brycec: Hooray for #arpnetworks, answering the question of whether it was "just me" this morning with an Internet glitch.
Well that and Smokeping
m0unds: ipv4? didn't notice anything w/v6
grody: it was 6 that shot fo me
m0unds: hm
brycec: I saw it on 4
Don't know about 6
m0unds: i can't toggle weechat but i didn't see that i disconnected from any network i'm connected to via ipv6, but did disconnect from ipv4 networks
brycec: Hm yep I saw it on v6 as well. Seems like it may have been route-specific though.
Because not all v4 hosts were affected, and not all v6 hosts were affected, according to my Smokeping
m0unds: interesting
i lost connectivity to east AZ but not west
AWS*
oh well. gotta get ready to go to the VLA.
grody: http://imgur.com/wYHPTmf,lmpJEk4 - first is IPv6, second IPv4
m0unds: whoops, realized i sent a msg to the wrong channel - second or third blip in the last few days
ah, okay
grody: welcome to my world of dodgy laptop mousepad that seems to be hypersensitive and sends focus all over the shop
m0unds: hahahaha, i was fixing my modifier keys w/osx terminal.app because i was having toggling issues
grody: i was writing my letter of resignation into my note taker earlier
m0unds: haha
brycec: Another "yay not just me". Yeah I saw a blip yesterday morning too, but didn't bother to care about it.
grody: hmm.. dinner or pet? https://goo.gl/photos/tYiMxRcEXRFd1cZs6

m0unds: hahaha, looks like it's wearing a wig
grody: it's about 25 days old
the nest got blocked from it's parents as they put netting up - so i had to rescue it
not the parents, $boss3 place of work
mercutio: so skylake is coming out
and finally intel have gone from pci-e 2 to pci-3 for their normal dmi connection
kellytk: Can anyone recommend a high quality high performance mini PC for use as a desktop test server? Similar to NUC but perhaps better
mercutio: nuc?
oh similar to nuc but better
you could build yourself a normal mini itx box
or you could get a hp sff box or such
kellytk: I'm considering the white box route. I've done it in the past and do enjoy it
mercutio: i like fractal design cases
depends how much you want to spend though
cheap ex-lease hp sff are easy
and as long as you have a ssd eveerything is pretty much on par these days
like for desktop use i doubt most people would notice an i3 vs i7 if they have good screens, were hidden away, and had ssd's
to my mind the monitor should be the most expensive part of a computer
(should have good keyboard and mice too, but they're a bit cheaper)
kellytk: What would you recommend for a 4k ~25" display?
mercutio: i wouldn't.
28" 4k isn't much better than 27" 1440p
better to go for a decent 1440p for most people.
2560x1600 is a nicer resolution, but the panels tend to be older tech.
i like the samsung pls panels, but different people have different opinions.
kellytk: I have 2560x1440 on this 27"
mercutio: well yeh you're not doing too bad then i imagine
two 1440p screens are better than one 4k i reckon
that would be the next logical upgrade
