SymmetriaIn a recent survey performed by Wakefield Research, it has been discovered that the majority of the surveyed Americans are quite confused about the notion of Cloud, when it relates to Cloud Storage/Computing. The most interesting fact is that 51% of the surveyed persons thought that stormy weather interferes with cloud computing!08:36
SymmetriaHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA08:36
Symmetriathats some funny shit right there08:36
jrgnshehe09:47
jrgnscan someone pls clarify for me09:48
jrgnswhen an ISP said it has updated the DNS for a domain, but the records return by dig @primary.dns.server thedomain.co.za doesn't reflect the change09:49
jrgnsdoes that mean the dns still needs to propagate, or that the ISP didn't change it?09:49
Symmetriait means they didnt change it or didnt update the serial nubmer possibly09:52
Symmetriabecause the primary should reflect the change09:52
jrgnsthat's what I'm thinking as well09:55
jrgnsand the primary is the server recorded in the whois, correct?09:55
jrgnsprimaryfqdn09:56
charlvnSymmetria: usually we would have thought it's just because americans are stupid but in this instance it's perfectly understandable10:18
charlvni really hate the "cloud" hype and even the term10:18
charlvnthere is no such thing as a "cloud", only actual physical data centres with actual physical computers10:19
charlvnjrgns: sounds right10:21
charlvnjrgns: it could have been that they changed the dns records in some domain management utility and that it only synchronises with the actual authorative nameservers every few minutes10:22
jrgnscharlvn: possible. it took hours to update, though10:25
jrgnscharlvn: just gave up, phoned in and talked the guy through it10:25
