« first day (2497 days earlier)      last day (2819 days later) » 

@JourneymanGeek in the last 10 minutes alone, you have said hard, sex and rape. Why am I the only one on the hot seat? Referencing references to shit is still references to shit.
@Nick cause I am telling you where the line is
And I wouldn't need to otherwise.
And Mr. Geek, who is going to tell **you** where the line is?

Ok ok, I'm just Arnab Goswami-ing at this point.
@Nick Well, if I actually cross it, maybe you guys. Else I'd probably have a CM have a polite chat followed by utter crossness.
@Nick Words themselves aren't offensive; it's the context and meaning in which they're used that makes them offensive and violates the rules. The way they're intended. The way they could reasonably be interpreted by an impartial other. Just invoking the words is no dirtier than reading a dictionary. Merriam-Webster isn't distributing smut just because their dictionary contains a definition for "rape".

14:02
Some ex-mods have crossed over to the dark side.
Don't suspend me again. I never even knew till this year what being suspended from chat was. I've been repeatedly pissing people off and not at all contributing to superuser.com in any way.
@Nick as I keep reminding folks, we have folks of all sorts around, we have female users, and probably quite a few LGBT....
and non-humans
@Nick I'll suspend you if I need to. don't make it necessary
Look, I'll try to be a nice guy. It's when I try to be a funny guy that you guys get uncomfy
14:04
@Nick word from the wise, he is telling you to STFU
@JourneymanGeek Why are you being seggrigist right now?
@Nick more that its worth being mindful they exist.
@Burgi ... uh, ok... well, that's a mean thing to say
@JourneymanGeek and that's a non-egalitarian thing to say
and stuff like that does not contribute to the sort of chatroom I'd prefer
@Nick yanno, I don't think I'm getting through to you.
Yeah, I need a sperate room with you guys for really off-topic stuff.
14:05
I'm really trying my best here.
@Nick There isn't really an "off-topic" here, only inappropriate, which won't fly anywhere on SE chat
@JourneymanGeek You are. I'm just differing with you on a point that I don't think we should be debating about right now.
@Nick Me!
@Nick his subtle hints weren't getting through
@NotDog you're the guy who keeps finding so many new lines to cross we're having to use 25 dimensional geometry to see em all ;p
2
14:07
@JourneymanGeek there are only 11 dimensions in reality
man
will never know wtf went wrong with that laptop
@JourneymanGeek There are only 16 conceivable....ah, forget it.
as now we re-named it on the domain, and it works perfectly
@JourneymanGeek You mean you keep relocating the lines in the wrong damn place
@djsmiley2k true dat
14:07
@allquixotic We had to invent new ones...
it's like that old name has some weird thing somewhere.
even when entirely deleted from the domain, recreated - the problem persisted
What problem?
@allquixotic 5 more ones in a recent critically acclaimed paper I read in string theory.
Jesus christ AMD's up another 8% in the first 30 minutes of trading today
brilliant.... i just got 40 emails in a lump because our email transfer agent had got stuck...
14:08
lol
27 mins ago, by Nick
How do I list all the .xls and .xlsx files on my Windows 10?
We all got problems, son.
@Nick search
@Nick search
Can you answer mine now?
IOW I just made £80 off AMD sitting here for 30 minutes
Forgetting that it was 2:30 39 minutes ago
@NotDog Maybe it's Vega, maybe she's born with it.
@djsmiley2k Vega's still months away from making an impact on their bottom line though
@NotDog are you working with @bwDraco to become AMD employees now?
@NotDog People be cray cray
@Burgi No
14:09
@djsmiley2k Yeah, I remembered Windows still uses the same explorer.exe stuff do indexing so, I searched *.xlsx in the file manage itself with C:/ drive open. It worked!
Just throwing several thousand pounds around on the stock market to try make my money last longer before i have to find a job
@Nick well yes,.... what did you think would happen o_O
@NotDog that's a .... odd way of doing things
@Nick voidtools.com might be useful here
@djsmiley2k I thought they got rid of that since 8.1 ... That's how long since I last used that feature.
how much does it need to make to outweight the fees?
14:12
You know when you should have told me that? At the moment I asked the question. I wouldn't have offended anyone with nsfw talk.

This did not show up in the first few pages of my search. It's exactly what I need.
@Nick that dosen't excuse it. I was getting dinner. I'd have gotten around to reading the scrollback eventually
@JourneymanGeek Alright, can we drop this. I have a paper tomorrow and I need beauty sleep.
@JourneymanGeek how is the new boss working out?
Toodles all
Have a nice life.
@Burgi he's ok
14:14
Not insane?
naw, not insane
IT'S A TRAP
is he crying into his hands like you were?
@Burgi almost.
35 secs ago, by djsmiley2k
IT'S A TRAP
14:15
He's also kinda annoyed at my predecessor
19 secs ago, by djsmiley2k
35 secs ago, by djsmiley2k
IT'S A TRAP
Ok I'll stop.
for the lack of documentation and crazy shizz?
have you got that ticket system set up yet?
he's also doing a reasonable job covering my ass (he's actually familiar with our MS access mess) and I'm focusing on the folks on the ground
naw
But I've gotten used to people randomly calling me. I do need to train my users to identify themselves on the tech support whatsapp group
I also had a mysterious case of 2 people complaining about lack of wifi in classrooms, and apparently they weren't there.
Did I mention I hard rebooted a router on a ladder?
14:18
@JourneymanGeek I once did this
over a industrial production line
And one of my rooms basically has a single ethernet cable powered primarily by faith and arcane incarnations?
actually thinking about it, there was no ladder
@satibel :(
we decided it wouldn't fit, and I had to climb up the rigging on the production line instead.
I literally have no clue how that room has connectivity failures, and how it starts working again
14:19
@JourneymanGeek Florescent lights?
WOoo Hooo
some of my users also think I do magic cause I walk in and their problems go away
3
Wife's told me to go to McD's for dinner \o/
@JourneymanGeek haha
@djsmiley2k I described it earlier elsewhere...
my claim to fame on the desk is, I walked past someone
@djsmiley2k marry the girl! wait...
14:20
heard them mention a printer wasn't working...
@JourneymanGeek Him being funnier? That's impossible!
@djsmiley2k I quite LITERALLY touched a wireless mouse and some issue fixed itself on its own.
I said 'Just take the paper out and replace it'
some how, magically it worked
everyone was like :O he's a genius!
@Burgi she's with her Dad and they're at the pub
this sounds like her way of getting pished and forcing you to collect her from the pub
> More fun at work. I have a switch that's connected via a consumer router to another switch (since for some reason it doesn't work if I don't). It randomly stopped working today. Then started working the moment I plugged in my laptop to see what was going on ._.
14:22
@Nick oh my god just shut up why are you making things worse and everyone uncomfortable
and the second switch only works if its plugged into the switch, not the other switch (that does auto mdix)
@Rahul2001 that boat has sailed ;p
I was catching up on what I missed while doing differential equations
@djsmiley2k I suspect that segment only works if there's at least one gigabit ethernet adaptor plugged in somewhere
but when I unplug my laptop? All's fine
@Rahul2001 :/ hi again, thank you for reminding that to me :) I really appreciate it. Now, let us move onward into the future. Take my hand if you must. I mean you can cut it off.
14:23
Oh and the printer IP address randomly changes
@Nick Your hand? ewwww.
apparently cause someone there unplugs the printer whenever it runs out of paper and plugs it back in
> IEEEian. Mozillian. FOSSian. Cyber Security Expert. Full Stack Web Developer. 100% follow back.
and that breaks the one XP box being able tp print and nothing else
wot. so n00bish
14:24
@Rahul2001 Self proclaimed cyber security expert. Couldn't fit that in there.
> 100% follow back.
@djsmiley2k It's an odd situation I've ended up in
@Rahul2001 I've been a n00b for a decade now. I think that's my niche.
@JourneymanGeek would it be faster and cheaper to nuke vast swathes of your infrastructure?
@Rahul2001 Yes, I deliver on that promise. Albeit, I only check that list once a week.
14:26
You're like the shrieking 11 year old girls from my sisiter's class "FOLLOW AND I'LL FOLLOW BACK" like wot
2
@Burgi oddly this may actually happen soon
erf
wot is my new favorite word
I have one webpage randomly breaking again
@NotDog BTW, cavill is dead. RIP.
14:27
@Rahul2001 It's also the name of a D&D adventure m friend game called World of Thunder
polishes the viper proudly
fracking toaster
@JourneymanGeek But calvin was a better name. Interstingly, I had a friend named Calvin who treated me like a dog when we were kids. I had a strong hatred for Filipinos after that. Until I met my friend Jay.
@Nick i thought you were going to bed...
@JourneymanGeek yeah, autocorrect.
@Nick some dogs get treated pretty well
14:29
gtg buy some stuff, brb
@Burgi I was actually writing scripts on evernote for my imaginary youtube channel
@JourneymanGeek welcome to IT.
@Rahul2001 burns router, uninstalls firefox, installs windows, installs viruses, bans javascript, unfollows
@Avery lol
@Avery you must already have windows as a gamer...
14:30
@Avery FOR HAX: rahul.tech/weblog.php
I'm just gonna go to the shop to get some chocolate, I'll come back and see what damage (if any) you've managed to do.
@Burgi I use prioprietry nvidia drivers, bumblebee and steam client for linux (or steam through wine) and it does the job.
fair enough
hah, dodged a bullet.
Was about to ask if someone could check if a webcomic was loading for them, but it was roughly as NSFW as the MASU video I linked the other day...
:thinking:
also, the webpage is just reaaaaaaly slow
14:34
@Rahul2001 That's fine, I already have his replacement plan in place before I ragequit
@Avery whatwhatwhat
hahah
@Avery lmao again?!
That noob never leanrs...
WTF is_numeric($_REQUEST["post"])==1
Is this invalid syntax?
was checking if you were out
14:35
(@Burgi)
no
i've modified content myself to see you panic
Haha epic
(I kinda hate myself haha)
@Avery I HATE YOU GO DIE IN A FIRE
2
love you too man
14:36
that hurts my head.
it's not free energy, they lol'iong
it might be free but only produces a tiny amount
oh ffs
why it is only 3pm :(
@NotDog I have.
I don't.
can you send the source so I have more places to dig through?
@Rahul2001 is_numeric() returns boolean, why are you testing it against 1?
Yay phone cable just unplugged itselef in the middle ofa firmware flash
14:40
@Burgi oops, will fix
@Burgi it's not freee aaaaaaaaaaah
also don't use $_REQUEST
Also don't use PHP
:p
@Burgi eh, POST doesn't break the blog
I think
use $_GET
@Avery meanwhile:me
@BenN I actually kinda like it. Granted it has drawbacks, but still
^ If that video does not help anyone in this room with productivity, maybe I should stop hanging here.
$_REQUEST polls $_GET, $_POST and $_COOKIE
@satibel is that an injection
14:43
I like php :/
@Nick well I don't use evernote
Then again I look like this <
@Burgi I know
@Avery Blasphemy. Then what do you use?
@Nick greater things have no happened.
My brain :/
14:44
@djsmiley2k no. He just hates my stylesheet
so in theory i could do a malformed $_POST
I store notes in my head
i remember things, for years :/
@Burgi try, won't work
@djsmiley2k when is your anniversary?
@Avery no, that is changing the yucky css :p
14:45
@Rahul2001 i really don't have the time
@djsmiley2k BEWARE! @Burgi is trying to impersonate you to your bank!
@djsmiley2k Remember this and repeat it to me on June 15th : wjo96w-9e-w34e0k4
@Nick cat and echo. > and >>.
is that @Nicks CD key?
Also, if you can crack that encryption by then, I'll give you a coupon for a free website design.
14:46
@Burgi I actually kinda want to see if it works (cc @Avery)
@Avery I'm too dumb to get why those linux commands mean anythin rn
@Rahul2001 make a fake cookie
@Rahul2001 for what I've tried, it only accepts numbers, no?
@satibel yep
@Burgi Figure it out. It's a sentance encrypted with a very specific keyset. I call it the "telly" encryption. I've made 10 other simple encryptions too.
14:49
@Nick cat: read, echo: say what I typed, >: put output (of the echo) into a file, >>: append output (of the echo) into a file
@Nick raise it as a ticket, i'll get to it shortly after the heat death of the universe
@Nick if you do encryption, then you should know that's impossible to crack without context
Really, none of you can decrypt that easy statement? That's very sad to know. Maybe I'll ping @Snowden and see if he can do it.
how would a mountain be able to decrypt it?
@Rahul2001 It's a sentance, spaces have been changed with - and the rest are letters encrypted with a simple key.
14:51
@Rahul2001 loving your social engineering, keep it up ;)
@Burgi Cuz a mountain is high enough to do so.
@Burgi aww crap, I divulged too much. Now, it's easier.
@Nick dude. That's impossible to crack without knowing the cypher/technique/implementation
Anyhow, you guys have time till June 15th. I'll be back here to retrieve the information. Thanks for holding onto it.
@Rahul2001 you can swag that.
@Rahul2001 hehe. That trick isn't going to work. It's mapping technique. Letters are mapped to a set of other letters. The latter set is either randomly generated or extremely familiar. Knowing me, what do you think I'd choose?
14:53
Scientific wild-ass guess (SWAG) is American slang meaning a rough estimate made by an expert in the field, based on experience and intuition. It is similar to the slang word guesstimate, a portmanteau of guess and estimate. == History == The slang term "SWAG" is generally thought to have originated in the US military, either the Army or the Air Force. Journalist Melvin J. Lasky wrote that it was first used casually by US Army General William Westmoreland during the Vietnam War. Westmoreland would sometimes reply "SWAG" to reporters' questions about American failure to neutralize the enem...
Hey, don't I make this chat even slightly fun?
no
@Rahul2001 telegram?
haha...I'm waiting for the rest of that sentence.
14:54
@Nick Do you want me to use the awesome comebacks that I have to that?
@Avery sure
@Rahul2001 Yes, definitely.
Ah, yes, silence. I know her well.
I need to go learn SQL guys. Unless you guys know a room that will help me brush up, I'm going off to YouTube and preparing a Google Site like I usually do. Website building helps me study for semester papers. Who knew?
Bye friends. See you on June 15th.
@Nick no thanks, more important things to remember, like feeding my cats, turtle, fish, kids...
just squirted fucking orange juice in my eye
ffs
I'm sure someone has taken up the challenge though.
14:58
@djsmiley2k ha, then you DON'T remember everything
@Burgi the oranges were doing what now?
@Nick being peeled
@Burgi kinky. carry on.
:) buh-bye
@Burgi you clearly need to wear safety goggles
15:00
@Nick i remember things, not every thing
ironically i'd taken my glasses off to focus closely on the task in hand
fail
the oranges planned this.
We need to have a backdoor to orange communications
clearly no orange acts alone

@Avery seriously?
partially
Africa is awesome.
@Avery wut
surely not all of it
15:15
@satibel I think that the first word is probably smiles, referring to @djsmiley2k.
smiles is
wj how do you get wj -> sm ?
Well, africa is awesome fits :p
he didn't just rot13?
1 min ago, by djsmiley2k
smiles is
wj how do you get wj -> sm ?
@djsmiley2k there aren't numbers in rot13
K, presume it's smiles, show me the translation that makes sm into wj. Now apply that to the rest of the string, does it make snese?
@Avery yeah, realised that after saying it ;D
15:18
Smiles needs la or li, assuming a character always permutes to the same.
And @Nick might be going to africa.
SA is a good country.
is it?
massive inequality
knowing a few people from there, it isn't.
15:21
corrupt government

Nigeria, Guinea, Ghana, etc
Tanzania is nice appently

north africa is libya, morroco, egypt, etc
oh
yeah skip all those places :D
15:30
wasn't there a coup in ghana recently?
@Burgi there was?
it was somewhere in west africa
@Avery lots of racism, apparently
the president refused to accept the general election and a neighbouring country sent in troops to forcibly remove him
Equine in elantra. Hey, why not put a horse in a car?

@Rahul2001 Who's that?
15:50
@ThatRussianGuy Back? Who are you talking about? You must have be confused with someone else.
I'm not dog.
@ThatRussianGuy nick
@ThatRussianGuy @Nick's twitter
> I'm not dog no, for live so humble
I'm not dog no, for you be so very far
You don't know understand who is love, who is like
You just know get it mistake
And so there I go away

Worst thing of the world
Is to love very back
Who say no to big love
Doesn't matter to be happy
Oh, so little to be love
You should understand
That for you I have passion
For our love, for love God
I'm not dog no
For our love, for love God
I'm not dog no
@ThatRussianGuy why is that vodka bottle still full?
Someone drank all the vodka and filled it with water...
15:52
ah
are you hoping that one day it'll magically turn into more vodka?
Anyone want to explain X->Y to someone?
I am thinking of using ssl authentication via https with some tasker script that runs on ip change on the mobile device. I have tried OpenVPN as stated in the post. — Rynardt 1 min ago
@djsmiley2k Dude, as far as I know my employer doesn't care what mildly innapropriate stuff I do at work.
@Burgi Here's a secret: I hate vodka and whiskey. Pssst, don't tell anyone!
what sort of russian are you?
a sober one?
Wait, what? Give back my Russian ID? It's been revocated? What do you mean?
@Burgi It would be nice if it magically turned into caipirinhas. Or caipivodka with assorted fruits (no, not many fruits in one drink, eww. Multiple drinks, one fruit each). Or micheladas. Or wine. Or artisanal beer.
16:11
hey, i've been on chat since my like 2nd week at work
they love me here, because I get th work done
I guess ythat helps ;D
Here they care more about results than about what time I arrive (or leave) or about my browsing history
brilliant... the emergency security patch for a plugin on our customers site breaks the site at a fundamental level
The clue's in the name... unplug the plugin!
i wish i could, its stupidly used as a critical structure
...aaaaaand there's always cake!
Like, we're having cake right now:
(actually, in a few minutes, but I want it right now!)
16:22
whose birthday is it?
A coworker's daughter she brought to work is 5yo today.
So we bought impromptu cakes and pastry but hey, cake is cake :D
you work with a weird alien pixel blob
> Thank you for reviewing 20 close votes today;
yay
So there's these two little girls running around and doing little kids stuff
@Burgi we're proud of being an inclusive workplace
we've got everything from pixelated blobs to people with ambiguous nationality to people with serious issues
Although, as far as I can tell, IT is a huge crazy magnet. You have to be a bit crazy to be in IT.
Some people take it too seriously

@ThatRussianGuy no, cake is a lie
