Logbook of Captain Emiliano Bruni

Okay that I used to write stupid things but this return receipt to my mail is almost a record

I can not even console ourselves that at least has been accessed

As already in 2007 and, unlike the 2008 where I just forgot to make you good wishes, Recycling plants, the electronic greeting card sent by Micso to all its customers

point to wish the readers of this little blog a serene and happy Christmas.

I could not build a greeting card more beautiful than that achieved by Pierluigi, our graph of confidence

And now also the video theme beccatevi

And 'some' of days that it rains hard here and you know, with the rain we get wet. But when the rain invades computer systems, then they are suffering, as seems to have happened to our user writes.

For me, before such drastic action such as changing your address, I would propose to first apply a waterproofing product on the mailbox. Sometimes a solution of this type helps to ward off troublesome leaks.

Of course you can always change your mind, but changed dramatically in the space of ten minutes is almost like the Guinness Book of World Records.

That's what comes to hand Micso by a user who, at this point not know if it is unhappy, bored or whatever.

Before mail:

Ok, spend 10 minutes

Ok, someone tell me what happened?

In MICS, a few times, I read some things that leave me speechless to say the least as the notice listed below:

Except that peismecher not written just like a coffee but I bet that this "family member" has a cell phone. True?

Yesterday brief but intense intervention on the roof of the tank (piezometric tower) of the AC in Pescara. Between a downpour of rain and hail and a remake of the entire distribution system WADSL the tank have also been able to make me a picture

but above all to make a short video of the impressive flow of water that reached the top of the tower falls, the effect of gravity on a pipe about 2 feet in diameter down all 30 feet of tower height.

Micso The network continues to grow and so it is time for an upgrade to network infrastructure posted over six months ago.

The map below, updated to now show the network topology Micso WADSL in Abruzzo and neighboring areas.

Most of the sections is made through radio and some sections are on fiber-optic backbone.

Note the many rings of redundancy that makes the network very robust and allows it to be functional even if the drop is also more backbone.

Some of you may remember the story of the beginning of the year, told partly in the comments of my post, which saw the main myself and the staff Micso while, in some ways tragic, acquisition Quip and how, in seven days , we have succeeded, practically from scratch, to revive an Internet Service Provider.

The train of that story was that we had left on his back a number of servers that define obsolete was a mere euphemism.

On this server mounted on a rack, continues to run services, websites, mail client and more, during the emergency phase, we were unable to migrate on our server.

But today, we can finally say goodbye to the cupboard rack that was Quip, the last vestige of a time of suffering now history.

As you can see from the photo below

the joy is palpable on the faces of all the men arrived at the bedside of the dinosaur now defunct.

A proper thank-you goes to the national sauce, to Pablo, the Norm, eVinz, Piergrafico and everyone else for being slow to ensuring that all customers Quip can live on machines (and above all operating systems ) Worthy of the name.

Many people did not believe their luck when, in 2003, was introduced the possibility to activate ADSL on the data cable that is an ADSL on a line where there was no active phone users.

On this line, therefore, no fixed fee was due to Telecom and the only one invoice was the only ADSL service to be provided, inter alia, to an ADSL operator who could obviously not be Telecom.

And when you add the ability of VoIP here that could finally have a phone attached ADSL with paying only the consumption of these services without additional fixed fees.

But, like all the little beautiful things in Italy, this opportunity was short lived. And so it was that, in 2006, after realizing the loss of customers who migrate from ADSL to those on the telephone wire data cable, Telecom managed to push through an unconvincing as absurd fees again on the data cable. Over 10 euros a month as a justified amount for recovery of costs of maintenance of the lines.

A canon that I personally was and am still totally unfair, and I am not alone in his thinking.

But now, in addition to also give the joke. From 15 June 2009 Telecom will increase the rent by more than one euro a month. Here is the letter that announces the increase of the unjust pence.

What to say? There is no threshold for all'ingordigia.

Having found this beautiful map of the Internet I decided to modify it slightly to see where the Micso within the address space of IPv4 Internet.

This is what they have gone outside.

As in the original map is shown the IPv4 address space while preserving the grouping of regions assigned to different states and / or provider. The 256 numbers represent the first octet (255.0.0.0) of each IP address. Green spaces are not allocated blocks on the date of 2006.

The MICS, as we see, has addresses in the region 195.0.0.0 / 8 and 212.0.0.0 / 8.
