.............. (idle for 1h6mn)
mercutioi think hotline was more common here
or something like that
it was this thing where you connected to servers rather than users, kind of like ftp
starting off on mac's
[13:07]
mnathani_August 1997 – Hotline is announced at MacWorld,[17] and allows chat, forums, and file transfers. It becomes popular among Mac users.

mnathani_Napster came 2 years later [13:08]
mercutioyeh
and was only good for individual songs rather than albums
so was only really if you were into downloading "top songs"
[13:08]
mnathani_and you could only go as fast as your peer [13:09]
mercutiopersonally i bought 1 or 2 cd's a week back then [13:09]
mnathani_kazaa was where it split the file and did partial downloads [13:09]
mercutiodownloaded mp3s were usually terrible quality back then. [13:10]

mnathani_do you know how magent torrent links work? [13:25]
mercutiousing dht
i don't know how dht works though
well other than it's some kind of huge mesh thing
i'd like to see something like dht/bittorrent web sites..
[13:25]
mnathani_appears to work like magic [13:26]
mercutiowithout all the encryption etc of tor.
like "cloud" hosting..
where cloud means in the cloud, not a cloud server
[13:26]
BryceBotTO THE CLOUD!!! [13:27]
mnathani_cloud is probably the most misunderstood, yet commonly used tech term
private cloud, public cloud, a VPS called cloud, a dedicated called cloud etc
[13:28]
mercutioyip [13:29]
mnathani_rackspace do dedicated cloud [13:29]
............ (idle for 56mn)
mercutiowhat's dedicated cloud? [14:25]
mnathani_single tenant on a machine
bare metal
no virtualization
but provisioned like cloud so quick spin up of additional instances
[14:32]
mkbI think a lot of people use cloud to mean quick [14:33]
mercutioahh
when i think cloud i think expensive hourly billing :)
[14:34]
mnathani_Up to 36 processor cores and 1.5TB of RAM [14:34]
mercutioif you need that many resources surely you some advance notice :) [14:35]
mkband outside of IT it just means high-tech... like iCloud [14:35]
mercutioheh when something begins with i i think low-tech [14:35]
mnathani_lol on microsoft pulling unlimited storage from their onedrive for business [14:36]
mercutioapple are actually doing pretty well though
but their branding makes things seem terrible.
amazon are giving me cloud storage for a year
i don't want it though
"unlimited cloud storage"
[14:36]
mnathani_Microsoft is ending unlimited OneDrive storage plans, citing user abuse, the company said in a blog post late Monday. Current unlimited users will be capped at 1 terabyte. It also plans to eliminate 100GB and 200GB plans, and offer a reduced 50GB plan for $1.99 per month instead. Its free offering will be cut from 15GB down to just 5GB. [14:37]
mercutiovalid until dec 31.
hmm is this why amazon are doing some free unlimited storage cloud?
apparently it's because i purchased a ssd.
[14:37]
mnathani_Unlimited Photo Storage [14:38]
mercutioi have unlimited everything [14:38]
mnathani_special for newzealand? [14:38]
mercutiooh some lame desktop app
nope special for the US
go figure
This offer is valid until December 31, 2015 in the US only and cannot be shared with anyone else. Your
[14:38]
mkbusually the people ~.
usually the people saying i* think it's high tech at least
[14:40]
mercutioi'm not doing freight forwarding or anything. i don't trust those places.
and it's like $6 or $7 usd to ship a ssd.
so not insane shipping costs.
i wonder how much people were storing on unlimited
oh, some users had 75+ TB
i wonder how long that took to fill :)
[14:40]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [14:48]
mercutiodamn these sandisk ssd's are cheap
mercutio is gettign rather tempted
i assume it's some pre-thanksgiving sale or such
[15:00]
mnathani_(75 terabytes) / (100 (megabits per second)) = 69.4444444 days
double the days if you go down to 50mbit etc
who even has 25 x 3TB drives on a single machine these days anyway?
[15:09]
....... (idle for 31mn)
mercutioyou'd need more than that
imagine 25 disk raid 0
oh ... is this why comcast are introducing caps? :)
[15:41]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [15:41]
mercutioa drive just died.. i have to redownload the internet! [15:42]
