up_the_irons: woo, chill week
(if someone orders 15 servers, i will kick them)
staticsafe: heh
brycec: But you'll still go ahead with the order, right? :P
up_the_irons: haha
no comment
mercutio: do you have 15 servers spare? :)
i imagine it's pretty hard to get more stuff now
brycec: I figured up_the_irons meant VPS in which case, I'm sure there's room for at least 1 on most host machines.
mercutio: oh server makes me think dedicated :)
i think vps for vps :)
brycec: Me too, if this weren't #arpnetworks ...
mercutio: i think dedicated server sales have been going up
brycec: I'm still waiting for up_the_irons to match AWS pricing, $7300/mo :D
mercutio: well you still have to pay the hosting prices on top of that i think
mm 15 dedicated would be much more annoying than 15 vps's too
this is the time of year i like to get vps's generally :)
my arp vps was jan 2011
oh wow that's over 3 years ago now
brycec: (My bad, the cheapest "dedicated" EC2 instance is only $1474/mo.)
mercutio: may as well just buy dual cpu e5 with lots of ram
and do your own setup
is what comes to my mind :)
RandalSchwartz: I think I've been here since nov 21 2009, based on the date of /media
mercutio: nice
i was checking out arp's old web pages.
i much prefer the current layout :)
which is like it's been since mid 2011 it seems
up_the_irons: brycec: LOL
mercutio: wait until you see the new website. should launch in Jan
brycec: I'll gladly match AWS pricing, just submit an order and I'll do special pricing ;)
i did in fact mean 15 VMs
actually i wouldn't mind doing 15 dedi's
cuz the revenue is much higher (= exciting)
brycec: "I like money."
up_the_irons: hahahahah
well played
brycec: (one of my most often-used Idiocracy quotes)
mercutio: hmm i thought it said the irc channel on the front page
oh it does if you click vps
which nearly looks the same
brycec: And ONLY that page, interesting
mercutio: heh
up_the_irons: i don't think that has got us many visitors in here though
mercutio: i dunno where i found out about it
brycec: from a friend, in my case
mercutio: i think i came and went and came back again when there was some network issue and then stuck around.
mkb: I came in here after seeing it and commented that I liked to see the pound sign used for something other than a hashtag.
m0unds: i like lattes
mercutio: it shows as a pound?
it shows as a hash for me
mhoran: up_the_irons: Any thoughts on that IPv6 throughput issue I reported? Still seeing that -- SCP showing ~20 min to download 100.bin vs < 1 minute over IPv4.
m0unds: i blame staticsafe for me being here
staticsafe: o_o
mkb: mercutio, those are called pound signs too
m0unds: staticsafe: you told me about arp + irc ch
mercutio: mkb: oh i didn't realise that, i knew that uk keyboards used a pound key on shift-3, and quote on shift-2
when i've tried using uk layout, i'm always left wondering where @ is :)
maybe it's near where " is
mkb: heh. no I'm in US. but apparently pound sign is a US thing and the pound sterling sign has been in the same spot as # in some encodings
mercutio: for some weird reason i've been stuck in a wrong layout in the past
so can't just look at keyboard.
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/it-services/learning/documentation/keyboard-1/keyboard-r1-6.gif
this just olooks weird :)
the weirdest bit is actually
mkb: oh yeah. wrong sized enter key
mercutio: i use dvorak often, i'm used to weird layouts :)
mkb: I've used Sun keyboards with ESC where ` is, BS where is, and and ` where BS is on the usual US qwerty layout
mercutio: i've used XT layout, that has a low escape key too
http://www.pcguide.com/ref/kb/layout/z_011261xt.jpg
oh interesting is somewhere weird too
mkb: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/806-6642/images/BR.unix.tif.gif
mercutio: my xt layout memory is slightly different
i actually like the idea of having extra function keys on the left. haven't seen any good keyboards with them though
i want single keypress virtual desktop swapping, but need more keys for it.
hmm, i suppose i could get an extra numeric keypad.
mkb: we've got some mainframe keyboard at work with 36 F keys
mercutio: actually i should just remap numeric keypa.d
mkb: model m style too
mercutio: oh i've seen keyboards like that.
i've also seen ones with cut/copy/paste etc somewhere else
like more where ins/home/etc is
mkb: cut/copy/paste actually work ootb in X.
the rest must require CDE
mercutio: http://www.lemis.com/grog/Photos/20120509/big/Keyboard-3.jpeg
this looks fine
err
it is uk layout
mkb: yeah
mercutio: i love having volume single key press
i have mute down/up on this keyboard, and a calculator button
calculator button is useless, i suppose i could remap it
mkb: model m here, so nothing like that
mercutio: i'm using ducky zero
http://www.duckychannel.com.tw/en/ZERO_DK2108.html
cherry mx red
probably why i typo so much, so light :)
i haven't used model m in ages.
mus1cb0x: tracerouting around... i came across "ae-3.r03.londen05.uk.bb.gin.ntt.net" can anyone spot the typo? :P
acf_: that's a CLLI
London, England
mus1cb0x: CLLI?
acf_: lsanca == Los Angeles, California
Common Language Location Identifier
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLLI_code
BryceBot: CLLI code :: CLLI code (sometimes referred to as COMMON LANGUAGE Location Identifier Code and often pronounced as silly) is a Common Language Information Services identifier used within the North American telecommunications industry to specify the location and function of telecommunications equipment or of a relevant location such as an international border or a supporting equipment location, like a manhole or pole. Originally, they...
mus1cb0x: did londen mean london, england, then?
that's the only thing i can think of
acf_: yea. the first four characters are for the city, the second two are for the province/state
mus1cb0x: ahh
thanks guys
mercutio: clli *is* silly
the airport codes seems to make the most sense to me
and if wanting to be more specific may as well just use full city name
i wonder what facebook uses
like "frc"
which is some city
some city near virginia iirc, so not freemont city or something
frc is forrest city
-: mus1cb0x prefers airport codes too
acf_: "but some cities don't have airports!"
mus1cb0x: i guess clli gives more info
mercutio: they're not usually internet hubs either :)
mus1cb0x: yea that's true, but i go with "nearest city"
er, nearest airport
acf_: clli is good for telecoms like Verizon who have presences they need to identify everywhere
mus1cb0x: good point
mercutio: true
