mats:
i'm under the mistaken impression that USG only gives contracts to US corps
mats:
i don't know much about how procurement and acquisitions works
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
i suspect the usg policy against private small arms has finally found the chokehold : drive the manufacturers out of business. << Most of the good "Colt" designs are now made better by others. Argentinas Taurus is one.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: <ascii_field>
i consider this to be a necessary thing << it is.

BingoBoingo:
I tend to just... clean up the blood. They are disease carrying organisms and deserve nothing but lethal intent.
ascii_field:
i encountered a good number of mosquitoes in b-a but none bit me. couldn't help but think of the old sf stories re: creatures on alien planet unable to eat (or be eaten by) us on account of wrong protein chirality
mircea_popescu: so there was a blood gorged mosquito on the wall. as
i didn't want to leave a splotch,
i hit it in such a manner as to only dizzy it.
i can now disable-shot mosquitors.
mod6: <+ascii_field> sometimes
i log in from the car. <<
i can just imagine you driving around the beltway with your knee irc'ing from a phone.
ascii_field:
i offered many times to teach her to drive, but she was sharp enough to grasp that this meant 'more chores' and didn't bite
pete_dushenski: but
i guess now we know where cardano delivery went : commuting
cazalla:
i'm sure
i've mentioned it before but cabbies go around performing citizen's arrest on uber drivers down under
ascii_field: pete_dushenski:
i didn't used to. worked mostly from home for a long time

i don need no fucking employment
shinohai:
I mean, their must be some way to identify trusted clients
mod6: <+ascii_field> << you can ~already~ specify seeds on cmdline and config! all that remains is the removal of the built-in seeder crap << sure, you can do addnode or whatnot to connect to other nodes. but isn't the dyndns thing to tell others what your nodes ip address is? maybe
i misunderstand ...
shinohai:
I failed to see that before BingoBoingo pointed out the obvious benefits of finding pre-gavinized nodes with it.
ascii_field: (
i.e. connecting gavinized nodes masquerading under old version strings)
ascii_field:
i expect this will change, suddenly and possibly undetectably, once they start fucking with it
shinohai:
I'm down for the irc mechanism,
i really like it but not as it is now
ascii_field: and
i say 'hey hey, ho ho,' dns 'has got to go!'
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 23:10:19; mod6: <+mod6> <+ascii_field>
i'm in favour of keeping the irc mechanism for now, because it will handily transplant to gossipd <<
i'm with you here... although, just looking through irc.cpp again.. im not sure how much of that would carry over anyhow. << regardless, it doesn't mean we have to rip it out this minute. how insane of an idea is it to just snip out the checkip.dyndns.org parts and add a commandline/confi
ascii_field: (
i don't want ~anything~ to do with a leaking node)
mod6: <+kakobrekla> would a dedi ba seed be welcome << yeah,
i think that's the idea eventually.

i imagine they will have to ask for new bids.

mod6: np. so,
i'm gonna keep focus on this Gentoo GCC patching stuff for the time being. But meanwhile
I do that on my POS box (Now running Gentoo AMD64 hardened w/uclibc),
I can shutdown the Gentoo aws instance and fire-up a deb6 test with these new patches before the end of the month
I'm sure.
ascii_field:
i.e. everything inside a patch file must pertain only to what was 'printed on the box', and vice-versa.
mod6: yup,
i see that. thanks for linking them in the patch emails.
ascii_field:
i'm half-certain that last one actually removes a vuln
shinohai: The Deb one stays up all the time,
I just leave it running since
I need a daemon anyway.
shinohai: Nah the Debian one,
I built Ubuntu on a friends server
mod6: So once the Guides are handed over to hanbot,
I'll refocus my attention to patching gcc 4.8.4 on Gentoo to see if we can get around that bug that we were discussing the other day.
mats: OPM servers in FY 2014… NMG has documented accepted weaknesses for OPM user workstations; however, it has not fully documented weaknesses for servers or databases (
i.e., vulnerability scan findings that are justified by a business need). This recommendation remains open from FY 2011 and is rolled forward in FY 2014.
thestringpuller: ascii_field: damn. 20 mph average speed?!?
i would have to pop anxiety pills.
shinohai:
I hate touchscreen keyboards.
I really do.
mod6:
I could start it back up again and do something else if you like. But have finally gotten a guide created for Gentoo on Physical hardware. It needs 2 general tweaks (to be put in tonight) before
I hand over to hanbot for testing.
ascii_field: kakobrekla: ~70/day assuming
i go nowhere else (buying food, detours around jams, etc)
mod6: <+ascii_field> mod6: how are those test rigs doing ? < << If you mean the bitcoin-v0.5.3.1-RELEASE + patch(s) { Orphanage Thermonuke + TX Orphanage Amputation }, they were performed on AWS deb6 instance and have since been shutdown after full sync & performance tests completed. Main reason being to dig into compiling v0.5.3.1 + gentoo sanity patches with uclibc on Gentoo on AWS Gentoo instance.
I try to only run one instance at a time to keep mo
jurov:
i don't remember using taxi from/to airport
mircea_popescu: which
i would loathe, as
i routinely reject living anywhere with shitty cabs
shinohai:
I like farmers markets though. Fresh organic veggies if possible.
ascii_field: and
i don't want to see ads for shitpaper in my mailbox
ascii_field:
i'd get toilet paper, etc. on 'amazon' if it weren't for the fact that everything you buy affects your 'recommendations'
shinohai: If Amazon delivered groceries in my area,
I might never leave home.
ascii_field:
i barely ever get anything in any other way
mircea_popescu: tbh
i never ordered anything online in romania, either.
ascii_field: and yes,
i know that mircea_popescu can get ru chocolate delivered via biplane right to his dirigible in antarctica.
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 14:57:39; asciilifeform: can
i get real (read: ru or identical) chocolate there? at what cost/gram ?
ben_vulpes:
i'm still working to get the damn thing to build on ubuntu
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 14:47:41; jurov: also,
i don't get how anyone in this age can *not* have some foreign acquaintances that one can be sure to not throw him under the bus
shinohai:
I haven't applied those patches yet :/
ascii_field: ben_vulpes:
i would like to nominate above patch (and its dependency, dns-seed-remover) for mainline
shinohai: will do.
I have tons of reading to catch up on this evening.
ascii_field:
i specifically wish to drive the bulldozer personally
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell pete_dushenski the hunag fellow is exactly the right example.
i even hinted at him but never mentionmed the name when discussiong o'brian idiocy in 1984 and how the rebellion properly works.
ascii_field: in other news,
i dreamed last night that ft meade had been turned into a kind of city-state, and
i came through it for some peculiar reason. it very crowded and full of rough-looking folks, like d.c. subway. went into a pub, full of demented old beggars, and pulled out a wad of 'nsa money' - shit-brown 'hundies' with portraits of some senator on them. in return got glass of water.
mircea_popescu:
i recall family friend being very insulted by my dad laughing his ass off
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 19:04:54; mircea_popescu: ascii_field yes
i know what those are,
i pay five to six figures to china each month k ?
thestringpuller:
I like how they publicized BIP-100 with "This won't require a hardfork" while the PDF clearly states "Oh yea guise we need to remove the cap completely to make this change."
mircea_popescu: anyway.
i'll allow the shitmedia to set the discussion agenda the morning after
i let gavin impregnate my wife.
danielpbarron: and by "invalid address"
i mean that
i'm not about to do business with someone who insists
I acknowledge "multi sig" is a thing
menahem: ok ty.

menahem: not sure why
I got the error, lemme double check quick. my apologies.

I think we will close this thread as there is nothing more to discuss. This is not about democracy or censorship, but about keeping our hobby alive without authorities enforcing new laws in order to limit ADS-B usage."
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 13:58:39; asciilifeform: and often there are interesting hidden costs. for instance,
i am somewhat limited in what surplus junk
i can use on account of lacking 3-phase mains power

i remember a day, not so many years ago, when people actually went on trips to check out claims of "hey
i goit some images in photoshop" miners. how much things have changed in these few short years...
ascii_field: and did
i just land in my grandfather's office in 1985 , fell through time warp? how did we come to wonder about authenticity of fucking soviet rubber stamps ?!
mircea_popescu: unlike apparently everyone on the retard side,
i actually have some business experience
