ruaok: I'm now seeing ETA 2 hours.
9:57 AM
ianmcorvidae
ruaok: probably warp, I'm seeing 6hr
9:57 AM
ocharles
warp: though considerably more readable :)
9:57 AM
ianmcorvidae
ruaok: he's been getting it faster, what with my being on 'murican ISP :P
9:58 AM
psh, such low information density!
9:58 AM
ruaok
the transatlantic link also leaves a lot to be desired.
9:58 AM
ocharles
actually, that's *high* information density. same information, less pixels :)
9:58 AM
ianmcorvidae
though I really wish rtorrent had an availability metric
9:58 AM
ocharles: it doesn't have the same information, though
9:58 AM
ruaok
I seriously considering renting a tiny VM with gobs of bandwidth in the EU and setup up my own mirror.
9:58 AM
+'m
9:58 AM
ocharles
Hm, I guess it doesn't show the actual number, that's implied by the colour
9:59 AM
ianmcorvidae
ocharles: at least not that a human can extract
9:59 AM
yeah
9:59 AM
ruaok
anyone in the EU have a suggestion for a provider that fits this bill?
9:59 AM
ocharles
i don't care about the number really though
9:59 AM
ianmcorvidae
ruaok: hetzner/OVH seem to be the main recs there?
9:59 AM
ocharles
ruaok: if you only want to store files, s3?
9:59 AM
that's my file store server
10:00 AM
ianmcorvidae
it also only shows you only downloaded/not, as well -- mine also has queued/actively being downloaded
10:00 AM
ruaok
I want a FTP mirror.
10:00 AM
voiceinsideyou joined the channel
10:00 AM
ianmcorvidae
there may be a detail screen for some of this stuff though, I'm not sure
10:01 AM
ruaok
13EUR for 40GB and 2TB data transfer.
10:04 AM
warp
ruaok: OVH is probably the cheapest (especially their new Atom based dedicated servers at 3 EUR/month ex. VAT).
10:04 AM
ruaok
yeah, looks pretty good.
10:04 AM
ocharles
I had good luck with OVH in the past as a seedbox for what.cd
10:04 AM
warp
gandi is obviously popular for VPS'es in europe.
10:05 AM
luks
hetzner generally gives you 100TB data tranfer, if you use some cheap server from the auction you can get it for about 20EUR
10:05 AM
ocharles
my Linode is $20/mo for 2TB transfer and 50GB storage
10:05 AM
but I pay more for something I trust more as it has my blog on
10:05 AM
ianmcorvidae
OVH/hetzner are more central within europe too, which may not matter
10:05 AM
IIRC linode's only in london
10:05 AM
(american company and all XD)
10:05 AM
ocharles
isn't that in europe? :)
10:05 AM
ruaok
I am ok with the tiny MB/cores, but I want more disk space.
10:05 AM
ianmcorvidae
ocharles: more central, though
10:05 AM
ruaok
anyone know if I can add more disk?
10:05 AM
ocharles
you can add more disk to linode for a shit load of money
10:06 AM
so don't do that :P
10:06 AM
ianmcorvidae
ocharles: as mentioned, it may not matter :P
10:06 AM
warp
ruaok: those 3 EUR dedicated machines at OVH have 500GB
10:06 AM
ruaok
got link?
10:06 AM
ianmcorvidae
10:06 AM
(was in browser history :P cheating, I know)
10:07 AM
ocharles
heh, 12GB additional space, only $144/year!
10:07 AM
wat.
10:07 AM
ianmcorvidae
oh, I guess ovh is in the UK too, thought they were french for some reason
10:07 AM
warp
10:07 AM
ocharles
I thought they were too
10:07 AM
ruaok
wow, thats awesome.
10:07 AM
I wonder how long to provision this.
10:07 AM
1 to 10 days?
10:07 AM
I hopes its less than that
10:07 AM
warp
(replace .es with .nl/.de/.fr/etc.. for prices/language of other countries)
10:07 AM
ocharles
I think I got mine in less than two days
10:12 AM
ianmcorvidae
seems I'm the only US peer thus far :(
10:12 AM
CH/GBx2/NLx2/DE/ES/FR/me :P
10:12 AM
warp
we have a duplicate now that ocharles joined.
10:13 AM
(oh, I didn't notice the NLx2 because I'm one of them >_<)
10:13 AM
ianmcorvidae
haha
10:14 AM
ruaok
in .de that offering is 4EUR
10:14 AM
hm.
10:14 AM
3.62 in .nl
10:14 AM
warp
ruaok: note that VAT is included in the .de prices.
10:15 AM
ruaok
3.62 in .es too
10:15 AM
what is VAT in .nl?
10:16 AM
warp
BTW
10:16 AM
Mineo mehs at his universities network blocking (nearly) all ipv4 udp traffic so he can't find any peers :(
10:16 AM
3.58 in france
10:16 AM
ianmcorvidae
oh, rtorrent does have availability
10:16 AM
it was just put overly succinctly :P
10:17 AM
[C/A/D 1/7/0.57] how could I not know that that mean 1.57 availability :P
10:17 AM

feh, I have to order from my country.
10:20 AM

JonnyJD_: sure, gimme a sec
10:20 AM
nikki
it'd be nice if the blog post said how big the vm is
10:20 AM
well, how big the torrent is, mostly XD
10:21 AM
ocharles
well the torrent is tiny :P
10:21 AM
nikki
well, is it compressed at all?
10:21 AM
ocharles
the torrent is not compressed, but I'm being pedantic (the torrent is a few KB)
10:21 AM
nikki
well stop it :P
10:21 AM
ocharles
this is musicbrainz~
10:21 AM
!
10:22 AM
you all do it with me :P
10:22 AM
ianmcorvidae
10:22 AM
JonnyJD_
ianmcorvidae: thx
10:22 AM
ianmcorvidae
nikki: it's an ova, which is compressed -- it's just a lot of data I think XD
10:22 AM
nikki
but how much?
10:22 AM
nikki has no idea if she has enough free space
10:22 AM
ianmcorvidae
9.4GB
10:22 AM
nikki
hm
10:22 AM
ianmcorvidae will add that to the blog post
10:23 AM
JonnyJD_
I heard something about 40 GB (in the end)
10:23 AM
or was that a different VM ruaok was testing?
10:24 AM
JonnyJD_ is talking about what space the VM will need on disc in working condition
10:24 AM
ianmcorvidae
blog post updated, anyway
10:24 AM
warp
ocharles: hm, I haven't seen "torrent" used in that way.
10:24 AM
ianmcorvidae
JonnyJD_: that bit I don't know yet :) ruaok might know
10:24 AM
ruaok
this one came out at 10GB.
10:24 AM
I think thats because we used a much smaller base box than before
10:25 AM
but I've not even tried this yet.
10:25 AM
it may not work. :(
10:25 AM
nikki
ianmcorvidae: thanks
10:25 AM
JonnyJD_ is downloading/uploading the VM torrent now
10:27 AM
ruaok
ok, new server ordered. once its gets provisioned, I'll setup the EU mirror and maybe a torrent tracker
10:28 AM
sseder at least.
10:28 AM
JonnyJD_
ruaok: I don't think we need a separate tracker, but seeder would be nice
10:28 AM
ruaok
agreed.
10:29 AM
nikki
ocharles: are you busy right now?
10:30 AM
ruaok
10:31 AM
nikki
heh
10:31 AM
ocharles
nikki: nope, what's up?
10:31 AM
ruaok: I found a tumblr blog today which has loads of porn censorsed with Cameron's face
10:31 AM
that was good satire :P
10:31 AM
nikki
was just wondering about some of the tickets in the next fix version
10:32 AM
ian thought you were working on mbs-2959, but it's not assigned to you, so I was wondering if you were or not
10:32 AM
mb-chat-logger
10:32 AM
ocharles
I sort of am
10:32 AM
that is the one that has a huge amount of rows to update, so I need to investigate replication first
10:32 AM
I haven't done that yet. I might focus on that today
10:33 AM
nikki
k
10:33 AM
ocharles
I'll assign it to me
10:33 AM
nikki
mbs-6525 you were working on but that's not assigned to you either
10:33 AM
mb-chat-logger
10:34 AM
nikki
from what I could tell, it's just the relationship editor parts that are left to do, right?
10:34 AM
ocharles
yea, and that is sadly appearing to be beyond me
10:34 AM
so someone is welcome to pick up my branch and give it a shot
10:34 AM
I tried, failed, and become pretty burnt out about it :(
10:34 AM
ianmcorvidae
hey, another US peer :P
10:35 AM
nikki
so I should pester ian to do it and try and rope bitmap in, I guess :P
10:35 AM
ocharles
bitmap is probably the priority here, yea :)
10:37 AM
ocharles tuts that ruaok has violated the review protocol
10:37 AM
virtualmachine reviews please!
10:37 AM
ianmcorvidae
ruaok: oh, btw, did you see that email to the GSoC mentors list about featuring veteran organizations? Was thinking that might be interesting to do
10:37 AM
ocharles: it does say it's beta in the blog post :)
10:37 AM
ruaok
ianmcorvidae: exactly.
10:37 AM
nikki
alsooo the two that are assigned to you (mbs-2021, mbs-6163), are you making any progress on those? (I dunno about the latter but I don't remember seeing anything for the former)
10:37 AM
ruaok
and the review is coming.
10:38 AM
I just wanted to get something out on the 1st.
10:38 AM
