mercutio: (usually you'll hit a peered connection when browsing hosted sites)
yeah but i see ntt :)
maybe ntt do flowspec now
acf_: so GTT was integral to the CloudFlare implementation at one point
BryceBot: TO THE CLOUD!!!
acf_: that's interesting
mercutio: https://njetwork.wordpress.com/2013/04/30/mitigating-ddos-attacks-with-bgp-flow-specification/
The specification was written by guys from Cisco, Juniper, Arbor Networks and NTT America, but only Juniper implements it at the time of writing.
so yeah maybe ntt are implementing it now
but yeah now they're not, and they're hosting on cloudflare, and they can't handle ddos??
that anti ddos protection crap at the beginning is like soimething to enable when you're under active ddos attack to try and reduce traffic
acf_: that seems like it would be expensive to implement on all of your network's routers
if you're NTT and you have a bunch of customers
and you have to deal with all of their firewall rules
like rate limiting individual traffic streams?
seems like that has to be stateful, for each stream
> then rate-limit 1m;
mercutio: i have never looked into it tbh
:666 blackhole stops most ddos attacks.
err blackhole community, it is noramlly called 666 as that's the community number standard :)

grody: my isp has an extremely effective ddos detection
as soon as they see traffic being sent down your line faster than it is connected, they simply sever you (they also have means to filter certain types of dos too)
realisticly end users can only hope for that, at least if i get shunted offline i can log into their panels and see why im offline
after much playing (and subtle hair loss) - i have found my solution - debian & xen
hyper-v is nice n all, quite fast for freebsd guests - but no way of vga passthru on my system by looks
just need to get a way for debian to give me an option to go full X and only run the background guests (that need no head), or to choose windows passthru & background guests and leave the host idle for ssh
acf_: the Level3 trunk is acting strange
mercutio: grody: have you tired that alternative to vnc
uhh spice
grody: have been reading about that
mercutio: it's a lot nicer
grody: have been using the sdl interface vs vnc
mercutio: ahh ok i haven't palyed with that
grody: it's faster in general, but if you lose that window, you kill the vm
mercutio: spice is fast over lan
i can't remember what it's like over internet
grody: ahh i'll be running everything locally
mercutio: well it's still worth a shot
by fast i mean web browsing on windows was good from linux :)
like scrollign was good even
for some reason most remote video still scrolls terribly
RandalSchwartz: I did it! I hacked my first fbsd ports Makefile!
p5-Business-ISBM required a newer ExtUtils::Makemaker, so I added that to my BUILD_DEPENDS
-: RandalSchwartz does a happydance
RandalSchwartz: now to submit that patch back upstream
mercutio: i had heaps of problems with freebsd ports back when i used freebsd as a desktop :/
it seemed that any given time lots of things were out of sync
there was no stable branch?
i haven't had any issues recently with much less ports used though
but they always seem to change dependencys around for versions
mind you that was mostly with things like gnome etc
RandalSchwartz: stable what?
mercutio: like when doing cvs upgrade on the ports tree
RandalSchwartz: well - it claims it needs perl 5.18, which probably has the required module in core
mercutio: you don't have release tagged versions, it just constantly updates.
RandalSchwartz: EUMM is one of those "dual-tagged" modules
both a core version, and a version in CPAN
I'm still running 5.16, so I had to "upgrade" my EUMM
but poudriere always starts with a clean slate
this is the first time that has been a problem. :)
I built EUMM 7.04, and that's what's installed on my host machine
but poudriere used the 5.16 perl stock EUMM, and p5-Business-ISBN hated that
mercutio: hmm
i think i have perl 5.20
well on linux
i've got no idea what perl has been changing in their new versions
RandalSchwartz: perldoc perldelta :)
mercutio: ahh i have 5.20.2
lots of little things?
Errno has been upgraded from version 1.20_03 to 1.20_05.
that means nothing to me for instance
RandalSchwartz: it means nothing to me either. :)
it probably means they fixed some bugs.
the perldelta has a lot of insignificant noise.
mercutio: it seems to be mostly language and unicode improvements
err and fixes
RandalSchwartz: what does a freebsd ABI look like?
as in, in pkg.conf, ${ABI}
ahh... like this: freebsd:8:x86:64
I should name my poudriere jails like that too then
hmm. that doesn't look like anything in uname -a
I wonder how you get the ABI
I could look at the source of pkg, I guess... since it parses pkg.conf with that var
Oh... geez. pkg gets it literally by reading the elf info from /bin/sh
pkg query '%o %q' can show you the same ABI string too
mercutio: that souunds dirty
BryceBot: That's what she said!!
mercutio: but maybe it's so you can have different kernels and userspace

RandalSchwartz: there we go
the "other" auckland :)
mercutio: the other?
RandalSchwartz: yes... there's a story of a person getting on a flight at SFO, heading for what he though was "oakland". Turns out, it was a flight to auckland.
... http://articles.latimes.com/1985-04-11/local/me-11793_1_auckland
JC_Denton: lol
***: Hien has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
JC_Denton: long flight difference
RandalSchwartz: yeah - I think he was wondering why he wasn't down in an hour or so
JC_Denton: and why would you fly from SFO to OAK?
that has to be like the dumbest flight ever
RandalSchwartz: speaking of oakland, I had to pick up my girlfriend once at OAK and her flight was "alaska 404". I was wondering if I would see "flight not found"
JC_Denton: i actually discovered OAK recently and quite like it
mercutio: randal: don't they separate international and domestic terminals there?
RandalSchwartz: apparently this was 1985
probably more ways to make mistakes :)
US doesn't have any exit customs
so it could have been all from same terminal
mercutio: jc: don't people regularly fly between los angeles and san francisco?
i don't know where oakland is though
oh it's one bridge away
RandalSchwartz: Oh... might have been originated in Sac
mercutio: 23 minutes by car apparently
where's santa clara hmm
RandalSchwartz: more details - http://articles.latimes.com/1985-04-03/local/me-28522_1_europe-vacation
mercutio: oh santa clara is a bit further away
-: grody somehow ended up installing windows 10 TP to play with
RandalSchwartz: Ahhh yeah, from LAX
either to auckland or oakland
mercutio: grody: i have windows 10. what do you think?
RandalSchwartz: and he was still in internatil
grody: not bah
bad*
it's pretty damned fast on this thing too
mercutio: grody: windows 10 feels faster than windows 2008 did to me
but it's got a few annoying bugs.
like it keeps wanting me to do an update, but there's no update, and i have to click postpone.
grody: not had that
mercutio: but like if playing a game or something, it'll pop up taking over :/
i didn't used to have it, it started at some point
also it boots into this thing saying whether you want to roll back every boot
this was "upgraded" to build 9926
grody: just finished playing with miracast
mercutio: i dunno if that makes any diff
also they keep updating the amd video drivers recently, and the most recent ones seem buggy
grody: swmbo was watching TV, then i just took it over with IE on youtube
mercutio: and i have to unplug/replug my monitor to a different slot sometimes
or the secreen is all garbled.
grody: ah i installed the ones off AMD site
mercutio: so yeah a few annoying issues, but nothing corrupting data or anything
grody: didnt find 2D was all that
mercutio: really?
grody: plus a few windows 8 drivers for a few other specifics which has gotten everything working
mercutio: i'm pretty sure they're including the real amd drivers now.
grody: i think so, but was no opencl :>
mercutio: oh
***: djkrikke-2 has joined #arpnetworks
mercutio: i don't know what programs use opencl
i found some opencl test which didn't work on linux
but it all seemed rather complicated.
grody: it also allows swapping to video ram in some scenarios
boinc uses it too
mercutio: i don't know that program
i was kind of hoping more things would be accelerated by now
my amd cpu is so much slower than g3258
grody: aye, i have seen some databases being offloaded
mercutio: oh?
grody: but would have hoped to shunt a virtual machine or most of it's load off on it
mercutio: i think amd's lack of memory bandwidth and high latency kind of hurt
like the g3258 has way faster memory speed
for the same clock rate
grody: http://highscalability.com/scaling-postgresql-using-cuda
there are some apps in debian & mint that are poc of similar
mercutio: oh curious.
i got that library thingy for doing stuff going
for amd's hybrid mode or whtaever thing they call it
hsa?
the demo thing ran
but i couldn't find anything useful to run with it
grody: hm
grub will boot linux in secondary partitions, right?
mercutio: i think so, i use uefi
grody: fbsd in primary (with secondaries in container), windows in another primary, debiab in another with LVM then a few small to tinker with in secondaries off the last space for primary
this bios/efi is weird.. it's a bios, but supports secure boot and a uefi console, but noting fancy
freebsd's uefi boot barfs the screen like esxi does
so far only archlinux seems to utilize the uefi boot (as does windows) properly
see how long it is until i break this...
***: ix33 has joined #arpnetworks
brycec: (grub can boot linux on any mbr or gpt partition, provided the bios can boot to grub at least -- grub installed to the mbr, or first partition typically)
I thought Fedora and CentOS had mature/proper UEFI usage.
***: ix33 has quit IRC (Quit: Changing server)
mercutio: don't they all use grub2?
***: ix33 has joined #arpnetworks
brycec: Arch offers grub2, but since Arch is very much a "build it however you like" distro, I wouldn't say it necessarily uses any one thing.
(for instance, Arch provides directions on booting a kernel EFI stub directly, or using any other bootloader)
mercutio: yeah, i've been meaning to try efi stubs directly
or at least consider something other than grub
