asciilifeform: meanwhile, preview of patched gnathtml.pl. will be included w/ next ffa ch.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Is your rack getting hit with internet weather?
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: nope ( or i'd expect the other bot would cough )
asciilifeform: seems like it's just the fleanode noad wg was connected to
asciilifeform: they're both set to 'roulette' (irc.freenode.net) , so they often hang on different servs
BingoBoingo_: asciilifeform: Sorry if I missed any chat lines, logs.nosuchlabs.com is also failing to connect now
asciilifeform: interesting. seems to load 100% here
asciilifeform: and the trb noad is gettin' blox
BingoBoingo_: Connection to the .4 box for the bouncer has been off and on, but mostly off
BingoBoingo_: https://archive.is/oDCxq Suggests congestion and some luck is involved in which packets make it through
asciilifeform: whatever it is, doesn't seem to be affecting snsabot , or the connectivity to my chair. i'ma file a ticket w/ upstream just in case
BingoBoingo_: Cool, ty
asciilifeform: done.
BingoBoingo_: tyvm
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: lemme know re whether see packet loss to box
asciilifeform will count this as an outage, even tho can't detect it himself. as usual +1 day of shop credit to all subscribers.
BingoBoingo_: asciilifeform: Will put something in place to check in a bit. Going to do some irl'ing and await the response to your ticket. Could be more BGP weird
asciilifeform: erry other time it was a whole-rack thing and visible to naked eye.
asciilifeform: !q uptime
snsabot: asciilifeform: time since my last reconnect : 7d 1h 23m
asciilifeform: will report when i get answer .
BingoBoingo_: Well, there are perks of physical proximity to rack
asciilifeform: indeed, last time around i pulled answer outta folx in person
asciilifeform: ( demanded , and got, to see the actual 'reactor controls' )
asciilifeform: atm i suspect some upstream strange. not only snsabot not yet dropped, but none of my shells either
asciilifeform: upstream : 'investigating now, will update you'
BingoBoingo: And connection has returned at least for now. Bouncer spat some lines into the client, so wasn't a symmetrical failure to connect at all
asciilifeform suspects bgpism
BingoBoingo: BGPism does fit the failure mode
asciilifeform: can't think of much else that'd give this picture

asciilifeform: np
asciilifeform: !w help
watchglass: asciilifeform: my valid commands are: src, uptime, help, probe, peers, version, poll
asciilifeform: ^ complete knobs.
asciilifeform: btw updated 'watchglass' page w/ vpatch corresponding to currently-deployed bot (w/ 'peers' cmd.)
verisimilitude: It may be better to get a list of the essays and then simply read them on his website, Mellowlink.

osmarTN: I wanted to say that I liked your article about the downsides of VPN usage.
