Looks like the PI that runs my home automation poo poo got hacked while I was away last week and now my ISP have turned my internet off for what it was doing (and now wont turn it back on until 9am tommorrow  ). I got a lovely warning email yesterday saying something on my IP was trying to telnet to lots of addresses.Now stealing next doors wifi so that I can get some work done, and work out how to reinstall the thing. Not sure how to check what has been done to it, so I guess its time for a flatten and reinstall. I have a full backup of it from a month or so ago (and backups of all the important files from last night that I could restore if needed). Not sure how I know if the full backup I have is un-tainted though?.

Safety Dance posted:Don't put your Pi on the open Internet. That's a recipe for sadness. It only has 2 ports open via NAT - 8080 (which is a web front end with a password that I want to use remotely), and PI:22 was already coming in via external port 222. Have now turned off the SSH rule. Just moved it to my desk (and off the network) and it wont even boot now. looks like the SD card isnt happy.

Safety Dance posted:Might be that someone found an exploit for your web frontend that allows arbitrary code execution or something. That's still a potential attack vector. looks like it might have just been 'hacked' because the root account was enabled and had a default password and someone found my SSH port. I am a linux beginner (I pretty much solely work with Windows stuff) and had assumed that the root account was disabled for any sort of interactive logon (raspbian makes you use a 'pi' account) - but when I restored my backup from around Christmas I could see a previous logon by root from a few days earlier on a remote IP - and could ssh to it myself as root and it has a generic default password. I am now reinstalling it and shall take note of the lessons I have learnt this time and shall move any NAT rules onto more random ports, and enable SSH key based auth (and sort out the root account!). Amusingly, I spend far too much time at work hacking windows devices (often using default passwords which are not strong in education systems!) and one of my jobs for the next few weeks is to finish writing a script that attempts to brute force passwords on all the windows servers, various common windows services and switches inside the corporate network of one of my clients (with permission!)

mariooncrack posted:That sounds like a lot of fun. I would love to be able to get a job like that. My actual work isnt that exciting - I just seem to end up doing loads of entire network migrations, and often get a network dumped in my lap with no support staff left or admin credentials handed over. If I have physical server access - within 5-10 minutes I can get admin credentials on a windows domain and get into the standard UK educational MIS/HR and finance systems. quote:It's probably easier than you think. Yeah it is. So many things have default passwords. 88h88 posted:I used to live with someone who had a $600 a month weed habit. She was perma-stoned pretty much which was how she was when we met so I knew no different. As for time wasting, she spent a lot of time baking whilst stoned which wasn't a bad thing. Surely the correct description is 'baking whilst baked'

Cakefool posted:How much do you weigh? I suspect more than you, so thats my 0.3 second advantage gone! Having just checked how much my car weighs, when I'm in it I am almost exactly 10% of the gross vehicle weight. Probably over 10% if I've not had a poo poo that morning.

Decided to go for a walk with a couple of friends and their daughter today. Ended up being a lot longer than my guestimate from a 2min look at the map last night, and despite the fact that it has started drying out in the UK over the last week some fields were still muddy quagmires with ankle depth mud in places. The 9 1/2 year old managed 11 miles in adverse conditions without complaint  even after the part where it took 3 of us to extract her out of the middle of a lake of mud and cow poo poo where she was stuck solid!Raluek posted:If he's threatening to beat your rear end, it sounds like you're thinking more about the future of his son than he is. Yeah. Sounds heartless but its not your problem. If he is poo poo at his job and also threatening you then you should let him go. Or talk to him formally (along with your boss) and give him one chance (assuming you haven't already!), and then get rid of him if he fucks up again. Just make sure it doesn't end up as lots of chances.

Life without milk and cheese would not be worth living! I need to actually spend more than 2 days at home so I can make some of your proper pizza dough. By the end of next week I am going to be at the grand total of 4 nights at home over the last 4 weeks.

KozmoNaut posted:Sludge isn't my primary preference, but they sound pretty good. And metal shows are always fun, some just require more beer than others. This is also my stance on metal shows I do however dream of a metal show where it isn't quite so loud and they have a few seats somewhere at the back/round the edge so you can sit down for a bit sometimes. I am becoming an old man... Rhyno posted:Yeah I foolishly thought that 37 year old Rhyno could hang like 25 year old Rhyno. I haven't puked on my birthday in 16 years. I have just been away on a mates stag weekend and managed to not be sick or overly hungover despite how much I drank. I am not sure how since I am usually bad after a night out now. Did a lot of walking between pubs rather than sitting in one place - maybe that is the key? Pham Nuwen posted:Wife just paid off her car loan, we're now totally debt-free! Compared to 6 months ago that means about $500-600/mo extra straight to the bank; we've paid off 2 sets of student loans and a car since then. Feels good. Well done! - Now go buy a house....

Tonight I managed to set off a car alarm in a multi-storey car park using the power of my exhaust. In a 1.0 3cyl Toyota. I had the window down at the time - it sounded like a real car! I guess this means that it has now progressed from 'sounding sporty' to 'proper hosed', and I should probably fix it..

KozmoNaut posted:I can't remember the last time I was truly happy and content with the world. Probably back when I was like 5 years old or something, and I thought the world wasn't a horribly complicated pile of steaming poo poo. Music works exactly the same for me too. A couple of beers and a loud gig makes me happy and content for the duration! I've been to see Enter Shikari tonight in a small, sweaty venue in Wales. was great fun

meatpimp posted:Exactly. As implemented in the US, chipped cards just take more time without providing any additional security, except perhaps making skimmers obsolete. Your banks are strange. 75% of my purchases over in the UK are now not even chip and pin but contactless (against any of my bank debit/credit cards which all do it). Its quicker and easier than cash. Are things like Apple Pay not starting to be used in the US now? are your banks just not going to bother making any effort and just let people move to contactless using their phones?

BrokenKnucklez posted:British insults are always better. Most Americans would say "dumb rear end" or something else. When you call some one a spoon, that really ups the game. You also have to deliver the insult correctly so that you don't sound like a proper loving spoon yourself

The experience will taint all your memories of how good they used to be and make you sad. Just imagine eating a tasty cream egg - but then replace all the nice chocolate with poo poo chocolate.
