♥ Sony
i was waiting for them to say "it's not covered and will cost £50"

maybe the techs doing the work like when people do such things
rather than just drop their phone in a toilet

grody: haha
dont see follow through care like that much here.. i am seriously impressed
if i dropped it down the bog, i'd just use my insurance to get an outright swap :P
mercutio: really?
you'd have to pay a huge premium
i'd just try the rice trick
assuming it was pre ... stuff..
i don't quite understand how people manage to do such things
but apparently it's kind of common

brycec: well THAT was really, really annoying. My dedicate machine's BMC refused to attach any ISO, either from ARP's library or from the iKVM Java viewer.
-: brycec rages against the BMC
mnathani_: email support@ ?
brycec: Yeah I might do that later. Currently recovering from the "oh god everything is on fire and we can't boot to recovery" panic
***: mnathani_ has quit IRC ()
mercutio: do pxe boot?
did you recover ok bryce?
brycec: PXE boot from what? AFAIK there is no DHCP, let alone PXE boot on the dedi network or my VLAN :p
And I'm back online, yeah. No idea how/why, but grub-efi refused to see my ZFS boot volume whereas grub-mbr booted it fine.
(debugging for a time that I can afford extended downtime)
mercutio: you can pxe to anything else on your vlan
you can setup dnsmasq to do it quite easily as long as you firewall off the stuff from external
i'd be surprised if the dedicated servers can't pxe boot
yeh i know when you get up it can be good to debug later :)
i think ipmi power cycle doesn't reboot the virtual media thing.
brycec: That requires me to interrupt my sole production VPS,and I wasn't that fargone yet.
mercutio: it doesn't really have to be interrupted.
just dual purposed :)
brycec: I'd have to touch the pf rules, and there's a chance I bork its networking. Neither were acceptable risks.
mercutio: ok :)
well you got up anyway.
brycec: (And if I didn't have that VPS, I'd be screwed too :P)
mercutio: yeh it does sound pretty ick
brycec: (But, there's a reason I kept a single VPS rather than relying completely on my dedicated box)
mercutio: dhcp-boot=pxelinux.0; enable-tftp; tftp-root=/var/lib/tftpboot
those on blank lines without semi-colon is basically what you need to do pxe boot with dnsmasq at a minimum. there's some option thing that some stuff needs to to say pxe i think
and you need to set a dhcp range.
you then need to stick pxelinux.0 and some other stuff in /var/lib/tftpboot
brycec: Thanks mercutio, I don't need any help.
mercutio: yeh it's more if want to look into pxe later :)
it's good you came up anyway (:
brycec: Oh, I _know_ PXE very well ;) My last two jobs involved a fairly extensive setup for provisioning new systems, network installs, etc.
mercutio: oh ok :)
sorry.
i didn't realise.
brycec: Thanks though, appreciate your helpfulness.
mercutio: i think people overestimate how hard it is to get a simple network boot working.
and underestimate complicated setups :)
brycec: heh, it's pretty easy, that's true. Most of the work is organizing/arranging the boot files.
mercutio: yeah, when you want different hosts to have different startups and to start tracking mac addresess and using alternate vlan's etc it gets more complex.
brycec: (if you're just booting a single file, it's easy as pie. When you need menus, or mac/ip/uuid-specific boots, or you start mixing pxe implementations... then you have fun)
mercutio: exactly
i wish the ip/kvm type stuff would have open source implementation
they all seem a little iffy
milki: sounds like a business opportunity!
maybe
mercutio: i don't think thereis much of a business opportunity unfortunately :(
there might have been 10 years ago
but now things are pretty entrenched afaik
but then, it's hard to know. i never would have called youtube a business opportunity :)
m0unds: i see more of the IBM branded IP KVMs than any other
at least here in NM
mercutio: i see a lot of HP
m0unds: there's a personal weather station near me that's gone off the rails
i think it's in direct sunlight or something, says the temperature is 15F higher than anything else nearby
mercutio: heh
i'm finding it rather chilly here again
but apparently where i used to live reached a new record low
milki: lol
m0unds: does BryceBot fetch PWS IDs or just airports?
@weather KNMALBUQ201
BryceBot: Error, No cities match your search query
m0unds: guess that answers that
mercutio: i think there's a way to get pws
m0unds: @weather
BryceBot: m0unds: Fetching weather for your previous query (KNMALBUQ201).
Error, No cities match your search query
m0unds: @weather kabq

m0unds: the lying PWS says it's 115F
brycec: m0unds: it does, there's a format to it.
m0unds: ah
brycec: something like pws:
m0unds: @weather pws:KNMALBUQ201
BryceBot: Albuquerque, NM: Clear 113°F (45°C), Humidity: 9%, Wind: From the North at 3.2 MPH -- For more details including the forecast and almanac, see http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=35.197624,-106.714790 or re-request this with: @weather -v pws:KNMALBUQ201
m0unds: there we go
brycec: (And I'll point out that the format isn't my doing. It's just how wunderground takes it.)
m0unds: right
mercutio: nice,
m0unds: just wasn't sure you'd integrated that part of the API
***: jbergstroem has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
brycec: m0unds: heh it's nothing extra. It all goes in the same query field and it's up to wunderground to process it (hence the format)
mercutio: i seem to remember some discussion about it a while ago
m0unds: yeah, just meant @pws vs @weather vs @weather w/params
mercutio: we seem to talk about the weather a lot in here :)
***: phlux has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)

m0unds: i like weather
brycec: Hm @pws is an interesting Idea, I could make that a shortcut.
m0unds: i don't like that it's felt a bit like springtime in phoenix, az this week
brycec: See 'query' on http://www.wunderground.com/weather/api/d/docs?d=data/index
RandalSchwartz: it's pretty warm in Santa MOnica
no more june gloom
mercutio: why is june gloom there?
m0unds: brycec: gotcha, i've used it before w/a shitty eggdrop module
mercutio: july is always damn cold here, and it's only june :(
brycec: (Just keep in mind that it gets url-encoded, so you can't do the /-separated queries)
m0unds: ah
it's foggy/overcast along the CA coast in june
mercutio: ahh so it looks like for northern hemisphere january should be coldest month?
m0unds: yes, typically
mercutio: because shortest day is december, and shortest day in southern hemisphere is june
m0unds: we're getting into summer in the northern hemisphere now
mercutio: i find it weird how it's after the shortest day that the coldest temperatures happen
brycec: Yep. (which all seems second-nature to a Northerner. Of course winter is cold, etc)
mercutio: yeah that's why i thought it odd that june would be gloom :)
m0unds: we typically have strong thunderstorms nearly every afternoon from june -> august (monsoon season)
mercutio: ahh
i love thunderstorms
brycec: (keep in mind 'we" is highly localized, since the country is massive)
m0unds: yes
mercutio: yeah

mercutio: like los angeles never gets very cold?
m0unds: eastern az, most of nm
cold is relative to the people who live there
friends of mine in southern florida freak out when temps drop below 65F during the day
mercutio: true, i moved to a place that's warmer in winter than where i'm from, and i seem to notice the winter more.
65f is kind of cold though
inside..
75f is about what temperature you want inside?
-: brycec looks over at his AC unit, set to 72F
RandalSchwartz: my inside temperature is 98.6 :)
brycec: 22c
m0unds: 75 is alright, i set my thermostat to 78-80 because it's upstairs
***: phlux has joined #arpnetworks
mercutio: my inside temperature is around 65f
m0unds: downstairs temp usually settles right around 72-73 w/the upstairs at 78
mercutio: aactually it's probably more like 66 or 67f
brycec: m0unds++ that's exactly how I lived in AZ.
m0unds: right now, it's warmer because of energy conservation periods
(AC compressor is remotely disabled for a few hours)
reduces load on the grid during peak demand times - good in some ways (they send me a check) bad in others (it's hot)
Start Time: 2015-06-22 14:00:00 Mountain Daylight Time End Time: 2015-06-22 18:00:00 Mountain Daylight Time
brycec: i really wish dual zone hvac was more common in houses
mercutio: 78 sounds ok?
brycec: I wish central AC was more common here :P (because PNW, nobody really cares)
m0unds: oh, right, hahaha
mercutio: central ac isn't common here either
m0unds: my buddy in WA has a heat pump and he haaaaaaates it when it gets cold
mercutio: i don't mind cold as long as i'm doing stuff
err physical stuff
m0unds: he's down in vancouver, wa area
mercutio: but it's quite annoying if standing around outside, or sitting at the computer inside :)
m0unds: my least favorite cold weather activity at my old job was working on aerial lifts in the winter
mercutio: lots of wind?
m0unds: yeah, and cold
gizmoguy_: it's 65F in my office right now
silly winter
brycec: I'm planning to move to the Vancouver, WA area next year :)
m0unds: don't have good enough dexterity to wear gloves
mercutio: gizmoguy_: did you see about canterbuy reaching -20c?
m0unds: cool, he really likes it a lot - he's outside washougal in some unincorporated area of clark county
mercutio: mt cook ... so not really where anyone lives :/
m0unds: works in PDX
brycec: m0unds: Interesting. outside to the North or East, do you know?
And more importantly, what's his Internet connection? :p
mercutio: hahaha
m0unds: east of vancouver and washougal
and...lol
brycec: Priorities, man!
m0unds: he has some godawful verizon wireless POS
loop length is way too long for DSL, no comcast presence (he has no neighbors)
he's in the columbia river gorge area
brycec: Ew, I was afraid of that. (and I wfh, need good Internets)
RandalSchwartz: brycec - we'll nearly be neightbors
brycec: Yeah I know the area
Was there just last weekend in fact
m0unds: well, if he was a couple miles in either direction, nw or east, he'd have comcast or centurylink as options
RandalSchwartz: of course, that's only when I'm home
brycec: lol RandalSchwartz
m0unds: err, frontier
not cl
mercutio: m0unds: run a wireless link :)
gizmoguy_: mercutio: yeap looks pretty cold down south!
m0unds: he's in a gorge
so that's a no-go
in fact, the company he works for now just spun down their WISP stuff
and they're focusing on MSP stuff now
mercutio: gizmoguy_: it feels like christchurch weather when i go outside here :)
m0unds: damn.
m0unds: he had originally put a wimax antenna on a mast and was getting awful clearwire svc, but sprint just killed wimax
mercutio: wimax never really took off much did it?
m0unds: not really, no
brycec: Got obliterated by LTE's success.
m0unds: yeah
didn't help they ran it in 2.5GHz range
mercutio: i thought it just never really took off :/
m0unds: so building penetration was hideous
mercutio: there's no wimax at all here
but you can get wireless mini pci-e cards with wimax support easily..
m0unds: clearwire had decent presence up in that area, but it was way oversubscribed (think..avg rate was ~300kbit/sec)
mercutio: what's happening with 60 ghz?
brycec: Food's cooking ;P
mercutio: because it seems like 60 ghz short range gives great bandwidth and then you can bounce it to 2.4/5 inside the house
oh apparently 60 ghz isn't shifting to devices now..
m0unds: wasn't there some wireless hdmi thing using 60ghz?
mercutio: i reckon using multiple channels is a nice idea :)
m0unds: http://www.amazon.com/DVDO-AIR3-1-60GHz-WirelessHD-Adapter/dp/B00F5LEMBC
BryceBot: Amazon: "DVDO AIR3-1 60GHz WirelessHD Adapter for HDMI Cable"
mercutio: on completely different frequencies
cool
m0unds: 60ghz sounded right, but i wasn't sure
mercutio: yeah
http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2015/06/500mbps-broadband-for-55-a-month-offered-by-wireless-isp/
i was reading that
BryceBot: Ars Technica: "500Mbps broadband for $55 a month offered by wireless ISP"
mercutio: and that mentioned 60 ghz too which reminded me :)
gizmoguy_: 60ghz is WiGig (802.11ad)
mercutio: why gig hah
brycec: (I thought I remembered a wireless HDMI at 12GHz or thereabouts too)
m0unds: wigig, haha
gizmoguy_: short distance, high bandwidth, very directional
m0unds: just...rolls off the tongue
mercutio: i think it can do like 2km?
but yeah directional.
i think the ultra short distance is for small transmitter/receivers like on phones
m0unds: was excited that the NM brewers guild IPA challenge was going on soon. then found out they changed the venue to my old employer's convention center space, and i'm banned from going there til september
mercutio: because you might be stealing their ideas?
brycec: Wow, banned? Sounds extreme.
m0unds: they're paranoid i might orchestrate some sort of criminal activity because i knew about surveillance stuff
mercutio: what
m0unds: it's a procedure for anyone in surveillance - they usually only institute a 90 day period, but they gave me a year
mercutio: i thought it was like you might compete with them
m0unds: nah
mercutio: can you get a pass to go to a conference?
m0unds: nope
mercutio: lame
m0unds: and it's criminal trespass if i got caught during the ban period
booooooo
brycec: What if you were parachuting...
mercutio: maybe they can withdraw it?
m0unds: lol
brycec: i'm gonna have to find out now
mercutio: if you ask nicely and show about this microbrew thing.
brycec: Pffft that's exactly when he would strike and carry out his evil plan.
m0unds: i'd have to beg tribal leadership to do it, and they're spiteful dicks and would say no just because
mercutio: well they probably knew he was into microbrewing anyway
m0unds: spiteful dicks is putting it nicely
hahaha
nah, i didn't have a relationship with coworkers outside of work
because i didn't like anyone i worked with
