Serg

yay, myspace got haxed

Notice of Data Breach
You may have heard reports recently about a security incident involving Myspace. We would like to make sure you have the facts about what happened, what information was involved and the steps we are taking to protect your information.

What Happened?
Shortly before the Memorial Day weekend, we became aware that stolen Myspace user login data was being made available in an online hacker forum. The data stolen included user login data from a portion of accounts that were created prior to June 11, 2013 on the old Myspace platform.

Zacharee1

oh no

my accounts I don't have with them

Serg

@Zacharee1 These Q&A's just become physically painful to watch after a while.

Zacharee1

of course this is one of the answerers askubuntu.com/users/307523/wineunuuchs2unix

@chaskes agreed

Nathan Osman

Why is kvm slower than qemu-system-i386?

warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.vmx [bit 5]

Ah.

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman because computers

how do you not realize that by now?

Serg

i have found some kind of interview confirmation email for vector, and i have no recollection of ever applying there

OOOOOOhhhh

i remember, those guys

Zacharee1

lol

so you had a job opportunity, but lost it because you ignore your email?

@NathanOsman I like how you said this right after askubuntu.com/questions/816039/kvm-high-cpu-host-crash

Serg

1:56 AM

No, those were " Work for Students " guys, basically telemarketers. Call people phones and sell shiz

@Zacharee1 It's not that far from you. Rehoboth Beach.

Zacharee1

Why are you in DE?

Serg

Zacharee1

@Serg unless you have AMOLED

Serg

Zacharee1

"Yuge" battery saver

chaskes

2:03 AM

Nathan Osman

Alright, time for some fun.

Serg

chaskes

@Serg Thx, it was the best one I got.

Zacharee1

@NathanOsman BAN TIME?

chaskes

@NathanOsman Did you see the pic I posted?

Nathan Osman

2:05 AM

@chaskes Yes, it's very nice.

chaskes

@NathanOsman It's about 3 hrs from where I live, though. Still, I have to admit from seeing so many of your pics, after I took it I thought, Well, maybe this one can compete with the Pacific Northwest. :)

Nathan Osman

For sure - you have an excellent shot there.

CodeX

with android app and chrome apps only available on Chrome OS and not chrome browser..looks like Google wants everyone to switch to chrome os

chaskes

thx :)

Serg

can dragonflies be poisonous or dangerous in any way?

Nathan Osman

2:08 AM

@CodeX No thank you.

@Serg Not that I know of.

They're pretty much harmless.

Zacharee1

@Serg THEYLL EAT YOU ALIVEEE

Serg

my cat just caught one

Zacharee1

ALIIIIVEEE

@Serg nope, not poisonous AFAIK

Nathan Osman

Rolls eyes...

chaskes

Did the cat eat it alive?

Zacharee1

2:09 AM

probably taste gross

@chaskes fake irony

Serg

i don't know if i should kill it or let the cat play

Zacharee1

@Serg let the cat play

I don't think dragonflies have much sentience

dafuq askubuntu.com/questions/816047/kylin-ubuntu-in-tianhe-2

chaskes

I think he's right. I believe I read it does run kylin

Serg

CodeX

looks like normal ubuntu to me

Serg

2:13 AM

@CodeX it is sort of like normal Ubuntu , but it comes with software for chinese users

chaskes

it's got a chinese calendar, wps office, fcitx, and a few other changes.

CodeX

@Serg so no World's fastest supercomputer thing

chaskes

According to wikip, it runs Sunway RaiseOS 2.0.5. But it's based on LInux, and I'm still pretty sure I read that the linux it's based on is kylin.

Zacharee1

@chaskes Yeah, but it's better for Skeptics. I answered anyway

A: Kylin Ubuntu in Tianhe 2

Well, I don't think any of us are part of the 1,300-scientist team that made the computer, nor are we part of the Chinese government, but according to Softpedia, yes, Tianhe-2 runs Ubuntu Kylin. Honestly, this part of your question could be better asked on Skeptics. BUT PLEASE, PLEASE, read their...

chaskes

cool

CodeX

2:21 AM

"Canonical (Ubuntu's parent company) decided to work with the Chinese government " so maybe Kylin comes with a back door

Zacharee1

@CodeX probably would have been found by now

Serg

@Zacharee1 askubuntu.com/a/816051/295286

chaskes

@Serg I did not know Kylin Linux is not the same as Ubuntu Kylin.

Zacharee1

@Serg I saw. But that would mean that Softpedia is dead wrong.

chaskes

@Seth oreilly.com/ideas/…

Serg

2:28 AM

@Zacharee1 Softpedia is dead wrong . . .

Zacharee1

@Serg OK, so here's the thing I think. It's unclear if it runs Kylin or Ubuntu Kylin, but it does apparently run Ubuntu Server, Openstack and Juju unixmen.com/ubuntu-powers-worlds-fastest-computer

Serg

Check this one out

distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=leeenux

Leeenux

Zacharee1

@Serg I was wondering if it was for EEE PCs

then I went to the site, yep

chaskes

Now that looks very interesting. I could use a good netbook os

Zacharee1

@chaskes LEEENUX

chaskes

2:32 AM

I need to try it. It's not only for eee

Journeyman Geek

LEEEEEEEEEEEENUX

I think at some point the eee was the generic netbook.

Zacharee1

@JourneymanGeek I had one, hated it

very very very limited

I don't even know what it ran, but I think it had apt-get

chaskes

leeenux requires $9

Journeyman Geek

Lol. First gen tends to suck.

Zacharee1

@chaskes AYE MATEY

Journeyman Geek

2:35 AM

I think my friend has an Acer I upgraded to unr ....

And that was third/forth gen.

Zacharee1

EEE 900 series

Aren't EEE Asus?

Journeyman Geek

Atom or celery?

Zacharee1

901 it looks like so I guess Atom

wait, it might have been in the 1000 series

ihni

Serg

there is literally shiz ton of other words that are more relevant to spam, and our site is only concerned about According ?

WHAT THE ACTUAL F****

Aaand it wont let me save the edit now

Zacharee1

O_O

What's this for?

I've used according AFAIK

Serg

2:42 AM

@Seth @dino @terdon excuse me, WTF ^

Zacharee1

lol

@Serg's a spambot

@Serg put your edited version here

let's see if I can save it

Seth

@Serg I'd bet SE made some changes that accidentally went a bit overboard.

Not the first time it has happened.

Zacharee1

@Seth juuuust a tad

Serg

Should I take this to meta ?

Seth

You can.

Serg

Q: Please fix the spam detection

Today , I was editing a question and apparently there were some new changes in place for spam detection. Definitely good news . . . except that spam detection is broken: Out of all the words that there are for spam, the system latched onto "According" and "Wikipedia". IMHO it is overboard and...

Zacharee1

Should probably put it on Meta.se

There should at least be a rep cap though, if it stays

I think 30k is enough to be trusted :p

Journeyman Geek

Unless it's a really patient spammers

Zacharee1

@Serg is bot comfirm

Serg

@Zacharee1 added that into my post

Seth

3:04 AM

@Serg is it fixed yet?

Zacharee1

lol

@Seth can you edit those words in?

because if mods can't then something is wrong

Serg

@Seth nope, I just added According back into my post, and it showed the message agan

Seth

@Zacharee1 I'm on mobile :p

Zacharee1

@Seth Are we there yet??

Seth

Well if 'there' is the living room then yes.

hello

@KazWolfe Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately I got the ISO from the official Ubuntu website (ucmirror.cantabury.co.nz) and the hash is correct and there are no memory errors (MemTest).

Kaz Wolfe

Hi

Someone summoned me?

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

I summoned you

I recieved your answer

How do I do the thingy in windows? md5sum /path/to/the/ubuntu.iso

Kaz Wolfe

Just saying I've had a lot of bad USBs.

Some brand new out of the box.

MD5SUM has a Windows program equivalent

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

4:03 AM

ask mr google?

Kaz Wolfe

Yep

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

k

ah, i found it

one hash is incorrect

Serg

53 emails !!! I am down from 11k to 53

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

@KazWolfe it works now, you may now have the tick

Kaz Wolfe

So, it was the hash? Huh.

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

4:07 AM

Seems like it

Kaz Wolfe

Honestly was betting on a USB error

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

it was the correct hash but there was surprisingly +10 hashes extra

Kaz Wolfe

But, one more problem solved.

Wait what? Did you do the entire folder?

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

no the entire iso

Kaz Wolfe

Output please?

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

4:10 AM

I just closed it

But i remember

Kaz Wolfe

Never mind lol. Glad it works now though

Now everyone's happy

Kaz Wolfe

:D

Well if Jorge awards it. Really up to him

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

I owe him man

Kaz Wolfe

When you get to the 5k mark, put up a +200 on a random question

That's, what, one day of relatively hard work?

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

4:13 AM

lol

Kaz Wolfe

5k isn't that bad if you put in some decent work

Serg

5k is somewhat difficult for me, because i don't get 200 per day , and rarely it's easy

I am barely regaining the reputation i lost during the great purge this summer

Kaz Wolfe

Oh yeah, you were one of the decimated ones...

Did anybody bother explaining why?

Serg

@KazWolfe basically , it's kind of "not welcome" on the network to have serial voting for two people. Well, typically there's groups of users who answer the same questions or watch each other's posts. That kind of included me, Fabby, AB, netbox, kos, and a few others. So in the end we all got nuked. Oh, And Javob Vlijm . . .

So, our supreme mod ( whose name I won't name ) ran a script that found basically users who frequently voted for each other and just reversed their votes or accepted posts

Ha, vk totally switched to mimic facebook . . . .again . . . .

Kaz Wolfe

So you had an illegal voting ring.

Wtf

Serg

4:25 AM

According to how mods view it - yeah. My definition is "supporting users who produce quality answers"

Seth

no one flagging tonight? that's depressing

Kaz Wolfe

SETH <3

Hi!

ƎpᴉʇʎXD

time for psx fearful harmoney

Kaz Wolfe

@Serg So I'm happy I wasn't caught. Because I think I got in this voting ring by accident lol

Seth

Lets just say it was more complicated than that.

Kaz Wolfe

4:29 AM

Oh god. Wait, I thought only the system could see votes?

Seth

Some people have DB access (i.e., SE employees)

That should tell you, if they were looking at the DB, it was bad.

Kaz Wolfe

But why would SE be mad about cross voting? Doesn't their system catch the worst?

Seth

I'll get in trouble if I say any more. I refer you back to the meta posts.

Kaz Wolfe

So with this in mind, it was a network wide milking problem that caused them to purge everything? So legit votes like I guess the guys here were really more casualties.

Seth

Also: I saw one of those new Tesla Model Ses with the new grill. Pretty slick looking.

Kaz Wolfe

4:32 AM

Damnit Seth stop making me want to get in positions of power just for intel.

Seth

Power is an illusion.

Kaz Wolfe

But intel isnt

I don't think it matters where he discusses secrets. NDAs are pesky

Seth

pretty much that ^

tho there is no actual NDA, other than for PII.

Kaz Wolfe

So there is actual legal stuff for mods? TIL

Seth

@KazWolfe I guess?

Kaz Wolfe

4:37 AM

Huh. Still can't decide if I should try or not

Resolve ALL the flags!

Seth

YASSS. I WOULD USE THAT SO MUCH

Argh. Nobody is selling the T6 body separately. They only sell it with a 18-55mm lens.

Seth

T6 now?

Niceee.

Nathan Osman

Well... okay, so what happened is that I realized the T5 doesn't support shutter remotes.

(Well, it has a proprietary plug for wired ones, but that doesn't count.)

Serg

Sigh . . . over years i've followed 135 communities on vk . . . cleaning up all that now . . . .

Seth

@NathanOsman wait wut?!

are you sure?!

Nathan Osman

@Seth Positive. The only way is to get a wired remote.

@Serg I finally figured out how to quit vi! First you type ":sh", then you type "ps aux | grep vi", then you type "kill -9 PID" (where PID is the number from the last step), and voilà - vi is gone!
