@satibel insertion is good.

@JourneymanGeek pebble

sorry I'm using my CookBook Pro on cookOS right now

being from a "Muslim country" you should be prepared to answer crazy question when travelling to the UK

I'd get yelled by airport staff if I tried to so never really tried to walk through from their scanners with watches on.

@Burgi oh I know.

@Burgi Travel Denied! #BriticaFuckYeah

Also, I know of people with uh... more questionable implants that affect... different parts of their body, and airport scanners don't go off for them.

they have to justify Brexit somehow

i had to practically undress when i flew out of the UK last time

except Britain

what does it say about me if I know all lyrics of america fuck yeah?

"i'm british, its 6am, i haven't had any tea and you thinking i'm a fracking terrorist?"

@Avery you will only be slightly molested when you try to enter the USA

the "say any words in this list in any context and you'll be arrested" thing is BS

if you rock up wearing clothes made from the american flag and a cowboy hat they will just wave you through

@Avery It depends what ;p

actually doing that to an american flag is illegal

o.O

@allquixotic free speech

@satibel you know what I'm talking about

@Avery inserting. food. in your mouth. Right?

@satibel inserting electronics...

yup

NFC piercings are the future

bluetooth controlled vib.... NOPE

that's a thing.

> The United States Supreme Court in Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989), and reaffirmed in U.S. v. Eichman, 496 U.S. 310 (1990), has ruled that due to the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, it is unconstitutional for a government (whether federal, state, or municipality) to prohibit the desecration of a flag, due to its status as "symbolic speech."

my ex had one. Was interesting, to say the least.

o.O

@Avery and it can be hacked. and most of them aren't secured at all

@satibel just increases the unpredictability value.

which is not a bad thing for some.

o_O

you wouldn't use it outside your house though... right?

Do I have to answer? depends.

I prefer to know who is in charge of my internet of things things.

hang on... you are 16, where the hell did you get one from?

I don't have one.

my ex did.

@Burgi "I'm over 18" -> yes

@satibel that might work in france

you had a sugar [mummy|daddy] ?

but in the real world...

@Burgi I'd do, it's a cheap battery powered wifi arm thing running linux, imagine the possibilities...

@allquixotic Damn, that food tray brings back old memories.

Memories that were buried until today.

we had white plastic ones

memories of highschool?

@Burgi Wait, France isn't in the real world?

reminds me of afriend of my bro's in mcd's

he orders take out

they offer him a tray

he takes it.

@ThatREDACTEDGuy no

But then where did my ex-best-friend from high school went every year?

@Burgi oh and to answer your question, she got it from amazon.

Where was her father born then? Where did she came from?!?!?!

she's an alien

@Avery No, her mother was Brazilian. She didn't need a green card.

ebay.com/itm/… + 3d printer + old ps2 controller + battery + esp

@ThatREDACTEDGuy did he translate anything wrong?

@allquixotic I'm not watching a 30 min video review of army food. Of brazilian army food.

@ThatREDACTEDGuy huh

I saw some "BR? BR!" comments on the video that were like "jajajajaja he put water on the farina"

then one of them said "you put the farina on the beens" lol

more jajaja?

Would jajaja again!

@allquixotic What were spaniards doing on a br-related video?

floof

@allquixotic HE PUT WATER ON THE FLOUR?! WHY?!

@ThatREDACTEDGuy sorry, I meant "HUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUE"

Unless he wanted to make glue an amourphous paste.

TBH, my wife puts cookies on her cofee and I think she's nuts.

Sometimes she puts bread (yeah, bread) on her cofee.

@allquixotic Accurate documentary.

@ThatREDACTEDGuy "Flour" -- I mean I'm not entirely sure why they give you flour in a ready to eat meal anyway, but they did

he said it made "instant grits" lol

which you'd have seen if you watched the video

@ThatREDACTEDGuy I put croissants in my coffee.

Let me save you time: youtu.be/7R1t8InSD8A?t=740

if you want to just see the part where he adds water to the flour lol

> Porra, essa ração é melhor do que a comida da minha casa huehueheuehuhuheuhuheuue

@allquixotic Well, not "flour" as in "a fine powder that you bake" but as in "a thick powder that you eat with the food"

Maybe flour is the wrong word?

We're entirely unfamiliar with that over here, so I guess the mistake is forgivable :P

whenever we see a "thick powder that you eat" we usually think of putting it on the stove with hot water and making some kind of: oatmeal, cream of rice, cream of wheat, etc

"hot cereal"

aha

he ate it plain. lol

Cassava is amazing, not only it got four names but you can do ANYTHING with it.

Google Translate to the rescue

Cassava Cakes:

Fried cassava:

"Tapioca", a sort of pancake-shaped pancakey stuff

Stuffed with either salty stuff...

Or sweet stuff:

And then there's tapioca pudding

WHEN IS SOON??????

reminds me of an nsfw channel on a discord, where there's pictures of food.

food is nsfw

And there's these amazing tasty, yummy, soft, "pão-de-queijo" (cheese-bread):

@Avery Didn't we already have this discussion? ;)

Despite the name, cheese-bread is made of cassava flour

@ThatREDACTEDGuy I LOVE CHEESE BREAD

yup

...does it not have cheese?

@allquixotic I... think... it does?

@allquixotic WAIT DO YOU KNOW IT?! HOW? WHERE? WHEN? HOW?

oh

I just realized that I have a ton of weird talks in this room

And there's "biscoito de polvilho" (no-idea-how-to-translate-it cookies), who have cassava powder in its ingredients

ohai [REDACTED]

@ThatREDACTEDGuy YOU FOOL

YOU MADE ME HUNGRY

Stupid food porn

Food=hungry, Porn=horny

HORNGRY

(sorry, I'm weirded out by myself too)

Rahul its very ok

Goddamnit Microsoft y u no return email

I can't find the source now, but once I read someone claiming (in English) that manioc was a shitty food that only poor people would eat because there would be no alternatives left and it would be the last option and basically terrible

And I was like "OH NO HE DIDN'T"

@allquixotic Are you sure you want to not only translate Youtube comments, but HUEHUE Youtube comments?

@allquixotic "Just gonna add water to it..."

13:47 Stop man! STOP!

HAMMERTIME!

@satibel @GypsySpellweaver check new CSS!

rahul.tech/gossipmonger/…

Kinda buggy on mobile, I know

@Avery for me it's not only in that room, I was timed out once or twice (by overly prude people) from c# for inappropriate content

@Rahul2001 ooh, fancy.

@satibel I know, right?

@Rahul2001 the p1 & p2 are broken though.

@satibel ah right

Will fix

@Rahul2001 HUNGRNY

@Rahul2001 It looks more "modern" and cleaner. I like it.

@GypsySpellweaver :D

@allquixotic can you give me a hand with headless configuration of zirak's so-chatbot?

@Avery It doesn't run headlessly at the moment.

that explains a lot.

The nightmare-based script (iirc rlemon wrote it?) doesn't work last I tried, and the webdriver-io one I wrote does kinda work with pjs but isn't stable long-term.

Chrome headless can't inject the script without some reworking.

Firefox headless was still too unstable last I tried. Might try again next month.

@ThatREDACTEDGuy you just made me hungry

why???

T_T

@Avery If you really want to, you can get it up with pjs and run-headless-webdriver but it'll go down maybe once a week, randomly.

if you're happy using Xvfb then both Firefox and Chrome should work fine

I'd dig up the bash script that inits it but that was kinda lost when that scaleway server ... disappeared

I already have x on this machine

in fact I'm typing from it

vnc is helluva drug

@Avery eh, that's not really the point... running even on xvfb is that less efficient because it needs to render to an external 'display' vs an in-process buffer

if you didn't care about that at all, then you technically don't need to be running headlessly at all

(which keeps things simpler)

but yea from the browser's perspective xvfb is not headless

the vnc on this server is complicated

basically, session gets destroyed the moment I leave.

wonder if firefox can run through screen.

yey

if you just want to keep a session open then use tmux or screen and xvfb

google done 2 step auth right

if you want proper headless, then wait a month

i click 'sign in' on my computer

it instantly just asks on my phone 'accept signin?'

no opening apps, generating numbers, etc

anyone used the artem google map library?

if Firefox doesn't get more stable in the release version of headless then I'll look more into fixing the script for Chrome headless

which is doable, just painful

@djsmiley2k yeah that is really nice

on a completely different topic... you brits have an insane postal system

UPRN? UDPRN? wut?

we do?

wut?

Royal Mate M8

fite me.

Royal Mail?

yus

the queen delivers our mail

w00t

@Avery if you just want to experiment with xvfb... set up firefox & ghostdriver, and use run-headless-webdriver with the firefox sample config (remove the last bit of the config extension)

@Avery talking about implants youtube.com/watch?v=tVVTSXA0HTU

I remember getting something out of Canonical via Royal Mail.

That's how I know.

stop making me hungry

(Heh. "Starting to". Heh.)

@ThatREDACTEDGuy -_- I know it is morse code, just found it funny to google that.

@satibel That's because you googled "<morse code>" instead of "morse code translator"

Unless you wanted to see how popular was morse code and.... OH.

@ThatREDACTEDGuy there is no danger of your co workers starting to think you're crazy

there is no danger of your co workers starting to think you're a cute little pupper.

and why half the staff has white robes?

does anyone know of a Google Maps .NET library?

@Burgi Install-Package GoogleMapsApi

@jokerdino woof?

> Install-Package : Could not install package 'GoogleMapsApi 0.66.0'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETFramework,Version=v4.0', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework.

@Avery it's about [...] size.

any other suggestions?

nuget.org/packages/gmaps-api-net

maybe

@satibel That's the only missing part.

i need to change our current solution to send an API key but there is no documentation on how to do that and the new version of the solution is no longer free

@Burgi Depends... what are you trying to do?

I mean, GMaps is usually client-side.

Or are you just consuming the APIs for e.g. places, geoloc, etc?

we just did it manually :P the APIs are pretty straightforward

RestSharp if you must, but HttpWebRequest works fine

c-sharpcorner.com/article/…

Oh, in a desktop app? ... I don't think that's technically supported

but your best bet is the JavaScript lib wrapped in a WebView (or Awesomium)

@Bob geocoding, directions and displaying of geocoded results on a map

its a web app

@Burgi FYI licence terms say you're only allowed to use their Geocoding API if you display the results in a GMap.

(we ran into that)

its a Gmap

We just did the geocoding calls from client side... custom XHR calls, was very simple

Yea

Just construct your own JSON

I recommend Newtonsoft.Json

for obj -> json string deserialization and json string -> obj serialization

I suggest extinctdino.json

@Burgi If you look at the request/response examples - very easy to do manually. You don't even need auth headers. Just HttpWebRequest + a JSON parser for the response.

It does mesh better with JS than C# though.

Definitely, Bob.

I made an app like that once.

Twas a pain

and I wrote it in VB / C#

I don't have the source anymore sadly

@Bob so hand roll it instead of using a library?

sort of

@Burgi well, that's what we did, but we just had some simple lat/lng <=> address conversions

didn't do directions but I imagine it's similar

hmmm...

if you really must use a lib, they exist, but don't seem very well maintained

@Bob yeah thats the issue i'm running in to

somewhat more active and general, github.com/chadly/Geocoding.net

@Burgi For an API this simple (literally 5 lines of code could do it) I'd not bother with a lib

especially with the nice stateless requests

stateful requests (including auth headers, cookies) are where I'd worry more about finding an external lib - but even then RestSharp takes care of it nicely

Bob

Was just about to say that xD

nice ninja edit

its days like this i wish that: a) i was a better developer, b) i didn't have to maintain crazy websites, c) had customers that would pay for me to experiment a bit more

Fuck, if someone way better than me wishes this, what is left for me to wish? "Be mediocrely decent someday maybe"?

if you're showing the maps anyway the JS API can load these modules and probably give you a nicer interface?

we are batch geocoding within the umbraco CMS

@ThatREDACTEDGuy i don't think i'm a better dev than you....

free stars?

@Burgi I ... suspect that's against the geocoder api T&C, tbh

(ಠ_ಠ)

who the hell spams stars?

who dis?

you get only 20 stars every day. Use it wisely

@Burgi ^

@jokerdino Wait, really?!

I'm here since 2013 and didn't know that

> No mass downloading. You will not use the Service in a manner that gives you or a third party access to mass downloads or bulk feeds of any Content. For example, you are not permitted to offer a batch geocoding service that uses Content contained in the Maps API(s).

will this ever stop?

@Burgi but yea if you just want geocoding... wait, are you doing forward or reverse?

HAMMERTIME!

If this sillynes continues I'm gonna kick every non regular until it stops and find the culprit by elimination.

it's not me.

@ThatREDACTEDGuy it'll stop soon cause imma clear those stars. and you don't get the cleared stars back.

brb scripting it

@ThatREDACTEDGuy yeah because no room manages to say 20 interesting things in a day.

@Bob the star battle.

@jokerdino Oh, is it per-room? Or per site? Whole SE?

@ThatREDACTEDGuy yes

(ಠ_ಠ)

(it's 20 stars per chat room per day)

(oh. good to know)

@Bob the eventual output is on a GMap so we are ok there

@Bob both

@Burgi ah. still seems fairly simple

formatted_address is probably what you want from reverse if you just want the whole address in one string

we geocode the imported postcode then store the co-ords in the DB. when an end user searches their postcode on the map page we use the results in the DB to plot the locations on a map

@Burgi you could just use the places API and let them search it directly on the map

developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/…

that's what we did

geocoding is if you're not taking user import, imo

though it does have its uses

but, yea, you have options

if you still want to go the precomputing route, well, refer to the geocoder docs/examples - it's pretty simple

not sure i follow you... if we used places how would we get it to just show our customer's specific locations?

@Burgi they'd type in the postcode, and you get a list of markers back

though places also allows non-postcode lookup

my cat is ridiculous

maybe I don't really get what you're trying to do

@allquixotic meow

all day she lays by my door and comes over every 20-45 minutes and stares at me with these sad "PLEEEEEASE???? :(" eyes

she's addicted to treats I haven't even given her in like a month

if I give her attention she lets me pet her, but she clearly wants treats

she's deciding if it is time to have you replaced

@Bob thanks for your help!

i'll have a think about hand rolling

@allquixotic :D

Did you put her on a diet or something?

twitter.com/CrashPlanSlow liked some of my complain tweets (I have only complain tweets). Maybe I need to move to something else, after reading all the other retweets in that account

Well, doesn't make me want it x)

@satibel Damn, and here I was considering it for my wife's photography stuff.

Backblaze seems good.

For a single computer.

hmm...

it looks like my company's new bank is using wordpress

not sure if i trust them...

my dad's financial corp uses wordpress too

o.O

kgf.com.tr/index.php/en

a TON of security exploits

have you not offered to patch it?

he's a very great human being

who kicked us out of the house and is threatening legal action.

lovely chap then

very lovely

in fact he saids identical to @Rahul2001's dad

hey guyss....

I hate my life

Boss-man is having me make it so you can input a table of values in PowerApps to be related to a form

and...

cries

there is no input control even like a table :'(

@Burgi what if I told you

I had 2 father figures

and both are equally terrible

koluman.com.tr

no https. flash. terrible design.

doesn't work without www.

those are all really simple to fix tho

wait

this is a bank?

oh wait nvm I see

kgf.com.tr one is the financial corp

that's marriage #2

#1 is the one that's one of the top guys on www.koluman.com.tr

which is a mercedes benz reseller.

huh

that's sad :(
