00:53.22mns`by now, i guess its a 'inside job' joke
00:53.23se7enor is it by a hacker
00:53.42KatolaZse7en: the pwned page says "Green Hat Hackers"
00:54.02KatolaZso it must be form some hacker of sort

01:13.03roo^ythx :)
01:15.39redrick-u is for UTC.  (I for one welcome our Greenwich overlords.)
01:16.13redrickNot that there's anything wrong with AEST.
01:17.31redrickThough in many ways, truth is longitude-dependent, you may perceive.
01:18.57Jjp137roo^y, try: date -ud @7779847
01:19.57redrickI mean, if I observed AEST, at teatime it'd be the previous night, and that would never do.
01:20.05roo^yok. we go back to AEST in a week. currently at the end of AEDT, after summer
01:20.44roo^ydate -ud @7779847
01:20.45roo^yWed Apr  1 01:04:07 UTC 1970
01:21.00roo^ythis works!
01:21.34redrickWelcome to Greenwich.  There's a pedestrian tunnel to the Docklands for your convenience.
01:21.54roo^yniiiiiiiice
01:22.08redrickhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenwich_foot_tunnel
01:23.48redrickroo^y:  The AEST -> AEDT changeover date was presumbly earlier in 1970, FWIW.  Date calculations are a special kind of hell for coders.
01:25.27roo^yi wrote these 6 lines to answer repeated questions
01:25.43roo^yIt was worked out as typing the following into the terminal, populates april fools days
01:25.43roo^ydate -ud @1554080659

01:31.26redrick(The protocol was named for the U. of Minnesota's mascot, in case the joke was too obscure.)
01:32.20Dsbeerfso those iso can be compromised ?
01:34.23roo^yDsbeerf: the ISOs are safe (unlike the incident that happened to linux mint several yrs ago
01:34.58Dsbeerfroo^y, ok that what i was refering to
01:35.04redrickDsbeerf:  It's worth learning how to check gpg signatures on ISO checksums, then you wouldn't need to ask.

01:37.13*** join/#devuan xcm (~xcm@ipa210.225.tellas.gr)
01:38.12redrickThe one bit of humbug in that transcript is where I skip over how I found the signing key.
01:42.48Dsbeerfok
01:46.07redrickI Web-searched around and found references to that key, chose to believe conditionally that the mentions weren't fraudulent, and fetched it from a keyserver.  More ideally, one would be able to verifying key authenticity using gpg web of trust, but I evidently need to attend more keysignings for that.
01:47.13redrickBack in the 1990s, when the Linux community was small, we used to joke about keysignings letting us play 'Six degrees of Ted T'so.'
01:48.40redrickAnyway, even if signing key verification's a weak point, it's IMO always worth trying to vet ISO checksums.

02:14.15Dsbeerfyeah well is more that nothing
02:21.11redrickWell, it'd require a heck of a plan to get away with having a bogus key in the public keyservers for e-mail address repository@devuan.org, especially for significantly long.
02:24.55redrickHuh, just checked my verification transcript, and saw that the SHA256SUM file was signed with KatolaZ's key, not the Primary Devuan signing key.
02:25.57redrickBut, anyway, as you say, a lot better than nothing.

02:43.42benjikuntime to actually start using gopher again :^)
02:44.00RyushinLets go back to 300 baud BBS.
02:44.04opalgopher doesnt strike me as well-engineered; imo we just need a slimmed-down http
02:46.21plasma41opal: like HTTP/0.9?
02:47.38opalnot sure. i definitely think http/2 and beyond are too geared toward webapps, hacks upon hacks, to be any good
02:48.03opala lot of http/1.1+ headers for security can probably be easier managed with saner browser defaults, idk
02:48.22furrywolfI've been really tempted to write a news article about Trump and Pelosi's surprise marriage announcement for tomorrow.
02:48.38opali think content security policies are their own brand of complexity that could cause as many issues as the things theyre trying to prevent
02:49.06opali think anyone would agree that information such as useragent and referer are entirely arbitrary to keep in the protocol
02:49.06plasma41I like that both Gopher and HTTP/0.9 are stateless protocols. No cookies
02:49.22opalcookies/auth is a good point
02:49.33opaldo you think all of http should be authless and stateless
02:49.56opalim trying to move my stateful stuff off of the web browser. i use mail in its own client, irc obviously, xmpp
02:50.04plasma41auth: yes. all other forms of state: no

10:30.25DocScrutinizer05>> It all works, but it limits Linux processes to a mere 512GB of virtual address space. Such limits are irksome to the kernel developers when the hardware can do more, and, besides, somebody is likely to release a web browser or office suite which runs into that limit in the near future.<<

12:42.56premobosshello, i have problem with date. i am located in italy, now it is 14:39 but the clock report +2 hours, I try to select the location with tzselect, but no way. also try to use command "date" to set the clock, but no way. what am i doing wrong?
12:45.39rrqI always have to go to "man tzselect" to remember it, you should do: dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
12:46.11nailykhttps://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20190331.191104.169aaf9a.en.html is that true ?

12:48.57buZzpremoboss: apt install ntpdate; ntpdate ntp.xs4all.nl

12:50.29premobossbuZz, how to set my tine the right one?

13:20.31Evilhamnot the case I'm afraid
13:21.09Jookiaso katolaz did this on their own?
13:21.36tuxd3vI am a bit sad, it went so far..

13:24.21buZzand the only one i've seen defending it

13:29.01gnarfacei think anyone who didn't realize it was a joke as soon as there was no javascript in that html and wasn't willing to wait until after april fool's to jump ship probably is dangerously irrational anyway
13:29.06KatolaZwow, so faithful devuan users we have...
13:29.23gnarfacei mean gopher, really?
13:29.23KatolaZanyway, it's all explained in the email
13:29.26KatolaZhttps://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20190401.132526.1a220dc3.en.html
13:29.32KatolaZbbl
13:29.39buZzgnarface: well, ppl that administrate many servers dont usually kid around with such security issues
13:29.59Jookiagnarface: the devuan infrastructure admins were saying they were hacked and denying it was an april fools joke
13:30.18gnarfacewell, i'm not one of them, but i did say that might not be taken well
13:30.20buZzadmin* , i havent seen anyone 'back' the joke at all, beside KatolaZ
13:30.27Jookiai don't think it's fair to say they're dangerously irrational for believing it
13:30.36gnarfacei was silent about it when i should not have been
13:30.50buZzeven 1 hour of actually hacked could mean millions of backdoored systems
13:31.28Jookiakatolaz apologized and that's about all that can be done
13:31.52Jookiabut its just kinda weird to me that one person can make such huge modifications to a trusted server like that
13:31.52gnarfacereal villains would definitely have put tracking scripts on that page
13:32.14desperekKatolaZ, aaaaaa!
13:32.35buZzits just beyond bad taste, imho
13:32.45Jookialike if someone stole katolaz's ssh keys could they actually hack the site
13:32.56desperekyou also need a password for ssh Jookia
13:33.02Jookiassh session then
13:33.22despereki dont think you can stole ssh session
13:33.33Jookiait's a little bit scary to think that there's not a barrier with oversight for the entire website
13:33.45desperek?
13:33.45Jookianot just the contents but also the infrastructure itself
13:34.45Jookiausually with tech projects you see websites in github with merge requests handling changes
13:34.46buZzwell, infrastructure wasnt affected, all pkg mirrors etc were still up

21:21.00_abc_With persistence on live images: is persistence-label= only supported in later (than wheezy level) distributions? It seems to not be treated in /bin/live-persistence at all.
21:21.13_abc_I wasted half a day trying to make it work
21:22.27_abc_Normally if "persistence" is on the kernel cli then something in the init scripts should call /bin/live-persistence, no?
21:24.38_abc_??
22:07.03fsmithred_abc_, persistence on the boot command alone looks for a volume with lable 'persistence'
22:07.36fsmithredfor other label, you need 'persistence persistence-label=some-name'
22:07.42fsmithredbbiab
22:13.39_abc_fsmithred: I tried both, this is for wheezy livecnc 2.7 iso which I wedged into a r2u made usb stick
22:14.13_abc_fsmithred: the persistence things are completely ignored when booting into that using the system's defaults. I need to figure out how to make it not do that.

22:28.27ServiceRobotgood evening folks
22:28.29buZzi like that the only person responsible for the bad joke, even -called- it a bad joke when he made it initially
22:28.46buZzyet didnt think of fixing it until much later :P
22:28.50ServiceRobotI was just going to say I got a fistful of dng emails today...
22:28.56buZzyeah lol
22:29.08ServiceRobotquickly realized what had happend when visiting /r/linux
22:29.13buZzServiceRobot: someone forgot to learn something when his parents read him 'boy who cried wolf' as a kid
22:29.25ServiceRobotI don't know wether to call this a mess, or an overreaction
22:29.45buZzthe introduction of gopher servers is cool
22:29.56*** join/#devuan watchcat (~wc@kite.riseup.net)
22:29.57ServiceRobotit doesn't change anything for me personally. I will still use devuan on my personal home server
22:30.03buZzthe 'oh noes we got hacked, all your installs might be at risk globally' was horrible
22:30.06ServiceRobotit's been working great for me so far
22:30.19ServiceRobotbut it was just the website, not the repos?
22:30.28buZzServiceRobot: there wasnt any hack
22:30.34ServiceRobotI know
22:30.38buZzit was just 1 admin that was trying to be funny
22:30.55ServiceRobotbut some people reinstalled their entire systems because they thought it was real
22:31.04buZzof course they did, thats normal recourse
22:31.14buZznow what if you administrate 100s of devuan servers
22:31.19ServiceRobotI'm no sysadmin so I don't really have an opinion
22:31.30buZzthen it might not be so 'funny' to hear 'devuan is hacked' on 31th of march
22:31.42ServiceRobotdo you think this will harm devuan in the long run? I still want to support this project
22:31.51buZzi think it already did
22:32.04buZzbut many will stay regardless, of course
22:32.18ServiceRobotwhat, do you think we should abandon it because of the joke?
22:32.22buZzif we were '100' serious before, in eyes of onlookers
22:32.29buZzwe will now maybe be '75' serious
22:32.33buZzif you can even quantify it
22:32.57buZzwhich might be way easier on the minds of said admin(s) , but not really in benefit of the project
22:33.04ServiceRobotI don't know. seems people overreacted
22:33.11buZzotoh, it really got the devuan name mentioned all over the place
22:33.33watchcatimo it'll improve devuan by getting rid of a few humorless people
22:33.35buZzServiceRobot: it could have been just as funny to just go 'all our webpages are now gopher only, go to xxxx'
22:33.56buZzand then after april 1st go 'haha fooled you, here's the website back, but now we also have gopher'
22:34.04buZzwith zero harm to onlook in seriousness
22:34.14ServiceRobotwell the admin responsible for it realized his lack of judgement. can't we just move on?
22:34.21buZzwatchcat: tbh, you cant, unless you want to avoid any big users

22:34.57buZzhow will ppl respond when devuan now -actually- get hacked?
22:35.05buZz'haha just dumbass admin making jokes again'
22:35.20buZzas i said : 00:29:12 < buZz> ServiceRobot: someone forgot to learn something when his parents read him 'boy who cried wolf' as a kid
22:35.31watchcatbuZz: ?
22:35.54buZzyou guys are bad at aesop's fables :P
22:35.58buZzhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boy_Who_Cried_Wolf
22:35.58ServiceRobotI dunno. it seems like an overreaction to me
22:36.10buZz> The Boy Who Cried Wolf is one of Aesop's Fables, numbered 210 in the Perry Index.[1] From it is derived the English idiom "to cry wolf", defined as "to give a false alarm" in Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable[2] and glossed by the Oxford English Dictionary as meaning to make false claims, with the result that subsequent true claims are disbelieved.[3]
22:36.22ServiceRobotbuzz, we're not retarded. we know what that story is
22:36.47buZzso you can see its applicability then?
22:36.53buZzand -why- i referenced it?
22:37.04ServiceRobotI see it as an overreaction. yes, the joke could have been handled better
22:37.10ServiceRobotthere was an apology. move on
22:37.16watchcatmeh. only a few er less intelligent people thought there was any danger.
22:37.17buZzit didnt go live on april 1st either
22:37.41ServiceRobotthat's because a lot of devuan admins aren't from the U.S. so it was april first where they were
22:37.53buZzit wasnt, they live in my timezone
22:38.15ServiceRobotnot the ones I've spoken to
22:38.16buZzi even confirmed it was hosted on freaknet's infra in italy
22:38.30buZz'my' timezone isnt US's
22:38.40buZzi, like most people globally, dont live in the US
22:40.21ServiceRobotbut what are you trying to get at buzz? the admin responsible for the joke apoligized already.
22:40.42buZzright, the point was your question if it did damage
22:40.55buZzi was saying it probably already did
22:41.03buZzand was explaining why i said that
22:41.05ServiceRobotbut how much damage, if any?

22:41.27ServiceRobotI don't want quanfitications. I want examples
22:41.39buZzyou literally just asked to quantify it :P
22:42.36buZzsay if a company was just considering to move their vps platforms from debian to devuan
22:42.48buZzand now on monday meetings it was first 'eh, devuan repos are hacked'
22:42.59buZzand then 8 hrs later a email 'oh eh it was a joke'
22:43.11buZzdo you think a serious company would then still consider devuan an option?
22:43.18watchcatnobody said devuan repos were hacked.
22:43.26watchcatonly
22:44.23buZz'just' files.devuan.org , git.devuan.org, pkginfo.devuan.org :P
22:45.01ServiceRobotbut people were worried they were hacked because the main website was. there was no indication the repos were left untouched. again, an apology was sent, and I'm perfectly fine with it
22:45.17buZzmirrors already have been pulled offline because of this :P
22:45.25buZzand i dont blame them
22:46.09watchcatanyone who asked if the repos were affected were told clearly, "no".
22:46.29buZzright, the same ppl who repeated over and over that it wasnt a joke
22:47.39watchcatwell at least complain about real stuff instead of exaggerations.
22:48.01buZzalright, i'm sad there's less mirrors of devuan now
22:48.14buZzi'm also sad its less of a serious distro in the eyes on many now
