asciilifeform: fdr et al pulled epic pr stunt on their moomoos , convinced 'we're softer, gentler, not at all like germany' while burning down entire of e.g. jp , etc . pretense carried on for a spell, retooled 'we aint at all like evil moscuvy' , then finally dispensed with entirely when obsolete
asciilifeform: electrics -- scale down to ~microscopic. who didn't have a toy submarine as a boy.
asciilifeform does not have the naval-fu to say whether this scales down linearly
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i already nailed down a format, observe, ip is stored always as native-endian 32bit.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: observe, my lib is somewhat unorthodox, it tries to abstract entirely over the os socket, nails down a fixed packet length, ipv4 4evah, no 'nonblockisms' - who wants these, can implement via ada task; no dnsism supported at all, etc
asciilifeform falls down
Mocky: I'm working on a laptop hooked up to a 4k tv, so every time the power cycles I end up sitting listening to the neighborhood AC units powering down until my tv comes back.
asciilifeform: ( given as you never operate on anyffing that came down the wire without passing checksum )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: re: cutting down on stale time at customs http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/S3auq/?raw=true
a111: Logged on 2017-03-10 16:57 asciilifeform: btw i will also put down in the log, one very simple possible algorithm for a 'txidx-fs' :
asciilifeform: i can see an argument for keeping a cut-down version (perhaps trb's) around on ~some~ boxen , simply for curl-for-fetching-heathen-www, but that's about it.
mircea_popescu: nah, it was to cut down on bullshit webpages doing cross-site loads.
asciilifeform: i thought it was to cut down on bw burned on ~incoming~ bots
asciilifeform: diana_coman: meanwhile i'ma have to issue diana_coman and mod6 with spare sticks after all, so diana_coman plox to give signal when ok to power down your unit
mircea_popescu: apache ~will~ fall down now and again, usually through oom.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: see if you can find why your apache fell down
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: right nao anybody can sit down on as many ips as he wants, or munge and retransmit , or pretty much any conceivable mischief.
a111: Logged on 2018-04-18 04:53 ben_vulpes: douchebag: pizarro board has serious reservations about your fucking up our honorsystem ip routing table and bringing dos/whatever hell down upon our little gated community, can i extract a commitment from you to not misbehave in my cab?
mircea_popescu: what is "sit down" mean, specifically.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-11 22:41 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo plox to sit down on somewhere other than dulap ip.
asciilifeform: by sitting down on top of its ip.
asciilifeform: there is not a 'smart' switch in the rack, all packets travel down all wires.
asciilifeform: ACHTUNG all pizarro rockchip customers ! if you modified your /etc/conf.d/net , in recent 2 weeks, plz say ! asciilifeform currently suspects that somebody munged theirs, and it may account for diana_coman's unreachable box, we may have to take the pilot plant down for maintenance and manually dig, if nobody says anyffing
mircea_popescu: and, of course, ultimately it all boils down to http://trilema.com/2018/discordatum-wormatiense/ : permitting temporal power to the "spiritual" maniacs is suicide.
mircea_popescu: this is utter insanity. you don't need, or want, or ever seek "mom's" permission to fuck the daugther. not yours ; not hers ; at the slightest provocation it gets burned down, and the ashes dumped in cloaca maxima.
asciilifeform: they could learn civilized langs, and climb down from trees. theoretically.
asciilifeform: nah i suspect 'common ancestor', the 'linear history' where 'newton sat down to..'
asciilifeform: ( there is legend where in late '80s jp purchased an entire steamer full of sov alarm clocks. immediately melted down for niobium etc )

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-06#1848344 << if they STILL don't burn down the us "embassy" / stick in the salt mines any lizzard-looking dork... ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-01-20 13:16 mircea_popescu: whenever man sits down to do anything, man discovers that he is in all likelihood the first man to have ever sat down to do that one thing.
asciilifeform: hmm lobbes bot down ?
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2018/09/theranos-wind-down-announced-overnight/ << Qntra - Theranos Wind Down Announced Overnight
asciilifeform: let the gods strike me down, but, will confess, asciilifeform never yearned for miami.
ave1: Also the first time that I tried to rebuild a kernel, first try needed 15G of harddisk space and created a 3G kernel (now down to 500mb, which compresses to about 12 or so, but still)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i sat down and worked through it on several occasions, most recently during gossipd thread; prior to that, when i was in slave galley and tore own hair out with juniperism; and prior...
mircea_popescu: well yes, but the question before you is, "have i actually sat down, thought this through, and it dun work" or is it a case of "my first impulse was so and so and now i'm stuck with it like any 9 yo" ?
mircea_popescu: if the wrong "rules" of the administrative office get in the way, the only acceptable solutionb is to fucking burn it down.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i still dunget why it has to be issue, usb hub can be dialed down to desired speed with method described on FG www pg
a111: Logged on 2018-08-01 21:28 diana_coman: after reading around on this mess with the usb speeds, the summary + questions would be: 1. the dwc_otg seems actually specific to raspberry pi so I don't see how it's directly useful atm; am I missing something? 2. the manual/runtime pill so far relies on the companion mechanism to force a USB port down from "high speed" to "full speed" so basically from ehci to uhci/ohci; wouldn't it make more sense to blacklist ehci, xhci and whatever
cazalla: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-14#1834665 << tbh figured you would have brought the hammer down long before ☝︎
trinque "well there's flooding down in texas.. all of the telephone lines are down"
Mocky: !!down
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: Sent 2 hours and 53 minutes ago: <Mocky_phone> my internet went down last night. helpful cable guy scheduled to show up on tuesday
BingoBoingo: At least I dun have to worry about them running down here. The price of vasoline in Uruguay is its own rape.
mircea_popescu: !!down kristof
mod6: mircea_popescu's idea of a very stripped down wpmp might be pretty interesting with "signed aritcle" or "signed comment".
mod6: The BTC-Dev Mailing List is still down...
trinque: speaking for myself, I'm gonna be way crankier if I've got 0.3BTC of hardware down there that's suddenly homeless
BingoBoingo: lobbes: ty, will head down soon then. Got another Qntra to squeeze out.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-30 18:35 mircea_popescu: alright. there's nothing wrong with "well... item i was working to rewrite for the past x weeks and was going to have done in 1-3 more weeks decided to critically crap out today ; my choice is either to be down for the remainder 1-3 weeks or else to duplicate/waste an estimate of y hours of work to get the old shiot back up hopefully by z. god damn."
mircea_popescu: alright. there's nothing wrong with "well... item i was working to rewrite for the past x weeks and was going to have done in 1-3 more weeks decided to critically crap out today ; my choice is either to be down for the remainder 1-3 weeks or else to duplicate/waste an estimate of y hours of work to get the old shiot back up hopefully by z. god damn." ☟︎
asciilifeform: as i gather, they treat the anglos similarly to how tmsr -- take anyffing not bolted down, but do not hurry to give back.
mircea_popescu: anyway ; there was never actually a time us pilots were remarkable. during the war raf dominated the east and by VERY far japan dominated the east (in fact, the "biologically unfit to fly" jap pilots were the best pilots of the war, hands down). even romania's royal air force had better pilots than fucking usaf, wtf. but anyway, it was mostly brits and germans.
asciilifeform: '...in the last half century only three U.S. Air Force pilots have become aces (five or more aircraft shot down). There may never be any more aces.'
trinque recalls throwing around m1 garand's in high school, had lead poured down the barrel
BingoBoingo: Well, when you gotta cut down non-Judeoist fanatics like the Japs... Gotta do what you gotta do
mod6: That's the thought, yeah. I think a while ago ben_vulpes knocked the price down a bit to make it more appleaing. ( ben_vulpes, plz to correct me if I'm wrong here ). And I didn't know that this had happened.
mircea_popescu: the door for the people who're looking to NOT do things is down the hall. this is the door for the people looking to actually do things.
asciilifeform: !!down elsker
mod6: yeah, ive heard the arg peso, the brazil real, and turkish lira all took a bath with the EM chaos lately -- shitbuck had been rising... down now in recent days.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform very easy to have pocket model of this : go out the door, turn left, sit down at "entrepreneurial" "cowork" whatever neet social house, say "bitcoin".
mircea_popescu: lol, such collapse, from ye days of http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-10#1500816 all the way down to http://archive.is/5OjG0#selection-173.325-173.358 nonsense ? tell you what : if you've never brought it before the forum, it was without much of fight. duh. ☝︎
trinque: np, before long this part is going to sit down at pizarro instead.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-11 05:04 mircea_popescu: sooner or later the dorks will understand that until/unless burned down us "embassy" / all ustards coming in detained and shot, there won't be peace.
Mocky: from my pov, stacking down to *any* 2 stacks is the bulk of the value. but in my mining the stacks are going to converge to q q-1 eventually. and in fact large piles of q q-1 are sitting around waiting to eat incoming small stacks
Mocky: mircea_popescu, does ave1's example of stacking down to 7846x173q 1592x177q, actually violate any criteria, despite that it 'could' be stacked further, it could not be stacked down into fewer slots
Mocky: asciilifeform, ave1's above is not in fact example of immiscible quantities: ave1's final state can be stacked down to q, q-1 by my algo in 2 moves
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-25#1844413 << ha yea i sat down to write the proggy and realized ☝︎
mod6: Well, it's ~$4500 to buy a pre-built corp. Then alf & myself would have to fly down and sign the articles of organization.
trinque: I dunno the tax laws down there, but might be beneficial in regards to deducting expenses?
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2018/08/spanish-guardia-civil-shuts-down-outlaw-environmentalist-turtle-breeding-operation/ << Qntra - Spanish Guardia Civil Shuts Down Outlaw Environmentalist Turtle Breeding Operation
mircea_popescu: reminds me of the shitting-down-nuke-tube thing
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-22#1843560 << possibly i'm thick, but i read mircea_popescu's puzzle statement and dun grasp how this is possible, for the value to be conserved, if every mix operation rounds down to nearest whole ☝︎
asciilifeform: 'vaccine is work of the devil' has the obvious down side, neh.
mircea_popescu: the problem in the time of newton was a bunhc of morons wanting to "burn down the sorcery".
asciilifeform: Mocky: in the era before down's syndrome sufferers were set to programming computer , 'library' was simply book of useful recipes, to be studied and ~understood~ and put to use with care -- e.g. 'numerical recipes in fortran' , knuth's aop, etc
asciilifeform: naturally. it's somewhere down with the table legs.
asciilifeform: 'the giant sat down in chair' or how did mircea_popescu put it in the old piece
mircea_popescu: but in any case, jacobin stands today for "an immoderate search for truth, more liable to burn shit down than discover any truths".
asciilifeform: ( and also not clear that it didn't desperately need burnin' down, for that matter )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it isn't clear to me that jacobins etc actually believed in anyffing other than 'let's burn shit down'
asciilifeform: folx who wanted curtain call, jumped the wire, got shot fulla holes, errybody else -- not, no choppings or other oddities, nobody particularly eager to lie down in mengele's hospital.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-05 23:50 mircea_popescu: aww poor bb lost weight! how you holding up down there ?
mircea_popescu: the examples can i nfact continue. before i wrote down grep -Po '"nickname":.*?[^\\]",' for http://trilema.com/2018/fetlikeslol/#selection-97.20-97.53 i reviewed the expert sex changes. do you know "you should really use xml module to parse xml" is included in ~EVERY~ ~SINGLE~ ~GOD~ ~DAMNED~ ~COMMENT~ ?!?!?
a111: Logged on 2018-07-17 02:42 asciilifeform: 'they cloink a coupla with the sledgehammer so as to break down the find into shards the size they can fit in a pocket, after which they stick it on their oxcart'
ben_vulpes: kids would rather sit around the table gabbling about whatever problems 0.00003% of the population have instead of sitting down and reading old shit about universals as what apply to 99.99% of the population
asciilifeform: observe how the unix folx, richie & thompson, also proceeded similarly, doubled down on the 'unix philosophy' in e.g. 'inferno'
asciilifeform: phf: mircea_popescu specificially switched on +r to cut down on spamola, see http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-04#1839441 thrd ☝︎

asciilifeform: ok, output is happening. up side : there's output, that there was not before. down side : so far all of it is small change crapolade. i'ma really have to do a mod-by-mod walk and gcd(mod, 8192bit primorial from oldthread) . and henceforth on submission. cuz this is lame.
mod6: we are trying to get more drives down there, as you know. but could be a while until we have any spares at all.
trinque: winding down after a long day; yourself?
a111: Logged on 2018-08-08 16:58 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'ma test new kernel today, then tomorrow will ask BingoBoingo to power down rk-c and put disk in dulap to i can snap new master img, then it will go into service ( and can reimage BingoBoingo also ) .
asciilifeform: observe that you won't find asciilifeform posting tips an' tricks re winblowz terraforming. or anything re subj. the Right Thing to do with winblowz, is to flush it down toilet, and walk away.
BingoBoingo: Aite, going to just leave my RC powered down then
