02:24 < aestetix_> RangerZ: I meant vim vs emacs
02:25 <@RangerZ> i thought so... but how is that '2 letters' ?
02:27 < aestetix_> I do not know how the c and s could be 70 megs all on their own....
02:30  * RangerZ shrugs
02:30 <@RangerZ> probably depenedancy explosion is my guess
02:32 < aestetix_> also, my vim install is only 2.1 megs
03:57  * RangerZ is having too much fun right now while sleep deprived
03:58  * RangerZ is making auto-graders for assignments, and our 'official' error that will be generated to students when they have a compilation error will state "Error 37"
03:59  * RangerZ is thinking about making an assignment that way I can make an error be 'pc load letter' too

04:23 <@RangerZ> yes
04:24 <@RangerZ> ugh, extra 'yes'
04:24 <@RangerZ> but that might but a good snippet/quote for PN (or hope even) (from The Net if anyone can't place it offhand)

04:28 <@RangerZ> I'm not even going to -pretend- to click that link
04:28 <@RangerZ> or comment on that magnet of scrutiny
04:28 < aestetix_> It's the twitter account of the group that is dumping the DHS data
04:28  * RangerZ no clue
04:28 <@RangerZ> but I saw that
04:29 <@RangerZ> 20k fbi records
04:29 <@RangerZ> which honestly does nobody any good
04:29 < aestetix_> that's bad
04:29 < aestetix_> yes
04:29 < aestetix_> They blew their load early.
04:29 < aestetix_> I mean if you have data like that, use it to do something.
04:29 <@RangerZ> because FBI is literally the -most boring- part of the federal gov't
04:30 <@RangerZ> I trust the FBI over pretty much any other division
04:30 <@RangerZ> hell look at the FBI vs CIA inner-office fights that have gone on
04:32 <@RangerZ> it takes a fucking LOT to make _ME_ root for John Ashcroft as the god damn hero standing up for "Peace, Justice, and the American way."
04:32 < aestetix_> lol
04:32 < aestetix_> Kiss My Ashcroft
04:32 <@RangerZ> though that was Juctice vs Chaney

04:33 <@RangerZ> do you know what I'm talking about?
04:33 < aestetix_> yes
04:33 < aestetix_> The hospital thing right?
04:33 <@RangerZ> I actually stumbled across his witness testamony live on c-span
04:33 <@RangerZ> yeah
04:33 <@RangerZ> me and my mom sat down and watched that like it was a fucking summer-blockbuster
04:34 < aestetix_> that reminds me
04:34  * aestetix_ searches for news about donald trump
04:35 <@RangerZ> he called someone a pussy at a speech
04:35 <@RangerZ> and since then he came in 2nd to Bernie in the 3 early "towns" (like 30 votes total among the 3 'towns') in NH
04:35 <@RangerZ> It was Cruz about Water Boarding

04:47 < aestetix_> I hate articles like this
04:48 < aestetix_> Especially given that we're already seeing the conservative backlash
04:48 < aestetix_> Just like how the craziness of the 1960s hit the wall of the 80s

04:50 <@RangerZ> yeah... I don't think that article is right
04:50 <@RangerZ> the reason we aren't getting married is b/c we don't have stable jobs
04:50 < aestetix_> yep
04:51 < aestetix_> well and debt
04:51 <@RangerZ> we might co-habitate... but that is just to pay the bills
04:51 < aestetix_> also, it's easy to be an atheist when you are young and healthy
04:51 <@RangerZ> I've priced out a house... and literally the cheapest way to build it is to just buy a shipping container, and plot of land
04:51 < aestetix_> I've seen so many people return to a church when they have kids and suddenly realize they have to be a voice of reason for their kids
04:52 <@RangerZ> and build woden floors, and walls around the outside, with open floorplan and whatnot inside
04:52 < aestetix_> Or when they get sick.
04:52 < aestetix_> etc
04:52 <@RangerZ> and then slowly expand when you have money
04:52 <@RangerZ> anything else right now is a fucking gamble
04:53 <@RangerZ> we're heading for another housing bubble
04:53 <@RangerZ> I think this one is going to take a while to show, and will require some outside influence... but thankfully that has never happened before
04:54 <@RangerZ> so we don't have to worry about say.... ohh I don't know... the banking industry lying and cheating, and starting to colapse when their chickens come home to roost or anything
04:54 < aestetix_> Also, there's this illusion that there was a single patriarchy that lasted from all history until the 60s feminist movement
04:55 < aestetix_> I love when people blame religion for that even though judaeism for example is matrilinear
04:55 <@RangerZ> aestetix_: no, you gotta separate out the trolls/(whatever term you want to use for them) from the rest of society
04:56 <@RangerZ> they are a vocal minorty, just like MRAs
04:56 <@RangerZ> and the 'pick up artists'
04:57 <@RangerZ> "The peer-to-peer nature of contemporary communication appears to be horizontal, democratic and inclusive"
04:58 <@RangerZ> I want to know where this 'peer-to-peer' contemporary communication is
04:58 <@RangerZ> and how it is 'horizontal'
04:59 <@RangerZ> Because I'm pretty fucking sure we're all connected to a freenode server, that Skype (the only arguable answer to that question years ago) is now Client/Server, and so is every other major communications platform that is in heavy usage
05:01 <@RangerZ> torrents don't really count, that is media propogation, not really 'communication'

12:38 < aestetix_> dasunt: my main question: why is twitter doing this instead of upgrading their privacy settings
12:38 <@Evilpig> are they all looking at you?
12:42 < _NSAKEY> aestetix_: This reads like feel-good bullshit that won't actually accomplish anything... Unless they pulled a YouTube and gave these people direct banhammer access, in which case we're all screwed.

12:53 < dasunt> I'm getting quite annoyed at our species inability to handle the internet's echo chambers which tends to mutate good ideas into bad ones.
12:56 < dasunt> Also, when did "masculinity" become a bad word?
12:57 < dasunt> I've noticed "masculinity" being used as a derogatory term, and I'm not sure where it's coming from.
12:59 <@oddball> SJWs and the radical feminists
13:00 <@oddball> Remember: everything bad/evil is the fault of white men.
13:00 < dasunt> Is there an academic source, or is this some tumblrista thing?
13:00 < aestetix_> god
13:00 < aestetix_> this council is so fucking stupid
13:00 < aestetix_> Twitter is brilliant for doing it. Every group that signed on is a fucking idiot.
13:00 <@oddball> Oh, it's been perculating for decades
13:01 < dasunt> I actually enjoy reading some of the academic source material.  It's interesting.
13:01 < aestetix_> Twitter is letting a bunch of activists feel like they are part of something, in exchange for free liability.
13:01 < dasunt> But by the time it makes it to the crazy crowd, it becomes a thought terminating word or phrase.
13:02 <@oddball> The whole fami-nazi man hater thought pattern that the worlds problems would be solved if only women were in charge has been a documented thing since at least the 60's.
13:02 <@oddball> I'm trying to remember, was it Airplane that had a joke about it?
13:04 <@oddball> The big problem now is that the mainstream is actually treating them seriously.
13:04 < aestetix_> oddball: it goes through waves
13:04 < aestetix_> It happened in the 60s, died out, and is coming back again
13:04 <@oddball> Oh, and they've discovered that their bullying techniques work.
13:05 <@oddball> yep
13:05 < _NSAKEY> oddball: What's ironic is that they have their much-hated "patriarchy" to blame for said bullying techniques.
13:05 <@oddball> pfft.  Details.
13:05 < _NSAKEY> There's not much difference between today's foaming-at-the-mouth radical feminist and the early American foaming-at-the-mouth Puritans.
13:06 < _NSAKEY> You strip away Jesus and swap the clothing around... And that's about it.
13:06 <@oddball> My favorite is the ones that then scream in outrage over the current idea of "well, if women want to be able to be in combat, let's make them sign up for the draft."  I mean... they want equality, right?
13:06 < dasunt> I'm actually pretty liberal when it comes to a lot of the ideology.  I just dislike people who use it as a stick to beat others down rather than a way to improve things.
13:07 < aestetix_> Why do they want to be in combat? They like getting shot at?
13:07 < aestetix_> If I got drafted I would plead to be assigned to peeling potatos
13:08 < aestetix_> And suggest they send this guy RangerZ to the front line
13:08 <@oddball> Apparently some women do... just like some men do.
13:08 < dasunt> Seems sane to me.
13:08 < aestetix_> oddball: and if those men were childbearing, they might be equal.
13:08 < dasunt> I have no problem with anyone pointing out that modern warfare doesn't tend to be a test of brute strength.

14:16 <@Evilpig> that's actually four lines
14:26 < dasunt> Having played around with Facebook "report posts" settings, all spambots and hijacking malware has to do is delete the spam a few hours later for FB not to be able to do anything.
14:26 < dasunt> I'd have thought "report post" would have saved a copy for review, but...
14:27 <@CRasH180> I would imagine their data retention on the server could allow for a copy to be retrieved. But, that would mean that they would need to do some work
14:29 < dasunt> I know users are the product and not the customer, but you think removing blatent spam would be something they'd want to do - if for nothing else, the spammers are bypassing paying for FB advertising.

15:24 < dasunt> Last night, I was waiting outside my local convenience store for a Craigslist seller and I heard one car crash into another.
15:26 < dasunt> Then it was quiet for about ten minutes.  But after what I assume was the cars moving off the street into a nearby parking lot, I started to hear minor crashes.
15:26 < dasunt> It turned out there was a plastic car bumper in the road and people kept hitting it.
15:26 < dasunt> Sure it was dark, but this is a 30 mph neighborhood on a street between an apartment building and a row of houses.
15:28 < dasunt> If the bumper was just making traffic clog up, I'd have walked over and moved it out of the way.  But considering that these distracted idiots kept running into the bumper, I figured it was providing an important driving lesson.

20:11 <@RangerZ> well... there goes encryption
20:11 <@RangerZ> :/
20:12 < aestetix_> Evilpig: the same reason Bernie just won
20:15 <@RangerZ> aestetix_: I wish it was that simple
20:17 <@RangerZ> the problem is that rent has gone up, healthcare costs have gone up (slower now under obamacare but still going up) and the cost of edu*FML*cation goes up... while earnings stay stagnant or drop
20:19 <@RangerZ> _NSAKEY: did you just buy a Raspberry Pi this week?
20:19 <@RangerZ> I figured you did because it looks like they might announce a new version next week ;)
20:21 <@Dagmar> Soo... There's a /r/Comcast
20:21  * Dagmar rubs hands together
20:22 < dfused> oh shit
20:22 < dfused> there goes reddit.

20:28 <@oddball> Or just your general crusade.
20:28 <@Dagmar> No, it's the same shit connectioni it always is
20:31 <@RangerZ> top post on it is ALMOST posted by dagmar https://www.reddit.com/r/Comcast/comments/43ryy7/if_you_own_a_retail_arrismotorola_sb6121_or/

20:32 <@Dagmar> I'm upvoting that
20:41 < _NSAKEY> Dagmar: I thought your unicorn sprinkled pixie dust all over the situation and solved your problem?
20:41 <@Dagmar> No, she just managed to create a problem ticket and get it to the people in charge of programming the provisioning system
20:42 <@Dagmar> What _they're_ doing is probably being hampered by middle-management skullduggery.
20:42 < _NSAKEY> But she understood what was going on, unlike the other keyboard droolers you've dealt with before?
20:42 <@Dagmar> Yeah she's one of TWO people who seemed to understand which things are supposed to do what
20:42 <@Dagmar> The other person barely spoke English but was otherwise a sharp little asian girl.
20:47 < _NSAKEY> That's just sad.
20:47 < _NSAKEY> "Yes, we have a language barrier going on, but that doesn't matter because all these other English speakers are dumbasses."
20:48 <@Dagmar> heh
20:48 < _NSAKEY> You can fix a language barrier, but you can't fix stupid.
20:48 <@Evilpig> I disagree
20:49 < _NSAKEY> You can mitigate stupid with large, blunt objects, but that doesn't fix the root cause of the problem.
20:49 <@Evilpig> stupid is fixed with a backhoe and an empty lot
20:55 < _NSAKEY> But Evilpig, you left out one important detail.
20:55 < _NSAKEY> Would you let the Comcast employees flee first, or board them in and then start demolishing?
20:56 <@RangerZ> _NSAKEY: why wouldn't you set the building on fire first?
20:57 <@RangerZ> I mean if you are going to be a V for Vendetta-esk figure... might as well do it with flair
20:59 <@Evilpig> I gotta tell y'all.  I like my nvidia shield but I hate the remote
20:59 <@Evilpig> I keep losing it
20:59 <@Dagmar> heh
21:00 <@RangerZ> remote?
21:00 <@RangerZ> ohh you must have the set-top box one
21:00 <@RangerZ> I still think of the hand-held version when I hear 'nvidia shield'

21:22 <@RangerZ> Dagmar: I'm going to assume your firewall -also- has a gigabit ethernet on the internal side
21:22 <@Dagmar> No but it's not like it matters
21:22 <@RangerZ> because the way you worded that, it sounded funny
21:22 <@Dagmar> That 100base-T segment caps out at a hair over 95mbps
21:23 <@Dagmar> I don't see any point in even spending the $15 to upgrade that to a PCI gigabit ethernet card at the rate things are going
21:23 <@Dagmar> FFS right now i'm back to that goddamn "default" config file that only does 30/6
21:23 <@Dagmar> I understand that 38mbps only happens under _ideal_ conditions, but that Comcast is fucking around like this baffles me
21:24 <@Dagmar> If the fucking modem could get a config telling it that it can attempt to reach 240mbps I'd be happy
21:30 < aestetix_> so is there an issue with New Hampshire
21:30 < aestetix_> or is it sheer luck that Trump won by so much
21:31 <@Dagmar> These are the primaries.  He's only competing against the other republicans.
21:32 < aestetix_> So it just says what a disaster all the other republicans are
21:38 <@Dagmar> Yeah.  Trump's their lead monkey and exactly none of the republicans trying have any business even attempting to get the job
21:38 <@Dagmar> ...and I hate to say it but Trump is practically fuckin' Hitler
21:39 <@Dagmar> I don't want to invoke Godwin, but the level to which he's relying on nationalism and rhetoric has to be scaring the shit out of some old jews
21:45 < aestetix_> I disagree. Hitler had more class.

23:03 <@Dagmar> ...and dumbass number one running their mouth off on my thread has been slapped to the ground.
23:03 <@Dagmar> Fuck him and the horse he rode in on
23:04 <@Dagmar> He wanted a TL;DR after uselessly linking the bullshit about Comcast has the SB6141 only "rated" for 150Mbps
23:04 <@Dagmar> ...and then says this: "Sorry you are mad about some stuff. Best of luck with whatever it is you are doing."
23:05 <@Dagmar> I asked him if he's considered applying for a job at Comcast because he's just as useless as their people are
23:27 < aestetix_> Dagmar: I had fun explaining to my European colleagues yesterday how the internet in the US works
23:28 < aestetix_> "There is no competition. You usually get either Comcast or ATT, and you're stuck with whatever they offer."
23:34 <@Dagmar> It's kind of shameful that _we invented the damn thing_ and corporations are just abusing it
