arch doesn't seem to have finger
but openbsd still does
wow, you can finger peeringdb
That's what she said!!
pretty much...
You can get the same data via whois
whois -h whois.peeringdb.com AS25795
And if you know where to look, you can download a sql dump which you can import and do your own processing on
But that sql dump is going away in peeringdb 2.0 and the only machine interface will be a RESTful json thing
peweringdb 2.0 seems to take ages
i mean it's been coming for ages
woo "Outage Report" thanks up_the_irons, mercutio etc
(if only it were more timely :P)
hey i was more timely and you complained :)
True!
ooh and a reply from the big man himself \o/
brycec complained that mercutio was too timely?? ;)
mercutio: The beta works just fine. I follow the discussions on the mailing list when I have time
09:21:42          brycec ? mercutio: "Gremlins" is not really an acceptable reason/hypothesis for a service that I pay for :P
I think mercutio meant "when [i] complained" ;)
is what i meant
brycec: i had meant to send out the notice yesterday, but got distracted
then saw your ticket, so figured now what a good time...
Cool
s/what/was/
<up_the_irons> then saw your ticket, so figured now was a good time...
(just because the charge is a surprise)
it happens at roughly the same time every month?
mercutio: annual ;)
oh
that makes much more sense then
Being an annual charge, I forget all about it until my CC company notifies me :P
heh
they notify you?
Yes
do they block your credit card?
Just notify
for having a random charge?
oh ok
brycec: why annual, when 6 months gets the same 10% discount?
I'd been paying annually for a previous VPS, and it just simplified life
