[05:18]  * nlsthzn waves
[07:21] <nuvolari> nlsthzn: waves are dangerous... see what it did in japan
[07:21] <nuvolari> g'morning everyone
[07:21] <nlsthzn> nuvolari: ouch... sorry...
[07:21] <nlsthzn> morning btw :)
[07:21] <superfly> hahaha
[07:22] <superfly> morning nuvolari, nlsthzn
[07:22] <nlsthzn> hey superfly
[08:18] <nuvolari> so... *cough* twitter *cough*
[08:18] <nuvolari> anyone for tea?
[08:18] <nlsthzn> ?
[08:22] <nuvolari> nlsthzn: you don't know?
[08:22] <nuvolari> it asked 3rd party developers to stop developing twitter client applications
[08:23] <nuvolari> http://arstechnica.com/software/news/2011/03/twitter-tells-third-party-devs-to-stop-making-twitter-client-apps.ars
[08:23] <nlsthzn> nuvolari: clearly not?!
[08:27] <nlsthzn> wow... kind of sucks me thinks :/
[08:38] <nuvolari> ye, if you read the article
[08:40] <nlsthzn> seems a silly reason... and I doubt any developer will stop :)
[08:48] <nuvolari> nlsthzn: well... I see kinda differently: they get a "screw you" from twitter, and they helped twitter became what it now is. Either there's going to be revenge or sabotage
[08:48] <Symmetria> hrm
[08:48] <Symmetria> can someone try download something from sourceforge plz
[08:48] <nlsthzn> also possible... a nobody wins situation
[08:49] <Symmetria> (and tell me what happens when you do)
[08:52] <nlsthzn> Symmetria: pop me a link to something and I will d/l for you
[08:53] <nuvolari> Symmetria: it uses the tenet mirror
[08:53] <Symmetria> http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc-mp/files/
[08:53] <Symmetria> there nls
[08:53] <nuvolari> nothing really happened
[08:53] <Symmetria> nuvolari heh, so its using the tenet mirror correctly?
[08:53] <Symmetria> sweet
[08:53] <nuvolari> Symmetria: I guess so 
[08:54] <Symmetria> we're definately seeing hits on it which is a good
[08:54] <nlsthzn> it downloads... :p
[08:54] <Symmetria> nls from TENET?
[08:55] <nlsthzn> I'm not in SA :p
[08:56] <nlsthzn> http://citylan.dl.sourceforge.net
[08:56] <Symmetria> oh doh
[08:56] <nlsthzn> lol
[08:56] <Symmetria> do you have the option to pick another mirror
[08:56] <nlsthzn> sorry
[08:56] <Symmetria> and will it let you pick tenet
[08:56] <Symmetria> (thats the other thing I wanted to see, if we're in the proper list yet)
[08:56] <nlsthzn> I just used wget 
[08:56] <Symmetria> heh use a browser lol
[08:57] <nlsthzn> shows cape town, south africa but no link in the mirror list
[09:37] <Symmetria> wow the nuke plant in japan blew up
[09:41] <nlsthzn> pretty bad...
[09:43] <nlsthzn> talking about bad... the indians are murderising the Proteas currently OO
[11:33] <superfly> Symmetria: it didn't blow up, there was an explosion... slight difference ;-)
[12:26] <Tonberry> hey Symmetria whats the ip range for mirror.ac.za?
[12:44] <Symmetria> 155.232.191.0/24
[12:44] <Tonberry> tnx
[12:44] <Symmetria> How come?
[12:45] <Tonberry> need to set up my firewall not to forward those ips to the university proxy
[12:45] <Symmetria> aahh :)
[12:45] <Symmetria> you might wanna do the same with 155.232.240.0/24 if you can :)
[12:46] <Symmetria> (which contains youtube and google and stuff)
[12:46] <Tonberry> oh
[12:46] <Tonberry> wonder if they allow that from here...
[12:46] <Tonberry> will test
[12:46] <Symmetria> heh try it and see :) lemme know as well, Im curious
[12:50] <Symmetria> root@mirror:/diskspace4/sourceforge# netstat -na |grep ESTABLISHED |grep -c 155.232.191.245
[12:50] <Symmetria> 239
[12:50] <Symmetria> heh ^^^ sourceforge
[12:50] <Symmetria> nice
[12:57] <Tonberry> i still have to pay for 155.232.240.0/24 @ Symmetria
[12:58] <Symmetria> thats lame
[12:58] <Symmetria> you should whine to your IT department about that
[12:58] <Symmetria> since its also local to the TENET network
[12:58] <Tonberry> lol
[12:59] <Symmetria> :) but yeah, spread it around that people at stellies can have sourceforge for free :P
[12:59] <Tonberry> i told my it department that our billing system is inherently flawed Wednesday, i think they are still a bit angry/rattled...
[13:00] <Symmetria> :P don't worry you arent the only one that has told them similar :)
[13:00] <Tonberry> more stirring from me at the moment is probably not the best idea
[13:00] <Tonberry> i also told them exactly how to break it and tested it
[13:01] <Tonberry> a source ip is so easy to spoof....
[13:03] <Symmetria> yeah but how do you catch the return traffic?
[13:03] <Tonberry> you cant
[13:03] <Tonberry> but it does not matter
[13:03] <Symmetria> cause thats always the problem with spoofing tcp :)
[13:03] <Tonberry> you can inflate another persons account
[13:03] <Tonberry> to any amount
[13:03] <Symmetria> (well, you can, but LOL, its more complex than most realize)
[13:04] <Symmetria> haha well, if they are billing on outbound, yes, of course you can
[13:04] <Tonberry> and they do
[13:04] <Symmetria> :p see fakescan.c 
[13:04] <Symmetria> from when I was a young immature kid with way 2 much time on my hands :P
[13:04] <Tonberry> there is no advantage to doing it
[13:04] <Tonberry> but it does invalidate their billing method
[13:04] <Symmetria> tonberry haha fucking with some other student who is a prick is always fun :P
[13:05] <Tonberry> well IT now knows i know how to do it
[13:05] <Tonberry> so i won't
[13:05] <Tonberry> but yeah thats the general idea
[13:06] <Tonberry> and we have been having a lot of trouble with high internet accounts lately
[13:06] <Symmetria> lo Morganvd
[13:07] <Symmetria> morgan, heh, sourceforge is finally 100% live :P
[13:16] <Morganvd> nice
[13:16] <Morganvd> and btw Hello
[13:16] <Morganvd> brb
[13:21] <Symmetria> wow, the number of hits we're getting from mweb/wa/is is high
[13:22] <Symmetria> and vodacom
[13:38] <inetpro> Symmetria: congrats
[13:38] <inetpro> nice job!
[13:40] <Symmetria> heh
[13:40] <Symmetria> I wanna know who gp online are
[13:40] <Symmetria> and just how many machines they have
[13:40] <Symmetria> because it must be an insanely sick number
[13:40] <Symmetria> and they are ALL ubuntu machines
[13:40] <Tonberry> traffic from updates?
[13:41] <Symmetria> heh, of a million hits against za.archive.ubuntu.com since the 8th when we went back into rotation
[13:41] <Symmetria> 5.9 million of those
[13:41] <Symmetria> are one host 
[13:41] <Tonberry> wow
[13:42] <Symmetria> which I think is a proxy server 
[13:42] <Symmetria> 5904698	60.36%	234	0.02%	100305	0.01%	0	0.00%	0	0.00%	2	0.00%	41.154.0.174
[13:45] <Symmetria> http://mirror.ac.za/analyze/ctry_usage_201103.png <[13:46] <Tonberry> that graph looks like a relic from the past...
[13:46] <Symmetria> lol
[13:46] <Symmetria> webalizer
[17:19] <Morganvd> whoo whoo SA won
[17:19] <Morganvd> we might actualy stand a chance this year
[20:13]  * nuvolari watched the end of the nail-biting game
