| ali1234 | it's out | 18:16 |
| ali1234 | build 14316 is downloading | 18:16 |
| popey | how do you get it? | 18:18 |
| popey | "it" | 18:18 |
| popey | aha https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2016/04/06/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-14316/ | 18:19 |
| ali1234 | yeah, that | 18:19 |
| popey | neat | 18:19 |
| ali1234 | oh i see the problem | 19:06 |
| ali1234 | windows is uploading at the maximum possible speed | 19:06 |
| ali1234 | jamming up the router | 19:06 |
| ali1234 | haven't seen this since about 2002 | 19:06 |
| daftykins | ali1234: would you not want to use the max speed? granted you've got that quite anaemic connection? | 21:15 |
| ali1234 | no the problem is it's uploading at the maximum speed | 21:16 |
| ali1234 | the download speed then drops to a few kb | 21:16 |
| daftykins | what's uploading? | 21:16 |
| ali1234 | no idea | 21:16 |
| daftykins | hmm bit of sherlock sleuthing in task manager with network IO columns added perhaps | 21:17 |
| daftykins | i'm finding the task manager so much nicer to watch network IO vs. 7 | 21:17 |
| ali1234 | well now it is refusing to do anything at all | 21:19 |
| daftykins | what should it be doing? downloading this new release? | 21:20 |
| ali1234 | yes | 21:20 |
| daftykins | if it's just come out it could be bogged down providing it | 21:21 |
| daftykins | the % indicator can give some clues, however | 21:21 |
| ali1234 | the traffic is due to service host: local system | 21:23 |
| ali1234 | windows insider service, delivery optimization, windows update, a bunch of other stuff | 21:24 |
| ali1234 | total network usage: send: 80 Kbps, receive 5.8Mbps | 21:24 |
| ali1234 | all other computers on my LAN get really slow internet unless i unplug the cable from the win10 VM, then it works fine | 21:25 |
| daftykins | yeah i don't think you can cap BITS | 21:31 |
| daftykins | i think that's more a sign of the funky issues on your line giving you a slow service than much else | 21:31 |
| daftykins | saturating any xDSL's downstream never gridlocked the rest of a LAN for me | 21:31 |
| daftykins | it'd be nice if MS would just post new media | 21:32 |
| ali1234 | lol now it it's started downloading the iso again from scratch | 21:48 |
| daftykins | what makes you say that? it doesn't get an ISO, but the files | 21:50 |
| ali1234 | well i can't see any other reason why it would need to download 4GB of data | 21:51 |
| daftykins | could've corrupted something i guess, i think it grabs the install.wim in one go | 21:52 |
| daftykins | you would think BITS would prevent a failure of that kind though, given it's almost torrent like :/ | 21:53 |
| awilkins | Background Idiotic Transfer System | 22:18 |
| daftykins | mmm 3.8GB image for that latest build | 22:38 |
| diddledan | weird. installed a new marvell sata card into my pc and linux promptly refused to start until I turned-on the IOMMU | 22:53 |
| diddledan | apparently linux defaults to hijacking the GART for IOMMU use unless you tell it you've got a real IOMMU in your chip (and that you've got BIOS support for the same and it's enabled) | 22:54 |
| diddledan | and that GART-based mess dies with marvell chips | 22:54 |
| daftykins | needed more SATA ports and dualbooting from a drive attached to said marvell now? | 22:55 |
| diddledan | nope | 22:55 |
| diddledan | just needed more ports period | 22:55 |
| daftykins | ah | 22:56 |
| diddledan | the dualbooting is using my mobo sata chip which has never had any problems | 22:56 |
| daftykins | *nod* didn't even expect you dualbooted was all :) | 22:56 |
| daftykins | i am muchly excited, finally took the plunge and ordered some bits for a new desktop... first upgrade since December 2007 | 22:57 |
| diddledan | yeah. I flipflop because I can't settle on a single choice | 22:57 |
| zmoylan-pi | a desktop... i remember those... | 22:59 |
| daftykins | now now, just because you don't use one ;) | 23:04 |
| zmoylan-pi | not any more. used to love them. a full tower at work, a mini tower at home | 23:04 |
| zmoylan-pi | now a rasp pi is so close to doing what i want... :-) | 23:05 |
| daftykins | i love me some multi tasking and virtualisation | 23:05 |
| zmoylan-pi | i would like if they standardised on external drives in size so they were more stackable | 23:05 |
| daftykins | hehe, never happen | 23:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | the marketing department loves their exciting shapes... | 23:08 |
| daftykins | oddly enough i think the 2.5" bus powered portables i've bought over the years are still working now, yet desktop ones with mains adapters to drive them have all conked out (for clients) | 23:09 |
| ali1234 | oh hey it finished downloading | 23:09 |
| daftykins | can't rule out them abusing the things mind you | 23:10 |
| zmoylan-pi | a client abuse hardware... that would never happen... | 23:10 |
| daftykins | :D | 23:10 |
| daftykins | perish the thought indeed! | 23:10 |
| daftykins | could always get yourself a nice consumer 2-4 bay NAS and swap disks as need be ;) | 23:11 |
| zmoylan-pi | what putting the pc on a shop floor and having a drone mop the floor would rust the pc... why didn't you tell us that would happen?! | 23:11 |
| daftykins | i wonder if the steel company i look after have made up the metal trays i suggested they put their PCs on to save them from the dust brought in. It's not like they have a metal work warehouse immediately outside the office mind y... oh they do | 23:12 |
| daftykins | 8D | 23:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | i'm sure i told you of the 386 we put it tights to keep the dust out in a metal working shop... | 23:13 |
| daftykins | hahaha :D | 23:14 |
| daftykins | i'll suggest that one next time! | 23:14 |
| daftykins | there was an article on thereg where some folks decided to cover everything internally with kitchen cling film... | 23:15 |
| ali1234 | how do you save a file with edge? | 23:15 |
| daftykins | pass, don't use it. | 23:15 |
| * daftykins pokes diddledan | 23:15 | |
| zmoylan-pi | with one leg hanging over the floppy drive with a hole cut in bottom so that you could insert floppy without leaving a gap for dust to get in | 23:15 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 23:15 |
| diddledan | ali1234: right-click it? | 23:16 |
| ali1234 | yeah i did that and it saved it as a htm file | 23:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | yeah, i read theregister clingfilm whoopsie... i mentioned the tights in the comments :-) | 23:16 |
| daftykins | zmoylan-pi: :D | 23:17 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pi: I hope your floppies had protection | 23:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | it was one of those silly things you do and it worked. | 23:17 |
| diddledan | inserting random floppies into your drive is dangerous | 23:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | yeah the floppy drive worked fine. the disks were kept in box and not left out for metal dust to deposit on | 23:18 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pi: http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m947hukfRr1qfje60.jpg | 23:18 |
| daftykins | safety first! | 23:19 |
| ali1234 | okay... it's downloading ubuntu now | 23:56 |
