@kll @IsTouchIdHacked @Arturas well, I don't have ten thousand dollars to spare, but $25 is infinitely better than $0 eh?
I did not formally pledge @IsTouchIdHacked but I have sent them a little something in @arturas's honor

@mikedoherty_ca yeah his name is @arturas
@Dan2552 the people in charge did say it was not being awarded on the video alone as the video is weak.
@Dan2552 anyone with a well-established reputation for having performed fingerprint hacks in the past and has well-known witnesses yes
@0xcharlie @Arturas no you would still have me I would never make fun of you Dr. Chopshop
@iPlop when they took questions from the press etc. they clearly said: no, no, fake/severed finger will not work, we tested
@iPlop it was marketed as: requires. the. real. finger.
@TehGrumpyDude not really! But it had to be proven.
@PxlPhile talking about someone on twitter without atting their handle. Or in this case, talking about a thing and not linking it
.@skattyadz probably, but dont say “oh it must be a real live finger to work!” and expect us to not try really hard :)
The community broke the marketing promises of Touch ID on a scale of *hours* and we outed a toxic fraud. Cheers all around

@jasonmp85 @bstreiff um, no, that's never what #istouchidhackedyet was, source: I am kinda you know friends with all these people

I notice the comments on his bloggy thing aren't moderated. What a strange choice.
@filcab yes, exactly.

Successfully unfollowed and blocked by @arturas with one tweet! Is good day.
@oh_rodr @chriseng @Arturas yeah... we all got professional ethics to keep in mind
@mckeay @thegrugq I have not done anything so evil as to deserve that
@xa329 I assure you I am utterly 100% aware of that :) It was kinda my topic of research for several months recently...
@dipidoo yeah, we shielded things, but the cargo cult fear of it remained
@xa329 yeah, and then we fixed it. Go humans! (unironic, for once)
I had a dream that @thegrugq was showing me around Vegas. I'm putting this one down as one of those nightmares where you almost die
@dipidoo if it was actually a problem compared to the hardening airplanes already have, we'd find out from all those crashes :)
It's as rational an explanation as any as to why being bathed in the airports electronic interference is okay but that kindle is too much

@kx001 I'm a mix of Scottish and Irish, which people do seem to pronounce as Scotch-Irish around here.
@Talen_Lee not in the closet, he's way out of the closet.
@Talen_Lee nah, it's just that the door in question is in fact what's keeping a character who happens to be bi stuck inside.
@Talen_Lee not the kind that you bar shut, though, or it'd kinda be missing the point. Which is to keep the bisexual chars in the dungeon!
@kx001 I'm... pretty sure it's called scotch as short for Scotch Whiskey because it is Whiskey of Scotch Origin
Encyclopedia Brown would have caught that I described the same door as swinging both in and out in two different chapters. Oops. #editing

# 381925308061855744
@talldarknweirdo the point being that we leave clear 2D fingerprints on accessible objects fairly often.
@talldarknweirdo he is my friend. We've talked about this. He has repeatedly used terms like "such as a beer mug."
@talldarknweirdo that never was part of the requirements. Just that the source material was 2D, not 3D.
@Maclark89 and, as crypto, is a vector of last resort :) the whole bet was originally based on taking a 2D print, the "easy" vector.
@Maclark89 ummmmmm..... no. Definitely, absolutely not. That doesn't even really make sense in the context of a fingerprint scanner.
@Maclark89 it doesn't matter! If the CCC claim is legitimate, then the sensor is hacked according to specification.
@Maclark89 um, well, the *whole point* is that it was specifically marketed to only work for *the real, fleshly finger.*

@redsoxunixgeek I've bought iPad 1, 3 and 4 and none of them did.

It looks like Apple's next event is Tuesday the 15th so maybe I should aim for Tuesday the 8th? Will I be satisfied with editing in 2 weeks?
So far 3/4 of you have said Tuesday so there must be something to this

@bbfreak HOWEVER - don't get the 64GB model - I cheaped out - and now all my games are on external USB :p
@bbfreak and Morrowind on all the highest settings, which doesn't give it pause.
@bbfreak it's fine for "typical" games ie Not Skyrim. I've played Torchlight 2, Guild Wars 2 on modest settings, Eve Online, etc.
@fuzzmz @mikko they probably went on a takedown rampage already because it hit the tech news.
@m1sp what purposes are that

Pretty strange that I feel "*definitely* female" but in a slightly different cultural context I would be considered way too masculine
@eevee heheh well I blocked them so if you fight about it, you're gonna sound like a crazy person if you leave me on the cc ;)

@thegrugq oh I dont think that. I just wonder if we could've maybe gotten this in particular fixed years ago if things had gone differently
@eevee yes :(
.@thegrugq everyone qualified to notice that the default algo was one under serious suspicion
However I kinda wonder if we collectively screwed up in not really noticing this and making it a Big Deal sooner (2/2)
I see no rational basis on which RSA can justify keeping it as the DEFAULT after the research published in 2006/2007 (1/2)
@vogon its slow, and there are multiple papers attacking it as flawed, so lets keep it as the default
@eevee I see you dont work for a Christian book store (for some reason this is the default example for unreasonable bosses)
So RSAs defense is actually that they used the slowest algo as the default because elliptic curves were a hot trend. Brilliant
@dinodaizovi aww
@eevee yes, some people are just convinced theyll get fired if their boss finds out they say things on the internet

@mtheoryx so there is simply something particular to the exact combination that produces brown food dye which is disagreeable

@mtheoryx here is one kind http://t.co/QXIoY8izhW
@mtheoryx lol you know I never said it was chocolate I said it was brown dye
@mtheoryx like... brown dye.
@mtheoryx I don't see how being allergic to coca cola, pepsi, root beer, and all knockoffs could have anything to do with dairy.
@mtheoryx coffee, sorts of dark bread that aren't totally fakey, actual pure chocolate ie the expensive kind
@_JosephGrace is that not what I got when I double tapped home ?
@mtheoryx oh I am lactose intolerant but that's pretty much complete curable with pills.
@mtheoryx ie this bottled Starbucks stuff is brown as heck but its just actual coffee and milk
@kivikakk well that seems dramatic
@invalidname click the what
RT @aeleruil: @0xabad1dea swipe up from bottom
@mtheoryx yes, ones that are completely 100% naturally brown with no dyes
Yes hello how do I #%^* pause my music on iOS 7 because double tapping home doesnt bring up that bar any more
@mtheoryx nah havent tried. Im also randomly allergic to medicines so Im pretty hesitant to try new ones.
“Why does my local mall have its own Wikipedia page” *click* “was the setting for the movie Mall Cop” … huh.
@vogon so the end result is that I like white chocolate, even the cheap stuff, more than nice chocolate because I dont have a bad assoc
@mtheoryx well this will intrigue you: the exact reaction is that my ear canals inflame. Happens to my mother too.
@vogon it is a good excuse to buy expensive European chocolate, but the association has built up in my head to expect a reaction lol
@vogon basically: anything with cheap chocolate. All cola. Many breads, cereals, etc. They add brown dye to counterbalance fillers
@mtheoryx my life improved dramatically when I figured out the pattern and avoided mass-produced food that is a nice even brown.
@thegrugq @quine @0xcharlie all I know is that my theology teacher told us about this song and that it was from the devil.
@mtheoryx or I could not make myself miserable because its already happened enough hundreds of times
@mtheoryx I didnt say it did! Its to make it LOOK like chocolate.
@mtheoryx cola, chocolate candy, some brown breads, but not very pure stuff that is naturally brown like coffee.
@mtheoryx I dont know! My family determined the common factor in everything I was allergic to was being brown, often artificially so.
@mtheoryx in actual (cheap) chocolate bars, to counterbalance the filler. In flavored foods, to make it more obviously chocolate flavored.
@mtheoryx pure chocolate obviously has no dye but how often does one actually have pure chocolate
@mtheoryx brown food dye in foods that contain chocolate flavor.
@mtheoryx you may have read my tweet backwards…v
@mtheoryx Im allergic to brown food dye. It features in a very large percentage of chocolate flavored things.
@frkbmb @vogon roll the dice and find out what kind of chocolate is in Mass Produced Food Product X, eh? :)
@frkbmb @vogon no, Im allergic to brown food dye, which most chocolate has to make it look “right”
I continue to be astounded at the number of people prejudiced against white chocolate. The fact that Im never allergic to it kinda factors.
@frkbmb @vogon yeah and as a bonus I dont have to wonder if Im allergic to it
@mtheoryx well its a BRIBE what do you think I mean uh
@vogon you know Im allergic to the color brown right No literally not joking

@dakami well, I was thinking hundreds trying hundreds of phones, if its against one phone I would want thousands.
@matthew_d_green one Starbucks gift card
@tapbot_paul I bet its the pulse. Youve probably seen that video thats shot to show up the guy's pulse under his skin
@dakami ie if hundreds of people try each others phones and come up with zero collisions, thats a good sign its working as intended
@tapbot_paul perhaps if you stick your finger in ice water? Or is it looking for the pulse?
@dakami measure, measure, measure. Its a black box to empirically verify.
@tapbot_paul perhaps I should say and their four best friends if were assuming five tries before lockdown
@objclxt those scanners are foolable with a flat image though, theyre not directly relatable.
@tapbot_paul what are the odds that the thief and their ten best friends might have a collision with my fingerprint?
@tapbot_paul for the actual testing Im assuming a sacrificial lamb phone. But from a security point of view, if my phone were stolen,
@demize95 thats the thing, I wont be satisfied without some empirical third party measurements
Seriously though, I want to know if I could hand my phone off to ten thousand strangers and realistically expect zero fingerprint collisions

@johanjortso heheh do you mean my avatar? Her name is Kasane Teto and she is a parody of Hatsune Miku
@johanjortso "relic" is the word Rowling chose as the backup word that means something alike to hallows, so I guess so.
@johanjortso "hallows" is quite a peculiar word though. Almost all English speakers have only heard it in: "Hallowed be thy name" in prayer
@johanjortso ahh book 7: with a word in the title so obscure she had to make up a second title for other languages! :)
@johanjortso no they are completely different. They are soft pastels, largely color-coded after the first volume.
@johanjortso I actually don't think the American covers have all three on the front of any. The seventh may have the others on the back.
In retrospect, the Prime Minister's opening chapter of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is rather clumsy. I don't like it.
@johanjortso Harry's looking pretty hot in that last one. And Hermione looks exactly like a WWII beauty lol

So yeah you can set it to kilobytes and be totally fine but if I can paste a 1080p movie in there we got a problem ;)
You don't actually not want *any* upper limit on user-controlled password length, everyone. Hashing is fixed output but it is not fixed time
@ShaneTheKing and then your backend is DoS'd by kids setting their passwords 8MB long and it has to hash them
@yacCz no, I really doubt it. At that high, it's just a limit so that you can't set rickroll.mp3 as your password...
@ShaneTheKing I think PHP defaults to 2MB or something, my novel is aaaalmost that long.
@ShaneTheKing (and if you want to define it as the maximum size a POST can be without crashing your server, that's fine.)
@ShaneTheKing hahahaha I will paste my novel just to spite you, that's what attackers do. The backend has to reject it at some point.
@ShaneTheKing there has to be a limit SOMEWHERE. And it's usually a heck of a lot lower than 200.

Do realize I am more complaining about C itself than the compilers :)
@ErrataRob @marshray @DrPizza actually Im not sure if they can be in ANY order ie B < A. In ebcdic theyre “in order” with gaps
@ErrataRob @marshray @DrPizza the digit chars being in order is in fact required by the spec by some sweet mercy. Letters are not.
@acklost if you were free to do anything in c there would not be such a thing as undefined behavior :)
@ErrataRob @DrPizza right. Its implementation dependent. Which is different from undefined.
@Tomi_Tapio whats in the shed? Thats a weird place for one.
The C compiler knows exactly what is undefined, detecting it is not a problem. It likes to detect it and optimize it away :p
@techpractical @mcclure111 thats undefined at the API level, not the language level
@DrPizza @ErrataRob yes. Otherwise every character could have the same value and thatd be fine
.@mcclure111 no, our code does not depend on undefined behavior. It depends on assuming its Not Really That Undefined.
Why do we all just accept that a C compiler will probably not mention anything if you hand it undefined behavior
@DrPizza you would not have done well in the wind-up days

@buro9 no, they really didnt. There is absolutely nothing in “string pointer break” to suggest finding locations of characters.

@QuantumG I didn't pick my genes either if that's what you're getting at. But I could have been raised adoptively from day 1, it happens.
RT @blueg3: @0xabad1dea People seem to not understand that it's not about individuals, it's about population statistics.
@QuantumG So, of all possible parents in the world, that the two I had were a favorable outcome compared to average and worst case, is luck.
@QuantumG Um, absolutely nothing new agey about it. I didn't exist. And then I existed. And I had parents. I didn't pick them.
@QuantumG so yeah I'm lucky as hell
@QuantumG it was luck they were *MY* parents. Pure, completely uncontrollable happenstance.
@QuantumG I don't remember choosing who my parents were at character generation
@QuantumG that does not mean individual white kids are not poor. It means there is a system of biases larger than individual kids.
@QuantumG My area was 60% white, 30% black, 10% other, my CS program was ~98% white. It's not mysterious.
@QuantumG and judging by how many children I've seen discarded, having parents that truly care is pretty lucky and out of the kid's control.

@QuantumG and Im a woman. It works out sometimes.
@xa329 @thegrugq what do you think mentors are…
Privilege is not a master on/off switch. It exists on several axes. As a white female bisexual once on welfare, Im all over the map.
@QuantumG in *my* social context, being a poor white kid was measurably more privileged than being a poor black kid
@QuantumG but in the original context, being given the benefit of the doubt due to gender was part of the privilege equation
@QuantumG so did mine, and I put that at a middling rank of privilege. Im thinking of the other kids.
@eevee the math they taught me in school has thus far proven not particularly relevant to programming except this addition stuff
# 369609438849945600
@QuantumG um okay yes that was kind of my point if your parents couldnt afford a PC your chances of being a programmer go way down
@thegrugq @cs_saheel and they all wrote code I can hack with my eyes closed ;)
@QuantumG I was the only kid I knew in our welfare neighborhood with a computer. And now I have a Good Job and live in a Good Neighborhood
@QuantumG I had less privilege than a lot of kids. More than a lot of kids. Its not a binary switch.
@QuantumG ie the problem is getting better because computers are getting cheaper and internet access more available
@QuantumG once we account for India, yes, they are undergoing a nascent computerized revolution, and I am quite glad.
@QuantumG I am not contradicting myself. My father spent every penny he had and some he didnt on our first computer
@QuantumG note: speaking from an American context
@QuantumG gee, why are most programmers white? It almost seems to follow a similar curve to average household income by ethnicity
RT @Roguelazer: @eevee Computer towers are stereotypically beige. White man evolved programming as a form of camouflage in computer labs.
@QuantumG so getting a computer was a BIG DEAL but it was a deal that happened.
@QuantumG most of us in the west are at least a little. I grew up on welfare. Didnt have food in the house sometimes.

@thegrugq I bet your code is nasty
@m1sp true, but Tarimin is not his native language, and Tsovinar notes he should talk in Asram as he sounds smarter
Its privileged because the equipment, resources, and TIME are not trivial costs, and community feedback ie acceptance is very necessary
@M0zilla of course it should be, I didnt crawl through the mud of prejudice for years because I was BORED
Summarizing myself: programming is no more inherently male than it is inherently white. It is, however, inherently privileged.

I've concluded it's simply desperate to avoid the div instruction at all costs and goes on quite the adventure
@guamwatt I promise I know the difference between the opcodes in my own function and a library I didn't link ;)
@meursalt it is clang
Oddly, the compiled output of the C version of my itoa() is about three times as many opcodes as my asm version - even though I wrote both
@0x17h not as such. There are spiritual siblings. But that does not matter here

@mister_borogove I'm not too terribly worried about that :)
@mister_borogove essentially I just implemented a static char buf for this function that happens to live within it :p
@mister_borogove no, it needs buffers right where I put 'em
@chead it is dosbox. And it is definitely taking longer than half a second.
Not making this up. I thought I was going crazy earlier when I found my MacBook unlocked! https://t.co/Jt2ewvgBhe
(I'm guessing it's generating a mouse or keyboard event before the few-second timer for canceling lock kicks in)
Uhh so if you lock a Mac with dosbox open it will unlock about five seconds later thanks dosbox
(or as opposed to my bulk of asm for NES with rom banks, where you also can't do that but for more basic reasons)
It feels so weird now that on DOS I can just put a buffer in the middle of my actual routine and write to it and the OS doesn't care

@SpireSec @monsterlemon there you go mis-ascribing things to me again :) I believe in both freedom of research and pressuring vendors to fix
The psych[iatrists|ologists] all started from the flawed premise that I wanted to be "normal." Oh hell no.

@SpireSec @monsterlemon my opinion that full disclosure is A Very Good Thing remains firmly in place, I assure you.
@thegrugq @homakov actually I just live in a liberal commie outpost called Massachusetts
@IRStrutt by ordinary locks I mean pretty much everything you're likely to see in the real world short of treasury vaults.
@homakov it's just a neighborhood very near clusters of tech companies. Rent is a bit high but not absurdly high.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon so this whole thing was you assuming I'm completely colorblind to nuances? :\
@SpireSec @monsterlemon maybe my philosophy is not a black and white 100% immutable absolutionist little thing :)
@IRStrutt I *have* a deadbolt. So?
.@homakov You're wrong. My neighborhood has as many Indians, Africans, and Asians in it as white folk. If not, added together, more.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon you don't understand the difference between being paid to do a review and choosing what to do with own research?
The psychiatrists I've met were all useless at dealing with someone who was never neurotypical to begin with. They lack imagination.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon how many times do I have to repeat in this conversation that oh guess what the world is still imperfect
@SpireSec @monsterlemon they're idiots who won't take advise they not only asked for but PAID for? That's stupidity beyond my reach to cure.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon and then OH MY GODS YOU ARE SETTING A POST VARIABLE AS A COMMAND TO RUN AS ROOT ON YOUR DB AAAUUUGH
@SpireSec @monsterlemon we rank things by ease of exploitation and severity of impact. It's up front that most findings are fairly minor.
@elad3 yes, and the psychiatrists failed from top to bottom to really understand at all what I do
Now, I live in what you call a Nice Neighborhood, and that itself is a stronger mitigation than the actual locks.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon (many of our customers come to us AFTER they were publicly owned.)
@SpireSec @monsterlemon not 100% of the time. Sometimes we get in shouting matches with them about it. But usually.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon it turns out our customers actually fix the flaws, because they came to us because they WANTED to fix them.
The psychiatrists actually made a big deal about me worrying about stuff being broken into, as if it were irrational.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon My employer discloses everything found to the entity that paid for the review. My personal stuff is full disclose
@SpireSec @monsterlemon I don't know why you'd think I'd think everything is ever fixed. Being vigilant is my *job.*
@SpireSec @monsterlemon World Is Flawed - Perfect Security Not Measurable - Reel At Eleven
@SpireSec @monsterlemon stuff don't get fixed until it's disclosed because vendors are cheap. Disclose, disclose, disclose.
@thegrugq thank you doctor buddha
@SpireSec @monsterlemon "Known" vulns can be fixed. "Unknown" vulns can be exploited without detection.
I have a constant anxiety about my house and car being broken into because I know how !@#$ useless ordinary locks are. No peace of mind :(
@SpireSec @monsterlemon but my tolerance for known and unpatched flaws is effectively 0%.
@SpireSec @monsterlemon and who said there is no threshold of tolerances?
@SpireSec @monsterlemon but indeed, no software system yet devised by the minds of mortals has proven unquestionably secure.

@CliffsEsport I, too, base all my philosophy on fantasy novels (it's true. I just also happen to write the fantasy novels I base it off of)
@CliffsEsport I'm pretty sure I don't have any 6th grade art teachers to oppose at the moment
@CliffsEsport no actually, my childhood access to fantasy novels was fairly restricted.
@CliffsEsport I sincerely regret my past willingness to submit to arbitrary authority.
@CliffsEsport oh, if I had known what I know now, I would have turned a lot more things in late or incomplete, instead of being an angel.
@CliffsEsport I think I am old enough, smart enough, and SUCCESSFUL enough to say no, she didn't teach me anything.
@CliffsEsport she completely ruined something I had worked very hard on and was proud of, solely out of spite. Could have written on back
@CliffsEsport I already *knew* it wasn't supposed to be late. She taught me nothing save contempt for arbitrary judgment.
@soulmech @vogon I feel like you two should probably meet each other
I will never forgive the 6th grade teacher who wrote "D" in red ink on the FRONT of my art project because it was late. Hateful witch.

@SpireSec do you really think I just crawled out of the woods and never heard the disclosure debate before
@SpireSec ........... yeah I haven't spent the last eight years thinking about this or anything
@SpireSec no offense but you're not even making sense to me anymore. It can't be secure if known vulns aren't fixed.
@SpireSec it's objectively *fixed* when the exploit don't work no more. That doesn't mean objectively secure.
@SpireSec the customers already HAVE breakable locks. Criminals already HAVE private research going on.
@SpireSec time and time and time again stuff doesn't get FIXED until vendors have their nose rubbed in it by angry customers

@pkutzner it can be, at times. If your child doesn't generally TRUST you, I think I found the real problem.
@pkutzner now that I don't agree with :)
@RSWestmoreland they don't say stuff like because I said so.
@Kufat six? Seven?
I know I don't have kids, but I've made a point of observing the parents of kids I think are smart.
In the most recent case, what the mom meant was "because it's safer" but what she said was "because I said so"
I really hate it when I hear a parent say "because I said so." That is the least reasonable of all reasons.

@rikardlang there's about 24 of them in that there soundcloud :) they are all plain 2A03, no expansion. Two squares, triangle, static
@rikardlang it's the 2A03 <3 Emulated, because getting the sound off my old TV is A Lot Of Work.
It went away after I gave up and rebooted - airplane mode didn't fix it. But I guess that means it wasn't the feds, and that's BORING.

@jrmithdobbs do you know how many THOUSANDS of real-world buffer overflows I've seen with my own eyes at work? Not "perpetuating" jack.
@jrmithdobbs in C/C++, Java, .NET, PHP, etc, pretty much everything except Javascript, which needed manual prodding.
@jrmithdobbs and I note that this entire process was an EXCEPTION to our usual methods; you never hear about our thousands of routine scans.
@jrmithdobbs it uses sound, non-novel algorithms. The bug was not in a novel (homegrown) algorithm, it was in an entropy failure.

@jrmithdobbs wow, if it is fraud to not find 100% of all possible bugs after saying we wont, the whole industry really is screwed.

@brinxmat but in the end you must understand the remark was playful. People in England in the 1770s stood up for us to the king
@brinxmat yes, that kind of supports my point ;) the first waves, who did the hardest part, were religious exiles, criminals, etc.
@SimonZerafa in the end the bug comes down to where I always said the bugs would be in JS — the genre of casting errors.
@SimonZerafa we dont specifically offer JavaScript line-by-line auditing, no. At least not yet.
@SimonZerafa we did a manual penetration test to verify that it behaved as the spec advertised.
@brinxmat ah, back in the old days, we did it with slavery and indentured servitude (which is slavery with a time limit, for Europeans!)

@dan_crowley and womansplaining will be a good word for the coming feminist dystopia. :)
@dan_crowley and anyway patriarchynormalizationofprivilegesplained is a mouthful.
@dan_crowley I never said it has nothing to do with being a man! Being a man is necessary but not sufficient to be a mansplainer
@dan_crowley and, gods forgive me, Ive probably whitesplained to someone at some point.
@dan_crowley it is something women say to other women, who nod and understand and commiserate.
@dan_crowley The word “mansplaining” is not used as a weapon. It cant be. It bounces off, meaningless to them.
@dan_crowley mansplaining is not about being a man! It is about being a man noted for talking down to women.
@dan_crowley they both are meant to imply theres something shameful about being a woman or being gay.
@dan_crowley because people who abuse privilege sometimes need a cold slap in the face to remember they have it.
@dan_crowley whitesplaining turns up hits on google and of course on tumblr… speaking only for myself, Id use the word readily.
@dan_crowley it is the best word I know for that feeling when a man looks down his nose when I open my mouth. Certain men. Never all.

@MikeBeas @tapbot_paul its not a baby, and the point of regulation is to keep abortions on the side of the line where its not a baby
@MikeBeas @tapbot_paul you ASK for their kidney. There is no reason pregnancy should be different. Bodily compromise by consent.

@GreatFireChina @nytchinese their DNS server is down from my perspective here in Massachusetts
@kherge no idea
This is the third time in under twenty four hours the 3DS has said it needs to reboot for a firmware update.
@scottmarkwell I sincerely doubt they are bothering to record the SSL sessions of completely public websites they can also subpoena.
@mescyn Id assume. But the fact that decrypting things is on the table is concerning :p
@mescyn but its allowed to be kept for the broadest reasons of vaguest suspicion of maybe possibly someday even if domestic
@amazingant Im just saying that the rules say encrypted data may be retained forever until it can be cracked if they want to.
These rules portray encrypted communication as being inherently suspicious and easy to get authorization to store indefinitely.
If the director of whatever is allowed to sign off on multiple communications at a time, itd be trivial to authorize basically everything.
@chriseng and we know for total sure theyre not allowed to sign off on multiple communications with one signature?
@chriseng their definition in 2(i) is so broad that it reads to me like a single sign-off could cover eg all data from a certain tap
@vogon but did you make the gun
@eevee they malign the bit operators, but Im guessing every php script Ive ever written, save the random quotes one, uses those things
@chriseng and doesnt it sound… INCREDIBLY broad? Minding that it may be retained FOREVER even if domestic ?
Please do read these documents — less for the rules themselves, more for the technical practices implied. http://t.co/ZCPzKYsWw9
@chriseng may I have your thoughts on section 2(i) of the second document and the broad retention thereof
@vogon I guess that was his cunning plan
@vogon that graphics design is worth more than $50
Uh hey this document straight up says they may retain any encrypted communication regardless of who sent it FOREVER until it is cracked
@20committee as a technical person, their definition of inadvertent collection includes a huge chunk of all internet traffic.
Note that they say they get rid of “incidental” American communications if its CLEARLY NOT related, not that it isnt clearly is.
Oh hey they list “equipment emanations” under types of data they store !

@justinschuh Im saying theres been a huge kerfuffle over what direct access means and it apparently does NOT mean google gave them root

@justinschuh didnt he leak the Verizon order too? Not a lot of room for not understanding that.

@thegrugq @hypatiadotca @pusscat I expect one at barcon then
@ioerror dollars to donuts they define metadata as not data
Fwiw I dont blame the American corporations for this mess — not when we know that things like NSLs are handed out like candy
@dewitt if its any consolation, I genuinely believe Google puts in its best effort to try to resist
@dewitt what I originally meant was the govt calls leaking “reckless” because oh no people are complaining !
@dewitt you need to get your sarcasm detector calibrated
@dewitt yes, it is well established I am Supreme Leader of Earth.
.@bhelyer context is reporting *true* things (like Verizon Order, everyone can agree thats true and govt is so upset)
Media can only be “reckless” if it gets people hurt. Bruised egos dont count.
@wimremes … referring to the tendency of services to spew identifying data when you connect to them before auth.
@wimremes its clearly casual terminology…
@wimremes then I guess he means “the data returned when one simply connects to an open tcp port”
@wimremes lol context?
@xa329 yeah — dont understand why the GeoIP databases are convinced its in Colorado.
@m1sp_ebooks @m1sp well thats a shame

@raudelmil the US govt basically considers itself to have unlimited rights to foreign data passing over US soil
@jesster_king on the webpage
@siuying pretty sure they speak English in Colorado, which was the joke.
@The1TrueSean @codeferret_ ouch
@The1TrueSean its nice someone invited you to a costume party you dont need a costume for.
@Mudgutz what *doesnt*!
@natashenka !xkcd:standards proliferation
They say they need a “specific” purpose - like “prevention of terrorism” which we KNOW is INCREDIBLY broad. http://t.co/xQUxF62LWP
@nwerneck well, it routes straight across Canada then drops down. But contacting Canada doesnt route through Canada :p
@wrl @eevee Im not quite a font hipster… but I literally cant read ClearType, so its pretty easy :p
@tangenteroja @xa329 the host name isnt in the Netherlands! Its presumably in England but GeoIP says its in Colorado
@PBTender they're definitely from Africa, but I'm embarrassed to say I can't identify more specifically than that.
@PBTender I promise I could identify Greek!
@xa329 I'm starting in Sweden, but it seems everything I could possibly connect to outside Sweden goes through same spot in the Netherlands
I can usually identify languages but the couple of families picnicing out in the yard have me stumped. And their food smells good.
@dshaw_ in my case it was a parody account with like five followers.
According to traceroute, I can get to *Lima* from Europe without passing through the USA, but not Montreal, Mexico City, or San Paulo
@crstry confusing they didn't say londuk in which case it would have been obvious
What the heck, Twitter is urging me to "reconnect with [username], use a tweet to get in touch" Back off, Twitter
@crstry @tangenteroja I think someone's suggestion of Lond[on], En[gland], UK is correct
.@Yirba_ stop being reasonable
@ebcube and the US, is, in fact, a major cable hub!
I suspect the GeoIP is incorrect for that, but that would imply that someone in London didn't know how to spell London and that's just sad
@ebcube They're mostly interested in connections with where servers are, I assume!
@ebcube but wouldn't connecting to Spain provide an overall faster internet experience with fewer hops?
Guess the geolocation of this host's IP: http://t.co/YDHlwz0YD3 Hint: it's a place that can't spell London
@ebcube yeah but... what about all the cables that have absolutely nothing to do with such a concept, why would this one be special
@r4vi I am. We're not *all* monolingual ;)
I admit I'm really confused why everyone assumes that the placement of long-distance cables has to do with language ancestry. o_O
@r4vi I know, I can read it.
@tangenteroja that was kind of my entire point
@ebcube I don't think that's how networking cables are laid ^-^;
@deathtolamo um... none... I just tracerouted from my machine in Sweden to South Africa
@aris_ada @meikk I have no idea, but if it does, why not just alias traceroute?
According to the traceroute I just did, the Netherlands has a direct connection to South Africa??
@tangenteroja yes, that is what I have been yelling at the top of my lungs about for a few days now
"E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?" You're the computer, you tell me!
Why on earth does this ubuntu install have traceroute6 installed but not traceroute
@giovannibajo I consider SSL mandatory, but there is still a lot of metadata, and the US cant simply up and seize servers or whatever
@jgeorge but you know — I have serious depth perception problems — I probably shouldnt be shooting at anything ever.
@jgeorge my father is LEO and a veteran, its not like Ive never seen one :p
@ramonsuarez @treyka well, I did say “help”, its no guarantee. :(
@elad3 my Arrogant American(tm) opinions on Israel as a government are not very favorable
@r00tine though how many are properly regulated? Probably like two :(
@r00tine yes, but its not an inherent trait of intelligence agencies to tap civilian fiber, if they are properly regulated
@elad3 routing through most of those places would already see a lot of arbitrary dropped connections
Of course — Im sure other countries are spying too. But I doubt any of them have as big a budget.
@RSWestmoreland I assume…
@octal unfortunately I dont think theres a good way to route to the rest of North and South America without going through US
@jgeorge the only gun Ive ever owned is the NES light gun
You can help protect your non-American customers by hosting in places unlikely to route through America except to reach Americans.

@donicer @20committee @TheWeek Ive found sources, other than this article, which say its “signal activity designator”
@profoundlypaige that looks incredibly painful
Hey - someone who claims to be former NSA (@20committee) says to read this http://t.co/rpSpy0koSG and it actually makes A LOT OF SENSE
@chriseng but were arguing until were blue in the face about semantics, which is spot on for our industry
@grp and bless their hearts. But the point is more getting people to actually acknowledge that its real and happens a lot!
@matthew_d_green they do specifically deny getting an order THAT absurdly broad.
@grp — through direct communications with employees, *as opposed to* fiber taps.
@grp and thats my point; that “direct access” was taken to mean, like, a shell on the database server, when really they mean it goes —
@DrPizza we knew all of this for ages, really
@grp “Here is a letter which describes what we want. Fulfill it or see us in court.”
@grp Ive posted or retweeted all the links to them myself. They agree with me: they have direct SOCIAL access. Whether they want to or not
Anyway if we take the new slide as being real it seems to unambiguously agree that massive fiber datataps are totally a thing, yay!
@grp and it seems the PPT meant direct access in a social sense, not a technical one.
@ioerror you have almost 44,000 followers, I wonder how much of the internet is within two degrees of you?

@ErrataRob My claim? I didn't make any claims...

@innismir @gangstahugs Chilling effects bro. Even my grandma jokes nervously about texting the word "bomb".
@dijama I don't always agree with my opinions either!
@gangstahugs and congresswomen, and congressbeasts of all stripes of monstrosity.
@innismir @thegrugq by common sense? Yes, insofar as the EULA/ToS goes. By the NSA's twisted definition? No.
I hold this truth to be self-evident: that the right to free speech, privacy, and freedom of association does not depend on geography
@innismir @thegrugq yes, but that's a tiny footnote to the broad theme
@innismir @thegrugq I believe that privacy and freedom of association are *human* rights. I would be remiss not to stand up for them.
@innismir @thegrugq same difference, considering how bloody difficult it is to get in here legally
@xa329 @wimremes we hold these truths to be self-evident, that life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness only apply to people born here
@Mr_Reed_ now that, I actually would not say, as the censorship is active rather than passive
@thegrugq American exceptionalism is so ingrained that many perfectly nice people are confused why I'd say foreigners have the same rights
@m1sp you around to play tonight? <3

@yakushim do I really believe that privacy is a right if I say “well of course not for people born outside of this arbitrary border”?
@yakushim I cant force foreign governments to do what I think is right, but I can do what I think is right: to apply human rights evenly
@kcarmical unfortunately there is no perfect answer as to where exactly the line goes — just doesnt go where it is now!
@tapbot_paul yeah, why not?
@kcarmical transparent, accountable, limited? Or just “we said its legal therefore you cant stop us neener neener”?
@tapbot_paul (obviously some American rights, such as to not quarter soldiers, dont translate to this context)
@tapbot_paul in this context Im talking about basic rights like communication, free association, privacy and being presumed innocent
@kcarmical secret snooping by secret programs for secret reasons == totally invalid and morally bankrupt
@tapbot_paul its not a “right” if you stop treating people with respect because they dont have feet on the right dirt
@kcarmical my stance is theres no valid reason to go digging around outside a specific, documented, transparent criminal investigation
@kcarmical basically what the govt is saying is they would never read *my* gmail, how awful, but my BFF in Australia, fair game!
@kcarmical respecting the basic human rights of communication is not putting the concerns of foreigners above Americans

@Pepyri_ well, its completely unambiguous that Apple can decrypt iCloud and iMessage server-side
@trevortimm @0x17h I have a problem, and that problem is the urge to simplify your statement to not include Skype and YouTube
@Pepyri_ well the gov immediately admitted the thing he published last night was real, so lets see what they say tomorrow :)
@Pepyri_ and apparently Paltalk is big in the Middle East? idk. But @ggreenwald thinks its legit and hes pretty good at this
@Pepyri_ Id assume gmail is easily the biggest, most important, most useful thing on that list (even gets a separate icon from google)
@Pepyri_ as it syncs constantly what you have in the text editor
@Pepyri_ non-technicals are prone to incorrect descriptions of technical capability; but in gmails case that could actually be literal true
@Pepyri_ I doubt theres a unified interface for all of them, its probably very piecemeal and ad hoc
@SteveD3 though adamant refusal is not out of the question given theyve resisted smaller things.
@SteveD3 relatively low volume of private data, I assume.
Of course the PowerPoint is terrible. Thats how you know its legit: the NSA graphics department doesnt have the clearance

@stillchip @0x17h this is a real signal; the artifacts on this radio show as thin lines down the middle of the baseband.
@_larry0 yeah, plenty of apps can artificially generate this sort of noise, but this is *artisanal* white noise sourced from local waves
@_larry0 it's just generic analog white noise, very clean/quiet in FM
@bmirvine too low, you need one of those shifter thingies
I have no idea what's generating this white noise at 74.25mhz but I find it very pleasant to listen to

@Mr_Reed_ ie I am taller than almost every woman on earth. But I dont feel tall.
@Mr_Reed_ it turns out your definition of average may be skewed in comparison to the global population
You better hope I get accepted to Defcon because Ill bring all these radios with me…
@aquavitaecoll I didnt get this to tune into television :) SDR just stands for software defined radio
It came with a CD! Who dares me to install the TV viewer app

@brentrubell as for why unix scripts tend to break on spaces, well. Thats a problem older than most people I know…
@brentrubell you have a space in the directory name again :p
@indrora okay, that sounds like expected behavior and doesn't interact with the core complaint that it's implemented as a fake function.
@brentrubell this perhaps? https://t.co/WMuPYY82tr
@brentrubell @stroughtonsmith it's choking on the space in the pathname. Either remove the space or edit install.sh to cope.
@kivikakk ... ... ... ....
@comex then define a new syntax rather than overriding existing syntax and returning a parse error for completely, utterly valid syntax
@comex The fact that it converts the argument to a string is both a given and immaterial. The point is, it keeps calm and carries on.
@comex php > if(defined(NULL)) { echo "true\n"; } else { echo "false\n"; } false
@indrora Which sounds like another WTF, but this author wonders how does that change the underlying point?
@mof18202 more effective than heatsinks
@comex I clearly use "in my OPINION" several times to mark where I think the underlying design is bad.
@comex what's still wrong? Is anything I said about isset's behavior factually untrue?
Dear twitter engineers who follow me: <3 <3 I rage because I care Dear PHP fans who follow me: >:) >:) I rage because I revel in your tears

@ameaijou I guess "well don't design it that way next time!" doesn't cut it ;)

@anthonicaldwell the NES is inherently tile-based; 60 times a second you have a chance to change tiles.

@thereals0beit … I am very passionate about hating PHP.
@thereals0beit which is fine for native assembly macro wrappers like C but PHP claims to be a gods damned web language.
@thereals0beit it wouldnt be their fault if a programmer had to go way the hell out of their way to cause this. PHP is ownable by default.
@thereals0beit Of course its bad. And they DONT KNOW and the language does none of the many things within its power to help them.
@voltagex the “bad tutorial” I learned from was written by the inventor of PHP. The problem goes straight to the core.
Remember: most of those devs genuinely have no idea what the dangers of throwing GETs into query strings like that are. #blamePHP
@Tesseraction PHP: from zero to owned in more trivial ways than one can enumerate. Theres a reason I preach against using it.
@Tesseraction yes. Note: not literally every single one of these is unsafe. But most are.

@kyhwana that was the only justification I was aware of… she was a bit too sheltered, I think.
@kyhwana the best part is she ASSUMED he did illegal drugs. The shadiest thing he ever did was give a 20yo a beer
@kyhwana this same furry friend of mine also liked to drink though and my mother seemed horrified I would hang out with him
@kyhwana nope, never had a drink in my life
@kyhwana Im not a furry though :p I also dont remember at all why I had a cat ears headband that day
@kyhwana … when I walked in with kitty ears she gave me a look like I said I was gay. But that didnt happen yet.
@kyhwana well, see, there was this boy, who I was friends with, who was a furry, and I dont know exactly what he told her about it but…
@waruikoohii I think she was mostly afeared that the young man who had told her about being a furry was corrupting my innocent youth
True story: my mother found out what furries are the same day I happened to come home in a kitty ear headband.

Oh, and taking a picture on the spot is different from accessing photos already stored. The prior doesnt need location services.
People saying it doesnt: you forgot the instructions on how to make it not do that.

@mike_acton though clearly theyre not going to have any trouble convincing people to trust theyre double-good for it :p
@landley it came out a few weeks ago.
@mike_acton — beyond all shadow of a doubt before they presume to ask for more kick funding.
@mike_acton Ive kicked dicier things for sure, but I still feel that a company should completely knock a kickstarter out of the park —
@Thedeadlybutter I think with Kickstarter one has a responsibility to backers to prove, beyond ALL DOUBT, youre good for it
Should Double Fine really be doing a second Kickstarter before the first one is fully delivered? I realize its different teams, but still.
@innismir and thats 100% totally okay with me. The burden is on cops to be adults, not on children to be adults.
I really love @verge ! The way their web page crashes my iPads browser EVERY TIME has doubtlessly saved me hours of reading.
@focalintent so, about my program that calculates pi…
@innismir what you want to bet a 14yo had no concept that shrinking away from unwanted touch is “resisting an officer”?
@innismir Im not impressed with police who feel the need to arrest every child who gives them lip. Thats all it comes down to.
@innismir and he insists he was busy holding a dog at the time, how else would his arms be? But thats not very threatening in any case.
@innismir and the point is — IN AGGREGATE there is an endless deluge of stories like this; a pattern of police overreaction.
@innismir the police freely admit they tackled him because he tensed up and turned away. Not because he sprinted or punched them or w/e
@innismir yeah, and the correct response is “excuse me, were still talking here.”
@innismir Im not die-hard anti-cop. I come from a cop family. But Im sick of their “everyone is a threat at all times” attitude.
@innismir if they can produce evidence that he had a gun, a knife, or an armed drone, Id be happy to consider he posed a threat to officers
@a_greenberg no name? Is this literally a sample?
@innismir I am far more concerned with what is right, just, and true, than what officers can squirm out of being reprimanded for.
@innismir thats nice.
If you cant react to a teenager shrugging you off in a calm and reasonable matter, you *REALLY* shouldnt be a cop…

@QuantumG it's not about trusting *me*. It's about handling customer-sensitive data. I don't go around looking for unlocked Gameboys.
@QuantumG so do code reviews, audits, and everything else that it's our job to do.

@QuantumG so when you sell the UI warns you that you're selling for 99% below average price but you're actually right on the money
@QuantumG in eve the "going price" for some cheap things is highly skewed by people trying to sell for way too much
Though the scams where they trade an item in exchange for your money AND your item seem to be largely the fault of a poor interface.
Example scam going on right now: "I'm selling for 600 isk each! Below local average!" Divide total by units, they're 6000 each. Duh.
Eve Online: flew out to Dodixie to watch the scammers. Who actually falls for these?!
@akopa it's not haskell that's bad and I know it. It's just that my creepiest stalker ever was a fanboy :p
@rantyben .... *slow clap*
According to the pi calculator I just wrote in asm, pi == 9.909090909090909090909090909090909090909090909090... . Hmm. Might need some work
@amanicdroid you're a doctor so it must be true
I need to glue a sign to my monitor: "if your asm is segfauling and you don't know why, YOU FORGOT BRACKETS AROUND A SYMBOL"
@JZdziarski @comex no, no, the reptilians. (Also, it wouldn't be a firmware patch, probably just a plist tweak)
Hmm you know it's been a few weeks since I've heard about anything getting ddos'd is it exams time or something
@stillchip @schrotthaufen no, it's straight asm. The process terminates and the OS reports a floating point error.
@schrotthaufen @stillchip well, yes, but the wording itself is what I am complaining of :p
@stillchip except I wrote the asm div instruction myself :p

@snrson in my case it went very smoothly as it was actually a summer session for gifted teens
@panther_modern @Private_Dev most either fail out or give up after the first year
@panther_modern @Private_Dev in my experience, in the US, in a class of 20 you'll probably have one or two cheaters, but only at 101 level
And yes, I both taken CS101 and TA'd it :)
@panther_modern @Private_Dev how common cheating is in CS actually depends very much on what country we're talking about
.@Private_Dev the sorts of students who cheat at CS 101 frequently show a startling inability to remember the structure w/o a template.
In this case it was an otherwise complete program that omitted "int main() {" and final "}". That would probably stump most CS 101 cheaters.
@puellavulnerata it's a completely 100% working answer. It just omits main() { } in an otherwise complete file with includes and all.
I suspect some stackoverflow answers contain deliberately noncompiling code, to stop kids from simply copy-pasting as homework.

My asm program has one unit test: did it segfault y/n
@DaKnObCS I know! They won't reassign me their IP block for some reason...
@DaKnObCS twasn't me! however did you actually notice that though :p
@thoward37 they better well read mine. Because my comments are hee-larious.
How self-praising are my comments in an asm program allowed to be? Is "look at that smooth devil" a little too far? :p

@comex then suddenly on Friday it stopped doing that and the VPN has not shut down no matter how long the device sleeps
@comex My VPN used to always aggressively shut down and I complained about it on Twitter a lot

@8bitstatic Skyrim is one of those games thats a five-year benchmark :)
(Yes, I understand that if no one bought new cars, there wouldnt be any used cars :p )
@angelXwind the VPN is completely separate from the wifi, it aggressively shuts down more than the wifi does.m

If you create "aux.exe" (one of the forbidden filenames) in cygwin then run it in cmd.exe, the error is that it violates your trust settings

@ColinTheMathmo well, Im *trying* to break software, its just breaking before that software even runs :)
@JZdziarski its Cygwin.
@nullwhale true story: my cubemate @fredowsley tried very hard to light my ponies on fire with thermite.
@blowdart it's not my fault over twenty years of development wasn't enough to prepare Windows for me
cmd.exe has no idea what to do with this thing either.
@mof18202 cmd.exe doesn't get it either. But I somehow created this file in the first place
@vogon The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
So I can't delete it because it doesn't exist, but I can't create it because it already exists. That's... that's deep, Cygwin.
I think I broke Windows http://t.co/A3SzStVk5e (again)
Well Ive discovered new and exciting ways to break the filename before bit9 even gets a chance to refuse to run it
@p0wnlabs it apparently does, as I get an error in the form of (primary name) (unicode square) (alternate stream name) is not approved
Im probably the first person to ever complain of this: Cygwins bash doesnt support autocomplete of NTFS alternate stream filenames!
@no_structure yes, but simply running them from in bash generates that bash did a no-no
@dangoodin001 clients like tweetbot support “mute” which omits their timeline tweets but not their mentions of you
Bizarrely, the mv command in Cygwin triggers bit9 as me trying to execute the argument, but not cp
@apiary I can compile anything from source and run it but thats cheating

@Zavie testing if one can "disable" it with wax and remove the wax and it will still work
@rob_rix (really though I got it off Ali Express, search netbook and sort by price)
@rob_rix a) China b) your corner store, and also China
@malbolgia it's sealing wax; it's supposed to melt and drip. Didn't go quite like in the video.
Hello new followers. I'm actually a professional researcher. I swear. Stop looking at me like that. You set ONE pink toy laptop on fire---
So when I called it the ultimate "burner" laptop...
@thegrugq @dakami the ocean, I usually see good sunsets at the ocean.
@Souley Classy.
Let's get an instant replay to see where exactly 0xabad1dea went wrong tonight. http://t.co/EGYRMjdEsc
.@_wirepair @IPvFletch I wasn't sure if the wax would hurt it or not. Which is why I victimized the Terrible Laptop
@dipidoo I did buy actual sealing wax.
. @IPvFletch testing an idea of filling a port with wax to temporarily prohibit it with tamper evidence
And yes, I stopped to take a picture of the USB port on fire before I put it out. http://t.co/5OR7lnlSxg
I lit the candle too well and fire dripped down with the wax and caught the plastic on fire. So, hypothesis remains untested
Hypothesis: it is safe to fill a USB port with hot wax. Result: I can't be trusted with anything ever. http://t.co/cs3YlIHTLm
I lit my USB port on fire
.@kyhwana in that case it's working
Bad news: either I don't know how lighters work, or it's dead.
@nikitab sort of... Google "smart book arch"
Good news: I *found* the lighter. He can't impede science.
Going to go ask my husband for a lighter for Science; bet you $5 he won't let me use one without adult supervision.
@_wirepair @jesster_king that reminds me, I was going to experiment with pouring hot wax into its ethernet port tonight
@essobi @jesster_king I think I misread it. Oh well, what's four dollars.

The message sent by “well allow gay teens, but not gay adults” is “were hoping we can straighten you out before its too late!”
@herodfel Im afraid this is an untested area subject to case law. Because Nintendo 64 aint have system updates.
@nickdepetrillo @dakami because its a) duplicating work so everyone loses b) frankly dangerous to not share ?
If I were a kid on a “turn timer” for the Wii-U, 75% of my hour turn would have just been used on that update and my brother would cackle
@nickdepetrillo @dakami and they should be… sharing… that… data…? Why WOULDNT you
@blowdart thats the legendary Microsoft efficiency
@blowdart also “another office move” is the most Microsoft tweet ever

@nelhage the biggest game Ive ever installed was 18GB uncompressed; thats Guild Wars 2 and its HUGE and highly detailed
.@matt_merkle or $500/$600 or whatever the difference would be between “enough ram, enough HDD” and “wow definitely enough”
I guess it just comes down to Id rather pay (hypothetical) $500 for a GREAT console than $400 for a decent one. But Im not 12 either.
@ioerror … sigh
@ErrataRob @DrPizza Ill keep that myth in mind next time Im saving money buying in bulk
@washiiko 16GB would be enough for most games I am pretty sure.
@hackedy not sure if trolling or literal
@ErrataRob @DrPizza (Im assuming bulk rates; I cant quite get a single stick of 8GB ram delivered for $20 yet)

You all have some very strong opinions on RAM
@itsdapoleece no different from now
@CastIrony they CAN, but the biggest games I own are 18GB on disc; throw in some room for growth

@marshray @bobpoekert its 2013, they can put it on their website
@DrPizza IMO refusing to share code freely should be an automatic un-academicing.
.@bobpoekert I genuinely cannot fathom why CS journals DONT require source for anything that claims to have implemented anything
@miuaf also someone once told me that character strings are implemented as linked lists of integers and my face was like 😱
@miuaf so thats what Haskell is tainted by to me :p
@miuaf according to my sample size of one, Haskell programmers are dysfunctional stalkers who are clearly thinking about raping me
I dont think professional programmers are “anti-academic” as much as they are “anti-implementing-is-not-my-problem”
@miuaf @raichoo @darinmorrison that last one was openly hostile to teaching any OS/language used anywhere in the modern world
@miuaf @raichoo @darinmorrison my CS professors were: young and practical; old, theoretical, and wise; or old and living in 1982 fantasy

@c1tr1c @yaakov_h my dear friend just solved this. We are all Pangaeans.
@c1tr1c @yaakov_h it turns out the definition of continent depends entirely on who you're asking. Europe and Asia are not separate places...
@c1tr1c @yaakov_h in fact you call it Mexico in your profile. So I can call my country America for the exact same reason.
@c1tr1c @yaakov_h I really don't get it. I really don't. I doubt you refer to Mexico always as United Mexican States 100% of the time.
@c1tr1c @yaakov_h would you also jump down the throat of someone in the Republic of China calling their country Taiwan or China
@c1tr1c @yaakov_h I don't get what's so hard to understand of "people in (United States of) America refer to their country as America"
@c1tr1c @yaakov_h it's both, why can't it be both
@Phobos_11 @yaakov_h ....... *sigh* we. DO. share. Disclaimer: not speaking for the underbelly of American ignorance.
@Phobos_11 @yaakov_h ... .... .... wat
@Phobos_11 @yaakov_h ......?!?!?! It's our demonym! It is objectively our demonym. It's your... whatever you call a demonym for a continent
@Phobos_11 @yaakov_h sure, great, I don't dispute that.
Programmers always want names to be GUIDs because that's easier to deal with ;)
@cyclerunner it's our historical name. Names are messy, culturally rooted, and not GUIDs.
@vikphatak I think of America's "nicknames" as being like "Land of the Free" or "Droneland" or "Obamatown"
This rant brought to you by the one aspect on earth in which America doesn't get to play Chief Cultural Imperialist ;)
@0XiDi it's kind of like saying "Mister" is an integral part of "Mister John Smith" and incorrect to say "John Smith"
I've been to South America (Peru specifically). I love and embrace The Americas as in this together. Don't take my rant the wrong way <3
@delroth_ it's exactly the same situation! Two places can have the same name. It's totally valid. Geographical names are not GUIDs
@delroth_ hahahahahahahahahaha http://t.co/py8zRTNxiq WRONG
"The United States of America" : "America" :: "People's Republic of China" : "China" <-- stop being obtuse
@delroth_ which usually it's America being accused of but not this time
@delroth_ it doesn't matter. Fussing about what other countries call themselves is cultural imperialism
You all DO know that "the United States" just as well refers to Mexico, right? No, really. Look it up. Estados Unidos Mexicanos.
@vikphatak it's not a "nickname." No-one goes around saying United States of Mexico all the time. It's Mexico except in formal contexts
@delroth_ incidentally no-one in America (the country) calls the continent America. It is called NORTH America here.
@delroth_ I'm sure the FormerYugoslavRepublicOfMacedonians totally get your point.
@delroth_ what about it? All countries' legal documents use the fancy title like "Republic" or "Confederation"
@delroth_ WE. CALL. OUR. COUNTRY. AMERICA. "United States" is a description also used by Mexico for similar reasons.
@delroth_ Wow this is EXACTLY what I'm talking about Who do you think knows what America's name is: Americans or not Americans
@TheEtherDotNet is it historically accurate within the cultural context? then yes || no.
@delroth_ Do you also call Mexico the United States? If not then the point falls flat.
@yaakov_h some people from Central/South American countries feel we don't have a right to use the word for our country
The fact that our country is called "America" does not invalidate the fact that your country is in The Americas. Both can be true.
Pet peeve: being told we can't call our country America because <reason>. Americans may be arrogant people but don't deny us our actual name
@m1sp you should get on a chat of some sort!!
@Ricky4fun North America and South America are continents. America is a country in North America. Its citizens are called Americans.

Apparently my husband packed Guild Wars 2 with the Wii games because it has a white case. I think hes racist.
@ivanca homoPHOBIA is being upset that two people who APPEAR to share a gender are engaging in sexual attraction.
On my quest to find the game controller, so far Ive found: a hitachi hard drive dated 2006 lying loose with Wii game disc boxes
@katzmandu I dont know. I have only ever used a GameCube controller. But now we have a Wii-U sans GameCube ports :(
DH and Roommate are at the movies. Im hunting for our classic controller for Wii so I can play Super Smash Bros… got a new disc.

“If you are sitting exactly on the equator or prime meridian, make sure you use a float 0.0 rather than an integer 0”
@LJonhny oh, it is the prior… so I guess that will actually return zero rather than crash
@LJonhny strlen() can return zero in getKey but itd take some work to actually put yourself in that situation
@LJonhny theres technically a divide by zero possibility but w/e. other than it leaving behind forensic evidence, it looks fine.

@ivanca going to the war is the most horrible thing in the universe and no human being of any sort should ever be subjected to that

@xa329 actually it's because I was trying to find a video in Dutch once, I think, and went to the Dutch youtube.
Also, I like that the "get started" button in the Dutch interface can be literally translated as "to the battle!" #excitableidioms
Of course, now Youtube thinks I'm British and I assume recommendations will start learning Dr. Who-ish.
@RvMouche ik spreek een beetje, maar ik wil mijn Engels :)
Huh. Going to the British (not USA/generic) youtube domain fixed it back on the generic domain. Hello again, English! h/t @therulerofchina
@therulerofchina wow that worked
So my youtube interface is in Dutch on ONE particular computer for no particular reason and no apparent way to switch it back.

Ive obtained a copy of my NES talk, but Im told the audio is Maybe Not So Good.
Why does Preview.app even register as a handler for XLSX if it's just going to hang or crash every time I try to open one?
@henmob it largely comes down to a) have a healthy skepticism of free programs found online b) keep your OS and browser up to date
@ivanca if you really don't get it, we don't have much to discuss. Ten. thousand. years. of recorded history of patriarchy.
And I use the word "several" because even security-wise people catch something occasionally. It happens. It just shouldn't happen a lot.
Consider "knows how to NOT catch malware on work computers several times a year" a basic requirement for any desk job. For serious.
And of course it's one of the "usual suspects" for catching malware. Don't let your organization *have* usual suspects. Teach them something

Its not traffic reports, wrong time and place; its not a news copter afaict, no news; circles low repeatedly; navy blue and yellow.
I saw that colorful helicopter again today; once is odd but twice is concerning, IMO. What *are* they doing so low to the ground?
@onekade @puellavulnerata unfortunately I havent been able to get a clear view of the tail number to look it up; could be normal stuff.

@mescyn “it was removed because <sensible reason> and wont come back because <sensible reason> sorry, <suggested workaround>” <— good
@mescyn no rationale. User hostile.
@artkiver … that is the most “and this is whats wrong with open source” comment imaginable ;)
@mescyn um, its like no one read the actual ticket and the actual response ! Its the most straightforward non trolling ticket imaginable
@dhicynic @dylanmccall it isnt ?
@elad3 open source has a social problem; success is contingent on not brewing community upsets like these
@elad3 yes, step 1. Theres an ordering dependency.
@elad3 I didnt say theyre evil, just that no wonder folks say “my feature disappeared and GNOME is less useful to me now”
@elad3 Look at the actual ticket. Look at the actual response. All ranting came after that response.
Also, dont miss the fact that GNOME is an actual foundation, with finances, not a hobby developer github account ;)
@elad3 but gnome is not a hobby project. They are a *foundation*. They have *money* and everything.
@elad3 valid argument for hobby side projects with a few thousand users or less!
@furicle that ticket is from a few weeks ago. Then someone posted it to HN and the fuss started. But its a righteous fussing IMO.
@elad3 @dotstdy what the feature is or how useless it was is completely tangential from the actual problem
I dont care if its the stupidest feature in the history of the universe, thats not professional behavior. End open source rant
@elad3 yes, I already read it
From the G+ thread: user is “irrationally attached” to feature that disappeared without explanation and devs wouldnt give explanation.
@dotstdy @elad3 and… why not just like… say so?
Now, offering an actual rationale for why a feature was removed when someone opens a ticket (or linking to one) would be… better.
I dont care that theyre “open source”, if they want to be a real project then they gotta not close “where did my feature go” with “no”
@elad3 strongly disagree. They are a *community* project. “No. *wontfix*” is completely anti-community
@dylanmccall … and sure its freeware, but its positioned as a serious product, ergo the users are customers.
@dylanmccall “where did my existing feature go?” “Wontfix” nope, thats the most rude-to-customers thing a programmer can possibly do

@ae_g_i_s there are a few cat breeds like this too, like the Persian in that article.
@ae_g_i_s — certain bloodlines reached critical mass of certain genes ie fixation, but the species itself isnt changing.
@ae_g_i_s evolve isnt quite the right word, its just that their mating has been closely regulated by humans for a few thousand years and —
Why is it we can celebrate the uniqueness of minor deformities in cats ( http://t.co/QXbtxsGMuo ) but treat it as a tragedy in humans?

@puellavulnerata unfollow bug struck sorry D:
@wimremes so did he… what a funny religion, always looking for things to feel guilty about.
@xa329 well, newer versions of windows CE do in fact support .net, its a light .net that doesnt have everything though

@CDA @mikko where might I find this certificate installer?
@elad3 @0x3a @mikko it does a soft check client side but lets me submit, then the server either returns an error or silently rejects it
As best as I can figure, twitter has/had a bug with normalizing a unicode percent sign to ASCII and not escaping it, lulz ensued
@elad3 @mikko @0x3a Im betting there is/was a bug where that was normalized to an ASCII % and not escaped
@mikko @elad3 @0x3a I bet it has something to do with that fancy unicode percent, ٪ , but I still cant repro.
@JZdziarski @CDA Chrome allows arbitrary sites to register for pinning, especially google. And Twitter official apps definitely use it
Seems the unicode girls profile is no accessible on web. Not sure if they fixed bug or I just cant repro @mikko http://t.co/hSXCsYecMV
@JZdziarski @CDA and pinning has been widely implemented as a direct response to Irans abuse in the past
@JZdziarski @CDA of course, but the cert would still be *different* than it was before, and that cant defeat pinning
@mattblaze I just quoted the guy and let it stand- but my gut tells me its either true or they want us to think its true and “behave”.
@kivikakk @m1sp good noon <3
@marginoferror @mikko she used to have an ASCII username so I am betting the validation bug is in username *change* code somewhere
@elad3 @mikko no I tried that too. Perhaps relevant is that it keeps giving me the mobile site in English after I set profile to Arabic?
@JZdziarski @CDA you cant “not know” about being asked to install a new root CA. Its not a silent operation on any OS.
.@mikko I cant figure out how she(?) did it- I registered an account, set it to Arabic, and tried to change my username, no repro

@kragen stuff like len(list) instead of list.count or similarly named member variable. Like, you call that object oriented?

Language defenders stand down! I don't hate python. I just keep having to look stuff up because it doesn't work as I assume.

@tapbot_paul not to *use* anyway! The spirit of the comment was to teach the taste of abject failure.

@dfranke the prior is kind of too likely to lead to the other. Dont teach small kids to use death machines. Small kids are dumb.
@greg311 my cousin-kid doesnt get to use real guns yet but there are real guns in his general vicinity and theyre glamorized to him

@uppfinnarn in this case I was talking to someone targetting Wii and it turns out the stack is measured in tens of kilobytes haha
@uppfinnarn and modern compilers may try to warn you when they can detect that you're unambiguously going to blow it
@uppfinnarn it can cause bizarre memory corruption but if you're compiling against a modern x86/x64 the stack is fairly large
Q: How can I know when my C program is going to exhaust the stack? A: It's platform-dependent and arbitrary! Have fun.

@kragen … and Im one of the only people whos looking at older entries on a frequent basis.
@kragen many gigabytes per day. Were not a storage company, we dont buy terabyte drives in bulk…
@kragen in practice it doesnt take more than a few minutes when I need one regenerated, its just a task flow interruption…
@kragen we generate many gigabytes of character search data and delete ones that havent been accessed in a while for basic cost reasons
@Neostrategos @chadwik66 as long as “I hate it!” counts as constructive criticism ;)
@arcticf0x thank you, every now and then I get in the mood to redesign it :)
@chadwik66 I am both !
@chadwik66 wheres mine?! :(
Production servers “should be” running tripwire-like tools, but theres no point in being surprised that most dont. (Re: Apache hacks)
A significant portion of my life is waiting for databases to regenerate discarded character indexes for text search
@tufts_cs_mchow @chriseng nope, I lack the manual dexterity to be a motherboard junky. Its @CaucusRacer
@chriseng I have an incredibly vague memory of my fathers original Nintendo but “my” Nintendo was a top loader #young

@DarrenPMeyer huh… they didnt have that when I needed them!
@DarrenPMeyer afaik there is no amazon basics lightning cable? That one is fraying too.

@AtheistLoki for the record Im not in the habit of attending events which are targeted specifically at my gender though
@AtheistLoki yes but sometimes its “a problem caused by a few jerks” and sometimes its “institutionalized prejudice”
@AtheistLoki the bitterness may occasionally leak.
@AtheistLoki my entire life story has been that of being pressured to “tone down” or outright conceal my gender if I want to be “accepted”
@AtheistLoki my entire life story has been that of being pressured to “tone down” or outright conceal my gender if I want to be “accepted”
@AtheistLoki ever been a woman at a predominantly male conference? Ever been told to stop dressing/talking like a girl because its weird

@addelindh @csoandy anonymous remailer server. They want the logs so of course they just seize the machine.
@ternus situational irony, get with the times
@csoandy Im referring to email servers being seized because of a bomb threat sent to a university
@ternus @timapril why would you do that
Sounds like its a generational thing re: calling in bombs. Modern terrorists have no manners.
Im being flooded with answers that the IRA does this. Im clearly Irish by blood only.
@PwnieExpress you know… posting bitly links with no context makes you look owned.
Has there ever been a “bomb threat” which was followed up with an actual bomb?
@comex America is definitely not the worst country on the internet but dont fall into complacency 😤
@comex theyve granted retroactive immunity to companies that facilitated illegal wiretapping, etc
@comex yeah except theyre just going to try and try and try again with slightly different bills broken into smaller pieces
@mescyn Iran ******
@mescyn especially since Google started pushing the concept of pinning after Iraq tried something like this
@mescyn they probably do, but you cant just arbitrarily replace Verisign and Thawte certs of major sites and expect to not get caught

@vogon Im talking about ways to arrest an unpopular-with-government person on a technicality
@vogon youve seen the proposals to start taxing it right? But Im bit talking about caring about bitcoin itself
The fact that arbitrary stuff can be encoded into blockchain is just begging for a censoring gov to arrest bitcoin users for distributing CP
@techbytom its a (non-scientific) poll, not a statistic :)
@pzmyers @AtheistLoki gosh, a conference where most attendees are men or pressured to act more mannish to fit in? Unheard of!
@maradydd @travisgoodspeed in the mean time its a glaring attack vector to enable governments to nab people on a technicality
@techbytom but thats whats on the table - possibility of legal repercussions/fines for failure to facilitate wiretap.

Nothing like an incredibly vivid nightmare to start the day
@no_structure Id like to think this is a current screenshot, and it thinks you want those guys so bad youll buy a 2008 calendar to get em.

@MarioVilas so I just noticed your name in this code...
.@glyph ah, I found the problem: # by 0xabad1dea 2013
@glyph gremlins. Gremlins everywhere.
@ColinTheMathmo a parser called pefile... first I wasted a lot of time trying to 2to3ify it.. gave up... random errors... now it works.
@ColinTheMathmo well for the record, my program is literally *one line long* at the moment - all these problems have been peripheral.
@ColinTheMathmo also why do you assume I'm not trying to learn python
@ColinTheMathmo my problem isn't python. It's modules causing frustrating error messages when I try to import them.
.@MarioVilas oh, NOW it works. So you know what? I have no earthly idea what was causing the error. *headdesk*
@rantyben I'd be writing this in Ruby if I thought it were more practical...
.@MarioVilas "exe = pefile.PE("file.exe")" does not work, "pe = pefile.PE("file.exe")" does... it is beyond my mortal ken why.
@chriseng libraries...
omfg python why does the success of finding the class hinge on what I name the variable I assign it to this is terrible
Looks like I may have to give up on Python 3 entirely and use Python 2. Come *on*.
@Brian_Sniffen nope, uninteresting to me :p
@yacCz however it wants? Any internally consistent behavior is fine... I just don't want a hard error for a pedantic warning.
TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation - Python it's really astounding you think igaf
I'm so glad 2to3.py doesn't rewrite string.lowercase to string.ascii_lowercase, it really improves my day to do it by hand.
@cirdan12 false analogy

@lukegb that's the point!
@geekable You can even play fort mode, retire your fort, start adventure mode and go plunder it
@Saturn500Jared I play far too slowly to livestream. I'm often doing other things at the same time.
@geekable there's adventure mode which plays like nethack except across a world with towns and npcs who might come with you as meat shields
Hmm... next time I play DF, I should make a tumblr for liveblogging it, to avoid generating ten thousand tweets about wooden artifacts
@theROPfather nope
There outta be a law against "shuffle mode" in music players that doesn't remember what nodes it's already visited
@garlimidon I suspect you're biased ;) actually I like Fire Emblem, but I'm not very good at it.
@sergeybratus haven't heard of it actually
And I love games like Dwarf Fortress because the complex simulation interacts with imagination to create rich narrative on the fly
@sergeybratus however, the puzzles themselves did not really hold my attention, though I recall trying to brute force a few.
@sergeybratus Myst has a narrative - I was 7yo the last time I played it but I remember the letter to Catherine clearly.
I've never enjoyed puzzle games, board games, and card games, as they generally lack narrative/character with motivation
@DanielFairchild that's the joke ;) this thing is terrible.
@LowestCommonDen and the 10s.
@themarkcaudill alternatively, look at a block of text and partially cross your eyes, letters that stand out need work.

I've heard "gonna forge your signature" from several people but my "real" handwriting is not very font-friendly.
@Strongdave depends on the definition of "precious" you suppose me to be using :)
@lukegb I have genuinely never once seen a font that exhibits the procedural characteristics of my handwriting
@CafieroCarlo http://t.co/C51mR8ljMj but the joke was malicious TTF files
@lukegb good luck, as I can't possibly express my actual handwriting in TTF
Oh these apps in the security section of the Windows 8 store are just precious
So how many of you installed my handwriting TTF? No reason just wondering. 😇
Apparently Norton has a free app that will scan my twitter timeline for malicious links. Joke's on them I distribute these on purpose!
I'm installing a free Windows 8 password manager that uses unspecified "best encryption techniques". We shall see...
@verticalblank my brother and husband are perplexed why I refuse to play it anymore frankly a decade of losing is sour...
@verticalblank it's balanced towards something I don't have because I have never once in my life won Mario Party
@_booto ... why? You're just trying to drag an analogy too far...
@_booto three strikes does not end the game, it ends the turn
@_booto but my point is that a lot of early games were designed for maximum quarter expenditure not maximum enjoyment
@_booto I can't think of any outside of permadeath a la D&D which is "gritty realism"
(Or used to cover up the fact that the game itself was about an hour long.)
Games are "too easy" these days because they give you infinite lives? Finite lives was an invention for pay-per-play arcade games, you know.
@rantyben @cyclerunner @ErrataRob I'm glad this resolved itself while I was busy watching Mario Party videos.
@_larry0 @spacerog as long as its one of those camps with electrical hookups! Magfest did this and it was a lot of fun
@da_667 if so, only to avoid having to write correct AI for so many different games…
Watching more “Luigi Does Nothing” videos, my negative feelings towards Mario Party are confirmed. Too many minigames not enough playtesting
@ternus jay-z just how far did you go
@justinschuh you be good to him!
@wimremes wasnt me!
@_____C oh, you misunderstand - theres no such thing as a minimum wage programmer afaik. Im talking threat model.
@_____C on the whole theyre not familiar with words like “misgendering” so I wouldnt interpret that as a literal quote ;)
@_____C anyway its 2am and Ive reached my burnout point :)
@_____C theyre people who went out of their way to tell me to be quiet and take being misgendered like a man. I dont owe politeness
@_____C theyre not my friends, I dont have to handle their feelings delicately
@pokemon_ebooks does Johto have no laws on tampering with historical artifacts?
@_____C this whole thing was in *response* to people so I didnt have to address them all individually.
@_____C I did try to mention repeatedly that it's subconscious / unintentional most of the time. But that doesn't make it okay.
@grp just as long as you don't species-deny any craftsquid.

@comex way to be an ally
@comex it's your convenience to feel that way... as it doesn't really affect you.
@comex because it feels like they couldn't waste the nanoseconds it would take to use inclusive language because who cares right
@comex what do you say to the idea that I really am personally offended when I look at a job opening I'm interested in and I see "he"?
@tanonev officer? idk I have mixed feelings on them to begin with
@comex I'm not sure if you're using "that" to mean "I think that" "tumblr is stupid" or "I think this particular tumblr" "is stupid" -- ah
@segfault314 the "radical" may or may not be dripping with sarcasm

@benwmaddox other people have asked me the same question and it seems to come down to "not really".
@tufts_cs_mchow @523 yup
@ErrataRob it's a) a huge portion of repliers b) making fun of someone without attribution does not imply making fun of EVERYONE.
@longobord @maradydd @sergeybratus then you use it as an adjective, a fellow person, and, more subjectively, "engineering fellows" or w/e
@ErrataRob I'm just repeating the mansplainers :)
@longobord @maradydd @sergeybratus "guy" is kind of like "fellow" in that respect
So, "craftsman" is gender-neutral because a) historically all-male academic organizations say so b) it's shorter. Good to know.
Where's my radical feminist badge huh
@miuaf I just figured you were a meowth with a lisp.

@sergeybratus I'm exempting non-native speakers from rigorous Not Offending Me, don't worry.
@ternus I'm definitely a downvote on "chick" but only because I usually only hear it used as "So some chick <something annoying>"
@ternus I also accept "girl" as I look/act/think quite young :p
@ternus I prefer to be referred to with terms such as seneschal and harbinger
Brilliant analogy via @miuaf whose handle I someday hope to learn to pronounce http://t.co/AJ2cJ4sUz2
@miuaf @thegrugq oh bloody brilliant I was just trying to think of how to fit in an analogy like that into a tweet...
If you think man/guy/dude is not a gendered word, there's about a 99.95% chance it's your gender.
@thegrugq @Dan2552 what consensus? There's only consensus if you just ignore all the people complaining about being misgendered
@thegrugq um, okay, so? It isn't a word because of historical oppression of women seeking alternative employment to housewifery
@Dan2552 @thegrugq I mean would you be okay with just calling everyone a craftswoman and telling guys that's not gendered
@Dan2552 @thegrugq No offense but that's because craftsmen used to be all men and men often don't stop and think about the implications
.@thegrugq the point is people carelessly use gendered terms without considering how absurd it'd be to use the inversion.
@theROPfather my schools had men as teachers? But that's still misogyny if a man is shamed for acting womanly.
@send9 I prefer "they" but some people believe that English is in some kind of stasis and that's Bad Grammar.

@Tomi_Tapio @BenLaurie except thats so stunningly ineffective that you are just wasting everyones time and money
@grp it runs Android. Its an Android product. And Android, like all operating systems, adds features, patches bugs, and improves snags.
@grp well, Google is pushing it as a flagship product so its embarrassing its two major releases behind

@Dan2552 the virtual keyboard on the tablet is too large for my hands and I mistype practically every other letter.

@glassresistor @evilbluechicken you don't "log in" with Twitter integration on iOS
@_printf I got mine from http://t.co/QxC49FMDg5 they're currently out of stock of the exact one I got though.
.@evilbluechicken the joke is I've seen several accounts "compromised" by their children posting achievements from tablet games recently
@chort0 the count++ wrap is real, there's also a matching count-- wrap afaict, which looks weird, like, they log it then let it wrap?
@feoh your geolocation on twitter is probably a little off then :)
Evidence is mounting that the greatest risk to infosec Twitter accounts is Angry Birds Threat. Chroot your children
@matthew_d_green do you… have… kids?
@chort0 hang on gonna go grab the source and just look at it...
@chort0 usually a scam would come with, like, a fake exploit?
@oh_rodr futurama-squint.jpg Not sure if theyre completely misunderstanding how this works… or I am
@chort0 I uh, did see a random nginx site that had apparently crashed a few minutes ago, but probably just chance…
@oh_rodr err… cant log, or shouldnt?
@chort0 what did I miss
@dildog @focalintent false: @focalintent has a stripe of red dye in his hair

@mister_borogove as in, I have played against humans who lost all 5 lives to getting caught under the stage as in the last clip. Stage wins.
@mister_borogove they did patch that up quite a bit in the sequel; but players do that a lot too on the stages they chose for the demo.
@mister_borogove and clearly, the AI is reactive, so the player is not giving it input and it just does whatever
@mister_borogove this game has been poked and prodded for a decade. They carefully aligned matches with specific variables to cause this
How on earth did "human resources" become the unironic, accepted term
@jesster_king you assume OP is a good man!
Hmm, I guess the "anonymous" complaints are routed through a third party who transcribes them - I guess that's close enough.
@invalidname @mojinations California? Never heard of it.
@mojinations this is about fraud etc. not harassment, actually - not that there's any incidents of such so far that I'm aware of
@Neostrategos consider if a man with a swoon-worthy Polish accent filed a tip...
@mojinations guess I'm a stickler for "anonymous" in the cryptographically secure sense
Anyone see a problem with an "anonymous concern phone number" for a company with <= 200 employees?
The only winning move is not to play, because the AI gets really confused when you stand still. http://t.co/Cv8ZXEp4i7

@TheDaveCA nope he's gay
@raudelmil six bitcoins!
@blowdart I don't say it THAT much!
@deepthoughts10 @netbus @mikko the whole system is actually a complete train wreck that's massively insecure
@ternus no he's gay
I'm kind of freaked out by Windows 8's auto suggest. I type "he is" it pops up "bisexual"
@deepthoughts10 @netbus @mikko one's a company that needs customers to trust them, the other is a government... bit different
@puellavulnerata oh oh pwn Java harder
@corpsefilth ... yes
@jesster_king I don't think me throwing around a couple hundred dollars would have a noticeable impact
I'm coming out of the networking closet. I'm infosec-sexual. Infosexual?
Who puts coconut in a carrot cake this is an outrage I will take this all the way to the Supreme Court
@ternus tell @nelhage we were joking about opsec so I sound less creepy
@Netbus yes that, they could ie pretend to be Google or a bank. Not that they would do that as people would find out and be furious
@ternus thanks for info leak
@Netbus @mikko no it means they can issue certificates for any website and the phone will accept it
@BadAstronomer its the new tweetbot, check from web interface

@xa329 thats not a particularly large portion of my demographic. But they called me “this guy” in this case…
@spacerog did you 4square check in or anything?
@twatterspam the good news is that the HTML5 rewrite goes live... tomorrow night.

@akopa yeah - my favorite color is orange but I end up painting everything pink
@savagejen @Neostrategos it's basically Pokemon but you need actual figurines. What a scam huh
@savagejen @Neostrategos they're called Skylanders, you put them on a base and they communicate with a video game
@savagejen @Neostrategos but they're more sophisticated than just being rfid
@savagejen @Neostrategos actually, if there was an easy way to forge the little chips in their base, he totally would

@kilophoton it has a section near the beginning which lists a bunch of terms it will be using and you can google them if you need more info
@kilophoton I read it when I was 17 and mostly got it - it covers probability from scratch.

It wants me to install Firefox 3.5 because it thinks IE10 can't render static HTML4. Is this TCP over time travel?

@whitequark so when I hear “I dont know any girls who are good at computers” followed by being called a boy, you see why Im upset
@whitequark (the literal meaning is to paint a naturally brown fence white, we use it idiomatically a lot)
@whitequark in this context I meant ignoring non-white contributors to history or portraying them as white (ie Jesus)
@mescyn @Neostrategos not a lot of comments on those; it was my Nexus 7 video
@nelhage I decided I dont like being called a boy more than I dont like being called a slut or whatever.
@whitequark especially since Im a minority in my field, it feels like the gendered version of white washing.
@whitequark imagine if people constantly addressed you as maam and lady and little girl. Im assuming youre not gender fluid.
I need to get the NES video from @Neostrategos so I can have something on my YouTube where not one single person will call me a guy

If weve learned anything its that ad hoc blacklisting for important security purposes is a really really bad idea
Apparently wp-super-cache has NOT actually fixed the RCE vuln but has just slapped some string blacklisting on. Good job, thatll hold.
@ternus implying that if I google-stalk long enough I can find pics of you with a ponytail?
@ternus collars. Short hair. Polite manner. Pretty weird, dude
@ternus also did you know you look like a government kid
@ternus I am super sketchy. I am defined by many short overlapping lines
@ternus yes there is nothing typical about that childhood btw did I tell you about the time the Foreign Service didnt hire me
@ternus rural children have much more free reign. Suburban parents are typically disproportionately paranoid, using urban as their model.
@ternus I think youll find a strong correlation with urban, suburban, rural.
@WeldPond @spacerog @dildog @dotMudge way to kill the joke, boss
@ternus I wasnt allowed to play outside all alone until I was 14…
Hooray tweets are showing up on my phone that arent showing up on my iPad. Ffffff.
I have been acknowledged as new leader of l0pht by @spacerog, just so you know @WeldPond @dildog @dotMudge
@spacerog @tmichaels1 motion seconded. Everyone knows I staged a takeover of the l0pht already.
Dont call the person arrested in Australia “the lulzsec leader” as no one has ever heard of him. Just a pretension of his.

Just read a good point I hadnt thought of - itd be cheaper for Intel to prop up AMD than to deal with monopoly regulation hell.
@themarkcaudill hahaha
@themarkcaudill its very rare that someone calls me by the given IRL name and I dont know them - often in an insulting context.
@themarkcaudill well consider this, Mark. Didnt I already lead this tweet with your name o_O
@dave_newton I think I hate you, Charlotte.

@vogon I only even consciously saw a few digits lol
@vogon yes but not on paperwork
If you address a tweet to me, what to call me is already covered ;)
@iRonNCSU what did you just call me in that tweet? :)

@panther_modern some Syrian gang is taking credit but just as likely theyre just skiddies trying to get free attention
@panther_modern I doubt it, as average time to detection of silent compromises is, like, months to over a year.
*sniffle* Why did @rantyben call me a thought leader? I thought we were friends!
Say, whats your procedure for reacting to phishes sent to your people? Probably a good time to double-check.
@ra6bit @donicer wouldnt walkie talkies work better anyway though?
@quine @rantyben @osxreverser yeah I like you too Zach.
@getwired @marshray someone from AP says there was a phishing incident one hour before the breach…
If its true that AP was targeted by a competent phishing attack, then that tweet probably had more intent behind it than lulz.
@rantyben @SamHananelAP ouch, now that was uncalled for!
@rantyben @SamHananelAP on that timescale thats significant - extrapolate if news that it was a hack hadnt gotten out quickly…

@JastrzebskiJ all I know is the bottom is yellow and I think the top was dark blue. They're repeatedly circling the area very VERY low.
They buzzed our office but I can't find anything wrt the police looking for someone. Maybe they're just filming the majestic suburban wilds
@ternus Built before everyone and their uncle carried laptops and phones. Can't be bothered to change.
@rockhopper that was the best I could do from the car
This helicopter is circling outside the Burlington Mall http://t.co/3SZeiOJKHP
Should I be concerned about the helicopter practically buzzing the grass I just saw down the street
.@puellavulnerata can you imagine: "we're picking up the signature of a Nintendo 3DS! This plane is grounded until it's secured!"
@puellavulnerata I would never enable the TSA to be more annoying, but they totally would buy this ...
The winky face is key to interpreting that tweet, y'all
Namely he wants me to patent my technique for identifying suspicious consumer devices like Kindles and sell it to the TSA for zillions ;)
My husband just told me not to tweet something because I should patent it first. I think he's evil
@giovannibajo lol that wasn't what I meant at all :p I meant the typing
Peace is when a temple invites members of another religion to hold ceremonies inside because their church building is unavailable...
@Jonimus well that's what all this Science(tm) is about :)
@ra6bit that OSX Lion supports? :p
They run at the same mhz, but the ram in my macbook and my work laptop have completely different noise profiles :)
@jesster_king she got engaged and she's dropping out of college to get married sooner
@aquavitaecoll yeah but you can just change the strings from "intel" and "intel 64-bit" to "32-bit" and "64-bit" much cleaner
Am I allowed to be bitterly judgmental if my cousin just fell right into the MRS Degree hole? I'm self-righteous I know but come on
@davidwees @ezchili anyway I think you will find this interesting - my 10th grade history book http://t.co/XqDYtlr3OX
My grandmother just sent me a text longer than the iPhone screen how does she manage that she doesn't even have a smartphone
@yyr_ haha I can tell you're not a Mac person ;)
Everyone: I am aware of the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit processes. The "Intel" part is completely superfluous :p
@davidwees @ezchili But if I had to condense what "saved my soul" to one tweet: Astronomy. Not just books, telescopes.
@davidwees @ezchili turns out my core beliefs were actually incredibly stupid when compared to unfiltered reality! but that's the problem...
I'm confused why Activity Monitor in OSX still notates that every single process is of Intel type when the PPC emulation is gone
@davidwees @ezchili oh, I knew from age 6 that Satan's agents said so ;) that is a very long and painful story actually.
THE NINJAS FOUND ME TELL MY BEST FRIEND I --- oh hello third-floor window cleaners
@Abzol you know we agree right? :p
@Abzol thats the point - people try to deny terror suspects (even the most tenuous maybe-suspects) basic human rights
When human rights dont apply to someone because theyre bad, remember, someone out there thinks youre bad.
Hit video game from Veracode: Where in the world is @chriseng San Diego?
@41414141 theyre installing tor, obviously
@davidwees @ezchili there are private schools that teach this. I went to one.
@_larry0 @ternus I think my TSA lady was upset I wanted to do it in full view of the line. Told her three times, nope, here's good, thanks.
@ternus except last time I went through they were so not wanting to touch me that I could have fit a whole soda can (dangerous stuff, soda)
@Abzol passing a raw get or post variable to the system shell
Reviewing the stuff I recorded at Source and I have no idea what talk could have been talking about a model trainset
@nullwhale well for starters, I can't overwrite all 4GB with a new value sixty times a second like you can a screen :)
I can track the exact moment the machine goes into hibernation well after the screen is off
@grayj_ 800mhz because the reported speed of the ram is 1600mhz. My other devices have 1333/665-ish
@grayj_ tuning my radio on AM to 800 MHz and holding the antenna in the same plane as the RAM over it
Got a recording of the MacBook's RAM #AdventuresInTempest https://t.co/9H5wkrOvX8
@fredowsley welcome back. You missed the fireworks.
@skyeyemachine there's a pretty pattern centered on the mhz of my tablet's RAM that appears on my radio when I lay the antenna on the screen
@send9 I went to radio shack and picked up a generic bunny ears plus the PAL adapter for it (they had it in a baggie on the wall)
@rjsalts kinda sorta!
@send9 yes. If its staticky its because of your location / antenna.
Hit the deck! Its TEMPEST! http://t.co/sPHkvHa5Tv
Hmm... do you suppose it's a coincidence I can pick up a faint beautiful pattern centered exactly on the speed of my RAM? :)
All these frequency analysis graphs are giving me the finger

Re: the guy who thought he was a government bank security tester- incredibly naive. Incredibly lucky to have gotten out of that mess okay.
@VZDBIR you need an anime character avatar
@PatrickAK maybe, but I feel like I probably shouldnt be trusted with a transmitter :)
@puellavulnerata Im just relieved the cops actually kept their heads screwed on. Its practically a miracle.
@puellavulnerata and I havent been able to determine why they did so at this house in particular
@puellavulnerata Im aware of one shady looking thing - one house where they demanded everyone come out with their hands up
@puellavulnerata and some people said “no” when the cops knocked on their door and they didnt dispute it
@puellavulnerata Im just not aware of any cases of people being harassed for being outside except when gunfire was in the immediate area
@savagejen @dan_crowley @puellavulnerata so did I! We could all hear on the radio where he was by that point :)
@puellavulnerata Im just saying that the “lockdown” was almost entirely voluntary in who participated and I broke it multiple times
@puellavulnerata @savagejen no, its impossible to get four million people to totally agree on literally anything
@puellavulnerata @savagejen this is what happened: “please stay inside” “sure” said most people “nah” said a few and nothing happened
@puellavulnerata @savagejen the trains were closed but there were people outside everywhere
@puellavulnerata @savagejen you know thats not what Im saying, and that didnt happen anyway
@puellavulnerata @savagejen its difficult to describe, but to us locals this terror attack was intensely personal, not “just” violence
@puellavulnerata @savagejen — but on the whole, Boston wanted them there and they did what Boston wanted them to do
@puellavulnerata @savagejen Im not going to assert they did everything 100% right as thousands of people were involved —
@puellavulnerata the search actually wasnt nearly as invasive as twitter thought. On the whole they actually remembered to knock and ask.
@puellavulnerata the entire city never shut down. I was there. It didnt happen.
@0x17h chiptune aint midi yo
@savagejen Trying to decide if this is a pun or you havent noticed all the boys Ive been hitting on over twitter :p
@0x17h chiptune privilege: watching this and thinking “well duh”
@savagejen what does that make a dry atheist
@m1sp @JackLScanlan Im struggling to imagine why they care, but who am I kidding
@_larry0 today in “images that make no sense in thumbnail view”
@spacerog “hmm, I could totally copy paste that 140 times. No, I wont, I wont be that obnoxious”
Leave it to the FBI to screw up good intentions
@m1sp incidentally Ive been feeling really limerent
@m1sp I think you are the only person who has caused me to look things up in the dictionary in the past year
@m1sp are you breaking Microsofts heart
@gsuberland geez he went right back to eating his pizza theyre not 100% overreactive 100% of the time :p
Achievement unlocked: got a funny look from a cop re: my touchscreen radio
Not getting criticism on BBC that Suspect 2 is "only" 19yo and hence not dangerous. That's an adult. And near his physical prime.
Awesome if I unplug the antenna and touch my finger to the connector I can pick up FM music with my body
@themarkcaudill not yet but I will.
@dildog I'm not talking about overpopulation due to completely open doors, I mean being fearful of foreigners on principle
@ErrataRob and I think it's easy to forget how RECENT these events which changed the city's demographics are
@ErrataRob ie I have photographs of my Irish-Bostonian ancestors. My father grew up speaking Italian to his friends in a Boston suburb.
@ErrataRob what do you think the dot dot dot is for I was focusing on Boston's relatively recent waves of profound effect
If there is anyone in Boston who is now anti-immigrant ask them if their last name is Irish, Italian, Greek, ....
Taking my radio to the big city taught me a lot about what various signals I can pick up are actually for as they go live more often
@GabrielGumbs I'm genuinely unsure and want to know more. But I do know the title on the YouTube vid is misleading ...
@GabrielGumbs I'm not going to assert not one single act of disrespect by the cops happened, however.
@GabrielGumbs and almost all of them, it was show up, nope not him, leave
@GabrielGumbs I was listening to the police radio - lots of valid reasons for checking specific places due to the emergency popped up.
"One time our web scanner found a button to send faxes and hammered it. Then there are the FUN customers..."
@themarkcaudill yes, yes, and yes, but as if they got in trouble...
@themarkcaudill it's happened several times. They gave some hick rednecks a fake bomb and arrested them when they planted it
@themarkcaudill just that she claims this is another case of the FBI enabling a wannabe. Ofc just as likely shes desperate for an excuse
@chort0 Ive been to the Chinese embassy - to my surprise they totally owned up to some stuff when political science students asked
@matthew_d_green Im trying to decide if this is a subdivision of bitcoins joke or… http://t.co/IUIwdPwhmW
@secmoose @0x17h @skry @radleybalko Im not sure why that house got searched, unless its because its several adults no kids
@secmoose @0x17h @skry @radleybalko everyone Ive found a quote from said that, in context, they didnt feel violated;
@garywhitta @vogon oh look another childrens movie starring a young man, several assorted male characters, and exactly one woman. Yaaaaay.
At least one case of SWAT team frisking everyone in a house in Watertown- not sure if they had a specific reason. http://t.co/ElRsp1anyN
@0x17h @soycamo I have no idea whats going on here but not having her hair up is against regulation
@ra6bit presumably gotten out of hand if true. Or she could just be desperate for an excuse
@ra6bit she says its another case of the FBI shepherding wannabes until theres enough to make an arrest
@m1sp you are my ally angel
Time to close the tab: “Dope-smoker Dzhokhar” Yeah Im sure thats relevant
@Jedi_Amara thats sexist. Also all but one of the divine messengers in the Bible are explicitly male or ungendered.
@HyShai I doubt they would have wanted an actual explosion if this was their game. But its too soon to know either way
@puellavulnerata @HyShai oh yeah bingo. The one where the feds gave them a dud bomb so they could be arrested for trying to use it
Can someone with a better memory than me remind me and @HyShai of times the govt has aided a potential terrorist so they can make an arrest
@HyShai theres a chance its true as theyve done something like that before. Or she may be desperate for a reason her sons arent evil
@HyShai she says this is another case of the FBI enabling a potential terrorist so they have someone they can arrest
The mother is naturally an emotional wreck right now, but if her allegations against the FBI are true, there best be hell to pay
@puellavulnerata @jeremiahfelt @Asher_Wolf okay, just finding the news articles on her claims now… interesting…
@puellavulnerata @jeremiahfelt @Asher_Wolf well have to wait that one out then since obviously shes probably not at her emotional best
@jeremiahfelt @Asher_Wolf @puellavulnerata the alternative is Keeping Lists based solely on immigration status and we do not want that.
@jeremiahfelt @Asher_Wolf @puellavulnerata also does not seem to be the case? They checked the elder in 2011 I think and found nothing
@Asher_Wolf @puellavulnerata rather someone at the hospital IDd who had left the bag on the ground from footage
@Asher_Wolf @puellavulnerata theres no evidence the FBI knew who they were looking for “the entire time” that Ive seen
@themarkcaudill I expected a quite ordinary looking person. Im just bothered by the cognitive dissonance of “hes… he looks like my type”
@m1sp good noon <3
@themarkcaudill thats not quite what I mean no…
@Hyder_Khan yup Im Dutch-born. Nah dont worry, “they” know where my loyalties lie :)
@Twirrim just scared, and decided to kidnap someone for their car and tell them they were the bombers? Come on :p
@Twirrim at this point theres simply no plausible doubt. He wasnt bleeding to death in a strangers boat for fun
I cant help but be astounded at all the basic, obvious steps they could have taken to avoid being caught. Hooray for catching The Dumb.
@geekable youre trying so hard
@WhiteMageSlave maybe if Timmy put on a hundred pounds
http://t.co/RGaUEqRSUM Im bothered by what a beautiful boy he is
Gods dammit America this is why we cant have nice things http://t.co/puNuHIVvKo could you just STOP SHOOTING PEOPLE
@ternus but where is the silly pic of you inside? Bor-RING
@CyborgCode http://t.co/TnIcgPJZ5p
@Hyder_Khan but it may be a cultural thing that we consider gun violence and bomb violence to be totally different and the latter far worse.
@Hyder_Khan no charges have been brought yet, something can be “investigated as” a terror incident and changed later because of evidence
@FrederickGeek8 like I have a pebble! I was Poor(tm) during the Kickstarter
.@edropple yes, I just wanted to acknowledge that some people near the gunfire were, in fact, temporarily restrained by the police
@rjsalts @thegrugq because we take everything personally
@rjsalts @thegrugq just wrote a ridiculously long musing on this http://t.co/sP0FRN9rhZ it will *never* be common in Boston
Counterpoint, accounts of ppl who were particularly close to the gunfire and told more firmly to stay put http://t.co/f7EfYjWRXO via @ternus
@dfranke so, I think the call to shelter in place was the correct decision even if theoretically he may have been found sooner otherwise
@dfranke and if he had come out sooner, the kid might have been conscious enough to shoot him. Its all if, maybe, perhaps, probably
@CyborgCode its a standard github feature. They have templates you can use
@jesster_king Im short on twitter
@CyborgCode make a repo named username dot github dot com (or dot io) and put an index.html in it
@jcran never let @quine … ? I can think of so many ways to end this statement
@comex thats on the Feds - and the lady who effectively killed Aaron Swartz, apparently.
@inversephase in this case they suddenly showed up like half an hour later.

@SamusAranX no they insert random popular ones

@deathtolamo @profoundlypaige I know it doesn't fit the narrative but cops aren't all 100% total screwups 100% of the time.
@deathtolamo @profoundlypaige and the article ends with the person *emphasizing* he thought they did a good job.
@deathtolamo @profoundlypaige I don't see anywhere in here it says they broke into his house without consent
@deathtolamo @profoundlypaige can you read? he was outside and there were gunshots, of course someone yelled "get down"
@deathtolamo @profoundlypaige stop projecting your narrative. They knocked.
@deathtolamo @profoundlypaige he consented...
@JohnnyCocaine @thegrugq that was the ONE smart thing about this - zillions of tourists lining the streets on this one particular day
@JohnnyCocaine @thegrugq it closed briefly; there were far, far too many tourists who needed to go home to keep it on lockdown long
@thegrugq all of this was stupid from top to bottom - they didnt even leave the city in the huge time window they had
@profoundlypaige it wasnt too bad unless you were in Watertown proper - my managers house was barricaded to keep him from becoming hostage
@profoundlypaige yes I live a few miles north of Boston and I was in the city proper during the manhunt
@profoundlypaige a mix of having been on the radio, following a lot of other locals on twitter, and major press summaries after the fact
@profoundlypaige so they probably have friends but all evidence points to them being the ones on the scene
@profoundlypaige at least three other people have been taken in for questioning so far
@focalintent apparently it was just the drivers own cellphone. They kidnapped him then kicked him out.
@profoundlypaige from our POV in Boston there was suddenly a shooting and we had no idea it was the bombers for a good while
@profoundlypaige that kind of all went out the window the instant they started shooting, thats not “innocent” in any circumstance
@profoundlypaige oh and they told the driver they kidnapped that they were.
@profoundlypaige technically no, but they match the photos, started shooting cops, and risked bleeding to death rather than surrender
@michealc no, see immediately previous RT - marathon bombers stole car with cell phone inside. We all know the outcome :)
Im glad violent criminals are notoriously stupid and dont think to check for cell phones in cars they just jacked
@MarkKriegsman google is commanding me to do the wishing
@sakjur lol nope. Found it though. It was... tucked behind my husband's gaming computer downstairs
Somewhere in this pile of books and assorted sundry is my missing MacBook Air. I think. #geekproblems
@iain_mk2 @DrPizza @gudkopy okay Ive been ignoring this but as if this didnt start with a cherry picked single persons incident
@amazingant yeah thats the thing - I need at least one gap in the perimeter for my experiments, sometimes a big one
@MrToph sir why are you sending me panty shots
@amazingant it turns out its quite hard to block a signal broadcasted from a giant tower one and a half blocks away
@amazingant its sitting in the corner waiting for me to work on it some more, but preliminary evidence is that it will never be very good
@MrToph cyan underpants huh
@Dr_Review … why am I reading too much into a rated-E video game plot?
@Dr_Review seeing as the Rockets have access to the exact same resources and are much older and in greater number,…
@LBontempoNunes baseball bats would probably be more effective than zubats

@markrendle its almost as if were two variations of the same basic culture ;) C&C @DrPizza
@jack_daniel stuttered and stalled
@gudkopy @DrPizza the British are obnoxious and pretentious, but I think theyre onto something with the “not letting people suffer” thing
For the record I dont advocate for any subculture of feminism which denies transgenderism, thats just recycling the prejudice
@bugbrennan excuse me maam but are you aware of the idea that if you dont want to have sex with someone, simply refrain from doing so
@pzmyers @bugbrennan um parson me you do know being a lesbian does not mean you must have sex with every woman you meet right
@pzmyers @bugbrennan …… what?
Now to sit back and play Pokemon Blue like the gods intended. Sorry, BeaCon…
@leighhollowell fffffff-!!!
@pokemon_ebooks but… but… eggs!
@WhiteMageSlave ohhhhh riiiiiiight THOSE GUYS Hahaha losers
@DarthNull thatsthejoke.jpg ;)
Terrorism all over the place, exploding factories, massive earthquakes, the only thing left is a Black Plague outbreak
@panther_modern @kaepora the part where theyre “thought to” have “unprobed” links to “hellbent” clerics
Fox News is thought to have as-yet unprobed ties to a radical editor hellbent on destroying journalism
Check out how carefully Fox words things so they can make accusations w/o evidence http://t.co/M4risIG78J ht @kaepora
@ternus decided to stay home this time, in case the entire city catches fire and floods with molasses
@mikko @mrHithron huh, this got lost in a mention flood earlier… … no, except some people think thats what a DDoS is, but theyre wrong.
@mdowd that doesnt look nearly lethal enough to be Australian
@ameaijou youre a cat
@Hyder_Khan @Omgitstamz the average Bostonian is quite the opposite of a redneck, but theres no denying theres some racists in the bunch
Im suddenly really sad that the time I larped as a zombie was before poor college students carried smartphones
@rantyben well, everything in context
@ternus do you play an elf? I bet you play an elf
@ternus never underestimate my willingness to troll people I like, or to beat them with foam and duct tape weapons

@donicer @GreatDismal duh @jack_daniel
4) subtweet and see if they defend themselves ;)
1) meet someone cute 2) scope out their github 3) theres totally a larp app in here
Its suddenly pouring rain. Considerate of it to hold off this long really
@0x17h people did, nothing happened
@ggreenwald @marshray just because the govt will let him get away with it doesnt mean we shouldnt deride it as barbaric
@Dictum anyway theres a nearly 100% correlation with strangers calling me “Melissa” instead of my twitter handle being obnoxious, so bye
@Dictum anyway theres a nearly 100% correlation with strangers calling me “Melissa” instead of my twitter handle being obnoxious, so bye
@Dictum or burning down cabins or any of this other wretched nonsense. Next step: make sure suspects rights are respected
@Dictum Im a fan of the fact that we can apprehend terror suspects without shooting up old ladies delivering newspapers
@ioerror the only people I can find “cheering” that are professional politicians.
@Dictum there are so SO many recent examples of cops totally screwing up but we have a massive operation where they, like, apparently didnt
@Dictum there are people on twitter who posted they said no and nothing happened as is the law amazing I know sometimes it works
@Dictum martial law is when you get shot at, or at best arrested, for the crime of leaving your house
@Dictum see my previous tweet - house searches were by consent - “seek shelter” was not some kind of ultimatum
Today was a day of very heavy police presence and you have every right to not be cool with that but it fell way short of actual martial law
@thegrugq it wont “keep up.” Weve been in the “War on Terror” for twelve years and it hardly shows up to a single battle
@deathtolamo I havent heard of such an incident, but if it can be evidenced then thats at least one case of the police acting wrongly
@marcusjcarey I saw someone on twitter who says she said no and that was that
Please keep in mind that no homes were searched without consent and no one was arrested for going outside, this actually *isnt* martial law
.@GrahamBlog would you kindly sod off? WHAT war? Is there a civil war on I didnt know about?
People worried about the financial cost to Boston: Boston wants to know if “Zero Tolerance For Terrorism, Inc” prefers cash or debit
@thegrugq whos tried to hijack an airplane around here recently? Terrorists have *always* known about Very Obvious Targets
@thegrugq and IMO taking this Extremely Personally(tm) is a deterrent to anyone who isnt planning on being suicidal in the process
@thegrugq thats true of pretty much any violent crime. If I throw a brick through a window, police will respond
@dani0xE tweetbot
@thegrugq we spend more on storm cleanup a dozen times a winter.
@thegrugq I can assure you Boston considers it worth every penny as we took it personally
@ternus wheres my licensing fee
Crashed for four hours. 700 new tweets. Oh… dear.
@0x6D6172696F is it the bug you and I share where its too easy to cast our names to int?
Our government is filled with festering peat bogs like @GrahamBlog who want to get rid of pesky human rights
@GrahamBlog how dare you claim to uphold our Constitution
@GrahamBlog enemy combatant working for which army exactly?
@miuaf I dont know much about military hardware but theyre the kind that are small as tanks go
The tanks are a show of force… youre not gonna shoot at one skinny dude with a tank in a residential area
@DrPizza no except in a part of Watertown I think. Thats where the tanks are, as if you can use a tank to target one person lol
@DrPizza the trains are down and we are *asked* to stay inside.
We even crossed through part of Watertown and it was alive and well. The crazy stuff is in a fairly small area
Let me repeat because Im still seeing it: the entire city of #boston is NOT shut down. People in parks people on corners cars on roads
I hope I am never so glad to have made it home again. If I see this guy Im kicking him down seventeen flights of stairs
How to tell the Boston police are busy: parked in two hour parking > 24 hours. No ticket.
This end of town is pretty much out and about, the reports that the whole city is "cowering" are false mmkay
Taxi obtained and persuaded
There are a lot of people just now accepting that white Muslims are totally a thing. Now accept most of them are more like the uncle
Why do we even have a street named Laurel? No one in Boston can pronounce that
@kaepora @spacerog many as he is accused of carjacking
@ternus sir are you implying my antenna is not proper
@spacerog it finally did on like the sixth try
Fine, I will see if I can get it on my actual radio, but last night it was too fuzzy
@nemof no luck
Ustream killed.
I may have heard wrong but it sounds like they said the suspect wants to talk to them on cell phone
One thing Ive learned: accidentally leaving mics open is a major problem for cops
Cancel search for green Honda: they have it
@Jolly Id like to think Boston is better than that… … especially since the suspect is literally more Caucasian than me
1999 Honda civic, green, POSSIBLY the suspect #boston
@Ammoniak @savagejen yeah I think its overloaded
(Im super ultra for citizen journalism, but dont try to pass yourself off as the press)
@kaepora its okay, hes clearly whiter than… hrm…
@zeightyfiv @m1sp itd be disproportionate if it was a generic police shooting, but these are bombing suspects, not gangsters
#radiotweeting Dont walk into a manhunt and say “Im with the press” if you dont have any sort of press credentials handy
@ternus where are you going anyway
Well-meaning housekeeping asked if I “know what time that will be” when I said were staying till transport is open
Okay I give up if @j_tsar is the right guy or not, way too many conflicting reports of “confirmed true/false” :p
@therulerofchina Im alive
@perel42 hoping to stave off being blacklisted as a tracking server as long as possible I imagine

@JZdziarski @i0n1c @thegrugq girls are anti-conference she-devils, of course!
@i0n1c @thegrugq Im sorry you must confront your worst fear
@stevegibson @metropolitanrep it shows 5 am for me. Since its right under “Boston” I figured it was eastern time but not necessarily.
@stevegibson @metropolitanrep time stamp on last logged in
@HiveLibrary @puellavulnerata and the city is not / was not on total lockdown. Woke up, looked outside, people.
@HiveLibrary @puellavulnerata just chilling inside because someone nearby is violent with nothing to lose is not stupid or cowardly
@ternus the news says taxis are allowed out again so general traffic movement except for Watertown should be soon
@ternus we cleared it with the hotel that we can chill until the all clear is given, which I assume will happen within a few hours
@evejou @marcusjcarey well thats kind of the correct response when your nephews shoot up completely innocent people
@ternus were still camped out at the hotel, as we were effectively trapped when this started to go down
Their uncle is vehemently not supporting them. None of this “I cant believe my boys would do this” hes demanding they take responsibility
I think I just literally heard the suspects uncle say they did it because theyre losers.
The hotel kindly agreed to let us blow off the checkout time, and theyre keeping their continental breakfast open indefinitely
@cirdan12 regardless of how one feels about guns, the gun one actually wasnt total theatre for once
FYI there are both pedestrians and cars around here, its not like the city is in total shutdown
Apparently Im on lockdown.
Awake. Sirens everywhere, unsurprisingly. What is the sitch
@SimonZerafa good morning from a high rise in Boston
Im not kidding. My manager lives in Watertown. He texted DH that the police blocked the doors to his house.
@jlwfnord @fredowsley with luck we might actually get there by 404 tomorrow. Camping out in the hotel.
The police have barricaded my managers house shut to prevent the terrorists from taking him hostage.
In any case the adrenaline rush has crashed hard and I am once again too exhausted to process this. May the morning dawn in peace
So let me fill you in on a secret. The initial guessing based on developing details? Thats actually what the news *is*.
Male coworkers Ive shared a hotel room with: four (okay, three, if my husband doesnt count)
@jlwfnord (its not the frilly lace up kind)
@jlwfnord back support.
Step 1. Get this corset off Step 2. Dont cut the sleeping pill in half Step 3. ???
@0x17h some of us live here you know.
Our room number is 911. On the plus side the clerk told us not to worry about checkout time.
I admire that pizza delivery car. #boston
Looks like were getting terrorist-proof hotel rooms on corporate dime
@_larry0 in the lobby, but I hear hotels frown on that sort of thing
@vathpela not quite. I can see several intersections but none anywhere near the crisis
I am considerably more awake now… if youre wondering I am still at the Source hotel, up several floors, quite safe here.
Personal acquaintances are telling me they heard small explosions so I consider this verified #boston
@_larry0 so Im huddled on the floor in the CTF room exhausted to the point of tears
@_yossi_ who freaking knows it could be any ol crazy pants whackjob who wants to commit suicide by cop
@_larry0 yeah except he decided at the last minute were not and hed just take us home whenever
Oh my gods I cant even process this Another stupid little bomb Is this real? Not just crazy speculation getting out of hand? Tell me
I am too exhausted to listen to the radio and process whats going on. Sorry.
@maxtch I mostly use OSX which transparently replaces gcc with llvm
@skyeyemachine this is not the face of poverty this is the face of not bothering to get a room
Techno hobo camp, by request http://t.co/aXicQUDIJ7
@Jedi_Amara glad you noticed
@maxtch yes, sometimes and not really.
Doing the techno hobo thing, sleeping on a pile of con t-shirts, hugging my bag of computers, in the corner of the CTF room
@DrPizza windowing… apps… I feel you could base an interface on that… but what to call it
Watching the city sidewalk from the fifth floor, some guy is just pacing and kicking poles. Oh now he's dancing #exciting
@blowdart you and I are on a different plane of concern, the big picture, the corner cases, legal stuff
@blowdart but I feel quite sure that one day soon, logging-into-their-Facebook pranks will be as uncouth as sneaking into their house
@blowdart its in a state of flux. Technology is changing faster than culture. Kids are making new etiquette faster than parents can teach
@ternus oh yes :3
So I just noticed Defcons CFP is still open for a good while and I must be crazy because… …
@codeferret_ then I have no idea why you need my twitter
DH is trying to steal my phone to post questions to twitter so he can “obtain the answer via hacking”

@binnightbot hi! I try. It breaks a lot of JavaScript interfaces :)
@WeldPond if they were HTML filtering server side *anyway*…
@savagejen what What
@hermanos @vogon because we all know 4chan is racist and its embarrassing
@triple5adam well, Id hope theyre mutual, but one is Old(tm) and they both did the girlfriend namedrop :p
I love how our three letter agencies are so drone-happy but flip out when a civilian helicopter does a flyby
My key Source Boston takeaway: two new infosec crushes
@ternus pro
@McGrewSecurity @mikko @spacerog @dotMudge @WeldPond @dildog @joegrand I can confirm this works
@s_bridges @BernardGaynor @0x17h eww, he has more than two children? What a sham marriage. Everyone knows that.
Remember when sites and services not targeted at children had swear filtering? Oh nineties internet
@VoluntaryMan aliens are not currently in my threat model
@ReinH is that a mod? I've always played vanilla (haven't started a new fort in a while actually)
@cybergibbons I think at this point it would be perceived as increasing police secrecy which wouldn't go over well (I hope)
@jonelf of course I'm simply receiving it better, that's how radio works :p
You know what's cool? Knowing there's going to be police coming down the street before you hear the sirens is cool
@cybergibbons @zeroday yes \o/
@mikk0j it's free software called SDR# (sharp)
@thoward37 @zeroday Don't give me a transmitter whatever you do.
Especially cool/funny is that one of them was like "I can't hear you it's breaking up" but I could hear both sides // @zeroday
I think I found a walkie-talkie, someone is asking their buddy where the blueprints to some air conditioning thing are // @zeroday
@blowdart uh, yeah, that's kind of the point. You let your friends into your house too.
@blowdart walk up to a teenage girl and ask to see her SMS to her best friend and her boyfriend. Observe.
@blowdart it's very much their concern. Don't confuse being totally open about some things as totally open on everything
Now we're waiting for that moment when culture changes and invading digital privacy is seen as utterly unacceptable whether it's easy or not
History of security: we gave up on perfect locks over a hundred years ago. The lock-and-key is now primarily symbolic.
@zeroday @ra6bit anywhere in the 500mhz range
@0x17h this hotel has a wireless mic in each meeting room that shows up somewhere in the 500mhz range
History of security: the British thought they had an unpickable lock for 40 years until they handed one to an American. Isolation is bad
@0x17h http://t.co/w48I67n9Qa
History of Physical Security: arguably the first "open source" was publicly funded and released lock research in the 1700s

@JZdziarski I don't really consider "it needs to be jailbroken and you need to know the root password" to be a general iOS vuln...
@judsontwit this only related to on-device stuff, not backups
I like how someone just referred to USB sideloading as "shoving the app in sideways"
@RSWestmoreland @Kufat I think I am listening to some people setting up a stage for a special event, struggling with bulky props
.@torvos ah, sorry - context is iOS
iOS: your contacts stay unencrypted when you lock the device: required for incoming call info
MDM server messages aren't signed? For serious?
@Kufat I can just get up and walk
I have no idea whose microphone I am tapping but it sounds like there's something awkwardly BDSM-like going on in a room near here
@RussMichaels @ternus yes, yes, use gender-based comparisons, implying female organs are associated with inferiority, that'll change my mind

@ternus they kicked me out of the room because I'm not invited so now I'm charging my doom radio at the badge desk ;(
@ternus you coming to the conf now? Going to the Akamai private lunch? ;(
@savagejen @dan_crowley http://t.co/LkS9KRN5Q3
@savagejen @dan_crowley it's passive, my radio can't broadcast
@savagejen @dan_crowley I'm in your microphone intercepting your signal
@savagejen @dan_crowley boop da ba doop http://t.co/qjkTAz6uo6
@ra6bit I found the FM output of the mic in here about halfway between the two frequencies listed on the LCD :)
Never mind, @dan_crowley is wearing a clip-on mic set very very quiet, and I found it :D
I came prepared to intercept @dan_crowley's microphone and he's going bare-voiced

@KirilsSolovjovs fan fiction writers
Oh! I get it. Congress is a social experiment to measure cognitive dissonance
@akopa we have Pennsylvania for that
@rbf_ no, Im not advocating that the president is temporary king. Im saying our congress does the absolute worst job possible.
@rbf_ hahahahahahaha once upon a dream
At this point I wonder why we even have a congress, stupid question I know
@JastrzebskiJ if fifty shades had stayed on the fanfic boards where it was birthed there wouldnt have been a problem :p
Someone writing fanfic means they liked your story SO MUCH it took over their creative output; its probably terrible writing but thats ok
How to kill all my desire to read your stuff: finding out youre a jerk to fanficcers. Looking at you Anne Rice
@amanicdroid what Im saying is: “my dad died in an accident” vs “my dad was murdered”: completely different psychologically
But the human heart accepts accidents. Malice, we know, is always deliberate, we measure it accordingly
How strange that accidents can so readily kill and maim far more people than the most bitter acts of malice

@chriseng so I think DH is refusing to pick me up tonight...
@bobpoekert well if you're on the outside of twitter you will hit api limits if you do anything more than proof of concept anyway.
(Note that the thing about computing relationship graphs being too expensive is from the far side of the twitter API - easier on the inside)
A year or two ago there was someone who tried to do avatar analysis on twitter accounts and gave up because of Justin Bieber :p
Twitter talk: finding bots via relationship graphs is too expensive, especially if you don't already know for sure one is a bot
Twitter talk: machine learning is ~80% effective on simple measurements like how many accounts a potential bot tweets to
Twitter talk: Omniture, owned by Adobe, registered http://t.co/MxS9P295th (that's a letter) to fill your logs with ie 192.168.1.2O7 .net
Twitter talk: half of all bots last under forty five minutes. Most go silent of their own accord very quickly
.@secmoose I'd prefer if someone I don't like locks out their account :)
Twitter talk: there are account brute force tools. Implying twitter doesn't implement password lockout? Anyone know?
Twitter talk: the history of spam on twitter is giant spikes being fought back down, baseline steadily rising, for the first few years
Don't answer that
is EVERYONE who works for Kaspersky very attractive or only people they send to do talks? Or do I just have a thing for foreign geeks

.@jcran showing pics of retail stores filled with tablet displays - and you know theyre not properly locked down
@AsherLangton @flipzagging 4chan is a racist site. No denying that. But I dont think they look particularly “brown” anyway
@flipzagging @blaufish_ its plausible. You dont want all cops at a major event to be blatantly cops.
@flipzagging its all “maybe.” At this point posting their real names, if 4chan found that somehow, would be irresponsible
Having a backpack isnt suspicious. Taking it off isnt suspicious. But when a bomb in a backpack has ALREADY triggered, you check for that.
@flipzagging it wouldnt be suspicious if a bomb in a backpack hadnt already gone off. Were post-suspicion. *Someone* left a bomb in a bag
@blaufish_ @blowdart really it comes down to: they appear to be carrying the right kind of backpack and appear to put it down
@blowdart @blaufish_ they dont even look “brown” to me. From the photos I thought they were white.
@blaufish_ you can just buy clothes like that here, and order a custom badge or nick one.
.@blaufish_ they could be cops who happened to be right there and soon identified as such. Or looking like cops to avert suspicion.
@hackerfantastic (and our law enforcement specifically asked for crowd sourced photos and videos, so theyre looking at the same data)
@hackerfantastic doodling on public photos is not interfering with an investigation
@EternalTodo yes, but that one was called out as specifically what malware checks for, presumably its the most popular
@grp I dont think anyone ever questioned if he did what the court said he did - only a question of how wrong it was. Public said “not very”
@grp their standards are higher than casual internet discourse, at least…
No, of course the photos arent “proof.” Nothing is proof before it even goes to court. Dont attack people in black jackets :p
@blowdart wrong about what? Theres no personally identifying information. Just circles on photographs
“Greater or equal than” is probably not how to grammar, I admit, but that is how I pronounce the >= operator
@amanicdroid well yes, but Id expect that most defenders of any language would work primarily in that language
I found everyone on twitter who would advocate for ColdFusion as greater or equal than PHP as a platform. There are two of them
Nothing is as powerful as an angry internet http://t.co/RTavnuTtHc
@meta_alex youve probably written more cold fusion than me - Ive probably audited more code bases for 0day than you :)
@blaufish_ @chriseng both! SE has a nearly 100% success rate and google archiving is forever.
@thegrugq like was discussed in the talk - for a typical business your primary concern is monetary fraud, not stolen intel
.@ra6bit and @dildog just observed neither of them have ever seen me use a physical keyboard. #touchscreenmania
@blaufish_ @chriseng you can unintentionally leak directly to a real outside attacker, thats often how they do it.
@thegrugq the threat model for Joes Business is a little different though.

@jenniferbn2 source Boston - the American Boston :)
@jenniferbn2 Im at a talk ^_^
Insider threat: tracking geolocation and login time is too noisy in most orgs. Accessing unusual hosts happens. Only worry if ALL are weird
Insider threat: did you know removing an account from Active Directory doesnt kill open sessions? Oops.
Insider threat: leading indication of fraud is multiple valid employee accounts logging in from the same single-person computer
Insider threat: usually fraud for personal profit, followed by spiteful damage of systems, “spy stuff” is a distant third
Insider threat: The more data you log, however, the more likely youre going to cause privacy problems. Who has access, what are the limits
Insider threat: though of course log retention is critical
Insider threat: use “soft” investigative methods first. Dont just start going through computer logs. Keep legal dept involved.
I agree that basic user education is a must even if it can never be 100% effective. Enable people to know whats always a mistake
@chriseng thinking in general overall terms - there arent very many professional moles in the world
Negligent insiders are the most common threat - completely unintentional data leaks far more likely than being betrayed…

@xa329 it is, that doesn't matter
@thegrugq but their announcements are so cute
@brentrubell no, CuteFTP isn't malware - it's targeted by malware because it's too easy to recover the stored password

@burukuru well I was thinking a little more specifically as that was yesterday...
@DarthNull going on an hour and a half nonstop.
@NinRac but that wouldnt be internally consistent with my behavior :)
@waruikoohii also an apartment in your town was searched with consent apparently…
#boston okay Ive heard sirens nonstop for an hour from the Marriott Tremont. Hashtag is flooded with well-wishes, cant find why…
@wimremes meh, turns out subtweeting them is easier

@ra6bit I took a class on terrorism in college ;) #TweetsThatGetMeOnLists
Hearing twitter say the type of bomb, detonated on the ground, is designed to take out everyone's legs and incapacitate them - which it did
@panther_modern the reports are accurate - I was listening to the radio - one was triggered deliberately and two recovered for evidence
@ra6bit guess it comes to "did the malicious actor actually know what they were doing"
Me watching TV: "I know this is America but why is *everyone* fat? Oh... 4:3 stretched to widescreen"
@lil_lost it correlated very closely with the most crowded finishing time last year
Am I crazy if I speculate someone specifically designed those bombs to hurt but not to kill people? Or is our luck just good with 130 to 3
The hotel bar is packed, probably because most places closed early. #Boston
Here I am doing Source Boston setup late at night again. In some ways it feels like it's been years. In others, a week.
@WhiteMageSlave we're fine, I promise! Emergency response has done an A+ job
. @SOURCEConf Boston: they will ask your name / look in your bag at the hotel because of today's events.
@kaepora yeah - at Source
@kragen I live here! :)
We're being searched at the hotel but they're being polite about it
I have the most exquisite knack for unintentional implications in my tweets, mainly concerning my quest for pants
@SabrinaPennello #thats #the #point
@Steve31278 its not a scorecard But if you want it to be, look up civilian and “unknown” casualties in our warzones…
@Steve31278 ha, also not true. But Im not a Christian, so Im not particularly fond of them.
@Steve31278 and probably forgetting all the American terror incidents perpetrated by white or Asian guys with guns.
@Steve31278 again, youre extrapolating based on a BILLION people,
Btw I am apparently going to Source Boston tonight, as soon as I find my pants. Will crash with boss, unless I get a better offer :p
@Steve31278 the west
@Steve31278 overgeneralizing large groups by the worst actions of any member is how we got into this mess
@Steve31278 I wish I lived in a world where that was true! But women are punished for being victims here, and there are feminists there.
@Steve31278 “Muslim” is a vague category that covers well over a billion human beings. Of course there are some bad people in there.
@Steve31278 right, because noone who describes themself as a Christian has ever hurt anyone for hateful reasons!
@LJonhny #thatsthepoint
Oh, Westboro doesnt represent your religion? Well of course they dont, thats the point
If youre going to cite one Muslim as proof that Muslims are happy when were bombed, remember Westboro Baptist Church is a Christian group.
.@Robbie some people were still on the one I was listening to; it gently tapered off to really minor stuff.
Emergency radio has gone very quiet. Hopefully thats that!
@pmocek @ioerror check the time stamps. That was the controlled detonation of the third device. https://t.co/iAzahOnqHU
@PatDollard police say this is a fake story.
@thegrugq re: the bridge it was apparently a footbridge, which makes more sense
@IanAKemp "yeah I'm standing by a blue... a blue... um... !$%&"
@IanAKemp I heard it once - ironically, simply because he couldn't remember the word for the type of thing he was standing near XD
Impressed with the good job responders have done helping everyone get back to their hotels or find the people coming to pick them up
@landley the professional radio stations dont have so much static though - this emergency radio is a mess !
@paisleyboxers looks like hes harping on the fact hes not technically employed by anyone as a columnist
Is @erikrush really a non-parody account? What a wretchedly hateful person.
@CyborgCode but in general, being good at context switching
@CyborgCode well today is a little higher volume than usual because Im in Boston!
@savagejen emergency response is on the ball. After the initial explosion, everything has been about protecting and helping civilians.
I dont unconditionally agree with anyone I defend. I dont even unconditionally agree with myself
@grsecurity good thing I dont know very many people like that!
@thegrugq @grsecurity you never let me get in any fights by myself :(
@grsecurity okay, sure. I think youre a jerk. I think youre rude, arrogant, and trust to technical accomplishments to cover for you.
@grsecurity wasnt involved in? It was on reddit, thats not really how that works :p
@michaeldinn radio
Okay, now one of the packages theyre investigating is smoking for an unknown reason. #exciting
@thoward37 not really a camping out in the public infrastructure kind of place - it was sleeting here like two days ago
@Hyder_Khan because Ive spent the last three hours trying to understand people on the emergency radio and some have poor radio voices
@chronic Im not Canadian or French but that just looks weird
Now theyre going to investigate a backpack stashed under a bridge - I think they said Waltham? Probably a false positive
All in favor of banning people with deep voices from operating radios say "aye" in a clear, high-pitched voice ;)
@grsecurity Actually I was of the opinion you were reading too much into it - upset over points I simply can't find in the text.
@grsecurity (and I didn't feel like drawing out your trademark condescending remarks, that's why I subtweeted. Oh, look!)
@grsecurity you know reddit doesn't send a new orangered when someone edits a reply, right? That's not exactly a reading comprehension thing
@hemantmehta @WBCSays if it turns out there is a hell, its just barely large enough to hold their building.
@miuaf I really cant figure out why hes flipping out at @no_structure and my attempt to ask was completely discarded
@fredowsley everyone from work and our infosec friends are accounted for. Dont use the cell network, use iMessage etc.
@fredowsley everyone from work and our infosec friends are accounted for. Dont use the cell network, use iMessage etc.
@ralpost @Codepope the context was spender of grsec, but it applies pretty generally :p
There are a lot of conflicting reports about the cell network outage being deliberate and just being overwhelmed. #boston
@akopa I enjoy /r/netsec as mostly being a good news source/discussion center. Get in some good scraps though ;)
@xa329 … “spender” is someones name in this case ;)
Like is there some rule that you cant be a major open source contributor without being incredibly hostile to anyone who has different goals
Back to infosec drama: spender will quietly move goalposts if you call him out on being a jerk. And signs his reddit posts for some reason
@ra6bit I suspect its that nothing youd consider a “burner phone” works on LTE so they didnt bother.
Based on people saying they DO have service, they apparently think no one would buy an LTE phone for their bomb ;)
@rgov @1DScoop theyre clearly excitable, but they are not the OP of the image, it went viral, cant find the source for sure.
@rgov so I'm all for having a high level of taking-stuff-seriously until we know for sure we have a solid lead
@rgov usually there's a rash of false positive bombs after a bombing, but this one has had a rash of actual true positives;
@rgov there is of course every chance in the world its a photographer or spectator, but still interesting enough to check out.
@rgov itd only be paranoia if nothing had happened and one was worried abstractly about someone on the roof being suspicious.
(The person on the roof could of course just be a photographer, that's a reasonable thing to do. But still a good lead...)
Sounds like they can't get the people coming from New York patched into their comms systems?
@dridus http://t.co/Y3NooCLtJV I could get out my SDR, but this is handling the load quite well

@PwnieExpress @SOURCEConf just stay off the roads right now! Hunker down and have some local brews :)
#boston #marathon looking for suspicious black male with black hoodie, black backpack, turned away by security 5 mins before explosion
@ataraxia_status @eevee theyre looking to ID the driver to determine if it was legitimate charity or a bomb smuggling attempt
@ataraxia_status @eevee they showed up at the delivery gate at the hospital and were turned away because they werent expected
They are looking for a yellow Penske truck that attempted to gain access to hospital and was turned away: may or may not be legit #boston
@eevee the prior is strongly supported by the first responder radio, at least.
@_larry0 @chriseng were a town and a half outside the city proper. I doubt itd be practical to get in for many hours yet.
I just literally heard an officer say “pics plz” (of before and after I think, Im not positive)
@chriseng (I assume everything will be all clear by tomorrow morning)
@chriseng I was thinking about hitching in a ride to the conference tonight but that doesnt seem practical at the moment
@DarthNull so even if a route is open now it might not be in twenty minutes.
@DarthNull stay at the airport for a while. Theyre still looking for more devices. Multiple ones have been found
@aaqian are you in the city w/o cell access? Just stay inside a private building. All the risk is in public places
@WhiteMageSlave I'm a very unintentionally successful tumblrite http://t.co/Hrh225WW4Y
(Kind of surreal seeing my tweet of warning get copy-pasted to other social networks - true viral messaging in progress)
@ra6bit thats where Im at - some of these people I simply cant make out
One officer is flipping out about the signal problems - its strong enough but its not decoding properly
@gsuberland at this point it could be for any reason, as theres no evidence or groups claiming responsibility
@waruikoohii all I made out was JFK
Sounds like they found *another* incendiary device (I'm having trouble understanding the feed, it's very fuzzy)
@Nial those processes are largely automated
Sobering reminder that this sort of thing occurs in some countries all the time.
@jack_daniel Im still catching up to the very newest tweets, but Ive seen surprisingly little of that
@jack_daniel well in the 40 minutes since you posted this, its unambiguously a bomb now :(
Sounds like there is about to be a controlled explosion of a discovered device #boston #marathon
@AmberBaldet volunteer here - I was outside the city proper - will be there tomorrow assuming this doesn't all go to hell :)
@SimonHoneydew We are a brave city, emergency services is on the ball and all victims have been rescued
All victims rescued. Witnesses being evacuated to Copley(?) Hotel #boston
@okoeroo the first one wasn't :(
Probably a bad time to make a joke about Boston police overreacting to things that look vaguely like bombs so uh keep your backpacks on
Whatever you do, do NOT drive through Boston or take the subway right now. The emergency radio is buzzing with more possible bombs
@chadwik66 I meant wait minutes
Do you ever by coincidence refresh reddit two seconds after someone replies to you and you wait so you dont seem over-invested
Check it out, the face of medical patent evil: @myriadgenetics
@BadAstronomer the real purpose of metric is just to make snow depth sound more dramatic, isnt it!
@PwnieExpress is this in Boston? See you tomorrow :)
(I realize they were trying to fit all their hot issues into one tweet, but the result sounds just a wee touch over-violent)
@willjohansson @AsherLangton again, they were just trying to cram too much in one tweet and the result just sounds surreally violent.
@willjohansson @AsherLangton shooting someone who means to shoot you is a completely different question from shooting someone picking plants
@AsherLangton @willjohansson (and IMO gunning down plant thieves with assault rifles is way more immoral than thieving some stupid plants)
@AsherLangton @willjohansson I imagine thatd go down to the levels of generic robbery if it was fully properly legal to grow
@willjohansson … I realize theyre just trying to fit as many issues as possible into one tweet, but the result is absurd :p
@willjohansson since theyre implying marijuana being legal, which is fine, in what reality would you need to gun down pesky garden gnomes
Um… is this political party casually advocating lethal force to protect your freaking garden patch? https://t.co/JdNdjE9FQD

@blowdart the date I saw was 2004, so not quite literally ;)
@blowdart the fact that I had never heard of it until about an hour ago suggests it was maybe not a success :)
Funny how Apple, Samsung and MS all seem to be chasing after smart watches because of a Kickstarter for a simple device.

@marcusjcarey that would be the most consistent way, youre right.
@marcusjcarey another really good question, actually
@marcusjcarey obviously this is actually pretty complicated. But thats why we need some better legal protections than we have now…
@marcusjcarey oh, thats *from* the outside to the inside; I was thinking from the inside.
@yourserversdown @marcusjcarey you dont need a “digital postal service.” Just a legal acknowledgement that its private communications.
@marcusjcarey work email is slightly different in that its the communications of the company itself, so the company can look at it
@grp well what else would you expect to find when breaking into a lawyers email?
@marcusjcarey of course! Just because its technologically easy to sneak a peek doesnt mean its ethical.
If the American APT didnt “see any privileged communications,” thats primarily because they casually redefine email to be non-private.

@ra6bit when you engage with one, youre not engaging with an abstract intelligence but a set of beliefs about who that person is.

@rhysmorgan @JackLScanlan @dannolan (remember, otherkin is just a form of Middle School Disease. Dont stress about it :)
@rhysmorgan @JackLScanlan @dannolan yeah Im calling Poe on this one. An entire major otherkin blog turned out to be a stealth parody.

@chriseng @The1TrueSean hacking security quiz is the most indisputably valid way to pass security quiz.

@RSWestmoreland @savagejen there are literally ranches in Texas bigger than Rhode Island
DH used Firebug and Burp to make sure he got a perfect score in a security training quiz. I'm... I'm so proud
@savagejen I refuse to be associated with Rhode Island!
@eevee I'm actually bad at distinguishing individual people. I don't know why my brain tracks facial data this way.

Wait, Borowitz is one of those parody things, right? Darn. Id like to see that that Windows 8 support call.

@marshray its sad, she looks like a nice young lady, who probably doesnt know that it was stolen from a home.

@jack_daniel I update this thing multiple times per week!
Bonus points: it works fine at the login screen implying theres a soft keyboard per login session but I still cant kill the process

@wickux I dont understand why Samsung has so many different models within *one* company. They need to cut it down to 5 or 6.

@amanicdroid it's an app called "World of Warcraft" I think it literally displays a twitter search for "wow"

Oh look, the Windows 8 store approved an app called "World of Warcraft" which uses the official logo. And has GPS permissions.

Why do the timestamps in Twitter for Windows 8 think I am in Europe? I've filed jira tickets at 2am before but give me credit it's 10:20pm
@iDark_Link No it won't. You see aliens because iOS simply lacks the Unicode symbols. It says "you are on a desktop"
@L0sPengu1n0s only in metro
@iDark_Link really? Because no-one else does... What does it say?
Windows 8's autocorrect is incredibly dumb. Like someone has a patent on stupid obvious techniques they didn't want to license :/

@jeremywsherman or… like … *words*?
@jeremywsherman its a book. It uses three different As and an a on one page
@jeremywsherman I dont see how that illuminates slightly different fonts for the same letter meaning different variables at all :(

@thegrugq … why did they even buy apple hardware then
@thegrugq not any more so than being an all-Microsoft shop, IMO.
@lukegb @thegrugq yes, UK, youre important too. Im sure youll have an empire again someday *pat pat*
@pokemon_ebooks I bought it at a casino. Because Pokemon have no rights
@thegrugq yes, but thats kind of my point, bulk purchases is where its at with this thing.
@thegrugq how is Malaysia getting them shipped then? :)
@focalintent — and it sells like hotcakes in countries where the middle class can afford one device but not two.
@focalintent it reminds me how the Galaxy Note was “bad” because its like a phone or tablet but not quite either —

@mister_borogove @m1sp obviously a weather forecasting program isnt conscious, but I consider that a human decision making tool
@mister_borogove @m1sp the implication that some political parties are less conscious was not intentional.
@killerswan @mammothhq perhaps in the mind of whoever called it Pinterest for men - it wasnt corporate marketing, just some guy.
@mister_borogove @m1sp Im a fish, Ill eat this -> Im a squirrel, Ill stockpile this -> Im a human, lets talk sustainability
@mister_borogove @m1sp I define consciousness as a gradient proportionate to the ability to make decisions without immediate results
@jpgoldberg ethics is hard :(
@m1sp @eevee … and it turns out thats fairly common but people are terrified to admit it.
@m1sp @eevee … I may have told six thousand followers about my mechanical difficulties consummating my marriage, recently…
@eevee @m1sp Ive found success freely intermixing personal and technical tweets, few mind and many enjoy if youre sincere.
@m1sp @mister_borogove just run it in Dwarf Fortress
@m1sp but it means we all learn by conditioning to never look straight up because it hurts. Strange existence.
@m1sp though I find it strange to think that our eyes are incapable of directly examining something thats in the sky *every day*
@m1sp imagine if we didnt have long periods of darkness at regular intervals that caused us to go into suspended animation all the time
@eevee not to inflate your ego twice in one night but I practically have that thing hotkeyed to send to young programmers
@m1sp this is going to sound really sappy but you getting on twitter late in the evening is the second sunrise of my day
So I initially heard @mammothhq described as “Pinterest for men”. Because generic, neutral pinboard sites are for men? idgi

@eevee … I apologize for mis-speciesing you. Wise unevolved Pokémon
@MarkKriegsman wow that is actually quite a drop
@a_greenberg … wow. Was it at least their own name?
@C0deH4cker in the context of “film” specifically, that doesnt matter much. Actors always do weird things to get it filmed right.
@_wirepair yeah except 640x480 secondhand recordings w/ background noise are like, a hobos version of a pirated film, who does that
@osxreverser I find it amusing all the… ugh, I shouldnt do this, I dont want to encourage you anymore.
“Google Glass is going to revolutionize film!” Do these people not know that strapping cameras to your head has *always worked*
@AndreaJessup I cant know for *sure*, I dont know him well. But his behavior is indistinguishable from any happy, naive 6yo.
@AndreaJessup like I said — I dont have a problem with him smoking, I have a problem that he seems to be killing himself and might not know
@AndreaJessup the fact that there exist people who never reach mental and emotional adulthood is a sad reality of our fragile flesh.
“My philosophy is more complex than you just described!” “So is Pokémon, but you dont need a degree in it to know its pretend” ht @pzmyers
.@eevee is a wise man and I wont RT his entire commentary on making jokes at others expense and being surprised theyre upset.
@ErrataRob cash out, quick…
@seabre that sounds less … reasonable …
@seabre makes sense; forcing a mentally disabled person to go cold turkey and face withdrawal, in the hospital, sounds like a terrible idea
@williampietri … and childrens TV stations, who are in it to make a killing, wont even depict cigarettes. So thats pretty low.
@williampietri preying on the mentally incapacitated is one of the few things more wicked than preying on the ignorance of children imo…
@JastrzebskiJ like, when you see an obese child- not overweight, but *obese*- either its a medical condition or their parents need slapping
@JastrzebskiJ as disabled as he appears to be? Yes… because its someone else failing to responsible wrt him.
@puellavulnerata @PalantirTech … thats some misleading marketing if I ever heard it.
… like, hes an adult, he can smoke, but if hes 8yo on the inside, isnt the right thing to do to keep an eye on his consumption?
Theres a very mentally disabled man who lives here who smokes too much. I wonder if he understands the risk, and if not, who enables it…

Oh, this Windows 8 metro app is acting funny. I could control alt delete, or just scribble on the touchscreen until it crashes.

Why do good hardware companies usually have bad software departments? You'd think it'd be easier to find good programmers
@MalwareJake the more attention I pay to why MS does what it does, the more I see short-term hacks cause long-term pain.
@WarOnPrivacy (though they have super sloppy marketing, so no one knows the difference between Windows 8 and RT)
@WarOnPrivacy You know Windows 8 runs everything Windows 7 runs right? It just also has this gaudy other thing.
@MalwareJake in the case of the VPN client it's clearly Cisco's fault. "Disable driver signing"
@MalwareJake I'm reasonably sure it's Cisco's bug. MS has taken a harder line on not breaking their implementation for others' ease.
It just now occurs to me that *both* Cisco VPN and Cisco corporate WiFi routers do not work with Windows 8. For goodness sake!
That's why humans rock - we are compelled to share things that our brain liked.
I find it fascinating how, when a person encounters something they think is neat or clever, they feel compelled to share it - with anyone.

If my Mac is connected to a VPN, and my tablet is internetting over the Mac by Bluetooth, why can't the tablet reach hosts through the VPN

Does anyone know how similar the http://t.co/1FWc4yJFp0 Authenticators are to on-brand RSA tokens on the inside? C&C @cgiffard
@cgiffard I doubt theyd care very much; recovering the seed from hardware isnt in their threat model, they only care for remote logins
@cgiffard Actually buy some of the world of Warcraft ones, theyre very cheap. Good starting point.
@RSWestmoreland (I think its reasonable to let your 4yo walk off with a family friend at a picnic… you dont expect adults to be so stupid)
@RSWestmoreland … and theres not really any point in dragging the kids parents into the spotlight if they werent in the room.
@cgiffard a really good question! I have no idea. My work wouldnt be too amused if I went through a few dozen.
@RSWestmoreland 4yo not related to the sheriff. It was a picnic at someones house. Could be anyones kid I guess
@cgiffard Recovering the seed from the token would be big news. Theyre designed to wipe themselves if you break the seal.

@torvos ... I know we have a reputation for liking guns, but we don't teach shooting in schools...
@leethax0r one of them was a cop. Thats both reason to have a loaded weapon and reason to have way better common safety sense

“70% of teens actively seek to hide their online behavior from their parents.” The other 30% are victims of forced Facebook friending
@Worthless_Bums @Tomi_Tapio you like music, he likes music, its meant to be :p
@Packetknife Im just sitting over here like: Im an American and what is this 🇺🇸
@Viss if your huge spike lasts more than four hours, consult with your doctor
If your reaction to a foreigner getting pulled over for speeding is “he should be thankful the cops didnt <ridiculous overreaction>”…
@alongland @i0n1c I would not wish a confrontation with American cops on anyone :(
“Artistry in every sip” I may be the kind of person who buys Starbucks, but this marketing needs to tone it down a notch
@apeiros @whitequark 'twas in fact the very man who presumes to claim he is my husband !
@jesster_king it's still noodles and rice but like, different recipes. Tastes healthier
The Thai food stand made fun of me for changing up my usual order... so I guess you could say things are getting pretty serious
@chriseng nope! DH is screwed.
@m1sp that would be a twist ending...
@Unwitnessed I'm married to T; his best friend is G; T just called me G->Wife
Guess who just called me by his best friend's wife's name, in front of his best friend
@hypatiadotca in the car, I just now realize I suddenly departed
@unixronin she doesnt have one lol
@maradydd I cant stand him but I support his human right to share his writings so I wouldnt “blame” you.
@ra6bit meta-irony is what I will be remembered for
@unixronin thats not how twitter works…
Which is more dignified: to text my mother “stop reading my twitter” or just not answer
@blowdart good, because it was tongue-in-cheek

.@ebcube notice whether I criticize being barbaric or civilized depends totally on whichever lets me be lazier
@ebcube or I could just automate it like a civilized person!
@JastrzebskiJ yes, like so

@zooko just saying, the internet isnt as full of stupid, ignorant people as it first appears. Many participants are still in beta.
Dear newscaster: you say: “weve lost a great Briton” I hear: you lost an entire island and change. How did you manage that
@thegrugq Im thirteen now!
@m1sp and it certainly does not sound unmistakably feminine to my ears!
@m1sp “Margaret” is a name that has almost vanished from America. Theyre probably 11yos who have never heard the word.
Internet discussions strip most of the context of who is participating, which is both amazing and confusing.
Super awesome android boot loader hacking by @djrbliss http://t.co/Ae6IplGLPn
@rubbsdecvik Im just saying, if you get into an argument with an 11yo and are baffled by how “stupid” they are, youre being foolish ;)
@blowdart 13.
@ereslibre not that theyre usually eleven but that they usually COULD be eleven; theyre well-mixed and often inconspicuous.
@rubbsdecvik theres a big difference between correcting an 11yo and treating them like a particularly ignorant 30yo.
Anytime youre upset with someone on the internet, stop and ask yourself: could this person be eleven years old? The answer is usually yes.
Now to brace for the wave of old people angry that eleven-year-olds on the internet havent heard of a famous old person who passed away.
@rantyben *backs away slowly*
@JoelEsler @iseezeroday … I feel like putting this on the internet isnt fair to this kid in the long term…

Whoa, I hadn't seen New Housemate in about two years, and he... grew into his facial features I guess?
@rubbingalcohol @matthew_d_green it's been fixed I guess. A javascript injection vector.
@locks just making fun of megatokyo :)
@flyhachi THEY CALL ME... HEIR OF THE MAYFLOWER
@flyhachi then you were born about 0 miles from where my dad was born probably :p
@joshrossi because coins can be permanently lost and there's a finite amount; I'm not an economist though.
@joshrossi I think I wish I had generated some when it was really easy, but long term it will fall apart
@K_DAN_Jr thank you, trying to catch up after neglecting developing my abilities for a while...

@elwoz sure, I guess, if you swear not to leak or that villainess shall claim your soul with a giggle.
@elwoz yup... more than half done, finally...

@Raxphiel redheads or sword-wielding maniacs?
@m1sp also if you get on chat I will share some really creepy Plot with you
@m1sp I ended up incorporating it as a gag into the script.
@Tomi_Tapio I do a lot of sketches with more dynamic stuff, but I never have the patience to make them polished. http://t.co/NnULRWTa8F
I bet him and New Housemate pulled over and are having cuddles! Manly straight cuddles
He left Virginia ten hours ago and I havent heard a peep since… not answering his phone… I know its on, he cant get anywhere without GPS!
@elwoz (she is a Dastardly Villain in my novel)
@elwoz well what kind of girl goes out without her sword
@codinghorror I have like a 30% on a link I posted last night, I suspect you have a very high ratio of dead account followers.

@eqe their god invented refrigeration specifically so banning things due to ease of food poisoning was no longer necessary !
@tapbot_paul noscript, I guess...
@RSWestmoreland oh, um. I find it kind of odd everyone else is casually suggesting I not wear clothes in front of a man I'm not atrracted to
What about zooplankton? They're animals... (I don't actually dislike vegans, just definition trolling)
@bmirvine everything that's ever been exposed to air can contain insect parts!
@KrakensDen honestly I don't know but all soil kind of has decomposed animal matter in it somewhere don't you think!
@homologygroup without having triggered it myself, it appears to be getting malicious javascript onto the oauth page.
Apparently figs aren't vegan to some because they tend to contain insect parts. Pretty sure at that point nothing can ever be vegan
@tapbot_paul (where "just worked" == it auto-propels you through oauth and adds the app)
@tapbot_paul I'm not sure, but one of my followers reported that, with javascript on, they went to the site and it just worked
@thequux ... you're CFG-sexual?
@TinyPirate @Tomi_Tapio I generally don't play online games that only have (clearly) male avatars; I get misgendered enough with *this* av!
Twitter has deleted the tweets known to contain the malicious link, but is the underlying vuln fixed yet? /cc @mikko
@RSWestmoreland there's a third signature line on the paperwork waiting for him
@sakjur yeah; start with 32-bit.
@Voulnet check @mikko's feed.
@snrson well, he's a straight male, so.....,
The long-promised housemate is arriving today. Dangit, I have to start wearing pants in my own house like some kind of civilized person
@inversephase Im not sure what else you could have possibly expected!

@davidjayharris I would definitely avoid ones that are double-wrapped in shorteners so you cant see where they really go
@NoMoreCloset @panther_modern they can add an arbitrary app to your account and start tweeting as you.
@panther_modern I RTd some things of @mikko
@miaubiz no its not
@nullwhale also anyone can reimplement the exploit on a new domain
@nullwhale Im pretty sure it didnt start out with that.
Apparently it *is* true, theres an exploit for sending you through Twitters oauth automatically, and it still works, be paranoid.
@nullwhale oh, well, obviously noscript doesnt count.
@snare I hesitate to even ask what prompted that remark
@nullwhale implying your first tweet was mistaken?
@mirell start with 32-bit for sure and honestly at this point I dont even remember how I got started
I just woke up. Theres an actual twitter worm? As in you click the link and it just adds the app?
@TinyPirate @Tomi_Tapio — then I saw female avatars but by that time I just had kind of a slightly icky feeling about the community
@TinyPirate @Tomi_Tapio first time I saw Day Z I decided not to play bc it appeared there was only male avatars (1/2)
@oh_rodr I assume you mean weev who I blocked something like a year ago. But you know he mails his tweets to a friend right?
@mirell its largely a matter of knowing how to write assembly first. Then write some C and look at the disassembly.
@sakjur at EntryPoint!…. Or is that not what youre asking
@jesster_king lol I think you might have missed the dripping sarcasm :p
Why does this site default to birthyear 1995? Children shouldn't -- -- -- -- oh my gods
@geekable I knew what that was without even hovering the URL...
@therulerofchina (in general, KJV is an outright irresponsible translation, including politically motivated decisions)
@therulerofchina that's a translation quirk.
@edropple actually you can see their definition of India here on this map, waaaay on the edge :) http://t.co/7T5OV6NaN8
@edropple (granted their definition of India probably does not match the modern boundary)
@edropple it is mentioned explicitly in the first sentence as the far boundary of the Persian empire.
Another little-known fact is that India is mentioned in the Bible - in the book of Esther. Geographically speaking it's pretty inclusive
It's said there are no "white" people in the Bible but that's actually not true. Aside from the Greeks and Romans, the Galatians are Celtic.
@tylerbindon I suspect it's more of a covering thing if someone gets sick after undercooking it.
This microwave chicken pie box wants me to check with a thermometer for 163 degrees throughout. Chicken pie, you're just not that special
@McGrewSecurity I enjoy scribbling on things in general but the graph doesn't have enough annotations (ie it doesn't show the format string)
