It's going to need integrals." 00:47 <@Evilpig> I'm tryign to diagnose what's up with this connection i'm on 00:48 <@Evilpig> trying to do an rsync. it started at 250KB/s and rapidly dropped to 3Kb/s or less 00:49 <@Evilpig> hrmmmm..... 00:49 <@Evilpig> RX packets:987033 errors:0 dropped:78361 overruns:0 frame:0 00:49 <@Evilpig> TX packets:566713 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 00:49 <@Evilpig> now that is definitely odd 01:19 <@Catonic> lmfao 01:20 <@Catonic> 10GB of BMPs. one 2.4GB PDF. 01:20 <@Catonic> 600 DPIs. 01:20 <@Evilpig> System uptime: 0 days 12 hours 44 minutes and 49 seconds <-- that pisses me off 01:20 <@Catonic> Evilpig: you've got something that's causing you interrupt trouble. 01:20 <@Evilpig> Apparently I am gonna have to mail a sign to this guy's office to attach to the server that reads "DO NOT TURN OFF" 01:20 <@Catonic> oh that thing in the corner? It's noisy. 01:22 <@Evilpig> it really doesn't help me troubleshoot this that it is blocking pings either 01:23 <@Catonic> so ping it with something else 01:23 <@Catonic> nmap 01:24 <@Evilpig> no ports open to attach 01:24 <@Evilpig> just 80 and 22. 01:28 <@Catonic> udp? 01:28 <@Evilpig> all blocked 01:30 <@Catonic> so, one of the locals had his 5-month old dog shot to death in his backyard, two feet from the fence gate. 01:30 <@Evilpig> wtf 01:32 <@Evilpig> if this was a failing NIC it would be dropping TX packets as well as RX right? 01:35 <@Catonic> not exactly 01:36 <@Catonic> TX you hand off the data to the card and it sends it out the ring-buffer and into never-never land 01:36 <@Catonic> RX you have no fucking clue what is going on except, HEY, CLEAR THE DESK, WE GOT CARRIER! 01:45 <@Evilpig> just verified that iptables isn't responsible for the packet drops 01:50 <@Catonic> yeah, it's counters are elsewhere 01:50 <@Catonic> could be CRC or MTU 01:51 <@Evilpig> I just checked it's rules and the coutners there aren't climbing so that isn't the issue. could be a failing nic, could be a switch problem, could be down the line 01:51 <@Catonic> the ethernet card may be throwing away frames that make no sense to it. 01:51 <@Catonic> even simpler: check your duplex 01:52 <@Catonic> we went through that earlier today. "Hey, I'm getting 500KB/s or less across the DC when I should be getting 11MB/s." "Let me check the port..." 01:52 <@Catonic> switch was showing two incrementing counters of errors 01:52 <@Catonic> server was set to autoneg gigabit, switch port set to 100Mb/FD 01:53 <@Catonic> thrawp it on the head the right way, 11MB/s again. 01:53 <@Evilpig> that'd do it 02:33 -!- rangerz1 [~mwalker@c-98-211-44-193.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 02:43 <@Bahhumbug> Why was the dog shot? 02:58 <@Catonic> goddamn tarded techno 02:58 <@Catonic> Bahhumbug: apparently he got loose is all I can get out of the owner 02:59 <@Catonic> ballistics was already tearing up the backyard looking for casings and bullets 02:59 <@Catonic> for unexplained reasons they also almost extinguished two stray cats as well 03:05 <@Bahhumbug> wtf? 03:14 -!- GateKeeper [~gatekeepr@unaffiliated/gerdesas/bot/jrd-bots] has quit [Disconnected by services] 03:14 -!- GateKeeper [~gatekeepr@unaffiliated/gerdesas/bot/jrd-bots] has joined #se2600 03:16 -!- csamuelson [~Rious@ec2-50-17-240-121.compute-1.amazonaws.com] has joined #se2600 03:16 -!- timoguin_ [~tim@c-76-18-137-130.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 03:21 -!- Netsplit *.net <-> *.split quits: @timoguin, Rious 03:21 -!- csamuelson is now known as Rious 04:10 <@Catonic> yeah, it was a wtf'er. 04:10 <@Catonic> this is why I don't want to own a pet here... 04:11 <@Catonic> animal control won't do anything unless it's a dog or a cat (literally, you got three racoons fighting on the porch? Call the police.) 04:11 <@Catonic> somehow the police can get away with discharging a firearm at a wild animal but if you do it, you're going to JAIL. 04:12 * Bahhumbug nods 04:12 <@Bahhumbug> stupid laws 05:07 <@Catonic> laws apply to cops too 05:07 <@Catonic> problem is that even if you swear out a warrant, you can't stop the DA from null-prossing the case 05:15 <@Catonic> son of a bitch 05:15 <@Catonic> 600 dpi... 1 bit per pixel 05:15 <@Catonic> 10,200 x 6,600 pixels... 8,415,000 bytes 05:17 <@Catonic> but it stores as 410KB 05:19 <@Catonic> CCITT Fax Group 4 is a great way to save space. 05:19 <@Catonic> unforch with the 2.4GB PDF, I didn't get that option because the paper had yellowed a lot 05:19 <@Catonic> so I captured it once at 600dpi so I can post-process it as necessary 07:19 <@Evilpig> the mystery of the bad packets has been solved 07:19 <@Evilpig> "We have a switch failing. I just replaced it about 5 minutes ago with a cheap little Linksys until I can procure a new 48 port gigabit switch.

<@Evilpig> auto texture packs 09:08 <@Evilpig> started? merging multiplayer and single? 09:09 <@Evilpig> the hardcore setting is kinda funny 09:11 <@Dagmar> I dont' think it deletes the map, just bans the player 09:12 <@Dagmar> I must know tho'... 09:12 <@Dagmar> texture-pack=file:///c:\aux 09:16 <@Evilpig> I would assume if you set it to a local path it would try to pull from the server's local path. but that would be the smart way to proxy it, they could have just slapped it in as a general get request 09:22 <@Dagmar> It seems like accepting this once makes it permanently enabled for that server 09:42 <@Dagmar> Its' just a general get request 09:42 <@Evilpig> they should proxy that bitch. people be stupid 09:43 <@Dagmar> Yeah I'm not even worrying about the all.net type scenario tho

isn't just Mojang 09:49 <@Dagmar> Once a language has exceptions, I'm pretty sure it's use causes brain damage. 09:49 <@Dagmar> If you mention checking the result of a function call, all the programmers can do is talk about how you shouldn't need to with exceptions. 09:50 <@Dagmar> Clearly it's a stride forward to have all those failure conditions in one place, out of the way, so they can be ignored properly. 09:52 < eryc> idk 09:52 < eryc> exceptions are a lot more useful that a single return type 09:53 <@Dagmar> eryc: I can see it's already gotten you 09:53 <@Dagmar> Nevermind that I'm talking about the fails that happen when you ignore what the outcome of the call was... you're talking about how much better they are 09:54 <@Dagmar> ...which completely doesn't matter when they become a mechanism for formally ignoring things going wrong. 09:54 -!- rangerz1 [~mwalker@DHCP-129-59-140-98.n1.vanderbilt.edu] has joined #se2600 09:55 <@Dagmar> At least with a structure like unless(call()) { die "fuck you."} you can see right there it's being handled 09:56 <@Dagmar> Benadryl fairy is now dragging me down into darkness 09:57 < eryc> i guess 09:58 < eryc> its easy to ignore a function's return value 09:58 <@Dagmar> Easier still apparently when using exceptions 09:58 < eryc> you're arguing that people are more likely to use unless() than they are catch() 09:58 <@Dagmar> Im arguing that it's more likely they can see that they didn't use either 09:59 <@Dagmar> Speech input is working hard today 10:00 <@Dagmar> it even works standing on my head 10:44 < rangerz1> Dagmar:
