3:00 PM
@silverpenguin You suck.
 
@Simon what why what did i do :<
 
How can you hate sushi?
 
I dont like fish :(
 
I don't like fish either but I will gladly eat sushi.
 
i only eat land meat, potatoes, rice and cheese
and bread of course
need to poop
 
3:02 PM
.
 
@Simon its science simon! everyone poops
 
this. This is what I need to come back in to the room for? This??
 
@AviD rekt
 
@AviD you're implying that there is usually a higher standard...
 
It wasn't my fault again.
I'm behaving well these days.
 
3:03 PM
@RоryMcCune slightly. Scatalogical humour just aint funny.
 
missed you too @AviD <3
 
you know what else isn't funny?
elements of the set of things that are not funny
 
Meta.
 
@Simon meta usually IS funny
 
funy
 
3:08 PM
pony
 
sucks
 
3:25 PM
@AviD meta was funny. Jokes are offtopic now though :(
 
another CTF game this weekend who is in! WOOO ?
 
@silverpenguin Wanna listen to my favorite song ever?
 
What?
 
if its a youtube link
i might trust it
 
3:29 PM
Yes it is.
May this song become your anthem.
 
damn you suck
 
???????????
It'd be perfect if you'd blast it in your z3 with the roof off.
 
im at work and now its in my history xD knew i should have right clicked it for icognito mode
 
What's your IT department/boss gonna say about that?
 
just so you know, I have been blasting ballroom blitz
true 80s style
 
3:31 PM
"Erm @silverpenguin, we've noticed that you've been listening to this song called "It's ok to be gay" on repeat lately"
 
@silverpenguin s/80s/70s/
 
nothing i guess... my machine is not accessible by them AND AND i control the network
 
PS: I genuinely like the song.
It's catchy as hell.
 
@Simon no surprise there
 
pls roro what does that mean?
 
3:32 PM
I am the server developer... and the engineer, and the network admin and and and and
 
2 days ago, by Simon
@Ohnana ohnuhnuh when you get your ween, will you let me touch it?
 
@RоryMcCune ^_^
 
@silverpenguin You know, frankly, I find most a bit boring already. Sure, it's an excellent way to start practicing offensive security, RE, and generally trying to crush even tougher nuts than @Simon's, but most are much on the same tune and some even pretty unimaginative and repetitive
 
wot
 
@Simon we trolled the hell out of my high school administration with that song
 
3:33 PM
@Ohnana Oooooooh, please elaborate.
 
@RоryMcCune wtf why does this have stars AND META STARS.
WHY.
@Simon all-girls catholic high school. played it at lunch, and requested it at dances
 
@Ohnana no idea, I was just pointing out the obvious about some of Simon's starred statements...
 
@Ohnana Oh my hahahaha.
 
@Ohnana People here like dicks it seems
 
I'm not even the one who star'd it.
Don't look at me like that
 
3:34 PM
@Simon t(ಠ益ಠt)
 
ô_ô
 
@TildalWave yes i know :( but i need to get down the basics... the basics i know are not useful for a professional area of work, the things i know are more vicious than proving a point if you know what i mean
 
Mar 11 at 14:01, by Ohnana
yes, we are all obsessed with penises
 
As if dicks weren't the greatest thing ever anyway.
4
 
uuuugh DST needs to die in a fire
 
3:37 PM
What's his middle name?
 
waking up to darkness once more is rough
7 AM, far western side of eastern time
 
@etherealflux easy solution -- fix the time so waking up in the dark in winter doesn't happen
 
@etherealflux even in the winter i dont wake up in the dark... i live 6 mins from my job :D .... i get up at 9ish
 
@silverpenguin Wow.
 
@silverpenguin sure, I was just expressing frustration that most CTFs seem to be about repackaging same old tricks and I rarely see something new ... not always tho, depends on the organizer
 
3:39 PM
@Simon you are so jelly of my life
 
Mhm.
 
I drive a z3 to work everyday that short distance
 
@etherealflux Far eastern side isn't much better off, I assure you.
 
the most pointless use of money ever
 
@silverpenguin wtf walk you lazy butt
 
3:40 PM
6 min drive @Ohnana !!
40 min walk!
 
wat
 
@silverpenguin WALK YO LAZY BUTT
 
Highly doubt a 6 mins drive equals to 40 mins of walking.
 
wait does it involve a highway?
 
I bet it doesn't.
 
3:41 PM
@Simon I live in a magical place called miltonkeynes
 
alternatively, get a bike
 
@RоryMcCune you will know MK right
 
Doesn't sound magical to me.
 
or a scooter, or SOMETHING
 
@silverpenguin ahhh yeah,
he's right
 
3:41 PM
@Ohnana i used to ride a motorcycle
 
MK is a bit odd like that
although it does have good paths
 
@silverpenguin no, people powered bikes
 
I've walked them many's the time myself.
@silverpenguin hey were you born in MK?
 
@RоryMcCune noo born in surrey!
 
@silverpenguin ahh my uncle is a doctor in MK
 
3:42 PM
@RоryMcCune I don't think people are actually born in Milton Keynes. They just get trapped there :-)
 
although retired now
@RoryAlsop I'm weird in that I actually like MK, it has a nice logical layout :)
 
@RоryMcCune Mortal Kombat? :O
 
@TildalWave Milton Keynes
 
he's busy :)
@RоryMcCune iknorite?
been there
 
@RоryMcCune i like it too! I want a job in your mk devision if they have a place for someone like me!
 
3:44 PM
@RоryMcCune looks like center city in philly and DC
me gusta
 
roundabout city from what I remember
 
You're a roundabout.
 
@silverpenguin oh yeah the Milton Keynes team, well $employer is, in general, hiring and if you're somewhere they have an office that makes it easier.
@TildalWave indeed apparently it causes problems for cars there, in terms of tire/suspension wear
 
@RоryMcCune that's probably a 'logical once you get it' - I'm at the stage before that which is 'how the **** do I get to that place just there in my car'
 
@TildalWave its a race track here
 
3:45 PM
Can you take a train from MK to London?
 
@RоryMcCune oh good so I wasn't imagining all that driving in circles LOL
 
Does the train go everywhere in the UK?
 
@RоryMcCune I go through left rear's waaay faster than all my other tyres :-)
@Simon no
 
o
 
@Simon yes
 
3:46 PM
re-o
 
@Simon yes you can get to a train from MK to london 0 problems
 
@silverpenguin that's a really quick one as well, if I recall correctly
Quite looking forward to staying at the Millenium Dome tonight :-)
 
Wait, can you take the train from UK to France or vice-versa?
 
@Simon yes
both
 
Does the train fly?
Is it the train from Harry Potter?
 
3:47 PM
you can go UK to France and France to UK
It goes underwater
 
Whoa.
 
@RoryAlsop the dome is a hotel now?
 
google Channel Tunnel
 
can it makeup its mind
 
you drive your car onto the train and then go into a hole in the ground
and pop up in the land of wine and croissants
 
3:48 PM
ô_ô
 
@RoryAlsop you just need to know the H and V streets you're off then count up (or down) as you go through them :) that breaks down a bit in the centre, but it's not too bad for the rest...
 
@silverpenguin nah - there's a hotel right next to it. Tring to figure out what my view will be like :-)
 
@RоryMcCune i have been living here for two years and still dont know the difference... i dont know the names... i just know directions and land marks xD
 
So you're actually underwater for quite a bit since it's 50 KM long and the train's max speed is 160 km/h.
Dayum.
 
@Simon yup
 
3:49 PM
@Simon it makes my ears pop
 
you must have seen that Mission Impossible - can't remember which one - where the helicopter flies into it
 
Oh look, a section dedicated to incidents on the wiki page, I never would have expected that.
 
@Simon heh, yeah
 
I need to take a train to Milton Keynes on Thursday, if client gets back to confirm
 
@Matthew you're Manchester based, right?
 
3:50 PM
@Matthew luncheon ?
 
@RoryAlsop Yeah, but the client isn't, and they know that we have nearer offices...
 
Imagine if someone managed to sneak a bomb to blow it up mid-way in the tunnel.
That'd be shitty.
Really, really shitty.
 
@Simon can we have one conversation that the nsa doesnt sniff around?
 
lulz
 
@silverpenguin and MI-6
 
3:53 PM
I hate manchester (no offence manchester people) when i first ever went there to work on the jets i was very uncomfortable with the aera lol
@TildalWave as long as they bring a bond girl im fine with it
and the trains from MCP to manchester airport ew :< no one cleaned that train in a while
 
MCP ^
 
isn't that supposed to be an animated gif?
 
@RoryAlsop ...power rangers?
Looks like Scottish Power Rangers or something
 
southpark
moses
 
@MarkBuffalo TRON Master Control Program
 
3:55 PM
oh
 
i think
 
I really need to see Tron
 
Thanks @TildalWave - can't believe these kids haven't yet seen that classic
 
@RoryAlsop i have seen tron alot the new and old lol ... though i cant remember the old one so well
 
@RoryAlsop they have a choice :)
spoiled little brats LOL
 
4:00 PM
hahahahahaha
 
@MarkBuffalo wait how have you not seen tron?
 
@silverpenguin They have a tram from the airport to the city now
 
@Matthew as if trams should be a thing xD ... trams should not be a thing :<
 
@silverpenguin What's your problem with them?
 
yh m8 u got a problème?
 
4:03 PM
@Simon You're a problème
fkn #rekt
 
@MarkBuffalo That's old news.
 
@Arperum I am only joking
also, lunch time. so I'm going to go stare at food due to my diet
 
Why does everyone take whatever I say today for being serious?
 
@Arperum Do you feel that everyone is taking whatever you say today as serious?
 
@Arperum That's the harshest thing that has ever been said to me.
 
4:05 PM
@Simon Lucky you.
 
@Arperum the trams i have seen in england are just seem to be so badly designed and placed they just suck ... trams are good when used correctly... here we dont seem to be able to design towns/citys well ... i think cars should be banned from large cities / towns and trams used... but obviously thats just a logisitical nightmare
 
@silverpenguin What's wrong with trams? They've not killed anyone this year, as far as I'm aware...
 
^^^
trams would work so well in london... but the underground is ok also
 
@Matthew Edinburgh Trams - utterly *****
 
@silverpenguin The problem with Manchester is that it is easy to go into or out of Manchester on public transport, i.e. like the spokes on a wheel. If you want to go across town, though, that's not so easy.
 
4:08 PM
worst possible route - as in, the existing bus route was award winning, did exactly what it needed, and caused no disruption. The trams on that route only serve a small fragment of it, disrupt everything, are inefficient, keep hitting people/cars/bikes
 
And if you got on anything run by northern rail, they're running an epic challenge to use as much rolling stock pre-dating the steam engine as is physically possible.
 
@RoryAlsop Oh, I've seen those... Yeah...
@diagprov Yeah, you can't go from Ashton to Rochdale without visiting Manchester. Although why you want to visit Rochdale, I can't imagine
 
Look at this damn Brit invasion happening right now.
 
@Simon surely it's not an invasion, but just reclamation... ahem
 
You'll have to go through me to change the canonical time zone, which I would like to remind everyone that it is EST.
 
4:14 PM
@Simon
 
wat
 
brits rule this place now
3
 
Pffft.
 
@silverpenguin s/now/again
:-)
 
AMERICANS HELP ME.
Oh wait, they're about to elect Trump, I don't want their help.
 
4:15 PM
@RoryAlsop i meant this chat room e_e , the americans wont help you!
 
Great. Yet another stiff-assed Brit.
 
@Simon Exactly.
 
@MarkBuffalo who what where?
 
Anyway the queen is our m8, she's on our monies.
 
@Simon Come with me, Simon. I've got these boards and a bucket of water.
 
4:17 PM
@MarkBuffalo Yeah no shit you do.
 
If they elect Trump I think that's legitimate grounds to revoke independence.
 
I'm a registered Republican
 
^^^ my respect went up for you sir
 
@MarkBuffalo you can serve real ales again and again? Excellent
 
Will probably vote for Bernie out of spite
 
4:18 PM
You're excellent.
 
Trump seems nuttier than a bowl of cashews.... and Hillary is worse
 
@Simon I know
@MarkBuffalo this is what the whole rest of the world thinks too
 
@RoryAlsop You'll have to forgive me. Not being British, I don't understand this joke
 
@RoryAlsop I don't think they have real ale in America... Didn't they invent Budweiser?
 
I never talk about my UK poltical opinion anymore... people really dont like it, which i think is silly people shouldnt get mad about peoples opinions
 
4:20 PM
I assume all very anti-US countries really hope Trump gets in
@MarkBuffalo a 'publican' owns a pub (or bar)
 
@RoryAlsop luls
 
@RoryAlsop Why? Wasn't he voted "most likely to nuke every anti-US country into oblivion if he becomes President" in high school?
 
@RoryAlsop Doubt it. They're afraid of him
 
@Iszi Instant proper reason for those countries to suddenly have even more allies
 
Our enemies know he'll go berserk and nuke the damn hell out of anyone that looks at him funny.
 
4:21 PM
People are already trying to attack him during his speeches.
He wouldn't last a year as president.
 
He's a strong leader, even if completely insane
 
@MarkBuffalo like Hitler
 
@Simon WE HAVE GUNS
 
@Ohnana Yes, yes you do.
 
@RoryAlsop Yes, in the same vein
 
4:22 PM
@RoryAlsop Yes, but I'm pretty sure Trump is for citizen's gun rights.
 
@Iszi as long as those citzens are white and love jesus
 
from what i understand about trump, alot of the crap people are going on about that trump does or says is taken 100% out of context and is just used to make him look like a douche... i dont support him and while i see him as a little extreme i can see the benefits he has
 
@Ohnana I'm red and love Jesus. Did I make the cut?
 
@silverpenguin no - he really is mental
 
My current working theory is that Trump is actually working for the Clinton campaign by doing his best to make sure the opposition is unelectable. I don't think he actually wants to be president.
 
4:23 PM
@Xander hahahahahahaha
 
@MarkBuffalo oooh so close. better hope they're colorblind
 
@Xander I hope not. Hillary is worse, lol
 
@Xander I've seen that theory elsewhere too... It's disturbingly plausible
 
@Xander Unelectable, yet somehow chosen above the contenders in his party?
 
if i was american bernie would have my vote
 
4:24 PM
ffs, I did not mean to switch the topic to politics.
 
I've been strongly considering a vote for Bernie, even though several of his issues are polar opposites of what I believe
 
@Simon well you did now you have to live with it
 
:(
 
@Simon Would you like to discuss trains again?
 
@MarkBuffalo such as what? he seems to be fairly level headed with tech
 
4:25 PM
Just because of how utterly insane the alternatives are
 
@diagprov CHOO CHOO
 
would be the first world leader to know anything
 
Also, Bernie is anti NSA spying on Americans
 
Damn. Sanders has been an elected official for longer than I've been alive.
 
And pro privacy
 
4:26 PM
@Iszi Yeah, by appealing strongly enough to the extreme right to both a) to completely eliminate support in that base for other right-wing candidates, but also b) completely eliminate support for himself in the moderate right base.
 
@MarkBuffalo vote bernie!
 
Bernie is consistent
 
proprivacy == my friend
 
I dunno. Just a thought I had this morning. I don't see why not, yet.
 
Trump and Hillary are anti privacy, pro government
I'm really at a weird catch 22 this election
 
4:27 PM
well trump is a bussiness man and hilary does not have a clue what she is doing
 
I've seen sound-bites of him from the past, voicing his support for Hillary.
 
The current UK government is even more anti-privacy than any US ones...
 
Yeah
 
@Matthew because they dont have a damn clue what they are doing
 
@silverpenguin that too
 
4:28 PM
this government makes me so mad, their anti privacy arguments are pathetic
 
@silverpenguin Yes, although I think our home secretary knows precisely what she's doing... Which is worrying
 
It's all about controlling you
 
@MarkBuffalo they cant control someone like me (or us in this room)
they can only control the people that cant compute
which is exactly where their argument falls flat
 
@MarkBuffalo because "we can't be trusted"... what happens when "they" can't be trusted?
 
@silverpenguin Would you like to be arrested for sending an encrypted zip file to someone? Might be entirely innocent, but the mere use of it could result in arrest... She's trying to make it so she can have virtually anyone arrested, then find a better reason later
 
4:31 PM
@Matthew Well, perhaps not, but those advising her do.
 
@Matthew Sad
 
@Matthew good luck on that, if that happens im leaving this country...
 
Wow. I always thought Sanders was the "old guy" in the race. But comparing Sanders/Clinton/Trump, there's only a 6-year spread.
 
@silverpenguin I have been wondering about heading off to the Netherlands...
 
This law has been pushed for a long time, starting with the Interception Modernization Programme.
 
4:32 PM
@Matthew plus good luck on VPNs... she cant do shit about that
 
Sanders is 74, Trump 69, Clinton 68.
 
@Iszi did you confuse Bernie with Col. Sanders?
 
The thing is, the senior civil service don't change between "administrations" as they do in the US.
 
@silverpenguin Sure she can. Can't see what your traffic is, you're using some kind of unauthorised encryption, therefore you're arrestable...
 
@TildalWave I thought if anyone stood a chance at being older than @RoryAlsop, Bernie at least looked the part.
 
4:33 PM
@Matthew that will never stand up lol.
 
So if they keep saying "what we need to fight terrorism is all the data we can get and btw that encryption stuff is pesky" then the government will legislate to give them that, because terrorism.
 
@diagprov And pedophiles. And drug smugglers.
Don't forget, there's three things that'll get the government carte blanche.
 
Terrorism is the most used bs excuse to get us to give up our freedom.
 
@silverpenguin You are very optimistic. If you make the laws, you can make anything stand up for long enough to make life uncomfortable for anyone you like
 
Pretty sad
 
4:35 PM
@Matthew Also applies to certain drug manufacturers, no?
 
@Matthew wana flat share a place in the netherlands ?
lol
 
@silverpenguin why there? :O
 
@TildalWave not to far from home, their government are not psychos
 
I'm not so sure about that
 
in all honesty i would love to go to japan but the stigma on working disabableds would be hard for me
wow i sucked up that word... you all know what i meant
 
4:37 PM
@TildalWave They've opposed security backdoors: nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2016/01/06/…
 
Netherlands is literally the voice of reason for most things.
 
@Matthew I think you should read that article again
 
We could all move to Canada and say hi to @Simon.
I know what he really needs is to talk to more British people.
 
@TildalWave It's still a lot better than our government "give us all data, whether you've done anything bad or not, ideally without us having to ask"
 
@Matthew which one is your government?
Ah UK
 
4:43 PM
@Matthew I think thats the most annoying thing though, I dont do anything wrong but yet every tom dick and harry should be allowed to see what i do because, why? because fuck you is why
haha this topic makes me so angry im sorry everyone e_e
 
@silverpenguin you think it's only personal privacy? How about corporate one?
where does one draw a line?
 
@TildalWave corporate is a tad different from personal i think, but yes its still dumb they want to see... im sorry is mcdonalds some secret terrorist ring?
 
and we all know how good UK gov't is at keeping secrets
 
@TildalWave Yeah. I know Netherlands isn't perfect, but it's better, and it's close enough here to be able to visit friends and family without too much effort. Also, I know some people who live there already
 
ronald mcdonald mein fuhrer
damn idiots
 
4:48 PM
@TildalWave I do not know what you are on about. No government officials in the UK would ever dream of, say, leaving top secret documents on a train.
 
not even twice :)
 
@TildalWave man you could probably find their crap by googling, some guy probably has it on a rasp pi at his house with secretfiles.co.uk
apache2 drag drop
 
point is that one of these days some corporate secrets are gonna leak via the gov't channel
then the shit hits the fan
 
we will all just have to address this issue when it comes to it :D
its been blocked a few times already
we just got to hope it keeps being blocked and if not then we will deal with the situation when it arises :)
 
@TildalWave Of course we've been dwarfed by the US now...
 
4:53 PM
i watched spectre last night
everyone watch spectre... those feels right now
