asciilifeform: dulap also served e.g. the rk example image, 2.5GB, downloaded by lotsa people w/ no ill effect on pipe
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 11:59:57 diana_coman: asciilifeform: re data in any case, it's the initial incident, I didn't specifically ask them for *all requests to my server*; I asked them exactly for "attack", apparently some 8 minutes on Friday before they updated their rules and got rid of it pretty much.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941312 << regularly these aren't even attacks, just monumentally ill set up spamatrons and the like. i linked examples, dude buys "out of the box" "solution", installs on "beefiest server available", has nfi what he's doing.
asciilifeform still suspects that there wasn't even ~this~ ddos -- e.g. phuctor erry day got hrs of 1000+/reqs/sec from idjit search engines, not only pipe but even ~it~ never fell
mp_en_viaje: in fact, by this standard trilema can leisurely ddos whoever the fuck.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: no one (at least not asciilifeform) was marvelling at the magnitude of the ddos or the ingenuity of the shooter
mp_en_viaje: it's really no great philosophy to put out something like that, can prolly be done on ~free by finding say a weak pw wifi
asciilifeform: then, then, 'ispddos'.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: this was multilayer shit sandwich -- turned out the pipe was so threadbare, that even just the mini-ddos was enuff to make it ~unusable
mp_en_viaje: ie, this isn't ddos, it's ispdos.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 11:59:32 asciilifeform: unsurprising tho, ddostron likely switched to the remaining working ips, and the latech derps added them also to blackhole.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941311 << here's the problem : if every time some dork puts out 10k packets / 10 minutes the "isp" turns off an ip for a whole day, the piddly packet pissant is being amplified 24 * 6 = 144 by the "isp"
asciilifeform: asciilifeform, otoh, did the equiv of when folx w/ no medical education attempt a tracheotomy on choking patient. cuz nobody else was about to.
mp_en_viaje: eh, anyone's entitled to a day of thinking thinks through, what.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: Bingo for his part seems to be headed to lifetime of penitence in monastery or the like (tho i'd rather he grew skin like rhinoceros and fought an' won, perhaps still will)
mp_en_viaje: mix these two together, get things like we see.
mp_en_viaje: but slut never wants to delineate failure, because in part well hammered into skull that "this isn't what pleasing is" through social milieu of ~shit ; and in part because just comes naturally.
mp_en_viaje: fundamental problem with any attempt at management is that you either discuss failure, or else BECOME failure. it's inescapable.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: some amt of this is prolly not escapable in a mission like piz, which consisted largely of reconnaissance-by-fire. but yes this is likely the cardinal sin of ~erryone
mp_en_viaje: you know, something is starting to come into focus. basically, republic is very effectual slut shredder. it massively attracts this sort of pleaser, who really really wants to be good. and then... ends up with tasks. and the tasks are... well... not actually designed, but simply what needs to be done. and sooner or later but sure as you'd like, the poor slut is on [http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/drei-hacken-36-56
asciilifeform: observe the chronology; at the time of asciilifeform's expedition, management still formally consisted of mod6 & ben_vulpes.
asciilifeform: loudly. erry fart is in the logs.
asciilifeform: if i wanted 'feel better', i know where the dope dealers live.
asciilifeform: i aint in the biz to 'feel better', ftr.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: yes, but given that asciilifeform aint a gurl, it has 0 impact on operations.
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-07 08:09:11 mp_en_viaje: l things and toxicfacts. then he feels better about it, later.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 11:53:44 asciilifeform: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941253 << this, however, mistake. does not 'feel better'. asciilifeform in fact maintains a list of various where mp told him 'yer incorrigible idjit and hands grow from arse', it is quite long.
mp_en_viaje: aite, well. evidently i wasn't watching all that closely. good there's a record.
asciilifeform: because at one time he did.
mp_en_viaje: nfi why i ended up with the idea he worked for you.
ericbot: Logged on 2018-07-13 22:36:05 mircea_popescu: 2. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-02#1831375 STILL didn't get a direct answer, two weeks later. this "withdraw into busywork" reaction to uncomfortable realities may work (it doesn't work, but subjectively may seem to work) in lines typically well fit to the autistic. but as things stand here it's at least mildly insulting to BingoBoingo, that he's the dood on the ground and you're somehow looking right throguh
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2018-07-13#1834407 thrd.
mp_en_viaje: i guess i've not been paying close enough attention to this then.
ericbot: Logged on 2018-07-15 15:28:56 mod6: In other news, BingoBoingo has accepted the position as Pizarro Manager, and officially will take over in this role after the August Statement is published in the first few days of September. Congrats to BingoBoingo!
mp_en_viaje: this is new to me.
asciilifeform: asciilifeform, formally , is technical vizier, responsible for creation, maintenance, and sometimes emplacement, of irons.
mp_en_viaje: can has link to said encouragement then ?
ericbot: Logged on 2019-08-24 13:05:31 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: and remember that yer the current chairman. dun let yerself get incapacitated, asciilifeform is not expert in chairmaning , but someone has to actually fucking steer the thing, or we're sunk, irons or no irons
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: he took the job ( with encouragement of mp_en_viaje et al )
mp_en_viaje: in my book you were the boss, he worked for you.
ericbot: Logged on 2019-08-24 13:08:36 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: more like 'if colonel aint answering, major will have to act on own position w/out answer!'
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-07 08:09:06 mp_en_viaje: nor is this disease of passivity yours alone. asciilifeform is in the ~same position, at some point he became the manager of a venture ? whatevs. how and what did this alter in his life ? ~same as for the "surprised by wealth" tard, he was surprised by management, it became ~an attribute~, like alopecia, or a skin tumour. he worries about it, sometimes, especially when i say m
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 11:48:13 asciilifeform: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941252 << asciilifeform is not the manager , even if has been forced to pick up the grenade , BingoBoingo is still in that chair. and as mp aptly observes, asciilifeform is approx same grade of manager as he is violinist.
mp_en_viaje: i dunno such detection happened, dude was asked weird q, sent over a capture, "closest item to what you ask for". at least was my read.
asciilifeform: ^ entirely tru. but whothefuq even does ddos for ~anyone~ with 8 ? and how would these even be detectable as ddoslike.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 11:41:27 asciilifeform: and holyfuq, just 8 ?!!! and the fucking orcs put ~destination~ in blackhole, and not the 8 sources?!!!
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941292 << the 8 were hers not yours tho.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: plox to eat that 1stpass. nuffing's available.
mp_en_viaje: by now the pile of fucked things is pretty consistent.
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-07 06:32:48 diana_coman: upon asking my moldavian ISP for the data re attack on my server, they sent over a .pcap file + a .pdf file with an analysis; it says max 1.5Gbits/s on Oct 4th; the whole thing seems to be coming in from 8 IPs; I still have to look at the .pdap in detail
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 11:40:34 asciilifeform: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941224 << can i persuade diana_coman to share that pcap ? dulap ended up unplugged just before i could set up tcpdump on it .
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-07#1941290 << she was gonna, but then... SHE DIDNT HAVE WHERE
asciilifeform: ty again mp_en_viaje , needed 1 of these .
mp_en_viaje: im doin' just that.
asciilifeform: logger aint the only thing that's dead.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i rec to eat log ( via diana_coman or lobbes ) in 1stpass
BingoBoingo: I want blood. You want blood. It's time to find some vampires to expedite the harvest. Morcilla is on the menu.
BingoBoingo: doors with the same pitch.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: About to head out the door. Orders have been issued to the Venezolanas to probe their networks for independent abogado/as with a manner uncommonly agressive for Uruguay with time to dedicate to a case pursuing maximum damages under the comemrcial and criminal codes for selling a faulty product advertised as first class for which just under 3000 USD a month has been paid the past 21 months. Going now to knock on a few
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I am going to be headed in the datacenter direction. Will make sure nothing's on fire and rescue those irreplaceables.
asciilifeform: get the sealed FG stockpile outta there, and into somewhere well-hidden.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo 1 moar thing :
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Aite. I'm going to give my mind digest and re-read time and then head out to knock on a couple doors to see who is hungry.
asciilifeform: trinque, mod6 , i think are the remaining. ^
asciilifeform: asciilifeform does not have anyffin personally owned in the cage. there is snsa iron, mp will be who decides when to evacuate. others -- themselves, ditto.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 1st we hear from mp ; then to start taking reqs for evacuations.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Then we recoup value for yourself and mod6 from which to sprinboard next thing.
BingoBoingo: All of them doing TCP SYN without getting my dumps requested in person ours ago.
asciilifeform: unless they somehow find money in sofa cushion to settle
BingoBoingo: Especially when diana_coman's moldavian ISP offered .pcap showing 8 IPs while Oscar said thousands.
asciilifeform: there is no moar avoiding of the law office an' the court, BingoBoingo
BingoBoingo: I am too dumbfounded by what I heard today to believe any hard won minutes of uptime is going to be more revealing than working to begin litigation and forcing them to divulge in court.
asciilifeform: ( after he's done w/ the current session of 'both of you have arse for a head and i oughta have thrown you into sea like two-headed kittens long ago' but expect will have what to add )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Last night the machines were cool and accessible locally on the switch. Today they are probably still hot and angry.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: aite. watch for mp waking up, i expect he'll have what to add to this .
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: wasn't suggesting this as a long-term connectivity. but atm we even lack means of seeing wtf is happening in the cage.
BingoBoingo: I would like to spend the rest of this afternoon productively setting up lawyer auditions with my copy of the contract and the local Código de Commercio
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: They run fiber to the DC, but radio is what they provide to consumers and small businesses in remote areas.
asciilifeform: i was able to get '3g' gsm in that bunker.
asciilifeform: hm BingoBoingo what does that radio pipe cost ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: They are, they are not sharing information in line with the industry standards they are expected to perform to, and we need to extract compensation from them from which to build euro-ISP or whatever.
asciilifeform: they're in breach of the contract BingoBoingo . elementarily. we've been paying for pipe, and aint getting no piping !!
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: At this point, based on the previous conversation, there seems to be in no person at Latecho or Dedicado who can get us pipe. I am inclined to begin auditioning commercial litigation folk this afternoon.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: didja ask , btw, that monkey, who said 'month', what we are expected to do for 'month' ? suck thumbs ?
asciilifeform: atm we dun have a working isp, BingoBoingo . we MAYBE will have with what to build one, if the culprits are made to pay.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: understand that waiting will accomplish nothing. even supposing the mario & luigi derps come back and 'we fixed pipe, promise it won't happen again' it WILL happen again. week, month, year, later, and whole story will repeat.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: let'em file. BingoBoingo will be in the courthouse with the other creditors.
asciilifeform: well atm the fucker thinks he is stomping a defenseless insect. important to convey that he is mistaken.
BingoBoingo: Warning with which they could use to rush their probably inevitable bankruptcy filing
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I do not know how wise it is to tip the litigation hand and giving them warning.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: well mp's giving a meat violin concerto or the like atm. and time is of the essence. so i will say, chairman 1st, for so long as BingoBoingo knows the obvious thing to say (i.e. pointedly NOT 'pleez dear sir can haz pipe back' but instead 'this is about the continued solvency of your company, the next conversation will involve barrister, now let's have working pipe, guarantees, and compensation' )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I suspect mp may have something useful to weight in with respect to knocking on chairman's door with contract first, or knocking on chairman's door with service papers first.
BingoBoingo: married with respect to Pizarro. Yes I can see my approach as defective. I may need to do remedial work in Diana's schoolhouse.
a111: Logged on 2019-10-07 08:12 mp_en_viaje: you're going to be the guy who went to uruguay to establish republican isp who instead started subsistence farming ? the man from the future turned into the dead of the past ?! become a fucking guarani now ?!
BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-10-07#1941319 << I didn't manage to find the Trilema I wanted to link on that point. In the line I wanted to link you said something to the point of "raise rabbits, or do anything", I intend to litigate the Latecho issue, get more involved in National Party politics, etc. I wanted to honestly capture the despair my failure wrought on myself for myself and to read myself. And I feel less pregnant and more ☝︎
asciilifeform: ianal but even in fucking ru this is open&shut case
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: target can be in hiding all he likes, if he continues when the papers are served, we get default judgement neh.
BingoBoingo: Before I get rolling on that I do want to address something up log.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I am ready to get rolling on 2-3. I suspect the target of 1 is in hiding. The contract was on the table as we discussed at the coffee shop. They looked at it and apeared to recognize what it was. I did not reference it or its text, but it was visible.
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-07 15:13:29 diana_coman: so they should get out of that "meeting" and talk already; you've been waiting *since Friday* for them to "talk to me", don't take anymore waiting because you really don't have much time left for waiting
