#DNS C #root server is not available from German DTAG #Telekom network, see https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/160469688
The C root server is from #Cogent . Is that again some Telekom-Cogent rendevous?

Looks like #Cogent made a typo and paths show 174 1 174 :)

#BGP

The #NANOG mailing list discussed an outage of #Cogent in #Texas. The company's update: "This is being caused by multiple fiber cuts".

Must be lots of stuff going on, if multiple fiber cuts appeared at the same time. Anyone ideas what could have caused it?

Proxy Services Feast on Ukraine’s IP Address Exodus – Krebs on Security

Spent a full week trying to get answers from #Cogent about what #T5 is doing with power maintenance & setting up our dual feed power.
Me: Are you supplying the PDUs?
Them...
Them...
Them the day before: No. You are.
Me: YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!
Scramble scramble FOUND!
Me: You'll be there to hook it up.
Them: No. You're doing that.
Me: So i have authorization to lift the floor & energize our PDUs?
Them: Yes, but you dont need to, because you are on the line that isnt going down.

That was special. Having to scramble to bring down a hundred virtual machines, then the hardware, right in the middle of restoring from backups. Thanks #Cogent, you lying, incompetent, fucking shitbags. Let me tell you the odds we renew our contract. Zero, and sub-zero. Did we save money on your Kmart pricing? Well, the old saying is true, there's nothing more expensive than a great deal. #sysadmin
#sysadmin weekend from hell.
Thanks #Cogent. Thanks for telling us the "testing" which "shouldn't affect our colo service" was actually a planned power outage that your operations people KNEW would bring down all hardware in our racks on a Friday evening.
Oh! And thanks again, for sending out an all clear on Friday night & again on Saturday, then Sunday, while in hour 30 of restoring our entire infrastructure, being told randomly by a contractor the power was going down AGAIN in 15 minutes.

Is it reprehensible to offer #Cogent Paid #Peering as a Non-Profit #network / #Freifunk AS

80 cents / Mbit/s with 10G Flat is fair, isn't it?

The #bigCorp media has been doing that for him for years. They usually dont play #tRump clips verbatim. they paraphrase him so that he sounds more reasonable.
They are cleaning up his speech.

That is why he can claim that, it his normal #projection and #confession .
It bothers him that it is not necessary for VP #Harris. She speaks in complete sentences and can make a #cogent argument. (Appealing to the intellect or powers of reasoning; convincing: synonym: valid.
"a cogent argument.")
