Ask Ubuntu General Room

@onebree So around 2012 I knew Rity, we broke up, after that I was pursuing Sherry for like 4 years who basically kept me around because i was doing all her hw and taking her shopping , and in the end she married a different guy. Excuse ? I am not chinese AND i have poor character (because we argue a lot). For the last like 6 month, i was chatting online with Jane, but once I've met Dorothy in China, I broke up with Jane immediately

Zacharee1

12:01 AM

@Tim you mean statses?

Tim

nope, stats not "stat" :P

Serg

The break up with Jane is also a long story , but i'll skip it

Tim

@Zacharee1 Study leave ends Tuesday this week. Last exam is 21st. Summer is 20th July till 5th september. Then we have 1 week off over haloween, 2 weeks at christmas, 1 week in febuary, 2 weeks at easter and then 1 week in may

Zacharee1

Zacharee1

@Videonauth I still think you should move to another country

Wild Man

my wife and I just just celebrated 35 years together and I am only 51

Zacharee1

@WildMan whoa

Serg

12:06 AM

@Videonauth being a hermit sometimes has its advantages . . . you don't have to deal with sharing bathrooms or food or fighting over chores

Videonauth

@Serg still it sucks being alone

im not a single by own choice

Wild Man

she was my first girl friend and my last

Zacharee1

@WildMan was?

Wild Man

was my first and is my last, she is still alive

Zacharee1

Serg

@Videonauth it sure sucks , i had been single for quite a while. And the break up with my first love hit me really hard. Like , I don't know how many litters of salty water have been shed from the eyeballs over the months that followed it. And it also sucks , where the person you like basically gives pathetic excuse for not even considering you as a boyfriend

the favicon?

oh the favicon

sigh

yeah thats animated

12:10 AM

OK, now I have a very very serious question . . . .Does anyone have a good eggplant recipe ?

Zacharee1

@Tim it's an IP phone; it's evil

Videonauth

@Serg well do you have your email set up properly with your gpg key ?

Zacharee1

@onebree Tokelau. It's in New Zealand

Tim

it's a free domain service

also .cf, .ga and .ml

Serg

12:12 AM

@Videonauth yes, everything seems to be set up properly

Anonymous

@Serg I will ask my mom about the recipe she made my dad twice already this month. He loves it. It's eggplant rolitini, where the pasta is replaced with eggplant. And my mom makes the sauce herself (in the recipe)

Zacharee1

@Tim I hate freenom

Tim

Freenom is evil

Zacharee1

@onebree I might even eat it, and I hate eggplant

Tim

I have to connect by Tor to hide my IP

I will share it to you all tomorrow or so :-)

I hate them because the interface is horrible

Tim

unfortunately it didn't have name servers

Serg

@Videonauth Do you mean setting it up from within the email settings so that it automatically encrypts everything ?

Tim

12:14 AM

@Zacharee1 I left a site offline and they decided to ban my account essentially

@Tim do you understand why you can register a TK domain for 12 months for free, but one year is $9.95?

pro account?

Tim

i think you get extra features dont you?

maybe like whois privacy etc?

Zacharee1

dunno

Serg

12:16 AM

@Videonauth nah, i use chinese email, they don't have an option for encryption i think. There's an option for signature though. Could I place something there ?

Tim

no whois privacy comes with it for free

Zacharee1

@ThomasW. were you arrested for running Nessus?

Serg

Oooo, nessus can use hydra for dictionary attacks

@Zacharee1 Nope, busy with a few things

including helping my dad with his email account which may have been hacked

Zacharee1

@ThomasW. Even if it was behind the login?

@ThomasW. It was the IP PHONE!

(kidding of course)

Thomas W.

heh

if it was you'd be doomed

i keep a team of lawyers for reasons ;)

Zacharee1

If you look at that login page, you won't see any files

@ThomasW. oh

@ThomasW. wasn't mE! :p

Thomas W.

:P

Zacharee1

so what do you think about the safety of an iframe set behind the login page of the PufferPanel site?

Thomas W.

12:28 AM

you'd need to change the headers served by it to rule out some XSS risks

but maybe?

if you restrict IP access to the pufferpanel login to ones you know of that restricts even further and helps

Zacharee1

How would it be vulnerable if it was behind the login? I can't see any of the website files from a dev console

Serg

@Videonauth well, email read but will need to figure out how to use the thingy, so will take me some time to reply :)

Videonauth

Seth

@Tim are you asking to be flung back to the nineties? I know a guy.

Serg

@Seth for 3 weeks that i was there ( and keep in mind that China has air pollution problems ) I had no issues, had no need for tissues , nothing. And I am about a week back in the Denver, and i am already finishing second roll of paper towels

Seth

@Serg paper towels?! on your nose?! Ouch!

Tim

:P

Seth

@Serg Have you considered other places in the US that might not give you these issues?

Serg

12:54 AM

regular tissues are too small for me and break down faster

Seth

I dunno your situation but that sounds less straining.

chaskes

I'm with Serg. With big allergies, paper towels are the only thing strong enough

Seth

I guess my allergies aren't big then xD

Wild Man

paper towels here too

chaskes

If you don't need paper towels, then... no. ;)

Seth

12:55 AM

@Tim really though, no one reads things. Adding more stuff to read won't change much...

Q: Usability issues for first-time Stack Exchange users - a micro-study

I come from lands afar, also known as Hardware Recommendations Stack Exchange. Over there, we have a serious problem with first-time Stack Exchange users coming along and asking off-topic questions - to the extent that 50% of incoming questions are closed. We've had a few attempts at solving this...

@Serg well it might be worth considering before you move out of the country, especially to a place like china.

and also logged into all computers with his own account

@Tim no idea, but he didn't get far - got caught

SQuirel

You know how guys on DefCon say ? "The first rule of OpSec is don't funk it up" . Using your own account for doing mischief is a sure way to funk it up

So 1 bitcoin is 654.59 USD ?

Choco Taco

Choco Taco is a brand of dessert food resembling a taco, consisting of a disk of waffle cone material folded to resemble a hard taco shell, reduced-fat vanilla ice cream, artificially flavored fudge, peanuts, and a milk chocolate coating. The product was invented in Philadelphia in the 1980s by Aaron Johnson, Senior Vice President of the Jack and Jill Ice Cream Company, but was first rolled out in 1984 when it became popular in mobile vending trucks and convenience stores. It made its first appearance in supermarkets nationwide by Good Humor-Breyers in Richmond, Virginia in 1996 as "America's coolest...

4:50 AM

I'm on Windows 10. What's the most lightweight and portable way I can virtualize the latest Ubuntu distro?

Nathan Osman

@Nick Probably Hyper-V if you have Win10 Pro.

It's integrated the best with the operating sytem, at least.

Nick

@NathanOsman Not Pro but I'll still check it out. Thanks.

Nathan Osman

You won't have Hyper-V if you don't have Win10 Pro.

In that case either VirtualBox or VMware (if you don't need it for commercial purposes) is your best bet.

Journeyman Geek

@Nick I use virtualbox

And hyper-v on desktop often breaks things.
