[01:32:08] <chromas> If you don't have time to play with old PCs, connect them to Gemini and have it play with them for you :D
[01:33:41] <chromas> hm, systemd's still here. It's on the same box I'm on. I guess it's just better than me

[16:52:32] <Ingar> site is loading extremely slow
[16:53:02] <Ingar> rather, site is loading only half
[16:53:56] <fab23> Ingar: loads normaly for me
[17:22:41] <Ingar> I blame my ISP's webcache
[17:22:52] <Ingar> working again now
[17:27:41] <fab23> Ingar: does your ISP have a forced webcache?
[17:28:29] <Ingar> I think they do, just guessing though
[17:29:55] <fab23> Ingar: but if you are not forced to use a special Root CA certificate, they should not be able to break open TLS (HTTPS) connection
[17:34:11] <Ingar> good point
[17:34:40] <Ingar> maybe they lost their default route to soylentnews
[17:34:51] <fab23> maybe
[17:35:39] <Ingar> looking at the large amount of ARP traffic they are dumping on my LAN, I just assume they're incompetent
[17:36:34] <fab23> Ingar: do you have fiber or cable (TV cable)?
[17:37:00] <Ingar> cable
[17:37:24] <fab23> ah, there the WAN side usually is a larger LAN, so broadcast is normal
[17:37:57] <Ingar> yes, but I do not expect those on my LAN
[17:38:19] <Ingar> e.g. my desktop currently is getting about 50 arp who-has/sec for external addresses
[17:38:25] <fab23> especially if the cable modem is configured as bridge and not router, then you see the traffic on your systems
[17:38:44] <fab23> hm strange yes
[17:39:00] <Ingar> I have it in bridge now, but it only bridges a specific MAC
[17:39:23] <Ingar> but I got the arp deluge before
[17:39:49] <fab23> but it can not avoid to also show you all the who-has requests
[17:40:52] <Ingar> my bsd router doesn't forward arp to the inside
[17:41:13] <Ingar> cable modem magik, I assume ?
[17:41:40] <Ingar> (I admit, I have no clue how those actually work)
[17:42:04] <fab23> yes, as far as I have seen, cable networks are messy
[17:42:26] <Ingar> that I totally agree with :-D
[17:43:00] <Ingar> what if I'd start answering them
[17:43:13] <Ingar> I mean, they sent them to me, it would only be polite to answer them
[17:43:41] <fab23> then you get the traffic for that IP address
[17:45:27] <Ingar> I'll forward it to soylentnews
[17:47:07] <fab23> 🙀
