ant: mercutio: deutsche telekom is still (one of?) the biggest isps in germany and users might actually blame cf instead of dt for slow connections
mercutio: the problem is also that the other major isps in germany also sucks, e.g. kabel deutschland has weekly (short) outages and several times a year bigger outages and also much congestion in their access layer during peek hours
mercutio: damn. yeah, it was more idealism than anything else :)
they'd have to be pretty big to get away with it
they're getting bigger and bigger though.
plett: That cloudflare article isn't being entirely accurate. They are saying that, because they peer 60% of their traffic in Europe, their cost is only the remaining 40%. This only works if peering has zero cost, which it doesn't
ant: mercutio: a friend of mine told me that he couldn't watch youtube with his dt internet connection without buffering but when routes everything trough a vpn to some other country it works fine... (peering between dt and google is a huge problem because google doesn't want to pay dt for transit)
mercutio: hmm, if google can't move theem, not much hope for cf.
it's good that google are doing that in a way though :)
ant: mercutio: also this is pretty pervert: https://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/Double_Paid_Traffic/en
mercutio: well there are fixed costs, and variable costs with bandwidth often plett.
the cost of 10gbe peering is generally pretty cheap though.
wow
that seems a sensible way to go in some ways.
BryceBot: That's what she said!!
mercutio: i mean to charge customers extra if they want to have more direct connectivity
have you guys seen the nytimes thing about wechat?

ant: it think it's the most sensible thing hetzner can do, but i still think it sucks that dt is holding their clients hostage
mercutio: yeah
but if google can't change them i don't know who can
fIorz_: bad customer experience?

BryceBot: Oh, okay... I'm sorry. 'that seems a sensible way to go in some ways.'
sjackso: does brycebot simply throw that line out at random, or is there some kind of pattern it triggers on?
brycec: sjackso: Bayesian learning, actually.

But you get the idea.
It's a PHP implementation of this https://github.com/lsblakk/scottbot
(not directly, but the idea of it)
This is the spiffiest speedtest I've seen... ever. /Lots/ of details, and no flash. https://sourceforge.net/speedtest/

nathani: brycec: no way to easily share results though
brycec: Then you'll just have to trust me when I say I have a 12Tbps connection :D
It's a bummer, but worth it for the detailed results.
