ascii_field: motherfuckers
i just want a piece of silicon that samples 16 lines at 1G/s and clocks out the bits to pci-e lanes.
ascii_field: decimation: as far as
i can tell, they do not offer a logic analyzer with sane pc link
mircea_popescu: mod6 the problem is that most people don't have a lot of o-bsd experience. and
i don't just mean most people here, but generally. hard to sell that thing as an "all purpose b-a basis of bases"
mod6: eh.
i'm not sure yet.
i'm getting to the point with this thing where
i realize at least 1 thing:
I don't have the technical experience in the context of gentoo to get us where we want to go in a timly fashion. My experience in gentoo has been for 6 weeks, never used it before that. Everything has been a struggle here, for me. Not that
I can't do it all myself, but
I feel like it's taking me waaay too long. Maybe
I just had bad expectations as

i need to get back to winning here. been losing to gentoo for 6 weeks.
ascii_field: if
i have a steady state, it needs to show - that.
mircea_popescu:
i doubt vice has that much readership, notwithstanding the count of clucking clickers clicking around.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo anyway, pretty good,
i see pretty much no article qntra published this month got less than 1k reads THIS MONTH. last months pushing 5-10 depending. it's not bad by any measure.
trinque:
I look forward to the day when somebody makes their way inside NSA systems and starts dumping data from there.
ascii_field: why the fuck would
i pay for a machine with a 128kB buffer and 1G/s sample rate ?
mircea_popescu: soo... quantcast "upgraded" its site, now
i can no longer see the graphs.
decimation: ascii_field: yeah
I have a friend who used to work at HP developing logic analyzers
decimation: ascii_field: yeah
I read your bitching
decimation:
I also admit that rhel7 is a clusterfuck
decimation:
I do admit that when
I've tried openbsd
I've been impressed by the presence of actual documentation
ascii_field:
i find all unixlikes but gentoo and freebsd to be quite unusable for daily work
decimation: it forced me to learn why
I don't want the latest of everything
decimation: trinque: trust me
I've lived on gentoo for years
trinque: decimation:
I probably understand more about redhat's stable target than your garden-variety redhat user because
I've used gentoo for so long
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 18:06:34; ascii_field:
i have no idea how anyone is able to get serious work done outside of gentoo
shinohai: but,
i couldn't resist a play on the yeshiva theme.
shinohai:
i have jewish family. im not religious myself in any traditional sense.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu ask tsp
i guess :D
fluffypony: [19:59:12] <Relos>
I can hear mary antoinette saying: "let them eat cake"
ascii_field: and
i should point out that in my mind gentoo is defined by ~absences~ of crud, rather than specific attributes which are ~present~
mod6: but im positive that
i'd never get it configured correctly to use uclibc and whatever other configurations are required to even test this patch. even if
I get the patch to work, how am
I supposed to get this into such a state that someone else can repeat it?
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 18:19:28; mod6:
i mean,
i can't seem to get anywhere with anything without major time involved and serious pain.
mod6: could
I just pull down gcc-4.8.4 itself and patch? sure. it'd be a lot easier.
mod6: <+nubbins`> you can't get a bash prompt? << for instance on my POS box that
I bought for $129.00 an x86_64 core2duo,
I can't even install the os. All
i can do is boot the livecd, do the chroot stuff, and then end up at the grub> prompt upon reboot. when it comes to my instance in AWS,
i've had better luck, but doing stuff for me is so time consuming. in this case,
i need to get gcc recompiled with patches to see if we can get past this error we
mod6: what
i'm sayin is this: without expert knowledge of how to use gentoo,
I can't do what needs to be done in a reasonable amount of time. everyting for me in there is arduous, painstaking.
jurov:
i'm use it daily as my desktop. for years and yes, pls sepcifics
mod6: naw,
i have no preconceptions about anything. im talking about using this thing.
mod6:
i mean,
i can't seem to get anywhere with anything without major time involved and serious pain.
☟︎☟︎ nubbins`: mod6
i compiled bitcoind on gentoo
nubbins`: gentoo was chosen,
i believe, at the behest of alf
mod6: after 6 weeks, all that
I can conclude about gentoo is it's basically unuseable.
shinohai:
I havent picked up gentoo yet :/
mod6:
i need to get back to winning here. been losing to gentoo for 6 weeks.
☟︎ nubbins`: so
i popped a brand-new piece of mesh this morning
ascii_field:
i have no idea how anyone is able to get serious work done outside of gentoo
☟︎ ascii_field: at close range,
i'd rather take nagant bullet than a bolt from arbalest (if decently constructed)
jurov: okay. so
i'd combine different wavelengths diodes then. still more easily to obtain here than nagant parts and ammo
nubbins`:
i still think he used a lens to focus the beams 8)
nubbins`:
i could do better with a lens on a sunny day
nubbins`: that said,
i was pretty unimpressed with the amount of time it took to light paper on fire
nubbins`: ascii_field
i think he used a lens to focus the discrete beams
trinque: jurov:
I already see him in that thread
pete_dushenski: after taking public transport for an hour each way to class when it was only a 10-minute drive,
i started caring about cars pretty quickly
pete_dushenski: then computers came along and
i didn't give a shit about cars until 2nd year university
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 01:41:21; asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: these remind me of an ancient car

i still can't make any sense of it
mircea_popescu: Sir Thomas More: Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man's laws, not God's! And if you cut them down, and you're just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes,
I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safe
☟︎ mircea_popescu: William Roper: Yes,
I'd cut down every law in England to do that!
nubbins`: googling "dustin paxton" brings pics of the victim, but
i can't recommend you look at them
mircea_popescu:
i am at this point judging by the implicit cues and my understanding/preconceived notions re a functional police force that they most likely got their man.
nubbins`: asciilifeform half the kids

nubbins`: mircea_popescu depends on whether
