shinohai: So shinohai managed
to acquire decent hotel room on Xmas eve in old hometown .... and has a curious fake plant
that resembles marijuana sitting in corner.
ben_vulpes: there's ~no way
that
the
timeout requestment has fired yet
ben_vulpes: pflol well after excising max_outbound_connections and
the one-connection-per-block connection count now at 114 and node very quickly got back up
to date
mircea_popescu: it's in
the channel as an ad-hoc
thing, "this person is voiced atm, if
that's worth anything
to you". not intended
to prove anything
to archeologists.
mircea_popescu: separate items. i
think
the sha was in
the ml name
to prevent collisions ;
danielpbarron: i know
this was discussed already but i don't see how
the sha in
the url helps, or for
that matter posting sums in chan. if
the enemy is gonna swap out
the file he can swap out
the hash
too right?
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron yeah, not
too crazy about
that behaviour either.
mircea_popescu: for
teh first
time in many weeks, i dunno what
to say.
danielpbarron: in his defense, you'd have
to rename it anyway as
the mailing list adds
the sha sum
to
the filename
ben_vulpes: let's
try again: i misnamed
the seal for
the
truncation patch, must have "ben_vulpes" in
the last period-delimited field of
the seal name instead of "ben_vules"
mircea_popescu: nobody will note nor should
they. why does it need renaming ?
ben_vulpes: also it is *snowing* on *christmas eve* in
the northern suburbs of
the socialist paradise
a111: Logged on 2017-12-24 21:38 asciilifeform: also why wouldja 1) help hitler 2) for $ 500 3)
that you'd have
to suffer from down's syndrome
to actually believe will be paid ...?
ben_vulpes: god sent him a sign, what's he going
to do with it.
mircea_popescu: fuck 'em,
the salvation of
the drowning is work for
the hands of
the self-same drowning. god may mercifully send you a sign, but
that's already asking for
too much.
mircea_popescu: hardest
thing
to look at is how you wasted your life, halfway in. so, yeah.
ben_vulpes: but judging from how
the biofilm uses symbols instead of
thinking i rather expect
that
the protonmail address is read
mircea_popescu: i'm curious what flavour of muh feelings gets pulled
this
time.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes if you (or anybody) has a contact for
this gregory pery
tard (i dun imagine
totallynotrobots@protonmail.com actually works ?), maybe point out
to him
that
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-24#1758148 and it's really ridoinculous
to be wasting his weeks
to freely support
the usg pile of evil ?
☝︎ mircea_popescu: "What’s weird
though is
that
the OAuth2
token doesn’t ever change, and I can’t find anything in
the Uber developer documentation
that deals with
token expiration;" << word.
mircea_popescu: that's just because you're lazy. real men always work with
tools designed
to work counterproductivelty and maim
them in
the process.
mircea_popescu: it'll be cool when
they "upgrade" it
to ipv6 and
the 000ffff mask will have
to be updated
to correctly handle unicode.
ben_vulpes: does it? does it really? what
the fuck does work even mean here.
ben_vulpes: that bitmashing against
the ip makes my head hurt.
mircea_popescu: it's one
thing
to have it in
the press, esp considering
the history of how
that came about. but as obvious knob as it gets.
ben_vulpes: well
the question rattling around me braincase is ~"does
this help or hinder weaponized
TRB?"
mircea_popescu: myeah. anyway, stopgap of
the "if i make it what i
think it should be -- it crashes" line.
mircea_popescu: recall we had a discussion re star breaking nat crapolade. but you need
the stars and a system specifically designed
to use
them, as
there contemplate
ben_vulpes: ah and when its ip gets passed around
the network, it simply shits
the whole world up.
mircea_popescu: this is
the problem here : you get a bunch of "nodes" which only connect out, and a few nodes who get hammered. and since no serious
thought was given
to
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes a node behind a NAT is not capable of being addressed. so it receives no inbound, merely connects out. so it does not participate in lessening
the load.
ben_vulpes: why do
the NAT node connections
threaten
to
take down realnodes?

traveling
through
the suburban wastelands yesterday, i
tried a 'starbucks' croissant for lols,
thinking
to myself, 'imagine if
they can screw up
the croissant'. and lo, it was
terrible. no flake, all soft spongiform inside.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-24 20:40 asciilifeform:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-24#1758167 << ro was like
this.
to
the point
that even nao neither asciilifeform nor his pet can bring
themselves
to eat at american 'coffee' shops any moar. at all.
mircea_popescu: if
that limit is not
there, you can readily encounter a situation where one of
the 10 is
taken down every other hour by 90 inbound connections. or at least -- more readily.
mircea_popescu: with
the limit of 8, you have
the 10 receiving no more
than 720 connections, ie 7.2 on average, with a linear distrib max of 15 ? so you can live a standard of "and can handle 16 conns" for a "proper" box
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes suppose your relay network is 100 nodes ; suppose 10 of
those are real nodes and 90 of
those bullshit nodes behind a nat in a zek's house somewhere.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: yeah i pulled
the
trigger on
that excision along with
the hash
truncation, see
the ml
ben_vulpes: i don't quite see
the connection between NATed nodes and
this max outbound connections constraint, could you elaborate?
mircea_popescu: it was important,
to limit
the derp nodes from choking
the network.
mircea_popescu: when you worship your betters you ensure your place in
the world, ~such as it is~. when you worship clitler you get nice words and utter doom.
mircea_popescu: 2020 "young writer for
the ny
times" ain't gonna be 1950s ginsburg, as it ain't gonna be 1970s mia farrow. it's gonna be fungusbrain bigmomma.
mircea_popescu: but
the same drive
to ever cheapen
the soviet's offerings
to
the zek ("only political
training contributes
to forwarding
teh revolution!! everything else contributes
to costs!!!" said
teh world famous elena ceausescu-zigglar) will cheapen
the very rug from under your feet also.
mircea_popescu: i know it seemed all great and fabulous back when deskilling brought about abominables a la condolezza rice as "secretary of state" notwithstanding strict incapacity of any sort of
thinking
mircea_popescu: and mind all ye of
the "aspirational" demographic, all ye dumb pantsuited hussies :
the sword keeps right on cutting after it cut
the slice you wanted.
ben_vulpes: how many power rangers did you kill
today...
hanbot: <mircea_popescu> iirc hanbot was using it
to do something
trilema-related, sounded happy with it. << yeah, i'm working on setting it up with a (partial in all senses)
trilema post index, see if it makes finding posts in chan easier since google is ~useless for it.
trinque's ircbot as posted has been a joy.
ben_vulpes running
truncation patch, will get back in
the saddle after misc duties of parenting while impoverished
ben_vulpes: and
they need a next gen authentication framework
to fix it...
a111: Logged on 2017-12-21 17:59 mircea_popescu: NOW,
the first, and naive,
thought, would be "o noes, all
those poor but intelligent engineer minds who will lose
their freenode ; we should
try
to help
them"

than it's closest US equivalent. Eye candy everywhere.
ben_vulpes: and no, opinions don't exist here if
they don't come from *a person*, which is predicated on an identity.
ben_vulpes: Hssgh5337k: you could at least mention
these skills; otherwise it reeks of "i'm a magical pony and YOU DON'T UNDERSTAAAAND"
Hssgh5337k: In
that case it seems my skills and opinions are not needed here.
ben_vulpes: and
to quote BigTexasBingo,
the
time for showing up and derping around without saying "i am so and so, and should be considered for inclusion in
the forum for reasons of x y and z" was in 2013, not
the
tail end of 2017.
BigTexasBingo: Where will
the other lords land in
this era of Great Again

☟︎ BigTexasBingo: For serious
though, how lucky am I
that no other lord in
the big prison has made
their escape here yet
