asciilifeform: (at least such as are built on gcc ..?)
asciilifeform: phf: lemme get this straight, ~all~ pthread proggies hosed on openbsd?!
asciilifeform: i gotta wonder what else, and where else, is 'not fully statically linkable' and where.
asciilifeform: is openbsd in fact 'drepperized' after all ?
asciilifeform: 'of note, previously static compilation on OpenBSD resulted in segmentation fault. this is due to libpthread not being fully linked into the final static binary...' << what did this dig lead to , phf ?
asciilifeform: perhaps - just for testing, some folx might be stuck on crapple for whatever reason.
asciilifeform: tbh i do not have a clear picture of what use a trb-on-mac might be to anyone, given as the thing needs to be up 24/7 for any practical battlefield value
asciilifeform: is musl necessary on *bsd ?? i have nfi, but did think that bsd's libc were mostly sane
asciilifeform: phf: in principle it ought to work on bsd etc. but will shit out a linux binary, unless you were to fiddle with it rather heavily. but i do not see why to do this.
asciilifeform: so as to build static, musltronic binary.
asciilifeform: buildroot as i used it here, was a pill against drepperism
asciilifeform: buildroot, at least as seen in 'rotor', is not necessary on bsd!! there is no glibc there !! afaik static linking works normally on known bsd
asciilifeform: (they are , i am told, being packaged for shipment as we speak )
asciilifeform: trinque: ty. but this is a pre-order, the actual widgets have not left factory yet.
asciilifeform: likely there is also certain amount of 'here's a button, what happens if i press'
asciilifeform: (idiot pgp still needs 256 rng bits for aes session keys, when transmitting, and this is own can of lolworms)☟︎
asciilifeform: 'Eusip Bvba is the independent and autonomous company behind the projects RACK66 and former projects as Thunderbox and FragFun. The company was founded in 2003 by Internetpioneers who know the market very well and felt the need for a new kind of concept for services as: hosting, housing, managed services, pre installed servers and online gaming....'
asciilifeform: 'I thought that /dev/random (as opposed to /dev/urandom) was already based on entropy from physical noise, as recorded by sensors (I think including mouse, keyboard and temperature). Sounds like they're trying to make a big deal out of addressing a theoretical vulnerability, which is irrelevant in practice.' << glorious
asciilifeform: english lacks the handy handy word, распил .
asciilifeform: much better use of budget: f35 'factories'
asciilifeform: as for tanks , i got stuck behind one in traffic (no, not hallucinating, it was on a flatbed as it ought to be.) this used to be more common sight. but as i understand they are not making so many new ones, the 1 (yes 1) factory in ohio is laying off hands
asciilifeform: e.g., for many years -- asciilifeform .
asciilifeform: the things usg spends 'military' moneys on, are only with difficulty and vigorous anal pear cranking stretchable to call 'military'
asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: i must also retreat to a dark room to do 'unsexy and necessary' per mircea_popescu's formula, long-needed job, so bbl.
asciilifeform: speaking of keys, i'd quite enjoy learning who made /gpgkey/E3B0C44298FC1C149AFBF4C8996FB92427AE41E4649B934CA495991B7852B855 and why
asciilifeform: to make it sit in the balloon , somehow stink-proof and escape-proof.
asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: what is it that you picture doing to it, that no one has thought of doing previously ?
asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: do you envision the 'unix nonsense' retreating into an airtight balloon that you have made for it, through sheer force of will ? to kill it in a staring concept ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in libertard cosmography, 'influence' is not a thing that one wields because smarter, stronger, or having more accurate model of reality, but because blessed by satan
asciilifeform: dunno, warm and dry bed is pretty sweet if you ask me
asciilifeform: i'd genuinely like to know how it came to be that 'get cocaine' came to rank above 'get pubkey' , 'get postbox' , 'get a flat' in gabriel_laddel's head
