@djsmiley2k possibly but the link doesn't strike me as an attack page, albeit outdated

I just figured they were a blogger wanting some views

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL CAPS LOCK DAY!

5

Caps lock

Caps Lock is a button on a computer keyboard that, when pressed, causes all letters to be generated in capitals until deactivated. It is located in the position of a similar Shift lock key (and sometimes a Ctrl key) found in some other keyboard layouts. It is usually a toggle key: each press reverses its action. Exactly what Caps Lock does depends on the operating system and driver, and the keyboard layout implemented. On non-IBM PC-compatible computers it may also depend on the keyboard hardware. Usually the effect is the same as pressing keys with the shift key depressed; letters are capitalised...

lol so this is fun.

got annoyed with DHCP clients not setting their IP to their DNS when it changes

eventually went 'screw it, I'll try and log in to DC1...

and i'm in.

Now, how can I tell if a DNS record was created by the DHCP server or not?

Is this Windows DHCP and DNS?

yup

I see

if it's static there's no timestamp

So why on earth is it not updating with the new IP I wonder...

Are all clients doing this, or only some?

8:36 PM

only some

I think updates from this network are blocked or something

but if it's a 'new' ip, it works

I think there's a checkbox in the network settings of the client that says "register this connection's address in DNS" or something along those lines

yup

that's enabled

i even tried disabling it and re-enablign it

It's almost like, it can't change the ip if it didn't originate from that network

this is the 2nd laptop we've had this issue with - it's when a laptop has been used out on the estate... then can't be connected internally... :/

Might make a good SF question

Alas, I do not know the answer :/

ugh the neighbours are back to parking terribly

I park normally next to people that park terribly... it's funny when someone can't get in their car.

Burgi

sadly they have parked so badly that i can't get my car into the bay to do that

9:22 PM

@MichaelFrank yup

@Burgi accidently nudge em?

i accidently park my car close

accidently smash my door into theirs

whoops, srry, c%£%wombles.

9:47 PM

@djsmiley2k LOL

UNFORTUNATELY I'M NOT PROGRAMMING IN SQL OR COBOL TODAY; MY GROOVY/JAVA EDITOR DOESN'T LIKE THIS CODE :(

30 short of the rep cap with less than two hours to go.

What's the fastest way to migrate 21 iphones to new iphones. :|

@MichaelFrank iTombs?

iShrooms?

iBiscuits?

10:27 PM

Turns out "Here's your new iphone, install iTunes and do a backup/restore." is a good option.

yup :)

why do i keep playing cod

It'll be interesting when the remote reps come in... they probably won't bring their laptops.

so many lamers :(

> "I put that down to people using the refund system as a demo," Newman tells me. "I think in the long run, people knowing the refund system is there probably gained us more sales than it lost us."

It probably also cut piracy rates.

> Rust has sold over 5.5 million units, after all.

Wow. Just wow.

This is an object lesson on how being nice to your customers is a Good Idea™.

Granted, it was EA that started this (Origin was the first digital distribution platform to allow refunds) but Valve deserves credit for doing this right.

@bwDraco it sold 5,509,983 copies

as of this second.

+-64k but meh

@Avery How does the number of owners float over time?

"Oh, we had a few players die so they don't count"

by float do you mean go down?

Yeah. Well, the numbers go up and down.

Up = new sales.
Down = ????

10:47 PM

refunds.

There's been 40k refunds on a single day!!! (15/jun to 16/jun)

lol

sec

@ThatREDACTEDGuy store.steampowered.com/stats/support

check that backlog

214,126 refund requests were submitted yesterday

Also steamspy is mostly doing crazy maths to calculate stuff, so they all might not be refunds.

there's also this. Rust got 300k+ refunds to date.

WTF happened Jun 23? Steam sale started?

10:51 PM

yup

@allquixotic kcare doesn't support deb9 yet

Use three Intel Optane Memory modules in RAID 0 for EXTREME performance!

Sequential I/O performance suffers a bit, but the low queue depth random I/O numbers are astronomically high.

Jan 7 '16 at 17:53, by bwDraco

Latency and IOPS at low queue depth are the main determinant of storage responsiveness in consumer environments.

...and this is precisely where Optane excels.
