The DMZ

TildalWave

00:00

Is it odd that I'd know this without Googling?

kalina

I hope somebody crashes into my car again

TildalWave

you hope?

kalina

Yep

TildalWave

why? you need new fenders?

David Freitag

Probably so she has an excuse to burn something

kalina

00:02

The last time the weather was bar somebody nearly killed it

It got repaired and it hasn't been the same since

TildalWave

totalled?

Simon

@kalina I hate it when the weather is bar.

kalina

Sigh

TildalWave

ah ... so basically you wanna cash in your car insurance for a new one

kalina

Also I'm pretty agitated and I think screaming at somebody with the genuine intention of breaking them is what I need

Simon

00:05

Fun & joy.

kalina

Yes

Followed by car shopping

TildalWave

I'd suggest an alternative solution but ...

kalina

Which is still shopping but with a misogynistic twist

TildalWave

misogynistic?

kalina

Well yes the alternative

TildalWave

00:07

nope not what I had in mind

David Freitag

Woohoo! Finally a successful build.

kalina

Yeah... Because car sales people treat women the same as men... Uhuh

David Freitag

Makefiles really are a mess sometimes :\

kalina

No the alternative would be to roll a joint and cancel this withdrawal

David Freitag

@kalina Sounds like you need to find a different car sales person.

kalina

00:08

What's the point

TildalWave

@kalina in my experience it's the other way around in car shops and men are the easy customers

kalina

They're pretty much all like it

Try being a woman and taking you car for a service

There's always something expensive wrong

TildalWave

@kalina that was kinda what I wanted to suggest :)

David Freitag

@kalina Sure, I just need a really sharp knife.

And perhaps some rags.

kalina

Doesn't have to be that sharp

Just get an erection and snap it

David Freitag

00:10

No, but there is preference

@kalina That would require leverage.

kalina

There is a tiny penis joke in there somewhere

David Freitag

That's what she said.

kalina

idid

@TildalWave but I'm going so well... Been like 10 days now

I do have stuff... I'm doing that will power thing

TildalWave

that's why I decided to rather not suggest it

if any here wanna see a live rocket launch ...

ulalaunch.com/webcast.aspx

(ULA Atlas V / 551 rocket deploying MUOS-3 communications satellite for U.S. Navy)

kalina

00:26

Only if it explodes

Braiam

@kalina the possibility exist, will you watch it?

kalina

No I can watch reruns after the explosion

Right now I'm going to try sleepy part 2 take 9

TildalWave

00:59

is anyone watching?

I didn't hear if they answered my question about cryo-ingestion limits

Q: DoS attack on normal Internet Protocol Address

So, I understand DoSing to an HTTP Server. I understand Layer 7 DoS attacks and how to even make these work. But what for an normal IP that isn't HTTP and is connected to the internet. Is the only way to attack them is by a bandwidth DDoS, which can be only done by more than 1 computer? Preten...

David Freitag

01:16

Yeah the same guy necro'd a year old post too.

A: How a DOS TCP packet different from normal Packet?

These days, alot of layer 7 DoS attacks, and notice I say DoS meaning 1 computer are used. So I'll give you an example, the beautiful slow loris incomplete GET request. You could connect to the HTTP server through TCP, and then send a incomplete HTTP GET request, causing the server to not timeou...

And somehow someone upboated it.

TildalWave

well that would work on poorly protected web servers

it's trivial to defend against tho, so perhaps not even

TildalWave

In case you can't fall asleep and wondered what else isn't new:

Earth clearly hasn't been inspected, since it's definitely contaminated with salmonella.

Iszi

08:04

Aww, XKCD... why so Ceres?

kalina

08:49

that's just poor, @Iszi, and you should be ashamed

apparently you have to do something for 10000 hours before you're a pro at it

Arperum

09:06

@kalina 10000 hours of actively doing it or just 1.1408 year of doing the thing during the day?

kalina

no, 10000 hours

it's like a full year without sleep + a few more hours

with that in mind, I'm only around the 4000 hour mark at music, and about the same with first person shooters

I am definitely better at the former than the latter

basically it's two years with sleep and doing nothing else = pro at whatever you're doing

Arperum

Sounds like you'd know quite a bit about your chosen subject after that time anyway.

Rоry McCune

09:31

@kalina it's a theory but I'm not sure it plays our in practice. IIRC there was a guy who was testing it with Golf playing.. (this could of course have been an excuse for him to play a lot of golf...)

@kalina thedanplan.com <-- dude doing the 10000 hours golf thing

kalina

well, said article says that eventually it ceases being working and is just fun

due to you enjoying working on it

so does that mean I get to go full circle? Because this started as fun and then started to feel like working

Journeyman Geek

10:01

@Iszi : boo.

kalina

10:12

my stomach is literally eating itself

brb, food required

Rory Alsop

@kalina yep :-)

@Iszi lovely!

kalina

actually, 4000 hours is probably a little low

no

nevermind

it's possibly a little high

I have ordered an expression pedal to go with my minitaur

I thought about getting two, since it has two CV inputs

but i'll go with one for now

January 2015, the month I spent significantly more than I earned

Rory Alsop

@kalina I had budgeted brilliantly...except for unforeseen cock-ups by HMRC

even my purchases of new drum kit, new guitar and new HOTAS joystick were in plan...

and now I'm just waiting for pay day :-(

kalina

I'm going to look back on this in the future and it shall be called "the great gearlust of 2015"

Rory Alsop

Pretty certain that's the title of a GWAR album

kalina

10:34

heh

but knobs and buttonssssssssssssssss

ntz ntz ntz ntz ntz ntz

Journeyman Geek

TWSS

kalina

I'm so bored of TWSS that I want somebody to write a script that puts people on ignore automagically

Rory Alsop

@kalina just use an internal script to make your eyes ignore it (unless it's funny)

Journeyman Geek

and eh. I'm planning on some gear acquisitions but most of the stuff I want isn't available here yet ;p

kalina

@RoryAlsop I do that but TWSS is starting turn into high pitch squealing type of background noize

Rory Alsop

10:42

@kalina turn the knob, sample it - instant top 40 hit :-)

kalina

actually I'm currently working on reproducing the original Dr Who theme

using digital equivalents of the original process

I'm certainly not sticking bits of tape together

Rory Alsop

@kalina are you familiar with the Pink Floyd version of it tagged onto the track One of These Days when they played live

quite nice process flow to create it

kalina

@RoryAlsop no

but I am familiar with the Orbital remake

Rory Alsop

worth a listen - it's only 20 seconds worth

nice bass delay

kalina

I remember why I smoke so much weed now

Rory Alsop

10:45

Pink Floyd?

or Orbital

kalina

no

the longer it is since I last got high, the harder it is to remain focused on any individual thing

I hope that as I break through this starts getting better

Rory Alsop

@kalina weird - seems counterintuitive

I would imagine it should

(but I'm coming at it from a fairly removed standpoint - my drugs of choice are caffeine and alohol)

kalina

I'm pretty weird anyway

I've noticed I'm starting to have problems typing, where I try and type faster than I can type

that doesn't usually happen

lots more spelling mistakes

I would take something like aderall

but why take what is basically a coke derivative to solve a problem I already had solved

STOP USING ADDERALL IMMEDIATELY IF:

> - penis erection that is painful or lasts 4 hours or longer (rare); or

Rory Alsop

is that a real warning on Adderall?

And I'm guessing Adderall is for folks with ADD?

kalina

yes and yes

Rory Alsop

10:54

wow.

DO they also market it as a Viagra substitute?

kalina

lol

week whatever week I'm on of not taking drugs: rapidly fluttering between happy and agitated, all day

there is a CC I should be able to sent to Kontakt that causes it to glitch and loop a subset of its current buffer indefinitely

but I can't find it

maybe it's manual manipulation of sample start position

dear NI, better CC documentation plix

I wonder how involved it would be to write a VST effects plugin

ok it's actually really easy to really complex

depending on how you approach it

if you use something like flowstone it's just drag and drop

I might buy that because that sounds like a couple of hours of additional procrastination

I have definitely done 10000 hours of procrastination in my life

kalina

11:13

huh, somehow I ended up reading a website about HIDs and I was finding it interesting until I realized I was reading the history of fucking trackballs

Rory Alsop

@kalina :-)

Rоry McCune

11:30

darn I can't fit that "tears of joy" post into my pinned starwall story.. wanted it to come after the "Men make @avid blush" line

Rory Alsop

11:43

@RоryMcCune did that help?

Rоry McCune

@RoryAlsop can you try pinning it

I did before so it won't let me do it again (who knew)

darn

Rory Alsop

so you can't reorder on a whim...

Arperum

@RоryMcCune Adding one star to the men make @avid blush line is not enough to push it up.

Arperum

@TerryChia Except the "s" part is not happening here :(

Arperum

Although there are some things slowly moving towards it.

grrrrr

kalina

12:47

ZOMG

YOU HAVE SKYPE CREDIT AND BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T USED IT FOR 180 DAYS WE ARE MAKING IT INACTIVE

but... I've been logged into Skype every day for that entire period of time

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?

Rory Alsop

@kalina bad central heating/aircon or flu?

Barry Carlyon

@kalina they keep saying that to me but I still have my credit…

kalina

@RoryAlsop I have no sniffles, I'm putting it down to withdrawel

@BarryCarlyon It's a cheap ploy, they've noticed that I've stopped spending loads on using Skype as my main phone line out and now they're bullying me once every 6 months until I drop below the threshold where it auto-credits the balance

Barry Carlyon

Indeed

BASTARD PLOYS

kalina

one text message at a time

right

I have done it

I have purchased a drone

Rory Alsop

13:00

@kalina which one?

Barry Carlyon

I for one welcome our new @kalina drone overlords

Simon

Always trying to follow deadmau5's path, I see.

Rory Alsop

@Simon I thought he liked Ferarris

Oh - just watched the crash video from that Hungarian idiot who crashed his Lamborghini at over 200mph

Simon

He has a P1, I think he's waiting for it to be made.

Rory Alsop

impressed they both lived

kalina

13:02

@RoryAlsop parrot bebop, so that when I fly it into a tree on its first flight I won't be smashing €1.5k of drone into a tree

@Simon seriously, so close to just ignoring you

Rory Alsop

@kalina heh heh - also buy a 20 quid indoor one - good for practice

kalina

@RoryAlsop the bebop is for practice

Simon

Ignoring me would create some action in your life, wouldn't it?

kalina

ignoring you would save me from the overwhelming agitated feeling you keep invoking

Simon

Damn.

kalina

13:03

which I know is probably not your fault but I don't care enough to tolerate it

Simon

I dreamed about @ThomasPornin, I think I'm kind of ashamed of it.

kalina

I wonder if I could create an outfit full of batteries, with like a docking clamp on the back that a drone could land on

I am going to change my artist name to princess procrastination

or The Procrastinator

I need your clothes, your boots, and your minimoog

Barry Carlyon

lol

That outfit sounds via tron like

With the disc on the back.

kalina

Kelly Maguire

SHOW ME THE BASSBIN

SHOW ME THE BASSSSSSSSSBINNNNNNNNNNNNNN

SHOOOOOOOOOW MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THE BASSSSSBIIIIIIIIIN

kalina

13:27

@RoryAlsop I'm not really into cars, I doubt I'll ever buy anything much nicer than a TI focus

Rory Alsop

@kalina it's down there. The big thing with the loud emanating from it.

kalina

might get an audi

certainly would never buy a ferrari

Rory Alsop

Oh yeah - I would never want to own a Lambo or a Ferrari - fun to drive on a track.once. but uncomfortable. no carrying capability. Only a tiny bit faster than my people carrier

Oh, and more expensive than my house

kalina

yeah

Rory Alsop

pointless

kalina

13:28

my car is more than capable of both killing me and breaking every road related law there is

why do I need one that will do it slightly faster?

Rory Alsop

@kalina as are they all these days, I reckon

A sporty one is probably safer - as it will have better tyres, brakes, cage etc

and being able to accelerate away from danger is nice

kalina

@RoryAlsop I don't know, I'm pretty sure a 1 litre corsa full of people would fail to get upto the required speeds

Rory Alsop

@kalina You'll get over 70 in one

70mph, not 70 people

unless you squish 'em real flat

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop I'm not sure it's a good idea to give @kalina ideas about squishing people real flat.

kalina

I'm pretty sure you could fit 70 people in one if you cut them up into small enough pieces

Terry Chia

13:30

See ^

Rory Alsop

;-P

kalina

I am not a serial killer in real life

only on the internet

Rory Alsop

I have found @Adnan - 3rd pic: theguardian.com/artanddesign/gallery/2015/jan/20/…

kalina

"hand model"

makes me think of Mulder in Zoolander

Ohnana

those aren't even attractive hands

also they all look like they just took a hit of acid

kalina

13:43

have you ever seen somebody after they've ingested a hallucinogenic?

Terry Chia

This picture is full of win.

Simon

Why isn't the greatest language of all time in that list?

kalina

@Simon C is on there

Ohnana

@kalina no but to my sheltered mind that's what it looked like

either that or they're in a lana del rey music video

kalina

@TerryChia I don't get the HTML joke

please explain it to me before making fun of me

Terry Chia

13:54

@kalina I think it's because HTML isn't a programming language.

Simon

Terry doesn't know HTML.

kalina

neither is LaTeX or Unix Shell

Simon

Still, the UNIX one is probably the funniest.

Terry Chia

@kalina TeX is a turing-complete language actually.

So is bash.

But I dunno, maybe someone else has another interpretation.

kalina

LaTeX is a display/formatting language

since the image isn't talking about TeX, I'm just going to ignore your attempt to justify otherwise

ok how about this

the image is about writing an essay on a programming language

no, nevermind

it worked out fine in my head and the words look wrong

Ohnana

14:00

k

Simon

k

Barry Carlyon

Terry Chia

@kalina Maybe the essay was about a flower pot?

kalina

and thus HTML is the best?

due to its simplicity making it easy for anybody to read the essay

geeksaresexy.net/2015/01/08/…

totally going to buy a pair

presuming they come in baby sizes that will fit

Simon

Women and their shopping spree.

kalina

14:05

this isn't part of the spree

besides, I haven't purchased a single stereotypical women-in-shopping-spree item during my entire spree

kalina

14:17

yes, this is a productive use of my afternoon

reading up how to make a hoverboard

Simon

"I will make a game!"

2 days later:

"Oh, that's how you make a hoverboard!"

Your dedication amazes me.

Ohnana

rather have the hoverboard

then again I'm really bad at anything involving boards

kalina

@Simon I do not try to hide how unable I am to focus on a single thing

this is why I have so much RAM - so I can leave everything open and flick between them

Simon

You must have at least 64 GB.

kalina

currently I have cubase, visual studio, unity, mono develop, audacity, 7 chrome windows each with 15+ tabs, steam, and a game called mini metro open

Simon

14:29

#window

Ohnana

my laptop would be choking after audacity

kalina

and cubase has a nearly finished track in it, full of vsts and effects

and audacity has four files currently open

and unity has my prototype open

and one of those chrome windows is full of youtube videos

visual studio has a UI I was playing around with before I last got bored, i think that's been open since before holidaymas

Simon

Is your house a mess?

kalina

no, my house is very minimalist until you get to the room with my studio pc in it

and then it's a mountain of wires with a PC in the middle of it

just like pretty much any other PC that gets used

Simon

You're a mountain.

Rоry McCune

14:35

Inb4 @simon is on fire

kalina

oh I put him on ignore

I did warn him

maybe I should just... not quit drugs

Simon

Women's ability to lie always amaze me.

Damn it, I wanted to create a massive rage with this comment but she somehow managed to not do so.

Rоry McCune

14:50

@kalina nah I'd stick to that if I was you :)

kalina

I can't even say that it has no negative effects since that doesn't correlate with my current feelings

I was smoking 2 ounces a month, though...

Rory Alsop

@kalina I can happily run that amount - but when I'm rendering from cubase I close everything else. Just in case.

kalina

@RoryAlsop yeah I'm only using 7.2GB out of 16

Rory Alsop

@kalina is that a lot? (honestly don't know)

kalina

@RoryAlsop like €500/month

200 long papers

I was basically at the point where I was immune to the effects

it was most noticed when I got together with my friends over christmas/new years

when me smoking at normal speed was putting the rest of the into a vegetative state

Rory Alsop

14:58

Cost option - doesn't seem worth it :-)

Ohnana

@kalina holy balls

kalina

@RoryAlsop cost is not really something that I think about anymore

feeling that my insides are commiting suicide one by one is a good enough reason to keep me away for now

Rory Alsop

@kalina ^ this

kalina

tell you one thing though

this is quite easy in comparison to quitting coke

Rory Alsop

@kalina yeah - caffeine-withdrawal headaches are supposed to be harsh

;-P

kalina

15:08

heh

it was far worse than that

my brain reclassified everybody who withheld what I needed from me as an enemy

this feels like a bad cold, a headache, and like I did kickboxing and forgot to block once during the entire session

Rory Alsop

@kalina woah

kalina

which is significantly better than trying to draw blood out of the faces of your friends when they're bringing you food

Rory Alsop

@kalina this really sounds a lot less fun than I thought it was supposed to be

kalina

the harder the drug, the harder to quit

also, quantity and frequency is key

daily use and a lot of of something particularly nasty will be a proper pain to get off

I always figured weed was not one of those things that would have any real side effects upon quitting

Rory Alsop

TIL - kalina's comments could be an excellent way to teach kids not to do drugs :-)

Ohnana

15:21

yeah

Simon

yeah

Rory Alsop

yeah

Ohnana

i don't do well with altered states of consciousness to begin with, but damn son

kalina

@RoryAlsop nope

my advice on drugs is form your own opinions based on personal experience

which means, TRY ALL THE THINGS

except the upper echelons like meth and crack

crack is like coke except you get the buzz all at once

usually with a brief panic attack as your heart rate beats fast enoguh that you can't tell the individual beats anymore

and meth is nasty

that's like having sex with somebody you know is a walking petri dish of stds

lol heroin

yes, take drugs that make you puke before you feel the buzz

pcp for life

because depending on your personality it could be the last thing you do before you jump out of the way of a train that wasn't really there, into on coming traffic

and now after that crash course, a practical test

you know that feeling of "wow I'm so happy" you get after eating food?

ecstasy is that feeling without eating food, caused by the release of the same hormones

the feeling of "yes I love life" after sex?

Ohnana

15:37

@kalina i thought that's part of an eating disorder

kalina

cocaine is that feeling without sex, caused by the release of the same hormones

Simon

You know that feeling of "I feel so much like shit today"? That's the down.

kalina

well the down depends on a lot of factors

Simon

So, I wasn't on ignore.

kalina

a lot of what people associate with coming down is actually the same issue experienced from drinking - dehydration

@Simon no I removed you from ignore afte ran hour

Simon

15:39

What's an "afte ran hour"?

I don't know German, I'm not FE.

kalina

and then he's back on ignore

that's incredible

Simon

Hahahaha.

TildalWave

@Simon translate: afte ran hour

(from English) afte ran hour

there

Simon

Oh, cheers.

Rory Alsop

15:55

@kalina this begs the question - why use drugs, when sex exists

(I know, not a real question)

but for me, none of your descriptions make me want them in any way :-)

@RoryAlsop you know what I mean :P the guy obviously hasn't a clue what all "pentesting" involves

Simon

Did you guys hear about Simon's rule of AviD's rule of usability? It simply stipulates that @AviD sucks.
