[eleos] Greetings.
[xbeastx] hello
[eleos] Is this the partry?
[xbeastx] so far as i can tell yes :)
[eleos] I have never used this chat function, I cannot see what
I am typing. :)
[xbeastx] use :echo
[eleos] Testing...Thanks!
[xbeastx] though it distrubs the flow
[eleos] Are you a sysadmin?
[xbeastx] not on these systems
[eleos] Ah, I see. I was hoping for some VR hors d'oevres. ;)
[xbeastx] that probally falls to smj he does *everything* here
[eleos] Gotcha.
[xbeastx] are you new to SDF?
[19:03:35] andre@sdf has joined party.
[andre] I wonder if anyone
[andre] has been bidding on the old machines...
[xbeastx] yes
[eleos] Not me, no $$$.
[andre] same here
[andre] Are they still wrorth a decent amount, or too old/devalued?
[xbeastx] so my odds are improveing? :)
[xbeastx] they are very nice machines if you nkow how to use them
[19:14:55] pieckiel@sdf has joined party.
[xbeastx] hello
[pieckiel] Greetings.
[eleos] Greetings.
[19:17:26] smj@sdf has joined party.
[smj] Hey guys
[smj] There is a 4100 on ebay dual processors (same procs as
this machine) going for $2500 buy it now
[eleos] Hey boss. :)
[xbeastx] hello ...
[smj] the main difference between the 4100 and the 1200 is taht
the 4100 can hold 4 processors
[smj] I'd be happy to answer any questions you guys might have
about the AS1200
[eleos] I am just here for the snacks. :)
[smj] no problem.
[19:26:41] hackwhor@sdf has joined party.
[hackwhor] wheres the beer?
[xbeastx] in the keg :)
[hackwhor] heh...silly me
[hackwhor] what time do the male strippers get here?
[smj] I'm already here.
[hackwhor] hehe...ur so cute ;)
<smj dances>
<hackwhor twirls>
[pieckiel] good grief... :)
[hackwhor] NOW its a party
[pieckiel] When will you post bid results?
[smj] at 23:59:59
[19:31:38] jboy@sdf has joined party.
[smj] its a silent auction,rememert?
[smj] I can't really say much ..
[jboy] hey all
[hackwhor] hey
[smj] we've got plenty of bidders though
[pieckiel] Yeah.. but I didn't know if you were waiting for any reason
to post them.
[smj] well, I can't ..
[jboy] it's a ten hour time difference between cet and pst now
[smj] isn't it bad form to post the results of a silent auction?
[pieckiel] Hrm... good point.
[hackwhor] not if we dont look ;)
[jboy] hmm... beer anyone?
[pieckiel] Those things have got to be heavy. I wonder what shipping
is gonna cost...?
[smj] its not bad
[smj] I've got a good deal with airborne
[smj] we can probably do it for $60 in the US
[pieckiel] Better than I thought. I'd have expected between $100 and
$150. But I'm also used to shipping via FedEx or FedEx Ground.
[19:36:05] anthony@sdf has joined party.
[pieckiel] And they keep coming in...
[19:36:45] wrmine@sdf has joined party.
[jboy] thank you indeed, sdf!
[smj] I'd be happy to answer any questions about the AS1200s
[anthony] just how old are they?
[19:37:24] core@sdf has joined party.
[smj] We sort of pushed NetBSD to its limits .. but the hardware
was so reliable
[smj] they are 1999-2001
[core] where's the beer keg?
[smj] hehe..
[pieckiel] I think jboy has it.
[smj] BYOB
[core] heh
[jboy] yes
[pieckiel] Do bidders get their choice of blue or white? <GRiN>
[smj] Well, yes ..
[pieckiel] I've got to match the decor of my home, you know. ;-)
[smj] of course the highest bidder gets firstdibs
[smj] but only four of you can be lucky bidders
[pieckiel] How will you handle tie-breakers?
[smj] ahh, goo dquestion
[smj] I recomend not to bid with round numbers :)
[smj] otherwise I'll just use time of bid.
[jboy] okay, who wants a cold one?
[pieckiel] hehe.. I figured something along those lines.
<jboy goes to plunder his parents' beer crate>
[smj] also, there are some 'extras'
[smj] available
[smj] once we get a list of winners, I'll see who is interested
in the extras
[smj] one of the pieces is a fiber controller (ethernet)
[19:41:55] paladin@sdf has joined party.
[19:42:12] dpriest@sdf has joined party.
[pieckiel] Cool.
[smj] also its *possible* to get extra disks too
[dpriest] how much more till the decomission?
[pieckiel] Disks of?
[smj] about 15 minutes
[smj] each as1200 can hold 7 SCA scsi disks
[core] *drumroll*
[paladin] um..
[smj] the ones in the auction have 4 disks
[paladin] howdy to all
[19:43:01] anthony@sdf has left party.
[pieckiel] Oh.. for some reason I was thinking software. What software
DID come with the AS1200's?
[smj] but if you need more, we can work out a deal after the
auction
[smj] oh.. you get SRM (installed) and NetBSD ;-)
[smj] the machine will boot when you get it..
[smj] You won't get any sdf stuff :)
[pieckiel] Awww... You didn't buy OpenVMS? ;)
[smj] but I'll get you a 1.6.1RC2 fresh install
[smj] oh .. sorry .. no oen VMS but it will run that.
[jboy] SRM is what exactly?
[smj] firmware
[jboy] ah
[smj] ahh 20 seconds until the 15 minute warning!
[dpriest] lo

[amcgee] Me too. I've never used it before.
[dpriest] i don't blame you, me too..
[pieckiel] That's it!
[pieckiel] What do the () mean in the :who listing?
[jboy] AFK
[smj] it means they are AFK
[amcgee] I guess you just type. I don't see any echo of my words
as I type, so that's what confused me.
[core] type ":echo"
[pieckiel] AFK....?
[dpriest] away from keyboard
[paladin] the dns entries will remain the same?
[pieckiel] duh. thx
[amcgee] Thanks. That's much better.

[19:52:38] karma8@sdf has joined party.

[tml] smj: I did
[beaker] Oh - COM down :)
[smj] I'm going to extend the shutdown :)
[oak3] thanks for making sdf a great place
[dpriest] ok!

[tml] ok
[19:53:15] halac@sdf has joined party.
[draos] ;;:
[jumex] yeah, what is the entire story there, I am curious.
<othyro@sdf returns from playing netris with jboy@sdf>
<jboy@sdf returns from playing netris with othyro@sdf>
[chesucat] Is NWLINK going to give you a refund?
[jboy] sucka!
[dpriest] yeah, so what happened anyways??
[19:53:34] nitewing@sdf has joined party.
[impurity] hey paladin
[beaker] If NWLINK thing didn't happen would we still be PNW based?
[paladin] hey impurity
[core] jboy & othyro... I'd be up for a game, anyone feels like
it?
<paladin listens patiently>
[smj] Yes.
[jboy] sure
[karma8] *sniff*
<jboy@sdf waits for core@sdf to type :netris jboy@sdf>
<core@sdf joins jboy@sdf for netris>
[smj] The reason why we had to leave seattle is because NWLINK
basically spread the rumour that we were dangerous
[19:54:20] sbc@sdf has joined party.
[smj] So no one wanted to host us.
[karma8] oh... now i rmbr
[karma8] hee hee. silly me :)
<madvani sniffs>
[smj] I tried talking to countless co-location providers
[chesucat] are we dangerous?
[tml] smj: SDF was on /. because of the NWLINK thing. I'd never
heard of SDF beofre that.
[smj] No, we are not dangerous
[tml] Now I'm an ARPA member
[jumex] I am amazed that they have that much pull.
[smj] thank you TML
[beaker] Yad think with the Seattle economy being as it is there
would be more support - oh well
[smj] Well, they scared others.
[madvani] we like dallas better anyway. it's warmer
[19:55:04] halac@sdf has left party.
[smj] they said we had this huge attack against us.
[yosefb] q
[pieckiel] Funny, because I heard of sdf from the tagline of a post
someone made on a FreeBSD mailing list recently.
[19:55:17] miz@sdf has joined party.
[madvani] which they still never proved, right?
[tml] smj: No, thank YOU. :)
[xcentric] I'm in seattle right now... the economy isn't too good
[smj] I want you all to know, the NWLINK situation is not resolved.
[dmorelli] I heard about the SDF via a search for shell account providers.
Unrelated to the NWLINK thing.
[smj] Joe Kieser has been telling people who write him letters
that it is.
[smj] it is not.
<core@sdf returns from playing netris with jboy@sdf>
<jboy@sdf returns from playing netris with core@sdf>
[19:55:47] rbook@sdf has joined party.
[core] jjjheh
[dpriest] ive been on sdf for 4 years now.
[core] hehe
[chesucat] too many protestors in Seattle, anyway
[tml] I have shell accounts all over the place, but SDF is a
cool enough idea that I really got into it.
[smj] wow.. that is cool dpriest.
<xcentric@sdf goes to play hunt>
[karma8] lol. 4 mos...
[19:56:02] draos@sdf has left party.
[karma8] i dunno what i'd do w/o sdf...
[litestar] hmmm
[smj] the Dallas site is managed y us.
[smj] sorry, by us.
[jboy] cool
[dpriest] i started on sdf, got many others, but only still keep
sdf
[smj] we own the circuits, power .. everything
[jumex] I found out about SDF because I wanted a server for email
that did IMAP. There are a surprising few.
[smj] no ISP can shutus down.
[pieckiel] Are you gonna post new pictures on the website?
<xcentric@sdf returns from playing hunt>
[smj] Yes, I will..
[oak3] wow
[19:56:51] charlene@sdf has joined party.
[tml] Dallas seems to be running smoothly.
[karma8] smj: u rich, or is it the donations?
[smj] Yes, its doing very well.
[beaker] Well, at least the original domain name fits again :)
[dmorelli] Even if there was a huge attack against the SDF, what right
does that give a provider to talk shit like that?
[smj] The move to Dallas cost us $10K (or there abouts)
[19:57:18] gnosaj@sdf has joined party.
[oak3] are we taking nwlink to court?
[smj] you are right.
[madvani] I'm really glad to hear that there are lots of bidders
for the auction
[chesucat] I came to SDF from Hotmail, Hotmail just got too spammy!
[smj] sitespecific was nice to let us host in Seattle for the
short term.
[madvani] that should help some with defraying the costs
[19:57:41] fluf@sdf has joined party.
[jboy] are you adding "Don't mess with Texas" to the AUP?
[smj] They let us stay for free.
[madvani] right?
[impurity] damn, its croud ij here=)
[miz] HELP
[gnosaj] who
[rbook] SMJ, did you have to go to Dallas for this?
[smj] Yes, if you want one of the AS1200s, please run 'auction'
on the new Dallas site :)
[19:58:17] drdvp@sdf has joined party.
[beaker] How much of the 10K did you have to cover (if U don't mind
me asking)?
[core] so will you now be living in Dallas, smj?
[19:58:19] dudzus@sdf has joined party.

[smj] the EFF feels our rights have been violated.
[beaker] Just don't feed the lawyers too much, eh ;)
[oak3] who are they?
[smj] The AS1200s?
[jboy] do you need members to contact the EFF?
[oak3] ok

<othyro@sdf joins jboy@sdf for netris>
[pieckiel] hDid you ask them for money? :)

[smj] they just need us to tell them our rights were violated
[pieckiel] That's cool.
[tml] Well, that's god.
[smj] ISP terminates customer because of DDoS
[tml] s/go/goo/
<com gives party to andre@sdf>
[smj] so they set a prescedent that if you get DDoSed, you will
get terminated.
[oak3] alleged DDos

[smj] there was a 5 days span that we were offline.
[smj] 30-Jan to 5-Feb

[tml] I'm not sure how much voice I'd have, since I only joined
AFTER we were back up. :)
[karma8] ....i had to do schoolwork instead of connecting to sdf.
yech!
[dpriest] that completely screwed me..
[jboy] people from my university had to access my webspace on
sdf for review materials for an exam

the long term, and when I eventually get a better job, you
