isn't it - you'd think they would at least try... although there is good intel that it is deliberate, to weed out the vaguely intelligent at an early stage: anyone who continues can probably be bilked :-)
@AJHenderson @RoryAlsop Yeah, the bit AviD linked to was from a Microsoft study, where they determined that was the case. They make them intentionally bad to weed out anyone who has any sense at all. They only want the most gullible and greedy to respond.
"being in Scotland; potentially meeting more Rories than any normal human can cope with; meeting whiskies at source;" you just repeated yourself 3 times.
Summary: a large particle accelerator (it would have been an 87.1 km ring, much larger than the LHC) ran into trouble because local ants were munching at the cables.
The SSC was never finished; it was cancelled due to budget pressures. It is not known whether the ants were the main culprits.
