The Bridge

The only games I'd say I'm actually "good" at are League and WoW. And that's mainly because I've spent way too much time playing them...

@Jutschge I think I'm decent at hots but then again when I rank I'm only Silver... so... yeah...

3:19 PM

I can't play with controllers at all tbh... I was struggling with Uncharted :(

@StrixVaria It is a pretty scary languge.

@StrixVaria also sort of relevant. sort of

The language memes are real guys

Does german really sound that angry?

if you start yelling slightly it gets pretty angry pretty quick

If you start yelling everything gets angry though...

Hmmm touché

3:25 PM

Gnnnh 35 minutes...

Time to get (more) depressed

@Jutschge Nah, a Canadian accent makes yelling in English sound even more apologetic.

@fredley That's bad for multiple reasons...

@Arperum Yup, and all of them are awful

@Yuuki JUST BECAUSE I'M YELLING DOESN'T MEAN I'M SORRY

SORRY FOR YELLING THOUGH

3:28 PM

@Arperum Time to read up about funcitonalism vs intentionalism and get more depressed!

I might offend a lot of ppl in this room with this but... I really don't hear much of a difference between a Canadian and an American accent...

Most Canadians sound like Americans but we have our hillbilly Canadian accent

that's the "Canadian" accent

Hmm I guess I never heard that then...

"Hunt'n sum coo-gers, eh?"

Although pretty much every language has a hillbilly accent.

3:30 PM

that's how it would sound if I did it right

@Jutschge Canadians say 'aboot' and 'eh'

We get more HillBilly the more North you go

The cool thing about swiss-german. Everythign sounds like a hillbilly accent.

"It's aboot forty clicks that way, eh?"

I can do a pretty good "Canadian" accent

3:31 PM

@Jutschge As a posh brit, I have to disagree, innit.

I also think it's caused by prolonged exposure to Maple Syrup fumes

Gotta love when someone cuts corners on the CHEAPEST part of the build.

Mhh... Maple Syrup. I gotta visit Canada some day.

@Yuuki is that... foam?

(Yes, that's someone using a piece of toilet paper instead of thermal paste)

3:34 PM

@Yuuki 10/10, would wipe again

@Yuuki what

How

Why

Most of me knows that it's a horrible idea to visit /r/trees at work but at the same time, this is a post about Spicer coming out against marijuana legalization and I know that subreddit was leaned slightly pro-Trump leading up to the election so I wanna see if I can get any schadenfraude from this.

@KevinvanderVelden You take a piece of toilet paper, and a pair of scissors or a sharp knife. You carefully cut out a square of toilet paper that's slightly bigger than the surface of the processor. You then place the piece of toilet paper on top of the processor. Lower the cooling fan into place carefully - you don't want the toilet paper to blow away! - then gently tighten the screws locking the toilet paper in place between the cooling fan and the processor.

@Yuuki 2560 comments on it

@Yuuki wat, why were they pro-Trump? Did they not see this happening?

3:38 PM

@fredley They weren't very pro-Trump, but they did lean slightly more towards him.

@fredley I don't remember the reasons.

Authoritarians gonna Aurthoritate

@fredley Only cut two sides, the other two you tear off.

> Dear God, so many arguments with those people that the nomination of Jeff Sessions literally put us at risk of dialing back so many of the advances we, especially legalized states, have made on this issue... All met with "Well no one I know in Colorado is worried" or "No Sessions has no power, Trump loves legalization." All on this sub too. Would love to hear more rationalizations from some of those people...

> And people didn't vote for Clinton because she only wanted to reschedule it and leave it up to the states.

Everyone knows that marijuana is a gateway drug to heroin [narrator] no it isn't

(states that have legalized are seeing reduced opioid overdoses, or something like that)

3:45 PM

@Unionhawk Same way as games are a gateway to school shootings.

Tbh the thing that bugs me most about weed is the annoying pothead culture... I'm perfectly fine with ppl smoking it in private but man those guys that brag about it all day long are pissing me off so bad.

@Jutschge I think if smoking weed was legal and "normal", it would be less of a deal to brag about

but, you know, there's that kind of people in every group

so close to weekend now :D

4:03 PM

Huh. Morgan Freeman owns stock in Tesla and finances a Tesla limo service, which will be bringing Hollywood stars to the Academy Awards ceremony.

4:14 PM

@Chippies I'm actually pretty pro legalization even though I dislike the stuff itself. I mean you can tax the crap out of it.

@Yuuki Smart business sense there.

Note to people reading news: The American College of Pediatricians is not a professional association, it is a socially conservative advocacy group. The actual professional association for pediatricians is the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Note that some headlines will call the American College "The American College of Pediatrics" either out of misinformation or perhaps an attempt to masquerade as the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Decided to actually look up who my representative is, and found this drawing of the shape of the district I live in:

@StrixVaria Man, wait 'til you see Salt Lake City.

I know there are worse ones, but I didn't realize mine was in on the action.

Utah doesn't look that bad.

@Yuuki :'D

Until you realize that the four districts quite cleanly cut Salt Lake City into four pieces, divvying up perhaps the only major city in Utah (and thus where Democrats/liberals tend to live).

@GnomeSlice What'd you think of Atlas Reactor?

GnomeSlice

@Sterno It's interesting, but every game I played I felt kind of unimportant

It's team based, and that wasn't 100% clear to me when I started playing

you only control one of the players on your team

and there's no real built in communication for teams

The gameplay is pretty neat though

It would probably be better with a prebuilt team

@Yuuki Almost all parsers use regular expressions for tokenizing. It also uses a state machine for actually parsing

An important thing to keep in mind is that most programming languages are not regular, but the language of (possible tokens within a programming language) often is regular

So it makes perfect sense to parse the latter with regular expressions, but not the former

Hmm which one do you have? My RMB doesn't work properly anymore on my G9x which I had for like 7 years now and now I'm looking for a replacement :/

I think I have something in the G700 series.

I have a G500

MBraedley

I have a G502 that I like

@Yuuki do the programmable buttons sometimes get in the way? I kinda like how the G9x is simple

ughhhh

I need a passport level picture uploaded on US embassy's site to apply for visa. But my photograph studio doesn't allow digital exports, only physical exports. Ugh. Going to have some fun time tomorrow chatting with the guy I guess.

I might need to scan my already printed photo... which needs a 300ppi scanner to be acceptable, apparently. ughhhh.

6:21 PM

@Avery When are you looking to go to the US?

@StrixVaria Very soon. No exact date yet as there might be delays on visa, but it seems like 21st of march.

@Avery Hope all goes well.

@Jutschge Not really?

There's only four on the side.

6:28 PM

@Avery You can do it! I believe in you!

tbh I should wait until my passport arrives (5 to 7 days), but apparently you can just halt your application and continue later, and will likely do that now.

This Cloudflare thing is probably bad, right?

I'm blaming @Arperum for brexit now

I'm pretty sure civil union doesn't mean "gay marriage" (or just that at least)

@Avery I thought that said the Turkish call marriage "evil"

but I realize the l and i are switched

That kind of person can totally rise to power.

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS SITE IS BROKEN

@Avery no, I think civil union is an artifact of the previous "we can't use the word marriage for Reasons so let's make up a different word" system in some states

Or I guess in some countries probably

Idk

@Sterno So... reset all my passwords?

6:41 PM

Yeah I'm doing a password reset session tonight

And those nudes you took on your phone are now out in the wild! sorry dude!

I'm sure it will provide you with useful insight

6:54 PM

That means it's mandatory.

yeah

hovering on it just says "required"

well

then they just want your required gender

easy peasy

I require to be a female, so that's what I'm going with, I guess.

@Unionhawk ugh now you're making me feel like I have to do one

Which I really don't want to do

Some amount of my passwords can be refreshed automagically with lastpass

7:02 PM

explain

I hit a button, and LastPass navigates to password change, generates a password, and fills it in

For a number of sites

ah I'm seeing this website

or this service really

It also keeps track of last changed date so I can figure out which ones I have left

you have a premium service but I require to give you my email to potentially see prices? No thank you

I'll stick with KeePass

lastpass is a good balance of security and convenience for me

i tried fooling around with local stuff but the sync between phones and multiple machines makes it worthwhile

7:07 PM

well and that's been my concern since I just started using it

Premium is... $12 USD annually

"what if I'm not at my computer"?

also screw all those games that have in game login screens that don't let me copy paste

@Unionhawk well I can't see that without giving them my email!

@Yuuki there is a special place in hell

7:09 PM

I will say making the switch to a password manager is super annoying

because I don't remember all the sites I have passwords to

i find more annoyance with the sites that lastpass doesn't work with

like looking at lastpasses site reminded me I have a dropbox

@GodEmperorDune It's right above the place where they put the people who substitute M&Ms with mint M&Ms.

I had totally forgetten

so i will use the "contact me" links and annoy them to fix their site

i'm moving physical addresses, and i went through lastpass to change all my physical addresses in all the sites

7:11 PM

but some poopy heads just need to be poopy and try to steal things

@Yuuki I kind of wish they gave a list of comprised sites but that also people who want that information

Because I really hate changing all my passwords

@BlueBarren Well, the list is just "websites that use Cloudflare" if I'm reading correctly.

7:30 PM

Yes

@Yuuki with a couple of minutes of effort I couldn't find a list of people who use cloudflare

Stack Exchange uses Cloudflare, IIRC.

Mad Scientist

@Yuuki which is a really large list

huh

Mad Scientist

not anymore, SE is not affected

7:31 PM

Clearly I need to upgrade to four factor authentication.

@MadScientist whew, good. I thought I was going to have to do some work

Phone, other phone, mom's phone, dad's phone.

Four factor!

@MadMAxJr that's not secure! You're giving security access to your mom and dad

what if they get brainwashed or they hate you?

That's what my two phones are for. It doesn't work unless we all click the button.

Me having two phones prevents evil me from accessing good me data.

But the fact you have two of the 4 factor auth is also flawed

because if you're comprised they gain two pieces of the puzzle

7:35 PM

That's what the gun in the lockbox is for.

My google login is VERY complicated. Check the emergency procedures manual under the desk.

so you can get robbed at gun point by your own firearm?

i-factor authentication is best authentication.

Only if someone completes the 2FA to open the lock box.

who has the phone for the 2FA for the lockbox? You again?

That's an unknown 3rd party.

7:37 PM

because if they bring their own gun they could compromise you

Now we're thinking ahead

Well crap, now you've made the case that guns defeat password security.

Buy a $300 safe. Get threatened with a $10 wrench to the face.

not unless all guns have passwords

Fine, in order to log in 2/3rds of the US senate has to validate the login via app or computer.

@Yuuki so then you lock yourself away behind a couple of factor authentication

@MadMAxJr what if the government is corrupt?

and get bribed?

7:39 PM

Just file the 'Reset your government' request form. It's right below the reset password form.

@MadMAxJr Special session of one Senator.

@MadMAxJr does that validate to an email or what?

Not sure, I'm waiting for the riots and gunfire in the streets to stop.

This is a very complicated way of getting into Gmail.

@MadMAxJr sounds like there's a long wait time on resetting the US government
