plett: mnathani: The first thing I did when moving from screen to tmux was to rebind tmux to be on ctrl-a. Not only because that's what I'm already used to, but ctrl-b is a bit of a stretch ***: LT has joined #arpnetworks mike-burns: Fun fact: the ctrl-b binding was chosen because the tmux author built tmux while inside of GNU screen. mnathani: mike-burns: That is funny
plett: I prefer not to modify default bindings so I dont have to spend time configuring tmux when using a new *nix box plett: mike-burns: I picked ctrl-x as a "not ctrl-a" prefix for when I need to deal with nested screens mike-burns: You must not be an emacs user! plett: That is correct
mnathani: The first thing I do on a new machine is a git pull of my dotfiles repo mnathani: Is there any benefit from mapping caps lock to be ctrl ? mike-burns: It reduces the urge to shout at people. brycec: lol, some say it's more convenient too
(keeping your finger on the home row rather than reaching down to the bottom row) mike-burns: (I also find it convenient.) plett: I have "/usr/bin/setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp -option ctrl:nocaps" in the xinitrc in my dotfiles repo
So I have two ctrl keys after that brycec: Fun fact: I prefer using ` as my binding for tmux. 1 key vs 2 is a HUGE difference in usability :D
Yep plett: I set that up a few months ago, but I haven't yet trained my brain to use to the "capslock" control key instead of the one on the bottom row mike-burns: I know some vim users who set ctrl = ESC. brycec: B-b-b-but META = ESC. THOSE MONSTERS
Seriously though, think about using ` as your bind key. Sooooooo much better. (And if I have a nested tmux, I just hit `a
) plett: While we're on about dotfiles, I've been meaning to do this rather than manually symlinking the dotfiles I need on each machine
http://brandon.invergo.net/news/2012-05-26-using-gnu-stow-to-manage-your-dotfiles.html brycec: Meh, I don't setup a new machine that often. A few symlinks here and there is just peachy. -: brycec only has about 5 or 6 machines plett: Same here brycec: (on which he cares about keeping his dotfiels)
aight I'm off again.
*whoosh* BryceBot: Bye brycec! plett: I've been considering (ab)using puppet to push my dotfiles out to every linux box at work mike-burns: plett: I use https://github.com/mike-burns/rcm for managing my dotfiles. mnathani: Do you guys ever share screen / tmux sessions when working with other people? mike-burns: http://mike-burns.github.io/rcm/ - the man pages.
mnathani: I sometimes do remote pair programming with screen.
http://bit.ly/164zZAj - this is the guide I follow. plett: mike-burns: Thanks. I'll look at what you do with rcm mike-burns: rcm was my "can we stop reinventing this each time please?" reaction to everyone's install.sh/Makefile/Rakefile in their dotfiles repo. plett: mnathani: Not regularly. Most people I need to share things like that with aren't able to comprehend command prompts, so it's something like logmein or teamviewer
mnathani: In my experience, people who can understand shells and command prompts to the extent where showing them something in a shared tmux/screen would be useful are also capable of following written instructions instead ***: fink has joined #arpnetworks

In case it's a repeat of yesterday) toddf: @google weird ipv6 issues BryceBot: 0 total results returned for '', here's 0 brycec: well for instance that
In this case - my ssh/tmux session totally froze. And new connections would just hang... but IPv4 went through no probelm
*problem staticsafe: can you do a mtR? brycec: (This behaviour is the same as I've seen when trying to push big packets. Small packets are fine, big packets choke.)
ewwww HE's SJC node is dropping it like it's HOT toddf: hot potato! brycec: up_the_irons: seems to be an HE issue
up_the_irons: so... nevermind I guess.

may have bits specific to openbsd, have not tried elsewhere, yada brycec: looks mostly compatible with bash
thanks toddf toddf: (( i++ < stop )) is ?
yeah, I've used this countless times brycec: (Step 1: Install ksh) toddf: you could probably switch it to bash albiet a bit more klunky.. while (( i++ < stop )); do .. probably maps to while [ $i -lt $stop ]; do let i=i+1 ..
or you might even have to do 'let i=$i+1' not sure brycec: bam
1234
1233 good, 1234 and up bad
super script toddf toddf: ;-)
now the question is, which hop is it bad at? ;-) brycec: which just leaves the question - who do I bitch do

heh toddf: you can use it to various routers along the path to determine who's restricting you (I'd start with the 1st, 2nd, etc hop) -: brycec nods brycec: aaaand everything's working now
Guess if it's all working now, I can shut off the alarm bells.
Thanks for walking me through it toddf toddf: ;-)
you're still broken, you just have a very specific definition of what is broken, and its likely not arpnetworks ;-) brycec: Given the 50% loss I was seeing on HE, (and that my transit was 100% HE) I'm pretty sure I know who to blame
*whom
(I swear I grammar good) m0unds: what's funny is that most people would see the sentence and think it was correct until you corrected yourself brycec: lol
I'm guilty of ending sentences with preopositions... but I do it anyways because people look at you funny if you rearrange the sentence appropriately. m0unds: i do it all the time. i don't really care if other people are appalled :)
pedants be damned toddf: language evolution: abuse of the language becomes normalized brycec: For instance, the word "moot"
A total 180 from its original meaning
Boggles the mind to realize that it has taken on the precisely opposite meaning toddf: aint brycec: I use aint. Nothin' wrong with it.
I also use y'all... Way more eloquent than saying "you all" toddf: when I was growing up, teachers would say "aint aint a word" and prove it by not finding it in the dictionary. my wife takes great pleasure in finding it now. brycec: lol I remember teachers saying the same.
"Ye" isn't a word either, yet people use it all the time. (It's a mispronounciation of "the" written with a character we think to be a "y") ***: heavysixer has quit IRC (Quit: heavysixer)

However, its most common modern use is in "ye old inn", used as an article :p mike-burns: Oh sure. It's not really a 'y' but a y-shaped character there, as you said.
A thorn after many evolutions. brycec: Yeah that's it (I couldn't recall its name) mike-burns: Icelandic still has the letter. So far as I know it's the only language that kept it.

because they're really variable but when you look at the values, you laugh
hahahaha
average iowait: 2.6ms
today's avg is 1.08ms
the high value for today is 2.71
good stuff up_the_irons: "$1,000 bonus if cogent agree to drop our contract without further payments" brycec: 2.71ms? or s? up_the_irons: ant: LOL m0unds: ms
16:45 < m0unds> average iowait: 2.6ms
16:45 < m0unds> today's avg is 1.08ms brycec: No units 15:45:19 < m0unds> the high value for today is 2.71 m0unds: oh
ms
haha brycec: And sadly, as you can see from my graph, 2s is feasible (on $competitor) m0unds: yeah
that's been my experience too
either really inconsistent (fast, then excrutiatingly slow) or consistently mediocre for too much money brycec: I'm excited because I have just one final service to migrate and then I can wipe my old VPS m0unds: nice brycec: (Unfortunately it's likely to be the most annoying - VPN server. And I set the server name on most clients to the fqdn of the old host, so I'm going to have to steal its fqdn to move the clients over.)
(which means fun with DNS propagation too)
(wish I'd just used vpnserver.domain.com or some such) m0unds: hahaha

Should be quicker overall avj: anyone using virtio on their openbsd vps?
i was wondering if i should switch to it brycec: I've used it privately
And there is a *significant* boost in throughput avj: interesting ***: HighJinx has joined #arpnetworks brycec: The difference between virtio and basic ide emulation was the difference between a 5 minute openbsd install and a 30 minute install. (A lot of time spent on formatting) staticsafe: virtio <3 lteo: um, how does one switch to it? :) avj: awesome! i don't generate a lot of disk-bound activity, but i figured i'd get it going since i've been sticking to -current snapshots about once a month
i think something needs to be changed in the kvm config for each instance, lteo
based on one thing i just read a few moments, of course lteo: ah brycec: Correct. Just a quick, simple change in the kvm config. Assuming that you're using DUID in fstab, then it will all come back up peachy keen. avj: do you know if it needs to be a coordinated switch, bryce? or is it something i can request be done and handle myself with a hard power down and up
i have zero experience with kvm ***: HighJinx has quit IRC () up_the_irons: your vps has to be on >= kvr27
also
iirc -: up_the_irons heads home from the office avj: well ploppers, i'm on kvr26 brycec: lol well I'm sure up_the_irons will be happy to move you. But it's going to involve some coordinated downtime :p avj: my vps is also criminally underused, so i don't think i need to worry about any performance issues
of course :)
