thumperthe child in me wants more snow03:47
thumperthe parent wants the kids to go back to school :-|03:48
* ojwb just wants more snow - I guess that's the lack of kids...03:48
ojwbnot sure when I last saw this much snow where I was living03:49
ojwbwe had some in liverpool, uk, but it wasn't this much03:49
* ajmitch was rather disappointed this morning with the lack of snow03:51
chiltsin Liverpool we'd sometimes get this much, but not every year03:53
chiltsmy brother in newcastle had a month's worth of snow last year and in some parts about a foot or two deep03:53
thumperoh arse03:58
thumpersnow!03:58
thumperI wonder if it'll settle03:59
chiltsit almost seems normal now04:02
ajmitchthumper: not from where I can see04:03
thumperajmitch: I'm a little more elevated than you04:04
ajmitchI guess being up on the hill has its privileges04:04
thumperit hasn't stayed snowing though04:04
thumpernot sure if relieved or disappointed04:04
ajmitchI doubt much will settle from now on, unless it snows overnight again04:04
ojwbit's really settling here - probably an inch in the past hour or two from looking at the fence top04:06
ajmitchit's just not right when wellington is getting more snow than dunedin :)04:07
timClickssnow now settling on the ground here04:19
ojwbi think it's snowing harder now too04:31
thumperno snow here04:32

hadsibeardslee: Did you ever find your rack power boards?21:54
ibeardsleefound some that come close21:55
ibeardsleemetered PDU21:56
ibeardsleethe monitored or metered per outlet all seem to come in rack hieght and only 20 outlets21:56
ibeardsleefound some that are metered for the PDU (not per outlet), with 20 outlets and we can fit two per side of the rack21:57
hadsJust ran across these, you've probably seen them though; http://www.apc.com/products/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP885821:57
ibeardsleehttp://wirednz.co.nz/power-rails21:57
ibeardsleethe 902.00 mm height means we can still only fit one on each side of the rack .. a 38U rack needs just under 80 outlets (2 per 1U server)21:59
