09:09 | | * McMartin convinces Visual Studio to compile a working, running C program with no linked C runtime. |
09:12 | <&McMartin> | Windows's idea of syscalls actually mixes very well with this; you don't actually need libc to do anything of importance, because all would-be syscalls look like calls to stuff Unix would file under section 2 of the manual... |
09:13 | <&McMartin> | ... but none of those functions *require* libc or its equivalent, and indeed use an entirely different ABI if you're at the asm level |

17:12 | <@gnolam> | So that was the spam talked about in the network message I assume? |
17:13 | <@ErikMesoy> | One channel I'm in had four of them the past twelve hours. |
17:13 | <@gnolam> | So what does the actually link go to? Malware? Spam? Crazy rants? Joe Job? |
17:13 | <@Tamber> | My channel elsenet has had waves joining fast enough that it's hit the join rate limit at least once. |
17:13 | <@Tamber> | It's a joe-job, looks like, aimed at some of the Freenode staff. |

17:24 | <@ErikMesoy> | The odd thing is, one of the early prototypes actually had a chance of interesting me when it only posted the one line link to Encyclopedia Dramatica and then got hit by Wrath of Bot calling it "spammer" for a line I'd seen once. |
17:25 | <@ErikMesoy> | That looked like it could have been overzealous admin cracking down on info leaking out in unaligned sources. But spamming four lines every hour or two across multiple channels is a great way of ruining all your own credibility. |
17:26 | <~Vornicus> | the conspiracy theories run super thick here - there's mention specifically of Pizzagate on the ED page |
17:27 | <~Vornicus> | (which I got from an authoritative source before I saw the spammers using it too) |

17:29 | <@Tamber> | and over, and over, and over again. |
17:31 | <~Vornicus> | also, because of pizzagate connection, it is not entirely unlikely that the accusatory "evidence" includes cp, so. Don't Click That Shit. |
17:33 | <@Tamber> | The linked 'evidence' is textual blog entries 'confessing' Those Sorts of Habits. One of the blogs was created in the last few days according to the domain info, but has been made to look older; the other may have at one time been a legitimate blog, but gotten compromised. |
17:34 | <@Tamber> | But yeah, that's the message they're trying to push: that Freenode's staff is all some giant CP ring. |

17:38 | <@gnolam> | So a particularly insidious joe job then. |
17:38 | <@abudhabi> | I mean, it wouldn't surprise me, but IDC. |
17:39 | <@ErikMesoy> | Pizzagate has this weird vibe of three feds in a trenchcoat pretending to be a rebel. |
17:41 | <@Tamber> | gnolam, yeah, p. much. |
17:41 | <@Tamber> | Freenode seems to be the target of a fair few joe-jobs, but this one is particularly persistent and annoying. |
17:41 | <~Vornicus> | pizzagate is three 4channers in a trenchcoat pretending to be detectives |
17:42 | <@Tamber> | hah, yeah. |
17:43 | <@ErikMesoy> | that too, but also three feds in a trenchcoat pretending to be 4chan |
17:43 | <@macdjord|slep> | Irritatingly, one of the lines that's getting spammed is a HTML <script> tag, and it keeps causing my antivirus to quarentine my IRC logfiles. |
17:44 | <@Tamber> | oh dear. |
17:44 | <@Tamber> | (The EICAR test string is another good one for that. ¬¬) |
17:46 | < Kizor> | On that note, Tamber, can I ask what sort of safety measures you take before opening links like that? |
17:47 | <@Tamber> | mostly torbrowser with no script execution, and so forth. |
17:49 | < Kizor> | Fair enough. I have a Win XP VM kicking around, would it do the trick if I opened the link in that VM, then restored the VM to a previous state? |
17:51 | <@Tamber> | Hmm. Possibly? |
17:51 | <@gnolam> | Don't open suspicious links on XP, period. Even if it's in a VM. Even if you restore it afterwards, you could still become a member of a botnet until you do. |
17:52 | <@ErikMesoy> | How do I get killbot to "watch" other channels like #exalted where there's another of those bots now? |
17:52 | <@gnolam> | VirtualBox is free, Linux is free. |
17:52 | <@gnolam> | So set yourself up a VM with an updated OS instead. |

17:53 | <~Vornicus> | ErikMesoy: killbot is a script attached to TheWatcher |
17:53 | <~Vornicus> | it only helps in channels he's in |
17:56 | <@abudhabi> | TheWatcher: You are invited to sit in with us in #Exalted ;) |
17:56 | < Kizor> | Tamber: Possibly? |
17:57 | <@Tamber> | See what gnolam said. Plus there's also ways to escape from the VM. |
17:57 | < Kizor> | Ahh. That's what I was curious about - so an infected VM can pull off infecting the host machine? |
17:58 | < Kizor> | (My old-timey Mac emulators won't even have to do that, they've got read/write access to my files. So if I get my HDDs nuked by a 1995 Mac virus, I'll have had it coming.) |
18:01 | <@macdjord|slep> | TheWatcher: Hrm. You have your alternate account, TheShadow, to provide logging services for channels you aren't in, right? How about setting up another alt, TheGuardian or something, which runs your KillBot script? Set it to automatically accept any channel invites it receives, so people can add spambot protection to their channels without requiring your direct intervention. |
18:05 | <@TheWatcher> | macdjord|slep: it's certainly something I'll look into |
18:05 | | macdjord|slep is now known as macdjord |
18:05 | <@TheWatcher> | although my preferred option would be to make it into an anope module, rather than an irssi script, so it can monitor server-side, and potentially block messages being relayed at all |
18:06 | <@TheWatcher> | Just that whole "time" thing |
18:06 | <@TheWatcher> | :/ |
18:06 | <@macdjord> | TheWatcher: Perfect, enemy, good, etc. |
18:06 | <@TheWatcher> | Yeah |
18:08 | < Kizor> | Tamber: Yep, found stuff about VM escape vulnerabilities in VMWare, VirtualBox et al. Fascinating, thanks. |

20:15 | <@abudhabi> | I'm experimenting with placement of the one I have. First spot may not have been good, since there were internet outages, despite there being connectivity through the main wiki net. |
20:35 | <&VirusJTG> | there are issues with repeaters, yes |
20:36 | <&VirusJTG> | often they may disconnect if their single to noise ration with the original wifi source is too weak.+ |
20:37 | <&VirusJTG> | if operating on the 2.4ghz spectrum you will also decrease the available wireless bandwidth to clients, this is mainly due to channel limitations of that spectrum. But, most home networks are small enough it shouldn't be an issue. |
