BingoBoingo: No one does outside of some retards. There's a whole bunch of cancer that made it in print that might as well come off because... Really?
mp_en_viaje: in unrelated news, after week+ of cluelesness i finally comprehended the fucking intended usage of my new cam (as it happens, by watching teeny monkey at work) -- the rabatable viewport IS THERE SO YOU CAN TAKE YOUR OWN PICTURE
diana_coman: it's a romanian example of applying eu rules I suppose; I guess I'll have to write-it up as it's too surreal, only the old italian-embassy experience beats it.
mp_en_viaje: you're not at liberty to remove my ifs as to best serve, again, your self-image.
asciilifeform: fwiw mp_en_viaje made it quite clear in june '19 that he intends to close snsa. and this was part of the reason why i set up private rack, it will host phuctor in-exile, asciilifeform's www, and anyone else who has the courage and dun insist on marionette control of the entire thing simply as condition of hosting a box or 2.
asciilifeform: anyways after BingoBoingo counts , i'ma post signed text where mp_en_viaje asked, so long as he gives his word that will actually read it.
mp_en_viaje: write an item, "this is what s.nsa owns in my hands as things stand", puybluish it , in one piece, somewhere you can answer for being accesdsible in a few weeks and there you go.
mp_en_viaje: why the hell does everything with you haver to be done soddily, half way, ill considered, as best fits immanture momentary convenience and so on ?
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: do you want this as a signed text ?
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: there are 4 FG here; 12 spare analogue boards. at piz there is a http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2018-02-05#1781749 , a http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2018-02-05#1781753 , and 34 FG (that were sold to piz, and i have still nfi whether mp_en_viaje wanted'em back physically or as coin.) there also were 4 x 256GB mostly spent ssds, they are in the mail and i've nfi whether will see'em again, neither correo.co
asciilifeform: moar alive nao than ever. as for mp_en_viaje , plox to post the signed addr. piz liquidators, plox to take proceedings to #p. folx who intend to continue to crib off asciilifeform's work, which continues, or want functioning hosting : to #a. (which i'ma take is no longer official mp castle, i'ma take off the sign shortly.) next gen of FG will still be produced, on asciilifeform's dime ( and i'ma respect mp_en_viaje's wishes if he wan
asciilifeform: as for this -- can read nao, or never, or year later, will still be there, when asciilifeform operating the only 'gossip' hosting backbone-sitting isp, and mp_en_viaje excommunicated 5 moar people for failing to lay atlantic fibers for him, and still has none.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: re snsa, it was always yours to do with as you wanted, was structured in such a way (w/ the e.g. 'mpex fee' exponential growth) that asciilifeform was guaranteed never to see a bitcent from it. ( and knew this; worked w/ mp_en_viaje strictly outta principle. )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: might want to let diana_coman know, to 'stop follow the amateur exertions', she's been assigning e.g. 'v.py' as homework.
mp_en_viaje: i'll read it eventually ; but there's no interest now, as there was no interest then, in following your amateur exertions, so assumed.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: didja barf before or after reading ( as promised ) 2nd ed of #s ?
mp_en_viaje: "phase 5", help me rwanda. if you buy 5 it'll be 5 and if not it'll be 625 or 32598049853049 phases. just as long as it dun involve any eh what the hell's the point, it;s been talked to death already.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-28#1948460 << i'm not interested in "patching over", it'll just be another version of ye perennial "what's the absolute minimum i can do so as to just barely squeak by the standard without actually doing it".
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-27 19:16:12 asciilifeform: diana_coman: as i specifically wish to operate with no external capital, this is the only possible scheme.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Even the most independent "muh seeds, muh land, muh guns" farmers know they can't completely cut themselves off from outside capital. They might not like taking debt, but they gotta be open to the possibility. If the neighbor's farm fall due to low commodity prices, as a farmer you have to at least try to buy his fields for the scale as your position isn't much better without growing.

BingoBoingo: So far quiet. some youth without obvious affiliation gathered on the Rambla as they tend to do, tomando mate. Some fireworks (not a metaphor) on the beach. A *very* few cars with flags of varying sizes making rounds.
BingoBoingo: As the results are awaited: https://www.montevideo.com.uy/Noticias/Algunas-aclaraciones-sobre-el-video-viral-de-un-votante-de-Cabildo-Abierto-en-Lavalleja-uc733924
asciilifeform: a 3) 'expand the republic' presently takes more brain than i have, to offer concrete idea. but will write on the subj, as soon as i have half a clue (and ftr, imho sending spam is ~not~ a practical plan for expanding republic.)
asciilifeform: diana_coman: as i specifically wish to operate with no external capital, this is the only possible scheme.
asciilifeform: (among other things, full BOMs for the irons (as per mp_en_viaje's crit) are given in the article.)
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: seems to take asciilifeform approx same time to get to/from his rack as did for BingoBoingo to his
asciilifeform recalls as a 3yo playing w/ grandfather's set of rubber stamps; no fewer than dozen, and in astonishing variety of shapes/sizes
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: In this system "escribano", notarization is its own law course of roughly the same duration and intensity as the lawyering one.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: afaik, anglo 'law' is ~100% this. ( and, as superset, mp's description. )
BingoBoingo: For that practicing in common law means the law itself is at least as ambiguous as the facts of the case through history rapidly increasing the complexity as they system is used.
BingoBoingo: trinque: It is indeed. As mentioned in the post however, defending a very unlikely suit from them would be very inexpensive in monetary terms to me. Pursuing a suit is the expensive direction.
trinque: not that you should assume sense will suddenly flower in, as you put it, the damned.
BingoBoingo: trinque: I want to thank you again for the kick into action a week ago. I have had limited direct contact with damned this week, but it seems that Yesterday is the day it clicked for them as to just how absolutely fucked they can be.
BingoBoingo: trinque: Now the big problem Uruguay's had is that the Fat Foreheads are a coalition. This means that while each constituent sector has socialisms they want to push and areas they want to give room for takeable money to build up, the coalition aspect and retard bias towards hugging means that when they go to deal... Internally as a coalition they sacrifice the breathing room for business entirely and instead do a little bit of each kind
BingoBoingo: Now, pamphleteers from the various commie groups along with the dying "Colorado" party get the flash 404 list "Ya tengo" routine as well. Monday and Wednesday they got it all the way from the old city to Montevideo Shopping.
trinque: as they should
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, so you're actually more interested in specializing as latino paralegal ?
asciilifeform: diana_coman: right, but mp_en_viaje is also right, i dun have a heavy-industry grade operation atm. possibly after successfully serving blog-grade rk's etc such as yours, for a while, can build 'tower of go-for-broke'.
asciilifeform: Bingoboingo: fwiw i was entirely fooled by latech's dressing up as 'actual datacenter', so cannot say 'yes, indeed, this is surely it'. but fwiw very diff. picture than what saw there. (e.g. each of the 3 halls is fully 4+x the size of latech's 1, and inhabited mostly by actual comps, not old 'dell's stacked in a heap, tho at least 1 halfcab in fact contained those). only time/actual usage can tell the diff b/w sham and troo dc, afai
Bingoboingo: I suspect they anticipated I would have been dumb enough to declare their boy as counsel or invite a nagfest despite... Their receipt of a certified telegram from muh boy.
asciilifeform: Bingoboingo: here, 3 halls, 1 packed, 2 ~half-full, none was anywhere as hot or loud as latech at the time i went there
Bingoboingo: And no m2 screws at all. Just oodles of my black #3 philips bolts the rack nuts eat. Rack nuts stripped as well so they can put their plastic airflow strips in.
mp_en_viaje: you don' tsign anything, or even care, feel free to disdain the rats if you like that, they might as well feel the burn of their inconsequential arrangements,
mp_en_viaje: orcs do a lot of thse "copies of human land extremities as ordinary business"
mp_en_viaje: it'll prolly work ~same as "free condo florida vacation", dweeby dude there in polyester shirt talking your ear off
mp_en_viaje: which is the position here : you can shrug, you can just as well laugh in their faces. they've been bitched, it's done.

I am currently working a full-time saeculum gig, so I wouldn't be able to take this as a full-time thing, but I could do this in small weekly/monthly pieces, as with previous published work. so if you think this works and I'm th
mp_en_viaje: but in context of tmsr. again -- because there;s a heavy undertone here of "hire yourself out as apprentice" which i don't particularly want fucked.
BingoBoingo had a productive day. So far. Sat down with the fellow who recommended yesterday's audition. Told him that I was letting him know as a courtesy that after the meeting I developed the strong suspicion that the recommended fellow was the other party's counsel. That I don't know how good his relationship with the fellow is, but that I do not mind, and it may even help me if he warns the fellow that in the case I have been
bvt: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-10-24#1948109 << it's mine, installed in my ancestral home (and not kiev, no). it switched from -connect to independent mode only yesterday, so i'd let it work for at least a month before advertising it as a stable node.
asciilifeform: also unrelatedly, but imho interesting : apparently 'mivocloud' hangs off a euro branch office of same carrier as asciilifeform's chair.
asciilifeform: mod6, BingoBoingo : afaik the refund for subscribers is the 1 equation w/out any unknowns. so oughta happen as soon as BingoBoingo is ready.
mod6: As well as S.NSA?
mod6: Thanks for the info. Sounds like he'll be letting you know, updating you on a regular basis as to what he's hears, etc.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: will do. ( as for spam trap, until i actually get chance to move my www to mp's wp system, the spam trap stays, i dun have slaves to filter the 400+ spamolas was getting erry day prior to installation of traps )
mod6: So while you're just 'continuing to be a model plaintiff...', is the idea that our lawyer is going to review the facts from the compiled case-file/complaint that you've gathered while he gets his complaint strategy in order? As my assumption is that he'll want to have a meeting with 'the damned' and their lawyers before filing a motion with the court?
BingoBoingo: mod6: Retained no. It is a pay as needed situation.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-24 12:34:42 asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-10-24#1947981 << i admit that actually surprised that none of'em (at least as chronicled) answered diana_coman with 'just how many boxes are you planning to buy, that you are also asking us to convert to new religion ?'
diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-24#1947996 - also, wouldn't this have belonged as a comment there really? or some reason to comment on... feedbot's announcements?
mod6: It sounds like you have formally retained the 1st guy as our lawyer, is this correct?
BingoBoingo: Second set of stooges present themselves as good as aligned with the enemy.

BingoBoingo: As I was saying, very un-Uruguayo office culture. It's not as ideal as a cultivated relationship with an independent, but for my failure to have that... this seems to be the next best option for having leverage.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I came into the first one through having paid them for sit down to discuss the residency process. Things never got further than paying fot the sit down in that case as their rate for help with places I have to go myself anyways was rather rich for the task, but they were incredibly responsive and un-Uruguayo. I hope I left them with the impression that I pay for value.
BingoBoingo: Surveying the local lawyers, most... to the extent they specialize stick to the popular bread and butter of family law, criminal defense, real estate (construction and rental as sub specialties), and the most routine sorts of contracts.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-24 00:31:34 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: pretty interesting post. seems to be exactly as mp predicted.

mp_en_viaje: it can be argued that this is the ~principal~ utility of www in the first place, that it permits things such as "reading trilema" only as a 2ndary bolt on. what it's for is to turn a half hour trudge into a five second job.
mp_en_viaje: re http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-23#1947933 leaving aside how it belonged in the orig thing, not as an afterthought, and focusing on the znc -c thing : there is a GREAT advantage of www-for-config over command-line-for-config that can not be underscored enough :

spyked: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-23#1947811 <-- me too, though not sure when (if) that's going to happen. fwiw, I'm also using current saltmine to steal experience standing up systems, though that practice is slowly on its way to getting killed here as well, as intelisms (on the hw side) and kubernetes (on the sw) start gaining ground
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: pretty interesting post. seems to be exactly as mp predicted.
BingoBoingo: There is the very live possibility after today's meeting that the internet weather had nothing to do with us as a primary target.
mp_en_viaje: i'm not against zncing through your own machine so you can piggy-back test on what you suppose is ddos (but isn't) ; but the utility to me just about zilch -- for one thing if czech tubes take a break, i'll lose the znc connection just as well as i lose the direct. i suppose it'd save on revoicing, but honestly i have that setup to be entirely painless as it is, 1s op.
asciilifeform: the os is the current draft of 'asciilifeform-dulap' as earlier provided to diana_coman .
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: prepared, however, box, if still interested. runs trb and znc ( the latter w/ default config, presently logs into fleanode as 'pilotplant' and joins #a , can fill in yerself or switch off by removing the crontab ) on boot.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i honestly dun see any ddos as such. i suspect it's interplay of friable freenode with shitty czech tubes.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-18 12:31:11 mp_en_viaje: as i was saying earlier in the proceedings, nsa could very well support this effort ; but it has to be fucking serious not penny ante flavour-of-the-week amateur show.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-23#1947839 << bullcrap, as per >> http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-18#1946412
mp_en_viaje: life forms have no option re their genetics ; but man has all the option conceivable re the makeup of its mind. can use any dna just as well as any other, not stuck with the parents' like in the other case.
mp_en_viaje: looky, you were a beardless 20yo at some point, but that's normal in boys. meanwhile you've made 30, and that's iffy. soon you'll be 40, just as boyish faced, and bitter-er for having watched all the others grow beards betimes all around.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-10-18 21:06:21 mp_en_viaje: and i do not say this idly ; i have made my own experiments as well as seen others', very EXPENSIVE, experiments in the same vein all over the world. people regularly sink billion+ in "tech incubator" producing nothing comparable.
mp_en_viaje: for as long as your mentality stays "amateur dabbler in tmsr", i stay uninterested.
snsabot: (ossasepia) 2019-10-23 asciilifeform: guten tag diana_coman . you may have noticed, i put back the bot . it was synced with the new autosyncer that was to get deployed right before piz burned down. i'ma put it as vpatch, but prolly wont get chance this wk, hands full w/ 2nd draft of ispism.

asciilifeform: spyked: the flip side of this, is that my rack is ~cheap~. so cheap that my ~post box~ at the post office costs almost half of it . its expense is somewhere b/w my water bill and mains current bill. i picked it up with the knowledge that if i am unable to make satisfactory arrangements to sell space in it to respectable folx, it can indefinitely serve as personal net hosting yacht for asciilifeform (who was paying through the nose fo
