[05:28:22] <inz> FatPhil, we got one measly lightning. I guess the earlier ones were some "radar ghosts" (i.e. probably too few observation points)

[05:49:29] <FatPhil> inz: looks like the office router lost power at 2am, so I guess we had another brownout there due to something. I don't remember hearing any storms at that point though.
[05:50:10] <inz> How much precious uptime did you lose?
[05:51:18] <FatPhil> the server there's fine. maybe it was the ISP that had trouble instead!
[05:51:49] <FatPhil> $ uptime
[05:51:50] <FatPhil> 08:51:41 up 956 days, 10:33, 25 users, load average: 0.23, 0.21, 0.18
[05:52:46] <janrinok> I seem to recall you have had problems with your ISP repeatedly from time to time. The brownout sounds the most likely culprit and I assume that they do not use any form of backup power.
[05:53:13] <inz> Woop, party in 44 days
[05:54:06] <FatPhil> the large local ISP was bought up by one of the large national ISPs about 4 years ago, and things have been crap in almost every way since.
[05:55:07] <FatPhil> google and yahoo stopped accepting our outgoing SMTP - via the ISP's relay - and we couldn't find anyone in tech support who knew what SMTP or a relay was.
[05:55:17] <FatPhil> that was about 2 weeks ago.
[05:55:43] <FatPhil> the ISP's advice: "just use google mail instead".
[05:56:16] <inz> "The x is bought up by X, x becomes crap" seems to be a recurring pattern
[05:56:43] <inz> I had my server on spam blacklists for a while at one point.
[05:57:13] <FatPhil> It's the closest I've seen my g/f get to shouting down the phone at anyone, ever. "No, it's clear that you do not understand what the problem is, can you please put me in contact with somene who can provide actual tecnical support".
[05:57:29] <inz> After that I removed phpBB (and the backdoor that was uploaded through it), and things slowly got back to normal.
[05:58:11] <inz> Re: shouting at people; gotta contact posti.
[05:58:16] <FatPhil> That's the first line I heard - they finally picked up the phone after half an hour of queuing whilst she was walking to lunch.
[06:00:30] <inz> Fighting with the first line of defence can be pretty frustrating.
[06:01:38] <FatPhil> I think I heard her say the same thing about 5 times.
[06:02:04] <inz> "Nope, this script doesn't work, let's try the next one"
[06:03:32] <FatPhil> I think only a tiny proportion of their customers want to host their own SMTP servers.
[06:03:40] <FatPhil> They don't even have a script.

[06:04:02] <FatPhil> I found *3 different* relay addresses on their webpage
[06:04:04] <inz> (in fairness, it's a good thing not everyone runs their own SMTP)

[06:21:21] <FatPhil> According to nasa: "Electromagnetic radiation is a type of energy that is commonly known as light. " -- saywhaaaat!?!??!
[06:22:31] <FatPhil> and according to wackypedia: "radiometry gives the entire optical radiation spectrum, while photometry is limited to the visible spectrum". [insert confused look emoji here]
[06:22:53] <FatPhil> have "optical" and "light" changed meaning whilst I was asleep.
[06:26:56] <inz> You need to stop sleeping.

[07:34:17] <inz> Oh, I didn't realise the Trumpbekistians can't even spell defence.
[07:52:29] <FatPhil> Noah Webster's to blame. However, the implementation was never completed, so the language is even more inconsistent than before he started.
[08:03:13] <FatPhil> and it was one of his more idiotic suggestions anyway, there are way more -ce's than -se's, it would have made more sense to fix the -se's if you demand consistency
