jrgiffordi'm going to try and convince dad to swap the house over to ipv6.00:45
yanoi realize that my sites aren't working over ipv6 :-(00:49
yanoi think something is wrong with apache, because the domains are resolving to the correct ipv6 addresses00:49
yanowoot got it to work, apparently the last time i restarted my routes dissappeared00:52
yanosweet, now i can ssh proxy ipv6 connections from firefox00:55
yanojrgifford: you watching the cyberpunk video?01:03
jrgiffordyano: no, i had to leave, dad wasn't feeling good.01:27
jrgiffordI think I'll run a devops 101 discussion or something tomorrow. just for kicks, since i'm really enjoying this stuff.01:29
jrgiffordquickly re-setup a dual boot for my other laptop, install virtual box on it and fire up a few other VMs or something.01:30
BiosElement2I really dunno why people contact tech support for help and choose to call me a liar for stating the facts. >.> Don't ask if you don't want to know...08:36

paultag>:)15:45
paultaggilbert: how's life @debian.org? :)15:47
gilberti dunno, it doesn't really seem that different yet actually...15:48
gilbertkinda weird15:49
paultagYeah, I'm sure it's really only debian-private and people bugging you for sponsorship :)15:49
gilberti still feel restricted.  i've been trying to fix the state of wine but i'm not really getting anywhere15:49
paultagoh jeez15:49
paultagwine's a mess from what I can tell, what's blocking you?15:50
gilbertpaultag: there is absolutely nothing going on now in debian-private except boring vacation notices15:50
paultagyeah :)15:50
gilberthttp://bugs.debian.org/58540915:50
gilberthaven't really got any sponsorship requests yet15:51
gilbertdid get a key signing request, but when i asked the guy what he does for debian, he never replied back15:51
gilbertso oh well15:51
paultaggilbert: wow, that post from msp is fucking lame15:52
paultaggilbert: yeah, lame. Oh well :)15:52
paultaggah15:53
paultagthis is one giant ugly thread15:53
gilbertoh yes indeed15:53
gilbert:(15:53
paultaggilbert: you could do a hostile NMU ;)15:54
gilberti know, but that's bound to stir a lot of trouble15:54
paultaggah, this thread is a mess15:54
paultagyeah, for sure. Totally joking :)15:54
canthus13Whee. This MySQL dude is a bore....15:55
paultaggilbert: dude, last 5 messages were yours15:56
paultagthat's so lame15:56
paultaghow do they not say "Here's the commit bit, go nuts"15:56
paultagcanthus13: :)15:56
canthus13"Don't use ext2"  Who the fsck is gonna use ext2 on a database server built after 2001?15:56
paultagright?15:57
canthus13You'd have to put in extra work to install with ext2...15:57
gilbertpaultag: i have no f'ing clue.  its rediculous.  right now i'm sort of just making a point15:58
paultaggilbert: keep making it, this thread is a fucking mess15:58
paultagthis is what gives Debian a bad name15:58
paultagold versions and grumpy maintainers15:59
gilbertindeed15:59
gilbertand the social intractibility of allowing stogy maintainers to do this kind of thing15:59
paultagyeah, totally15:59
gilbertoh, and some random person has started a new thread about in on -devel just now...whee!16:01
gilbertnot sure what i want to say there...16:01
paultagoh man16:01
paultagI'm so happy I'm not on d-devel16:01
gilbertyou really should be as a prospective dd16:02
gilbertit doesn't get as ugly as it used to16:02
paultagI was on it for a long time, but it's just flame-war after flame-war16:02
paultagI just sit on -announce :)16:02
paultagbut you're right, I suspect16:02
paultagalright, re-joined it. Let's see how long it lasts :P16:03

paultagheckle!17:31
canthus13This is so slow I'm outtyping the connection.17:31
paultagtell him you've got a Debian ISO17:31

canthus13no prob.17:37
canthus13Cheri703: they're doing an all-day Python for Women workshop.  Looks to be pretty full, unlike the rest of the fest. :/17:46
Cheri703that's cool that they're doing it, bummer that the fest is not very well populated17:47
canthus13yeah. only 5 vendors showed. no ubuntu booth. :/17:47

jrgiffordyano: so, now when i tried to download another 3MB package, i get 16.4 kB/s. lol19:59
jrgiffordI think they are QoS'ing all package managers.19:59
yanojrgifford: yea, I was coding earlier over SSH and my SSH session timed out.19:59
jrgiffordyano: dang, that takes... a slow connection.20:00
yanojrgifford: actually the 1pm talk about Setting Up a Con network described how their network here is set up20:00
jrgiffordthank the lord for tmux and screen20:00
jrgiffordyano: ugh, i was at lunch then, otherwise i would have been in there.20:00
yanothey have a VPN through the hotel's connection that is able to shape traffic between it is sent from the ISP to the hotel20:00
jrgiffordoh, that makes sense. also explains why my IP is showing up at port clinton20:01
yanoyea, it's pretty complex20:01
yanoinstead of tunneling via ssh i'm trying a VPN20:16
Unit193Never really set one up, should do that at some point...20:18
yanono tunnleing or VPNing -- http://www.speedtest.net/result/1894680436.png20:27
yanoVPN -- http://www.speedtest.net/result/1894676026.png20:27
yanodid nothing20:28
jrgiffordyeah, its not really that nice.20:31
yanonope :-(20:35
yanois there a command to test bandwidth? besides just measuring the last number of downloading something with curl/wget ?20:35
canthus13yano: testing bandwidth accurately requires a server at the other end.21:04
yanocanthus13: yea, isn't there a command where it could do a speedtest like speedtest.net but via the cli? (where you feed in a server or something)21:05
