jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: wouldnt these stations crash tho
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: i dont seem to be recving packets from whaack looking @ logs anyway. not peered with mod6
jonsykkel[asciilifeform|billymg]: (mine did not cuz had patched manually)
jonsykkel[asciilifeform|billymg]: testing123
jonsykkel[asciilifeform|billymg]: ok smalpesting now, bot sees me anyway
PeterL[asciilifeform|billymg]: awt: http://btc.info.gf/paste/467a4e@raw crashed, you know what this error message means?
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: PeterL: I haven't seen this exception before. Are you perhaps on a laptop where the network interface is going up/down?
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: jonsykkel: true whaack and mod6 appear to be offline from here as well
PeterL[asciilifeform|billymg]: 2022-03-01 15:51:58: so looking at that on a laptop, but it was plugged in all night, and it has always been pretty stable in the past
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: PeterL: anything in syslog indicating network downtime?
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: pestbot: echo gm
pestbot[asciilifeform|billymg]: 2022-03-01 15:59:25: gm
PeterL[asciilifeform|billymg]: 2022-03-01 15:57:19: what does pestbot do?
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: PeterL: supports one command: echo. For sanity checks when lines aren't showing up in the log, etc.
PeterL[asciilifeform|billymg]: 2022-03-01 15:58:15: ah, I see. Are you going to add more functions to it?
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: PeterL: no immediate plans. Lemme know if you have ideas.
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: Inititally there were a lot of issues with the logger either omitting certain lines or not sending log line echoes, etc. So I set up pestbot also for a sanity check in those cases.
awt[asciilifeform]: As a minimum case to ensure blatta is funcioning at a basic level.
billymg: !. uptime
bitbot: billymg: time since my last reconnect : 3d 17h 34m
billymg: i still only see responses from the bot in the logs, not in my console
billymg: lemme check the blatta logs
billymg: !. uptime
bitbot: billymg: time since my last reconnect : 3d 17h 35m
billymg: logs show that the bot sends its response to asciilifeform, but not billymg
billymg: asciilifeform: do you see bitbot's echos in your console by any chance?
billymg: echos and/or responses to commands
asciilifeform: 2022-03-01 16:22:49: billymg: not since pressed awt's latest ver
billymg: actually, sorry, the bot's pest station logs show that it's relaying my "!. uptime" message to asciilifeform, not its response. its responses don't show up anywhere in the station logs
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: how does asciilifeform envison timestamp wallops to look?
asciilifeform: awt: was thinking, simply precede erry replayed msg w/ 1 wallop containing e.g. 'Replay: 2022-03-01 10:57:19:'
asciilifeform: afaik there's no way to make this (and many other ircisms) entirely un-ugly
awt[asciilifeform|billymg]: asciilifeform: why wallop and not notice? wallops seems kind of weird
asciilifeform: awt: notice (at least on irssi) dun appear in all sessions
asciilifeform: what you want is for it to be visible under any circumstances immediately above the pertinent msg
