Urgh. VNC to a virtual PC over Remote desktop over SSH. Lovely latency.

I have just been restarted! This happens daily automatically, or when my owner restarts me. Ready for commands.

Hello World

woof

damnit MS news.slashdot.org/story/16/02/21/1639240/…

@JourneymanGeek Ugh... Samsung does that shit with my S5.

Then whole point of the new defaults setting thing is to stop that sorta thing happening

@JourneymanGeek that explains a few SU questions. would really tick me off too if i couldnt find the hack to stop it.

it would be "ok" and normal for update procedures to retract stuff to default registry settings for that item being updated. It would be (instead) pure evil if they have routines in there or in the auto "fixing" stuff that continually sets it back to defaults.

@PatoSáinz Too much.

Although to be fair, since I spend several hours a day on RDP, I'm used to it by now.

dog wash. Something that is prolly a little more useful if your dog's bathed in mud first ;p

@PatoSáinz not really valve time.

Ok. Bot

They're essentially rewriting/updating a fork.

Differences between broken Linux server run and working Windows local run:

User agent. OS different. Unimportant.

It fails on the ws-auth request for the websocket.

You're running phantomjs on windows?

fkey different. Expected.

Cookies. COOKIES.

Present on Windows. Missing on Linux.

@qasdfdsaq Yea. 2.1.1 for both machines.

coooookies

Hello World :)

Next question: why no cookies on Linux? :S

Let's see.

...

waiiiit a second

god fucking dammit.

are the cookies where they should be?

chat login failed in the first place. why didn't I check that

so SSO fails on pjs. but only on linux.

cause no one expects the spanish inquisition the most obvious thing to check?

next question: why?

wtf is a 'flapping eth2 connection'?

sorry had to :-)

eth2 would indicate the third ethernet adaptor, prolly on an older debian/ubuntu system?

@JourneymanGeek But why is it flapping?

flapping... maybe they meant another f word, or its connecting and disconnecting?

My internet keeps dropping

@MichaelFrank That's about as vague a question as "Why is my computer crashing"

Where should I look?

@qasdfdsaq Sorry, What is flapping?

Flapping is when a connection repeatedly goes up and down.

@thebluesquirel typically this is a chat room as opposed to general live support. We have no idea why your internet is dropping.

Sorry

Any ideas what could be causing in ifconfig?

nope

and that question makes no sense whatsoever

Sorry

Protip: when asking what could be wrong with your configs, post the damn configs

And package loss???

....

Sorry

dude. My psychic hat is at the diviners.

If you're losing packages, you should probably contact your post office.

If you're losing packets, you should probably contact your internet post office. Or maybe your ISP. If you can reproduce on multiple machines. Bleh.

catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#beprecise

Sorry, I'm not in a particularly good mood right now.

PJS is doing funky stuff.

I thought it was funny :)

@Bob what changed between when it was working and when it wasn't?

Oh, does cavil connect in regular or mobile mode?

@JourneymanGeek Regular.

@JourneymanGeek Uhm. Absolutely no idea.

I'm going into this blind.

so that couldn't have changed

At some point @allquixotic updated PhantomJS, I think

But I'm running the exact same version here.

@Bob yeah, but that's a useful starting point to consider

could you try an older version?

Hm. Lemme see.

Might work, but that would be suboptimal.

Would narrow down the range of 'what's broken'

no point hacking at the code, if the runtime is borked

IIRC it was broken before.

But I'm honestly not sure of the timeline here.

Ok, running with 2.0.0.

Nope.

Nup.

Same issue.

I'm digging through the packet caps now, but the glaring difference is the lack of cookies on the linux side

oh, how awesome

I've managed to break it on windows too

this might be a good thing

...nope I have no idea why

running the exact same script as before

arstechnica.com/gaming/2016/02/…

The Vulkan renderer in The Talos Principle is not fully optimized. Expect better performance as development progresses.

The game still runs best in DX11 mode.

@Bob I awoke on Mon, 22 Feb 2016 00:04:06 GMT (that's about 1 hour ago), haven't done anything yet!

its alive Shambling around?

@JourneymanGeek No, that's the old instance running in my browser.

ahh

I'm out of ideas :\

@JourneymanGeek do close votes expire or something

my Q had 2 a few days ago now it has 0

@Insane I do seem to remember it does

I seeeeeeee

there's the long boring explaination with graphs. Which makes it all better

scrolled through, read nothing, feel smarter due to amount of graphs

+1

ok

stackauth makes a request to /users/login/universal/request

which responds with a short list (in json) of domains to auth to

then a request is made to each domain for a gif with a querystring that IDs the user. the responses set the required cookies

for some reason, pjs is loading the chatpage before getting the response (sometimes the first, sometimes the second) even though I've got a 10s delay in there... it loads the chat page in ~2s? :S

wait. what.

it worked that time?!?!

A watched bot ever toils?

And it stopped working again

sigh

le sighmageddon

Had to tether from my phone briefly due to a brief loss of connectivity at the cable modem. It's up now but I had to spend a bit of time to tell Windows that this is a metered connection.

(Tethering is built into our existing wireless plan and simply draws on the data allowance.)

I do not take the decision to tether lightly.

Urgh I give up

I need sleep. I'm too old for all-nighters.

Word of warning to all, just in case it should come up... - thehackernews.com/2016/02/linux-mint-hack.html

Yeah, its been mentioned

Tempted to pin it but everyone here seems to run ubuntu or redhat/fedora/centos/borglinux

Fair enough, I scrolled up a few pages and didn't see it - sorry for the duplication :)

security is hard and unsexy ;p

What's embarassing is they got hit by someone who prolly wasn't actually a professional.

lol

>_>

My database passwords are typically completely random

The hackers seem to be selling the entire dump for $80. Honestly I'm surprised how quickly it got caught, they could have had the site in a compromised state for a long time without arousing much suspicion.

@PatoSáinz I do mean completely random

not psudorandom

@Jonno also, 'all' they did was slip in an old irc ddos bot

should you? ;p

Slightly better than password1? :)

I do, yes

I guess it's one of those things where it started off so small they never considered changing it.

If its worth doing, its worth doing right, right from the start

Imagine how many sites are up right now hosted on a server with root//root as a default

(But hey, my server got compromised by xordos, so I clearly learnt this the wrong way)

dic-tionary word... seriously ;)

seriously ._.

If you don't need to remember it, you gotta have it like a male duck....

Long and wierd

and there's no reason for a DB to be open to the world

iirc mysql restricts it to localhost by default

close all the ports

and most attacks are fairly trivial

Do I need to quote mickens again?

I really wouldn't be surprised to find out there are a huge amount of servers running on a DMZ with root//root still in place.

> 'Basically, you're either dealing with Mossad or not-Mossad. If your adversary is not-Mossad, then you'll probably be fine if you pick a good password and don't respond to emails from [email protected]. If your adversary is the Mossad, YOU'RE GONNA DIE AND THERE'S NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.'

@Jonno at this point of time I consider having a root account that can be connected over SSH a liability. (Not as bad with key based auth, but sudo is such a nice thing)

If nothing else, it makes it slightly harder to bruteforce since they need to guess your username and password

@PatoSáinz making loads of money singing songs about being heartbroken and whiny?

@JourneymanGeek He's got a point. I highly doubt she's ever lost an entire MySQL database.

bad blood. Clearly a song about someone she knows hacking her system

lol

Its muscle memory from years of running ubuntu

Typing sudo before everything is an auditing thing.

It's also rather useless for anyone in a single-user/single-admin setup.

hmm a word for hacking popular/celebrity/political peoples ? HackARotzi ?

@Bob also means you drop out of 'root' the moment you're done with it

@PatoSáinz Point is you know which account/user does what.

@JourneymanGeek And that's an anti-accident thing.

Not a significant security measure by any means.

@Bob yup. Though some people cargo cult and sudo everything whether or not its needed

@PatoSáinz and end up bricking your system...

@PatoSáinz The point is you only provide elevation to run specific commands where necessary.

Not very secure either, IMO, but some people recommend it.

As soon as you let everyone get a shell as root, it's impossible to figure out who's who anymore.

@PatoSáinz naw. docker is the new curl http://trustme.su/runme.sh | sudo bash

and will produce a new generation of lazy programmers and admins.

@PatoSáinz this is why I try not to run stuff I can't install from scratch

._.

@Bob - seems oddly appropriate... ^

@JourneymanGeek O_O

GOOMHR?

Bots for chat. Fighting with bots. Australia.

>_>

...that's almost too close.

(What does GOOMHR stand for?)

@JourneymanGeek Get Out Of My Head Randall

ahh yes ;p

Seriously, that's crazy relevant.

IKR?

@allquixotic HE'S ALIVE

(in a local firefox instance, but with webdriver)

I'll try porting it to phantomjs tomorrow

and probably polishing it a lot

no cookie use right now, and login still occasionally fails... probably needs a couple waits here and there

Going to sleep now, bye!

Whoops, chatbot has shut down.

Good night to you, too.

@Bob Awesome. Thanks a bunch!

@allquixotic and now that I look, you already had a selenium run-headless -_-

Anyway, here's the current one: github.com/allquixotic/SO-ChatBot/blob/WebDriver/…

@Bob but borked

ah

webdriverio seems much more straightforward than the basic one :P

but its 4.x branch is undocumented, so I've fixed it on 3.4.0 for now

yeah, webdriverio lets you chain stuff

@allquixotic I actually thought about doing it with the phantomjs api directly :P

!!no

@allquixotic lol

GAH!!!!

i rush all morning to get a demo of a module i'm writing working and deployed to the public test servers before a meeting only for them to turn around and say they don't want to see it

Okay the Audio quality isn't improving and it's driving me nuts

0_0

From what?

I updated windows and the volume has gone way down

The default drivers aren;t working

Cnexant drivers aren't working

EqualizerAPO can't change the volume

the bundled dolby software crap that comes with the conexant driver doesn't work

fuck

can i borrow someone's energy just to get me through the afternoon?

i'm feeling all.... blargh

lol

I'm currently recharging listening to music ;p

Need to go to bed soonish tho

which timezone are you in @JourneymanGeek?

GMT+8 SGT

@Burgi The future.

To you, anyway.

;p

He's stuck in the past from here :P

can you let me know the lotto numbers on wednesday? ;)

Now, that'd be cheating!

making use of available resources

i'll go 50/50 with you

If I told you, the timeline would change, and you'd be stuck in a time loop.

oh good god.... monday afternoon FOREVER.....

All our systems are belong to us offline. .___.

Well, not our OUR systems, but our systems.

You have no chance to survive make your time!

OH NOES OFFTOPIC MESSAGES

;p

OH NOES!

heh

(I've talked to the mod in question and let him know that we're a general chat room)

were there mod shenanigans over the weekend or something?

@JourneymanGeek who?

@jokerdino oh, its handled

Some mod not from here deleted something like 60 posts for being off topic, cause ... wait you were here for it ;p

Sometimes tf2 is a satanic simulator

@ThatBrazilianGuy yep

Hats and skins and taunts ftw

@JourneymanGeek just wanted to clarify if that was the situation you were talking.

though, admittedly, part of it was my mistake.

Yeah

mistake not kicking qasdfasdfasdf out.

I was asleep..

So qassdasdasdasds got kicked again ?

which seems to be the case most of the times this happened

@jokerdino how's it going? Has your head stopped spinning yet? :P

@Bob I labelled it a weekend project :P

<intentionally avoiding other topic>

@HackToHell Well, I've seen more bizarre stuff on games.

That's loading a message from their sponsor :'(

So who wants to take part in my weekend project of hooking into whatsapp web ;p

@Bob I'll attempt to work on it tomorrow or something. Your new code buzzes me out.

@jokerdino eh, you pick the time

I used flexbox pretty heavily. Look up a guide for that :P

HTML I kind of get most parts. The dynamic JS thing and CSS knocked me to sleep.

here comes JohnB.

D:

shhhhhh!

don't mind me, just sitting here silently judging you all

woof

There you go. I'm noisily judging you all

i'd make a joke about the thought police but i'm not sure it would go down well

so i'll keep stum

Grrrr!

Windows does not recognise all IPv4 addresses.

It works if I use \\10.0.0.2

Though ping 10.2 works perfectly.

Rep capped ;)

one day i'll hit the rep cap....

probably 10 minutes before they turn the servers off

@FaheemMitha No I just have a crush on @A.. @Bob. And who wouldn't, with that glistening mane and luscious red locks.

@qasdfdsaq Well, that's a belated reply...

Just got the email.

there was a crazy rumour you had been deported to the moon

Dang, Galaxy S7 fixes not only nearly everything I disliked about the S6 but also some of my dislikes from the S5 too!

I want it now

I haven't wanted a new Samsung phone at launch this much since the S2.
