asciilifeform: Landgull: i happen to have been born there.
Landgull: Most of the things you're saying are what I thought before I actually got on an airplane and came here.
decimation: I was under the impression that they wanted to recreate the waffen ss
decimation: I was unaware that generals took the opinion of their troops into account
Landgull: I've heard the Phillipines are good. I've never been there.
Landgull: And I'm not suggesting Lviv as the destination of the century - like I said, I'm here to meet the girlfriend's family.
BingoBoingo: <Landgull> Plus, as I said, the USgov owns the UAgov, but unlike the US where the government really effects your life, the government here is a mass of incompetent bureaucracy without any serious ability to organize anything. << Kinda why Phillipines is on my exit candidate list. Massively orchish and USG proving proving ground for cultural failures.
Landgull: Well, I'm not trying to be here on a permanent visa.
Landgull: Plus, as I said, the USgov owns the UAgov, but unlike the US where the government really effects your life, the government here is a mass of incompetent bureaucracy without any serious ability to organize anything. ☟︎
BingoBoingo: But I am terribly resigned to being low on the cue
asciilifeform: Landgull: the queue must be long, i'm still waiting to be gassed, give'em some time
BingoBoingo: Landgull: I am terribly worried of that.
Landgull: Ascii: There is no actual food available in the US unless you grow it yourself. Seriously. I didn't think it was that bad until I ate real food. As for the flashbangs: people get no-knocked all the time. You're the ones saying they're going to send death-squads to Ukraine after me, but you're not worried about them doing the same to you from in their backyard?
BingoBoingo: <Landgull> If you just don't want flashbangs coming in your window and poisonous food, then you can have a much better life outside of the US. << I have yet to seem flashbangs tyvm. I just has a single FBI agent and single treasury agent sweating on my front lawn like the hambeasts they were.
Landgull: My girlfriend is from here. Her family likes me. If it were THAT dire, I'd go run away to their village and help them grow food.
Landgull: Sure. But I'd expect your chances are better in a country where the government is essentially non-existent than they are somewhere that they know where you are and can knock on your door.
trinque: Landgull: I'd expect some tumultuous years before that's complete
Landgull: Before I came here, I would have said the same thing.
asciilifeform: and when i say 'out', i mean 'out'
asciilifeform: i want out of u.s. on -my- terms
asciilifeform: Landgull: then you have a catastrophic misconception of what i would like to do.
Landgull: I'd mention that I'm out here doing what you claim to want to do.
Landgull: Ascii: 1) I can buy a plane ticket somewhere else if a real invasion happened. 2) If the Russians came into the Ukrainian speaking part of Ukraine, they'd be fighting a massive guerrilla war...they're succeeding in Donetsk and Luhansk because the people there are Russians and have a Russian identity.
decimation: I want a remote console for my server
decimation: asciilifeform: I bought one of those termteks, gonna see if it works
Landgull: I know all about Nuland.
Landgull: But I'm not advocating trying to migrate to North Korea.
Landgull: ...I'm telling you from having been to a number of places and talked to a number of people, I've yet to meet anyone who hates American people.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the only reason you and i even can afford food is that he doesn't need all of it
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: this is the reason you can't buy so much as a square metre in, e.g., patagonia. that is, if you and i can afford it, ted turner can afford 1,000,000+ of it and at 1000x bid ☟︎
Landgull: I guess it depends on what pieces of life you consider living. I'm not arguing that it's easier to get out of the US, if it were easier it would be done.
Landgull: Fair points as well. And I'm not suggesting Lviv as a specific destination, I'm here meeting the girlfriend's family - though it's really quite a nice city.
decimation: sure, dollar pollution is high in the us, but that's where I'm stuck. like ascii, my wot is here
Landgull: Decimation: As do I. But that's much easier to achieve when your expenses are $500, not $5,000.
decimation: Landgull: I desire to work 0 hours per month for someone else
asciilifeform: Landgull: presently i work on automation of reverse-engineering on x86. prior to that, as a reverse engineer. prior to that, high-performance computing for biotech, as sole programmer in entire outfit
Landgull: Fair enough. All I know is that I'd plow fields to avoid going back to the US.
asciilifeform: Landgull: i must refer you to the logs. it is difficult to describe
asciilifeform: if i were smart enough for this, would not be living in usa now.
BingoBoingo: <Landgull> I'm in Lviv, Ukraine right now. I can walk down to the market and buy a kilo of fresh strawberries for the local equivalent of $.50, and a bottle of vodka for $2.50 << Welcome to my back yard
Landgull: I'm in Lviv, Ukraine right now. I can walk down to the market and buy a kilo of fresh strawberries for the local equivalent of $.50, and a bottle of vodka for $2.50
decimation: Landgull: I think ascii's goal is to sleep ad libitum
asciilifeform: Landgull: i'd rather be boiled for soap ☟︎
Landgull: Fair enough. I haven't been to Georgia yet, I'm hoping to visit sometime in the next few months.
BingoBoingo: Landgull: I've got ideas, just working on means of execution. Georgia doesn't seem like a good fit.
trinque: I have a buddy learning that now
BingoBoingo: My nothing consists of an ongoing misdemeanor legal case that constrains my travel (2 years nao) and older relatives I help to keep out of the nursing home.
asciilifeform: i recently learned, to some surprise, that ru is now a destination for immigrants
Landgull: Fair enough. I established Paraguayan legal residency a while back as a way to 1) have legal residence in a 0% tax area and 2) have a guaranteed place I'm allowed to go if the world suddenly decides that it doesn't really want Americans hanging about.
trinque: my life's pretty good, but as long as I'm here I'm no better than a happy citizen of the reich
asciilifeform: i beg to differ, it's pretty bad with nothing
BingoBoingo: Landgull: Atm USia isn't so bad because I have nothing.
BingoBoingo: Landgull: I'd like to travel though as nobody
mircea_popescu: i'd prolly just go back to a life of murder.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if every time i went to buy a quart of milk the teller asked me what time it is...
assbot: Logged on 03-06-2015 03:27:28; decimation: I donno, I didn't program it. I still remember cursing portage a decade ago while recompiling X again
BingoBoingo: brb, seeing if I can do chin ups
BingoBoingo: In other news, training to get into shape for boxing training is progressing nicely. 80 pushups yesterday... May be able to try a boxing gym next year. Would be nice if I could line it up with USian exodus ☟︎
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel if you're going to be doing code preservation you prolly want to hash and deed like i did on the eulora binaries for nvidia drivers.
decimation: I thought funtoo used rhel kernels
gabriel_laddel: also, I've a frozen stage3 tarball you may want to use
mircea_popescu: heh i guess so
decimation: I tend to agree that expiration dates don't belong on keys
mod6: if all else fails, i'll give your guide a shot.
mod6: gabriel_laddel: werd. it /seems/ right. but like I said, maybe another look will tell the tale. i'll be checking it out more tomorrow.
gabriel_laddel: mod6: I'd compare your fdisk -l /dev/sda with the contents of /etc/fstab
decimation: I donno, I didn't program it. I still remember cursing portage a decade ago while recompiling X again ☟︎
mod6: i basically created a livecd, did everything as instructed through the gentoo handbook.
mod6: but when i boot up, i get "grub2> " prompt and then shit like this: "(hd0) (hd0,msdos1) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos4) (fd0)"
mod6: thanks, just took a look. im not even sure my problems are gentoo related exactly. i think i have a good /etc/fstab. and i /think/ my partition table was setup correctly with fdisk. this pos box had win7 on it, im guessing it's MBR and not EFI.
gabriel_laddel: hence, I reccomend waiting on the automated install
mircea_popescu: i feel encouraged.
mod6: i'll try it out. i hosed up my grub; haven't had a chance to tinker/rebuild yet.
gabriel_laddel: mod6: I have a *working* funtoo install guide, which is for all intents and purposes the same as gentoo
assbot: Logged on 03-06-2015 00:40:32; alphonse23_: I've actually been meaning to start using a key locker or something
mircea_popescu: thing is... i might be the only suit that can tell the difference between bad and good code, on account of being the only suit that is also literate. as in, literature-literate.
mircea_popescu: "Back to that two page function. Yes, I know, it's just a simple function to display a window, but it has grown little hairs and stuff on it and nobody knows why. Well, I'll tell you why: those are bug fixes. One of them fixes that bug that Nancy had when she tried to install the thing on a computer that didn't have Internet Explorer. Another one fixes that bug that occurs in low memory conditions. Another one fixes th
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform today i had to look into mod security. which somehow didn't run, tho it was included in apache. which needed to be recompiled. which failed. do you happen to have any idea what apache's like incidentally ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: note that typical derprogrammer likes to sit down on a soft cushion of 'it doesn't work because i surely made a small mistake', rather than the hard concrete of 'it is broken because i am illiterate' --- or the sharp pine stake of 'because i am a moron'
mircea_popescu: as if reality were contusive or something. which, i suppose it actually is for their ilk
assbot: Logged on 02-06-2015 23:25:27; danielpbarron: i assumed anything that he might have read that pointed to this channel would have also linked to the real phuctor but yeah ok
assbot: Logged on 02-06-2015 23:21:22; jurov: http://www.eulorum.org/Gameplay << this is literally all I have figured out after hours of gameplay.
decimation: asciilifeform: I would be willing to make the trade to some kind of fascist ada if I could be assured that the tools would detect nearly all detectablle bugs
mircea_popescu: alphonse23_ you read http://trilema.com/2015/on-how-the-factored-4096-rsa-keys-story-was-handled-and-what-it-means-to-you/ an http://trilema.com/2015/more-factored-rsa-keys-and-assorted-other-considerations/ i expect ?
decimation: I thought it was SPARK
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=02-06-2015#1151875 << dawg, did i call it or did i call it lmao ☝︎
decimation: I'm not sure if they also submitted the deps, but bitcoin weighs in at 16 million lines of code
decimation: I think you need to get an account, I will try to see if it is that easy
decimation: I have no doubt it would produce much noise, but it is a possible starting point
decimation: heh I don't think it's that simple
BingoBoingo: Honestly I worry moar for pete and the other Candidians than I do for the USians.
decimation: I would fully expect reams of shit though
mircea_popescu: i had thought they had just given up on their own version of telnet-ssl.

BingoBoingo: Fuck, I really am torn on whether ot not to approve spam comment for "mosin nagant 10 round magazine"
shinohai: I have this crazy idea of getting it to run on those little arch images that work on Android
shinohai: I need to set up an image to test on. I was gonna try an Arch image.
shinohai: Awesum. I hold off because I'm lazy and waiting for the first one to sync
mod6: i wouldn't worry about it. these are experimental as of now. at a later time, they maybe included in a milestone release.
