00:01:18<fireonlive>oooops
00:03:09<@JAA>Turns out the test is also pretty useless: https://github.com/cloudflare/isbgpsafeyet.com/issues/684
00:03:35<@JAA>Or rather, if it returns success, you can't be sure that *your* ISP implements it correctly, I guess.
00:03:42<@JAA>Might be further upstream.

00:11:16<nstrom|m>nope
00:11:35<fireonlive>rip
00:13:34<@JAA>rPKI reminds me of duct tape.
00:14:05<fireonlive>some are staunchly against it
00:14:07<@JAA>Duct tape that's red and says 'secure' on it.
00:14:14<fireonlive>call it the DNSSEC of BGP
00:14:55<fireonlive>or ceding control of their IP space to the RIRs etc
00:16:19<@JAA>I'm not really familiar with either, but ... it does seem kind of like DNSSEC for BGP?
00:16:53<fireonlive>it basically is i believe
00:17:11<fireonlive>idk how much more useful, though
00:18:50<fireonlive>DNSSEC is a whole other can of worms :D
00:19:04<@JAA>Yeah
00:19:20<fireonlive>so much rabble on every side and 'what about privacy too'
00:19:45<@JAA>And every time I read about these kind of things, I'm amazed that the internet still works at all.
00:20:00<fireonlive>yeah.. the key signing ceremony at ICANN is something
00:20:30<fireonlive>i haven't followed it in a long time but passively came across something that one of the safes malfunctioned or something so they had to get a locksmith into the secure area to drill it out?
00:20:36<fireonlive>something like that
00:21:01<jasonswohl>nstrom|m btw, i dropped to 500/500 from 750/* and static ip on fri whenever i mentioned that..... apparently plex is still hypothetically acceptable with CGnat, but i've noticed myself in the past couple days that things seem "different" i'll let you know if you so choose once that is implemented
00:21:36<fireonlive>and you'll have v6!
00:21:46<fireonlive>just one static v4 i assume eh?
00:21:57<jasonswohl>JAA fireonlive i've heard/read a thing/two over the years about BGP shenanigans and its scary....
00:22:20<fireonlive>'oops i accidentally all the routes'
00:22:46<jasonswohl>yeah, pretty much
00:22:49<jasonswohl>also
00:22:58<@JAA>ECH/ESNI still isn't a thing. :-|
00:23:17<@JAA>I thought it'd have made some progress over the past few years, but nope.
00:23:24<fireonlive>won't someone think about the poor middleboxes 😭
00:23:41<jasonswohl>for an amount of time, 7ish years ago, i tried to get VERY familiar with IPv6 things and i know some things, but compared to v4, i have no fucking clue how to do homelab stuff
00:23:42<@JAA>OpenSSL doesn't support it, Firefox has it disabled by an about:config option, Chromium apparently as well.
00:23:43<fireonlive>see: TLSv1.3's fuckery lol
00:24:39<fireonlive>'so a lot of "security bullshit boxes management buys" requires stuff on 443 to look like this so TLSv1.3 is going to structure things like...'
00:25:47<@JAA>Oh yeah
00:25:53<nstrom|m>jasonswohl: sounds good, ty
00:26:10<jasonswohl>man.......... ^^^ like i know at "some point" its going to be importante but.......... sounds like for the most part, kind of a PIA
00:27:16<fireonlive>https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8446 has a lot of 'middlebox' references in i
00:27:17<fireonlive>t
00:27:45<fireonlive>"Unfortunately, some middleboxes fail when presented with new values. In TLS 1.3, the TLS server indicates its version using the supported_versions" extension (Section 4.2.1), and the legacy_version field MUST be set to 0x0303, which is the version number for TLS 1.2"
00:28:10<nicolas17>there's also something they call GREASE now
00:28:13<nicolas17>in TLS and in QUIC
00:28:38<nicolas17>where clients can add random no-op extensions to ensure servers and middleboxes are properly ignoring unknown extensions
00:29:00<fireonlive>there's also a optional compat mode: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8446#appendix-D.4
00:29:05<nicolas17>and people can notice the brokenness *before* they are used for serious purposes
00:29:09<fireonlive>indeed! love me some grease

00:52:42<BPCZ>There's nothing quite like telling the consultant assigned to you "I would like to install tomcat" and getting back "tomcat isn't supported under rhel8 we can extend your contract to support jboss and extend service to migrate your tomcat apps to jboss"
00:54:12<fireonlive>holy crap
00:54:25<fireonlive>that's some consultant spend there...
00:54:41<@JAA>Yeah, that's about what I'd expect from that kind of situation.
00:55:10<fireonlive>enterpriseâ„¢ is a fun beast
00:55:20<fireonlive>very fucking entitled too it seem
00:55:21<fireonlive>s
00:55:29<BPCZ>I mean we mostly just ignored our consultant aside from asking him to mock up a plan for rolling out a 1000 node clevis and tang setup and he was piiiised about that because officially it was only validated with like 16 nodes
00:56:25<fireonlive>haha
00:57:43<BPCZ>I wasn't in the fucked team... the fucked team was using a site evaluation key of <europeans enterprise linux distro> and was being force migrated to rhel7/relh8 when they got a bill for the full cost of many tens of thousands of licenses of the old distro.

01:09:04<BPCZ>recently had to get on a call with Azure about doing a 1EB single namespace posix system and the initially proposed solution was effectively "we would like to use 10,000 servers to do this, we also need to stop the world for 2-ish hours a month to patch"
01:09:11<BPCZ>couldn't hold back laughing at that
01:11:01<fireonlive>there was an plugin/graft on top of openai /chatgpt/something where you gave it a goal and cloud resources and fed it back outputs and it just kept grinding until the goal was met
01:11:24<fireonlive>oh lord lol
01:11:29<nicolas17>ew
01:11:31<BPCZ>we then showed them a mockup of seamless patching using the same primitives they wanted to use and they attempted to hire the guy that gave the presentation

01:14:27<fireonlive>8PB in google drive no worries
01:15:02<flashfire42>It wasnt the content of the websites that were illegal it was the fact he had 1 hosted on the camera of a school gymnasium that was for some reason connected to the internet and completely unlocked for anyone to access and another one was on a traffic control camera

I think the lower bound estimate is 3EiB of hot data + 2EiB of tape is being requested but we're trying to work out a method for even getting the netspeed to allow that let alone the datacenter space for like 3x the secondary systems and the like 5x in support systems that would be needed

01:23:17<fireonlive>a friend has a domain that really only means something to them, squatter has had it for the last like 10 years keeps renwing it asking some high amount for it
01:24:11<flashfire42>I heard a few problems with people having issues when we finally allowed the TLD .au here in ozzie land. Previously you had to have .com.au or .net.au or .org.au but with .au becoming available people flocked to buy the best domains
01:24:32<BPCZ>money isn't the issue, it's man hours and physical space. We've had to delay over a year for some stuff to free floor space as compute is finally retired and telling the compute guys to build out new dedicated compute specific DCs. I really just want a 1 million sqft darksite datacenter but due heat density being the limiting factor going bigger actually hurts us with like way too much overhead in cooling cost
01:25:17<flashfire42>Put a spa out back and funnel the heat into that? Doesnt IA use their servers instead of paying for heating

20:57:43<Barto>🔥🔥🔥
21:00:37<Doranwen>Meanwhile I'm having fun watching all the fandom people on Reddit go crazy because AO3's been DDoSed, and their only update method is Twitter (so people keep having to post screenshots for everyone else to see what the updates are). Periodically I remind people they can browse it via the WBM and funnel the fic links to FicHub to get cached versions to read.
21:01:18Doranwen wonders whether they'll realize at some point that they really ought to have a communication method that's readable without an account…
21:03:21<@JAA>*cough* IA *cough*
21:07:13<fireonlive>you mean mastodon that's hosted in the same place as..
21:07:15<fireonlive>:p
21:08:29<@JAA>:-)
21:08:45<@JAA>Well, they do have the maintenance page thing that's hosted somewhere else.
21:10:36<Doranwen>Where is that exactly?
21:11:03<@JAA>No idea
21:11:58<@JAA>Or maybe it's just backed by a UPS or similar, which wouldn't be feasible for the rest of the system.
21:13:05<Doranwen>The only thing I can find when I search is the ao3_status twitter, which, well, Twitter. :P
21:13:53<@JAA>Oh, I was talking about IA, not AO3.
21:14:04<@JAA>They also use Twitter for communication during outages.
21:14:12<Doranwen>Ah, gotcha.
21:16:33<Doranwen>Me, at least I've already snagged several large fandoms of fic (tens of thousands of fics) via ao3downloader and plan on doing more when the site's back up. Tons and tons to read if I wanted to.
21:17:22<Doranwen>And then there was the person who posted about how this was one of the rare moments when doomsday prepping (aka downloading over a gigabyte of fanfics) pays off. XD
21:21:52<fireonlive>ao3downloader eh <_<
21:24:46<Doranwen>Are you familiar with it? I hadn't heard of it till recently.
21:24:58<Doranwen>I'd have been grabbing fics with it long before, lol.
21:26:19<fireonlive>am not but i think found the repo

22:17:59<jasonswohl>ahhh, interesting
22:18:07<jasonswohl>also for those wondering: got a static IP now :) told them to drop me back down to 500/500 from 750, but seems they forgot to do that part :)

22:25:12<fireonlive>jasonswohl: hope they didn't forget about the bill too :p
22:42:23<@rewby>Just wondering, is it worth doing a mass archive of AO3?
22:44:02<fireonlive>hmmm, i haven't super used it myself, but it does seem quite popular: more than 59,110 fandoms | 5,995,000 users | 11,380,000 works
22:44:09<fireonlive>from their homepage
22:44:27<@rewby>Yeah. but also, 11m works isn't much
22:44:30<@rewby>It's basically only text
22:44:37<fireonlive>for sure
22:44:41<@rewby>And most works are like 2 maybe 3 pages
22:44:47<@rewby>Which is fuckall with our compression
22:45:02<fireonlive>may as well :D
22:45:40<@rewby>arkiver: Thoughts on above?
22:45:55<@rewby>Although we'd wait until after the DDoS
22:45:59<fireonlive>ye
22:46:11<fireonlive>i don't think it's all erotica like a nifty.org would be either
22:46:16<Doranwen>A whole lot of fics are archive-only now because of the ChatGPT scraping stuff.
22:46:31<Doranwen>And no, there's lots of gen, fluff, family stories, etc.
22:46:37<fireonlive>ah ok
22:46:57<Doranwen>Still a minority of all fics are locked, but I know the ratio of locked ones went up.
22:47:03<@rewby>Doranwen: Locked how?
22:47:09<Doranwen>You have to have an account to view them.
22:47:11<@rewby>Ah
22:47:15<@rewby>Hm
22:47:24<@rewby>I wonder how well that filter actually works
22:47:24<Doranwen>But they download the same as non-archive-locked if you use their download features.
22:47:45<Doranwen>Like, the downloaded versions don't have any embedded data on the person d/l-ing.
22:47:53<@rewby>Ah. Might be interesting to at least get a massive IA item or two with a pile of versions
22:48:06<Doranwen>I've been using ao3downloader to grab the archive-locked fics as well.
22:48:17<Doranwen>Since it's possible to put one's account info in that way.
22:48:25<@rewby>All of them or just some?
22:48:31<Doranwen>Any archive-locked fic.
22:48:34<@rewby>Ah
22:48:41<Doranwen>They're not blocked for downloading, just viewing without an account.
22:48:46<@rewby>You interested in maybe just grabbing them all?
22:48:53<Doranwen>I don't think there's a way for anyone to block their fic from being d/l-ed.
22:48:53<@rewby>Aka the archiveteam way :tm:
22:49:03<Doranwen>LOL, once I've gotten *my* sets, maybe.
22:49:10<@rewby>Heh
22:49:18<@rewby>Not sure what kinda sizes we looking at
22:49:20<Doranwen>But I'm not grabbing everything - just the fandoms I want - in the formats I want - with a few filters applied.
22:49:25<@arkiver>hi
22:49:40<Doranwen>I've been grabbing epub, pdf, and html - I use all of them for different purposes.
22:49:50<@rewby>It's a subject somewhat dear to me
22:49:51<Doranwen>Epub only is a good deal smaller than all three combined, of course.
22:50:08<@rewby>I used to read fanfiction all the time when I was younger, a lot of it vanished and I still read some occasionally to this day
22:50:36<Doranwen>Yeah, I've lost fic over the years, have a stash of "dead fic" even now, stuff you can't find anywhere else.
22:50:37<@arkiver>is 11 million small enough for AB or do we need this in somewhat short time?
22:51:05<@rewby>It's not really a short time kinda thing afaik. But a bunch of it is login-walled
22:51:07<Doranwen>AB can't get it all because of the archive-locking, and can it get past the "yes, I'm 18" box?
22:51:25<@rewby>Isn't that box just a plain href?
22:51:43<Doranwen>If you view without an account you have to click to certify you're 18 to see a bunch of the fics. I know at least one fic I found on the WBM I couldn't access because all it captured was that screen.
22:52:04<@rewby>The reason for login wall, btw, is purely to tell openai to piss off as far as I can tell
22:53:21<@rewby>http://web.archive.org/web/20230521045518/https://archiveofourown.org/admin_posts/25888?show_comments=true
22:53:49<@rewby>Although they don't want to have their archives publicly available
22:54:09<@JAA>Can we move this to -bs please?
22:54:22<@rewby>Ah oops. I can't read channel names apparently
22:56:07<nulldata>So uh as I was saying - InfluxDB Cloud == bad :P
