asciilifeform: mod6: the open-specced intel gpu -- evaporated
mod6: asciilifeform: yeah, i agree though. having all kinds of background things running and the kernel off doing who knows what is unwanted.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: betcha you can't build an x that will draw on any card you can buy in a store nao, without 5+ << yeah, any proper graphics card. std intel card tho.
mircea_popescu: then "masking" and then of course "non maskable" and etc. when that happens you know you fucked up the design
mircea_popescu: interrupts were a bad idea from the get-go.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> ( moar-threads-than-cpus is fundamentally a lie to the operator ) << 'i can't believe it's not cpu' aha.
asciilifeform: or at least confine'em to 1 core.
asciilifeform: i can't think of any reason to EVEN ENABLE INTERRUPTS on such a box
asciilifeform: it'll be great to be able to deterministically measure execution times again, for instance.
asciilifeform: ( moar-threads-than-cpus is fundamentally a lie to the operator )
asciilifeform: mod6: further re '64-bit dos' : i increasingly also like the idea of os that has 0 kernel activity other than when invoked. and in general, 0 background activity other than user-specified; and no more threads than cpus.
asciilifeform: http://www.2f-spiele.de/spiele/spiele_akt_deut.htm << anybody ever heard of these..?
mircea_popescu: wtf is the point even sticking it into her if she can't show 2-3lbs of tit upfront.

asciilifeform: afaik they dun make those east of urals
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> so i take it 0 fat folx. << 0 tall chicks with nice udders, either.
mircea_popescu: you know, like fat girl everyone calls piggy trying to use "piggy" in conversation.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i lolled at the pantsuits using the fucking word, all casual like.
asciilifeform: fwiw SANELY written algos translate quite well between algols.
asciilifeform: we may well eventually end up with fortran ( it is by far easier to write a fortran compiler from 0 than an adatron )
asciilifeform: ( incidentally i considered fortran for tmsr crypto )
asciilifeform: ( ada does not suffer from the c/cpp idiots' '95% of everything we do is not nailed down in the standard' horror )
asciilifeform: but i cannot guarantee this.
asciilifeform: incidentally for all i know gcc5ism has not even touched gnat/ada
trinque: I'll try that one instead
asciilifeform: 4.9.4 iirc is still on their www
trinque: dev-lang/gnat-gpl-2017 << this demanded gcc6
asciilifeform: on the box i'm sitting at nao, i have adacore's 4.9.4
trinque: was actually going to ask if you had a vintage
trinque: the latest and therefore best!!11!!!11
asciilifeform: mod6: betcha you can't build an x that will draw on any card you can buy in a store nao, without 5+
mod6: hmm, i dunno about that, following danielpbarron's instructions i was able to get X built with gcc4. but yah, it's all shit.
asciilifeform: mod6: because the unix situation ain't getting any better.
a111: Logged on 2017-06-13 22:37 asciilifeform: end result is to be a vaguely msdos-like thing that understands how to configure x64 page table, put/get blocks of disk, and speak over rs232 port. and on top of this, a self-building gnat.
mod6: <+shinohai> Ah there is my issue apparently ... I needed to prefix USE=bootstrap << thanks for reporting and working through your probs on this in here -- this will probably help someone in the future.
asciilifeform: so i take it 0 fat folx.
asciilifeform: thailand is the land of the 200% car tax iirc.
ag3nt_zer0: dropped my little aged porn star potbelly and all fat over there though with no bread and cheese

asciilifeform: ag3nt_zer0: is that rice or roquefort ?

ag3nt_zer0: what i mean is that people are on drugs and feminism
trinque: ag3nt_zer0: what'd a month cost you there?
ag3nt_zer0: Chiang Rai is very nice superior to Chiang Mai imo, smaller, cleaner, up in the hills a bit more
ag3nt_zer0: I really enjoyed the temples everywhere
ag3nt_zer0: i should say it was my first "world trip" so I dont have much to compare it to and was really just enjoying the otherness of it all... the food was fucking incredible and the people were mostly very nice... said hi to me as I walked past them on the street which I guess qualifies as "very nice" in pharmaceutically feminist america
trinque: the place has been on my radar for a while; I've got a meatwot guy there
ag3nt_zer0: trinque I loved thailand
ag3nt_zer0: just got back a while ago and working my ass off to buy btc before it fulfills what appears to be its destiny of 1 trillion dollars/coin
trinque: how do you find Thailand?
ag3nt_zer0: I went on an pretty long trip - 8 mos mexico, colombia, peru, thailand
ag3nt_zer0: haha well alot moved around since last I was here... we had that whole brexit trump pepe chaos magik thing
ben_vulpes: what are the lolz of the day ag3nt_zer0
trinque: I resisted the urge to troll him that hard
ben_vulpes: allow me to reassure you, ag3nt_zer0, you *can* still curl2sudo!
ag3nt_zer0: I am always peeking from time to time for reassurance hehe
trinque: this guy right here, shit you not, tells deedbot:
ag3nt_zer0: hey there!
ben_vulpes: long time no see, ag3nt_zer0
asciilifeform: ftr 'p' stands at ~2500 ln. (incl. comments) presently. will need to lose some weight...
shinohai: Ah there is my issue apparently ... I needed to prefix USE=bootstrap
asciilifeform: alternatively install adacore's thing
shinohai: First of all, is this what I should be following? https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Ada
shinohai: btw mod6 .... I failed with the Ada/Gentoo thing the other night. Back to reading I suppose.
asciilifeform: ( homework to reader: prove that this works.. )
asciilifeform: pretty 'martian' algo for the usual O(N^2) mults, but notably it doesn't need a full Z's worth of temporary row space, but only 3 words' , ~regardless of Z width~ !
a111: Logged on 2017-05-21 00:47 asciilifeform: in other sads, it turns out that paul g. comba ( of comba's multiplication algo ) died in april.
asciilifeform: meanwhile, for the intrepid: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/mIuk9/?raw=true << combatron!
mircea_popescu: "if enough black chicks coded we wouldn't have to think about when was the last time anyone wrote any usefu lcode"
mircea_popescu: shoulda spanked the bitchezs when they were 16, not wait for the fucking "criminology" degree.
mircea_popescu: and, ironically, they're registered by the very shit black chix coded.
mircea_popescu: let's worry if enough black chicks code. that's the issue.
asciilifeform: and has to ponder, 'who should it be'
asciilifeform: brings to mind this old '40s sf tale, where 2 d00dz are exonerated of murder after doing 20y on the toughest prison planets, with giant wasps & similar joys, and so each gets a 'murder pass' to actually do the thing he already sat for
asciilifeform: '...the public defender’s office has filed approximately 2,000 motions informing the court that, due to its reportedly imperfect software, many of its clients have been forced to serve unnecessary jail time, be improperly arrested, or even wrongly registered as sex offenders.' << lol!!
ben_vulpes: on the topic of "us courts are a thin veil over the criminal enterprise": https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/06/appeals-court-public-defender-lacks-standing-in-dispute-over-court-software/
trinque: pay the fucking feds with the card; buy bitcoin with the cash

mircea_popescu: it got all the electronics of old motorola phone.
asciilifeform: trinque: quite a stuggle to buy one ~without~ the crud , lately
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i thought buying new is a scam anyway. why would it be obvious you meant that ?
trinque: thing didn't have the idiot iPads in the dash so no one wanted it.
asciilifeform: in usa that is
asciilifeform: i dun think i've ever sat in a car with <100k
trinque: fucking yawn; the things run til 300k miles
asciilifeform: so i thought it was quite obvious that meant 'new'.

mircea_popescu: trinque we're in the other side of the life sucks/doesn't continuum atm.
