    Random strangers grabbed my kid when I got groceries. When I asked them what they were doing and to stop they told me, "It's OK mama, see he's smiling." When did it become ok to touch random babies you have never met before?
    Some Japanese tourists took me out of my stroller and to their friends while my parents weren't looking when I was younger because I had blonde hair and that blew their minds apparently.

    Touch my baby as a stranger?
    That's a stabbin'. I would have zero tolerance for that bullshit.
    NOT okay.
  • Is it acceptable to make funny faces at your baby? Because I do that regularly.
  • Making faces at a baby is distinctly different from touching.
  • I just realized that I'm so drunk Ina wednesday that I just bought a beyonce song.

    You better be drunker than that to justify a beyonce purchase.

  • I like Beyonce.
  • At first I thought it was something important. Then I realized it was VERY important. My condolences.

    I'm doing some crypto homework where I'm trying to figure out how to do a secure sum for k parties that's secure against a group of ≤ k-2 colluders. I got frustrated and tried googling the problems, and even the published papers I'm seeing that claim to solve the problem are frequently incredibly stupid and are either trivially broken schemes or have stupid restrictions on which parties can actually collude.

    Tried to play DayZ, but it was a total wash. Never even managed to get into a server proper, the BEST it managed was leaving me sitting at a "Please wait while your character is set up" black screen for half an hour, after which I disconnected and just gave up and uninstalled. I'm sure there's a solution, probably some arcane shit involving painting blood pentacles on the walls and sacrificing a baby turtle, but I can't be fucking arsed. Seriously, fuck that shit. I don't care if it's the greatest mod in the world, if you can't make shit that works out of the box(so to speak), then you can fuck right off.

    You murder everybody.

    And that's why security is a bitch. There aren't many really good solutions just a lot of adequate ones.

    Yeah, I murder everybody.

    Also, there are some damn good solutions right now, and there will remain so as long as quantum computers remain impractical and nobody breaks SHA-2 before SHA-3 becomes standardized.

    Anyways, I could continue on literally forever about crypto stuff - I get nearly as excited about cryptography as WuB does about microbes.

    That will definitely solve your security problem. :P

    I'm talking about security in general, not just cryptography. Sure you can come up with a near unbreakable hash key but with the right information its trivial to decrypt such a key.

  • Fail: Co-worker quit due to the fact that his schedule is changed, there are now 3 people working and 1 in training, my awesome shift is going to be changed (again) to accommodate.

    Was this the standalone? Yeah, I'd just wait until the proper standalone is released later this year (hopefully). It should be a lot more stable.

    Nope, just the mod through steam. Standalone proper isn't available yet, as far as I know.

    And that's why I don't bother with them. Why bother fucking around endlessly just to get a slightly different game, when I already own games that A)I haven't finished, and B)Actually fucking work?
  • I can now add Laura Stevenson and the Cans and another Andrew Jackson Jihad to "list of concerts I've missed because I'm a minor" (the Providence show didn't work out; not doing well enough in school to miss one for this).

    My hard drive completely failed and took all its data with it. There are no backups because I never had the money to purchase another hard drive and not all of my data could fit on DVD-Rs or the like since I also don't have enough money to buy enough physical media to contain it all on. Fortunately all of my documents are saved on Google Drive; but all of the rest of it is gone. I'm literally crying as I write this right now.

  • We've just had our gas meter read. Turns out that we are over are amount quite a bit. Now comes the fun game of trying to get money out of two of the girls I live with girlfriends to cover the difference.
  • This is why we have health inspectors, but at the same time, holy fuck. Pete, prepare to cry.
  • College Board isn't letting me sign up for the SATs without uploading a picture. The page that does this is buggy as hell, and they require it to be head and shoulders only and at least 370x390. This picture of me does not exist. Other pictures of me cannot be cropped to create this picture.

    MS Paint, crop/resize tool?
