10:30 Taoki joined #minetest
10:30 Taoki Hi. Is the Minetest forum moving or upgrading? Logins seem to have broken x_x
10:33 Taoki Yeah I think the same passwords no longer work. Should I send a request for a reset for my forum account?
10:57 Taoki Um... it seems the person who advised I email him to reset account passwords is OldCoder (on Twitter). Given what I remember from last time I'm nervous to even speak to him. He's already talking there about people "seeing the truth" and what not...
10:57 Taoki Can anyone else help with the password procedure thingie please?
11:04 DI3HARD139 joined #minetest
11:11 Taoki Yeah it's definitely him. Getting dragged into some weird stuff again after he messaged me. I don't want to have to email him since it seriously creeps me out to talk to him now... please let me know who else can help with the forum issue.
11:14 rubenwardy Make sure it is Minetest.net
11:14 rubenwardy Then just use the password reset feature
11:14 rubenwardy I can trigger one of you like, TC01
11:14 rubenwardy Taoki:
11:14 rubenwardy Lol
11:15 Taoki Oh... it was minetest.org
11:15 rubenwardy Lol
11:15 rubenwardy Make sure you reset anywhere else that you use the password you just entered
11:15 rubenwardy Consider it compromised
11:15 Taoki Oh yeah, it still works on minetest.net
11:15 Taoki I haven't reset my password on either forum in ages
11:16 Taoki Just a few login attempts in the org site
11:17 Taoki So yeah no neet to trigger on minetest.net I'm good there. I just wasn't aware the forums had split.
11:20 Taoki rubenwardy: Is there risk of a password leak for old accounts? Someone mentioned a DDoS attack or something.
11:20 rubenwardy No
11:20 rubenwardy If you submit onto the malicious site then you have given the password to the malicious site
11:20 Taoki Okay. I tried logging into the minetest.org forum with my old passwords, and I'm not sure if those are logged.
11:21 rubenwardy Assume they are
11:21 rubenwardy He didn't get any passwords, emails, or ips though
11:21 Taoki OldCoder seems to be an admin on that one. I don't know what to expect from him since he's acting really crazy.
11:21 rubenwardy C55 made a semi-public backup of the forums which oldcoder had access to
11:21 Taoki Okay. So PHPBB logs the attempt but not the password you entered, correct?
11:21 rubenwardy All passwords were removed
11:21 rubenwardy No, assume the password was logged
11:22 Taoki Damn :(
11:22 rubenwardy You should be using separate passwords for separate sites though
11:22 rubenwardy Right
11:22 Taoki It was two passwords I use everywhere and can't change so.
11:22 Taoki It's hard to use a differnet password for every site.
11:22 rubenwardy Password manager!
11:23 rubenwardy More secure than not using one, for this exact reason
11:23 Taoki Really though, why would PHPBB log every invalid password you enter?
11:23 rubenwardy The most common way an account is compromised is by passwords being compromised on other sites through SQL leaks and such
11:24 rubenwardy Not through brute force
11:24 Taoki That sounds like a crazy thing for the forum to log by default.
11:24 rubenwardy Phpbb doesn't by default, but you're forgetting who hosts it
11:24 Taoki Okay. He probably didn't mod the forum itself.
11:24 rubenwardy He may have though
11:25 rubenwardy And he may log post requests anyway
11:58 Fixer joined #minetest
12:01 ChimneySwift it's safe to say that it's compromised though, it'd really not worth risking it at least for anything important

12:42 Tux[Qyou] joined #minetest
13:02 ChimneySwift joined #minetest
13:15 Taoki Well... at least I got to do a nice security checkup with this occasion. Changed several passwords to be sure he couldn't have gotten it.
13:16 Taoki Doubt he'd be crazy enough to try breaking accounts even if he decided to turn on me in his mind for whatever reason. That is if he even modded PHPBB itself to snoop on passwords.

13:19 twoelk oops, you went near the oc dangerzone, off to decontamination you go
13:30 IhrFussel joined #minetest

13:58 Taoki I wonder if people could and should be warned about minetest.org being an unsafe copy of the forum. I don't want to be mean as I couldn't OldCoder as an evil person or anything... however his behavior is scary enough that I worry he may pose a threat to the community if for instance people attempting to login there could have their passwords leaked to him.
13:59 Krock joined #minetest
14:04 air anyone using the same password over multiple sites deserves anything they get
14:06 Taoki Good luck remembering 100 passwords then
14:07 Krock My password is hunter2
14:08 est31 Krock: I only see ****
14:08 Krock weird. this shouldn't contain any compression
14:09 air Taoki: I use randomized passwords, not possible to remember even one of them
14:10 Taoki Sounds good but you're in trouble if you lose wherever you saved them or someone else gets a hold of that file.
14:10 Taoki Or if you're away from the device where you saved them and try to login from another device.
14:11 air you need to learn some security, because none of that is an issue
14:12 Taoki How is none of that an issue I wonder...
14:12 air backups and encrypted distributed password wallet
14:14 air you could use something like lastpass to manage all that for you
14:15 Taoki Ah. Interesting
14:15 Taoki So it like remembers passwords for every site, and you can search the whole thing to find yours?
14:15 rubenwardy Password manager, TC01
14:15 rubenwardy Taoki:
14:15 Taoki Like type in www.whatever.com and it tells you "your password for account X is Y"?
14:15 rubenwardy Also, encryption
14:15 air you dont need to search, it automatically fills it in
14:16 rubenwardy Or you can click to do it
14:16 rubenwardy But it which site you're on
14:16 air well, you should click to do it, but then it auto fills in
14:16 air never use auto fill without needing to click, that can leak info without you knowing
14:17 Taoki How does it automatically fill it in? I assume that requires some browser integration. Do they integrate with Chromium and Firefox?
14:17 air yes
14:17 Taoki Nice. I should totally find one for KDE then.
14:17 Taoki No time now but maybe in the next weeks I'll look into it. Made a mental note now.
14:17 rubenwardy It's a browser plugin, usually
14:18 Taoki Would be fun if I could integrate something standard with KDE
14:19 air why kde?
14:19 Taoki Cuz it's what I use so then it would be system wide :P But I guess a browser plugin works too since I mainly only use Firefox.
14:19 air you only need it for web sites, so it only needs to plugin to a browser
14:20 Taoki My biggest worry is where those passwords are stored, encrypted as they may be. Unless the password file is stored locally in the browser cache AND encrypted, I wouldn't trust anything online based.
14:20 Taoki Okay
14:20 air the wallet is stored remotely
14:20 air you can install the extension on any computer and access your wallet
14:21 Taoki That makes it very scary to use for me. Unless it's a deentralized open-source system where you can see the code and how the encryption works.
14:21 rubenwardy It's stored using strong encryptil
14:21 air encryption happens locally, they cant help if you forget the master password
14:21 rubenwardy So it's fine to go online
14:21 Taoki Until it's stored with encryption the server might find some ways to get a hold of them.
14:21 Taoki Okay
14:21 Taoki I will look into this later yeah
14:21 air but you need a good wallet, only a few are good
14:29 Taoki Firefox does have a builtin PM. But it doesn't seem to be distributed
14:30 Taoki Actually it might work through Firefox Sync
14:31 Taoki No such thing as importing / exporting with local files however
14:39 twoelk ooh, master password - sounds like a nice single point of failure to get completely screwed :-)
14:43 dzerk joined #minetest
14:43 twoelk I learned a long time ago that security never makes a job easier and tends to become a burden quite out of scale for otherwise simple tasks - and yet the world has become such that you need even more security than any science fiction author could have ever imagined
14:44 Krock AES being too strong for weak mobile devices
14:50 Taoki twoelk: That's another thing... the risk of losing the wallet key itself and someone else stealing it.
14:50 Taoki I guess the best idea is what others have suggested: Long sentences that only you can remember the words of.

17:16 AspireMint anyone knows why JT2 is green in server list? o.O
17:17 AspireMint oh wait, nvm
17:19 Krock oh nice. if the server list allows control characters then you can actually colorize it
17:21 * Krock tests
17:21 AspireMint im using script to colorize favourite server, i forgot its still running after years..
17:22 AspireMint yes, for old / new versions of mt or official / unofficial / stable it might be cool
17:24 Krock !up ente.kak.si 34617
17:24 MinetestBot ente.kak.si:34617 seems to be down
17:33 Krock AspireMint: I found out that the server list doesn't trim color codes, but the server list does
17:33 Krock err. the server list server doesn't - mainmenu does
