[04:11:37] YuviPanda|zzz: yeah everything worked out. again sorry for going off half-cocked. i read the bottom part of your .bash_history and didn't look at the full context. you definitely didn't harm anything. thanks for trying to help. :) [11:16:31] Morning [11:16:41] upload.wikimedia.org seems to be excessively laggy [11:17:14] Also I'm seeing a lot mmore download bandwidth used then should be [11:17:22] (from my end) [11:17:29] Time to check your servers people? [11:18:22] I don't understand anything you just said. [11:18:46] Maybe he's saying that his browser is no longer caching upload.wm.o resources? [11:20:23] (it should be caching that as I have the standard firefox settings) [11:20:51] Running the usual virus scans and anti-malware [11:21:30] * twkozlowski prompts Nemo_bis to run the usual virus scans on his desktop [11:22:39] The alternative is that somethings iffy with thumbnailing as that's eaten bandwidth before [11:23:12] (And I have my suspicions that the seemingly large bandwidth use and poor performance are related.) [11:24:19] I note I'm also having trouble with BBC News [11:24:30] (So it might be a backbone issue) [11:24:59] twkozlowski: I've just washed my desktop; maybe I should use a UV lamp though [11:25:00] Or you might have the NSA on your back. Watch out! [11:25:17] HE.net was having problems an hour ago [11:25:48] archive.org has been briefly down for those passing via Ashburn [11:26:24] Ah. [11:26:35] But quite why that would affect BBC news I don't know [11:27:04] (given that both it and me are UK based... and shouldn't need to do a US transit) [11:27:33] HE.net is everywhere; but just speculating, you should give us a "traceroute upload.wikimedia.org" if you don't just want to chat :) [11:28:08] BBC used to use Akamei, so it doesn't mean all their servers are UK-based [11:28:13] just as ours are not all US-based [11:29:29] OK [11:29:33] Did a traceroute [11:29:41] It's saying something about iffy DNS [11:30:30] (Somewhere in Init7's network - (They are Swiss) [11:31:14] Just skulking after yesterday's beating from France, I suspect [11:31:23] ROFl [13:25:22] Is there anyway for someone to "turn off" a gadget using the gadget? Like an api call or something? [13:26:25] Is it on the E:Gadgets page? I can't find it. [13:26:44] Why would it be there [13:26:57] All preferences can be changed via API [13:27:57] Wouldn't preferences directly related to the gadgets extension be on the documentation page for it? [13:28:40] I'll dig through the API docs some more then. Thanks Nemo_bis [13:28:54] !mw Api:Options [13:29:05] goddammit i keep forgetting the bot is broken here [13:29:29] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Options [13:29:49] the preferences that toggle gadgets are names, inconceivably, "gadget-" :D [13:29:52] are named* [14:24:44] can I from Special:OAuthListConsumers go to the tool itself to see how it works and enable it then? or where I can find a full list of oauth tools? [14:25:07] some are useful and good to switch on but it seems to be not easy to find them all [15:29:47] has somebody responded me while i was disconnected? [15:30:34] no [21:26:53] So [21:26:56] What broke? [21:27:04] Got some very lagged performance earlier [21:27:14] (And it seems it wasn;t just Wikipedia) [21:38:21] Qcoder00, hmm... apparently a media storage backend server locked up earlier and had to be restarted, but I see nothing else in SAL for today [21:39:56] Was hearing something about some bacbone DNS stuff being off [21:40:07] (Not WMF but major Tier stuff..) [21:40:19] Oh, right. Don't know. [21:44:34] Qcoder00, I'd be interested to know what that's about if you find anything [21:57:03] I'll wait for the film at 11 [21:57:04] ;)
