My router blocks all connections that include the word "game" in the URL of the traffic, and I would like to play a game which is an external program. Browser proxies won't work. Is there a way to get around the filter? By the way, the game is called Strife.

If the close votes are tied, all the tied reasons get displayed.

Or, at least it works for 2-2-1 tie-ups. Would be interesting to see what it might do with a 1-1-1-1-1 tie-up.

@RоryMcCune I picked up the 840 Evo. Nice and cheap.

@TerryChia be interested to hear how you get on with the evo's . They are cheaper so if the perf/reliability is ok would make sense..

AviD

I was about to reopen that DVWA homework question - I'm not sure it should have been closed in the first place - but his latest revision comment just rubbed me the wrong way.

@RоryMcCune Will let you know how it goes once I have that added.

Terry Chia

@LucasKauffman Nothing much. Catching up on Breaking Bad.

Lucas Kauffman

@RоryMcCune what's up RoryM

@TerryChia loved that show

Rоry McCune

09:08

@LucasKauffman not much just starting a quick external (and the smeggers have got an unannounced IPS on one of the boxes)

Lucas Kauffman

@RоryMcCune I hate that

Rоry McCune

@LucasKauffman yeah I'm fine with IPS if that's part of the scope, but when it's not and you ask to be whitelisted.. ah well

Terry Chia

@RоryMcCune Maybe they didn't know it was there. ;)

Lucas Kauffman

^this

Rоry McCune

@TerryChia it's probable in this case, it's a box managed by a 3rd party, so quite likely our customer doesn't know..

In exploring South Park, I met a somewhat curious older gentleman hiding in he bushes over behind the movie theatre. It turns out that gentleman was former Vice President Al Gore. He promptly became my Facebook friend, and asked me to help him place some fancy science equipment around town. Afte...

@AviD the stick of truth does looks pretty cool. There's a PewDiePie walkthtrough on Youtube..

AviD

yeah I'm looking at it now. But I just meant that sometimes the questions there read like real life questions, just really absurd.

Rоry McCune

09:49

@AviD yeah some of the comments are ... interesting too

Haha, this is indeed super cheating :p. Anyway i'm playing on the pc too, and I haven't had much trouble with it. The last anal probe was indeed somewhat hard, but I mashed through it :p — Lyrion 2 hours ago

AviD

damn anal probes.

I might just pretend to be sick and go someplace else

@kalina A good morning to you too.

Rory Alsop

are these people drowning?

or waving...

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop Since it's coming from @kalina, probably both.

kalina

...it's "wooohooo" arms in air

Terry Chia

\o/

I guess that would be drowning?

Rory Alsop

very good

AviD

10:36

~\o/~

that would be better, I think

Terry Chia

@AviD That's 2nd stage probably.

AviD

well, yours look like hes jumping in.

FEichinger

@TerryChia Nah, drowning isn't her style.

Rory Alsop

10:49

@FEichinger :-)

kalina

right, time to raise 100 flags on Infosec

Terry Chia

@RоryMcCune @Adnan I decided to use GitHub pages for my blog after all. Thanks for the suggestion!

Rоry McCune

@TerryChia coolio, I started one to try out octopress, here raesene.github.io

after a little hiccup with git versioning, seemed to be easy enough to do

Terry Chia

11:22

@RоryMcCune A custom domain is next. ;)

Rory Alsop

@TerryChia maybe this summer I'll get time to sort out proper web code. Till then - well, I have a domain :-)

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop Time to start learning node.js? :)

Rory Alsop

@TerryChia .....

maybe not :-)

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop Hey, you are starting to sound like @kalina!

Rory Alsop

ahh - the ellipsis?

kalina

11:27

@TerryChia no

Rоry McCune

@TerryChia ouch harsh insult bro

kalina

@RoryAlsop ellipsis is three dots

@RоryMcCune ...

Rory Alsop

I did 5 dots

kalina

two mistakes more like

definitely time for breakfast

Terry Chia

@kalina He's old. He might have problems with math.

Rory Alsop

@TerryChia this isn't maths - it's arithmetic

kalina

I wish I could have some of the drugs you guys are on

Terry Chia

@RоryMcCune You know what I find funny? A guy twice my age calling me "bro". ;) #onlyinthedmz

Rоry McCune

@TerryChia what.. me and @RoryAlsop are down with the kidz........ yo

:op

@TerryChia anyway my excuse is that I've been watching PewDiePie videos

Terry Chia

It's sad that I found three sites that doesn't invalidate session cookies upon logout. Too bad I won't get bounties for them because someone else reported it first.

FEichinger

11:31

@RоryMcCune This is a very valid excuse.

@RоryMcCune is that like little honey boo boo?

kalina

no power in the 'verse can stop me!

Rоry McCune

11:36

@AviD no 'cause PewDiePie is good and I've never seen honey boo boo but I understand that she's the antithesis of good

kalina

so is your mother

AviD

@RоryMcCune never heard of it.

Rory Alsop

Pew Die Pie???

older people use crack?

Rory Alsop

@TerryChia I wouldn't even know how to make it

Q: Should professors intervene if a student is wearing offensive clothing in their classroom?

A question about university dress codes reminded me of an incident that happened when I was an undergrad, in which a classmate came to school wearing a really offensive and misogynistic t-shirt. I was extremely uncomfortable, especially since this was an engineering program and I was one of only...

professors harassment

Rory Alsop

@TerryChia do it!

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop That would mean linking my account to the site. Nvm.

AviD

@RоryMcCune still never heard of it.

Rоry McCune

12:04

@AviD well you could start with his 7 part walkthrough of South Park : Stick... Of... Truth

which looks in seriously bad taste, but then it's south park

@AviD the dude has 24 million subscribers, he must be mega-minted

3.7 billion video views

Rory Alsop

wow - how on earth have I not heard of him before

Rоry McCune

at a conservative estimate that'd be $18 million

@RoryAlsop I only really heard of him through the fine bros

it's got to be the most changeable weather ever here today. 30 mins ago we had brilliant sunshine, and now we have a hailstorm!

Rory Alsop

12:58

Yup currently gorgeous sunshine and hail. Simultaneously.

Terry Chia

13:20

@Adnan Did you write about that cipher suite selection research you did in any of your answers by any chance?

AviD

13:42

@RоryMcCune sure. Because followers on youtube translate directly to cash in the bank.

aaaaaand its gone.

@RоryMcCune and here, Summer has officially started.

Dammit.

@Rory's, stay away, lest you melt.

@RoryAlsop Go home weather, you're drunk... or Scottish... or, given the circumstances, probably both

Terry Chia

@ColinCassidy Like there's a difference? Aren't they synonyms?

AviD

Proper subset.

Terry Chia

@AviD Sure it does. The big names earn huge on YT.

Rоry McCune

14:03

@AviD it kind of does. Big youtubers are part of the monetization programme. You get paid based on likes or views. the figure I put up was based on $5/1000 views which came from a machinma partner who got paid that. PewDiePie probably gets a better rate

AviD

huh? Dont they get paid only based on ad clicks?

after all, thats where YT makes their money....

Terry Chia

@AviD Big names only like @RоryMcCune said.

AviD

ahh, special deals for them? At what point does that happen?

Cuz, I've got like over 60 views, so any day now, right?

Terry Chia

@AviD I don't think there's public information about it.

Rоry McCune

@AviD you can submit a channel to ask to get in but they don't accept everyone I've seen channels getting solidly 5-10k views a video not get accepted

Terry Chia

14:08

@RоryMcCune 10k views per video is pretty damn low when talking about the big leagues though.

Rоry McCune

definitely the first rule of monetization is that you're not allowed to talk about monetization

Terry Chia

A random guy emailed me asking about crypto advice. Weird.

Wonder how he got my email, although it isn't exactly private information.

AviD

14:43

@TerryChia How is a guy "random"?? And, if he already has managed to achieve randomness, why would he still need advice?

AviD

@MrHen I finally got around to answering that question about me....

As the author of that example, and as one who has no recollection of the incident whatsoever, I will admit that I am amused by this. I did find the answers here enlightening, but @IconDaemon was closest: Trollpoking, or poking the troll, is along the lines of "Don't feed the troll", but with ...

also, you gotta put it on Urban Dict now

actually, that'd be an awesome addition to your answer, first submit a new definition, then quote it in your answer: According to Urban Dictionary ... :)

@AviD this question does not ask about tiggers

Rоry McCune

@Simon yep you're so Nurdy , it can't be contained in the form of a single Nurd

Simon

@AviD See, you make absolutely no sense that a bunch of people need to brainstorm to figure out what the fuck you mean.

Rоry McCune

@kalina true but surely it's especially significant on a Friday

@kalina I need today to be over too. I'm going to a Hard dance event tomorrow.

kalina

well, maybe

nothing really happens on a Friday that couldn't happen on some other day

CodesInChaos

It's pretty hard to get me into the "somebody is wrong on the internet mode"

@CodesInChaos no it's not

but CSPRNG vs. TRNG does the job

kalina

no? Not biting?

you're right, it's harder than most people to get you into "somebody is wrong on the internet" mode

do what?

I don't know

I do it every day I desperately don't want to be at work

Simon

@ton.yeung I feel like we have to explain everything to you like if you were a child.

kalina

@ton.yeung it's already heavily delayed

Simon

@ton.yeung At life in general.

kalina

that means it will either be awesome or terrible

Simon

@ton.yeung It's ok, me too.

kalina

they were going to release it around the time GTA5 came out

and then realised that nobody would buy it if they did

so would I

unfortunately, we're not everybody else

Simon

@RoryAlsop I stopped being a pussy and got tattoo'd last Wednesday.

kalina

@Simon eww

Simon

16:08

@kalina You think that tattoos are ugly?

kalina

yes

Simon

You must find that a lot of people are ugly then.

kalina

yes

Rоry McCune

@kalina tut tut I wouldn't let the elder @rory hear that...

"elder rory" narrows it down to like every rory on stack exchange

Rоry McCune

@kalina not if I say it, then there's only one :)

as the 2nd oldest rory here, there's only one elder :)

Except when I'm outside because CANADUH

@kalina I thought you'd finally love me if I'd get a rainbow dash tattoo...

kalina

even *I* wouldn't get a rainbow dash tattoo

Simon

16:12

haha

FEichinger

@kalina If I say "thank god" now, will you get one just out of spite?

kalina

I don't need a cutie mark tattoo'ing on my ass

Simon

that'd be a very childish tattoo imo

kalina

@FEichinger totally

I'll get myself tattoo'd blue while I'm at it

Simon

blue da dog?

or blue the crystal meth from BB

kalina

16:14

no blue as in the colour

FEichinger

@kalina Intriguing.

Simon

The word blue colored in red?

FEichinger

@kalina Also very intriguing, on that note.

kalina

sets fire to @FEichinger

stop thinking about my ass.

Yet another SQLi in the very latest Joomla Core.

> Inadequate escaping leads to SQL injection vulnerability.

WHY THE FUQ DO THEY RELY ON ESCAPING?

Is this 1997?

CodesInChaos

ah joomla. Had a great episode about them on stackoverflow.

tylerl

@CodesInChaos linky?

CodesInChaos

Somebody posted a horrible password hashing implementation. Which then turned out to be from joomla.

I think they also used a crap PRNG to generate passwords and security tokens

But apparently this was only 1.5.x, which nobody gave a damn about anymore (except those using it)

so I don't think they ever responded on their bug tracker

Rory Alsop

17:10

@Simon any pics - what did you get?

@kalina I don't have that many tattoos

Although I did see a girl at an event last night who had lovely long arms with NO tattoos at all. She stood out quite well, I thought

@kalina I have a friend who did get one of the MLP's tattooed on her hip. Can't remember which one it was (I'm not very au fait with them)

kiBytes

sup?

tylerl

@RoryAlsop Thats.... well.. I guess it's no more stupid than getting a butterfly just above the buttcrack that was all the rage 10 years ago.

Rory Alsop

@tylerl my personal opinion on it is probably the same as yours, but she seems to like it. And I'm sure she thinks some of my tattoos are daft. Each to their own.

tylerl

@RoryAlsop "daft" and "tattoo" are practically synonymous. It's difficult to come up with any idea for a tattoo that isn't fundamentally silly when you look at it objectively. I don't thing reason is the point.

Rory Alsop

@tylerl :-) agreed. I like mine, but then I also rather like the process of being tattooed.

Rory Alsop

17:29

@ton.yeung doesn't hurt. Well, not yet. It's more like a really pleasant scratching

nearly fell asleep during my back piece

tylerl

@ton.yeung you mean like tattooing your MLP cutie mark on your butt? Yep. Perfectly reasonable.

CodesInChaos

The forehead is a better choice

tylerl

@ton.yeung my little pony. That's @kalina's suggestion from way back

Rory Alsop

@ton.yeung nah - look after it for a day, then business as usual

what does it mean

tylerl

@RoryAlsop translate.google.com/#auto/en/%E5%BF%83

Rory Alsop

17:34

back of the neck can be a deal breaker when interviewing for a job

never go for any obvious spots

unless you are a musician, tattooist etc

Oh - favourite SE Dev tool ever:

tylerl

Many jobs require tattoos be covered. So picking a spot that's typically covered anyway adds a degree of convenience in that regard

Rory Alsop

Stack Exchange have this power!!! :-)

@kalina - I think I've found your new favourite job ...

@ton.yeung think I've persuaded my Mother in law. She is sixty something

at that age, why worry

heh

FEichinger

@ton.yeung That depends on what "persuaded" entails.

Rory Alsop

@FEichinger ewwww

@ton.yeung a bit of fun

FEichinger

@RoryAlsop I DID NOT MEAN THAT.

Rory Alsop

17:40

TWSS

FEichinger

Rory Alsop

@FEichinger @kalina?

FEichinger

@RoryAlsop I know, I was about to say "Yeh, she definitely said that. On multiple occasions."

Rory Alsop

hahahahahaha

FEichinger

But I settled for that instead.

Or you get a Rainbow Dash tattoo to eliminate all such ideas.

Nobody will get that impression anymore with a colourful pony on your cheek.

Rоry McCune

17:50

@RoryAlsop I can never see MLP as an acronym without thinking More London Place

Rory Alsop

@RоryMcCune true. But that would be a weird tattoo

Rоry McCune

@RoryAlsop what getting Jan tattood on your back?

Rory Alsop

@RоryMcCune Oh - that would be relatively normal by comparison. I have just googled for tattoos incorporating MLP or the Mayor's thing, to no avail - but I have seen a lot of disturbing tattoos in the process

Rоry McCune

@RoryAlsop well yeah searching for "Mayor's ball tattoo" could result in oddness
