12:00 AM
@DavidPostill I'm looking into another camera equipment upgrade but I'm still limited by the funds available to me.
 
ffs
i just choked myself on water
@BenN doesn't work for steam links
i also like the fact that none of my family came rushing to my aid
> have a glass of water!
THAT'S WHAT I BLOOODY CHOKED ON IN THE FIRST PLACE!
 
@Burgi Huh, it seemed to work for me with either PNG or JPG
 
@Burgi at least they weren't hovering around, waiting for you to sicken and die, so they could feast upon your rotting corpse.
 
@BenN ah i see what you did now

12:15 AM
i blame the lack of oxygen, sorry
 
Also, someone commented it was in the HNQs
@Burgi water is mostly oxygen by weight. You clearly are slacking off.
 
heh
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek and here I am spending time trimming it -_-
 
;p
red freehand circle > all
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek readable onebox!
 
12:21 AM
red freehand circle
 
Compromise.
 
hm. Acceptable
 
 
1 hour later…
Bob
1:34 AM
@JourneymanGeek aww, you totally ruined my ONE MILLION YEARS DUNGEON attempt :P
 
what? ;p
 
That raises more questions than it answers.
 
Bob
(I just remember parts of it... can't listen to it right now, so I hope these are right.)
 
I've never been able to watch adventure time
 
Bob
1:40 AM
neither have I :P
 
(i'm a snob and the art style bothers me)

You turned the safety system off and then you wrote a bunch of garbage into memory you don't own. At this point anything can happen, so the answer to "why did X happen?" is "X happening is consistent with anything can happen". You lost the right to live in a predictable world when you turned the safety system off and then abused the privilege. — Eric Lippert 7 hours ago
I feel that answer is applicable to far too many SU questions...

!!/wiki Undefined behavior
 
In computer programming, undefined behavior (UB) is the result of executing computer code the behaviour of which is not prescribed by the language specification to which the code adheres, for the current state of the program (e.g. memory). This happens when the translator of the source code makes certain assumptions, but these assumptions are not satisfied during execution. The behavior of some programming languages - most famously C and C++ - is undefined in some cases. In the standards for these languages, the semantics of certain operations is undefined. An implementation is allowed to assume...
 
2:14 AM
The moment you add an unsafe code block to C# code, you introduce undefined behavior into a language otherwise designed to be well-defined in virtually every scenario.
 
wtf...
> • PACK OF TWO TEA TOWELS • VEGAN FRIENDLY
vegan friendly tea towels?
 
!!/wiki Tea towel
 
A towel is a piece of absorbent fabric or paper used for drying or wiping a body or a surface. It draws moisture through direct contact, often using a blotting or a rubbing motion. In households, several types of fabric towels are used, including hand towels (small towels placed by a sink for drying the hands), bath towels (large towels for drying the hair and body after a bath or shower) and kitchen towels, which are used for drying dishes. In warm climates, people may also use beach towels, which are large towels used for drying off after swimming and for placing on beach surfaces. Common household...
 
2:31 AM
tea towels are towels for drying the washing up
 
@Burgi more vegan friendly than a 5 pound bill?
 
shrugs
i'll be honest i didn't think that tallow was used in the manufacture of plastic
 
and probably other things
But then again, I often use coconut oil as a lubricant for things around the house, and I didn't know you could until last year ;p
(learnt that from gun blogs ;p)
 
are guns vegan friendly?
 
Depends on what you shoot.
 
2:44 AM
lol
@JourneymanGeek vegans mainly...
 
and what sort of guns. Interestingly en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…
@Burgi prolly not
 
we are getting the 27" screens this week now that the B2C team has all left

A: How much would it cost in U.S. dollars to brute force a 256 bit key in a year?

PhillipAnything is crackable if you take one part of the whole. The key is made up of "parts" and if you treat it as such it can solve your problem faster. Table the data then move forward simultaneously. 128 bits at 8 bits with 16 threads with 1.3 flops a minute with a true 2.67 ghz cpu can crack 128 b...

it reads like they just threw random numbers together and called it a day :P

wtf
 
4:18 AM
ta da made a new about page about.hacktohell.org
 
why is it a subdomain?
 
www has my old blog
 
ah ok
you know what, amazon has a terrible UI
 
Dog
Ironic
Many years ago I was taught Amazon as a prime example of good web design and excellent UI
 
I would say it's still good, it lacks proper filters for categories though
 
4:34 AM
it has grown organically
 
Dog
#NoFilter
 
i hate it when i sleep straight after dinner
i then wake up at midnight and can't get back to sleep
 
Bob
yay
so, one of our servers was running with 0 bytes free space on C:
I'm surprised Windows was still up...
 
Dog
@Burgi Me too
 
my body clock seems to need a 30 hour day :S
going to try a snooze before work

To snooze is to work

hey at least its free from landlines!
 
10:25 AM
On the phone smileys name looks like dismil (dismal)
 
Hello!
 
woah
 
Today i am poor little rich dumass. Benifactor to ~$half a mill i am freezing my butt off in the (estate) garage , huddled together with the 2 dogs who would damage said estate. Probate sux donkey nutz.
 
Bob
\o/
Build succeeded, no errors... what is this sorcery?
 
10:38 AM
My lawer is a complete idiot (but cheap) , i got about $10 left, the (bastard) bank has finnaly realised that the dude died, even thoughthey were told 3 frickin times, and have a death certificate on record. They realisex it Only when the payments didnt come in
Everyone that i have dealt wigh in any of the processes has either been lazy as f--- or just as incompetent , plus not actually doing thier job.
 
@Bob LIES
 
when are they gonna invent a tagging filesystem for windows...
 
Bob
When there's a use-case for one that gets it out of the -100 point hole.
Or you could, y'know, write your own filesystem filter driver.
Or use ADSes or an external database to manage them with a custom UI.
 
yeah, I'll wait for Google or someone
but I don't get why it doesn't have a million points already
I hate my folders
they restrict my creative spirit
 
10:55 AM
I was writing a program right now in code blocks in linux and all of sudden codeblocks got closed, It happens quite often with codeblocks what could be the possible reason? my laptop is connected to power so I don't think it will be because of that
 
@Psycogeek yeah wife is waitign for a small amount of money here
I get that things need to be checked
but my god don't they make a mess of it
 
Even though this probate case is the most simple that could exist, everybody and everything only gives a leap about thier own interests. EX the court appointed referee (assesor) doesnt even look inside the real property (house). That is what he openly stated. My guess is he never actually moves off his computer, for real
 
nod
well least you'll get something nice at the end @Psycogeek ?
btw is there anyone ele who has a claim to this property?
if not, and I was you, I would say screw it and gain access
@DenisKa check dmesg
it maybe OOM'ing or something

@Psycogeek rofl
 
11:03 AM
@djsmiley2k a huge list of processes(or something like that) but it is mostly my network interfaces and a bit of VBOX
 
The (see dumass in dictionary) realtor was told that NOBODY would be allowed inside the house until the construction (paint carpets and patches) was completed. Then the realtor convinced me that this 1 high end buyer would understand , and we should show him the house any way, with me mousely objecting
Next day mr Realtor says (something like) why was it a construction zone, and it was wrong to run a client through. Yea like no sh sherlock
All the people who want to nickle and dime the whole thing away (everyone and thier fees) Also want the whole thing to be "dump and run" but the only way there will be a nickle when it is all done, is if every effort has been made. I am starting to employ the phrase"killing the golden goose" as they shoot me and themselves in the foot with thier greed and lazyness.
 
11:26 AM
If
 
@DenisKa you want to check it immedately after the crash
to see if there's a message about it
 
Every once in a while i think i am dealing with amazon tribesmen who ran across a dead compadre. And only think about stealing his nose bone (-:
But then i am presented with the need to fill out more Forms and to account for every nickle spent , and realise that yep still in hell , and no amazon women to console (-:
 
11:42 AM
Would you choose 'DEATH BY SNOO SNOO!' ?
:D
 
Yes. I was mostly hoping to die in the wilderness
And be eaten by wolves
I suppose being eaten by 2muts after freezing to death is close enough. The dogs love meatcicles
 
11:58 AM
Today I was watching Snowden..quite informative movie
 
@DenisKa codeblocks might suck.... ;p
 
I used to think that NSA can access data from only those servers which are located in America. I wonder why google, facebook, Twitter, Apple, Microsoft agree to give them data of their data centres which are not in America
 
This is good. You know there are people who will loan a bit of cash, to known benefactors/heirs . I asked the %rate and it ammounts to 50% yearly interest rate , or another 1/2 the money loaned. The funny thing though , they call it a discount rate . Not a fee or loan sharking interest.
 
ouch
 
:34232010. Thats thier own quandry , the NSA legally and as stated by them in defence , is not allowed to spy on americans , unless they are terrorists. So in reality we mericans expect the opposite, for them to spy on anyone but constitutionally protected americans. In or out of the shower or bed (-:
 
12:11 PM
"Can we please just be friends?"
Uh... um... what??
 
@Rahul2001 No more kissing? :(
 
@DavidPostill Had our last kiss today :(
9
Her parents... put too much pressure on her
This is not right
 
Bob
that's... a weird time to get friendzoned
 
Yes, very
 
:/
how old you again @Rahul2001?
 
12:14 PM
15
 
Our forefathers would be haunting them , if they knew we were paying the guberment to monitor who is spanking the monkey on what porn site. It is all just so wrong on many counts.
:34232224. Ahh dont worry about the Just Friends statements
When your the last man on earth , youll be more than friends
 
@Rahul2001 ow
But well, you're 15
there's either other birds in the sea.
fish?
 
Dogs!
I want my dog back :/
 
Dogs will always love you.
Even if you're gone for forever 5 minutes.
 
@Rahul2001 She stole your dog?
 
12:20 PM
What happened to your dog?
 
My dog died this year :( I really miss her...
 
oh.
My condolences.
 
2016 was a total mess up for pretty much everyone.
 
heh
I lost....
er...
4-5 dogs that were either family or friendly.
 
Id buy that , must-up
 
12:25 PM
One of gran's dog, my aunt's dog (who outlived my aunt and uncle, the poor son of a bitch), the 18 year old schnauzer and a mutt from dog run, and bonnie, who apparently had kidney failure at 6.
 
:(
My dog died of a kidney failure too
 
6 is much too young :(
 
Mine was just about 8
 
my gran's dog had kidney failure got much better then died. Her GSD pup misses his big bro :(
 
:(
 
12:46 PM
I've decided years ending in 6 suck
 
You know dogs can watch HD screens..so you should let them watch dog shows once a week or dog songs or dogs tv shows or dogs wwe
 
@AlanWatch specific dog.
 
not every breed?
how about 8k screens?
 
eh. Dog society's probably more about smell than sight.
Lots of dogs have terrible eyesight, and mine's smart enough to ask people where their specific dog is.
 
One dog i know who watched tv sd or hd , had red retna , as seen when the eyes reflect light , like flash pics. I believe that dog was not color blind. My own dog will have nothing to do with tv and has (mostly) green glowing eyes , and is good at night vision
 
12:59 PM
Dogs Arn't colourblind
They see with less acuity and such tho
 
If a dogs sence of smell is so good why is his nose almost touching that turd , when i could smell it 4 feet away (-:
 
Dog
1:35 PM
@Bob o_O
Yeah this is the sorta reason I wouldn't rely on OVH for anything critical...
 
Bob
@Dog well, it was a preorder
so meh
 
Dog
@BenN ah cool. Didn't know that.
@Bob yeah but an order with an estimated delivery date that was missed by months
 
Bob
@Dog true
 
/hi guys
 
1:44 PM
o/
 
I need to talk to someone. I've been noticing strange things and I don't know who to talk to.
 
a doctor maybe?
i got a new hat!
 
@Nick Tell us more
 
Bob
@Dog it's also priced far b elow local competitors while being a reasonably trustworthy provider
 
@DavidPostill I don't think I have the time to.
 
1:50 PM
@Nick Then we can't give you any advice ...
 
@DavidPostill what crazy hat have you got?
 
@Burgi The one I'm wearing? 180
 
how?
 
@Burgi It's a secret :)
 
i'll be honest i have no idea how i got mine
 
1:53 PM
@DavidPostill Absolutely true. I thought I saw trained ants, timed traffic and some other things that don't fit in the real world.
 
trained ants?
timed traffic?
 
@Burgi Close, Edit and Vote to Reopen a question
 
whut
 
@Nick Have you ingested LSD? Magic Mushrooms?
 
@djsmiley2k I don't know. Stuff appear like that, I can't explain very well.
 
1:55 PM
Hm
try words.
 
@DavidPostill How do I know if I have?
 
@Nick Because hallucinations?
Somebody spiked your drinks?
Hallucinations are where someone sees, hears, smells, tastes or feels things that don't exist outside their mind.

They're common in people with schizophrenia, and are usually experienced as hearing voices.

Hallucinations can be frightening, but there's usually an identifiable cause. For example, they can occur as a result of:

taking illegal drugs or alcohol
a mental illness, such as schizophrenia or dementia
a progressive neurological condition, such as Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease
 
@DavidPostill I know no one who'd do that.
 
Advice: Go see your Doctor
 
I'm sure that most of the things I experienced weren't hallucinations but some kind of controlled experiment, perhaps.
 
2:00 PM
obvious troll is being annoying now
 
Real insects jump-scaring me, real cars with weird shapes, people behaving oddly don't all happen randomly.
 
3 mins ago, by DavidPostill
Advice: Go see your Doctor
 
@Burgi :/ not a troll. Just wanted to talk about it.
@DavidPostill I have. I'm on medication and I haven't been experiencing any hallucinations while on meds.
 
@Nick So you see this stuff when you are not on your meds?
 
@DavidPostill I think that might be true. Hopefully.
 
2:08 PM
There are two possibilities.
You see weird stuff.
1. It stops when you take your meds - the meds are good for you
2. It starts when you take your meds - the meds are bad for you.
 
Well, I'll keep that in mind. I'm happy someone listened. Thank you.
 
You can tell the Doctor the meds are working or not working as appropriate
@Nick You're welcome. Good luck.
 
I will. See you all again. Bye.
 
or we could all disappear...
 
Well. Talking dogs.. are wierd I suppose.
 
2:21 PM
you missed 3. You never noticed it was weird until taking your meds, but the meds don't stop you seeing it, only allowed you to realise it wasn't "normal".

4. It's nothing to do with taking or not taking meds.
Either way, the advice remains 'Go see your doctor'
I once hallicinated, it was horrible :/
 
Hello! I'm back!
 
@Rahul2001 welcome back
 
@DavidPostill Possibly. Probably
 
I got a secret hat
I have no clue HOW I got it
 
2:26 PM
me too
 
Its a different hat.
 
@JourneymanGeek Which one?
 
Damn it. VARIENTS!
Where in the World
 
AU.SE is beating us :(
 
I AM YOUR FATHER
 
2:27 PM
@JourneymanGeek thats the one i got
 
>_>
No you're not.
 
@JourneymanGeek Upvote any question on any site to get it :)
 
I actually chose this gravatar only because it was good with hats during the last winter bash
 
@DavidPostill I think I commented
 
@Burgi @JourneymanGeek See docs.google.com/document/d/… for current clues on secret hats.
 
2:30 PM
@DavidPostill I'm not really hathunting ._.
 
@JourneymanGeek It could be any real "activity" on a question. Although I got it on Ask Different with even visiting the site (that could be a hat bug)
 
My eyes, and nose are on a bigger/longer term prize ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek 100k?
 
I like hats
5
 
2:31 PM
but other than reading lots of questions and not being able to answer much I'm stuck
wooo stars
 
and trying to do the "one answer a day" thing
 
I don't think chat gets enough hat love.
 
@djsmiley2k For hat love you are the wrong room :)
 
hehe
well i visited, let it be remembered in the annals of time
(I don't have time to hand around today :(
Hha
got one accidently
 
Non-perverted jokes are hard to come by on the internet now-a-days

Can you guys pass your gaze over this

A: Linking 2 wifi routers to access NAS

djsmiley2kOk this will be a little complicated but I'll make it as simple as possible. Disconnect everything (You may want to power off devices too so things don't interfere as you're reconfiguring). On the EE access point, change the IP of the actual device to be 192.168.0.2 (On the lan side, we don't c...

incase I've missed anything obvious, made a stupid mistake as I feel like i'm trying to cough out my lungs
 
@djsmiley2k pretty sure its a near dupe
but other than that, makes loads of sense
 
2:57 PM
is the elementary one, 5 first post edits?
 
Lol. "Blue in the Face" No idea why.
@Burgi 5 old post edits - I picked ones that were 2/3 years old.
 
Dog
 
This is oddly true.
Also, I won't have a grave.
;p
 
The universe is my grave
No matter how many people I share it with, it's still infinitely large :P
 
I am dirt. Made awesome.
 
3:00 PM
I am star dust.
 
hoovers @djsmiley2k
 
Dog
@djsmiley2k Yes
You forgot step 1. Buy a NAS
 
@Dog lul
I don't believe in buying things when you can just poke stuff together
@Dog also step 2. buy a switch
 
Dog
He keeps on talking about how he wants to connect to a NAS
While conveniently overlooking the fact he doesn't have a NAS.
 
3:06 PM
heh
he has a router being used as a switch which pretends to be a nas
that'll do
 
Dog
Classic XY problem
 
funny thing is...
 
Dog
The question should be rephrased "How do I connect to a NAS when I don't have one"
 
I have a router being used as a switch/ap that could pretend to be a NAS
 
The EE one has a USB port with a HDD attached, but no broadband as I've moved to sky.
 
Dog
3:07 PM
I have a cat that could pretend to be a NAS
 
tape a hdd to a cat
hdd/Cat6e
 
Dog
I would still solve the problem of how to connect it to my wifi a lot easier buy getting an actual nas
 
sure
but that takes actual money
 
Dog
 
Dog
@JourneymanGeek That's toast, not a HDD
 
Dog
Completely different physics.
> > CableLabs is going one step further with Full Duplex DOCSIS 3.1, though: it will let the client and the server speak at the same time into the same block of spectrum using a technique called self-interference cancellation.
With two devices transmitting at the same time there is a ton of interference on the line, but because the cable modem termination system (CMTS)—the hardware that your cable modem connects to—knows what signal it sent into the cable, it can automatically subtract its own transmission from the line, and be left with just the signal sent by your modem.
How has this not been totally standard in everything since the beggining of time?
 
3:36 PM
Morning all!
 
@PaulVargas Flagged for impersonating a mod :)
 
does any mod say that? ;p
 
they usually say "woof"
 
I assumed so yes
 
4:05 PM
Oh man, as of today I am legally an adult
 
@BenN Congrats. You can now have a drink to celebrate?
 
Not until 21 here
But I do have to pay taxes now, yay?
 
Ah. So you can vote, pay taxes, join the army and kill people, make love but not buy a drink? You live in a crazy country :)
 
Yep
 
@BenN Can you drink with a meal in a restaurant if someone else is legally paying for it?
 
4:12 PM
I think buying alcohol for people under 21 is illegal, or maybe only if for minors?
 
@Dog wait, cables are still analog right?
the world didn't suddenly change and I'd not noticed?
 
Buy or poses?
 
things you can do legally in the uk, in age order:
 
Fourth attempts (and third hour) of trying to install a printer driver and get it working...
Dell 3010CN networked lasterprinter and windows 10
 
drink booze, babysit, have sex, get married, join the army, play the lottery, learn to drive, smoke, have homosexial relations, buy booze, buy fireworks, teach someone to drive
 
4:18 PM
@djsmiley2k Why do you think the UK has so many underage mothers?
 
@DavidPostill ;)
 
In some US states, you can buy fireworks at 12
 
ages are 4, 12, 16, 18, 21 (well, 3 years experience)
@BenN explains a lot ;)
 
In the UK "​It is an offence to supply liqueur chocolates to anyone under 16." lol
 
supply sell
you can give your kids booze at 4
if they are at home
oh and males can have sex at 14, tho I think that got changed
but while I was at school it was still true iirc
oh ok it got changed
..
     It is illegal to give an alcoholic drink to a child under five except under medical supervision in an emergency.

It is thought the Children Act 1908 made provision for parents to give alcohol to a very young child, where it could be considered an anaesthetic in cases of acute injury.
 It is legal for adults to buy alcohol for children over four to drink in the home.
Found it.

@allquixotic slowly getting there :P
(plugin's built, it's receiving samples, timer's running fine)
but it can't find its helper DLLs... hm. I'll probably have to fiddle with search paths.
PWD is probably TS, not in plugin folder
eh, that's a tomorrow job
 
i get my 2nd 27" screen tomorrow
 
Hmm, this sounds interesting: adnauseam.io

David Robinson on December 20, 2016
Is there a difference between a "software engineer" and a "software developer"? How many years of experience do you need to be "senior,” or a "team lead"? Do people still call themselves "webmasters"? Does anyone actually describe themselves as a "rockstar" or "ninja"?
 
Webninja's and rockmasters?
 
Bob
5:08 PM
@Hennes webninja sounds like a npm module
 
@Bob parallel implementations ftw
