davout: but from my understanding a stock pogo won't let you simply boot from an arbitrary usb stick
danielpbarron: pre-configured to look for a sata drive to format and mount as the datadir for bitcoind
danielpbarron: i would guess something like flashing the memory with a ramdisk image that has all the kernel userland and bitcoind already in there
davout: and since you mention the final product, what would the target procedure look like to configure a new pogo?
danielpbarron: but that was a some time ago
danielpbarron: i was able to compile bitcoind for a pogo from my gentoo laptop using crossdev
davout: telnet without a username got me in as root
danielpbarron: he decided that since the thing has no RNG, ssh is a waste
davout: the pogo seems to have a half green half red light
danielpbarron: i have a more condensed guide on the b-a wiki
scoopbot_revived: News! A not-so-new era begins in Alberta politics. URL: http://www.contravex.com/2015/05/06/a-not-so-new-era-begins-in-alberta-politics/ ☟︎
davout: danielpbarron: but i'm slightly confused at this whole thing, say i manage to flash the new uboot on the pogo, and set the correct variables with the new fw_printenv command that comes with the improved u-boot, and that with the correct settings the pogo will look for a kernel on the network at boot time, what's netcat for?
mod6: (and yeah, that's on a deb6 - x86_64 env)
mod6: I can't really check from here, but later tonight will give some updates as to how my v0.5.3.1+OrphanageBurner build is running. last I saw, it was using quite a bit of available ram. was >200`000 blocks, and still running, but that was lastnight. ☟︎
danielpbarron: it comes with its own uBoot, which can be configured to load a kernel over the network
lobbes: 'Parks Department officials were unable to remove the bust initially, but arrived at noon to cover it with a tarpaulin'
assbot: A renegade sculptor has mounted a bust of Edward Snowden in a Brooklyn park | The Verge ... ( http://bit.ly/1QmDniB )
davout: (it doesn't reverse-sync in the sense that it doesn't keep a partial tree it tries to reconnect to the currency known best tree)
asciilifeform: davout: when gets a bastard block, it 1) drops 2) requests, from current sync node, blocks prior to it
asciilifeform: 'and the reason i believe they fought me so hard, and is a detail thats kind of hard to get through to reporters, is that the cylinders used an OTP memory, the issues cannot be fixed without a somewhat expensive exchange' -- from the locks article
mircea_popescu: Finally, if the event is held between the 1st [SSI distribution] and the 16th [last EBT distribution] the ghetto will be flush with government money. Any event held after the 20th will be likely to draw criminal predators, mostly teens ranging away from the nest to fill their mother’s requests, such as, “Baby, get me a new purse—a nice leather one like those white ladies carry.”
mircea_popescu: there was no longer an ability to marshal large ghetto forces, absent their high school breeding grounds. The media coverage was a complete lie and a hoax, the rioters have been excused, and the race-purging strike teams in outlying areas ignored or covered up. During the school year attend such events in Baltimore only on the weekend. If they have a Friday night event, do not go. As this event is in August, I predict
mircea_popescu: Monday. The first riots on the Saturday following the death of Freddie Gray were not a fraction of what came on Monday after his funeral. Recall that all parties predicted that the funeral would calm tensions, not considering that Freddie Gray’s death was just an excuse to vent long standing hatreds, and that proper mass riots could not be organized until high school was in session. When another weekend rolled around
mircea_popescu: "The Baltimore riots were fueled by cohesive large scale mobs exiting their criminal training ground, where they are prepared for a lifetime of illiteracy and incarceration: Baltimore City Schools. These riots only reached virulent levels during the week. The media claims that the riots calmed down after Friday because of the police indictments, but this was not so. Friday was as hot as any day of the riots other than
mircea_popescu: he even has a testable hypothesis! exciting.
btcdrak: I would be super surprised if gavin's proposal gets through. seems like there is a lot of opposition from coredevs thankfully.
mircea_popescu: the man got a purple belt in prose.
mircea_popescu: When I was the same age as the MMA athletes you are training all we had was silk-lined fantasy. Now there is a real sweaty reality in a cage near you, and you just might be able to help some hard working young wrestler who actually knows how to make weight, box, if only in spots. Even so, it’s still boxing, and it’s a fact, that most of the hands being taped today are being taped cage-side. You might-as-well wield
mircea_popescu: MMA is the place where all of those bodies are landing. It might not be boxing, but boxing is there. And the grappling and kicking coaches want your help. Believe me, comparing notes with a ground fighter in 2013 is far better than arguing with the wannabe martial arts movie stars of the 1970s about their bizarre array of secret animal punches and their ability to levitate out of your way as they stole your life force
cazalla: reminds me of another article i read yesterday.. some chick will graduate fireman school despite failing because that's who you want to turn up in case of a fire.. someone unable to put it out
mircea_popescu: "Hire diverse Googlers: In the past, our university-focused hiring programs have relied heavily on a relatively small number of schools. But, we know those schools aren't always the most diverse. For example, while 14% of Hispanic college enrollment is at 4-year schools, Hispanics make up just 7% at the 200 most selective schools. In the past two years, we've doubled the number of schools where we recruit, to promote s

BingoBoingo: <decimation> if you are wondering the southwest and find a gigantic blue wasp dragging around a freshly-paralyzed tarantula, leave it alone << Fuck. No tarantulas here, but that coloration is new this year among some of the assorted wasps I've ignored as variations on the paper wasps. Will have nore concern for
decimation: if you are wondering the southwest and find a gigantic blue wasp dragging around a freshly-paralyzed tarantula, leave it alone

mircea_popescu: well he's a mfa/boxer coach, whadda ya want.
mircea_popescu: lls flat beneath the reality of naked force. The hooting black heathens that have hunted me in the streets of Baltimore for over 30 years might be my enemies, but they at least acknowledge my manhood as they probe for my every weakness, and have struck a resounding blow against the slave mistress society that seeks with its every apparatus to render me weak to the point of meek.
mircea_popescu: I now observe, through what of my primal man’s eye I have been able to salvage from this systematic assault on my humanity, that all it takes is a few urban savages to rip the mask away from the slave mistress that owns us to expose her for the impotent squabbling bitch that she is, and open the door for men to be men once again, as the lie that encases our souls crumbles to dust with every fumbling falsehood that fa

mircea_popescu: this gonna be a warm summer.
mircea_popescu: "10. All whites I have spoken to have noted that blacks they normally come into contact with have been behaving with increased—or not before present—hostility. This has been noted by the author as well, with hard eye-contact and aggressive posturing evidenced by most black males I now encounter, where before that was a minority expression of about a third of such men."
mircea_popescu: this guy has a pretty decent understanding of how this shit works.
decimation: how many beggars in the us couldn't have a warm bed and meals - if willin to submit to charity
mircea_popescu: "7. Over 200 businesses, including at least 13 pharmacies, and up to a third of liquor stores, have been wiped from the face of the earth, many of them minority businesses which are uninsured and will not recover. This places the drug gangs in a position to expand the illegal economy in areas where businesses will not return—as they did not return after the 1968 riots—which offsets losses of territory recently suff

asciilifeform: 'President Hoover signed a permit to lay cable in the territorial waters of the United States on June 17, 1930. The Cuban-American Telephone and Telegraph Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bell Telephone Company, accepted responsibility for the work under this permit and filed it with the State Department in Washington D.C.
