06:47 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:00 <@Dolemite> Didn't the new law go into effect last week that requires all ticketfucker fees to be disclosed up front?
07:11 < Evilpig> doesn't really matter if they're disclosed or not.  they add $30 - $50 to every ticket price
07:11 < Evilpig> fuck those clowns
07:11 <@Dolemite> yep, scavengers
07:12 < Evilpig> calling it a "convenience" fee is infuritating because there literally is no other way to get the tickes in many cases.  they are no longer more convenient than going to the box office
07:14 <@Dolemite> Yeah, I truly miss the days where if you were a true fan and wanted a good seat, you got in line at the box office
07:14 <@Dolemite> And no, that isn't sarcasm
07:16 < Evilpig> the scalping side of ticketbastard is a whole other rant.  the sliding price scales based on demand.  the reserved "platinum" fan tickets
07:16 <@Dolemite> Oh, and whatever was fucking up my GlobalProtect...  after last week's forced patch/reboot, my session has been active since Thursday
07:17 < Evilpig> so you can buy a ticket from them, immediately put it up for resale through them, and if the artist comes back later and says no reselling, ticketbastard can then revoke your ticket for offering it for sale, keep your money, and then sell the seat too
07:17 <@Dolemite> of course they can
07:17 <@Dolemite> damn
07:18 < Evilpig> I was reading up on that after i bought some tickets last month and didn't get my tickets immediately and was confused
07:18 < Evilpig> to combat scalping.....  two of the shows I bought tickets to are holding the tickets back until 48 hours before the event
07:19 <@Mirage> Evilpig: The main hang-up for here is that it's in late Aug at an outdoor ampitheatre...the same place we went to see Willy Nelson in Jul a couple years back.  The place was miserably hot and they disallowed bringing in your own lawn chairs, coolers, water, etc.   A small bottle of water was like $5-7.
07:21 < Evilpig> it's at bridgestone here.  but $154 for a GA ticket was/is nuts
07:22 < Evilpig> I did look again and see they still have a ton of tickets available and the seat prices are going down now.  more of an argument against ticketbastard's pricing scheming
07:22 <@Mirage> I looked and I think the lawn seats were $135.  The seats under the shaded area were $187+
07:22 <@Dolemite> Hrmmm.   DMB is playing Summerfest in Milwaukee next week while I'm up there.   I'm surprised at how many tickets are still available.
07:23 < Evilpig> They're still touring?
07:23 <@Dolemite> Yep.  Still sitting in my bucket list, too.
07:25 <@Dolemite> Well that's not too bad - TicketBastard is "only" adding $3.50/ticket.
07:25 < Evilpig> As much as a pain in the ass as all this plex mess has been it did identify a few bad files that managed to creep into my archives.  My process generating the preview thumbnails got hung up yesterday on this one file turns out it was a bad encode and needed to be replaced
07:25 < Evilpig> only $3.50?  bullshit.
07:26 <@Dolemite> Or are they adding fees after the Checkout button?   I don't have an account so I stopped at the Sign In screen.

07:26 <@Dolemite> I was looking at 2 lawn seats
07:27 < Evilpig> you are not wrong.  I can't believe it
07:28 <@Dolemite> Meh, I'd likely get a Section 3xx seat and have a bench seat.   Apparently they don't allow you to bring in lawn chairs.
07:29 <@Dolemite> It's worth an extra $10/ticket to not actually sit in the grass
07:30 < Evilpig> my $55 tickets for Babymetal and Dethklok at Nashville Municipal Auditorium
07:30 < Evilpig> Fees
07:30 < Evilpig> USD $4.50 (Order Processing Fee)
07:30 < Evilpig> USD $16.35 (Service Fee) x 2
07:30 <@Dolemite> If I go to that I have to miss the reception at the Harley Davidson Museum that HPE is paying for.
07:30 < Evilpig> USD $1.52 (Tax) x 2
07:30 <@Dolemite> Since there are so many seats left I figure I'll make a game day decision, mostly based on the weather

07:35 < PigBot> States With Abortion Bans Are Losing a Generation of Ob-Gyns | WIRED (at www.wired.com) https://tinyurl.com/2aarvgpj
07:35 <@Dolemite> I hadn't quite thought this one all the way through...
07:36 <@Dolemite> Almost 45 percent of the 286 accredited ob-gyn programs in the US now operate under revived or new abortion bans, meaning that more than 2,000 residents per year—trainee doctors who have committed to the specialty—may not receive the required training to be licensed.
07:36 <@Dolemite> In February, a group of students, residents and faculty surveyed 2,063 licensed and trainee physicians and found that 82 percent want to work or train in states that retain abortion access—and 76 percent would refuse to apply in states that restrict it.

07:40 < Evilpig> Mirage: I can totally see him doing that
07:43 <@Dolemite> ROFLMAO
08:01 < Evilpig> this might be the worst movie poster I have ever seen.  https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/790867-the-eternal-daughter  her face, ugh

08:27 <@Dolemite> Heh.   Our OneID provisioning process takes about 4 hours every night, because it has a hash function written in java that has to be performed on every SSN.  Found out that a Python library is available and asked for it.   Just doing my tests with the time command, java takes 0.89 seconds for every iteration, Python takes right around 0.15 seconds.
08:28 <@Dolemite> I know it's from having to load the JVM over and over and over - because of course, the dingaling that wrote the initial script didn't think about the impact of calling it for 7,000 user accounts every day...
08:42 < Evilpig> that does make a differnce
08:43 < Evilpig> that's how I improved our printer management stuff.  the old script was reading this one file in for every loop iteration
08:45 <@Dolemite> Eventually I plan to rewrite the whole thing in Python so that I can just have one big fat dict/associative array in memory and process them all at once
08:45 <@Dolemite> Currently it's one of those horrible Perl scripts that started out as an LDAP loader script
08:45 < Evilpig> it's definitely a good way to go
08:46 < Evilpig> I've been using classes more recently for stuff like that too
08:46 <@Dolemite> My Python is still in the toddler stage
08:47 <@Mirage> Ditto.  I don't have enough calling to use it to do more than get moderately proficient for a month and then not tough it again for another 6-9 months
08:47 <@Mirage> ^s/tough/touch/
08:47 <@Dolemite> Yep, I wrote something in it a few years ago....   then I touched it again about 6 months ago.
08:48 <@Dolemite> Pig keeps sending me snippets of Python code to look at and I'm like, "Cool, nice indentation".  LOL
08:55 < Evilpig> been distracted enough.  gotta get back to this luks problem I was working on last night
08:56 < Evilpig> part of our inventory process uncovered that we have some encrypted machines missing backup unlock keys and working on a plan to recitfy that and found some weird quirks
08:58 < Evilpig> if you take and put a passphrase into a file like /root/luks.unlock then do cryptsetup addKey --key-file=/root/luks.unlock  it will add the passphrase to an available keyslot.  HOWEVER, if there is a linebreak in that file then it uses the file itself as the key and if you run the register again it will register that file as a new key again in a different slot
08:59 < Evilpig> echo -n "secret unlock phrase" > /root/luks.unlock   ==   adds the phrase "secret unlock phrase" to allow the disk to be unlocked at boot
08:59 < Evilpig> echo "secret unlock phrase" > /root/luks.unlock   ==  adds the file as the unlock key and not the phrase inside it, and will register in a new slot everytime you run the register
09:00 < Evilpig> the first one will just say that the phrase is already registered or something to that effect.
10:27 <@Dolemite> Hrmm, looks like I have to look for and reject underscores in cert CN/SAN names
10:28 < Evilpig> there are some?  only hyphens are valid for urls, iirc
10:28 <@Dolemite> well apparently devices allowed someone to register the DNS name, so therefore it passed the sniff test for certmanager
10:28 <@Dolemite> but then got rejected by the CA
10:29 < Evilpig> ahhhh
10:29  * Evilpig goes to check his vm names
10:48 <@Mirage> customer recently did something w/ upstream firewalls from our management stack, so now I can't use yum to update or install anything.
10:49 <@Mirage> As a dirty hack for right now I setup 3proxy on my local VM and am proxying yum through it via reverse ssh tunnels.   Not optimal, but it works.
10:51 <@Mirage> Only getting ~800kb/s, though...so gonna take a bit to do all 8 of the boxes that need to be patched 
11:14 <@Dolemite> T-Mobile is giving away pride tumblers for their T-Mobile Tuesday deal this week.  Pamela and Melanie are picking up as many as they'll give us so that we can use them in public - mostly to take to the pool and annoy our homophobic neighbors.  LOL
11:14 <@Dolemite> I'm sure that the Knoxville T-Mobile stores will have more in stock than people decide to claim
11:56 < dasunt> Is there a better solution for searching these days than Google?  Getting kind of annoyed how Google is dropping search terms it can't find matches for.
11:57 < dasunt> I'm doing stuff like searching for 'foobar bad authentication error' and it's dropping the 'foobar' term because it isn't finding enough results.  Which is not helpful.
13:06 <@Dagmar> Improper detainting and validation of user-supplied data strikes again
13:06 <@Dagmar> A records may not contain underscores.

16:29 <@Mirage> 3proxy ("a tiny proxy") doesn't seem to like it when two clients behind it are downloading the same file.  Keep getting checksum mismatch errors on one of them and everything was fine once I waited for one to finish and then kick yum off on the other again
18:14 <@Dagmar> That sounds like its various threads aren't in cahoots with each other so the second thread is seeing the partially-downloaded file and is trying to schlep that
