@RоryMcCune any chance of upvoting these 3 answers? Testing to see how easy it is to get a certain hat... travel.stackexchange.com/questions/39940/schengen-visa-validity/…

or anyone else with a Travel.SE account...

Rоry McCune

@RoryAlsop done :)

Rory Alsop

@RоryMcCune fankyew sir

now we wait and see if it worked

If so, we may be able to do that here

M Zeinstra

I've answered my own question, but I still (after 4hours) don't have the selfie hat.. Does anyone know why?

Rory Alsop

@MZeinstra have you accepted the answer?

M Zeinstra

yes

Q: Libre Office Base; Opens reports in read-only

LibreOffice Base opens reports automatically in read-only mode. I've looked everywhere to find how to make sure it doesn't opens reports in read-only mode. Does anyone knows how to make sure that LibreOffice Base won't open reports in read-only mode? Thank you for your time!

A: How to force nmap to check all the ports?

You can pass in the -p- flag as specified in the nmap help page. For example, nmap -p- 192.168.1.1 Another option would be to pass in the explicit range you want with the -p flag. For example, nmap -p 1-65535 192.168.1.1

Can I get a +2?

They should have not published how to get them.

@TerryChia hat gaming sucks.

@MZeinstra If I could flag your question as too broad in chat, I would.

M Zeinstra

@raz sorry, I just was curious..

Terry Chia

@kalina Can I get upvotes from you? :) security.stackexchange.com/a/48513/10211

AviD

12:30

@raz "too broad"? its nonsensical.

"Whats your opinion about computers?"

doesnt mean anything.

Terry Chia

@AviD They suck.

AviD

@TerryChia I think you're using it wrong.

Arperum

What's with people asking weird questions in chat today and yesterday?

AviD

you're not supposed to shove that there.

Arperum

@TerryChia Nono, that's your mom.

@tylerl If our servers are still vulnerable to poodle attacks (which wouldn't surprise me, although I did inform them of it's existence and then poked them about it somewhat later), I sort of expect an equal reaction. However dumb it is.

@Arperum too broad.

@MZeinstra I think you might take us a bit too seriously in here

Rory Alsop

@AviD damn you Kropotkin! I'm now onto the Gay Men Will Marry Your Girlfriends! vid, and I can see more links to click!

Arperum

@raz Good thing we don't take ourselves serious then.

AviD

haha, just a couple more and you'll reach the end of the internet. Don't worry.

kalina

@TerryChia I have already upvoted this

Arperum

12:51

@AviD The end of the internet is a moving target.

AviD

like the universe?

Terry Chia

@kalina :( No one else wants to game hats with me.

kalina

@TerryChia I don't really want to leave for another year with everybody having the opinion that I merely turned up to cheat at hats

AviD

right, you are non-partisan. You're willing to cheat at other things too, not just the hats.

kalina

I'm not cheating at anything

AviD

12:54

thats what HE said!

Simon

@TerryChia You're a Simon.

kalina

there's a difference between the occasional solicited upvote and what we got up to last year

Terry Chia

@Simon You're a doughnut.

Simon

NO I AM NOT A SPELLING ERROR

Terry Chia

@kalina Meh, the gaming mods overreacted as usual.

Simon

12:57

Has anyone seen The Hobbit yet?

Rоry McCune

@Simon yep

in IMAX 3D no less

Simon

@RоryMcCune Not too disappointed?

Rоry McCune

@Simon not too disappointed. Effects were good, story was ok some of the stuff the chars got up to was a bit unbelievable, the missus really liked it but she's a great Tolkien fan

Terry Chia

@Simon Really can't get any worse than the first two.

@RоryMcCune I'd think a great Tolkien fan would dislike the movie a lot.

Simon

@RоryMcCune Ah ok, great.

@TerryChia You're so negative, you'd make a great couple with @kalina.

AviD

12:59

@TerryChia who else would bother watching it??

Rоry McCune

@TerryChia well she disliked the departures from canon (well some of it anyway) but some of the added stuff she was a fan of..

Terry Chia

@AviD "watching it" and "liking" it are two really different matters.

Simon

The only part I wanna complain about is the water scene filmed with a GoPro.

AviD

my point exactly

Simon

That was simply ridiculous.

kalina

13:00

@TerryChia wasn't just the gaming mods, a bunch of community people got involved as well

Terry Chia

I watched the first two and I will be watching the last but I don't really like it.

kalina

and then it dragged out through the election

just for additional shits and giggles

Terry Chia

@RоryMcCune I just think it's stupid they dragged it out into a trilogy. A single movie would have been nice.

Rоry McCune

@TerryChia yeah one or two at the most would've made sense

Terry Chia

And it's !@#$%^ stupid they added all that stupid shit with the female elve and reduced Beorn's role into basically a cameo.

kalina

13:01

@TerryChia well this is the case in many instances

like the Matrix

Simon

I've only watched the first Matrix. I should keep it that way, right?

Terry Chia

@kalina Yeah the gaming community has an irrational dislike of you.

I'd bet if it was anyone else no one would have cared.

Rоry McCune

@Simon I'd say yes but Monica Bellucci was in two...

kalina

and then once you've watched the second one, there is an awesome amount of CGI and action in the third that's worth seeing

but once you've seen it, you should forget the other two movies exist

user98085

@TerryChia You don't need to bet. There were people who did more recent and worse crap and did better than her.

Simon

13:08

@RоryMcCune Dayum.

If I say she's good-looking, is @kalina gonna shit on me?

Rоry McCune

@Simon that's a chance you'll have to take

Terry Chia

@Simon You have weird fetishes...

Simon

pls

Last time I said someone was good-looking and shit went all mad on me.

You donuts.

ManishEarth

Anyone know where I can get cheap domains? .com

Simon

@ManishEarth namecheap.com duh

raz

13:20

cheapdomains.com

@Simon Who cares, Bellucci is hot.

Simon

@raz pls, I keep that term for my lady donut.

raz

:facepalm:

Arperum

@TerryChia Ok, that is bad. I haven't seen the movies yet, but that is terrible.

Simon

@raz wot

AviD

@Simon you call your lady Bellucci?

Simon

13:25

@AviD NO

AviD

@Simon you have weird fetishes

Simon

@AviD Keep going and you'll become my dad.

raz

@TerryChia I could see splitting the book into two movies. There's definitely a split between qwerky adventures in the first half, and all the major shit in the second.

I haven't watched the movies yet, but I imagine I'm not going to like them that much.

@Simon You have fetishes about your Dad?

Terry Chia

@raz There really isn't any "major shit". The Hobbit is a kids book.

Simon

DONUTS DONUTS EVERYWHERE

ManishEarth

13:29

@Simon Anything that gives good offers for buying two domains for 3 years each?

Simon

@ManishEarth Oh dunno, never bought that many at once, soz.

raz

@TerryChia I mean major as in the important part of the story. I could see them splitting it when they get into the barrels down the river.

AviD

@ManishEarth I keep reading that as "donuts". "Cheap donuts", "good offers for donuts"... Only 2 donuts for 3 years confused me.

ManishEarth

@AviD it's a new diet

Simon

Donut diet? OM

NOM NOM

I almost answered a question last night but someone did it before me.

I cried until I was asleep.

raz

13:42

@Simon You've never answered a question?

AviD

@raz do you really expect him to answer that question?

raz

@AviD touche

Simon

Haha.

Cheers for the upvotes, whoever.

raz

@Simon Upvotes for what?

@Simon dammit ninja'd

AviD

@raz on the rare occassion that someone upvotes one of @Simon's posts, he publicly thanks everyone here. Every time.

It doesnt happen often.

Simon

LOL

I had to cover my mouth to not burst, once again. Thanks @AviD

AviD

@Simon you're welcome?

it helps to cover your mouth? I figured you'd just count sheep, or think of baseball.

No, it makes me look like a retard so I like it.

raz

And people wonder why the world is going to hell in a hand basket.

AviD

@raz that saying never made any sense to me.

who is carrying the basket? Why are we in it? and the size - it must be a huge basket!

is there fruit in the basket?

Simon

And why did the basket cross the road?

Terry Chia

@AviD You're a fruit so yes.

AviD

@Simon to get to hell....?

Arperum

14:01

@raz It's also perfectly valid Dutch with exactly the same meaning.

Simon

@AviD Who knows?

Knew it, I should have been Dutch.

It all makes sense now.

@Simon you sound Welsh.

@Iszi Dunno, I was too busy with passive-aggressive socialite trolls last night. I also didn't have the time to schedule a really nice ISRO's test launch and do the other things for our "Space Exploration activity center"... :D

Simon

14:29

Sometimes, I miss my ex-dad @Iszi but then I remember how he wouldn't play baseball with me.

Noordung

@Simon I'm sure he would if you'd be the baseball ;)

Rоry McCune

What can I do to protect against the vulnerability?

For consumers and small businesses, Check Point recommends adding ZoneAlarm firewall to your PC to significantly enhance your protection from attack. All ZoneAlarm products include a two-way firewall and a proprietary OSFirewall™ that blocks malicious activity on your computer and is hardened with self-protection to prevent it from being disabled by malware. For a limited time through December 26, to help consumers protect their PC from attack, we’re offering ZoneAlarm PRO Firewall for only $9.95 (regularly $40) through this link.

AviD

@Simon dammit, if baseball is a euphemism in this context, as I expect it is, that's really awful.

Simon

@Noordung Oh yeah, they used to call me Brad Pitt.

Rоry McCune

yay now vendors combine fancy Vuln names with "buy our product to fix the problem"

Simon

@AviD You donut.

Noordung

@Simon I thought he's like 5 feet and a donut tall

Simon

@Noordung imdb says 5'11", I'm 5'8"

CLOSE ENOUGH

right

IMDB says either what he says or how tall he seems to be after all the heels and pads

Rоry McCune

@Arperum from what I've seen their chat is that it's an old vuln. but they've done some research which indicates a lot of vulnerable systems... but yeah the "buy our firewall" really comes across as scare-mongering.

@Arperum pls be polite I feel very offended.

Rоry McCune

@Simon you're caffeined up today aren't you?

Arperum

@Simon If you have ten year old firmware that hasn't gotten a single update yet, you should

Simon

@RоryMcCune Yes but not more than usual.

Xander

@Simon Ehh, it's a cert question. I think it's probably fine.

Simon

15:00

@Xander It's about the configuration of a cert.

AviD

@Simon seriously? Dude, there is a line, and your line is made of thin ice.

Simon

@AviD REALLY?

Xander

@Simon It's about the properties of a cert.

Simon

REALLY?

@Xander You're properties.

AviD

@Simon and who would think thats an SO question???

Simon

15:01

@AviD SU or SF?

AviD

ooo it says code, it CAN'T be a security question

@Simon uhhh no?

Simon

And I triggered the cranky version of @AviD.

AviD

it is topical here, its just a product recc'.

Simon

@AviD Oh, I was talking about the cert one.

AviD

@Simon damn larynfrikkingitis.

Simon

15:02

I wrote product recommendation right after I linked it.

So go eat a donut.

Xander

@Simon Neither. It belongs here. If he was asking how to install the cert on multiple servers, you'd have a point. But he's not, and you don't.

AviD

@Simon that I agree.

@Xander we were talking about the code scanner q.

Xander

@AviD My head hurts. I'm going to go take a nap.

Simon

The way I read his question is he's asking if it's gonna work.

AviD

hahaha, there be chat flags, somebody wanted to remove his comments "so as not to clutter the chat".

Simon

15:05

Not if it's good practice or if it is a security concern.

AviD

> "you got clutter in my chat!"
"you got chat in my clutter!"

@Simon no, he's asking for the name of a product.

Simon

@AviD THE CERT ONE

hahahaha

Let's just stop thinking about that. I was wrong, now is everyone happy?

Xander

@Simon Sure, but it's a question of whether a cert actually supports it, and that's on topic. We get questions about the technical implementation details of certs, algorithms, smartcards, and all sorts of security-centric technologies all the time, and they're on topic, 'cause we're the folks who are supposed the be the experts in how these things work. That's all I'm sayin'.

AviD

@Xander see, that's what threw @Simon.

the part about how "we're the folks who are supposed the be the experts"

Simon

I'm gonna put snow on your pyramid if you keep going.

AviD

15:09

oh dammit, what in hell is that a euphemism for???? @Simon cmon, maaan!!!

@AviD You even named it Avidramid you creep.

that's gross

@RоryMcCune So people are claiming that software designed to bypass access controls, is giving unauthorized users access? SHOCKER
