phf: i normally read btcbase with nick=phf, but it's not been "announced" because back&forward arrows don'
t preserve the parameters, something i've been meaning to add for a while now
mircea_popescu: phf, possibly add a line somewhere in there, maybe as a tooltip ? so i don'

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes, i don'

BingoBoingo: ckang: You could always get your own turbine and go off the grid if you prefer something different. Turbine isn'
t picky about fuels.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, you don'
t deepcycle it. that's why you pile a lot of them.
ckang: i could probably even re-use a solar panel BMS system and a decent PSU, charging rate isn'
t super critical or often
BingoBoingo: ckang: If your wattage needs aren'
t incredible you could always go the smoke detector RTG route
mircea_popescu: finally coming out of the massive bender at t2, the dude WOULD STILL LIKE TO EAT. how would you eat if you were him ? would you give up, do something else with your time ? he doesn'

mircea_popescu: you understand that the difference between the ill-pay-for-your-tits value-evaluation-function over this field of items and the anything-else value-evaluation-function over the same field isn'
t 10x or 100x, either. people routinely have trouble extracting as much as a cent per thousand ; that'd be 10e6x
douchebag: well, I mean if you didn'

t, i believe there's an antecedent->dependency transformation issues (i.e. the transform in mod6 v is adhoc, so it can'

mircea_popescu: think about it -- the sort of people who'd publish idiotic crap a la tor docker etc LIKE the meat injection. and the sort of people who'd protest don'
t get involved with that.
ckang: im surprised we haven'

mircea_popescu: usg trying to leverage the fact that idiots stick together whereas intelligent people jwz, into this situation where they keep shitting turds larger than what you can fit in head and so "one man's guess is as good as any other's" and "we don'

☟︎ spyked: ^ my point in the first place. POSIX ACL was designed from the idea that "all users are equal, except /a/b can be accessed only by X and /c/d only by Y etc.". while saying that "Z can only access /e/f" can only be implemented as "/a/b and /c/d and etc. can'
t be accessed by Z". and sure, there's chroot, that sets /e/f to /, but in practice this introduces other issues

hanbot:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-19#1803390 << exactly, that blew my mind. no idea why limiting someone to their homedir should be complicated either. isn'
t keeping users cloistered like...the fucking reason a "users" system even exists? what else is it for, personalized wallpaper?

☟︎ mircea_popescu: understand, this model whereby user falls into root because "we couldn'
t open the subdir you should have" is the lulz of all time.
spyked: anyway, I'm sure that this can be enforced by having all the other users except the "limited user" deny rwx access to their dirs. but this doesn'
t say anything about the "limited user" explicitly, only implicitly. kinda like in that joke with enclosing the sheep using as little fence material as possible.
BingoBoingo: !Q later tell avgjoe I don'
t talk to strangers in private
phf: i should probably test it at some point in isolation. it would be a pointless exercise though since i don'
t have a 20MBit/s pipe out anyway. perhaps the value might be "look at what custom board can do compared to this chinese crap", but i somehow doubt that would be the result.
trinque: idea that the chinese wouldn'
t diddle cryptography devices they export is pretty entertaining.
lobbes: I was having issues with the logbot init step (wasn'
t pulling the patch into patches)
lobbes: ah can'
t complain. Trying to get logbot up and running (was able to successfully press the ircbot genesis and test it on my local machine the other night)
spyked: also, kinda what got me thinking about the whole "general-purpose os" thing a while ago. POSIX ACL wasn'
t designed to be very flexible, it assumes some level of trust in the processes running on the box (the Unix notion of "user" is attached to processes, while that of "permission" is tied to files)
trinque: nah, I'm told my head wasn'
t as squashy as they often are
☟︎ trinque: evolution didn'
t give a damn when standing upright came along.
trinque: anyhow I don'

a111: Logged on 2018-04-19 03:33 tidbitnipply: Oh please, he wouldn'
t tell me that in person
mircea_popescu: that's not how it works. you're not in control in any sort of meaningful sense, it's not that you're limiting yourself or aren'
t limiting youself. with a history people can say meaningful things to youi ; without, they can'
t. that's pretty much the whole story.
ckang: well i don'
t want to limit myself to only things ive done
a111: Logged on 2018-04-19 04:36 trinque: ckang: listen, why don'

☟︎ ascii_lander: ckang: it isn'

trinque: it's a kernel decision anyway, I don'
t care to make it in either direction. server doesn'
t need sound
trinque: k but this isn'
t a discussion of our favorite distros
trinque: swapping init is gonna make porting over ebuilds a little harder, which isn'
t a reason to avoid it by itself, but is a cost.
BingoBoingo: trinque: Vortage is the big sell, but saner user toileting defaults could also make it in. Because ain'
t nobody got time fo dat.
trinque: portage isn'
t a proggy on gentoo; it is gentoo.
mircea_popescu: hanbot, well, don'
t go dropping credentials for "accounts" on that box lol.
trinax: Sorry marker didn'
t want to spit ink very well
BingoBoingo: I honestly don'
t think alf did a less than 15 km day here with yesterday being the short one. The others are all easily over 20 km
mircea_popescu: doesn'
t she carry a frown worth a thousand bucks. what do you do for a living lilmzthang , accounts collecting ?
trinax: I don'
t know but if you find him tell him I said hi
ben_vulpes: or stainless, excuse me i have to go unstick my eyes from all the rolling back in my head i can'
t keep them from
lilmzthang: Oh I can'
t do all that, but I can move the sliders around and press auto adjust 😁
BingoBoingo: mod6: It doesn'

mod6: (In case you didn'

douchebag: So if you wouldn'
t mind verifying her OTP
mircea_popescu: in unrelated news : i can'
t recommend the dsc-rx100 quite warmly enough. it's a splendid sony compact with zeiss lenses that's easily the best camera i ever saw.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: mod6, i don'
t even think it can'
t be the blog. just you know, have buncha pics directly visible.
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander, the way i'm seeing it is, we can'
t really deny item to the pizarro folk, if indeed they sell out all the rest of their space and we're not using our box we'll kinda have to sell it to them. IF.
mircea_popescu: well i mean, you don'
t have a standard that's comprehensible from the oustide, as it stands now.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes, you'll have to have some words in that board of yours ; on one hand this is outright offensive, and im quite considering unrating you for it ; on the other hand ascii_lander can'
t be hurring about what people ~might~ do while you folk are out there dealing with the declared enemy.
ben_vulpes: shit damn if i weren'
t running a radon test right now the whole neighborhood would be listening to mathieu
mircea_popescu: but on the other hand, peasant ACTUALLY HAD TO MAKE the dough in question. wasn'
t just passive recipient of imaginary govt printouts.
mircea_popescu: sandi3, what that and which country ? gypsies don'
t have a country.
sandi3: But I don'
t read many books, before you ask 😀
mircea_popescu: isn'

douchebag: mircea_popescu: She wasn'

mircea_popescu: heh. trilema doesn'

ckang hasn'
