[04:06:14] tr [S] <~phish> did you download palworld yet ComputerTech?

[04:06:16] tr [S] <@wez> Hi phish!

[04:06:16] tr [S] <~phish> hi wez

[04:06:28] tr [S] <@wez> What is palworld?

[04:06:51] tr [S] <@wez> counter strike 2?

[04:06:54] tr [S] <@wez> I have that one

[04:07:07] tr [S] <@wez> you need to update it :)

[04:07:19] tr [S] <@wez> redownload 36 GB, WWWWEEEEEEEEE!!!

[04:07:28] tr [S] <@wez> ALl for a name change

[04:08:18] tr [S] <@wez> Do you have t hooked up to icloud?

[07:13:18] tr [S] <Zamir> hi

[10:23:38] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> hello Suntop

[10:24:25] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Which is the best program for backing up Windows 10 on a desktop PC that has Win installed on an SSD, Macrium Reflect or Acronis True Image?

[10:25:25] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> But I already have Macrium Reflect and Acronis True Image fully installed on my PC

[10:25:57] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I actually find backing up my OS on Windows 10 easier than on Linux Mint

[10:26:29] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Yeah, because I find Macrium Reflect easy to use

[10:26:50] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I can't use Macrium Reflect to backup Linux OS

[10:28:05] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Yeah, I use a lot of freeware on Windows 10, so they're probably data mining me everywhere

[10:29:10] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Last time I tried downloading CloneZilla, uBlock Origin and uMatrix warned me about privacy and security issues

[10:29:31] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Or it might have been Firefox blocking the download

[10:29:48] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I can't remember, that was like 5 years ago

[10:30:09] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> But I've never had any problems with Macrium Reflect

[10:30:47] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I have experience using Macrium Reflect, but I also found Acronis True Image easy for backups

[10:33:52] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> omg, yeah, so you can backup with CloneZilla from a rescue disk or a bootable USB stick?

[10:35:01] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I wonder if Macrium Reflect was working better with Windows 7 or Windows XP, as compared to Windows 10

[10:35:18] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I've never tested a macrium reflect backup with Win 10

[10:35:50] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Is it safe to download software from SourceForge?

[10:36:18] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I have high speed internet

[10:37:25] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> and I can also check their files using VirusTotal

[10:37:45] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> and use VirusTotal to check their URL

[10:38:33] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I'm too damned lazy to use the checksums

[10:40:06] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> What about Securi Site Check or Jotti's Malware Scan?

[10:42:23] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Yeah, I'm getting into some bad habits, and it probably started with installing and using Windows 10 instead of Linux Mint

[10:43:04] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Maintaining security and privacy on Windows 10 has become an almost impossible task

[10:43:57] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I just installed Linux Mint 20 onto an old laptop at work

[10:47:29] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> A bigger issue for me is I can't install one of the Windows updates without expanding my Recovery partition

[10:48:28] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> it's the KB5034441 update for Windows 10 Pro V22H2

[10:49:20] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> and before fixing my recovery partition, I'm going to backup the Windows 10 OS probably with Macrium Reflect

[10:49:49] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> But I got like 95 GB of unallocated space available right beside the Recovery partition

[10:52:37] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> So CloneZilla because of the way it boots allows you to backup the whole OS and all its files, which is different from the way Acronis True Image and Macrium Reflect backup your Windows OS?

[12:35:44] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> How come my Disk Management says all my partitions are "Basic Data Partitions" and not "Primary Partitions"?

[12:51:36] tr [T] <login> how expensive is nutella per gram where you are?

[12:53:41] tr [T] <login> what's kindgirls.com anyway?

[12:54:20] tr [T] <login> yes, that image is not safe for work

[12:55:31] tr [T] <login> i mean, that is not a normal picture by any means

[13:13:44] tr [S] <@wez> Good news!

[13:21:05] tr [S] <@wez> :D

[13:37:07] tr [T] <login> esjay: i tried Floorp, but it doesn't allow setting https://mwmbl.org/?q= to be my search engine

[14:49:38] tr [S] <~Dragon> it appears that ComputerTech is really into fake tits

[16:04:54] tr [T] <login> ComputerTech: which work place would allow that, yours?

[16:05:29] tr [T] <login> franstam: how nice is singapore?

[16:06:27] tr [T] <login> is that just ai, ComputerTech?

[16:06:48] tr [T] <login> nice temperature Mikoolo

[16:07:10] tr [T] <login> not too hot, just comfortable for a tee and a jumper

[16:11:54] tr [T] <login> or, as they're known down under, thongs and shorts

[16:14:20] tr [T] <login> Mikoolo: anything else at home?

[16:14:25] tr [T] <login> frozen vegetables and noodles?

[16:14:34] tr [T] <login> with soy sauce? that's sure to work

[16:14:44] tr [T] <login> not too late

[16:14:54] tr [T] <login> so you won't be eating any potato chips?

[16:15:10] tr [T] <login> .w sf

[16:15:20] tr [T] <login> oh, i can't operate the Internets

[19:32:10] tr [T] <login> what's going on here?

[19:42:11] tr [T] <login> what's hungary's problem anyway?

[19:45:21] tr [S] <~Dragon> hangry

[19:48:18] tr [T] <login> sachet or made by self from tomato, esjay?

[19:50:29] tr [T] <login> they sell soup at the pharmacy? based

[19:50:41] tr [T] <login> it is a 'get well soon' food

[19:56:44] tr [T] <login> oh yeah, didn't consider that

[19:57:23] tr [T] <login> life is meaningless Ahsoka, a comedy

[19:57:50] tr [T] <login> just have fun and don't hold any strict goals (themes and aspirations are fine)

[19:58:01] tr [T] <login> don't do it ComputerTech

[19:58:30] tr [T] <login> what other stuff goes on here that is condemnable?

[19:58:41] tr [T] <login> apple cider, CT?

[19:58:51] tr [T] <login> put down the beer, lad

[19:58:55] tr [T] <login> look at your liver

[19:59:11] tr [T] <login> drinking weekly = beer belly = failed flirting

[19:59:25] tr [T] <login> yeah, i missed that, esjay, though not surprised

[19:59:37] tr [T] <login> deadly is deadly that way

[19:59:49] tr [T] <login> dilute the beer boy

[19:59:59] tr [T] <login> he's going to have a strong liver :P

[20:00:52] tr [T] <login> hello Iamfoxy, how was your workweek?

[20:01:19] tr [T] <login> it's drunk grouptexting to his channel, Sander

[20:03:24] tr [T] <login> so, who's the most stressed right now?

[20:03:52] tr [T] <login> or pretty stressed perhaps

[20:03:57] tr [T] <@Harzilein> hi

[20:04:02] tr [T] <@Harzilein> .seen demonic

[20:04:04] tr [T] <login> hi Harzilein

[20:04:07] tr [T] <@Harzilein> .seen demonic/rizon

[20:04:12] tr [T] <@Harzilein> .seen demonic/efnet

[20:04:22] tr [T] <login> won't work Harzilein

[20:04:24] tr [T] <@Harzilein> :3

[20:05:00] tr [T] <login> censorship, especially in comedy, is not a good thing

[20:05:11] tr [S] <GIANNI> ciao!

[20:06:10] tr [T] <login> then again, what israel's government-leadership is doing in non-Israel-occupied Palestine is a war crime

[20:06:25] tr [S] <GIANNI> dopo anni e bello ritornare

[20:06:59] tr [T] <login> yeah h4

[20:07:20] tr [T] <login> where are the rules?

[20:07:24] tr [T] <login> no sex too yes foxy

[20:08:05] tr [T] <login> point 2, right?

[20:08:36] tr [T] <login> the selective enforcement of the rules makes it possible for speech to flourish here

[20:09:14] tr [T] <login> it means, esjay, that there is 'law-based governance' instead of 'rule of law'

[20:09:39] tr [T] <login> without it, we'd all be off

[20:09:46] tr [T] <login> or be talking about the weather

[20:10:03] tr [T] <login> ^ correct

[20:10:25] tr [T] <login> > tr is up in your butt:

[20:10:58] tr [T] <login> it's just that 'tr' is a bot that relays messages it reads from another server

[20:11:06] tr [T] <login> you look like AlterEgo_/rizon to me

[20:11:51] tr [T] <login> i am communicating from inside the event horizon of a black hole

[20:12:12] tr [T] <login> thinner than a spaghetti strap

[20:12:36] tr [T] <login> esjay: i am with her now, but will be going away (sadly) in a couple of days or so

[20:12:53] tr [T] <login> i turned out worse than my mum raised me tbh

[20:13:36] tr [T] <login> it's in the eye of the beholder, Panik

[20:13:46] tr [T] <login> h4 is completely correct there

[20:14:31] tr [T] <login> Sander: &Sander/rizon

[20:14:42] tr [T] <login> esjay: your joke went over my head

[20:14:49] tr [T] <login> did you call my mother a black hole?

[20:15:05] tr [T] <login> rather, that i was still in her womb

[20:15:24] tr [T] <login> Panik: why not still?

[20:15:37] tr [T] <login> German standup is funny

[20:16:00] tr [T] <login> h4: esjay didn't say that - she said i should get away from my mum because i'm still inside the event horizon of a black hole

[20:16:17] tr [T] <login> event horizon of a black hole --> still stuck in the womb with no birth

[20:16:31] tr [T] <login> it's a good joke, very intelligent joke

[20:17:07] tr [T] <login> don't call attention to it, Panik

[20:17:12] tr [T] <login> or it may lead to more panic

[20:17:55] tr [T] <login> from my reading of the rules, just prior admin permission

[20:18:04] tr [T] <login> which server do you want to link, Panik?

[20:18:38] tr [T] <login> what does an SRA do?

[20:18:51] tr [T] <login> why should they be spelled any differently?

[20:19:01] tr [T] <login> would save a character and everybody understands the difference

[20:19:18] tr [T] <login> yet the 'I'm' and 'can't' has fancy apostrophes

[20:19:21] tr [T] <login> i.e., iPhone

[20:19:59] tr [T] <login> Mikoolo: you're nice -> you are nice; your niece -> you know what i mean

[20:20:21] tr [T] <login> Mikoolo: i kid

[20:21:19] tr [T] <login> which isp is it, Panik?

[20:21:23] tr [T] <login> h4: which cheeks

[20:22:04] tr [T] <login> take a photo before/after Panik

[20:22:12] tr [T] <login> no need to share it with us

[20:22:22] tr [T] <login> here's a book for you, ComputerTech: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_Patterns

[20:22:29] tr [T] <login> do cats eat carrots?

[20:22:31] tr [T] <login> TIL

[20:22:42] tr [T] <login> sorry to hear you have a stalker, phonekait

[20:23:18] tr [T] <login> why is he stalking?

[20:24:01] tr [T] <login> sounds like someone better off not knowing i exist

[20:24:29] tr [T] <login> i do value a bit of anonymity - that's why my nickname is so generic

[20:24:39] tr [T] <login> is he on here?

[20:25:01] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I have a UEFI install of Windows 10 Pro that uses the GPT disk layout

[20:25:22] tr [T] <login> if she's daydreaming a stalker, then it might be paranoia

[20:25:36] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> and I wish to know if my boot loader uses GRUB

[20:25:43] tr [T] <login> or the opposite if she likes the stalker, pronoia

[20:26:25] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Before I do anything, I want to learn more about disk partitioning and how protective MBR and GRUB applies to my OS

[20:26:41] tr [T] <login> what is protective MBR, Finrod_Faithful?

[20:27:13] tr [T] <login> oh, i see, Finrod_Faithful

[20:27:28] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> It is used to prevent disk tools which are not GPT aware form corruption GPT partitions

[20:27:41] tr [T] <login> it just puts an MBR condom over a GPT partition, essentially

[20:27:48] tr [T] <login> so sex with a disk tool doesn't lead to pregnancy

[20:28:18] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Protective MBR contains a fake partition of type EFI GPT which spans the entire disk up to 2 TB

[20:28:33] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> https://postimg.cc/DJYvv5yd

[20:28:35] tr [T] <login> h4: appreciate the compliment very much

[20:28:45] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> that's what all my disks look like

[20:28:57] tr [T] <login> i was tempted to open that link, but won't it record my ip address Finrod_Faithful?

[20:29:19] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> See Disk 1, the SSD on which Windows 10 Pro V22H2 is installed

[20:29:24] tr [T] <login> that was some superb social engineering, Finrod_Faithful

[20:30:07] tr [T] <login> ComputerTech: which is the best brand concrete pump?

[20:30:38] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I just posted a screenshot of my Disk Management onto PostImage

[20:31:12] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> then I posted the link here, so you can see all my drives and their partitions

[20:31:14] tr [T] <login> which is owned by SANY, right ComputerTec?

[20:31:27] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> social engineering?

[20:31:51] tr [T] <login> i.e. using social skills to trick someone into open a link or doing something that compromises them, Finrod_Faithful

[20:32:01] tr [T] <login> ComputerTech: i wonder why they sold to SANY

[20:32:26] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Anyway, I'm trying to learn more about disk partitioning with GPT before I backup my OS and expand the Recovery Partition

[20:32:40] tr [T] <login> doing the restaurant business?

[20:32:59] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Most of my experience is with MS DOS layout with Linux and not GPT with Windows

[20:33:00] tr [T] <login> basically a tax consultant, right ComputerTech?

[20:33:25] tr [T] <login> it isn't as easy to do 'hollywood accounting' for restaurants, ComputerTech

[20:33:38] tr [T] <login> ComputerTech: the transition is so easy

[20:33:55] tr [T] <login> have you moved also to LibreOffice and the Floorp browser?

[20:34:00] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I'm keeping things simple, and I have plenty of space for expanding the Recovery Partition as you can see from the Disk Management of Disk 1

[20:34:21] tr [T] <login> ComputerTech: how do you even separate each tax receipt for 'alcohol' and 'non-alcohol'

[20:34:32] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Look at Disk 1 at the end of the disk: there's 93 GB of unallocated space: https://postimg.cc/DJYvv5yd

[20:34:39] tr [T] <login> unless you have an integrated system that creates csvs of those

[20:34:54] tr [T] <login> a beer at the bar with chips

[20:35:27] tr [T] <login> KnownSyntax: what can you do but get used to it?

[20:35:32] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Keeping things simple means I'm only using my Windows computer for work and mostly word processing, and I'm not dual booting

[20:35:34] tr [T] <login> But WPS Office is chinese

[20:35:40] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> I'm running Linux on separate PCs

[20:35:41] tr [T] <login> and is very gimmicky

[20:36:10] tr [T] <login> that's wonderful h4

[20:36:18] tr [T] <login> a physical jail or a chroot jail?

[20:36:37] tr [T] <login> yeah, just had to clarify for my own purposes

[20:36:59] tr [T] <login> what about netbsd, h4?

[20:37:06] tr [T] <login> net, free or open?

[20:37:09] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> Is my boot loader GRUB, assuming I'm using a GPT disk layout with Windows 10 Pro?

[20:37:52] tr [T] <login> Finrod_Faithful: you'd have to look for the GRUB magic number

[20:38:31] tr [T] <Finrod_Faithful> hello computerTech

[20:42:07] tr [T] <login> isn't being called a babe by another guy just the biggest ego booster?

[20:42:35] tr [T] <login> i'm afk for now, see you 8 hours later

[20:42:36] tr [T] <login> or maybe 18 hours later

[20:42:43] tr [T] <login> yup, esjay bb

[20:43:33] tr [T] <login> Finrod_Faithful: dd if=/dev/sda bs=1 count=4 skip=383

[20:43:36] tr [T] <login> that should print GRUB
