mod6: wondering if you end up with the same ubuntu error I get here: http://dpaste.com/0RXRBNC.txt
mod6: <+mod6> alright, so I created this script: http://dpaste.com/04DJKKA.txt << take a look here for reference
mod6: so i ended up chaging the file name to "vdiff.sh" + chmod 0755, and then changing the script so it reads: "vdiff.sh a b > genesis.vpatch"
punkman: mircea_popescu: curl http://w.b-a.link/otp/90f89eec52021b96 | gpg << I wonder if this can blow up in a spectacular way
Birdman: Coldbleed is someone i had been talking to about the WoT and -assets so i directed him here
Birdman: I try to open it, but it says it cant find a program to open with
Birdman: Hello, im getting the OTP when i ask for voice, but im not sure what to do past that
tripleslash: Why the need for full sync --verifyall? What'd I miss?
mod6: <+asciilifeform> because afaik no one has yet done this. << I have 2x completed full sync with -verifyall. And I have further attemps #3 & #4 >300`000 blocks atm. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i take it back, my life doens't suck.
mircea_popescu: numerously but not significantly. atm i actually regard it more like a legacy disused tool, sort of a reference put aside anyway.
mircea_popescu: i am, but i don't wish to say exactly what i tested ;/
mircea_popescu: i've been burning at it for > month by now, but the ~7 different spots that at times seemed dubious carry no significance or import.,
asciilifeform: i can offer no logical explanation for ^
asciilifeform: but i could be wrong about this.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-08-2015#1245138 << i dare say that this or similar scenario is unlikely. the 'rent-a-slave' outfits are largely helpless when asked for anything other than wwwtronic proggy ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i thought you were on an entomological kick.
asciilifeform: if i had to guess, would guess that they farm it out filipino-style - but internally
mircea_popescu: "but i have deadlines!!!"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i don't actually think they were READY to deploy this autumn. irrespective of the september term they might or might not have lied to manageement about.
asciilifeform: actually iirc i did dig it out
mircea_popescu: i dunno why all the "bitcoin fork" derpage. this really is solidcoin v2.0
asciilifeform: translated for humans, means 'if you wanna talk, prove you're a leaf node running hearnia. and don't pretend to be infrastructural node, we know who they are already and i don't recall selling you a license'
BingoBoingo: Of course. I mean Mr. Tusk fucked the shit out of that penguin.
mircea_popescu: which is why the breach is particularly ruinous to them. as seinfeld said, "that's why divorce is so traumatic : you've been impeached, and i wasn't even the president!"
mircea_popescu: re the ashley madison thing, i believe it chiefly provides the same service faux exchanges etc provide to the click-bound generation. ie, they get to pretend like they're traders, don juans, what not, all from the safety of their own den, and - crucially - without actually doing it. ☟︎
hanbot: asciilifeform oh, i see. thanks!
mircea_popescu: im not saying you shouldn't read it or anything, but you asked me what i make of it. i don't.
hanbot: asciilifeform okay. but supposing i want to try out your versioning system & sign it and all, i -need- the "orchestra" build, do i not?
mircea_popescu: good for it. i dun know the author and don't care what he might wish to say one way or the other.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'm not reading random expose of random derp hoping to matter. sorry.
asciilifeform: screw this 'i ran an os in userland on other os because i needed a thesis 111!!111' shit.
asciilifeform: gimme all or nothing, i say.
asciilifeform: i will support plan9 (which, i dare say, is spiffy) long before ubuntu.
assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 02:24:39; mod6: asciilifeform: also, you know, i never did run vdiff.sh before on ubuntu (14.04), but when I was testing vdiff.sh before (few days ago) it was all on gentoo. vdiff.sh worked and still does work good on gentoo... but now I get this error when I run it on Ubuntu: http://dpaste.com/0RXRBNC.txt
mod6: yeah, i'll go through it closer tomorrow see if I can work it out.
asciilifeform: (i'm for abolishing those, on account of their profound uselessness...)
asciilifeform: you should get same thing i did, possibly excepting the timestamps
assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 02:20:07; hanbot: <mod6> asciilifeform: your step "2)", do you mean to indicate reference [1] instead of "also [3]" which is the email to chicken? << i must be dense, where's "bitcoin-0.5.3-no-crud.sha256.manifest"? i don't see it in 1), i don't see it in 3).
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-08-2015#1244909 << yes. and if anyone really wants me to gpg-sign this 'yes', i will ☝︎
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: No I did
pete_dushenski: i b0rked this formatting job
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I'm just giving you shit, but ...
pete_dushenski: i'll be sure to omit those next time, my apologies bb
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I'm cleaning it up, but can't be inserting extra style. Breaks the consisten qntra look.
pete_dushenski: i had it on 'justify' like i do on all contravex, then i remembered that qntra is 'left'
mod6: alright, so I created this script: http://dpaste.com/04DJKKA.txt to produce a vpatch as discussed in http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-August/000148.html : Here is the diff of the vdiff my script produced v. the one included with asciilifeform's email: http://dpaste.com/1ACSMBC.txt
mircea_popescu: shiiit i love reading my old stuff.
mircea_popescu: "There's absolutely no difference between Keiser's scamcoin and Gavin's scam coin as far as the network is concerned : while one's a scammer that I humiliatingly defeated in the past whereas the other a scammer that I humiliatingly defeat in the future, this makes no difference for Bitcoin."
mod6: asciilifeform: also, you know, i never did run vdiff.sh before on ubuntu (14.04), but when I was testing vdiff.sh before (few days ago) it was all on gentoo. vdiff.sh worked and still does work good on gentoo... but now I get this error when I run it on Ubuntu: http://dpaste.com/0RXRBNC.txt ☟︎
hanbot: <mod6> asciilifeform: your step "2)", do you mean to indicate reference [1] instead of "also [3]" which is the email to chicken? << i must be dense, where's "bitcoin-0.5.3-no-crud.sha256.manifest"? i don't see it in 1), i don't see it in 3). ☟︎
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: unless you're already writing up today's am break, i think i'll take a crack at it for qntra
mircea_popescu: concerned ceo told the clueless press "i don't even" in an emotionally charged meeting over tea tonight
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: ty, I hadn't checked to approve new commenters, so must still have cookie from original comment
pete_dushenski: "To M. Popescu: I apologize. I was arrogant and wrong and insulting."
BingoBoingo humble enough to assume if something doesn't work that I introduced the problem
asciilifeform: with 'breath of life', it is now possible to use 'v'. even though i have not given it to anyone yet...
asciilifeform: if anyone does not understand why i did this, or, alternatively, believes that this ought to have been done in some other way - please speak.
pete_dushenski: now that i slept through a fringe show this afternoon, i'm awake.
mircea_popescu: otherwise, i'm about as biased in favour of an empire of china as i'm biased in favour of an empire of grasshoppers.
asciilifeform: it is also where, i'm told, american pisswater beer was invented.
asciilifeform: where do i buy a ticket to, to see some ~people~ ?
mircea_popescu: what am i, an engineer now ? a scientist ? wtf is this pious fraud bs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am testing out my new just in time examples webservice, built on node.js and ruby on rails!
gribble: Fefeleaga. on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu.: <http://trilema.com/2015/fefeleaga/>; Popasul Fefeleaga - YouTube: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ti30gFW8GiM>; Asta-i Romania - Iti aduci aminte de Fefeleaga? Reporterii nostri au ...: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvysS6zgw1o>
mircea_popescu: (but i can bring same argument - hey, any PROPER romanovs the reds shot ?)
asciilifeform: i don't ask for the impossible! merely the 'romanov gold standard' of cleansing
BingoBoingo: I seriously going to have to work on the no SPV allowed problem. Why should "/bitcoinj:0.12.3/Bitcoin Wallet:4.35-blackberry/" even think it ough to be service by my node
mircea_popescu: (i'm doing alf in b-a of 1939 :D)
mircea_popescu: i'm sure they were all spies sent by stalin himself to lure the enemy into a false sense of confidence.
mircea_popescu: what, "i'm a boy from tenesee here to die for some fat bitch's right to marry her dog" ? ☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/lJC5lxu.gif
BingoBoingo: I have as many connections form "subver" : "/Atdollar:0.10.2/" as XT nao
mircea_popescu: <trinque>and I would expect a military dictatorship period directly following the fall of usg << IF you can find a certain corporal in the army that will get badly defeated and who resents the coupla decades of peace which consist mostly of american teenagers being used as public toilets from rashapur to ankara, then yes, maybe, dictatorship.
mircea_popescu: <mats>militaries require competent leadership. when i say existential threat, i do not mean ISIS will march on DC << it doesn't want or need to march in dc. all it conceivably might want is to pull a rotherham over at vassar.
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field>trinque: the next major usg trend is 'demand destruction' << i suspect this is what 2015 stalin would have called dekulakization.
mircea_popescu: <trinque>am I wrong in understanding that there is still a considerable Russian military? << you are wrong in imagining there's any sort of continuity. present day russian military shares nothing at all with the one that ended, and is almost entirely putin's making.
mircea_popescu: <trinque>I would really like to understand this logic by which the entire US military vanishes << the "entrie us military" long ago vanished. it now consists of boys playing video games and girls playing the tomboy. that is not an army, it's a psycho patient support group.
mircea_popescu: the middle east ? i forget.
mircea_popescu: it makes for a decent contrast, which i guess is what all humor comes from.
bitcoinfailed: no i dont have much to say, i will occasionally read your musings on trilema
mircea_popescu: i feel kinda scammed, those !up s go for like a bitcoin each iirc.
trinque: oh I see what that site does.
ascii_field: punkman: i couldn't possibly say whether it tells the truth
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i think this is good for bitcoin!
punkman: what was it, "give me all your cc info so I can check if it's stolen?"
punkman: "Truth is, this service never quite delivered on their promise. When my last two startups closed shop, it took shutdownify over 3 days to process the first one, and the second was still a full two days to get up and running. At that point I could have just put together a page myself. It didn't help that they rewrote their tech stack from Ruby to Node even as they were trying to find customers. "
mircea_popescu: not all, i'm sure.
mircea_popescu: i think he's being jew-funny.
trinque: I recall because that's what he said in response to asking whether he was guilty of w/e chargers
phf: bitch, i mybe, i mybe
thestringpuller: "Put Molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it / I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it." - Rick Ross
ascii_field: i suspect it's coming off conveyor as we speak.
mircea_popescu: the time i consider changing off rsa is a time after i've taken a piss on the ruins of the white house.
ascii_field: in fact, now i recall that this is already happening
mircea_popescu: i would very much like to get better "humint" work put in.
ascii_field: i am right because i have instrumented machines for this.
mircea_popescu: it might be the DISK cache, i guess
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i, too, tested.
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why this is.
