| grody | grody needs a new job
again mercutio, sorry - got caught up with stuff and cant scroll back enough.. last i see is you're still being curious about the dedi question i think he found something in the end | [17:37] |
| mercutio | cool
i didn't realise just how many bad options there were :) | [17:38] |
| grody | he moved out to Aus and wanted something reliable | [17:40] |
| mercutio | ahh | [17:40] |
| grody | why do some employers assume because you can master their billing/order system, you must be a guru | [17:41] |
| mercutio | australia has better data centre selection than new zealand | [17:41] |
| grody | aye, i think cost was an issue too :P | [17:41] |
| mercutio | that brings down cost.
colo prices are high here even before bandwidth etc. hardware is a bit expensive too but it's the colo prices that make everything kind of insane | [17:42] |
| grody | oh wait, Auckland
not Aus | [17:43] |
| mercutio | yeah i'm in auckland not australia
did you think i was in australia | [17:43] |
| grody | nah i knew you were NZ
why i asked | [17:43] |
| mercutio | yeah
rendrag may do dedicated in australia if the guy is still looking | [17:43] |
| grody | think he found something eventually
appears to be routing via vocus i suspect thats Aus though | [17:46] |
| mercutio | vocus eww :/
is it via japan for you? | [17:49] |
| *** | nesta has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
nesta has joined #arpnetworks | [17:50] |
| mercutio | serversaustralia do vocus i think | [17:50] |
| *** | rendrag has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | [17:50] |
| grody | NYC, ASH, LAX, lax.ca, sydney | [17:51] |
| mercutio | heh tracing to rendrag's domain routes via vocus | [17:51] |
| grody | yea, it terminates in Aus
hah | [17:51] |
| *** | neish has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) | [17:51] |
| mercutio | it's like 320 msec via US both directions, and 360+ routing via asia | [17:51] |
| grody | lax.ca & sjc.ca
305 for me | [17:52] |
| mercutio | yeh the other direction may go via asia if it's high ping | [17:52] |
| *** | jbergstroem has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | [17:52] |
| mercutio | yeah that's probably US direct.
and the cheaper cables. | [17:52] |
| *** | plett has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | [17:52] |
| mercutio | somehow i'm getting 255 msec ping to uk now | [17:52] |
| grody | i bet it's not that bad from ARP..
was doing it from UK | [17:52] |
| mercutio | yeah cut 160 off it probably
maybe 140 | [17:53] |
| *** | KDE_Perry has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
plett has joined #arpnetworks | [17:53] |
| grody | crap.. jail isn't allowing raw sockets, or bloody --udp
what the hell! | [17:54] |
| mercutio | heh
security? udp is curious though | [17:54] |
| grody | default setting | [17:54] |
| mercutio | ping is kind of insecure | [17:54] |
| grody | aye, wont allow creating non TCP/UDP (even icmp as 'root'
i can change it, thought i had yea, ICMP is kinda funny for trojans etc. | [17:55] |
| *** | jbergstroem has joined #arpnetworks | [17:56] |
| grody | always makes me paranoid, especially since i generally allow inbound pings | [17:56] |
| mercutio | well it's more that every process has to listen for icmp at once
so you get everyone elses responses and decide which ones you want | [17:56] |

neish has joined #arpnetworks | [17:57] |
| mercutio | hmm serversaustralia isn't cheap either | [18:03] |
| ..... (idle for 22mn) | ||
| gizmoguy | under my desk is free if you want to colo stuff near AU
got pretty good Vocus peering | [18:25] |
| brycec | Wow, so generous! | [18:25] |
| gizmoguy | yeah and I only cost a beer a week! | [18:26] |
| brycec | I thought you said "free" ;P | [18:27] |
| ...... (idle for 28mn) | ||
| mercutio | heh
an ipa beer a week? so how big is your desk gizmo :) | [18:55] |
| gizmoguy | it's quite large
well so large I have 2 desks in my office | [18:56] |
| mercutio | heh
http://bulletin.brynmawr.edu/files/2011/05/682px-VAX-11-750.jpg send him something like taht :/ i can't find anything large on trademe :/ did find this cheap though http://www.trademe.co.nz/computers/servers/servers/auction-943118844.htm | [18:56] |
| gizmoguy | I have two super-ancient Compaq blade chassis I could haul in here and host a VPS service on
p3 800mhz CPUs 12 blades per machine | [19:04] |
| mercutio | haha | [19:04] |
| gizmoguy | any buyers? | [19:04] |
| mercutio | your poor ears | [19:04] |
| brycec | WHAAAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU, mercutio | [19:05] |
| gizmoguy | I have headphones | [19:06] |
| mercutio | heh
do you have gigabit internet? | [19:06] |
| gizmoguy | yip | [19:07] |
| mercutio | maybe you should start hosting then :) | [19:07] |
| gizmoguy | I have 10gig too | [19:07] |
| mercutio | cool
can you do 10 gigabit to the US? | [19:07] |
| gizmoguy | for selected routes | [19:08] |
| mercutio | internet2 routes? | [19:08] |
| gizmoguy | yeah | [19:08] |
| brycec | How's powe?
*power? | [19:08] |
| mercutio | probably better than power at my home :/
mercutio had a power cut last month | [19:09] |
| gizmoguy | runs straight to a substation | [19:09] |
| mercutio | they're what go wrong! | [19:09] |
| brycec | I was getting at backup battery/generator, not amount of power available | [19:09] |
| gizmoguy | we've had a few micro-blips recently though
car smashed into a powerpole which took out 4 streets | [19:09] |
| mercutio | that's pretty impressive | [19:10] |
| gizmoguy | and that meant the substation dropped a few cycles for whatever reason | [19:10] |
| mercutio | here it'd take out multiple suburbs :) | [19:10] |
| gizmoguy | WEL networks have a pretty good setup
I don't understand their setup but it works the 4 streets weren't next to each other | [19:10] |
| mercutio | yeah it's kind of disturbing when you realise the substation is 10+km away
and that everywhere between you and there is out not that i ever had high expectations for auckland power :) with led lights you can't see blips right? | [19:10] |
| brycec | Depends. But LED lights are already blipping because they're driven by PWM
(well, they're modulated by PWM) | [19:14] |
| mercutio | ahh i haven't noticed | [19:14] |
| brycec | Exactly | [19:14] |
| mercutio | some monitors pwm is quite noticable | [19:14] |
| brycec | You're not supposed to notice ;P | [19:14] |
| mercutio | especially when you dim then
them | [19:15] |

| brycec | gizmoguy: You just need a better IRC client - weechat lines up all messages (rather than by nick) | [21:33] |
| gizmoguy | :O
I have been considering switching away from irssi for a while now... | [21:34] |
| brycec | No better reason than "it makes you look fat" :) | [21:34] |
| mercutio | did you register gizmoguy yet? | [21:41] |
| gizmoguy | I think I did | [21:42] |
| mercutio | cool
