shinohai: If you happen
to dig it up at some point, I would greatly appreciate copy
spyked dug for
that one as well (w3m-js), seems
to be gone
shinohai: For a while I really liked
the w3m browser,
there was rumored
to be js plugin for it,
though link
to original www is ded and I cannot find info on it anywhere.
mircea_popescu: now
this i have nfi why would occur.
the exact details are buried somewhere in archives, but it's been a while ;/
spyked: "#selection-21.75-21.93" doesn't exist." (which leads me
to believe
that no JavaScript code is being run, although JavaScript *is* enabled at run-time!); links (probably mircea_popescu's browser)
throws out some explicit javascript errors (doesn't parse ===
token), but
this because it has it's own parser/interpreter.
shinohai: btw, I rather liked
the pics mircea_popescu posted of church in latest
trilema. Nifty.
mircea_popescu: apparently
they don't kick you out of church if you suck at singing.
this is a problem.
mircea_popescu: in other news, ended up in local church after walk
this morning. had
to leave once priest showed up and
the womenz starting "singing" an hymn
☟︎ shinohai: Jeez I almost don't want
to have a news/rss feed open until
this "I was raped" spam is over with.
ben_vulpes: usg dept of robocars cannot actually meet production quotas, chicken-buying-dollars will have
to be spent with volvo of all corps

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-20#1741262 <-- I
tried building a long
time ago, but couldn't get it
to do js. I'll give it a second shot. will also
try
to link js library against libc without unicode support (it seems links depends on libmozjs). /me adds another write-up
to
the list for when he gets
this
to work.
ben_vulpes: in other lols,
tesla failed
to close
the deal
to supply uber with self-driving cars
mircea_popescu: whichever beobachter you choose can NOT drive enough
traffic
to make up a
trilema minute.
mircea_popescu: "Since
Travels with Samantha was getting 100,000 hits/day,
the spillover from
there into my research area was actually good for more exposure
than my paper would have gotten from
the conference proceedings." << way
the fuck
truer in 2017
than it was in 1994.

to be "removing legacy BIOS support from client and data center platforms." Based on
the
timing, it's
then looking like for Intel
Tiger Lake or Sapphire Rapids where
they may cut off

trinque: nope, have several improvements
to
the paybot (and cutting off
the
trb wallet) ahead of
that
jhvh1: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i just want, from a strategic perspective,
the
tool whereby
to be able
to force a wedge among "website owners" and have
them upgrade whether
they want
to or not, off
the imperial
tree.
shinohai: From @blockchain "We are experiencing an outage of our internal database. Your funds are safe. We've identified
the issue and are working on a resolution. Stay updated at
https://www.blockchain-status.com"
mircea_popescu: ah, it'd have
to live as wrapper on
tmsr scheme would it
mircea_popescu: implements some fraction of extant js functions, which we deem
to be ALL of js, and some extras.
mircea_popescu: why not ? phf';s logotron posts
them correctly, as /x whatevers
mircea_popescu: confiscate javascript from w3c by writing a subset from
the pov of
the republican lord, not from
the pov of
the bankrupt usg remoras
trying
to pretend like
they're "online companies" "making money"
mircea_popescu: spyked actually a limited js lib
to replace libmozjs would kick ass.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 14:44 mircea_popescu: i remember
testing against it back when i put
that
thing in

this week-end. managed

mircea_popescu: needs a special compile
time flag and
then a config diddle
spyked: mircea_popescu, js browser (e.g. firefox)
that allows linking
trilema snippets.
the only reason I still keep one around.
mircea_popescu: my software consists of mostly bash,
these days. what software ?
a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 10:07 mircea_popescu: (notes : desomorphine, item standing with heroin in about same relation
tub-brewed methamphetamine stands with adderall)
spyked: mircea_popescu, problem isn't whether unicode is needed. but
that "modern" software insists on shoving "support" down one's
throat. it can be removed, of course (either support or software altogether), only I suspect
the pile of unicode-enhanced crap yet hides some useful items.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 09:59 mircea_popescu: if
these kinds of non-items, memetic prions are anywhere in your mental space, you're suffering, from a disease. "if you're reading it, it's for you", and it's for you because you've already got a heavy load of misfolded protein.
mircea_popescu: anyway, eulora client is specifically left as exercise
to eulora player. can make it do anything you wish.
mircea_popescu: spyked what software do you use
that relies on unicode and why do you.

trinque, ftr, I
tried getting a uclibc system up, but it seems
to lack e.g. localization support, which didn't get me very far. will have
to give
this another shot on
the next box I get up (which might not even be an x86 box; or else, it will be a pcengines).
spyked: remaining problem is
that it also needs
to be cut out of software
that relies on it. or eliminating such software altogether (this includes a large part of GUI software stack; did eulora go
through
the "needs locale" experience?).
mircea_popescu: so not having such support saves you
the
trouble of having
to cut it out later ?
shinohai: I
think if one needs support for languages, etc?

☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 14:06 mircea_popescu: glib is slated
to stop compiling ?
spyked: shinohai, pretty good. gentoo diddling. I'm
trying
to get a new box up, learn v, compile
trb, add an ada in, learn lisp internals ... (the list continues)
a111: Logged on 2017-11-18 22:19 ben_vulpes: hey
trinque do you still have
that script for "infectious gentoo"? i might be able
to get my old closet iron with 4.9
to build a respectable userland
shinohai: For me it was rather like building a model airplane, box of parts "Here, build
this". Sometimes I wanted
to just dump it all in
the
trash and just get high on
the glue but persistence pays off I suppose.
shinohai: Yeah I switched 100% gentoo ~1 year ago, props
to
trinque for his patience with me.
shinohai: Current setup will build Eulora and
trb like a dream, with nary a barf like I experienced in my old deb days
a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 13:59 spyked: for
the record,
the steps described in
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-20#1741187 work *today*. it will be increasingly harder
to get a sane system once glib stops compiling with gcc 4.9, etc. an archaelogical approach would be
to freeze
the current state of
the gentoo mirrors and build own stage1, stage2 etc. from scratch with known-working libc versions etc.
shinohai:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-20#1741203 <<< I would like
to help ( I believe it was mod6
that mentioned it previously) set up some sort of mirror for just
this purpose, because yes outside
things will become unreliable sooner rather
than later.

☝︎☟︎ spyked adds
this
to list of write-ups.
mircea_popescu: it is ~extremely~ important
to write
these, much more so
than can be evaluated at
the present
time.
the value becomes evident mostly in retrospect.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 12:33 spyked: @world,
though
this is not needed in early install); 5. send gcc 5.4 into oblivion (should have no dependencies left by now). I can do a more detailed write-up if still needed.
spyked: (in other cockphemisms: carici, calabastoc;
the latter,
to my knowledge, does not exist in dictionaries, being entirely of rural origin)

to stain, or rather, daub)

the discussion: are regionalisms, archaisms, etc.
to be included in
this dict, or are
they separate item? example: belengher (plus expr. "a festeli belengherul", similar in meaning
to "a caca steagul" mentioned earlier by diana_coman)
