brycecI equate the pin-drop with MCI... maybe I'm mis-remembering [10:34]
m0undsit was sprint, their logo was the "trail" of a pin dropping for years

m0undsthat has the old old old logo, but the more triangular one had some superimposed pin bouncing thing that turns into the logo. can't remember when that was [10:52]
brycecLOL I'd forgotten the name "US Sprint" [10:54]
m0undsyeah, hahaha
and that awful typeface
looks like a video game logo from the 80s
err, title
rather

mnathaniwhat is the typical amount of time after placing a call using a voip service like voip.ms that the phone on the other side starts ringing?
other side is a cellphone (non voip)
the voip.ms pop is 10ms away
[18:47]
..... (idle for 20mn)
***jbergstroem has quit IRC (Excess Flood) [19:08]
mkbI've never used voip.me, but through Flowroute it's more or less instant
to call a landline. cell phones usually take a second or two
[19:12]
brycec2-10 seconds
(my experience with cellphones)
(because I don't have a landline to call)
[19:13]
mnathanitakes me around 20 seconds [19:15]
brycec<1 second from voip.ms to voip.ms in the same pop [19:17]
..... (idle for 24mn)
mercutioit's about 2 to 4 seconds normally mnathani
but it can depend on interconnect/switching systems a lot
same as with legacy phone, calling some places can take an insane amount of time, and tends to be worse internationally.
[19:41]
staticsafeaye [19:42]
mercutiobryce: i imagine voip systems are actually quicker than non voip.
in general.
sometimes you hear it changing too
now i have to test it
[19:42]
mnathanithere is an SPA3102 connected to an analog phone which uses a voip.ms account << which is originating the call
not sure if that changes anything
[19:43]
mercutio4 or 5 seconds just now
then 7 or 8 seconds the second time.
wow
that's landline to cell
and going off the ring of cell rather than of phone
3 seconds other way around
but it rung on cell before that
also strangely my cell isn't showing all the callerid information
i wonder if cell being slow is partially because the phone falls asleep

m0undscalling my voip.ms line via at&t mobility, it rings within 2 seconds of starting the call on my cell
and it rings in my office before i hear the ringing tone on the mobile
[20:25]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [20:25]
m0undsHAW HAW BRYCEBOT UR SO GUD [20:25]
mnathaniBryceBot: no [20:25]
BryceBotOh, okay... I'm sorry. 'and it rings in my office before i hear the ringing tone on the mobile' [20:25]
m0undssame w/flowroute and vitelity [20:25]
mnathanithats pstn to voip? [20:26]
m0undsyes [20:26]
mnathanihow about voip to pstn? [20:26]
m0undstoo lazy to get the device and dial out
it's upstairs
i'm 9ms from the pop i use in denver
on voip.ms anyway
17ms to vitelity and similar to flowroute
[20:26]
mercutiom0unds: do you also get longer delay calling cell from voip?
i'd never really paid attention or noticed before
[20:27]
m0undsnot that i've noticed
it terminates quickly
[20:27]
mnathaniwhich voip provider has best call quality? [20:27]
mercutioit was only when i tried :)
mnathani: they're all the same pretty much
ie terrible.
[20:27]
m0undsthe codec used on a mobile is likely going to sound shittier than voup [20:28]
mercutioas long as you use g711 through you're doing the best you can pretty much. [20:28]
m0undsvoip [20:28]
mnathaniI would be willing to pay more for a premium service [20:28]
m0undsfor most networks anyway [20:28]
mercutiom0unds: exactly.
and everyone uses mobile
skype works way better :)
[20:28]
m0undstmo and at&t sound ok, sprint and verizon both sound like ass in nm at least [20:29]
mercutiothey're introducing hd voice here, but not between providers :(
i wonder how hd voice to landline would be
or to voip
[20:29]
m0undsthat's so lame
i guess it's probably a pain to switch it bw providers vs calls on the same provider
maybe in the future
[20:29]
mercutiowell we have 3 mobile providers here and only 2 of them are doing hd voice. [20:29]
brycecFun fact: my watch shows the incoming call notification before my phone actually rings, by several seconds. [20:30]
mercutioyeah i'm hoping. can you do hd voice between providers there? [20:30]
m0undsbrycec: fancy. which watch? [20:30]
brycecPebble [20:30]
m0undsi like the displays on those [20:30]
mercutiois that a smart watch? [20:30]
brycecYes [20:30]
m0undsi'd have a hard time giving up my beat up old g-shock though [20:30]
mercutioi kind of read up a bit about smart watches, and they looked like they may be good in the future [20:30]
brycec(so the call has reached my cell phone, in order to be pushed to my watch, before the phone rings) [20:31]
mercutioand that the samsung one was pretty good but samsung specific.
how do you find having a smart watch in general?
[20:31]
bryceclol "hdvoice landline" there are technical limitations... [20:31]
mercutiobrycec: well voip.. [20:32]
brycec(inherent to electrical telephony and the systems built around it) [20:32]
mercutiobrycec: but ther eisn't really.
the codecs better than gsm.
or whatever codec is being used normally
so even if it's terminating at 8k it'll still be better.
[20:32]
brycecThere isn't a codec in in landline phones until the wiring is terminated, and by then it's fairly meh
(source: I design telephony equipment at my day job)
[20:32]
mercutiobrycec: i'm talknig about the codecs on mobile networks. [20:33]
brycecBut I wasn't :p [20:33]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [20:33]
brycecBryceBot: no [20:33]
BryceBotOh, okay... I'm sorry. 'But I wasn't :p' [20:33]
brycecmercutio: Smartwatch is pretty handy, I like it a lot. [20:33]
mercutioBryceBot: well i was trying to say that hd voice should still help, even if terminating on boring old isdn.
uhh what, why does bryce<tab> terminate to the bot grr.
[20:33]
brycecBlame your client :p [20:34]
mercutiomaybe the bot should be called botbryice. [20:34]
brycecI think that gives the wrong impression [20:34]
m0undsi get brycec before BryceBot
weechat knows (tm)
[20:34]
brycecI get BryceBot, but then... I am brycec [20:35]
m0undsyou shouldn't be speaking to yourself [20:35]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [20:35]
brycecweechat is configurable to tab-complete with whomever spoke recently. [20:35]
mercutiom0unds: i'm using weechat. [20:35]
m0undsyea, i think it does it by default [20:35]
mercutiooh now i get brycec, weird. [20:35]
m0undshaha [20:35]
mercutiooh maybe that's what's happening
how do we make bot talk

JC_Dentonprobably a dumb question, but is it possible to get an 8 GB (RAM) VM? or is that crossing into dedi territory? [22:51]
mnathaniJC_Denton: interesting question
I know dedi at ARP start at 8 GB
any reason why you don't want a dedicated box ?
[23:02]
brycecWhat's more is that a 4GB VPS is $80/mo, an 8GB dedi is $129/mo (plus more disk space, CPU, bw, etc) [23:05]
mnathanialthough dedicated the disk is not RAID / redundant by default
VPS disk is on a RAID 10 array
[23:06]
brycecBut dedi you can get an SSD
JC_Denton: To build the largest VPS up to 8GB will end up costing you $160/mo ($80 base + 16 * 256MB @ $5/mo), or an 8GB ded is $129/mo. You're probably better off with the dedicate box if you really do need 8GB RAM.

JC_Dentonyeah, dedi is my current thought - i was just curious though since i had seen some providers with 8 gb VMs [23:41]
mercutioyaeh some do
usually it's in a hybrid situation for such things
you could probably get it if requesting it
there are certain advantages to vm's.
like if the node has an issue, you don't have to do as much
[23:45]
mnathaniyou could run your own Virtual Instance on top of the dedicated box, giving you more control and ability to snapshot, clone etc [23:46]
mercutiothat's what i'm doing mnathani ;)
i have xen on arp dedicated.
[23:47]
mnathanikvm?
ahh
[23:47]
mercutioi been using xen for years.
i prefer kvm if having no root
and so i can run openbsd for my personal vm
but if you just want to run virtual machines and have basic node access xen is fine.
[23:47]
mnathaniwhat os is the host [23:48]

mnathanior is xen a bare metal hypervisor [23:48]

***meingtsla has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) [23:48]
mercutioxen is bare metal hypervisor
but you still have dom0
that controls file systems etc
i'm using zfs on linux
i used to use opensolaris/xen with zfs.
[23:48]
mnathaniany RAID ? [23:48]
mercutio3 hard-disks
i think
yeah 3x1tb.
raid 10 at start of disk
then zfs
in raidz
i'm hardly using any disk space it seems atm.
[23:48]
mnathaniis OpenSolaris still maintained / any good? [23:49]
mercutioyou raise your iops with 3 disks.
mnathani: no
mnathani: that's why i'm using linux now.
but before oracle i used opensolaris for a while
[23:49]
mnathaniyou folllowing the systemd vs init discussion? [23:50]
mercutioyes
i use arch linux at home
i hate sytemctl but kind of like it
[23:50]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [23:50]
mercutioit's kind of like saying you like windows. [23:50]

systemctl is pretty cool, but it can be damn annnoying.
i still get confused by it
[23:50]
***hazardous has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [23:51]
mercutioi always liked /etc/rc.local myself
and /etc/rc.conf
there's something blaringly obvious about having everything that's happening in a small space.
it's kind of like that feeling when you can look at a perl script and it's only one page
vs one that's 20 pages.
