lobbes: in other news, yesterday afternoon my right eyelid inexplicably became very swollen. Woke up today and it is even worse. Slightly concerning; may need to seek doctor. Made log reading
a challenge this morning at any rate
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-07 06:37:31 mp_en_viaje: lobbes, when is it you'll need
a server to sit down orchestra on ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: The freezone office is door, behind
a couple doors I don't have keys too
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: Someone is in
a meeting/wants to talk to me
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Phone call this morning, waiting on
a call back
diana_coman: asciilifeform: tbh that's the mind-boggling thing ie what exactly are/were latech doing; and I'd say BingoBoingo_ goes there with
a flamethrower and doesn't leave until he finds out.

mp_en_viaje: i've over the years reviewed
a lot of widely distant grant proposals and then deliveries on those proposals ; but shaw's play here discussed is by very far the most disjunct. i feel defrauded.
mp_en_viaje: and then, inverosimilously, his housekeeper, who memorized 3*6 and 3*8 as such, as pure symbols, "why 2 schillings and not 9 glubghsh?" does not know 21. because what the fuck, she's only been doing this for decades and it just didn't stick in her mind. she's
a 6yo 50yo very respecable moron.
mp_en_viaje: fucking hogwash, of "
a rake's progress" and "marriage
a la mode" fame.
mp_en_viaje: as
a factual matter, george fox was an offensive good for nothing know it all whose memory is not wort hpissing on.
mp_en_viaje: oedipus rex is nothing else and naught besides "what if jocasta met oedipus". that they coincidentally did meet, whereas newton and charles coincidentally didn't meet is irrelevant. it's the lot of the greeks to only write
a bout encounters that took place, through lack of correct numeration system to permit them egress from their simple naivity. but we have better representation systems, so we can write better thestre.
mp_en_viaje: then he moves on to point out that the only source of interest is... encounters. meeting. "what if newton knew charles ?" is the mother of all theatre. i can see this, it makes perfect sense, and it's the exact sort of stroke of utter genius that makes shaw have
a name in the first place.
mp_en_viaje: which yes, liberates threatre itself from the directly munane requirements of the trade in meats. if you want to get
a better price for the prize heifer you raised, get her
a "leaked tape", don't try and put her in
a play. alright, all good.
mp_en_viaje: it is, i'm with him. there;s also no need to keep pretending "new titles" for porn films. you need... i dunno, mAAAAybe
a few dozen,
pre-given and fixed forever ; then keep re-shooting them ~as such~ every time there's
a new cunt comes off the highschool benches juicy enough to justify the effort.
mp_en_viaje: i can follow along with the man, "hey, restoration comedy as
a vehicle for the trade in meats, yet another-eth attempt at selling whatever young cunt's hips, thigs, waist and tits under the flimsy pretext & distraction of "being" moll whatever is outstandingly uninteresting
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 ?!
☟︎ mp_en_viaje: it's not
a fucking skill, surviving through ad-hocisms is not manly. it's the exact equivalent of becoming
a transvestite, except not bothering with the exterior aspect of the matter,
a woman trapped in
a man's body slightly differently than the twinks.
mp_en_viaje: is this some kind of failure worship, you get
a scholarship to go to university, do not meaningfully show up to any class, then when they come to evict you from your dorm room you "figure out
a way" to hang
a rainproof sheet from the fire hydrant, "make yourself
a shelter", "hey, it's
a skill also" ?
mp_en_viaje: if you don't study and practice to be
a manager, you will never be one, except in contexts such as "
a disappointing manager". if you don't study and practice to be
a dc tech, you will never be one either. nothing you will be, unless you study and practice that thing, and these are not idle words, they're day after day and hour after hour ~actual~ activity.
mp_en_viaje: he's studied ~nothing, he's changed to no degree, he's just waiting for it to come out of his fucking birth canal already so his ankles unswell and he can walk without

mp_en_viaje: there's ten thousand details, just like that, and you can eat or try to eat or byte or whatever
a few each day, and more each week, and then week after week after week you eat the whole thing. this is how the world was built, because no part of it was yet borne by woman, all was built, by men, laying brick on brick and rivet on rail and each and every part individually without exception all the way from the bottom to the ver
mp_en_viaje: w it with the threads of connectivity, because you're not fit to be
a citizen of the 1950s when they put the man on the moon and i belong, i firmly and substantially belong in the 2000s, when we have undersea cables" ?
mp_en_viaje: did you spend your time poring over "how does networking work ?" "what is connectivity ?" how many dc maps did you review, how many dc people did you talk to and what about, did you bother to learn the global connectivity map by heart, just as
a fuckyou to the darkness, "look, i can trace all the main lines people spent millions / meter to even lay in the first place, you can't even draw the fucking planisphere and i can dra
mp_en_viaje: if tomorrow republic declared you
a gunsmith, would you put up
a shingle reading TMSR Gunsmith and then sit indoors in the dark until kicked out ?
meditating, maybe ?
mp_en_viaje: are you pregnant with pizarro, is that the idea ? it's not gonna happen by itself, you know, it has to be ~made~. built, like
a thing, product of ~man~'s industry, out of all the parts, individually, each made correctly and exact, all put together as is proper. interesting things are never born, they're always ~made~.
mp_en_viaje: the days seem to pass like for women, as if the passage itself is
a gain alone, as if some kind of implicitly valuable thing is growing in your viscera by itself, in the dark, unknown and incomprehensible, allthewhile all you have to do is keep stuffing food down one end of
a digestive tube and evacuate out the other at regular enough intervals -- mariahilf will provide for the rest, for all the rest.
mp_en_viaje: you're, for the experience, not now an experienced, seasoned dc technician. i was waiting for the word "pcap" to come out of you, as
a token show of even having
a clue what the fuck this all is -- zilch.

a fucking month ALREADY i'd rather not have it waited, especially indefinitely.
mp_en_viaje: the terseness is
a restrospectively evident winning principle ; and your handling of the labels-and-references indirection layers just fine.

mp_en_viaje: i can say definitely that outside of ancient newspapers of very narrow scholarly interest
eg and REALLY old versions of europapers (
eg) nothing reads even remotely as well as qntra.
☝︎ mp_en_viaje: "the body of work I have written for Qntra" << it is pretty fucking good. i usually read it as it comes out ; but it IS news, so i also read it
like i read news, six months to
a year+ later.
mp_en_viaje: lobbes, when is it you'll need
a server to sit down orchestra on ?
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, honestly i ddin't want to use them because moldavia right next to ru geograpically, but i guess they're making it strictly impossible not to. i will have to sit down lobbes' thing somewhere as per our contract, and considering it's been

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
mp_en_viaje: throw in
a belgrade or w/e i fit gets boring.
lobbes: guess I can't think of
a reason why I would, tbh. Really all I need is an income with what to feed myself.
mp_en_viaje: nevertheless, i think it well evinces the "normal traffic" vs "wanna-be retard" disctintion. now what if i were to take ever single graph-obvious ding as
a ddos ?! i mean, count them, there's dozens just today -- again,
a ~very slow~ day as these go
mp_en_viaje: this is
a very slow day as far as these go ; notwithstanding i just publisjhed
a massive, 300 pic, 30mb article yesterday. "ddos" has ~no connection in observed practice to any such practical details, it'll happen whenever some moron / machine gets an erection, not when "you did this or that".
mp_en_viaje: similarily, the routes they (latechco) advertise are discrete at the c-block level, meaning pizarro's allocation is ONE WHOLE ITEM, not
a fraction.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-06 14:43:59 BingoBoingo: It is appearing that is the case. It seems Latecho is creating our pipe by using
a router that splits our bandwith from
a bigger Antel pipe coming into Latecho. Rather than having acquired
a line for the purpose of serving us, it appears from this crisis and their reaction that they simply contracted more bandwidth to
a pipe they already had.
mp_en_viaje:
http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-06#1940903 << this is dubious. no actual data to go on but the generals : there's obviousl;y ganged multi-gb megaswitches available, in actual places where actual transit happens. say frankfurt. i doubt obscure antel of nowhereland has ZERO 100mb lines, and thus in order to get 200mb you have to cut down
a 1gb line. seems rather the 100mb is made by welding two 100mb lines togeth
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: Not if you are using the qntra name servers instead of
a host file to resolve
mp_en_viaje: ie, if you had
a healthy customer base built in the intervening peacetime, this wouldn't even be much of
a problem, per se. and if you don't build same, nothing else will be any kind of solution, no matter what it is, up to and including god's own hand coming down from heavens above holding
a shimmering rjack finished in pure samite.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-06 14:16:09 asciilifeform: asciilifeform does not expect that anyone will want to ask for his advice re how to do
a 2nd isp, if we cede this stalingrad.

a whole lotta python nao ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-06 13:13:18 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: do you imagine that folx will subscribe to
a 'you might have to flip your ip erry 4hrs' isp ?
BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: DDoS was
a thing before Cloudflare, but I don't recall random i.e. without explicit demand DDoS being
a thing until Cloudflare came around.
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, understand, pre-distributed clients connect to specified ip. there's no easy way to change the ip, as it lives in
a config file on player side.
mp_en_viaje: yeah, it's not in principle possible to run
a game server "with secret ip". moreover, all domain names always resolve to an ip as well, the whole "cloak" bs is ... well, you know.
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-06 19:25:34 mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, what's wrong with "i will absolutely need
a proper packet capture here, the colorful graphs and choice epithets don't help. can you send the relevant .pcap files over please"
diana_coman: I wanted to say that I read
a bit around the shlex python thing too but I never used it before so still unsure re direct fix
ericbot: Logged on 2019-10-06 18:42:28 BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: From what I can see it looks like they went ahead and blackholed
a portion of the IP space. half the rockchips, dulap, and another IP

ossabot: Logged on 2019-08-30 14:20:19 asciilifeform: piz has
a 200Mb pipe, and on some days it is quite crowded.
BingoBoingo: ? sucediendo." << Is this the sort of response I should send before scheduling
a sit down?
BingoBoingo: "Can I get
a packet dump from at least one of the floods before sitting down and discussing options for moving forward. The graphs seem to show when activity is happening, but they lack information that could be used to put together
a mitigation strategy. Is the incoming traffic UDP, TCP, ICMP, etc? Is there any information that suggests an origin or origins. Hay una falta de información forense que pueda ayudar
a evaluar lo que est?
mp_en_viaje: by all appearances,
a waiter could do just as well in his job.
mp_en_viaje: the
7007245 hits for 24 days of june (2016!) ~averages~ to almost 300k
a day, meaning it peaks above that, meaning etcetera. ima stop quoting these, but the idea is : i can't even currently guess whether your contact deems 1 connection/second
a ddos. maybe it does, nfi, no way to tell from those derpy graphs. is it 10 ? 100 ? dude has no fucking idea either
mp_en_viaje: but the overarching point :
a certain amount of toy "ddos" is ~GUARANTEED~. carries no meaning, attaches to no identity, has nothing to do with you in any way. it's like "
a certain level of hardship is guaranteed outdoors", unfucking avoidable.
mp_en_viaje:
http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-06#1940843 << it's very difficult to evaluate key metrics because of the extrmely poor quality of available data.
a certain amt of "ddos" is ~extremely~ common, and in no way or manner related to anything or to any degree intentional. i periodically published on trilema lists of what'd qualify as "ddos" by 1999 standards say. let me fish some out, why not.
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, did you ever get
a packet dump btw ?
BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: From what I can see it looks like they went ahead and blackholed
a portion of the IP space. half the rockchips, dulap, and another IP
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-06 15:13:21 mp_en_viaje: as it turns out, it's
a hollow spec, entirely holy water dousing. the orcs are just as pantsuit as the zeks, they're just too stupid to express it in specific forms, but otherwise will pantsuit reliably anyways.
ossabot: Logged on 2016-03-31 18:48:02 gernika: asciilifeform: fyi I made
a trip to eetools HQ today and came back home with
a curiosity: EmMax plus rom emulator - connects to LPT port - comes with console app. It does *not* however appear to support dos - win95 is as far back as it goes it seems.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: thimbronion is in line for
a rockchip. First contact was as gernika where he killed his GPG key by signing "I agree"
mp_en_viaje: exact same for
a putative bitcoin foundation, together with
a "count of donated bitcoins from the wider community"
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i don't know why you keep saying that. sales is neither an optional nor
a coinditional part of business.
mp_en_viaje: then took about
a year for you folk to unconvincingly maneuver in the general direction of maybe any day now imminently starting
a sales process
mp_en_viaje: mod6 + benvulpes bought it iirc, and they did ~same for
a while, then eventually you reorganized it as
a venture that's specifically not to include my say lest i wreck it, which incidentally i've respected to date, notwithstandin gall sorts of incidental ineptitudes baked in all through.
