bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 13:29 |
daftykins | o/ | 13:35 |
gebbione | still stuck trying to understand how to get a good log out of anacron | 14:30 |
gebbione | creating my own within the scripts sounds a really bad way of doing things | 14:30 |
daftykins | oh look, a tumbleweed | 15:08 |
daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/9tzbpd5uh0wrdw6/IMG_20140719_160407.jpg | 15:08 |
daftykins | om nom nom | 15:08 |
penguin42 | oooh | 15:09 |
mapps | afternoon | 15:29 |
mapps | ;] | 15:29 |
mapps | uploading 1.7mb/s downloading at 4:D | 15:29 |
mapps | good riddance rubbish old 6mbit adsl | 15:29 |
penguin42 | good riddance now you're at 4? | 15:30 |
mapps | mb and mbit | 15:30 |
mapps | 6mbit before..downloading at 6Mb/s | 15:30 |
mapps | 4MB/s | 15:30 |
penguin42 | ah yes, and your upload speed? | 15:30 |
mapps | 19mbit max so around 2mb/s? | 15:31 |
mapps | says 1.9Mb/s up atm | 15:31 |
penguin42 | you mean 2MByte/s up? What's that on? | 15:32 |
mapps | yea | 15:32 |
mapps | fttc | 15:32 |
mapps | :D | 15:32 |
mapps | paying for 90/19 | 15:32 |
penguin42 | oh that's a very pleasent upstream, not found anyone with that before | 15:32 |
daftykins | err, 4MB/sec down is 40Mb odd ;) | 15:32 |
daftykins | that's what i have and get ^ | 15:33 |
* penguin42 is on 50Mbps down, 3Mbps up on the lowest virgin cable package | 15:33 | |
mapps | whats the up? | 15:33 |
mapps | whats the highest virgin package now? i remember having 512k ntl;p | 15:33 |
mapps | they upgrade people all the time on virgin too iirc | 15:33 |
daftykins | i have 5Mb up, so i tend to see ~580KB/sec tops | 15:33 |
* mapps wins | 15:34 | |
mapps | ;[ | 15:34 |
daftykins | i dunno, you're paying for 90 and seeing 40 down XD | 15:36 |
daftykins | also correct notation please, Mb and MB :P | 15:36 |
mapps | yes | 15:36 |
mapps | atm | 15:36 |
mapps | but ive had 6-7 down | 15:36 |
penguin42 | finding the upstream speed for packages on virgin is very difficult | 15:36 |
mapps | also mr know it all | 15:36 |
mapps | sky said they start it off slower and gradually increase it | 15:36 |
mapps | i guess to check my line can cope with te speed the tests say | 15:37 |
mapps | :D | 15:37 |
penguin42 | mapps: I reckon the top package is 152Mbps down, 12Mbps up | 15:37 |
daftykins | that's so iffy, the learning period used to be 2hrs but it starts at max then slowly drops if there are errors, not the other way around XD | 15:38 |
daftykins | 2hrs? 24-48hrs | 15:38 |
mapps | well | 15:38 |
mapps | im telling u what they said!!! | 15:38 |
mapps | :@ | 15:38 |
daftykins | dirty liars | 15:39 |
daftykins | :D | 15:39 |
mapps | :D | 15:39 |
mapps | still beats my lame 6mbit | 15:40 |
mapps | when i downloaded on my 6mbit i couldnt do ANYTHING else basically..itd kill my interet heh | 15:41 |
daftykins | yeah, us rock dwellers have had 16 for years on the basic service | 15:41 |
mapps | when did u get 40 | 15:41 |
daftykins | when i moved into this place, it'd been out since September of last i think | 15:42 |
mapps | ;] | 15:43 |
daftykins | nah hang on... September 2012 | 15:43 |
mapps | got 100gig of csi eps queued | 15:45 |
mapps | :D | 15:45 |
foobarry | i'm on 10Gb/s | 16:37 |
foobarry | actually i'd have to hop servers. only 1Gb/s on this server | 16:38 |
foobarry | last hop is my ADSL though...sometimes easier to do a train journey with a usb stick.. | 16:39 |
mapps | :D | 16:40 |
* penguin42 hands foobarry a pigeon | 16:45 | |
daftykins | all this "my connections fiber" is such a crock though | 16:47 |
* foobarry turns the oven to 180 | 16:48 | |
mapps | lol | 16:48 |
mapps | i was just saying daftykins i was stuck on rubbish for years | 16:49 |
mapps | and are you gonna say how its actually copper to the home?:P | 16:49 |
mapps | ;] | 16:49 |
daftykins | mapps: virgin media ads "our fiber network" | 16:49 |
daftykins | oh wait, we've got coax in all the roads | 16:49 |
mapps | heh | 16:49 |
mapps | btfibre isnt fibre to the house as such | 16:49 |
mapps | fibre to box and copper last leg to our house..no? | 16:50 |
foobarry | fttc = fibre to the cabinet innit? | 16:50 |
mapps | but people probaby think they got fibre in their home | 16:50 |
mapps | yea foobarry | 16:50 |
foobarry | the green cabinet | 16:50 |
mapps | yep | 16:50 |
mapps | but its sold as FIBRE FIBRE FIBRE | 16:50 |
mapps | ;D | 16:50 |
foobarry | then its a wet string | 16:50 |
mapps | yea | 16:50 |
foobarry | although virgin oversold their old cable previously, so fttc is better for virgin customers | 16:50 |
mapps | really? | 16:51 |
foobarry | because they were saturated from cabinet to exchange | 16:51 |
mapps | old cable?i didnt know theyd layedany new cable in years? | 16:51 |
foobarry | exactly | 16:51 |
foobarry | they were massively overselling their networks | 16:51 |
daftykins | are you talking virgin coax network, or their telephone DSL service? | 16:51 |
mapps | ah yea | 16:51 |
mapps | virgin coax | 16:51 |
foobarry | yep coax | 16:52 |
foobarry | they had these routers at the green cabinet that were chock full of customers connections, but in a high density area where the whole road was on virgin,... | 16:52 |
daftykins | ah ok | 16:52 |
daftykins | mmm it did seems to be held together with tape too | 16:53 |
foobarry | the guy would come and switch me between routers, saying the other one was 20x overcapacity | 16:53 |
daftykins | *seem | 16:53 |
penguin42 | foobarry: Here I get the listed bandwidth on virgin | 16:53 |
daftykins | haha, nice | 16:53 |
foobarry | but it woud still wouldn't work | 16:53 |
daftykins | yeah in Portsmouth i always got th advertised speeds | 16:53 |
foobarry | the engineer told me not to bother and get another service | 16:53 |
daftykins | damn it keyboard | 16:54 |
foobarry | he also said i wouldn't be able to get digital telly | 16:54 |
foobarry | i still had analogue cable at the time | 16:54 |
penguin42 | actually, I get over the listed bandwidth | 16:54 |
foobarry | service varies | 16:54 |
foobarry | and density | 16:54 |
foobarry | but when u see a virgin van in your street... | 16:54 |
penguin42 | our vans seem to be named after film characters; there's a virgin van called van Helsing around here | 16:55 |
foobarry | its often the whole street with issues | 16:55 |
foobarry | (in london) | 16:55 |
foobarry | they were just shuffling cards | 16:55 |
penguin42 | yeh well it's a shared coax | 16:55 |
foobarry | yeah | 16:55 |
foobarry | i used to know the network router thing they used | 16:55 |
daftykins | you always see the boxes outside properties with their covers missing too | 16:55 |
mapps | any of u setup strongswan before? still struggling | 16:55 |
daftykins | coax exposed to the elements | 16:55 |
mapps | haha yea | 16:56 |
penguin42 | but in the end it's no different to infinity, that's fibre to the cab, so is Virgin, only difference is what comes off it | 16:56 |
foobarry | they are druggie deaddrops | 16:56 |
daftykins | foobarry: ah, cunning | 16:56 |
mapps | lol foobarry | 16:56 |
penguin42 | mapps: oh god I've not done ipsec for many years | 16:56 |
foobarry | and vomit filled | 16:56 |
foobarry | mapps: openswan i used to know | 16:56 |
mapps | http://tiebing.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/windows-7-ikev2-error-13806.html?m=1 | 16:56 |
foobarry | but its been a wile | 16:56 |
mapps | ive read so much tutorials and docs | 16:56 |
foobarry | ..i see windows.. | 16:56 |
mapps | including strongswan wiki | 16:56 |
mapps | yea windows client | 16:56 |
foobarry | heh | 16:56 |
foobarry | good luck | 16:57 |
mapps | just having problems | 16:57 |
foobarry | disable all the firewalls | 16:57 |
mapps | i only want to switch due to the openvpn issue=[ | 16:57 |
foobarry | haven't been able to get my microserver out the box yet | 16:57 |
foobarry | kids eh | 16:57 |
mapps | what server | 16:57 |
mapps | what u get it for | 16:57 |
foobarry | hp n54l | 16:57 |
foobarry | storing my stuffs | 16:58 |
mapps | :D | 16:58 |
mapps | how much storage | 16:58 |
foobarry | music, video rips, photos, documents | 16:58 |
mapps | running ubuntu/xubuntu or..? | 16:58 |
foobarry | 3TB in RAID1 but it has 4 slots | 16:58 |
foobarry | ubuntu server | 16:58 |
mapps | cool | 16:58 |
foobarry | 14.04 | 16:58 |
daftykins | aww a wee baby :D | 16:58 |
foobarry | to encrypt or not encrypt:? | 16:58 |
mapps | yes | 16:58 |
foobarry | the 3TB | 16:58 |
daftykins | are your cat/dog pics that important? | 16:58 |
mapps | thatll be my next job AFTER i fix strongswan | 16:58 |
mapps | ;p | 16:58 |
mapps | so next year | 16:59 |
mapps | heh | 16:59 |
foobarry | the whole fs is not necessary to encrypt | 16:59 |
daftykins | all the users i see come in #ubuntu with broken encryption setups... oh my my. | 16:59 |
foobarry | maybe sensitive stuff on a encrypted bit | 16:59 |
daftykins | passwords.txt? | 16:59 |
penguin42 | foobarry: Yes it is | 16:59 |
penguin42 | actually, for my home stuff I just encrypt one parttion, for work I do the lot | 17:00 |
foobarry | truecrypt?luks? | 17:01 |
mapps | what do people use to store passwords..and no not your brain;p im sure someone mentioned something for storing passwords and ids etc | 17:01 |
foobarry | keeppassx | 17:01 |
foobarry | with a password and key | 17:01 |
daftykins | pencil and paper | 17:02 |
foobarry | vim -x | 17:02 |
foobarry | keeppassx is pretty user friendly | 17:03 |
foobarry | and offline | 17:03 |
foobarry | daftykins: the potential for losing the whole data scares me | 17:03 |
foobarry | if encrypted | 17:04 |
foobarry | truecrpyt has been soured a bit too | 17:04 |
daftykins | users have done this and come into #ubuntu asking for magical workarounds | 17:04 |
daftykins | yeah, truecrypt seems pretty dead - although i think i heard some claim there are 'good versions' ? | 17:04 |
foobarry | 7.1a | 17:04 |
penguin42 | just keeps passwords in text files inside a luks encrypted partition | 17:05 |
foobarry | but there is encfs and luks | 17:05 |
foobarry | think i will encfs private stuff since i dont need to access it unless using laptop | 17:19 |
mapps | what cpu u got in tht hp foobarry | 17:59 |
* daftykins gives mapps more keys to type | 17:59 | |
mapps | :D | 18:01 |
mapps | so tired | 18:19 |
mapps | :< | 18:19 |
daftykins | then have a nap, then fire ze missiles | 18:21 |
mapps | ;] | 18:28 |
daftykins | i ordered that £2.99 new power button cable for my friends iPhone 4 | 18:29 |
daftykins | that's going to be some serious surgery. | 18:29 |
mapps | urgh taking apart iphones sucks | 18:29 |
mapps | u got the sucker pad and screwdriver etc | 18:29 |
daftykins | indeed, well i've got the 54-bit screwdriver kit from ifixit | 18:29 |
daftykins | bought it for myself for general computer work etc. | 18:30 |
daftykins | it has pretty much all you need | 18:30 |
daftykins | it seems all these cheap add-ons from ebay come with all manner of cheap tools too though | 18:30 |
mapps | yea | 18:31 |
mapps | true | 18:31 |
daftykins | i suspect they'd be the types that have the driver-shaft infinitely spin in a plastic handle though if you used them for any length of time :D | 18:32 |
daftykins | i should really order one of the spare screw sets at the same time, only about £5 | 18:32 |
mapps | ah yea | 18:33 |
daftykins | but yeah it's working fine besides the power button | 18:33 |
mapps | cheap rubbish normally | 18:33 |
daftykins | my mate has it modded so repeated presses of the home button power it off | 18:33 |
mapps | ah | 18:33 |
daftykins | i don't want to wipe it and install a clean iOS until power's fixed | 18:33 |
daftykins | else it can't be turned off :D | 18:33 |
DJones | Hmmh, earthquake in Jersey https://twitter.com/Jersey_Met/status/490584391228596224 | 19:54 |

daftykins | i myself was out buying lunch at the time - didn't feel a thing | 19:57 |
maps|wrk | hello | 19:57 |
DJones | Heh, don't normally feel them in the uk | 19:57 |
maps|wrk | :D | 19:57 |

Azelphur | (well, 13 is a guess, somewhere around that) | 20:41 |
maps|wrk | cool..never used hangouts - was that to do with googles experts thing or am i getting mixed up | 20:44 |
Azelphur | maps|wrk: nah, just a chat network. | 20:48 |
