12:01 PM
(on the whole internet.)
 
:D
careful
you could just use shodan too
which is what I was lookin for, when i came back from lunch and all hell broke loose
@satibel that's basically what nessus is iirc
 
@djsmiley2k I'm too lazy to login.
 
lol
create a proxy to do it for you
d
 
I mean, I'm at work, and don't have my password typer with me.
 
fail
 
12:17 PM
@djsmiley2k didn't know nessus. burp
 
i feel I'm maybe telling you too much XD
 
@djsmiley2k don't worry, I'm not evil, just curious.
 
me too
but i fear I'll get myself in trouble, being curious
 
worst case, I might write a script that opens notepad or gedit an all vulnerable computers and says "hello, this machine has vnc with no password and can be accessed from the internet, be careful."
@djsmiley2k just lay low while the helis and guys in black escalades with tinted windows patrol :p
 
yeah
that'd get you arrested in many places
sad isn't it?
if someone left their house door open
you shouted in 'your door is open!' they'd thank you and close it
 
12:23 PM
it's kinda like opening it and putting a note inside saying that it wasn't locked and you didn't take anything.
 
now
if it's only a small opening....
 
@djsmiley2k a lot of people would say "get the fuck out of my property or I'll call the cops."
 
that's a letterbox?
 
is it worth having a mini-glasto festival on my sofa this weekend?
or is it just crap headliners as usual
 
btw, that's why we sign NDAs and make them sign a contract.
 
12:26 PM
=)
@Burgi no
if ur not muddy, it's not right
or something
I don't really 'get' festivals
Even at ones which should be attractive to me.... I almost kill myself just seeing a single band
I'd actually die.
 
@djsmiley2k socializing
 
really?
 
@Burgi which bit?
 
you dying
 
yus
i go bonkers lol
i used to release all my mania when out and about
 
12:28 PM
too many hippies and hipsters at glasto these days
no-one in the middle
 
in the moshpit?
 
i have no idea what is going on there
 
@Burgi Guess what, the people that care, play with kb/mouse
so let people play with what they areh appy with
 
12:33 PM
thats basically what he is saying
 
@Burgi so why not allow crossplay?
he's saying 'No it's dumb, so we won't do it'
 
ah
ok i misunderstood you
 
football with a egg shaped ball is dumb too, but we do it
as is sliding along a subliminal surface with millimeters of material between you and the surface... but we do that too
:D
 
what?
 
Dumb things: Human do em
Infact we idolise some people who do dumb things
(some of us, not me, afaik)
 
did u mean to link the comments?
 
@djsmiley2k actually, just put an option for people who don't want to play against another type of controller.
 
@djsmiley2k no
 
1:45 PM
I'm wondering if this is too broad superuser.com/questions/215777/…
 
hmmm
Helping rewrite the test foe newbies/interviews at work
:/
 
Hi
 
ehy
 
It's been a while. I've been busy teaching students at PyDev, India.
Btw, I did not need to teach them <strike>crazy</strike> stuff like hosting a Django app on Heroku.
... ok, I've obviously forgotten formatting
 
no crazy for you
 
1:51 PM
... how did you?
 
strikethrough : "- - -strikethrough- - -" without space
I'm too tired to mess with people x)
 
Oh GOD! I just found several sites that convert text to Strikethroughed text. What an insanely simple project!!
@satibel Aww, thank you :) This is sweet.
I am smart
Yay!!
I'm going to use the a lot. It really refelcts my way of thought thought process
--I wonder if...--
-no-
----what about...----
ah
I'm going to head out to the sandbox
 
can you do your testing somewhere that isn't the primary channel?
 
buh-bye!
@Burgi okie dokie :)
 
I'm breaking up today. Over text message. Ha.
Can't have more toxicity in my life
 
1:58 PM
@Rahul2001 eh, my ex played lol.
 
@Rahul2001 :/
 
@Rahul2001 are you doing the dumping?
also why do you think your gf is toxic for you?
 
I'm falling apart too
todays pain is my legs.
 
@Burgi I am
@Burgi meh. She refuses to even speak with me.
 
2:03 PM
yeah, get rid
 
I'm not sure what sort of a relationship it's supposed to be
 
@satibel It's not everyday you see a Brazilian guy in a meme
 
But it's definitely not supportive or helpful
 
@ThatREDACTEDGuy he is?
 
2:06 PM
@Rahul2001 yo don't need that right now
@ThatREDACTEDGuy he has really tiny eyes
 
@ThatREDACTEDGuy oh, ok, he is.
 
@djsmiley2k yeah
 
@djsmiley2k I think Xerxes has really big eyes and they digitally enhanced it in the movie and you're used to it and his real eyes seem strange
 
@Nick ---like this--- like this
 
@ThatREDACTEDGuy hehe
well it's only that first pic of the google results that looks odd.
 
2:17 PM
@Avery telegram?
 
I think it's likely mah system
 
2:37 PM
FIRST NONE @BOB ENTRANT!!!!!
 
yesterday, by Bob
✅🐎🔋🖇️
@Burgi that sounds like you put a random mash of words.
 
Bob
2:52 PM
@Burgi how is it? :P
 
got to go, bye
 
@Bob not brilliant
 
@satibel Okay horse, battery clips?
 
Bob
@Burgi lol. probably better than mine. it was complete, right? :P
 
Check horse charge clips?
 
3:05 PM
he has used the semantic elements and SASS though
 
Bob
yup
 
correct horse battery staple
 
@Bob yeah it was finished
he's really young and inexperienced
 
Bob
@Burgi what was the salary range again? or is that not public?
 
@JourneymanGeek DAMN I NEED SOME SLEEP. >_<"
 
3:13 PM
@Bob wasn't public but we'd save money on the salary but lose money training him
 
3:29 PM
bye folks
 
I have this lovely issue on Windows 10. My usb ports work like a charm until I unplug something. Whatever I plug into the now-empty port will not register, not even if it's the same thing I just unplugged. Does that sound familiar to anyone?
 
what devices?
does the old device still show in the device manager even after removal?
What flavour of USB are the ports?
have you checked your mobo manufacturer for updated drivers?
have you always had the issue or is it something new?
is there anything in the event viewer regarding USB?
 
It's new, but I just re-installed Windows 10 two days ago. Affects USB ports 2.0 and 3.0 but I don't have any 1.0 (seems to affect every port). I'll check devmgr and the event viewer. I haven't checked for updated drivers, but I can
 
So much for the server migration...
When you try to contact support:
 
@Burgi Once trained, forever brained!

3:40 PM
 
@Bob you applied for Burgi's job? o_0
 
No, he is testing the test
 
yeah, and we are paying him in chickens
 
I am payed im chocolate for supporting french clichés.
 
Cluck cluck
I made £200 off AMD in the last two days
 
3:43 PM
How?
 
he decided that since the fox hunting vote has been dropped from the government TODO list that he might as well come to the UK
 
@satibel Shares went up 15% or so
 
I did it, broke up.
 
Thanks for the free graphics card AMD!
 
@NotDog nice.
 
3:55 PM
@satibel Correction, shares are up 25% since 3 days ago
EPYC seems to have gotten the investors excited
All the while cynical me continues whinging about AMD's recent naming schemes
 
4:22 PM
welp we are interviewing this n00blet because he is the only one to have completed the tech test... :S
 
We were all nooblets once
 
4:41 PM
o/
 
<headphones-chat> I got some Beats Solo3 Wireless because they are the only non-pods/non-IEMs that have the Apple W1 chip... the BT range and reliability and battery life is truly as good as they advertise, and a cut above anything anyone else has
pairing and switching between devices is also easier (with Apple devices) than other BT solutions, though the compatibility is apparently excellent, from testing them with a Windows box
and they aren't crazy Beats Overkill Bass-like, either; it's a nice close to linear mix
 
erlp thats good
 
Zero clicks or pops or dropouts across the room, the mic is OK but not amazing... no noise canceling, but they don't need it, the passive noise canceling of wearing them is very good
and they don't hurt my ears like the Beoplay H9s do
probably the best pair of headphones Beats has manufactured to-date... build quality is slightly less durable-feeling than Beoplay or Sennheiser, but so far no signs of damage or breakage and I've put them in my bag several times
<if-no-comments-or-discussion></headphones-chat></if-no-comments-or-discussion>‌​
 
i can talk if you want to
 
@allquixotic That's not saying much, given Beat's pretty low baseline
But if Apple have made them turn around and become actual decent mainstream manufacturers rather than catering to the ... ahem... "All about the bass" market... I guess that's good?

Q: How to give feedback on a technical test

BurgiI work as part of a small web development team and we are hiring for a new frontend developer. I was asked to make a technical test for candidates to do pre-interview. The test was a simple landing page. We have now had a few candidates complete this test and have called them in for interviews. ...

 
> We have now had a few candidates complete this test and have called them in for interviews.
I thouguht you were interviewing a nooblet because he was the only one?
 
5:17 PM
Goodnight people
Hope that court goes ok tomorrow
 
they all nooblets?
we hope so too @Rahul2001
 
5:36 PM
lol
not what i was trying to link xD

O365 migration is really not fun
Looking beyond that I can not use my own user account for it, as that always results in 500 errors, I managed to start a migration, which errored
It errors because it found users in our AD that already exist in O365. Which is understandable, since we used a different O365 plan for years
So their entire migration setup can not handle existing users in the target
But they have other migration strategies available. Which you would also like to try obviously, but those are unable to even list all mailboxes available for migration. Leaving you unable to do anything
And their stupid support thought they would do me a favor by transferring my ticket to their German team, which probably just left the office
And it appears like MS just launched "O365 Germany". A separate instance of the entire setup. Making everything even more confusing
I wish I had more hands so that I could give this more thumbs down
 
6:02 PM
lol
did u rename AD yeT>? :D
 
6:48 PM
@djsmiley2k No. I hardly got anything done
 
When I finished the reliscensing and initial O365 Premium setup, the first thing I did was to go to the Exchange Online Admin Center in O365, which gave me the 500 error I posted earlier. Then I tried to contact support and just got more server errors. At that point, it was clear that I should plan for complete rollback, not more migrations
Vendor lock-in is a real thing and it works
2
 
7:12 PM
 
So basically, abort, in big red flashing letters?
 
There is still a migration running and I'm waiting for it to finish. I want to see the result
Then I have a couple more ideas to mess around with before I roll back
I doubt I can solve this without their support as my user account seems to be messed up
 
7:55 PM
I'm not sure about 500 errors
but I regulkarly get errors where I have to sign out of 365 online completely, close the brwoser, reopen, relogin
refresh the page a few times to get it to work
this maybe be4cause I admin multiple domains and sutff, but damn it's broken
 
8:32 PM
it certainly messes up your keyboard...
 
lol yup
Wheres mah storm?
 
lost in the post
ugh my workplace.se question got squished :(
 
@Burgi You did get one upvote ;)
 
@DavidPostill thanks! :)

Q: Ogling Teenagers

WWhabsyVJsSY9DtAs summer has arrived, my teenage daughter begins to wear shorts of reasonable length. What should I do when teenage boys around her age ogles at her? Should I ask them to stop or let them be? I must admit I did ogle at other girls when I was their age

 
> reasonable length
Hmm.
 
8:54 PM
@djsmiley2k I'm through all versions of that. Support just called me after I sent them an angry email earlier. They suggested to create a new global admin and remove the global admin role from my user account, then assign it back. Tried that, didn't resolve the issue
They'll call me back tomorrow
But I realized that what I want to do ultimately isn't possible anyway
 
did you change the AD domain?
 
No. That is the beginning of tomorrow's approach if I don't change my mind
I wanted to literally just migrate the mailboxes to O365 and then map them to my existing O365 users. That is not intended at all
 
is it not better to fix the other issues without the added craziness of AD name change?
 
The problem is that I would always end up with 2 mailboxes per user. Their migrated one and the new O365 one they got when I upgraded the license
I have to remove the license from the users and remove the auto-created mailboxes. Then remove any useage of our primary mail domains from our existing O365 accounts, as those cause conflicts for the migration tool
Then migrate, then have everyone copy their OneDrive over and whatnot and active Office under the new account
It'll probably work perfectly and take like 2h
And if I rename the domain first, the user names in O365 would be correct right after migration

I like how Windows 10 now tries to hide the fact, when it restarts without your permission
... not
And chews through gigabytes of your mobile data allowance.
I was just about happy not tampering with Windows Update on my laptop W10 but this totally blows it
Also starting to play Youtube videos and audio out loud in a shared bedroom while I'm away...
... thus revealing the location where I hid my laptop AND pissing off everyone else in the room
 
10:50 PM
You can't blame microsoft for your incompetency (/s)
Install gentoo.
 
11:10 PM
##Should I install Gentoo?
 
@NotDog Indubitably
 
Bob
@NotDog did you set it as a metered network?
@NotDog ...isn't that only if you have the auto login enabled? or is that default now
 
@Bob Yes
@Bob Nope, no auto-login enabled
Windows seems to load all your previous applications in the background even before you login.
 
Bob
@NotDog weird, it's not supposed to download updates at all on metered
 
@Bob It's not downloading updates, it just relaunched my browser and started playing youtube videos
 
Bob
11:20 PM
@NotDog iirc they introduced a new option to auto login specifically for updates :/
@NotDog ...wtf. that's new and weird
@NotDog so... it restarted for a reason other than updates?
urk.
 
@Bob Er... I dunno tbh
I did do a manual update a few days ago
 
Bob
I've had it relaunch applications on certain types of restart
but usually not before login
 
> The speed of processor 7 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware. The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 8 seconds since the last report.
 
Bob
maybe some Dell thing?
 
Interesting
Nah, there's no Dell things on here
 
Bob
11:23 PM
hm
 
> The process C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe (QASDF-POWNAGE) has initiated the restart of computer QASDF-POWNAGE on behalf of user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM for the following reason: Operating System: Service pack (Planned)
Reason Code: 0x80020010
Shut-down Type: restart
Comment:
So no, definitely a Windows update initiated restart
 
Bob
@NotDog I did the test for fun :P
@NotDog :S
did you restart after the manual update?
 
@Bob No
 
Bob
ahhhhh that'd do it
 
Restarting to update graphics drivers? Who are you kidding this isn't 1998
:-P
 
Bob
11:27 PM
yea win10 won't let you postpone the restart indefinitely even after a manually initiated update
assuming the update requires a restart in the first place
 
It never even asked in the first place, so I never got a chance to postpone
 
Bob
I just don't even click the download button unless I plan to restart immediately after
@NotDog yea the thing is supposed to ask, I think, but I've never seen it do so
 
There is no download button I just clicked "Check" but apparently "Check" means "Download ALL THE THINGS" (and install them too)
 
Bob
buggy shit :/
 
It's fine, I'm permanantly disabling it... again
Did it on my server last year, figured I'd not need to on my laptop but nooooooo fucking Microsoft
 
Bob
11:28 PM
@NotDog I don't click any buttons on the update panel :P
 
I wanted to see if Intel's new graphics driver was available
Urgh I've forgotten how I disabled auto-reboot on my server now
 
In Jupyter (python) why would attempting to use pool.map(...) from a multiprocessing pool give the OSError: [Errno 8]
 
Bob
@NotDog group policy?
 
> Feature update to Windows 10, version 1703
@Bob Nah that doesn't work anymore
I used brute force
 
GP is still working for me on 1703
 
Bob
11:36 PM
@NotDog ...the one that disables automatic updates? or a reboot one?
 
You have to set it to not install without permission
I also have the no auto reboot one set but I suspect that does nothing nowadays
 
@Bob A reboot one
I'm not sure what it was but it involved tampering with the reboot application itself
But I can't find any modifications where I thought I made them so either Windows has undone them or I did something else. But it's still working on the server at least so I'm puzzled
 
@micsthepick MSDN says error 8 means "Not enough storage is available to process this command."
 
@BenN Im running Linux, the error says Exec format error
 
Have you tried Powershell?
 
11:41 PM
@NotDog Windows Resource Protection may have rolled the change back - there's some Sysinternals tool that lets you verify the integrity of a file, so you can check with that if you feel strongly about it
 
@BenN Yeah, except I can't remember which file it was, AND even if it has rolled back, auto reboot is still inoperative somehow
 
Actually now that I think about it the plain sfc should do the job too
Might it have been an ACL change?
 
Problem is I tried so many things before figuring out a method that worked that I can't remember which of the plenty of modifications worked
 
Or revoking the shutdown right from SYSTEM
 
@BenN That's one of the changes I made but IIRC that didn't work
 
11:43 PM
@micsthepick You should probably ask on a main site. I'm not familiar with the technology you're using, but if it's a programming thing, Stack Overflow is the place to go
 
@BenN I've allready asked, but my question has had no activity.
 
Bob
@NotDog yea don't think that works anymore
 
@Bob works on my serbet
Server!
