cyberangerYeah, the results have me trumped01:47
cyberangerDidn't expect either to get this far01:53
minasotaprotest have started...02:01
OmnifrogI have banned all forms of news/media in the house for a week02:07
minasotahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UvOxrQdLrU  <-- Find out who the background music is... I like it but can't find anything02:09
minasota^ has nothing to do with news/media btw02:10
Omnifrogwhy are so many people wanting to know?02:17
Omnifrogit's kinda unremarkable music02:17
cyberangerOmnifrog has banned news for a week, in other news tor is perfect for getting around Omnifrog's censorship ;-)02:27
Omnifrogmy youngest child still living at home doesnt know about tor yet02:28
Omnifrogand wife doesnt care02:28
cyberangerOmnifrog any proxy?02:28
Omnifrogme or the kid?02:29
* cyberanger is using tor now due to a port restriction on this hotspot.02:29
cyberangerThe youngin02:29
Omnifrogno02:29
Omnifrogmy youngest is spoiled02:30
OmnifrogI built his box and I maintain it for the most part02:30
Omnifroghe's not really interested in security or privacy02:31
Omnifroghe doesnt consider them real things02:32
* cyberanger remembers bypassing administratior so many times it caused my interest in security, boarding school's content filter blocking sourceforge causing my privacy desires02:33
cyberangerLikely would have happened anyway, but it accelerated the process for sure.02:33
Omnifrogthere is the possibility that my kid has found workarounds02:37
Omnifroghe is an exceptional kid02:37
Omnifroghe got his first computer when he was 202:38
Omnifrogthat was in 200202:38
Omnifroghe's had his own desktop ever sense02:39
OmnifrogI "think" I have been able to stay one step ahead of him02:40
cyberangerHard part is the second he's ahead, it's over02:49
Omnifrogheh03:07
OmnifrogI still control the router03:08
wrstcyberanger: any suggestions on a good gigabit Ethernet card?03:12
wrstOmnifrog: ^^^03:12
cyberangerOmnifrog so does my adversaries, and given enough time and resources I win.03:27
OmnifrogEPB gigabit fiber is nice and all but all of my gear is still 10/10003:29
cyberangerwrst KillerNIC is overkill, intel chipsets rock, there's not really a wrong answer though03:29
cyberangerMy lan is gigabit, but my WAN is a wifi network that'll vary from 90k to 1m03:30
Omnifrogstill it helps with teenager/gaming/wife/Amazon Fire/03:30
cyberangerOmnifrog having said that I bypass the GFW for fun, others play WoW, I'm very atypical03:31
OmnifrogI'm not a gamer03:31
Omnifrogmy kid is though03:31
cyberangerMe either03:31
* cyberanger wants a 10gigE lab net though03:32
Omnifrogso the bandwidth is great and all but most websites are way slower than my connection03:32
cyberangerYeah, I use split range requests at different servers to gey around that.03:35
OmnifrogI get the feeling that you are a little more tech savvy than I cyberanger03:39
cyberangerPerhaps, I've just never had an ideal home setup (at least not for long) and I will engineer around it03:42
cyberangerIf I didn't have reason/challenge in it, I'd not be this far.03:42
OmnifrogI've been using Linux since the 90's but these days I'm kind of a lazy geek03:43
Omnifrogalthough, to my credit, I did abandon KDE. WTF ARE THEY DOING???03:44
cyberangerNo idea, I went to alternating between openbox & just a tty since 200903:45
OmnifrogI need a GUI03:46
OmnifrogI'm a sloth03:46
cyberangerI use other setups, but always wind up back at openbox03:46
cyberangerIf I am just playing music & on irc it's in a terminal, but I really only turn xorg off when I am running three server VMs03:47
OmnifrogI want the comfort of a windows like environment with the benefits of OSS03:48
cyberangerSave the ram then03:48
wrstcyberanger: I have a realtek integrated in my desktop it is crummy, my server has Intel but ethtool says it is just at 100 may be the cable on further inspection03:48
cyberangerI remember once saying my desktop is built in to any linux computer, just press ctrl alt f1...still sorry wrst03:49
wrstHa03:50
cyberangerwrst intel fast Ethernet?03:50
wrst82567LM-303:51
wrstShould be gigabit but just connecting at 10003:52
wrstIf I use ethtool to force to 1000 I lose the connection03:52
OmnifrogI'm gonna put headphones on and jam out to tunes till I have to go to bed03:54
Omnifrognight guys03:54
cyberangerOmnifrog have a good one03:54
cyberangerwrst what driver is it using?03:55
wrstNight Omnifrog03:55
wrstcyberanger: have no clue :)03:55
cyberangerOkay um...03:55
wrstA little research looks like the cable could be the cause03:55
wrstUsing a 5E cable so have some cat 6 ordered03:55
wrstcyberanger: usually stuff just works in Linux so not used to trouble shooting hardware really03:56
cyberangerAh, possible, but so could a driver03:56
cyberangerLsmod03:56
wrstI think it is e1000 or something like that03:56
cyberangerOkay, that's good03:57
cyberangerGrabbed the gigabit one, not the older fast Ethernet03:57
wrstYeah e1000e03:57
wrstSo I think all is setup correctly03:58
cyberangerI know that driver is good, one of two I use in vbox (the other is virtio)03:58
wrstI was expecting this to have a realtek card so we it is integrated03:58
wrstSince it was...03:58
wrstYeah I will try a good cable then go from there, I am maxing out megabit on file transfers03:59
wrstAnd internet too which I am not used to yet03:59
cyberanger04:00
wrstHaven't actually been able to use it all working on pfsense next04:00
