schestowitz__As it stands, my pull request for ownCloud calendar link-sharing sits there for months even though it's a highly requested feature. Why? Because the devs decided to re-write the GUI again, so there's no easy way to merge it.Oct 24 06:56

schestowitzI'd see it slightly different:Oct 25 20:17
schestowitzmedia props up "Ebola" with fear to push their page views / click-rates as first interest. While doing so they induce phobia against blacks as a side effect.

schestowitz"Oct 25 20:19
schestowitzone point for the USSR is that they did their propagandha more on a 'we are good' instead of a 'they are bad' basis. They did a lot of things to 'prove the superiority of their society', while the other side did lean more towards 'they are destroying our society' only implying that it was good the way it was.Oct 25 20:19
schestowitzOf course, hunting down 'ill elements' should be much less work in a totalitarian state, it's kind of interesting how russia+ seems to have felt the need to 'prove' something, while the west seemed to have a more self-esteemed view of the situation.Oct 25 20:19
schestowitzyeah, and that's all history, and we really should have gone by this one by now, since it's not much more than cumbersome cultural bias we carry around. I personally consider communism proven as a failure - counting how many communist countries had to abbandon that concept within the last 60 years compared to how many capitalist 'countries' had to similar.Oct 25 20:19

schestowitz[19:25] <schestowitz> I was there and saw it, but didn't react fast enoughOct 25 22:52
schestowitz[19:40] <schestowitz> If the VM died, maybe adding core/RAM would help make it more durable like techrights?Oct 25 22:52
schestowitz[21:52] <schestowitz> I think that the attacker might derive great pleasure from a downtime this long. I don't think there's anything I can do without hypervisor access, so I'll just wait till you get back homeOct 25 22:52
schestowitz[22:00] <tessier> Hello.Oct 25 23:14
schestowitz[22:01] <tessier> Yes, I see the server ran out of swap.Oct 25 23:14
schestowitz[22:01] <tessier> Looks like the VM has not died. But I will look into adding RAM.Oct 25 23:14
schestowitz[22:07] <schestowitz> thanks so much :-)Oct 25 23:14
schestowitz[22:08] <schestowitz> I did see it but didn't react fast enough because the attack was pretty intenseOct 25 23:14

schestowitz[22:41] <schestowitz> oh...Oct 25 23:57

schestowitz[22:44] <tessier> Weird. There isn't another mysql running. Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:45] <schestowitz> maybe a lock file?Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:46] <schestowitz> it's a good thing it's just the program and not the DB. I opened ip latest google cache of the front page and it's a tad out of dateOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> Just had to rm the socket file.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> Weird. I've never seen mysql have a problem with that before.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:46] <schestowitz> :-)Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> Read the init script to find the condition that was causing that message to be produced.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> So how were they able to DDoS the machine? Apparently fail2ban wasn't effective in this case.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:47] <schestowitz> no, there was another attack earlier todayOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:47] <schestowitz> Rianne stopped it, she saw the load risingOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:47] <schestowitz> I think swap ran out laterOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:48] <schestowitz> I usually drain out the httpd processes before swap starts taking new onesOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:49] <tessier> I need to reboot tuxmachines.org once more to upgrade the RAM.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:49] <tessier> It should come back much faster this time with the mysql issue fixed.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:50] <schestowitz> thanks, that would be greatOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:50] <tessier> I need to upgrade the physical RAM in this server. It's only got 32G at the moment. We'll put 192G in it in the near future and greatly increase varnish and RAM available for techrights and tuxmachines.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:51] <schestowitz> we'll help pay for it, our annual billing I think is in January or thereabouts, we'll increase the paymentsOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:54] <schestowitz> another Lockheed Martin Corporation IP has just been blockedOct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:55] <schestowitz> about a quarter of them was Lockheed Martin Corporation at early stages, now it's maybe 1 in 6Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:56] <schestowitz> many may not be getting banned because they don't know on it hard enough. I very much doubt Lockheed Martin Corporation staff surf these sites from work, so clearly zombie PCs. Not much of national security then from Lockheed Martin Corporation....Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:56] <tessier> I was just discussing defense contractor security with my dad today at lunch. It's not pretty.Oct 25 23:57
schestowitz[22:57] <schestowitz> I criticise drone strikes in techrights, but I very much doubt that's in any way related to attacks on sitesOct 25 23:57

schestowitz__If #ownCloud devs focus on development of stable, well-written software stack instead of bumping the version number every time up and re-writing the GUI (still without theming support!), it would be both easier to maintain, and less problematic for ownCloud devs.Oct 24 05:56
schestowitz__As it stands, my pull request for ownCloud calendar link-sharing sits there for months even though it's a highly requested feature. Why? Because the devs decided to re-write the GUI again, so there's no easy way to merge it.Oct 24 05:57
schestowitz__And because there is no theming support, GUI is bolted to the back-end (and vice-versa), there is no separation of business and presentation layers to speak of.Oct 24 05:57

schestowitzI'd see it slightly different:Oct 25 19:17
schestowitzmedia props up "Ebola" with fear to push their page views / click-rates as first interest. While doing so they induce phobia against blacks as a side effect. It is a fact that people in general aren't interested in what is going on in Africa as long as it doesn't affect their daily life. Leading causes of death in Africa.

schestowitz"Oct 25 19:19
schestowitzone point for the USSR is that they did their propagandha more on a 'we are good' instead of a 'they are bad' basis. They did a lot of things to 'prove the superiority of their society', while the other side did lean more towards 'they are destroying our society' only implying that it was good the way it was.Oct 25 19:19
schestowitzOf course, hunting down 'ill elements' should be much less work in a totalitarian state, it's kind of interesting how russia+ seems to have felt the need to 'prove' something, while the west seemed to have a more self-esteemed view of the situation.Oct 25 19:19
schestowitzyeah, and that's all history, and we really should have gone by this one by now, since it's not much more than cumbersome cultural bias we carry around. I personally consider communism proven as a failure - counting how many communist countries had to abbandon that concept within the last 60 years compared to how many capitalist 'countries' had to similar.Oct 25 19:20

schestowitz"I have been wondering: why US people love so much the US and do not move elsewhere? I'm not saying Banana Republic is better, but there are enough better countries than the US to move. They might not even need to learn another language, there is a lot of English speakers in the West, and I imagine getting a visa having a US passport would be easier that having a Banana Republic passport."Oct 25 19:41

schestowitz[19:24] <schestowitz> I think the DDOS downed tuxmachinesOct 25 21:52
schestowitz[19:24] <schestowitz> ssh: connect to host 10.0.2.21 port 22: No route to hostOct 25 21:52
schestowitz[19:25] <schestowitz> I was there and saw it, but didn't react fast enoughOct 25 21:52
schestowitz[19:40] <schestowitz> If the VM died, maybe adding core/RAM would help make it more durable like techrights?Oct 25 21:52
schestowitz[21:52] <schestowitz> I think that the attacker might derive great pleasure from a downtime this long. I don't think there's anything I can do without hypervisor access, so I'll just wait till you get back homeOct 25 21:52
schestowitz[22:00] <tessier> Hello.Oct 25 22:14
schestowitz[22:01] <tessier> Yes, I see the server ran out of swap.Oct 25 22:14
schestowitz[22:01] <tessier> Looks like the VM has not died. But I will look into adding RAM.Oct 25 22:14
schestowitz[22:07] <schestowitz> thanks so much :-)Oct 25 22:14
schestowitz[22:08] <schestowitz> I did see it but didn't react fast enough because the attack was pretty intenseOct 25 22:15

schestowitzpopular among enemies with Windows botnets....Oct 25 22:17
schestowitz[22:19] <tessier> Wait, I was looking at techrights. tuxmachines is still having issues it seemsOct 25 22:30
schestowitz[22:19] <schestowitz> yes, only tuxmachines :-)Oct 25 22:30
schestowitz[22:19] <tessier> I think we need to reboot the machine. It looks completely wedged.Oct 25 22:30
schestowitz[22:19] <tessier> Working on it...Oct 25 22:30
schestowitz[22:19] <schestowitz> maybe needs more resources, the site is growing tooOct 25 22:30
schestowitz[22:19] <schestowitz> We'll pay for thatOct 25 22:30
*freedomrun has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Oct 25 22:56
schestowitz[22:36] <schestowitz> I see it's back up :-)Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:36] <schestowitz> the server, not apache (yet)Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:40] <schestowitz> or mysqldOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:41] <schestowitz> maybe the DB can be put on the TR server and accessed remotely?Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:41] <tessier> mysql seems to be having trouble startingOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:41] <schestowitz> oh...Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:42] <schestowitz> is it mysql itself or the DB?Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:42] <schestowitz> My last backup is 16 hours oldOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:44] <tessier> Another MySQL daemon already running with the same unix socket.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:44] <tessier> Starting mysqld:  [FAILED]Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:44] <tessier> Weird. There isn't another mysql running. Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:45] <schestowitz> maybe a lock file?Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:46] <schestowitz> it's a good thing it's just the program and not the DB. I opened ip latest google cache of the front page and it's a tad out of dateOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> Just had to rm the socket file.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> Weird. I've never seen mysql have a problem with that before.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:46] <schestowitz> :-)Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> Read the init script to find the condition that was causing that message to be produced.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:46] <tessier> So how were they able to DDoS the machine? Apparently fail2ban wasn't effective in this case.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:47] <schestowitz> no, there was another attack earlier todayOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:47] <schestowitz> Rianne stopped it, she saw the load risingOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:47] <schestowitz> I think swap ran out laterOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:48] <schestowitz> I usually drain out the httpd processes before swap starts taking new onesOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:49] <tessier> I need to reboot tuxmachines.org once more to upgrade the RAM.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:49] <tessier> It should come back much faster this time with the mysql issue fixed.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:50] <schestowitz> thanks, that would be greatOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:50] <tessier> I need to upgrade the physical RAM in this server. It's only got 32G at the moment. We'll put 192G in it in the near future and greatly increase varnish and RAM available for techrights and tuxmachines.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:51] <schestowitz> we'll help pay for it, our annual billing I think is in January or thereabouts, we'll increase the paymentsOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:54] <schestowitz> another Lockheed Martin Corporation IP has just been blockedOct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:55] <schestowitz> about a quarter of them was Lockheed Martin Corporation at early stages, now it's maybe 1 in 6Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:56] <schestowitz> many may not be getting banned because they don't know on it hard enough. I very much doubt Lockheed Martin Corporation staff surf these sites from work, so clearly zombie PCs. Not much of national security then from Lockheed Martin Corporation....Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:56] <tessier> I was just discussing defense contractor security with my dad today at lunch. It's not pretty.Oct 25 22:57
schestowitz[22:57] <schestowitz> I criticise drone strikes in techrights, but I very much doubt that's in any way related to attacks on sitesOct 25 22:58
schestowitz[22:59] <tessier> tuxmachines is back up btw.Oct 25 23:08
schestowitz[22:59] <schestowitz> thanks, I've just noticed and resumed posting new stories :-)Oct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:00] <tessier> Great. Sorry for the downtime. We'll keep incrementally increasing or defenses until it is rock solid. Next step is a big RAM upgrade. I'll probably setup a dedicated varnish cluster since it has been so useful.Oct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:00] <tessier> The VM on which varnish is currently running is quite old and needs to get services migrated off of it anyway.Oct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:00] <schestowitz> it helps a huge dealOct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:00] <schestowitz> reducing load on the DBOct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:00] <schestowitz> we use it a lot at workOct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:01] <schestowitz> we support london.gov and food.gov (UK)Oct 25 23:08
schestowitz[23:01] <tessier> NiceOct 25 23:08
