| 15:12.50 | programmerq | eightyeight⸠I'd like to put together a numbers station puzzle for an infosec CTF |
| 15:18.42 | eightyeight | As in actually transmitting a numbers station? |
| 15:18.59 | eightyeight | On LPFM? |
| 15:19.23 | programmerq | yeah, make some rtlsdr dongles available |
| 15:20.05 | programmerq | I *think* I could transmit on ham frequencies, if I included a note about the fact that the purpose of the transmission is to communicate a puzzle for a specific group. |
| 15:20.33 | programmerq | but yeah, I'd still do it super low power no matter what |

| 15:24.50 | eightyeight | The FCC allows LPFM without a license, then you don't need to worry about violating ham frequencies |
| 15:28.32 | programmerq | I didn't know about LPFM until you mentioned it. I did a quick google, and it looked like there was some sort of application process? |
| 15:29.40 | eightyeight | hmm. i don't think so. however, you could also use the unlicensed FRS |
| 15:30.01 | eightyeight | although, iirc, you're limited to the radio |
| 15:31.59 | programmerq | yeah |
| 15:32.05 | programmerq | FRS is also relatively saturated |
| 15:33.24 | eightyeight | CB is also unlicensed |
| 15:33.46 | eightyeight | however, what are you thinking in terms of a puzzle? |
| 15:35.09 | programmerq | there are enough people in here that might end up doing it that I don't want to give anything away. :) |
| 15:35.20 | programmerq | something not too hard once you get over the relatively novel delivery mechanism. |
| 15:35.33 | eightyeight | fair enough |

| 19:55.19 | romanovic | keep getting booted |
| 19:59.22 | TodPunk | You have to identify before you join |
| 20:00.01 | TodPunk | So you either have to connect with your username/password to the server, or you have to make sure your identify finishes (acceptance returned) before you join |
| 20:02.41 | eightyeight | romanovic: yeah. set your nickserv password as your server password when connecting |
| 20:02.51 | eightyeight | then you'll be identified before joining any channels |
| 20:44.04 | romanovic | anyone familiar with windows PATH? I dropped a .cmd in a dir added to my PATH envvar, but it doesn't work |
| 20:44.20 | romanovic | still executes fine if I call it from the same working directory |
| 20:45.42 | romanovic | so, I know I can execute .cmd files directly, and I know that binaries on my PATH can be located, but I can't execute a .cmd in the PATH from another dir... ? |
| 20:47.39 | spangborn | Did you log-out/in? |
| 20:48.01 | spangborn | I can't remember if Windows requires you to do so after changing path because you can't source that like you can with a .bashrc |

| 21:33.39 | TodPunk | romanovic: there are different PATHs |
| 21:34.07 | TodPunk | if you're on a commandline that's "as administrator" it will have just the system version of PATH |
| 21:43.47 | romanovic | Figured it out. Turns out it was finding and calling the correct .cmd the whole time... but the .cmd was attempting to call a _different_ .cmd with a bad relative path |
| 21:44.02 | romanovic | and _that_ call was the thing throwing the error |
| 21:44.27 | romanovic | just had to fix my path in the .cmd to be relative to the .cmd working dir |
| 21:47.52 | jfindlay | if you look in one more place, you will have found it in the penultimate place |

| 23:23.03 | aeryndunham | So a 16-year-old racked up $1208 in Internet charges in 5 days |
| 23:26.00 | aeryndunham | also a man just told me to go get a real job |
| 23:26.03 | aeryndunham | >.< |
| 23:28.05 | TodPunk | .... |
| 23:29.20 | aeryndunham | I don't know what he means by that |
| 23:29.27 | aeryndunham | he did ask how much they pay me |
| 23:29.37 | aeryndunham | and I (maybe in bad form) said, "not enough" |
| 23:35.53 | romanovic | haha. wow, I'm assuming the 16 yr old charged all that to the room? |
| 23:36.04 | aeryndunham | Yep |
| 23:36.12 | aeryndunham | So of course I've got grandma in here crying |
| 23:36.16 | aeryndunham | and I need to find a way to fix it |
| 23:40.03 | romanovic | what is your general policy? It sounds like something you'd have to deal with on a regular basis. Do passengers sometimes reach a point where discounting their internet is cheaper than public melt-downs in the internet cafe? |
| 23:42.00 | aeryndunham | haha yes |
| 23:42.12 | aeryndunham | I'm adjusting this kid's plan to what he would have payed if he's bought our largest plan |
| 23:42.22 | aeryndunham | it's a much lower per-minute rate |
| 23:42.30 | romanovic | ah |
| 23:42.46 | aeryndunham | still gonna be like $400 |
| 23:43.40 | aeryndunham | But I think it's a decen compromise |
| 23:44.15 | romanovic | yeah |
| 23:47.16 | TodPunk | and grandma needs to beat that kid |
| 23:47.24 | romanovic | 2 hrs from now - "grandma have you seen my phone" "I'm sorry, it must have fallen overboard" |
| 23:47.42 | romanovic | "it sleeps with the fishes" |
| 23:54.13 | aeryndunham | and she DIDN'T want me to block his account |
| 23:54.21 | aeryndunham | but I said that was non-negotiable |
| 23:57.35 | TodPunk | so, he IS blocked now? |
| 23:57.58 | aeryndunham | yeah |
| 23:58.59 | aeryndunham | this actually doesn't happen often - only once before to me, it was only $300 in charges as opposed to over a thousand, and the kid was only 9 so it was more understandable that she didn't quite grasp what she was doing |
