drbrain, : my desktops have 4 lcd's each, trying to cut back and detox ya know ;)
<drbrain>
dwradcliffe: ☹ ☹ ☹
<kseifried>
ah apply makes one. problem solved
<drbrain>
kseifried: I've got a MBP with two ports and no external thunderbolt display, so I don't have this problem
<kseifried>
mm apple makes usb-ethermet, but when you buy the air online they only show the thunderbolt one
<kseifried>
that or i'm old and blind
<drbrain>
likely the former
* kseifried
wabves his cane around
<drbrain>
I would bet the usb-ethernet adapters are old stock as (I think) their recent models all have the thunderbolt port
<kseifried>
yah
<kseifried>
fine by me
<kseifried>
anything will be faster than wifi
<drbrain>
what is your typical bulk-transfer speed for wifi?
<drbrain>
my friends tell me I have anomalously high speeds at 10-14MB/s on 802.11n
<kseifried>
no lue
<kseifried>
I only ever use it for my ipad/iphone
<kseifried>
last place I lived I could see 90+ wifi networks
<kseifried>
so interference was a bit of an issue
* drbrain
nods
<drbrain>
one of these people is my neighbor, so we have similar interference profiles
<kseifried>
here it loads web pages fine....
<kseifried>
basically I don't want to have to care/think about it. gigabit ethernet ftw
* kseifried
is old and cranky
<drbrain>
yeah
<drbrain>
for first-time backups I plug in the laptop over ethernet
<drbrain>
after that I don't have to worry about speed so much

kseifried: fwiw, apple doesn't highlight the USB ethernet adapter because it's really slow
<indirect>
drbrain: I also get 10-14MB/sec on 802.11n. I guess we're in lucky places? or maybe most people don't set their n routers to 5ghz only...
yashshah- has joined #rubygems
<kseifried>
indirect, how slow?
<indirect>
kseifried: under 100mbits, iirc
mockra has joined #rubygems
<indirect>
my thunderbolt ethernet adapter actually does 1gbps, but I remember reading about people trying to use the usb adapter and getting really upset that they weren't even getting the full claimed 100mbits out of it
<drbrain>
indirect: maybe
<kseifried>
faster than wifi
<indirect>
drbrain: that was the single thing that made it fast for me… 5ghz only, and I consistently get 10-14MB/s, 5+2.4 and it drops down to around 5-8MB/s
<indirect>
kseifried: unless you have 5ghz 802.11n :)
<drbrain>
indirect: I have both enabled on the airport, but my machines all seem to prefer 5GHz
kgrz has joined #rubygems
<indirect>
oh… I bet you have an airport base station that is less than five years old
<indirect>
those have separate antennas for 5ghz and 2.4ghz
<indirect>
mine only has one antenna

I need to redo my IT once I finish renovating my office
<drbrain>
indirect: I do
<indirect>
that explains how you can get the full 5ghz speed while having 2.4ghz turned on :)
dvu has joined #rubygems
<drbrain>
the other thing people do wrong is have an Airport Express on the same network set to extend a network
<drbrain>
so you end up with an extra hop going through the express
<indirect>
oh yeah, that's no good. run ethernet to your extenders :P

is there any reason why 'bundle install' would time out trying to fetch the source index from http://rubygems.org ?

web site looks up, but pings also fail from two different networks

I eventually installed gems via 'gem install'which worked, and 'bundle install' then worked because the gems were local.... surprised that 'bundle install' wasn't able to fetch the same gems
