My mail server is out... yet again.
@ThatBrazilianGuy tell it that it can't go dating femail servers until it delivers your mail
I don't care what my mail server do at weekends, but it's always passed out on mondays and it's annoying.
considered having your server fixed?
> HELO femail.bebe.org
250 Hello cute.guy.org, I am glad to meet you ^_^
14:10
Not mine in the sense of owning it, but using it at work (or rather at this pace, NOT using it).
!!ping
@ThatBrazilianGuy pong
14:31
@Bob github.com/Zirak/SO-ChatBot/commit/… Zirak fixed substitution
isn't that a classic?
@ThatBrazilianGuy err... mondays?
@Braiam What day is it where you live (Catalunya, right?)?
he lives in DR
@ThatBrazilianGuy in my country everyday is monday... if you know what that means

Oh wow, my dad brings home a 8 year old scanner than he found
it doesn't even have drivers for windows 7
A few months ago I spent a few days throwing out decade-old hardware! (Having a wife can have this effect on your geek stuff...)
@HackToHell guess who's installing Windows XP :D
14:38
@allquixotic I have a XP VM, hopefully I can forward it somehow
@HackToHell if it's USB, you can
otherwise, probably not
if its parallel its probably not worth the effort ;p
@ThatBrazilianGuy: heh, my parents vaguely did that ;p
@allquixotic It's a USB !
I threw out some older gear when I built my box. Some of it was even running!
the modern virtualization products (VirtualBox and VMware) are reasonably reliable at forwarding USB to guests
high probability of success
14:40
(I dismantled my old parallel port scanner, dad wanted the glass. >_>)
@JourneymanGeek that may be the first and last time in my life I ever hear someone use "dad wanted the glass" as a justification for taking some action
@allquixotic: asian families are wierd ;p
@JourneymanGeek wouldn't asian families be totally normal for you, though?
@allquixotic: Should be ;p
but I sort of have slightly differing values towards some stuff
OH ITS THE NSA, HIDE THE SPINACH!
14:43
@JourneymanGeek so you've got western influences, or european?
(not that Bob or I would ever try to influence you in any way)
@allquixotic: wierdly? I consider myself culturally geek ;p
@JourneymanGeek pfft you think we give a damn about that?
3
And that the indian culture of my parents is the last vestiges of victorian culture
@allquixotic you can't influence an old dog (?)
14:44
@TheNSA how come your General has no eyelids?
i saw in his 60 Minutes interview
@allquixotic How are you guys supposed to be culturally influencing someone over the internet :P
he literally has eyeballs with no eyelids
Oddly the things I love about being around geeks is that we're sharing information, and thats what my culture was supposed to be about
but nooo
@JourneymanGeek I also think part of geek culture is to go learn about other cultures than your own (or the one you were raised in)
we had to get ideas of respectability, and judging people by what they do, and how rich they are, and forget the joy of knowledge.
14:45
i love learning about all your guys' cultures
indian culture sucks
Too conservative and oppressive
@HackToHell: Indians need to find ourselves again.
yeah, Indians need to evolve
we learnt the wrong things from the brits.
and then the americans
We have been influenced by far too many people
And the moguls before that
14:47
(don't get me wrong, I'm personally conservative in many ways , like diet and stuff)
but there needs to be a cultural evolution away from positional power
and stuff ?
@JourneymanGeek And male dominance
India's changing though
@HackToHell: quite a bit of the time, I'm a good little rule-following person ;p
@JourneymanGeek funnily enough, the brits stopped acting like the brits sometime after we kicked them out of north america then allied with them to fight totalitarians
But I believe in the idea of a 'personal' set of 'right things'

check this out https://www.google.co.uk/#q=site:stackexchange.com+%22vashikaran%22
welp
14:48
@JourneymanGeek I hate rules :P
(which I suppose is a extension of the caste system , just differently)
that's a lot of spam
@HackToHell: I set my own rules, I choose to follow them cause I do.
@JourneymanGeek it can be bad sometime :P
but at the same time, I believe that morality is relative to an extent
14:49
@tombull89 there have been a lot of spams going on site-wide lately... they claim to have ramped up anti-spam policies yet it's getting worse
Someone might find something that you think is ok to be bad
@HackToHell: and?
As long as I have my own moral code, I can wake up in the morning and go "Yanno, I did ok"
and not go all "eww, that guy dosen't follow the same set of arbitrary life-rules I do. He sucks"
@JourneymanGeek moral individualism is a very modern (and American........) ideal ;p
Well if it's a single person, it doesn't matter, but when the majority of people don't really like what you do, it becomes annoying
@allquixotic American as in Western ?
@allquixotic: it to an extent was also what some aspects of the caste system were about.
14:51
I expect India is a fascinating place, and I'd surely like to visit at some point, but we only hear of the bad things (poverty, pollution, and gang raping).
(yeah, it also allowed an upper class to oppress a lower class, and was evil in many ways)
@HackToHell yeah, although the part of western that comes from old british imperialism is certainly not part of that
India's boring :P
if I visited India, I'd want to go to the places where all the high tech stuff is done
maybe see their space program stuff
@JourneymanGeek These days, I am seeing a divide between people who believe in traditional stuff and the ones who are well western
@allquixotic Bangalore is nice
14:53
"SOFTWARE HOUSE Microsoft has renamed its Skydrive cloud storage service as Onedrive following a legal dustup with Bskyb. Microsoft announced the news in a blog post on its newly launched Onedrive."
Onedrive?
Onedrive?
that's a horrid renaming
With Xbone sync !
so now Windows 8.2 or 9 will have "Onedrive" in the frickin' Explorer. GREAT
@HackToHell: there's always a middle ground ;p
@JourneymanGeek I tend to piss off both the groups :P
because both are erroneously wrong in their assumptions
14:54
how come Microsoft can't have a fairly original (as far as I'm concerned) and not very common name like "Skydrive", yet a thing that exists on almost all houses, "Windows", and inside all houses and most industrial buildings, "Office", are perfectly OK?
@HackToHell: my parents are neo-victorian bramin conservative
;p
@HackToHell: maybe, but I can't fix everyone.
@JourneymanGeek O.o when you said "bramin" I for a minute thought of "brahmin", the irradiated mutated ox-cow things in Fallout 3
I have no idea if my parents are conservative or not :P
@allquixotic: priestly caste ;p
14:56
@allquixotic o.0
Hello everyone!
@HackToHell did they vote for Mitt Romney? do they believe in the old ways?
Hola !
@allquixotic: oh politically we're pretty oldschool concervative
@allquixotic I am not sure they believe in anything :P
They suddenly go on a temple visiting spree
14:57
but thats in the "Goverments should keep their noses out of everyone's business' way
and then forget about God for several months
@JourneymanGeek remember me?
and my mom's actually pretty liberal about LGBT issues
read going to temples and stuff --> old
@JourneymanGeek I don't have the nerve to ask
14:58
You are older :P
@HackToHell: oh, someone we know transitioned
hard to remember an unregistered user unless you have a photographic memory - just sayin
give yourself a real display name
and the government is anti-gay, and it pisses off mom
@JourneymanGeek ah
;p
I have no idea why, she dosen't actually know any gay people ;p
(I do, and rather amusingly, its someone I knew for years before it came up)
14:59
1 min ago, by HackToHell
You are older :P
@HackToHell how much old?
over 9000!
uhm why ? stalker thing :P
(depending on your chosen accounting of time.)
@JourneymanGeek zombie!
technically no
zombies probably would fall apart by then
15:01
He crossed a wormhole
Throwing this out there, are answers like this flaggable?
@Undo it's a one-word answer. what do you think :D
@JourneymanGeek then what are you?
one-word answers are never acceptable
@allquixotic Yes, I'm just trying to get the feel of SU before we unleash Charcoal upon you :P
15:02
you always have to explain your answer
@user239752 A space god dog
Some say I may be a small dog ;p
-1
A: POP/IMAP collector for OS X Lion Server

Eddy Yuansheng WuYou may want to look at Fetchmail.

@Undo what's Charcoal?
Actually, I'd close the question
15:02
@allquixotic A gizmo for flagging.

Charcoal HQ

Where smoke is detected, diamonds are made, and we break thing...
^ Anyone that wants in can drop in there and ping either me or @hichris123
@JourneymanGeek i love your dog! Btw what is his name?
@Undo some kind of scraper that automatically flags low qual questions or?
I have a dog? WHERE?
(Ash)
@allquixotic Sorta kinda, it's fed by SEDE and presents everything in a big queue:
@Undo has it been discussed with any SU community mods? not that they'll necessarily object to it, but it's good practice probably to at least let them know what it is, since they may not know
15:06
woohoo 8 year old scanner works
they're the ones who'll see the flags mainly
@HackToHell USB passthrough?
@HackToHell black and white?
not too bad
@allquixotic We've worked extensively with SO mods (nuked ~5k comments), and we'll probably do the same with SU.
(backing up my music to the raspi-nas)
15:07
@Undo alright, sounds good
most (not all) SU mods hang out here once in a while
@JourneymanGeek ubuntu would have been much more faster
@JourneymanGeek BTW, I asked a question
cc @Sathya @OliverSalzburg @slhck ^^
@allquixotic why you added cc?
@user239752: erm, the bottleneck is the raspberry pi, and possibly the USB HDD
@user239752 I was referring to @Undo's discussion above, not your post
15:08
@allquixotic okay!
I believe @Bob mentioned it would suck too
I need to set up wifi on it later
@JourneymanGeek
in The Comms Room, 3 mins ago, by user239752
@JourneymanGeek what do you ignore me?
@allquixotic I installed it in Windows 7 in compatibility mode
@user239752 color !
@HackToHell ah. lucky :)
We can put >200 flags/hour into the system when everything's optimized.... we've been yelled at more than a few times by mods on relatively small sites for doing that :P
15:09
@HackToHell :-) lucky
@user239752: why
@Undo is this in any way integrated with the backend, or are you using just lots of front-end accounts (or a few accounts with high rep / many flags) and screen scraping the FE?
also i'm not sure we have enough mod support to handle 200 flags per hour on top of what we're already carrying.... some mods might be willing to step up and handle the load, but it would certainly be an "oof!" to SU... I already see latency upwards of 8 hours on some of my flags
@allquixotic Well... there's an API method for flagging now, and we have a few high-flag accounts.
@JourneymanGeek color scanner, 6 year old, in't he lucky?
@JourneymanGeek and why you don't reply to me on google plus?
@allquixotic We wouldn't be able to start with anywhere near 200/hr, that's only on SO now :P
15:11
cause I'm not paying attention to it, duh.
@allquixotic And it's kinda integrated into the backend, on SO we give ThiefMaster big lists of comments to delete with his script.
But not really.
and the 200/hr can only be sustained for about an hour a day :P
@JourneymanGeek open your google plus chat (if you can,)
Because rate limits.
why? I like it here.
@JourneymanGeek okay let's continue it here
@JourneymanGeek BTW, can you suggest me a nice username?
15:15
lol
just pick something you like.
@JourneymanGeek but still, suggest one
Idea: Go to create a new repo on GitHub and use their suggested repo names for username inspiration.
@JourneymanGeek Also, I asked Oli to suspend me for one week as at that time, my exams were there but he suspended me for one month!!! (Horrible!)
now exams are over!!
or go to a random word/sentence generator and base on that
15:17
bleh exams :P
lol. Self control is an awesome thing.
!! s/Self //
@allquixotic lol. control is an awesome thing. (source)
substitution works again, yay
@Undo that would be too much hard; i don;t like to sign up everywhere
@allquixotic google.co.in/…
15:20
bearded-bugfixes
psychic-bear
this one is cool also spinxo.com
laughing-wallhack
animated-nemesis
A GitHub account is totally worth it just for that one feature :P
lol
you could go: lghck and make it a contraction of laughing-hack or laughing-wallhack, since slhck (SU mod) is "soulhack"
or PsycoBear to match PsycoGeek
or ThatBeardedGuy to match ThatBrazilianGuy
or just take your RL first name and add _yo after it
that's always safe
How can they tell that I am a GIRL!!! Are they MAD????
15:25
@user239752 are you?
No I am not
@JourneymanGeek how can you say?
proof?
lol "Ubuntula"
SHUT UP
15:27
lol
lol @ "username creator"
lol "SoUtkarsh" very doge
now the whole world knows his new incarnation.
@allquixotic please delete my name from that place. i dont want to reveal my name
!!doge Utkarsh Ubuntu woof India
15:28
@all please don't.
     wow
very Utkarsh Ubuntu woof India
um. !!doge looks broken now
!!doge some random stuff
  wow
very some random stuff
15:29
^ Borked.
@user239752 it's a common name anyway
either you're the same Utkarsh who's been here before, or there are like 3 of you who come to RA
!!doge asdkja daoisd oaisduoai daios duoaudo aisduoais duoai duoai duoais duoai du
     wow
much asdkja daoisd oaisduoai daios duoaudo aisduoais duoai duoai duoais duoai du
@Undo just git pulled from Zirak, so I guess he broke it
15:30
@jokerdino wasn't it a serious matter?
oh good heavens, he/she must have flagged my comments
OK, who summoned the mods now?
hiya @KitFox
When I am right here?
You are a mod ?
15:30
@HackToHell Ohai.
@allquixotic You bet.
2 mins ago, by user239752
@allquixotic please delete my name from that place. i dont want to reveal my name
So who got flagged
@jokerdino help please, this time, i don't want to revel my personal name
2 mins ago, by jokerdino
@all please don't.
15:31
@allquixotic: its the same one.
that's basically it, mods
Flag? I never saw a flag...
Hi @joker. You need an assist, or you all set?
@user239752 meh
Chatflags go so fast.
15:31
delete or not as you please, this user posted a picture to this chat with their name and then asked us not to use it
@KitFox joker? lol
Where's that picture !
@allquixotic 3? name them?
@HackToHell I removed it
user deleted picture after posting it.
@user239752 No mister. We are talking about violating rules by creating a new account.
15:32
@user239752 if I named them, that'd be using your name
@KitFox Pretty good. Thank you.
@allquixotic I'm not a room owner :'(
yay another blue guy
@jokerdino no i am creating a new account as that account is deleted y me
..................
hiya @MichaelHampton
15:33
*sigh*
@Braiam that thin mess has been fixed, want my 100 rep bounty?
All right, who's causing trouble in here?
@MichaelHampton I
It's a mod !
15:33
this "user23975" has been Q / A banned numerous times and is back again... voluntarily gave up their own identity and now is trying to Streisand Effect.
Called @jokerdino
that's basically it
@MichaelHampton Wave off, joker's got it.
Oh good. Let me know if you need a box of ammo or anything.
@MichaelHampton I could use "a backpack full of ammo" (Doom2 reference)
idkfa plz
15:34
I just got a call offering me a 200 USD montlhy salary trainee position. They say I had applied on a CV site. I don't use the site for at least five years.
@kit and @MichaelHampton, we'll proceed this matter privately hereon. Thanks for your assistance!
@ThatBrazilianGuy very likely fraud then
you all made be cry, i hate you all

@ThatBrazilianGuy wut? how?
yeah, @jokerdino is a regular in here, we trust him ;)
15:35
@allquixotic No, they had my name right.
In dino we trust \m/
Very likely reeeeally slow HR
@allquixotic Thanks :D
@Braiam Found a coworker who knows his stuff. One of the more knowledgeable around here I could find since I arrived. Unfortunately he's on his last period on psichology university (!!!), so he dissappears constantly in order to study.
@rlemon Dude, !!doge is broken in git master.
@ThatBrazilianGuy :O
@ThatBrazilianGuy so... no repro D:
@user239752 :(
/me hates when stuff fix themself or someone fixed them and I don't know how..
15:39
@HackToHell IT guys get psychology diploma. Makes perfect sense! All IT guys are crazy!
@Braiam He showed me how. Basically, this way‌​.
@KitFox Still here?
Oh never mind.
don't "pull" / "aggro" (MMO terms) KitFox, lol.
lol........
oops..
15:41
@ThatBrazilianGuy basically reinstall the stuff... :(
Summoned, I come.
now you're in trouble, dino!

Mhm, we are talking about a ferocious moderatrix.
@Braiam he? Bad call
15:43
they were probably laughing their burning arses off all the way up 'til the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
Now she's going to start shaking her.. uhm.. naughty bits around.
O_O
Of course I was talking about her tail!
I guess the fox says "you're dead"
15:44
Is that what the fox says?
or perhaps tchoff tchoff tchoff tchoff tchoff tchoff-tchoff
gekkers
:O
I wonder if your ELU question ever had mention of what the *Fire*fox says
as we all know, the Firefox says, "SHUT UP!" (per the ~2006? flash ad)
@allquixotic My father went to india once. He didn't speak hindi. Hell, he didn't speak English and went there with a pocket dictionary. He made friends with some guru in a temple and stayed with them. The guru didn't speak English as well.
My father having bobmarleyesque dreadlocks and a beard might have helped making friends with them
@ThatBrazilianGuy how odd.
i would go to where my coworkers come from :) if i went to india
not sure on most of them, but i suspect tamil nadu
15:48
I suspect it too.
i would go to india just for the good chai
@allquixotic lol, chai's overrated :P
a good chai is never overrated
overrated is overrated
x is x
15:53
sex is sex

!! s/x//g
@allquixotic se is se (source)
starred for maximum embarrassment.
i don't care ?
Unless it invades my chances of being a room owner in the near future ~_~
i don't make that decision; a SU community mod would have to dole out owner permissions as needed
15:58
@HackToHell that won't happen unless you are virtually living in the room. (like say Bob)
how can this site possibly be considered a place for civil, unbias, NPOV discourse and knowledge-accrual while software-rec.se is met with so much skepticism. O_O
Jeff Atwood did tweet that that site will fail horribly.
@jokerdino I suppose
wow, i just saw a flag that can't be unseen
i need to not click on those
