[01:28:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> oooh, clinton foundation tax returns for 2013 just leaked
[01:29:53] <Bytram> linky?
[01:29:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> they're paying ~25% of their yearly income out in salaries/benefits. this does not jive with hillary's 90% claim
[01:30:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> https://t.co
[01:30:13] <exec> └─ 13https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails//fileid/36077/9981
[01:31:03] <Bytram> Yikes! There's over 60 pages in that pdf!
[01:31:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[01:32:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm certainly not printing it out
[01:32:35] <crutchy> yeah i'm starting to get the feeling that its not a shoein for hillary
[01:32:55] <crutchy> despite what some media says
[01:34:16] <crutchy> i saw a video on yt that suggested these leaks could be the result of some dead man switch
[01:34:25] <Bytram> well, to play devil's advocate, this is *purported* to be their tax return... it could also have been, ummm, adjusted, or just made up of whole cloth.
[01:34:27] <crutchy> not sure how credible that is
[01:34:55] <crutchy> Bytram, true. will have to see if they flat out deny it
[01:35:19] <crutchy> if they deny it, people will no doubt want to see copies of the actual though
[01:35:26] <crutchy> to prove
[01:35:31] <Bytram> ever read "The Purloined Letter" ??
[01:35:39] <Bytram> hide things in plain sight
[01:35:39] <crutchy> haven't heard of that
[01:35:47] <Bytram> is a *classic*

[01:35:53] <Bytram> Edgar Alan Poe
[01:36:01] * Bytram read his collected works as a teen
[01:36:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, no, it's legit. cryptographically provable.
[01:36:11] <crutchy> i'm not much of a reader
[01:36:14] <Bytram> that was one of the more memorable ones.
[01:36:22] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Metamaterial Device Allows Chameleon-like Behavior in the Infrared - http://sylnt.us - I-don't-see-it-working
[01:36:32] <crutchy> TheMightyBuzzard, i wouldn't assume anything on the net is a given
[01:36:33] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: How so?
[01:36:48] <crutchy> crytography doesn't prove its authentic
[01:37:04] <crutchy> just that you're getting it from the source you think you're getting it from
[01:37:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, dkim header in the email proves the email is legit
[01:37:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> https://www.emailonacid.com
[01:37:56] <crutchy> the host is t.co with a wikileaks.org title
[01:38:01] <exec> └─ 13What is DKIM? Everything You Need to Know About Digital Signatures
[01:38:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> t.co is a url shortener. it's just a redirect.
[01:38:24] <crutchy> what's the original url?
[01:38:24] <Bytram> could it not have been altered prior to it's being sent to wikileaks?
[01:38:38] <crutchy> yeah shorteners can alter things easily
[01:38:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, not sent to wikileaks, sent to john podesta.
[01:38:50] <Bytram> ohhh, got ya.
[01:39:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> https://wikileaks.org if you prefer, crutchy
[01:39:42] <crutchy> ta
[01:40:07] <crutchy> always better to try to cut out middlemen
[01:40:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> now podesta could be getting fake tax returns for them but i have no idea why
[01:41:15] <Bytram> I suppose she could claim that the 90% figure pertained to the most recent year; this release is from 2013.
[01:41:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> she could claim lots of shit. she's a high quality liar.
[01:42:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> meh, i'm not gonna read the whole thing.
[01:42:30] <Bytram> a quick glance suggests that Schedule O is where the 'good stuff' is.
[01:42:59] <crutchy> reading a tax return aint exactly my idea of fun on a beautiful sunday arvo
[01:44:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, s'what i thought
[01:45:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> crutchy, no doubt. think ima not read it and let someone who is fiscally motivated to fry her do the work for me.
[01:45:54] <crutchy> tmb, re fake tax returns. possibly to hurt wikileaks reputation
[01:46:14] <Bytram> as someone who reviewed the SN incorporation docs, I share that viewpoint... I'm also trying to push out a few stories to make it into the next day.
[01:46:27] <Bytram> oh, should prolly get some dinner cooking... biab
[01:46:29] <crutchy> give them bs. wikileaks prints it. wikileaks now known for printing bs
[01:46:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> crutchy, temporal issue there. the email was sent while wikileaks was still their best buds for ripping on republicans.
[01:47:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> wikileaks got all the emails at once. there wasn't any time that the clintons knew wikileaks was going to burn them.
[01:47:43] <crutchy> but back then they apparently didn't release it
[01:48:08] <crutchy> the clintons knew wikileaks could burn them
[01:48:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, they been doing daily releases since they started so it's not one big lump that nobody wants to read.
[01:48:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, wikileaks was best buds with the dems until this.
[01:48:48] <crutchy> howso?
[01:48:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> cause they hadn't burned the dems
[01:49:17] <crutchy> why not if they had the emails?
[01:49:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> they released the emails almost as soon as they got them. just not all at once.
[01:49:52] <crutchy> when did they get them?
[01:50:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> i forget. shortly after the clinton email server scandal.
[01:51:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think.
[01:51:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> i've slept and drank since then.
[01:51:26] <crutchy> only reason to think wikileaks and clintons were best buds would be if wikileaks had emails and *didn't* release them straight away
[01:51:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> there was no time where they knew they were gonna get burned though
[01:53:05] <crutchy> if i were in a political organisation, i would definitely put plants in everything
[01:53:11] <crutchy> including wikileaks
[01:53:48] <crutchy> only the stuff that makes the organisation look bad though
[01:53:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> you read the evil overlord's list though. none of them do.
[01:54:22] <crutchy> i don't know about what clinton does. it just wouldn't surprise me
[01:54:56] <crutchy> it would be smart to make it easy to disprove any negative press by planting the negative press with bullshit that is easy to disprove
[01:55:48] <crutchy> and a false tax return would be easy to disprove
[01:56:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> not really
[01:56:27] <crutchy> anyway, ima going to play shootemup
[01:56:32] <crutchy> :D
[01:56:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> you can wave another tax return but the irs wouldn't verify it
[01:56:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup, enjoy

[14:35:14] <cmn32480> screwed up?
[14:35:24] <janrinok> yup - back OK now tho
[14:36:27] * cmn32480 thinks you might have that backerds
[14:36:47] <janrinok> I do wish looking at a Meta page didn't take me back to that story list as default
[14:37:15] <janrinok> cmn32480, how's things with your weekend
[14:37:25] <cmn32480> if you submit a bug report, I'm sure the devs will completely ignore it
[14:37:31] <cmn32480> the usual
[14:37:32] <janrinok> lol
[14:37:46] <cmn32480> family stuff puts chores off yesterday..
[14:38:06] <cmn32480> wastiung time here today puts the chores off until next weekend...
[14:38:22] <cmn32480> how 'bout you?
[14:38:23] <janrinok> very busy here. Visited S yesterday, have a relation who lives nearby who was taken into hospital yesterday with heart attack / pneumonia
[14:38:27] <cmn32480> redecorating going well?
[14:38:38] <cmn32480> oh dear
[14:38:42] <cmn32480> hope all is ok
[14:38:44] <janrinok> haven't really got going with it yet
[14:38:53] <cmn32480> but are you resting is the real question?
[14:39:06] <janrinok> lost all of yesterday, and most of Friday
[14:39:32] * janrinok is meant to be resting...!
[14:40:04] <cmn32480> c'mon man.. try to sleep in at least one day
[14:40:39] <janrinok> I do sleep better while S is away. I don't have to listen out for her, and it doesn't matter what time I wake up
[14:41:00] <cmn32480> that's good at least
[14:41:21] <cmn32480> she getting some rest as well, I hope?
[14:41:31] <cmn32480> I know that keeping you in line is a full time job for her
[14:41:54] <janrinok> she is doing OK, although she would rather be home. However, she accepts that this is for me, not really for her
[14:42:17] <janrinok> I'll visit her again tomorrow afternoon.
[14:42:54] <cmn32480> I am not particulary surprised that she;d rather be at home
[14:43:07] <cmn32480> please give her my best when you see her.
[14:43:22] <janrinok> I will, thank you
[14:43:39] <janrinok> Have you been out injuring yourself with the Cubs again?
[14:43:55] <cmn32480> nope
[14:44:09] <cmn32480> but I will try to injure myself today doing chores outside
[14:45:43] <janrinok> I notice that Khyber has been mentioned rather more than previously over the last few weeks - has he been released?
[14:46:02] <cmn32480> unknown...
[14:46:12] <janrinok> I'm checking sales of LEDs, nothing of note there
[14:46:21] <cmn32480> but execc pulled a bunch of his trademarks up randomly, and of course, being DDoS'd this morning...
[14:46:29] <cmn32480> lol
[14:47:14] <janrinok> I don't believe in coincidences, but that just might be a coincidence...
[14:47:27] <janrinok> on the other hand ....
[14:47:34] <cmn32480> anything is possible
[14:47:59] <janrinok> I wonder if he was working on an LED-DDoS machine?
[14:50:08] <cmn32480> interesting... but I woudl think that would make the screens flash
[14:50:34] <janrinok> might have happened during the extra hour in bed last night - I wouldn't have noticed
[14:50:58] <cmn32480> possible... but I would have seen it this morning when the site woudln't load for crap
[14:52:04] <janrinok> well, it is our responsibility to put the crap there, isn't it?
[14:52:29] <cmn32480> as I said in the comments... the site was so slow enven the editorial staff noticed
[14:52:53] <janrinok> I noted that comment
[14:53:10] <cmn32480> now I'm notable?
[14:53:17] <janrinok> only just
[14:53:25] * cmn32480 sighs in relief
[14:53:34] <cmn32480> woudln't wanna get noticed by putting my name out there too much
[14:56:15] <cmn32480> all right
[14:56:21] <cmn32480> time for me to get some stuff done.
[14:56:29] <janrinok> yeah, go do stuff
[14:56:31] <cmn32480> daylight ain't gonna last forever... <sigh>
[14:56:36] <cmn32480> YAY STUFF!
[15:15:52] <Subsentient> So I heard there was a DDoS.
[15:16:06] <janrinok> yes, it wasn't very exciting
[15:16:36] <janrinok> TheMightyBuzzard was busy, but other than a slightly slower site everything is going OK
[15:16:52] <janrinok> I think TMB said it was a 0.1Krebs

[22:05:52] <boru> It's supposed to get cold, finally, this week.
[22:06:01] <boru> First frosts, looks like.
[22:06:55] <Deucalion> Nice to actually have an Autumn this year... after several years of warm, warm, warm, ~blam~ ice n frost. The colours on the trees have been epic round my way the last few weeks.
[22:07:00] -!- Runaway1956 has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[22:07:27] <boru> Aye, same up around here.
[22:07:48] <boru> Roll on cold, frosty nights.
[22:08:02] <boru> Precipitate all of that silly moisture out of the night air.
[22:09:16] <Deucalion> At least the little cold snap a few weeks back took out the remainder of the dozy end of life wasps. Those gits were getting annoying - had 6 or 7 of them nestling on my bathroom light trying to get one morning :/

[22:10:43] <Deucalion> Not sure we get those around here.
[22:10:49] <boru> The bites ressemble the welts from Lyme disease.
[22:11:20] <boru> I think they're native to East Anglia.
[22:11:33] <boru> I'm not sure they exist anywhere else in the world, actuallyt.
[22:12:46] <Deucalion> I don;t mind wasps generally, just when it starts getting chilly at the end of summer and they try to find somewhere warm and dozily bumble about the place randomly stinging for no reason I take umbrage. During the summer they just go about their business unless you annoy them which is kinda how I am too, so I respect that :D
[22:13:56] <boru> Not to worry. I've heard tell of sightings of Japanese hornets in Britain. You'll be wishing for wasps, soon enough.
[22:14:10] <Deucalion> We get gigantic wood wasps in these parts. They look scary as shit and people freak the hell out when they come near but actually they are really docile.
[22:14:53] <Deucalion> Look like a giant wasp / hornet clone but they just bimble about
[22:15:25] <boru> I get the end-of-season annoyance, though.
[22:15:58] <boru> Waking up in the morning, face to face with a few wasps -- "Hello, there. Nice and warm in here, isn't it!"
[22:16:08] <boru> Face to face -- literally.
[22:16:26] <Deucalion> haha
[22:16:29] <boru> Wood wasps, I don't really mind, either.
[22:16:56] <Deucalion> Wood wasps don;t sting or bite they just look scary as hell.
[22:17:05] <boru> Blandford flies are my new pet peeve since moving here. Before that, moths (bane of astronomers) and earwigs.
[22:17:59] <boru> Moths have a terrible penchant for conflating your eyes with light sources if the moon is up.
[22:18:33] <boru> You're looking up at the sky, then *thud*, a very large moth has flown directly into your eye.
[22:19:08] <Deucalion> Get a lot of these http://www.gardensafari.net around here too. They really are beautiful close up... little insect angels I call them in my head :D (White Plume Moth)
[22:19:17] <boru> If you haven't deployed your baffling, you often get big moth shaped blobs on your optical flats...
[22:19:41] <boru> Ah, I haven't seen those before.
[22:19:49] <Deucalion> I'm guessing you're into your star gazing?
[22:19:58] <boru> What gave it away?
[22:20:19] <boru> I don't really do any visual observing anymore, just imaging.
[22:20:26] <boru> Narrowband emissions, mostly.
[22:21:40] <Deucalion> I could probably get into that if I lived somewhere other than the artificial light soaked parts that I do. Even on a clear night only the brightest stars are visible up there :(
[22:22:48] <boru> Aye, LP is pretty awful anywhere near London. What the East of England does have going for it, however, is quite good seeing, due, in part, to the continental airflow.
[22:24:41] <Deucalion> Don't get over that way often. Always strikes me how damn flat the place is when I do... would be ideal for cycling yet I never see any cyclists there :/
[22:25:43] <boru> Heh, indeed. It's quite boring around here, in that respect.
[22:26:02] <boru> I plan on moving to more mountainous surrounds, very soon.
[22:26:10] <Deucalion> Hawaii?
[22:26:17] <boru> Bavaria.
[22:26:40] <Deucalion> Oooh... don;t forget your ledehosen
[22:26:41] <boru> Optionally, the Atacama.

[22:42:36] <Deucalion> Must be nice to have that kind of choice on where to move to
[22:43:34] <boru> Well, I'll go where the work takes me, but I've got some destination criteria.
[22:44:19] <boru> I am thoroughly fed up with my current gig, and coupled with the GBP falling off a cliff, it's time to go.
[22:48:07] <Deucalion> GBP falling off a cliff is fine time to earn some overseas currency and buy GBP on the chep before it ~possibly~ rebounds
[22:48:51] <boru> I'd wait for it to be <€1 before I do that, I think.
[22:49:20] <boru> And at that point, I'd buy USD, and then GBP if it were profitable.
[22:50:03] <boru> Which it probably wouldn't be, what with fees being what they are, etc.
[22:52:54] <Deucalion> All depends what one speculates about brexit. If London loses its place as the clearing centre for € then it's going to painful. Can't see it happening, if anything London will yet again become the least regulated banking / finance place in the West and prosper as the place where less than kosher deals are transacted. Great for banking et al. not so great if they fuck up again like they did in 2008 as it will destroy the GBP
[22:54:04] <boru> Very different political climate than 2008, though. And with Dublin in the mix, I don't know if $W^HBANKERS will opt for the instability of Britain.
[22:54:19] <cmn32480> expenses --
[22:54:22] <cmn32480> expenses--
[22:54:22] <Bender> karma - expenses: -1
[22:55:06] <Deucalion> boru, Dublin = EU, London != EU - I can see a place for both depending what exactly it is that the transaction is.
[22:55:25] <cmn32480> shady ahppens in Londaon
[22:55:30] <cmn32480> up and up happens in Dublin?
[22:55:49] <Deucalion> cmn32480, you just reminded me... I need to get my expenses done too. Fucking ballache
[22:55:56] <cmn32480> yep
[22:55:59] <boru> Dublin is the apex for cowboy financial transactions. The incompetence is up to 11.
[22:56:01] <cmn32480> I'm about 60 days behind
[22:57:39] <Deucalion> Think I'm about the same. I know I have a huge pile of receipts to work through at least. Mebbe now would be a good time... we can be expense bros for the night :D
[22:58:06] <boru> Get a room, you two.
[22:58:10] <Deucalion> lol
[22:58:20] <cmn32480> with two beds, preferably
[22:59:21] <Deucalion> I'm fine on the floor
[22:59:37] <cmn32480> long as we don't ahve to share
[22:59:52] <cmn32480> my laptop gets jealous when I cuddle wiht others
[23:00:06] * Deucalion cuddles mrs cmn32480 :P
[23:00:17] <cmn32480> I'd be careful doing that
[23:00:31] <cmn32480> she's likely to rip yer bollocks off
[23:00:34] * Deucalion runs away bravely
[23:00:48] <boru> Brave Sir Robin!
[23:01:02] <cmn32480> my old lady don't take any sass from anybody
[23:01:08] <Deucalion> looked like a killer rabbit to me, I wasn't taking any chances
[23:01:38] * cmn32480 looks at thte pile of receipts adn starts to cry a little
[23:02:47] <Deucalion> I have to photo mine, upload and then ascribe criteria to them in some assholian system. Takes for fucking ever. No time like the present I guess.
[23:03:37] <cmn32480> I use Neat Receipts... run through a portable scanner, it reads them, categorizes, and pulls the data off. but I have to check each one as it is known to mis a decimal point here and there
[23:04:08] <cmn32480> \/me fires up his GPU for folding adn watches the consumption on the UPS go up 2 notches
[23:04:22] <boru> At least you get to do them in bulk. Our shop requires that you run the bureaucratic gauntlet within a week for _each_ expense. The assholian system conveniently forgets all of the data you've entered if you happen to go AFK for five minutes.
[23:05:07] <Deucalion> All these systems were designed by sadistic bastards is the only conclusion I can come to
[23:05:37] <boru> Well, I posit that this particular one was designed by the legal department (same size as the engineering department, from what I gather)
[23:05:37] <Deucalion> Only a week to submit expenses... fuck that.
[23:06:13] <boru> They seem to influence engineering decisions left and right.
[23:06:22] <cmn32480> a week?
[23:06:39] <cmn32480> I'd be looking for a new job, or forcing a day a week just for that regardless of what else was on tap
[23:06:46] <boru> e.g. disabling IMAP and POP3 on the mail server, because they want to monitor and achive all mail, and someone could delete something!
[23:06:52] <Deucalion> At least I get a company card to charge things to so this is just reconciliation. I'd be bankrupt if I had to pay this stuff out of my own pocket.
[23:07:28] <boru> Well, I've go to extreme measures to ensure I never have expenses. I don't travel, I don't do phone calls, I just go down to stores when I want to procure equipment or supplies etc.
[23:08:44] * cmn32480 thinks he ought to adopt that strategy
[23:08:59] <boru> It's simple, really. You merely need to terrify your colleagues.
[23:09:27] <boru> People prefer to contact me on newsgroups or via email/IRC.
[23:09:57] <boru> I disconnected my phone.
[23:10:12] <boru> Not that I am at my office desk, that much. It's quiter in the lab...
[23:10:32] * cmn32480 needs to go wipe a kid butt
[23:11:00] <boru> Sounds like my job, at the moment.
[23:11:12] <boru> Whereas it's s/kid/manager/
[23:11:21] * boru grumbles.
[23:12:28] <boru> My immediate manager is a bit like Clippy; "It looks like you're trying to be productive..."
[23:13:12] <cmn32480> nah... this is my 4 year old
[23:13:43] <boru> Are they looking for a management position at the moment?
[23:14:12] <cmn32480> un likely.. but she just had to assume the position so I could wipe her butt
[23:16:08] <cmn32480> but if you were closer, I'd put them in for the job... make them earn their keep and all
[23:17:11] <boru> I'm quite sure that a 4 year old would be doing a superior job.
