mats: i'm cheering for tesla to somehow succeed, if musk improves batt tech thats a net win for mankind ☟︎
mats: which is almost half what a hybrid does.
asciilifeform: and that it behaved somewhat like a proper car
decimation: Details for how Tesla can offer this quicker option can be found in CEO Elon Musk's blog post (available below), but the gist is that a new advanced smart fuse for the battery allows an increase in the maximum amp throughout from 1,300 to 1,500 amps. This will cost new buyers $10,000, but current P85D owners can get the upgrade pack electronics for $5,000 plus installation labor, for the next six months."
mod6: i'll give one a try as soon as it's built and ready to test.
mod6: how hard is gonna be to do a new buildroot for this one?
asciilifeform: mod6: same cost as pogo - the castrato sata-less one - yes. but recall that pogo is a dwindling non-renewable resource
asciilifeform: but it's a linux box, slightly faster than 'pogo'
asciilifeform: no one thinks 'it is a computer'
asciilifeform: certain pnohes/tardablets are, i'm told, able to throw a picture to these things
asciilifeform: decimation: the included fw doesn't display anything useful. just a menu where you can connect to local wifi
asciilifeform: and also jurov pointed to a possible boojum (though i have seen account of others who did use usb storage with these)
asciilifeform: mod6: still need to do a buildroot for this bugger
mod6: (is this like a google tv-like thing?)
mod6: ok so you use this miracast thing and you link up a 500gb usb drive, good to go?
mod6: when we were at the bazzar there was a bunch of neat trinkets
mod6: he has a eye for antique stuff.
ben_vulpes: end game here is a share in a robo fleet.
asciilifeform: this one is for item mentioned earlier, 'what is the barfiest hardware that might host a node' inquiry.
asciilifeform: <mod6> It drives me nuts, because I can't find a regular old-school (even a plastic one with a normal pour spout) to save my life. Might have to check at garage sales or something. All major stores only carry Soviet Gas can. << this is mega-lulzy because ~actual~ soviet gas cans were 100% metal, on the german pattern
trinque: how bout that, something that looks like a fucking tool
mod6: so now i have to fill up a plastic/glass cup and then throw it in there from a distance.
mod6: i've got a wide mouth USG pos that would light my damn balls on fire in the process.
mod6: what's also obnoxious about it, is now i cant easily pour gas on my fire like a normal person.
trinque: yeah, mine had tiny pinhole vents with a plastic cover
trinque: though I never recall having one without a vent at all
trinque: mod6: yeah, lived in tx for a long time, had these
mod6: and it is true, i spill much more gas pouring it out of the open mouth without shitsucker nozzle into a funnel with no goddamn breather hole.
mod6: bah, i've lived in one of the hottest places in the world. sure, the cans get bloated a bit. just don't stick your face 1" from the thing when opening the lid. simple.
decimation: "There’s also the problem of the exploding can. On hot days, the plastic models to which this regulation applies can blow up like balloons. When you release the top, gas flies everywhere, including possibly on a hot engine. "
decimation: they didn't pass a law, they just made it known that making gas cans that vent to the atmosphere wouldn't make them very happy
assbot: Spy stuff on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1Mzckhw )
trinque: I just got a 500gb SSD in the mail supposedly for amazon
cazalla: nah mate, it's a whipper snipper
cazalla: a funnel i mean.. spout lol
cazalla: never used an eco can so i can't say, i just use one of these http://i.imgur.com/hcbpjLY.jpg with a spout but when i was doing some chainsaw work, they had these newfangled combi cans and those things are awesome
cazalla: google search shows it to be an eco but quite similar to a combi can.. seems to be user error imo :P
mod6: ah, you know, just searching for it... looks like i can by a non-retarded gascan online easy enough.
cazalla: mod6, that looks like a combi can, not sure
mod6: It drives me nuts, because I can't find a regular old-school (even a plastic one with a normal pour spout) to save my life. Might have to check at garage sales or something. All major stores only carry Soviet Gas can.
mod6: <+ascii_field> in usa everyone uses either the red plastic bottles, or goes to antique shop and buys nazi 'jerry can' << at some point in the last 6+ years, the USSA standardized the can. Now it seems you can only by 1 standard type of red-plastic gas can. And the f'ing pour spout does not work. It is a worthless pile of shit. It makes you twist and unlock it or some crazy shit. Now, I just throw the spout away, and pour through a funnel fro
mircea_popescu: "Roy Hollister Williams is a best selling author and marketing consultant best known for his Wizard of Ads trilogy. He is founder of the Wizard Academy institute and currently lives in Austin, Texas with his wife Pennie."

mircea_popescu: http://www.chapeldulcinea.org/are-you-guys-a-cult-or-what/
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: he was describing, i think, a fantasy
mircea_popescu: i guess im a later adopter than even yegge.
mircea_popescu: "Some people have been mailing me lately, random people asking me if their kids should go. It's expensive. Way expensive. Tough choice to make, even now, with Wizard Academy grads making anywhere from a quarter million to a million a year, while the rest of us plod away in 5-figure territory."
mircea_popescu: anyone can be a terrorist for the price of a quarter dollar cigar.
ascii_field: if you have a peculiar drive that won't sit down in the cradle - post photo ?
ascii_field: jurov: found a supplier for these ?

williamdunne: 00:06:08 - gabriel_laddel: ascii_field: reference material for ben+pete's school for kids who might maybe not suck one day <<< isn't that what #b-a is anyway? At least that's how I'm trying to use it. ☟︎
ascii_field: can buy a fucking computer for that.
ascii_field: new+multivendor is a major plus imho
ascii_field: jurov: not so much desperate as the fact that i found a device available for $10-15 ~NEW~ from cn, with 256 (or even 512) MB of ram
ascii_field: i ordered a 'miracast' last week, would have tested this already, but it was delayed in the post
ascii_field: gabriel_laddel: it's a lul by the fella who wrote 'lisp is not an acceptable lisp'
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: For example this can be used to simultaneously charge a phone and give it access to a USB port of its own; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Micro-USB-Host-Cable-Male-to-USB-Female-OTG-Cable-USB-Male-Y-Cable-For-Note-4-/291373357246?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item43d73498be

ag3nt_zer0: well sent a pm to phf hopefully he can help...
ascii_field: (often needs a cheap mechanical adapter from 'micro' to female 'a')
trinque: pretty sure all tablet makers still charge out the ass for more than a pittance of storage
ascii_field: speaking of all of this, i realized not long ago that one could easily do a 'pogo' for some shitablet or other
trinque: ag3nt_zer0: try doing a sudo port selfupdate first?
mircea_popescu: i personally never got a mac. best everyone knows is in the wiki, you reading that ?
ben_vulpes: but uh a pile of money probably
ben_vulpes: first thing to be aware of is that if it has anything to do with bitcoin and transacting stuff it's going to be a bitch to get past the 'reviewers'
mircea_popescu: ag3nt_zer0 yes you do, but that doesn't sound like a wrong directory problem
ben_vulpes: if someone were so foolish as to want to pay us to build a game we could
ben_vulpes: ios and android and webturd "engineering" horsepower as a service
ascii_field: 'In addition to the ACPI feature, remote wake-up (including AMD Magic Packet and Microsoft Wake-up frame) is supported in both ACPI and APM (Advanced Power Management) environments. To support WOL from a deep power down state (e.g., D3cold, i.e., main power is off and only auxiliary exists), the auxiliary power source must be able to provide the needed power... ...The RTL8111E supports Protocol offload. It offloads some
assbot: Logged on 16-07-2015 21:07:59; mats: if you hate something, thats fine, but i expect specific and reasoned judgment; its well and good to despise node.js, or javascript, or c++, but i catch a funny smell in here when folks more or less coopt the opinions of their perceived betters
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-07-2015#1203701 << all i know is that programming sucks and some ways of doing it suck a little less than others. ☝︎
ascii_field: (i forget precisely where. oughta be a patch!)
ben_vulpes: ascii_field: the only way to re-verify a chain-on-disk right now is to dump and re-eat all blocks, correct?
ben_vulpes: just reading your patches and thinking about how to exercise them is a quarter-time job
trinque: man I would've bought the scam wifi for a flight that long
ascii_field: ben_vulpes: once you have a known-good blockchain, just copy it
trinque: if I someday neither hear, smell, nor see neighbors, that'll be a good close to chapter one
trinque: wonder if there's a market for that
trinque: it'd be a neat company to have, something which built heavily fortified homes
trinque: so I go over there with a flamethrower and a bandana on my face, then fuck the ashes?
trinque: either I have a good nose or the neighbors are *really* drinking this afternoon
mircea_popescu: but damned, half a yottabyte. i feel like google.
mircea_popescu: on the plus side there's well over 1k complete versions of the thing i nthe wild now, so it's not a total loss.
trinque: bios didn't seem to have a virtualization setting
mircea_popescu: it has a web server ?!

ascii_field: ^ above is the notion. all i have presently is a 10m iso that boots to shell
shinohai: i havent built a staic stator on pogo yet
ascii_field: point is not only to test pogo build and get musl in, but also it is useful to have a rom-able pc realbitcoinotron
mircea_popescu: a right
mircea_popescu: so in principle, we're this close to a pogo binary ?
ascii_field: mod6, ben_vulpes, mircea_popescu, et al: sooo in other nyooz, last night i got a x86_64 buildroot on musl going. shits out a bootable iso
mircea_popescu: recursive archival is a very much open question.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-07-2015#1204624 << there's that archive.today thing which seems to work ok. if anyone actually cares enough about a website (which seems a stretch in my mind, but w/e) they can still do what i did to the usms scammer bunch, curl, base64 and sign. ☝︎
trinque: this "surgical" death from the sky thing strikes me as a bit like playing with one's food
