ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 11:32:06 diana_coman: after going
through ~30 pre-selected ISPs and getting more of a headache
than anything useful out of it, I'll
take a break and a deep breath; at
this rate I'll end up going
to datacentre ~1km from here and at least
talk
to some idiots face
to face rather
than via email/chat/whatever.
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, will you be able
to photodocument
the destruction of said drives once you get
the ok, currently some point soon after sun 13th ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 07:10:49 diana_coman: both
test and production servers backups seem fine and up
to date at a minimal inspection; full
test means setting
them up and
there's
the involved issue of full environment for
them (versions of everything and so on); for
this reason I'd say end of
this week (Sun 13th) rather
than "today"
mp_en_viaje: basically, failure of republic as such
to have isp now forced all lords
to have private isp, for more cost and more wasted effort and etc.
diana_coman: sure; but
then what, am I going
to run after him with more money, wtf.
diana_coman: and at any rate, I clearly need
to have stuff in more
than 1 place, it's not sane
to pile it all up in Chisinau as it's not sane
to pile it all up anywhere else really
mp_en_viaje: i dunno dood, nobody's obliged
to
take money.
diana_coman: it's one
thing
to say he can't
this and
that; it's another
thing
to piss on business, dunno.
mp_en_viaje: whodda
thunk
the problem of gender in
tech is how
to actually get any boys in at all.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, and we just make
the republic girl-only at
that juncture also ?

BingoBoingo: All caps, all
the
time, 1998-2005-ish "Real ultimate Ninja" style copy all
the
time
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, yes but his whinings were
the stuff of legend. "SOLIDCOIN WIL LTAKE OVER!!!"
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 06:36:07 mp_en_viaje: anyoen recall
the solidcoin btw ? such fucking great early-usg retardation, it was phenomenal.
the empire of idiots is really following in some glorious footsteps with
their genius "ideas".
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 06:29:47 mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, how does it feel btw,
to watch guys supposedly so far ahead in
the race it brings
tears
to a man's eyes, nevertheless stumble over such "nothings" ?
mp_en_viaje: sure, "not 1% dug". if you
take forever
to do anything, you'll never have done anything at any point, it's
the way
this works. gotta move fast and act decisively
to get anywhere ; and no,
this comes with no guarantee you'll get anywhere you wanted
to go in
the first place.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-06 15:29:42 asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: dun fughet where bv ended up delivering a crate for
the cost of 3
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 01:09:40 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: fwiw piz was
to be also asciilifeform's escape
tunnel, but dug not even 1% of it, so is
the smallest loss.
mp_en_viaje:
http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-08#1942155 << yeah, was remarkably slow. you're a master at discounting
time-cost and
time-risk, but consider :
the probability of something like latechco weird occuring JUST AS you were preparing a supply run increases linearily with
the amount of
time you spend in
that phase.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 01:00:43 asciilifeform: y'know,
the designated spot where a pauper paups.
mp_en_viaje: is
the idea you're actually packing
to move out of us or what exactly is
the underlying unspoken content ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 00:54:20 asciilifeform: imho castle mpstein would be a proper home for
the remaining FG's, asciilifeform does not know how long has 'until sepsis' .
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 00:47:33 asciilifeform:
the specific flavour of x86 boxen asciilifeform is partial
to, has become a rarity, and imho worth
to recover all of it for reuse.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 00:41:26 asciilifeform: ( what
to do
there, is separate q, if i knew i'd buy for self also ! )
mp_en_viaje: asking
too much of your women is not nearly as bad as not asking enough.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 00:27:09 BingoBoingo: She's been working on getting some English language, but ripping her out of
the Spanish language space and bringing her
to eastern Europe and Slavic languages
to get colocated with me near another datacenter... When
the necessity of spreading seems
to have been one of
the lessons... It seems a bit much.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-08 00:11:21 lobbes: it is easy
to look at, say MP, and go "well I'll never even be close
to doing
the
things he does", but
to me BingoBoingo's story is uniquely inspirational in
that folx like myself can go "well, he made
the jump into uncharted waters. He built *something* even if
the resistance of
the medium won in
the end. Why couldn't I also build something?"
diana_coman: BingoBoingo: my younghands.club backups are fine
too so I can confirm I don't need anything from
the shared machine re younghands.club either.
diana_coman: both
test and production servers backups seem fine and up
to date at a minimal inspection; full
test means setting
them up and
there's
the involved issue of full environment for
them (versions of everything and so on); for
this reason I'd say end of
this week (Sun 13th) rather
than "today"
diana_coman: the website's backup is fully fine (ie from
the shared pizarro machine nothing's needed for smg)
diana_coman: I doubt it makes any difference
though ie it was just me and dpb connected and neither of us active otherwise.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: my latest db backup on production server is from Saturday (5th October); apparently
the Sunday one didn't make it
through.
mp_en_viaje: anyways, ima get some bfast here, we can continue
this in a few.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, not burning hot, i just want
to help him disentangle as much as possible as fast as possible. when can you give an ok here ?
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: before asking
to destroy, I'd much rather go
through
the steps of actually restoring from existing backups
though; ie yes, backups we certainly have but I wouldn't push destroy button just yet if it's not burning hot.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, do we have backups or do we need
them ? if we need
them ima have
the disks mailed, but if not, i'd much rather have BingoBoingo destroy
them.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 22:25:11 asciilifeform: off
to pet pets. bbl.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 22:08:54 asciilifeform: will miss
the golden
time of when could put a box in a locking cage where only l1 human , rather
than dirty paws of heathens, will lay on it
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 22:01:04 asciilifeform: lobbes: i expect if we all park in same cage , will end in same
tears .
diana_coman: o.O
there's at least one isp in bucharest actually offering an AMD Opteron dedicated ;
take
that asciilifeform !
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 21:40:13 asciilifeform: as it is, asciilifeform was building boxen, so managed
to not only burn most of coin stash on it, but fiatola saving also.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 21:39:13 asciilifeform: so normally i see it as 'non-renewable resource', like
to sell organs.
mp_en_viaje: anyoen recall
the solidcoin btw ? such fucking great early-usg retardation, it was phenomenal.
the empire of idiots is really following in some glorious footsteps with
their genius "ideas".
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 21:37:37 asciilifeform: lobbes: nao-forgotten d00d wrote a sort of early premined shitcoin, 'urbit', and asciilifeform won one as a prize in a contest he had. is what
this was.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 21:32:39 lobbes: I bought my first coin for ~$20 back in 2013 or abouts,
then hung onto it for dear life. Almost lost it in a
tardstalk scam, but luckily read hanbot's ancient writings; found
this place in
time
diana_coman: yes,
the need for diversity lends
them a good hand currently.
mp_en_viaje: "i want a diverse bevy of nubile young sluts looking just like
this one"
mp_en_viaje: besides, why deny ourselves
the benefit of diversity just because definitionally diversity not homogenuous ? it'd be folly writ large.
diana_coman: the way I see it, atm a logger is just about what
they can handle anyways.
mp_en_viaje: yet
this is how business, and for
that matter adult life, goes. ALL
the fucking
time, i saw people much smarter
than me, richer
than me,
taller, prettier, whatever you will, " driven before you, and
to hear
the lamentation of
their women etc" because of
this and naught else.
diana_coman: fwiw re moldavians, I intend
to keep
the logger
there;
they *did* shoot
themselves in
the foot and so I won't add
to
that what I planned, but I won't move it away either.
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, how does it feel btw,
to watch guys supposedly so far ahead in
the race it brings
tears
to a man's eyes, nevertheless stumble over such "nothings" ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-07 21:27:22 lobbes: I may look into getting another box from
them myself; gonna need another home for blog / auctionbot and would rather not hang everything on my usg hoster
diana_coman: it would be
the keks of
time if now
the singaporean very-tightly-process-no-idea-outside guys actually manage
to pass
the hurdle and accept payment via deedbot
hanbot_abroad: sure sure, run it as
they please, but don't call it something it's not. plenty of grottenbahnschlossen scattered around not calling
themselves Serious Businesses.
mp_en_viaje is not particularly keen
to look back however many years hence "fuuu... if only i had
time!".
mp_en_viaje: goes deeper
than oft realised, you've got a life,
that's all you get, do as you will, gl&all
that.
hanbot_abroad: unfortunately also --> no regrets, which means no change, and meanwhile i walk away from reading
that convo with
the sole conclusion people oughta lose a
toe at
the start of discussions.
mp_en_viaje: implicitly what i aimed
to resolve with my structured summary in
the introduction. but, self-evidently, if no hirarchy -> no meaning -> no possible introduction etc.
mp_en_viaje: no hierarchy -> no
time, just as elementarily.
hanbot_abroad: howdy. voiced
to say you make
time for what's important; nothing's important in a system devoid of meaning because everything from god
to a cheeseburger has
the same weight and emotional relevancy and etc.
mp_en_viaje: but i don't deem
the people with no
time as having a life. because wtf life is
that, circumvectamur amore.
diana_coman: that much
though is
true for anyone; ie either
they make
time for x or
they..don't have it ; and yes,
they can eat and drink until
they die (though as
the line goes,
that'll come quickly)
mp_en_viaje: but i have
time
to read shaw's deeply inept attempt, like i have
time
to all sorta
things. not because "there's nothing else on
tv" anyway, wtf,
there was literal parade of sluts, came naked
through hotel
to see maybe i have
time for kitty ? as it happens i didn't. will, later, defo. what can you do.
mp_en_viaje: cuz, elementarily, if i didn't make it, i wouldn't have it. i can certainly eat, drink and make merry back
to back for
the remainder of my days wut.
mp_en_viaje: i mean... come, come now, who above me can claim "no
time
to X" ? here i sit,
like last time, in a bed surrounded by mirrors, MAKING
time.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: indeed;
though it was
that "your stuff"; pretty much "rigid study languages, no
time
to communicate" just here it's rigidly sticking boxes in racks, no
time
to know wtf
mp_en_viaje: "no
time
to read" implicitly includes "i'm done re-evaluatin ganything"
diana_coman: had yest in #o a funny guy (not romanian
though) who was so very busy studying 20 languages (very rigid program!!!)
that he didn't have any
time for...communicating
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, how
to re-evaluate
tho if no
time
to read ? it's a chain.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: ah,
that myeah; it did quite start like
that indeed.
