    Guilfest 2024

    Looks like Bob has disappeared from the lineup?
  2. Was that quote attributed to to the Kings proctologist?
  3. Just sorted National Express straight outta Heathrow on the Wednesday at 9am. :))

    England at Glasto

    Put the game on one channel of the silent disco, then sit back and watch the mayhem.
  5. Best explanation so far! Thanks. Fwiw, I think see tickets should put out a statement saying that tickets obtained via unauthorized access may be canceled as a warning. I'm not suggesting that any of this year's tickets should actually be canceled, but I don't think we should condone an escalating technical game of cat and mouse.
  6. i think cookies contain session persistence info, which makes your connection sticky to a particular ticket server. maybe if you use the hack, you need to clear your cookies to force a connection to the unloaded ticket servers. perhaps someone who worked for see tickets has figured this out.
  7. Maybe it is the availability of these 'hospitality tickets' that could change the face of the festival, particularly if they include access to areas not normally available to mortals? Rather than the expanded glamping per-se. In my view, one of the great levelers is the ticket arrangements, having some tickets available to the highest bidder feels a bit wrong, and creates a two tier system.
  8. What I've not really understood is the economics around the festival tickets that the off site glamping include with their accomodation. Where do these tickets come from, and how are they official when mortals have to go to see-tickets for theirs?
  9. Defo f'ed up the Oracle 11g update for encryption at rest.
  10. I've got another 2 weeks to try not to fritter away the deposit/coach money that is burning a hole in my bank account.
  11. I was thinking along the same lines. I could get a couple of the group to hit the Thursday button, and the rest try for Wednesday. This year was my first time going on Wednesday, and I loved it.
  12. Comments suggest the Wednesday tickets are in demand, maybe Ill have a better change hitting the right hand side of the screen and going for Thursday from the start. I'm afraid that if I wait till Wednesday is sold out, my chances of getting a Thursday will be massively reduced. Nerves!
  13. I'm not an expert, but I suspect that your house only has one router, which is the box connected to the telephone line/fibre/coax coming into your house. The other boxes are access points to the WiFi to improve connectivity. Imho the hit rate is specific to each users connection, rather than the house, but this is just my view.
  14. I think Https (TLS) multiplexes/tunnels common connections to the same destination, so multiple tabs in the same instance of browser will be subject to a single throttle. What has made me smile, the company that makes the load balancers for most of the internet, and probably is where the throttle is enforced is called 'F5'. Coincidence or are they sadists?
  15. I think each local connection is assigned a port by your router. What see tickets get is your nat address and this port number so it can return data to the correct user or process. I'd suspect any throttling is based on this socket address. Hence multiple users sharing them same campus connection should not be subject to a group throttle.

    2023 New Music

    Went to see Bex Burch last night, this is so far from my usual comfort zone. Compelling to watch and listen though. Encore was a cover of Laurie Anderson's O Superman. PXL_20231020_203414618.mp4

    REN

    Hi Ren is a devastating track. I truly hope he recovers, not so I can see him live (which I love), but just so he can make more music.
  18. Mike Skinner/The Streets launching Darker the Shadow.. absolutely slaying it this evening.
