[00:01] <mnathani> https://twitter.com/arpnetworks/status/535341938296098817 [00:01] <BryceBot> TWITTER: Maintenance window on host kvr03 will begin in about 5 minutes (Thu Nov 20 08:00:38 +0000 2014, retweeted 1 times) [00:02] <mnathani> actually got the SMS alert [00:02] <up_the_irons> hehe [00:02] <mercutio> bryce coded it? [00:02] <mnathani> Is it to upgrade the OS and provide virtio [00:02] <mercutio> oh [00:03] <mercutio> mnathani pasted it [00:46] <mercutio> apache doesn't compress svg by defaul ttoo [00:51] <mercutio> mnathani: maybe that's what he's doing? [01:32] <hazardous> mnathani: i expect good things from a host that defaults to postgres and the latest versions of everything [01:33] <hazardous> also i should point out, not sure if you care, but i had a really old drupal running that i completely forgot was still web accessible and existed [01:33] <hazardous> they automatically vulnpatched it based on a matching md5 or whatever and emailed me to say that it was done because it was critical [01:33] <hazardous> and also sent me the diff/.patch [01:34] <hazardous> and left a copy of the old ver in my /home with the extension .insecure [01:40] <mercutio> now that is cool [01:43] <mnathani> I can't think of any other host that would proactively monitor my old software and update it for me without even asking, so +1 for webfaction.com [01:49] <jlgaddis> wow [01:49] <jlgaddis> i assume you're not paying for any type of managed service so that's really cool they just did it [01:49] <jlgaddis> although, it's in their best interest to do that, tbh [01:50] <mnathani> Its shared hosting - unmanaged [01:50] <mnathani> actually they manage the os and updates, but you can run your own apps I beleive [02:02] <mercutio> how much were you paying? [02:03] <mercutio> and have you learnt not to use drupal? :) [02:23] *** LT has joined #arpnetworks [02:40] <hazardous> one of the nicer things is that [02:40] <hazardous> i can actually trust their autoinstallers [02:41] <hazardous> like if you just want a quick wordpress or cherrypy or django [02:41] <hazardous> they write all of their installer scripts inhouse [02:41] <hazardous> not like cpanel/fantastico [02:41] <hazardous> so you get an up to date version, often pulled stable off a git commit hash or something, installed properly [02:41] <hazardous> fantastico tends to install 15 version old hole-ridden crap and the host just tells you that it's fantastico and they can't edit anything and has to wait for vendor [03:02] *** bashas has joined #arpnetworks [03:29] <mnathani> hazardous: I could not find a list of all the precompiled libraries / tools they provide on thier shared platform [05:49] *** bashas has quit IRC (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client) [05:53] *** bashas has joined #arpnetworks [06:24] *** bashas has quit IRC (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client) [07:11] <hazardous> mnathani: i usually just build my own and add it to my $PATH [07:11] <hazardous> effort [07:39] *** mordac_ has joined #arpnetworks [07:39] *** mordac has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) [07:48] *** mordac_ has quit IRC (Quit: 403 attention redirect) [09:09] <brycec> I was not :P 21:30:41 mercutio | i wonder if bryce is around [09:09] <brycec> (And I am not acf_ either :P) [09:13] <brycec> Nope, still haven't reversed my stance or found time. 00:02:37 mercutio | bryce coded it? [09:13] <brycec> (And I don't recommend holding your breath) [09:22] <brycec> Btw, interesting idea about smokeing generating svg instead of pngs [09:23] <brycec> Not sure it would save much in bandwidth or disk space though... The PNGs are pretty bare already, and only generated on-demand. [09:40] *** LT has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) [11:54] <mercutio> brycec: i just saw the twitter coming up. [11:55] <mercutio> brycec: it doesn't save disk space, and minimal bandwidth, the idea is that it looks better. [11:55] <brycec> I figured - It's very noticeable when skimming the scrollback, as compared to reading every line and seeing the twitter url [12:58] *** neish has joined #arpnetworks [12:58] *** twobit has joined #arpnetworks [12:59] *** toddf has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) [12:59] *** neish_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) [12:59] *** twobithacker has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [12:59] *** twobit is now known as twobithacker [13:00] *** toddf has joined #arpnetworks [13:00] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o toddf [23:07] *** erratic has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 258 seconds)
