@GossiTheDog @ssamulczyk The outage was caused by Cloudflare WITHDRAWING the announcement. Read that correctly.

@GossiTheDog @ssamulczyk 1. TATA COMM and TCS are separate companies.
2. Cloudflare withdrew both 1.1.1.0/24 and 1.0.0.0/24 announcements due to an unknown reason.

3. The BGP hijack you see is most likely due to a downstream customer of AS4755. So the outage **isn't caused by TATA** it is caused by Cloudflare themselves.

4. TATA's Tier1 ASN AS6453 filters invalid ROAs but their domestic AS4755 doesn't.

Peak of 2.68G observed on AJL mirror node :)

I'd like to announce that one more mirror node for mirror.albony.in is on its way (HYD) the server has already been arranged but I require assistance to purchase the storage drives.

I haven't had time to make the post for fundraiser. So making this small post.

#NewYear2025

Based upon mirror traffic analysis, looks like people are celebrating diwali away from their computers :P
traffic is nearly half today.

@nuintari @undead well... telnet existed

@GossiTheDog Interesting, didn't know that. Why exactly is that required?
And does the DNS server run on the domain controller itself?

@GossiTheDog People use windows to host DNS SERVERS?
That's news to me..

@killyourfm As in revenue from the farm? I'd say it's livable. We currently have a guy that works there and we go check every week or so. But it's certainly not enough to live peacefully (if you know what I mean)

If you assume that by the time you retire you have enough money (and you can live off interest from bank / have shares etc.) then the land is certainly enough.

(Ours is an orange farm)

@killyourfm I do have a small 3 acre farm that my dad bought around a decade ago, gets quite decent LTE coverage (haven't tested for 5G)

@killyourfm I think that's literally everyone in tech
