ascii_field: davout: yes, and i proposed this
mats: i can already imagine the advertisements --
mircea_popescu: i don't think they stand a chance in europe, for teh record.
mats: i'm still strapped in, gonna reevaluate my position when they finally produce an electric utility truck
jurov: price seems fair, i'd like to see how quickly will they able to produce
davout: ascii_field: should i start straight with your v2 patches ?
davout: meh, nvm, i'll do the full version first, and dumb it down afterwards
davout: ascii_field: ok, i should be able to get it from your binaries amirite
davout: so i'm currently connected to the Pogo through SSH, pretty easy so far
danielpbarron: yeah that's what i'm ircing from
trinque: I stuck a debian install on one of the attached drives as a workspace
assbot: Logged on 29-03-2015 18:21:35; asciilifeform: ^ so in principle these can be reimplemented with the nand tools i have included.
Luke-Jr: yeah, I'm kinda surprised he didn't take williamdunne's offer
Luke-Jr: I just wanted to LOL at the convo with RockHoster earlier. I was going to say "the maintainer doesn't *need* to be unbiased", but then I saw https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/User_talk:RockHoster
ascii_field: (most common variant where i live)
mircea_popescu: and what else is life all about i ask ye!
ascii_field: this is how 'fuck you i'm a dragon' probably began.
mircea_popescu: because i got cold fusion going!
mircea_popescu: but you know... it kinda didn't sit well... so i let out this huge burp... and i think it all went into my cavity or something
mircea_popescu: so listen alf, i had an exceptional plate of deviled eggs last night... ate 18^H^H 19^H^H 27 of the suckers
ascii_field: as a very small boy, i listened to a 'radio' consisted of a handset speaker from a busted telephone (circa 1940s?) and a diode (pulled out of ancient bobbin deck, also thrown out window by someone)
trinque: and I don't mean this play-ball tea party thing
ascii_field: i do not know if they grow naturally or have to be cultivated - but they serve this purpose.
trinque: I consider TX a highly redeemable part of the US
mircea_popescu: i can see it.
mircea_popescu: by the way, am i the only foreigner that thinks southern dialects a lot more expressive, interesting and developed than yankee english ?
mircea_popescu: i guess you're right
ascii_field: how can i know, is it one tree, six, or forty-six
trinque: mircea_popescu | and for the record, i hope the us feminazis win the war and castrate each and every us white male with a college degree. << heh, my balls are safe then
pete_dushenski: i'll definitely be documenting my edgerouter rampage.
mircea_popescu: and for the record, i hope the us feminazis win the war and castrate each and every us white male with a college degree.
mircea_popescu: especially the "document everything i do" part.
davout: i think both are required, one for the folks who want to inspect, audit or otherwise fuck with the device, and one to turn a crate of stock pogos into node as fast as possible
davout: but i guess it can also be fun to do the whole thing, maybe i'll end-up with two sets of docs the "advanced" version and the "i just want this goddamn thing running" version
ascii_field: i certainly have no intention of distributing bins every time we path
davout: danielpbarron ascii_field ah i see, i wasn't aware that alf had a pre-built kernel that's to be used, i'll work from there, also i'll document everything I do, so maybe you won't need to spend time updating your docs
danielpbarron: davout, i'm not aware of how to do that; i've only ever used ascii's pre-built kernels i think
davout: danielpbarron: which i'm not (doing the serial thing), so it's not very clear to me how to build the kernel and software that'll actually run on the pogo once it's ready
danielpbarron: davout, yeah that's why i'm rewriting; it's about the workstation connecting to pogo
davout: danielpbarron: in your docs, 2.2.2 refer to building a kernel for the workstation talking to the pogo, not building a kernel for the pogo itself, or am i heavily confused?
danielpbarron: pete_dushenski, my SSD one is still going and I have no reason to suspect it won't eventually sync
danielpbarron: comes as no surprise to me; that's exactly the bottle neck i ran into when first getting into running a node
ascii_field: <danielpbarron> on a related note, my 5400 rpm pogo cannot sync << i spoke of this briefly at c3. the almost deadly-certain explanation is that there is no ram to spare for the customary disk cache
danielpbarron: i'm rewriting some stuff now, adding to wiki
davout: ascii_field: i have the physical pogos you gave me, an ethernet cable, a power adapter, an internet connection, a few usb sticks, a working debian, and a 120gb sata disk that fits in the pogo. what's the easiest way to set it up as a bitcoin node
assbot: Logged on 01-05-2015 16:14:34; davout: hrm.. i was under the impression it was possible to somehow re-flash the pogo from a simple USB stick without soldering anything
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-05-2015#1117786 << i did ☝︎
davout: yeah, the curl bit if i understand correctly
davout: so the first thing i should do is try to access it through SSH, and work from there, right?
davout: haha, ok nice, guess i'm going to put the pogo back together then :-)
davout: maybe i misunderstood something
davout: hrm.. i was under the impression it was possible to somehow re-flash the pogo from a simple USB stick without soldering anything ☟︎
pete_dushenski: now to see if i can re-install edgeos and start over :)
pete_dushenski: instead of establishing a serial connection with 'edgeos' first, i installed freebsd on the usb drive first
pete_dushenski: i'm as confused as anyone !
danielpbarron: i'm surprised it says the file doesn't exist when you say you saw it in /dev/
danielpbarron: and that thing i just quoted makes it sound like screen is already on OS X; try typing screen --version in your terminal
danielpbarron: for me, serial adapter is only accessible as root, although i think i read somewhere there are things you can do to make it work for other users
pete_dushenski: but i shan't give in just yet.
danielpbarron: i'm reading the thing you pasted, and the instructions are very similar to adulterating a pogo
mats: i like the idea of wireless headphones but the bluetooth stack is horribly damaged
pete_dushenski: danielpbarron: that's where i'm at, yes. serial comm software 'minicom' doesn't want to work.
pete_dushenski: danielpbarron: i figure it's worth a shot seeing as how i'm at a bit of a dead end with osx
danielpbarron: not so bad; i used ubuntu to do that with pogo for my first attempted after soldering the serial thing onto it
pete_dushenski: mats: i don't see the appeal of wireless headphones, mostly because they're another thing to charge with another cable
mats: i never figured out why, but the kernel seemed convinced there was a hardware switch thrown someplace
mats: i spend a non trivial amount of time debugging ubuntu desktops whenever people break it
pete_dushenski: i'm just trying to set up this edgerouter with freebsd. nothing else.
mats: i've rarely had a good experience with ubuntu
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-05-2015#1117664 << i'd love nothing more than to disrupt their economy to the point they're left begging on street corners. ☝︎
williamdunne: Before I think it was data allowance, price, location and if they allow tor or not
mircea_popescu: i was under the impression "vps hosting" is the new "unlimited shared hosting" thing of the 2000s.
williamdunne: RockHoster_: You'll be on the list, you get no "special" benefit. I can't be biased towards you I will be neutral
RockHoster_: If I pay you 1 BTC ??
RockHoster_: I shhould say
RockHoster_: What benefit will I get ??
RockHoster_: How can I trust you ?
williamdunne: Well then don't, I offered my personal price. Take it or leave it
RockHoster_: Seriously I don't have 1 BTC to pay somebody
RockHoster_: What can I do if I want to be moderator of that page ?
RockHoster_: So I can't moderate page
RockHoster_: I stay online for more than 8 hours daily
RockHoster_: I can keep it up to date
mats: i loled
RockHoster_: I also have a account with editing rights
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I have an account already
williamdunne: I'll do it for you if you'd like for a price
mircea_popescu: if i recall, Luke-Jr was admining that thing
RockHoster_: I want to discuss about this page.
davout: asciilifeform: so i have finally acquired a dedicated SSD and a euro-plug adapter for the pogo, where do i start?
jurov: (i know miner and node is not the same thing but could not resist)
assbot: Logged on 01-05-2015 03:43:02; decimation: http://www.isegoria.net/2015/04/baltimore-cop-in-the-hood/ < "Of course, another thing is that most people who can leave have left. And so, in these pockets, how can you have good community relations when a substantial number of people are actively or passively involved in crime? I think there are a lot of cops that just say, “Fuck ‘em, they want burn their neighborhood, let ‘em.” But on the othe
mircea_popescu: that's perhaps the true subtext there. "they told me not to grab womyn butt. okay, i don't. they told me not to hunt deer off the highway. ok, i don't. they told me not to make fire indoors. alright. and i don't smoke either, and apparently coke is bad. i liked coke but whatever.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-05-2015#1117574 << shit, i've seen .jar based raid controllers. HARDWARE raid controllers. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "On the optimism bias, while I’ve known that these numbers have been consistently too optimistic, I always assumed that the senior leadership of the fed had access to the real data, and the numbers put out for the public were heavily, well, decorated."

BingoBoingo: If I recall Clitler in the 1990's promised to press her husband to do similar
asciilifeform: but i think this is, at this point, known to virtually everyone.
decimation: yeah I've never hear of it either
decimation: I took a cpr class today, relatively simple AED electronics cost > $1k
