The DMZ

Scott Pack

16:00

On my 1:45h drive to the office on Fridays I drive past a Tim Horton's so I can pull into another that's easier to get in and out of.

Adnan

Hehehehahahahahehehehe

... quick, let's get him an appeasing position of apparent power and keep him far away from us.... — Jeff Ferland 16 mins ago

Scott Pack

Hell, it looks like I drive past 4 of them before I even get out of Columbus.

Michael Dunfield

@kalina Wait, what. Does that not exist anywhere else?

kalina

@MichaelDunfield I can't say "anywhere" else, but not in my experience, no

Scott Pack

Until last week Tim's was having a deal where any sized coffee was $1. That made me sad when it ended.

Michael Dunfield

16:02

I hate coffee.

I drank it during my internship after I fell asleep at work one day.

But I didn't like it.

Simon

@ScottPack Wait, what? You do have Tim Horton's in the US?

Michael Dunfield

@Simon Yeah, they've started into the US.

Scott Pack

Goddammit. Now I want Timbits

For a long...long time.

Simon

@MichaelDunfield Reeeeeally?

Rory Alsop

Ain't no Tim Hortons in Scotland

Michael Dunfield

16:03

@Simon Yeah, a while ago actually.

Simon

@MichaelDunfield Man, I always associated it as Canadian business.

Rory Alsop

But then I don't want the taste of coffee to ruin my caffeine intake so I'm not bothered...as long as I get my Irn Bru I'm fine!

Michael Dunfield

@Simon It totally is. It's the largest brand in Canada.

Scott Pack

@Simon goo.gl/Jxld4E

Simon

@ScottPack For the next 4 Fridays, I will be waiting for you at one of them.

@MichaelDunfield Do you drive at 100 km/h in the left lane when you're in QC?

Michael Dunfield

16:07

I don't drive at all.

So no, sorry.

Rory Alsop

he flies!

Michael Dunfield

But haaaaa

Rory Alsop

Oh, no that was @Kalina

Adnan

Okay, guys. Let's get serious for 5 minutes.

What do we think about this: area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/38311/… ?

Michael Dunfield

@Adnan I refuse.

Adnan

16:10

I'm thinking about starting a discussion there about merging with us.

Rory Alsop

i can't - I have just watched over 250 emails in response to an email sent to a distribution list asking to be removed from the list. It got funny after the first 50, then blackberries started dying and it got hilarious

ManishEarth

@Adnan Well, we're not exactly the best environment for non-info security

Michael Dunfield

@Adnan hot

Adnan

@ManishEarth Looking at their questions, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't fit in our "new" slightly broader scope.

@RoryA @AviD Ideas?

@Scott and @Gilles also

kalina

@Adnan this proposal has the most answers I've ever seen on a proposal linked in chat

Adnan

16:16

@kalina Questions?

kalina

@Adnan that word, yes

that was a bit of a brain failure for a brief moment

it happens

Adnan

@kalina It's alright, this is a safe place

kalina

safe is boring

I don't feel at home unless half of the world around me is burning to the ground

Adnan

@kalina 1996?

kalina

@Adnan ...?

Adnan

16:21

@kalina The year you were born

kalina

no

you wish I was 17

Adnan

@kalina You cannot be older than 20

kalina

@Adnan first of all, why not?

Adnan

So, 1993?

kalina

@Adnan second of all, I'm not

thirdly, even if you guessed correctly, I would provide you no confirmation

Jeff Ferland

16:23

Soooo... play a lot of GTA or time travel to WWII?

kalina

@JeffFerland play payday 2

Adnan

@kalina Too many questions

kalina

@Adnan ok let's do them one at a time

Why can't I be older than 20?

which was actually the only question I asked

Adnan

@kalina Just a a gut feeling. You talk like @Simon

kalina

I don't know Simon and therefore don't know if I should hug you or set fire to you

Terry Chia

16:25

@kalina The latter.

kalina

sets fire to @Adnan

Simon

I'm the good guy here.

Adnan

@kalina Simon is a great guy.

kalina

stop messing with my head

I only have to survive 3 more minutes until hometime

don't make me run out of sanity before then

Adnan

@kalina He actually is.

Simon

16:27

@kalina A/S/L?

kalina

@Simon er... this isn't Yahoo chat

Adnan

@Simon You did not just say that!

Simon

@kalina I'm not sure how to tell you but... it actually is.

Adnan

I was just saying you're a nice guy.

kalina

@Simon no it's not

Simon

16:28

@Adnan ASL is soooo old school that I can't just not use it.

Adnan

@Simon Get out of here, you're not Canadian in my eyes any more.

kalina

if you ASL me again, I will end each message I post with "xD"

Simon

@kalina You're no fun.

Terry Chia

@Simon So I guess A/S/L for you will be "13, F, Worst Country in the world"? :P

kalina

I am a different kind of fun

Simon

16:29

@kalina At least it's not ":3"

kalina

@Simon if you ASL me again, EVER, I will ":3" you in pings multiple times a day, every day until you quit

like this:

@Simon :3

@Simon xD

Simon

@kalina Can't you ignore people in here?

Terry Chia

@kalina You should look into scripting it.

kalina

you can

but who would put me on ignore? I'm literally the nicest person in the world

HOMETIME!

Simon

And then on the next day, she cheats on you.

I don't trust ladies anymore.

Adnan

16:33

@Simon You can trust @Kalina. She has a Slavic name, just like your best friend @Svetlana

Simon

@Adnan I hated that bitch, I'm glad she's gone.

Adnan

@Simon Haa! :O

Simon

You know why I hate her? Because it meant that I wouldn't see my @Adnan if she was around :(

Adnan

@Simon Awwww! <3

Scott Pack

@Adnan I don't feel like our scope has been broadened, only renamaed.

Simon

16:37

Renamaed.

Scott Pack

@Simon She looked like a man in drag.

Simon

@ScottPack Damn right.

Gilles

@Adnan our scope hasn't changed, we just brought the name closer to the scope (but still not quite all the way)

Scott Pack

Like @Gilles said. We don't go all the way.

Gilles

12

A: Privacy is not Information Security

As you write, all technical questions related to privacy are already on-topic and being asked on Security. This includes questions on organizational policies and legal requirements. Discussions about proposed changes to legislation belong on a larger site about politics, if politics can work in ...

Jeff Ferland

16:38

@Simon xkcdb.com/2477

Scott Pack

Jeffe!!

Simon

@JeffFerland Man, I'm so confused.

Adnan

@ScottPack @Gilles True. Perhaps I didn't express my opinion well enough

But, looking at their sample questions, almost all of them fit here.

Simon

@Gilles What an outdated answer. Your link should say "Information Security".

Adnan

@Gilles Similar thoughts

Scott Pack

16:40

I seem to remember that someone here uses the handle Autocracy at places.

Gilles

@Simon on the contrary, I'm ahead of the times, I use the name Security

Simon

Alright, this is the last time that I write something to Gilles, he always makes me feel bad.

It's over.

Scott Pack

I need to go throw a few shitty answers out. I'm getting pretty close to 10k.

Rory McCune

interesting article on password cracking

arstechnica.com/security/2013/10/…

Simon

@RoryMcCune Cool, I'll read it before I go to bed tonight to have sweet dreams!

Rory McCune

16:46

@Simon well sweet dreams are made of this, who am I to disagree?

Simon

@RoryMcCune Of course!

kalina

@Adnan I don''t get it

Simon

@kalina It'd be weird if you'd get it.

kalina

it was more of a prompt for you to provide backstory

I don't like the colours in here

they seem pale

Gilles

@kalina that's what he said

kalina

16:49

on the flag/ping counters on your avatar

Gilles

@Simon what? are you saying you're too good for me?

Simon

Wow, did @Gilles just say that?

@Gilles The other way around.

@kalina As a very scientific experiment, @Adnan changed his display name to Svetlana to see if he'd get more profile views.

kalina

oh righht

best way to get profile views is to be omnipresent

name doesn't really matter that much

Simon

Well, he did change his profile picture to a lady too.

Adnan

@kalina and I gained a decent amount of views.

I don't remember the numbers, but I think I went up 300-400 views in a week.

kalina

16:53

I got loads of views by being extremely active

and then I deleted all proof by deleting my account

and now my party trick is having 26k rep in <2 months

Adnan

> profile views: 538

Pfffft!

kalina

@Adnan it was over 4k before I deleted

which for Arqade, is reasonably high

Adnan

@kalina Whoa! That is high. Only 2k short of Thomas'

kalina

i think RavenDreamer has highest profile views on Arqade

Scott Pack

I'm still below 1k profile views. I need to work on that.

kalina

16:56

well I got 538 in 64 days

Simon

@ScottPack I thought you'd have way more than that, pretty boy.

Scott Pack

@Simon inorite

Simon

@kalina You mean in 2^6 days. This is InfoSec, you know.

kalina

I... don't... have any interest in this stuff

Simon

Oh, you'd rather go to raves, right?

kalina

16:58

in fact, if it wasn't for the flag abuse, I (a) wouldn't know this site existed, and (b) wouldn't know this chat existed, and (c) wouldn't know any of you existed (apart from @ManishEarth)

Adnan

@kalina data.stackexchange.com/gaming/query/edit/141697

ManishEarth

haha

This site is awesome, btw. Also this chat

Except when @AviD's around.

That put's a damper on things. :P

kalina

@Adnan such a sad story

also, account undeletes don't restore your review queue history

so I don't even have my site first badges for 1000 reviews in all queues apart from close/reopen

(and suggested edits, Raven got that first)

@ManishEarth Is it more or less crazy than the bridge?

DOES IT CONTAIN FREQUENT DRAMA

Simon

@Adnan I'm feeling lonely these days.

kalina

@Simon I would actually, dancing is the best thing ever

David Freitag

17:00

I don't know, it got pretty crazy last night with me and @Adnan.

kalina

but mainly, drugs.

ManishEarth

@kalina pretty crazy. Drama too, but not the Bridge kind

usually nsfw

kalina

I don't care about whether its NSFW or not as long as it's not degrading to women

David Freitag

Heh, ayep.

kalina

and then... well, drama

Simon

17:01

@kalina This is where I was last month: youtube.com/watch?v=rIkTGpD8rfY

Scott Pack

@kalina What about degrading to Canadians?

David Freitag

As long as you don't count TWSS as degrading to women

kalina

why would you want to be degrading to Canadians? They're not American

Gilles

@kalina no, we don't do drama here. move along

Adnan

@Simon Do you CryptoCat?

Simon

17:01

LOL

kalina

@DavidFreitag depends if they're funny or not

Simon

@kalina 10/10

kalina

@Gilles everybody else disagrees with you

Gilles

@DavidFreitag half the time it's degrading to men

Simon

@Adnan No, I probably should.

Adnan

17:02

@DavidFreitag What happened?! O_o

kalina

@Gilles degrading to men is absolutely fine.

Adnan

I was asleep all the time

Scott Pack

@kalina But they are Canadian.

David Freitag

I still like how confused i got when @Adnan became @Svetlana...

Simon

@DavidFreitag Hahaha.

Adnan

17:02

@DavidFreitag Goot days

@Simon Don't feel lonely. We're all to comfort you with our cacti

kalina

I will comfort you with combustion

...of your face

Scott Pack

BAM!

Simon

QQ

David Freitag

@kalina I have some spare thermite, if you want some.

Simon

It's so much easier when you're in a relationship.

kalina

17:04

I don't need thermite

David Freitag

nobody needs thermite..

Simon

You don't have to go to clubs and be all cute to the ladies.

kalina

my spite is one of the powerful inflammables in the world

Simon

@DavidFreitag YOU AND YOUR TERMITES.

David Freitag

@Simon You say that, right up until i burn a hole through your engine block.

kalina

17:05

if by "engine block", you mean "heart", I'm fine with this

violence towards inanimate objects is uncalled for

David Freitag

Actually, this weekend i resupplied my potassium nitrate supply and made mini rockets with some sugar and some mega blocks

Adnan

@Simon What?! Be all cute to the ladies? Does that yield any results?

kalina

no we normally just think you're freaky

David Freitag

Haven't quite perfected the manufacturing process, i had about a 20% explosion to rocket ratio

Adnan

@kalina You're sub 20, your opinion on this matter doesn't count.

David Freitag

17:07

@Adnan By cute i think he meant use chloroform.

Adnan

Actually, same goes for anything sub 25

kalina

@Adnan you never actually worked out my age, this statement is uneducated

Adnan

@kalina Allow me to correct that. You seem to be sub 20, your opinion on this matter doesn't count.

kalina

that is so rude

Adnan

@kalina Not at all.

I'm not trying to be rude or offensive.

kalina

17:09

tis

Adnan

It's just that I would really consult a teenager on women-related issues

Yeah, if I were 18, I'd be happy to ask you for advice

David Freitag

@Adnan Ah, but you forget. It's not about the intention, but interpretation.

kalina

As much as I wish I was still a teenager, I'm' actually 20

I would write a huge sentence berating your rudeness but I am too busy rolling a huge joint

2

and once I light it, I will cease to care anyway

I suppose I should create an account on this site to get the chat badge

David Freitag

Nah, it's not worth the effort.

Scott Pack

Neither's your face.

Adnan

17:11

@ScottPack NICE!

Scott Pack

Nice.

kalina

you're right, I don't want to artificially inflate your user count and make you look popular

Adnan

@kalina We are popular.

kalina

@Adnan no

Scott Pack

I had a haircut this morning. I should probably vacuum my scalp.

Adnan

17:12

@ScottPack Oooor, take a shower?

Simon

@Adnan Rarely.

kalina

that would mean he's showered twice today

men don't do that

Scott Pack

@Adnan That would wash off the fancy shave oil and dusting they put on after the razor work.

kalina

or maybe it means he would have showered once today

...

Scott Pack

@kalina I end up taking two showers per day most weekends.

Adnan

17:13

@ScottPack Hehehehehe

Jesus!

kalina

weekends I spend most of the weekend asleep, showering more than twice would be a waste

Scott Pack

That's what happens when you do exterior work.

Simon

@ScottPack Wild one.

Adnan

Ahh, I'm way too drunk for The DMZ.

Scott Pack

@Adnan Unpossible.

Adnan

17:14

@ScottPack Can't you see how nice I'm being to @Simon?

kalina

@Adnan hey wait, you're drunk? Watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic!

CodesInChaos

@DavidFreitag Only wusses us termite. Nukes are the real thing.

David Freitag

@kalina I would rather carve my eyes out and swap them with my testicles.

Adnan

@DavidFreitag I like to keep my testicles right where they are, thank you.

kalina

@DavidFreitag MLP:FiM is guaranteed to be liked by all men who're intoxicated, I have a 100% conversion success level in the matter

David Freitag

17:15

@CodesInChaos Yes, i forgot about my hidden supply of weapons grade plutonium.

kalina

...out of one

CodesInChaos

@kalina Watching is the harmless part. Listening is painful.

Adnan

@kalina Alright alright, I'm convinced. I just have to do something awful first.

Good night, everybody.

David Freitag

I'd rather not like to tempt fate, for all i know my eyes might just fall out of my head.

Adnan

Or morning.

kalina

17:16

@Adnan UGT states its night time

for you specifically

Adnan

Has anybody noticed that the "leave (all)" link is really small?

kalina

@Adnan have you noticed the big red X glows when you hover over it?

David Freitag

Nope

kalina

you best not be a mac user

David Freitag

Not.. even... remotely.

Adnan

17:17

I hate getting drunk on good whiskey.

kalina

I hate alcohol

Simon

@kalina Non-easy girl, pfft.

Adnan

@kalina It's a gift from god for lonely bimbos.

David Freitag

I got very drunk last night. Monday night margaritas. $3.50 for a Patron margarita all night long

Scott Pack

@kalina I'm a Mac user.

Adnan

17:18

I mean, really, without alcohol, 50% of women will be permanently sexless.

kalina

@Adnan this is pretty much it, I don't like the effects and it reduces the effort required to get me out of my clothes

Scott Pack

@Adnan And men.

Simon

@Adnan Amen.

kalina

@Adnan more men than women, it's our choice to get laid at the end of the day

Adnan

@kalina How cute!

kalina

17:19

@Adnan thanks

David Freitag

@kalina Unless of course someone has a rag soaked in chloroform.

Adnan

@ScottPack Don't get my started on that one.

kalina

@DavidFreitag this isn't even funny

Scott Pack

@kalina It is if you wear a banana suit.

Adnan

It's extremely difficult to get myself to listen to club girls for more than 1 minute, sober.

Nathan C

17:20

@DavidFreitag Does this smell like chloroform to you?

kalina

@Adnan what is a "club girl"?

that seems like a strange label

David Freitag

@NathanC Like @ScottPack i managed to build up a tolerance quite some time ago. So yes, it does!

Scott Pack

@DavidFreitag Oh, you misunderstand. I only developed a tolerance to ingested chloroform.

Adnan

@kalina About 80% of women who aren't locking themselves in their homes when not at work.

Nathan C

...rats.

David Freitag

17:22

@ScottPack Ah, right. Well, through some miracle of overuse, i can breathe chloroform all day.

kalina

@Adnan interesting. When you said "raving" earlier, I figured you meant an actual rave genre, like drum & bass, hardcore, etc

I don't do "highstreet clubs"

they're basically buildings full of sluts

feel like I'm going to catch something just by walking into one of those

Adnan

@kalina Can't agree more.

Scott Pack

Those places are too loud.

David Freitag

@kalina That's basically the point.

kalina

loud is not a problem

@DavidFreitag if I go to a club it's to dance

Scott Pack

17:22

Kids today.

Adnan

@Kalina Problem is that smart, nice, intelligent women with attractive personalities don't really put themselves in social settings. So the only thing left for us to do is go to these slut-infested places.

David Freitag

@kalina I don't normally go to clubs, but when i do, i remember to bring my pocket protector.

Adnan

Oh yeah, I was supposed to leave 15 mintuse ago

kalina

@Adnan smart, nice, intelligent women are either career oriented or already have the "companionship" thing covered one or more times

David Freitag

@kalina Which is exactly why most men are forced to go to clubs.

Simon

17:35

@Adnan So true.

@Adnan Soooooo true x2.

@DavidFreitag @Adnan Hey guys, let's go out together.

David Freitag

He's gone now @Simon, you've driven @Adnan to drink.

Simon

I'm so sorry.

cuz Canaduh

David Freitag

@Simon I can honestly say i wasn't surprised.

So, has the US government returned to normal operation yet? I can't tell..

Simon

17:52

You mean: is Obama done dancing in his office?

David Freitag

Something like that..
