| sarnold | ravage: is it a country mirror or just listed as "just a mirror"? | 00:18 |

| IshSookun | ravage, we have a latency of about 80 - 90 ms to ubuntu.dts.mg. | 05:08 |
| IshSookun | With the server I have obtained, the latency will be lowered to 8 ms. | 05:08 |
| IshSookun | Question: is it possible to use ubumirror and specify which dist archive to sync? e.g if we want to sync only the LTS versions, is that possible with ubumirror? | 05:31 |
| blahdeblah | asomerset: Out of curiosity, where is mirror.liquidtelecom.com physically? My path to it from this part of the world is hilaribad: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/hQZkZfHhh3/ | 05:55 |
| asomerset | its kenya | 05:58 |
| blahdeblah | If anyone from here tried to fly to Kenya via Los Angeles, San Jose, New York, and London, we would tell them they were crazy, but on the Internet... :-D | 06:01 |

| ravage | sarnold, it is listed as the only mirror for Madagascar at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors | 07:35 |
| ravage | and "up do date" is questionable without jammy i think :D | 07:35 |
| ravage | *to | 07:35 |
| asomerset | wow now i am curious! | 07:40 |
| hloeung | blahdeblah, World Wide Web... | 10:57 |
| asomerset | i just looked at the actual trace now - v4 suggests you taking the "long way round.... go east until you get there instead of come west instead | 11:00 |
| sarnold | the earth is spinning through the aether in an easterly direction, so if you send the packets east also, they'll fly through the aether that much more quickly! :D | 16:49 |
| sarnold | ravage: ah, that's fine -- it *is* in madagascar, and it might save transit costs etc for someone; it's not serving as mg.archive.ubuntu.com, those are handled by the Usual Servers https://termbin.com/n80g -- so that server will only be used by someone who configures it, and hopefully they'll know why they configured it that way | 16:52 |
| ravage | ok. so that up to date flag just looks nice but has no meaning? :) | 16:53 |
| sarnold | "up to date on the things it's chosen to mirror" is a sane enough thing; I've heard there's issues with the freshness checks, that's perhaps a separate issue :) | 17:16 |
| blahdeblah | hloeung: traceroute is layer 3, therefore: Internet. (OK, maybe 3.5, depending on how you classify ICMP, but definitely not World Wide Web. :-) | 22:26 |
| sarnold | it's on the web now! https://dnschecker.org/online-traceroute.php | 22:33 |
| * sarnold runs | 22:33 | |
