While they misunderstand it...

> The ISP offers regular internet plans with caped usage and overage fees, SAME AS ANY OTHER ISP and doesn’t block access to any of the listed services. They also offer addons which provide unmetered or large chunks of data bandwidth to popular services, that don’t count against your monthly bandwidth cap and prevent you from triggering the more expensive bandwidth overage charges.

That's not how it works. That's not how any of it works ;p

Many ISPs just sell you "service at this speed" and.... actually have the infra where overall usage caps would be a waste of breath.

@bwDraco heh, most PCs are under load

if its a space heater under load, and a kitten outside it, your system scales well ;p

bwDraco

lol

Yeah.

Don't have exact power measurements - at full overclocks for CPU and GPU, I reckon that power consumption is in the ballpark of 500W.

It was doing approx. 350-400W earlier and the room temperature rose by about 5C over the last several hours.

(my bedroom isn't exactly well-ventilated when the door and windows are closed)

allquixotic

05:53

I don't have my exact PC power consumption because the PSU reports (over a USB cable to the PC) the power draw on the entire UPS, which has my monitor and a powered USB hub plugged into it too.

but it's 225W just using Chrome

720p Youtube hardware-accelerated video decode draws about 20W of power on top of that baseline

Journeyman Geek

._. I've never really bothered ;p

Bob

@bwDraco That's... pretty high.

I think a full load (Furmark GPU + CPU loads) was in the region of 350-400 here. The overclock might be pushing yours to 500, though.

bwDraco

@Bob The GTX 1080 Ti does use more power than most graphics cards.

Bob

@JourneymanGeek Corsair Link and/or UPS monitor = easy power consumption monitoring :P

Journeyman Geek

maybe with my next build ;p

bwDraco

06:06

Based on the data I'm able to collect, the card's probably pulling about 200W, while the processor's doing another 100. VRMs are probably responsible for another 20-30W, and the rest of the parts would add up to about 350-400W.

Bob

I'm semi-idling at 185W incl monitor

bwDraco

At full overclock, about 150W is dissipated from the processor, while about 250W comes from the graphics card.

Bob

PSU reports ~110W out, ~125W in

bwDraco

I don't have any accurate measurements from the wall, so I would not be able to say how much power is being used under less stress - I'd want to guess about 30-50W at idle and 40-80W during web browsing.

I really need a Kill A Watt meter.

Bob

meh, those are annoying unless you leave them hooked up

cause you need to go through a full power cycle

however, you do need a UPS :D

nah, kinda depends on how your power is

bwDraco

06:11

@Bob Well, I was looking into getting one, but New York City power is generally pretty stable save for the occasional power drop about once every couple of months or so.

Bob

> power drop about once every couple of months

I... would consider that bad.

I mean, we're down to an average of 1 per year, though there wasn't one last year.

That said... brownouts are worse.

About five years ago it was once every month or two. That's when I got the UPS :P

bwDraco

Doesn't really happen often. I'd say it's just a momentary drop about 3-5 times a year - we go not get brownouts or other more serious power quality issues.

It's getting late here, so gotta go to bed.

@DavidPostill Yeah. All it takes is to no be an overzealous Christian.

DavidPostill

On the other paw:

Interesting number paradox

The interesting number paradox is a semi-humorous paradox which arises from the attempt to classify natural numbers as "interesting" or "dull". The paradox states that all natural numbers are interesting. The "proof" is by contradiction: if there exists a non-empty set of uninteresting numbers, there would be a smallest uninteresting number – but the smallest uninteresting number is itself interesting because it is the smallest uninteresting number, thus producing a contradiction. == Paradoxical nature == Attempting to classify all numbers this way leads to a paradox or an antinomy of definition...

Alcohol flush reaction

Alcohol flush reaction is a condition in which an individual develops flushes or blotches associated with erythema on the face, neck, shoulders, and in some cases, the entire body after consuming alcoholic beverages. The reaction is the result of an accumulation of acetaldehyde, a metabolic byproduct of the catabolic metabolism of alcohol, and is caused by an acetaldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency. This syndrome has been associated with an increased risk of esophageal cancer in those who drink. It has also been associated with lower than average rates of alcoholism, possibly due to its association...

@FleetCommand Krishna and Shiva are both forms of basically the same god afaik. And while there are devotees of both in India, it's all basically Hinduism

We have several gods

DavidPostill

> In recorded history, the very first God to appear in Hinduism is none other than Lord Shiva. Pashupati, the primitive form of Lord Shiva can be found in the Indus Valley Civilization around 3500 BC while Krishna emerged around 500 BC. People worshiped him as one of the ten Avatars of Lord Vishnu, not as the Supreme Godhead.

There is also history of Muslim – Parsee riots (List of riots in Mumbai).

> The Sunni branch believes that the first four caliphs--Mohammed's successors--rightfully took his place as the leaders of Muslims. They recognize the heirs of the four caliphs as legitimate religious leaders. These heirs ruled continuously in the Arab world until the break-up of the Ottoman Empire following the end of the First World War.

Shiites, in contrast, believe that only the heirs of the fourth caliph, Ali, are the legitimate successors of Mohammed. In 931 the Twelfth Imam disappeared. This was a seminal event in the history of Shiite Muslims. According to R. Scott Appleby, a prof…

user226528

Dissolution of the Monasteries

The Dissolution of the Monasteries, sometimes referred to as the Suppression of the Monasteries, was the set of administrative and legal processes between 1536 and 1541 by which Henry VIII disbanded monasteries, priories, convents and friaries in England, Wales and Ireland, appropriated their income, disposed of their assets, and provided for their former personnel and functions. Although the policy was originally envisaged as increasing the regular income of the Crown, much former monastic property was sold off to fund Henry's military campaigns in the 1540s. He was given the authority to do this...

Journeyman Geek

@FleetCommand oh. WHY.

Yeah. Autocorrect. Sorry.

@FleetCommand medivial papacies was a mess.

And popist anti-popes!

DavidPostill

Why? Basically he was after the money:

>From 1534 onwards, Cromwell and King Henry were constantly seeking ways to redirect ecclesiastical income to the benefit of the Crown—efforts they justified by contending that much ecclesiastical revenue had been improperly diverted from royal resources in the first place.

user226528

You know, the kind that believed in papacy but not in a certain pope.

user226528

@DavidPostill Excuse me? I was under the impression he was after a certain bride...

Journeyman Geek

@DavidPostill oddly enough, I thought he basically was shopping for archbishops as well.

user226528

The name "Anne Boleyn" rings any bell?

DavidPostill

@FleetCommand No. He was pissed off because the pope wouldn't annul his first marriage to Catherine of Aragorn, and then he got excommunicated. In the end the Archbishop of Canterbury annulled the marriage and he married Anne Boleyn.

user226528

@DavidPostill Exactly.

DavidPostill

> His disagreement with the Pope on the question of such an annulment led Henry to initiate the English Reformation, separating the Church of England from papal authority and appointing himself the Supreme Head of the Church of England. Despite his resulting excommunication, Henry remained a believer in core Catholic theological teachings.[2]

Journeyman Geek

14:41

who he ... had a somewhat terminal divorce with?

DavidPostill

@JourneymanGeek Not before that marriage was annulled as well ;)

>
Catherine of Aragon (marriage annulled, died while detained under guard at Kimbolton Castle, mother of Mary I)
Anne Boleyn (marriage annulled, then beheaded, mother of Elizabeth I)
Jane Seymour (died twelve days after giving birth to Edward VI, believed to be caused by birth complications)
Anne of Cleves (marriage annulled, outlived the rest of the wives)
Catherine Howard (beheaded)
Catherine Parr (widowed at death of Henry VIII, remarried to Thomas Seymour)

Journeyman Geek

hence the "shopping for archbishiops"

user226528

@DavidPostill To put it crude and frank language, he thought what p***s mandate is more important than the word of the God he says he believes in.

DavidPostill

@JourneymanGeek Yeah

> After failing to negotiate an annulment of Henry's marriage to Catherine of Aragon, Wolsey fell out of favour and was stripped of his government titles. He retreated to York to fulfill his ecclesiastical duties as Archbishop of York, a position he nominally held, but had neglected during his years in government. He was recalled to London to answer to charges of treason—a common charge used by Henry against ministers who fell out of favour—but died en route of natural causes.

user226528

Huh. I just noticed that "p***s" could represent two different words: One of them is a euphemism for the other, if the context says the person related to it is a man.

Is one of the consequences of the Pope Joan story, whether it was true or false, the use of a marble chair with a large, toilet-like hole in its seat? As the picture above shows, it seems that that chair has been a part of the papal enthronement, when the pope-elect had to sit on the seat nake...

user226528

@DavidPostill Muslim womanizers have another method: They level death threats against the clergy until one of them says the marriage falls within those rare exceptions by the mean of which a Muslim man can have up to four living wives.

Anyone here ever setup an OpenVPN server hosted on Server 2012 R2 VM from Hyper-V running on Server 2012 R2 Data Center?

Or just run an OpenVPN server hosted on Windows Server 2012 R2 VM I suppose the host OS may not matter

If so just curious of any gotchas anyone may have run into getting VPN connected clients to be able to access LAN IPs / subnet on the other side of the VPN server? I can connect, have gateway static routes setup, IP forwarding enable on OS, even client push routes accordingly and can connect just fine but once connected it seems like the OpenVPN VPN gateway IP isn't routing once it reaches it from LAN or VPN subnet between the two. So any ideas or gotchas anyone has run into that may be helpful.

@djsmiley2k Thanks, I ended up not being able to get it so I switched the VM over to SoftEther after some research on it, and it connected, and the local LAN is accessible. Same server, etc. just reverted back to start pre OpenVPN install and started with SoftEther. Not sure what the deal was but I had everything to a T down and quadruple checked—easier to find a workable solution that was probably timelier than further troubleshooting that issue.

It uses port 5555 rather than 1194 or whatever but just a FW appliance 1 NAT IP rule change there.

Still curious if anyone has ever gotten OpenVPN to run on Server 2012 R2 VM guest server while that is being hosted on a Server 2012 R2 Data Center host server, and able to get to access resources on the LAN side of the connected VPN tunnel. I could make the connection just not hop across the tunnel from either side with routes and all triple checked, OS enable forwarding ticket, etc. was odd for me at least.

Non-bridged too so I was using the routed method... no more said now from me on that...

A: How to diagnose a Windows blue screen?

When the computer bluescreens it'll most likely create a dump of the memory. The content from memory is written to the Pagefile as the system is going down. It uses the Pagefile as placeholder for the data since it is too dangerous to try to create a new file on disk. When the machine starts up ...
