The key concepts in Ingress could actually be pretty awesome as a film. They have all sort of been done independently, but the backstory here is nicely compiled

@LucasKauffman My first time in Amsterdam, I went for a walk after work, yknow just to see the city. Wanted to stop at a pub for a drink, so I walked towards an area with a bunch of bright colored lights.

@AviD boobies all around?

Didnt give thought to the fact that all the lights were red, until I realized that behind none of the show windows was actually a pub.

@AviD hahaha

@LucasKauffman I beat a swift retreat when I realized...

@AviD why? It's something typical touristic

@LucasKauffman heh, yeah if you're into that...

> Never paid for it in my life.

;-)

I just wanted to see it just to have seen it

nah me neither

hah cool song at the end credits of GoT

whose is it?

...i'll never dance with a hairy bear... lol

huh? hmm, maybe I didnt see that episode yet...

oh damn you, spoilers.

@AviD What do you mean you didn't see it? I'm usually the last to see any part here. It's from 3x3

hmm, well, I guess I've been busy.

and watching other stuff...

well sorz then for the spoiler ;)

It was a good part. Let me tell you more about it....

hehe shaddaap

this chat should have that script notifying you when someone is writing, like gtalk and some others, can't really scare you with three e.t.c. dots LOL

Hey @AviD...

@TildalWave heh, Batman is a dick.

@AviD He might be asking what that was for.

@AviD Oh, someone's using Dokuwiki. That's a pretty not bad system there. Page level acls baby.

@ScottPack its for @Adnan, when they run out of cactii.

@AviD Makes sense.

@LucasKauffman after a conference some of the girls from my previous work wanted to take me into Amsterdam to see a 'show' - I had to decline to go to an empeg meetup... schofiel.home.xs4all.nl/empeg/usermeet

possibly outgeeked myself

Goddamn I had forgotten how much rage Adbu's gravatar induces.

@ScottPack adbu?

@RoryAlsop Abdu, sorry. Search that on the user page.

hahahahaha

that's a very cheesy pic

@RoryAlsop dafuq is that

I'm not sure the term "very" is quite sufficient.

@LucasKauffman the best car stereo every invented

empegbbs.com

@TildalWave did you play the GoT drinking game?

@ScottPack If by he you mean me, then why not ask me instead? Or you're still upset because of that cobbler tease? :))) :P

I assumed he meant Dubya.

@AviD hehe didn't think of that possibility

@AviD watching it again it does look like that yarp... or "is this ribbed for my pleasure?" :))

"look what I pulled out me butt" :)))

"... or for @Adnan's?" ;-)

"dubya this"

I was implying that Dubya wouldn't know what the corn cob was for.

@ScottPack "Corn comes on COBS??!!?"

so today I saw a stereotypical "gangsta" black guy buying a single honeydew melon at Sainsbury's.

he be a posh nigga

@Polynomial I hear Snoop digs veggies too :)

@TildalWave yes, he does enjoy certain plants.

I'm not sure that qualifies as a vegetable.

@ScottPack That's what she said.

@ScottPack Being one of her "5 a day" would be a selling point.

I'm...keeping silent.

That's racist.

Hang on a second, was chat up and running the past 30 minutes?

@TildalWave Thanks :D I didn't expect that at all :D

I'm not so much into rep and all (although I expect to get to 3k eventually, where it starts to be fun to have rep), but what's your word on Sec.SE when compared to other SE sites regarding the speed of gaining rep... I think it's one of the toughest, by my observations.

@D3C4FF yeah for that question -- me neither. The answer is great tho, it even inspired me to make a reply of my own... you'll see what I mean with make LOL (tho someone took it personal for whatever reason)

@TildalWave Ahahaha. Classy bananas.

@TildalWave Yeah, i'm sure if sec.se had a userbase similar in size to SO rep would be much more quick to gain.

Its even slower in photo.se

@D3C4FF I love that photo since I first saw it... it's really cute... ape's self portrait LOL

@TildalWave Looks like he's stoned as...

@D3C4FF yeah hehe

The story is here: newscientist.com/blogs/shortsharpscience/2011/07/…

@TildalWave It's tough, but mostly because of the activity level. SF is much stingier.

@ScottPack Oh yes, and SF... I've noticed that. Here at least I'm not bothered because I'm actually learning loads and is fun to be around too... the atmosphere there (SF) isn't so much my cup of tea tho. And I've noticed many hit and run questions too

@TildalWave Indeed. In either case, the majority of questions on both sites don't much appeal to me. I've noticed that, on average, more voting happens on Sec.SE, but there's fewer posts to spread things around.

@ScottPack I have this gut feeling Sec.SE will grow much much stronger in time. Some SE sites have this quality feel to it and this one has it. Stats can tell you only that much, it's also about the attitude and the general feeling people get... plus, IT security as a conversational subject is still only scraping the surface in terms of global scale popularity, which is fast changing as more people become aware of their need for it IMO

those questions we call rep trains sorta prove this... it's becoming popular, but most aren't yet ready to plunge into the deep end of it

@TildalWave Oh, I can't disagree with your assessment.

I suppose what I mean, though, is that the majority of the questions that I see are more about topics that I don't enjoy. Things like applications, cryptography, etc.

Some of the pentesting ones I see are interesting, but they tend to be more appy than I like. I'm more a vulnerability management guy than a penetration testing guy.

Woo woo, first thunderstorm.
