Lucifer333 has joined #arpnetworks mercutio: rackmount servers are generally annoyingly noisy nathani plett: Which is why you lock them away in other people's buildings and do everything possible via idrac/ipmi etc mercutio: yeah
and wear ear plugs when going to dc plett: I prefer noise cancelling headphones, but yes mercutio: do noise canceling head phones actually protect your ears? plett: Datacentre noise isn't loud enough to cause hearing damage mercutio: ahh ok yuicat: there's an odd zen factor to camping w/ a crash cart for hours on end, milk tea in hand, nothing but fan noise filling the air~ plett: Well, the DCs I've been in aren't yuicat: I've never used ear plugs :o mercutio: it's enough to give me a headache :) yuicat: that's what the milk tea is for ^^ mercutio: but i suppose that doesn't mean it's damaging so much as agitating plett: Yes, just bloody annoying
And remarkably fatiguing mercutio: yeah it's amazing how much difference it makes at the end when you have ear plugs
