07:52 AM aandrew: rue_mohr> well, not counting firefox
07:59 AM aandrew: that made me LOL for reals
08:07 AM spline: rue_mohr, what is its chrometabflop rating?
08:08 AM spline: I had a good meme on that like .. machines will no longer be sold using amounts of ram, cpu frequency or cores, but with a "# of Chrome Tabs" you can open and not have mouse/video lag navigating them
08:09 AM spline: https://beebom.com/youtuber-opened-6000-chrome-tabs-mac-pro/
08:31 AM rue_mohr: :)
08:44 AM aandrew: I discovered yesterday that both chrome and safari do not allow you to connect to several ports and there's no nice way to disable it
08:44 AM aandrew: i.e. http://foo:6668 will fail
08:45 AM spline: connect to several ports?
08:50 AM aandrew: well no, say you have an rpi with a http server running on port 6668; you own't be able to connect to it
09:19 AM rue_mohr: huh
09:24 AM spline: oh it doesn't like protocol:port?
09:24 AM spline: non-standard at least
09:25 AM spline: I swore that works since I connect into the Ubiquiti admin interface on 8443
10:48 AM aandrew: spline: only for specific ports. :1234 is fine, :6668 is not, for example
12:13 PM polprog: i wonder what makes 6668 special
12:41 PM aandrew: it's one of several ports related with C&C networks on IRC
02:11 PM spline: that's odd
02:11 PM spline: both are blocking and its not the machine itself?
02:23 PM aandrew: well I assume malware hopens a hidden browser window to 6668 or something
03:07 PM polprog: c&c?
03:45 PM polprog: two months ago that would be half of the channel gone
06:47 PM polprog: https://polprog.net/rozne1/ircjunk/various/gratingthingy.jpg

07:07 PM spline: Fusion 360
07:12 PM polprog: no idea, friend uses fusion 360 and i could too as i think i have it for free as a student, but ive only used Freecad and sketchup
