The DMZ

David Freitag

20:00

@RoryAlsop Yeah plus you were kinda busy

Rory Alsop

@DavidFreitag hahahahaha

Henry WH Hack

Wait there are rules for the chatrooms amazing can I see the rules please?

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag Wait, were you the one beating me because I've been bad?

Rory Alsop

@HenryWHHack ...

rule 1 - be nice

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo No I think that was @Simon's mom

Rory Alsop

20:00

rule 2 - follow guidance of the room's regular community

rule 3 - there is NOOOO rule 3

Ixrec

don't cause trouble is pretty much the only rule

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag That explains the muffin top shadow

Iszi

@RoryAlsop Ooh, I miss something? Or just not pay attention? Reminds me, I really should start cleaning up in case another election does come around. Hell, been meaning to for awhile. Y'all are just too damn fun as it is though.

Rоry McCune

@RoryAlsop it's one of @Adi 's bots

David Freitag

@RoryAlsop 4 - 4PM EST is donut hour

Thomas Pornin

20:01

@HenryWHHack The same as in all human-to-human communication. That which you would not say face-to-face, don't do it in chat either.

Rory Alsop

@Iszi lol - we aren't having an election. But that's all a good idea anyway

@RоryMcCune really?

David Freitag

@ThomasPornin That doesn't really work.

I would say way worse things in person than I would in chat.

Rory Alsop

@Adi - this true? Henry is one of your bots?

Iszi

@RoryAlsop I'm not surprised that there isn't one planned, but they tend to be not really predictable or forewarned.

Thomas Pornin

@RoryAlsop He, you also made that hypothesis ?

Rоry McCune

20:03

@RoryAlsop well I think I'm the only person that thinks so, but the facts fit. @HenryWHHack acts very bot like, and @Adi is the kind of person who would write/test a bot + his interactions with the bot gave me that impression

Rory Alsop

@Iszi they sort of are - they come around when growth means mods are getting heavily loaded

Rоry McCune

I may well be wrong of course :)

Thomas Pornin

But in some cases it answers too well.

Rory Alsop

@ThomasPornin Was t'other Rory who said it

Simon

It's not a bot you silly donuts.

David Freitag

20:03

@RoryAlsop Is that a euphemism?

Rory Alsop

@DavidFreitag it is now

Iszi

@RoryAlsop Yeah, but it's not like we usually see a lot of Meta chatter leading up to it or whatever. SEI/Mods just kinda seem to come to the decision in the background.

Rоry McCune

@Simon what makes you say that, it's hardly answered a single direct question asked to it, that's not human (even troll) behaviour

Thomas Pornin

Also I admit that at one point I saw @Adi and Henry leaving the room at the same time, so that's suspicious.

Rory Alsop

@Iszi at risk of spilling secrets - a bit of chat with existing mods happens

Simon

20:04

@RоryMcCune He did answer direct questions.

Iszi

@RoryAlsop That's no secret. It's a very reasonable assumption.

Simon

I almost typed "It", damn it.

Rоry McCune

@Simon in an even semi-intelligent manner? where...

David Freitag

@RоryMcCune Conversation doesn't have to be semi-intelligent. I mean look at @Simon he chats in here quite frequently.

Simon

13 mins ago, by Henry WH Hack

What's the job?

dovid pls

Ixrec

20:05

Henry's indirectness feels like that of a human rather than a bot to me

Rоry McCune

@Simon that's barely a reply let alone intelligent

Rory Alsop

@RоryMcCune and they have asked 4 questions here and some on AU

(bad questions, admittedly)

Iszi

@Ixrec Just means he can pass a light Turing test.

Rory Alsop

and so bad I can't imagine Adi did that

Thomas Pornin

Now I suppose that one could make a passable bot by, at random times, selecting a message, doing a search for the same terms in the room history, and using a copy of an answer which was made to a past match.

Simon

20:06

@RоryMcCune I asked him if he'd like to be one and he asked what's the job, how is that not a reply?

Rоry McCune

@RoryAlsop sure humans can make bots and create some back story... but as I say could well be wrong

Ixrec

@ThomasPornin isn't this essentially what Cleverbot does?

Iszi

@ThomasPornin That's it! We need a ShitSESays bot!

David Freitag

@Simon I think what @RоryMcCune means is that it's a reply that could easily have been formulated by a bot based on keywords from your message.

Rоry McCune

@Simon because his initial statement was just "moderator" anyway meh you reckon he/its real feel free to converse

TildalWave

20:07

@Iszi just flag something

(don't!)

Simon

What about when he said that he's gonna leave before ovid bans him like he did yesterday?

HUH, WHAT ABOUT THAT LADS?

Mark Buffalo

@Simon Bot with human input

Ixrec

or the part where I suggested he read proper books and he asked me what an improper book would be

Thomas Pornin

@Ixrec Apparently yes.

Rоry McCune

@Simon really, human operator adds keyword Avid to phrase list, geez you could even do that in PHP

Ixrec

20:08

that's a hard one for a bot to pull off

Iszi

@TildalWave Waitwut? What about what I said indicated to you that I wanted to invite every mod & 10k user on SE into this chat?

Simon

@Ixrec That was @Iszi: chat.stackexchange.com/messages/27971350/history

Mark Buffalo

@Ixrec actually, I did this as a kid

David Freitag

@Ixrec You're not supposed to pull the hard bit off

Mark Buffalo

it's simple... let me show you

TildalWave

20:09

@Iszi "ShitSESays"

Simon

@MarkBuffalo The older sister question?

Yup.

Iszi

@TildalWave Oh, c'mon! I know you know about ShitSESays.

Mark Buffalo

if (text.Contains("keyword")) { say("what would a(n) opposite-of-word be?"); }

Thomas Pornin

@TildalWave The button is marked "flag this message as spam, inappropriate or offensive", but it should really be called "release the mod swarm !"

9

Mark Buffalo

that's very basic

Simon

20:10

o I misread what you posted Markus.

TildalWave

@Iszi ha no, I didn't

Mark Buffalo

@Simon lulz

Iszi

@ThomasPornin Heh. We should totally flag that, just to share it with the whole of Chat.SE.

Simon

@Iszi I dare you.

David Freitag

@Iszi Double dog dare you.

Ixrec

20:11

they could just show the flagged message without a link to the offending chat room if they wanted to reduce the swarming

Simon

@deed02392 @Matthew Wow, are you guys touching tips at work and decided to join the room at the same time?

Iszi

@Ixrec But swarming is needed for them to obtain context. Y'know, if they're actually going to be rational and responsible in handling the flag.

ROFLMAO. I keel myself!

Matthew

@Simon Well, I'm not currently at work, and we are based in offices at opposite ends of the country...

Simon

@Matthew Odd.

Ixrec

showing context as part of the flag overlay would also stop a lot of the swarming

Rоry McCune

20:12

@Matthew nah you're both down south really :op

Matthew

@RоryMcCune He's further south!

Simon

ok bye

David Freitag

@Matthew Wow, one of you must be quite large if you can touch tips from opposite ends of a continent.

Rоry McCune

@Matthew this is true

Thomas Pornin

@DavidFreitag Aren't they British ? England is small. The other end of the country is in yelling range.

David Freitag

20:14

@ThomasPornin Yelling range is still quite far.

Iszi

Oh, this one's good.

Ohnana

@Iszi LMAO

@Matthew oh lawd!

Thomas Pornin

@Ohnana That guy was the président de l'Assemblée Nationale and that was his way to protest against the submission of more than 137000 amendment proposals to a controversial law.

David Freitag

@ThomasPornin By senseless aggression towards mother nature?

Iszi

May 1 '14 at 16:12, by Scott Pack

It's true. @AviD is, without question, the perviest guy here. I just like to feed it.

Ohnana

@ThomasPornin damn

David Freitag

Man, you Canadihueans really know how to protest.

Thomas Pornin

20:19

@DavidFreitag He just wanted to show that even in France, there is such a thing as ridiculously too much.

David Freitag

@Iszi Feed it? You're supposed to feed it?!

This explains everything!

@ThomasPornin This would be some of the source code I looked at

@Iszi I don't get it.

Ohnana

20:19

@DavidFreitag lions, tigers, bears, oh myyyy

David Freitag

@Ohnana Still don't get it

Iszi

@Ohnana Give up. You'll end up making it un-funny if you have to 'splain it more

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag Me neither. I can't understand it. "Image not found."

Matthew

@MarkBuffalo "Image not found"! Priceless! laughs maniacally

David Freitag

@Iszi Is it like a "football players are sexy thing"? That's possibly why I don't get it.

Mark Buffalo

20:21

@Iszi I just viewed this on my phone. LOL

Now I get it

Iszi

Adi

Who bot what?!

Iszi

For the "Image Not Found" crowd.

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag This guy is always saying, "Oh myyyy"

David Freitag

@Adi that's exactly what someone who unleashed a bot on the defenseless DMZ would say.

Iszi

20:22

@MarkBuffalo The "guy" has a name.

Mark Buffalo

@MarkBuffalo orlly?

Iszi

20:22

@MarkBuffalo No, it's Hikaru Sulu, damnit!

David Freitag

@Adi No they're not giving you any credit at all. If it were you and it were your bot, it's not a very good one. Just sayin.

Mark Buffalo

@Iszi Maybe I was wrong. Nobuo Uematsu?

Iszi

Oh, FFS...

David Freitag

@Iszi You got trolled hard son

Iszi

Hikaru Sulu

Hikaru Sulu is a character in the Star Trek media franchise. Originally known simply as 'Sulu', he was portrayed by George Takei in the original Star Trek series. Sulu also appears in the animated Star Trek series, the first six Star Trek movies, one episode of Star Trek: Voyager, and in numerous books, comics, and video games. Sulu's first name, 'Hikaru,' appeared in a 1981 novel well over a decade after the original series had ended. John Cho assumed the role of the character in both the 2009 film Star Trek and its sequels, Star Trek Into Darkness and Star Trek Beyond. == Development an...

George Takei

George Hosato Takei (武井穂郷, Takei Hosato, /təˈkeɪ/; born April 20, 1937) is an American actor, director, author, and activist. Takei is most widely known for his role as Hikaru Sulu, helmsman of the USS Enterprise in the television series Star Trek. He also portrayed the character in six Star Trek feature films and in an episode of Star Trek: Voyager. Takei's involvement in social media has brought him new fame. His Facebook page currently has almost 9.5 million likes since he joined in 2011, frequently sharing photos with original humorous commentary. He is a proponent of LGBT rights and active...

LOL! OneBox used the same image for both.

Mark Buffalo

20:24

@Iszi Can't be George Takei. He's in color

And looks older

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo I can't tell if you're being serious

Mark Buffalo

I think it's Inejiro Asanuma.

Iszi

Holy crap, the main pic on Wiki makes him look older than I've ever realized.

Matthew

vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/bigbangtheory/images/5/50/…

Aww... no image...

Iszi

@MarkBuffalo Is this a racist thing?

David Freitag

20:25

@Iszi Yeah he's getting pretty old

Mark Buffalo

@Iszi Huh? How on earth?

Iszi

@MarkBuffalo You saying all Asians look the same or something?

Mark Buffalo

This seems nsfw....

@Iszi ...no... this is... it's one of those... you know the meme/joke where people mix up someone's name horribly?

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo NSFYW maybe

Iszi

@MarkBuffalo Turned up to 11... or 12, I guess?

David Freitag

20:26

@MarkBuffalo Well it's highly unfunny

Mark Buffalo

alright fine

I'll go back to my corner with my dunce hat

and stare at the screen

David Freitag

Maybe that'll teach you to come up with a good joke :P

Iszi

Let's get off of this...

in The Comms Room, Apr 12 '13 at 17:14, by freiheit

Drug testing sysadmins sounds crazy. You have to be on some kind of drugs to do this work. Well, to do it without killing anybody...

Mark Buffalo

okay, I came up with a good joke during my solitude. never mind, can't google jokes here

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo Was that the joke...?

Matthew

20:28

@Iszi In a previous job, we fired a sysadmin for being on drugs. We wouldn't have minded, but they were causing problems....

David Freitag

One of the three guys we just hired is a huge pot head

Mark Buffalo

@Matthew Eh, I've been at a place where people were hitting hard drugs during work... not a place I'd like to ever go back to

Ohnana

if you're doing drugs at work, GFYS

David Freitag

@Ohnana Depends on what your job is

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag unless your job is "drug tester"

David Freitag

20:30

Sitting in a toll booth? Go ahead, get baked.

Matthew

@MarkBuffalo Oh, they weren't in work at the time. We had a problem, they remoted in whilst high and started trying to fix things by randomly changing settings

Ohnana

...you're surrounded by cars and trucks

be sober

David Freitag

Brain surgeon? Eh, what's a little cocaine.

Mark Buffalo

@Matthew That's... uh...

Iszi

in The Comms Room, May 29 '12 at 1:41, by Chris S

@MarkHenderson There's something wrong with a guy who hears "silicone" and thinks of bathroom sealant before breast augmentation.

Matthew

20:31

@MarkBuffalo Yeah...

David Freitag

@Ohnana A little pot isn't going to cause to to spontaneously hop out into traffic. If anything it will make you wish you packed a bag of doritos for lunch

Ohnana

@Iszi my answer is neither

Rory Alsop

@Iszi I would always think silicon sealant or something else before breast augmentation...

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag Okay, so we're going to perform a lobotomy of the western hemisphere here...*starts shaking, slices through brain tissue, severing neurons*

Matthew

@Iszi I wonder if you could use bathroom sealant for budget boob jobs...

2

Xander

20:31

@RoryAlsop Me too.

Ohnana

@Matthew NO!

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo That's... you should stop.

Iszi

@RoryAlsop Maybe that's called "married homeowner with kids" syndrome?

David Freitag

@Matthew There's only one way to find out

Thomas Pornin

David Freitag

20:32

@Ohnana You say that with some amount of authority. Perhaps you know from firsthand experience?

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag I don't know. I've seen pictures, dude. One guy was severely burned after his pot bong exploded.

Iszi

@DavidFreitag $50 USD says someone already has.

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag people have tried, and a lot of them usually die

Mark Buffalo

Another dude became homeless and HIV positive because of the mariguana

Thomas Pornin

Ohnana

20:33

it escapes the boob area, gets into the bloodstream, and then you die of a giant clot

David Freitag

@ThomasPornin moosh

Iszi

@ThomasPornin Is that like, interracial porn for you or something?

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana Regarding the last word, I misread one vowel

David Freitag

@Ohnana That's why you seal it in a bag, duuuh

Ohnana

@MarkBuffalo hehhe

David Freitag

20:33

@MarkBuffalo huehuehue

Iszi

@MarkBuffalo Nice.

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag do you know how hard it is to create a flexible bag your body doesn't slowly destroy

Mark Buffalo

@ThomasPornin You have @AviD there. Who is the lioness?

Iszi

@ThomasPornin Well, whatever you call it. Pretty cool.

David Freitag

@Ohnana Oh yeah ( ͜ಠ ᴥ ͜ಠ )

Mark Buffalo

you're all nasty

I hope you all dive

Rоry McCune

@deed02392 huhwhut?

Thomas Pornin

20:36

@Iszi Found it by pure chance. Apparently the three animals were found in the basement of a drug dealer. They were very young, and they grew together in a refuge, where they are apparently the best pals ever.

talking about tips

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag don't play innocent

David Freitag

@deed02392 Just the tip. Just for a second.

in The Comms Room, Jan 10 '14 at 20:20, by TheCleaner

David Freitag

@Ohnana TurboTax FTW

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag meh. it took me about 5 minutes to fill it out

pa direct file is god-tier tho

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana took me an hour

I used the thing. Jackson Hewitt

Ohnana

20:46

lol 1040 ezpz life

David Freitag

@Ohnana Took me 2 minutes to check all the ckeckboxes in TurboTax and it auto-imported my W-2

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana 1880x1040

David Freitag

@Ohnana Yeah and how much is your return going to be? I got $1800 back.

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag Damn, that's gotta be nifty

My return was 27k

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo Granted it costs like $40 to use TurboTax, but out of my return I don't really care

Ohnana

20:47

i think like 800 combined local + federal

i owed the state of PA one dollar

Xander

@Iszi Are you walking down memory lane? When there were actually people in the comms room?

Ohnana

>:|

David Freitag

@Ohnana Should try turbo tax next year

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag Yeah, cost me about 40 too

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag why tho

Mark Buffalo

20:47

but I could've done it for free

I already filled everything else out and went "screw it... $40 is worth 1 hour of time"

Ohnana

it's a damn 1040 EZ, it's as useful as calc.exe

David Freitag

@Ohnana Bigger return? You can fill everything out and let it do magic and still not pay them until it actually files

Simon

@ThomasPornin This bear is much cuter than you.

Mark Buffalo

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag how am i gonna get a bigger return? someone claims me as a dependent

Xander

20:48

@Ohnana There's a free version of Turbo Tax online for the 1040EZ. It's what we used for my kid's return this year.

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana Wait. Are you living with them?

David Freitag

@Ohnana 1098-T? Donations? School supplies? Moving expenses? TurboTax has a shitload of stuff that I never even thought of

Ohnana

@MarkBuffalo no, but they're paying for 75% of my expenses

@DavidFreitag my dad claims that since he pays it

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag With Jackson Hewitt, our $11k moving expenses got us next to nothing for a refund

Xander

@MarkBuffalo You're still a dependent even in college if they pay for more than half of your expenses.

David Freitag

20:50

@Ohnana Yeah but that doesn't mean you can't claim some of that stuff

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana Ah, 75%. That makes sense

Xander

@DavidFreitag You can't itemize on a 1040EZ.

David Freitag

It's only tax fraud if you get caught.

@Xander But you can with TurboTax

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag yeah i don't want to have the irs crawling up my butt

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag NEVER cheat the government. NEVER commit fraud. I know you're joking, but those are so damn serious

Ohnana

20:50

noooo thank you

Mark Buffalo

you WILL get caught

David Freitag

@Ohnana It feels really good.

Mark Buffalo

and they will shit on you from such a height, you'll think Halley's Comet showed up 45 years early

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo No way man, TurboTax said my chances of getting audited are next to nothing, and they provide audit insurance!

Iszi

@Xander Nah, I just keep hitting "Another" on ShitSESays.

Mark Buffalo

20:51

Audit insurance doesn't protect you from fraud.......

Ohnana

RIP david. cause of death: freedom applied directly to the forehead

Mark Buffalo

Audit insurance protects you from unintentional mistakes

Xander

@Iszi Ah!

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana lmfao

David Freitag

@Ohnana :P

But seriously @Ohnana if you bought books or a laptop or anything for school you can claim it with TurboTax. Same thing with car registration fees, property taxes. All kinds of stuff.

Simon

20:53

I just opened a fortune cookie and it says: "Simplicity and clarity should be your theme in dress". Does that mean that I just turn into a chick?

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag i bought like... 100 bucks worth of books

thats it

David Freitag

@Ohnana And that's $100 the IRS will give you back

Ohnana

@Simon no, wear the male fashion uniform

David Freitag

@Simon @Ohnana No, no. It's telling him to wear a tutu.

Ohnana

> As a result, you can deduct your books only if you must purchase them through the school as a condition of attendance. For example, if your school requires that every student enrolled purchase a certain textbook from the school, you could deduct the cost of that book. However, if the school simply says the student needs the book, but the student can purchase from the school or elsewhere, the cost of that book cannot be deducted.

@Simon This kinda suggests nudism.

Ohnana

i am ineligible

David Freitag

@Ohnana That's not what TurboTax said.

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana This is something I'd like to be able to provide to my kids... nice to see your parents got you that

Simon

@ThomasPornin Does it?!

Ohnana

20:54

@MarkBuffalo i pirated most of it

Mark Buffalo

but actually, my kids will get to go to college for free... because native american

Ohnana

@DavidFreitag turbotax is scammin your shit

Simon

@ThomasPornin Oh are you saying I'm lacking simplicity and clarity you sneaky bastard?

David Freitag

@Ohnana Either way, the IRS isn't going to care about a few hundred dollars

Mark Buffalo

Yes they are

Ohnana

20:55

@DavidFreitag and neither do i

Mark Buffalo

They'll turn the whole country upside down for $0.01

Ohnana

PA whined at me over 75 dollars

(that i had already sent them)

Simon

2 other cookies said "Have fun tonight"

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo Ignorance of the law does not equate to doing something illegal.

Simon

So much wisdom.

Mark Buffalo

20:56

@DavidFreitag Ignorance of the law isn't really a valid defense

David Freitag

@Simon Just make sure to call your parents to secure bail money.

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana Do your parents rent your apartment or something?

Thomas Pornin

Snow has abated. It is time to go forage for food.

Ohnana

@MarkBuffalo they give me money that i use to pay the landlord

David Freitag

@ThomasPornin Eww snow

Ohnana

20:57

so i still have to be an adult and handle money, i just get to not worry about making enough money

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana Yeah, so I was thinking of buying a house next to a university so my kids can just... rent it from me for free later.

Ohnana

@MarkBuffalo i would recommend against that

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana Whycome?

They might go to another school? d:

Ohnana

living around college kids is fun if you're a college kid. and landlords know that mummy and daddy are paying, so rents/morgages are kinda high

and there is fuck all near colleges in remote areas

Mark Buffalo

Depends on the area. Some are really low

Ohnana

20:58

scope out the neighborhood, it may have nothing around it that suits a family

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo Also college campuses tend to attract the wrong sort of people

Ohnana

the "amenities" and such

Mark Buffalo

@Ohnana No, I mean... a second house later

And rent it out to make cash money while they're growing

Ohnana

ah, that might be worth it
