| luna_ | britts don't seem to belive in native IPv6 | 15:00 |
|---|---|---|
| daftykins | i still see no benefit for the time being :) don't even mind my ISP doesn't support it | 16:17 |
| daftykins | i haven't even contacted my friend in Exeter's ISP to ask them to enable IPv6 on his service either | 16:17 |
| zxmpi | it'll happen when it happens. that'll happen when it needs to happen | 16:18 |
| daftykins | just been up to one of my clients where, following a UPS shutdown after a staff member turned off the switch beside the socket saying "DO NOT TURN OFF" the WiFi AP, powered by PoE, has not worked since | 16:19 |
| daftykins | check out this spontaneous discovery - https://youtu.be/jn_sBkNVaNY | 16:20 |
| daftykins | or rather this discovery of a spontaneous change :) | 16:20 |
| zxmpi | i'm sure i've told you of the accountancy firm that had my bosss there for a week prior to the year end run and they set it running friday evening and he left. the md walking around and hour or two later turned off the pc that was doing the year end pulling off the label glued taped across the power switch 'do not turn off' | 16:22 |
| zxmpi | to find the backups had been done since sharon went on maternity leave | 16:23 |
| daftykins | :D | 16:24 |
| daftykins | (+not) ? | 16:24 |
| zxmpi | *not been done | 16:24 |
| daftykins | that's such a typical Sharon move | 16:24 |
| daftykins | have a baby to get out of doing backups /s | 16:24 |
| zxmpi | most expensive attempt to save a few bob on leccy | 16:24 |
| daftykins | :D | 16:24 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: Suspicious that the cat6 short turns up at the same time they turn the UPS off | 16:24 |
| daftykins | yeah ikr, i mean it is a PoE AP, so power was dramatically cut to the switch... but i dunno, it felt kinda tacky or moist up there | 16:25 |
| zxmpi | well md said show sharon how to do backups. no one thought to wonder how she'd do that at home when she left | 16:25 |
| daftykins | there was also a container of floor/carpet adhesive that had leaked and a small trail approached the hole in the loft floor that the AP cable uses | 16:26 |
| zxmpi | so packets are stuck in transit? :-P | 16:26 |
| daftykins | xD | 16:26 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: Someone put a carpet tack through your cable? | 16:26 |
| daftykins | it was fascinating, i could see on the switch that it powered up - just zero network link | 16:27 |
| daftykins | nah the loft was bare, i just saw it stored up there | 16:27 |
| daftykins | sec i have a snap for funsies 'cause i did the most ghetto improvement to the cable module xD | 16:27 |
| daftykins | worky? https://i.imgur.com/K6TtJhz.jpeg | 16:29 |
| penguin42 | yeh | 16:30 |
| daftykins | little drainpipe piece was lying around up there so i thought... that'll do, pig! | 16:31 |
| * zxmpi gets out a blank bingo card and writes 'someone is going to go up into the loft and put their foot in that hole.' | 16:32 | |
| daftykins | :D | 16:33 |
| daftykins | it's ok the client likes his DIY and did it, i'll be immune from liability | 16:33 |
| zxmpi | your cable tripped him so he stumbled into the hole | 16:33 |
