[18:53] hi Pendulum, what was the wordpress.com blog again? [19:46] found it, but still can't log on [19:46] can you try deleting me and re-inviting me please [23:33] hiyas AlanBell and jono :) [23:34] hey phillw [23:34] :-) [23:34] jono: I hope life is treating you well? [23:36] phillw, good thanks :-) [23:36] just too much email, but that is always the case :-) [23:38] jono: join the club, and I bet I get a fraction of what you get :D [23:40] I'm glad that the email I sent you met with your approval. [23:40] phillw, totally :-) [23:40] jono, a shame your stream was so bad [23:40] I would have loved to listen a bit more [23:41] congrats on the donation [23:42] jono: I will never forget http://www.jonobacon.org/2008/12/19/the-ubuntu-ethos/ It is on my Signature, although may be getting replaced with hajour's poem. [23:44] phillw, :-) [23:44] UndiFineD, so bad? [23:45] i heard 3 seconds of speech and then another 5 secs delay [23:45] ahhh [23:47] and for some reason chromium chooses to use cpu of the charts, [23:47] it is not my bandwidth [23:49] UndiFineD: my American friend booked extra bandwidth for his Apache ceremony (He's native American), but the server just got flooded with people logging on. It was almost like a DDoS except it was people who wanted to watch and listen. [23:50] yeah, those are the best ddosses [23:50] happens to the podcast too [23:50] which is why I like to see more use of round robin dns [23:51] live streams are always a problem, how much bandwidth and server CPU time do you buy? [23:51] simple RRDNS is a workaround, not a solution... ;) [23:53] but together we have all the bandwidth we need [23:54] If they could do it as they do with torrents, that would be a massive step forward. You have a few leeches on the main feed then seeding it out. [23:55] torrented gobby ? [23:55] torrenting things like jono's speech at UDS-N [23:55] it would be more useful if multicast was implemented all over the internet... ;) [23:55] but in real time [23:56] then the hosting server would have no more outgoing streams than it has gateways (in most cases: 1) [23:56] heh JanC but they (provider) love to charge [23:57] UndiFineD: this would cut costs for providers too [23:57] except that they would need to buy new network equipment ;) [23:58] IIRC IPv6 has better multicast support too (but I'm not a specialist in that) [23:58] JanC: there are enough arguments going on about the 'free' transfer of video from server to server at the moment. We can only hope to find a temporary fix within the free community whilst the "Big Boys" argues it out [23:59] I do not want to see a two tier system, which is what the current argument seems to be about.
