asciilifeform: where i got 'rotor' to build a bootable linux, with bare bones envir

asciilifeform: might recall asciilifeform's attempt http://btcbase.org/log/2015-07-30#1217516 ☝︎

asciilifeform: the orig 'rotor' thing was prompted by heathen gentoo having random crapolade instead of a sane compiler, libc, etc

asciilifeform: ( would have to make sure that the trb deps are baked into cuntoo , naturally -- the stock bdb oughta be the 1 in trb, etc )

asciilifeform: under cuntoo it oughta (again in theory) suffice to run the makefile

asciilifeform: i dun recall whether trinque specifically tested this, but as i understand it oughta work precisely like-so. ☟︎

asciilifeform: ( cuntoo per se, if you recall, is apprx a generalization of 'rotor' )

asciilifeform: theoretically should produce ~same~ binary as the rotor build. ☟︎

asciilifeform: given as it comes already with sane gcc and musl

asciilifeform: mod6: the 1 obv change with cuntoo is that it dun need 'rotor' build process at all

asciilifeform: i'ma run the diff and errything that lines up with what i signed prev, will sign again

asciilifeform: a la http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2743

asciilifeform: it's a straight regrind, neh ?

asciilifeform: ( esp. given that i orig wrote most of'em )

asciilifeform: absolutely will review, and sign

asciilifeform: what do you have in mind mod6 ?

asciilifeform: depends for what

asciilifeform: ( 16b, currently on asciilifeform's desk, inescapably has some basic number theory, but this is not avoidable, and it is self-contained intro )

asciilifeform: there is deliberately 0 'serious' maffs in the series.

asciilifeform: mod6: you'll defo want a chalkboard or at least a pad of foolscap

asciilifeform: ch10 i expect typical reader will want cup of coffee; 14 - 2 cups.

asciilifeform: imho none of'em oughta take herculean effort to eat

asciilifeform: 6-8 ditto

asciilifeform: 1-4 are imho pretty easy

asciilifeform: neato

asciilifeform: ( with the diff that the train has ~moar~ gurlflesh visible on typical day )

asciilifeform: mod6: that place reminded me moar than anyffin, of a crowded subway train

asciilifeform: those were a snore, had clothes on!

asciilifeform: moar

asciilifeform: mod6: i found it extremely memorable

asciilifeform: for that matter, somebody's still perpetrating (i hesitate to describe as 'maintain') prb

asciilifeform: (possibly the only gavin still going from that period?) ☟︎

asciilifeform: iirc buterin still inbiz

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: recall, we were walking near 'clit bridge' in buenosaires

asciilifeform: ( for folx who didn't go to mircea_popescu's c3 -- he described a sovok-era auto where cleaning the air filter would reliably kill the engine )

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu is a++ 9dan master of 'don't clean the air filter' hypotheses

asciilifeform: !#s answer in the sewers

asciilifeform: what means 'tell story qua story vs qua reality' ? ☟︎

asciilifeform: but helpfully!111 tell you 1st.

asciilifeform: ( if you dun 'pong' < t after 'ping'-ed, they drop )

asciilifeform: the lulzprotocol actually permits this

asciilifeform: i've seen similar lulz, where i actually get a ' asciilifeform has quit (Ping timeout ... ' ~prior~ to actually getting dropped

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: do all pipes drop or just fleanode's ?

asciilifeform: 1 of the 1st things asciilifeform remembers reading as a larva , is a street poster advertising 1 of those underground dojos

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-30#1890969 << was karatism ultra-popular in '80s ro, like in late sovok ? ( there, was ubiquitous, esp. on acct of being Officially verboten ) ☝︎☟︎☟︎

asciilifeform recalls'em at the BingoBoingostan market, right next to the other meat on the hoof

asciilifeform: oh hey BingoBoingo finally dined on ultra-short pig ?

asciilifeform: or 1 of those iguanas, say

asciilifeform pictures it as a 20kg rabbit, and mouth waters

asciilifeform: lol asciilifeform misread, was just about to ask how one prepares a capybara an' how was the meat

asciilifeform brb,tea

asciilifeform: recurrent motif

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: where was the orig hut then ?

asciilifeform: i'm not disputing the wires, only the stickers on the wires.

asciilifeform: koch et al, 'play in carnegie hall', like the infamous florence foster jenkins

asciilifeform: re the trombonists -- if they're playing in designated padded room, who the hell cares .

asciilifeform: lichen + fungus !11

asciilifeform: e you wouldn't come to me with a sick dog because of it, but that's the way many people approach programmers.'

asciilifeform: 'tell you what. I receive some cast-away meat from dissections at my nearby veterinary school, and I have absolutely no problem with filling my fridge with dead animal parts. I enjoy studying the interior design of animals while I feed my cat with the meat. if you wade through my garbage, you'd find whole ribs, an assortment of bones, lots of animal skin, an occasional hoof, and a large number of used scalpel blades. I really hop

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu's 'amateur' sounds moar like sleepwalker than ordinary sleeper tho

asciilifeform: unless i misread thrd, mircea_popescu's implication is that 'amateur' is a type of mental defective

asciilifeform: ars longa & vita brevis, to touch ~errything~. i'm prepared to piss on koch, but i won't piss on gliderist who gets in nobody's way

asciilifeform: is a fella who flies hand-glider on weekends 'trying to re-enact' being bird ?

asciilifeform: imho 'ameteur' vs 'pro' is muchly misleading termnology; 'serious' vs dilettante is as i understand exactly what mircea_popescu was discussing

asciilifeform: where he 'i relax doing this cuz the result dun matter to anyone else'

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dug for, but failed to find in O(1), Framedragger's 'model airplanes' thrd

asciilifeform 9-dan teapot!111

asciilifeform: hm

asciilifeform: eh if unbroken, what's it doing on a surgeon's table

asciilifeform: body is as 'broken' as anyffin gets, yet there is still such a thing as pro surgeon

asciilifeform: ( the 'pro' players are entirely diff social circle, tho, and not merely because they live on winnings. they're more or less grown from age 5 to do the thing )

asciilifeform: in the (possibly surprisingly, to some) not yet dead world of go, there exists such a thing as '9-dan amateur', who can sometimes win against (lower ranked) pro

asciilifeform: it rose to 'meme', tho, i've seen number of ru folx who 'graduated' from having to work for daily bread, refer to it.

asciilifeform: in a certain old sov children's cartoon there was a crocodile character who , when asked what is his profession, would answer 'i work as myself, there in the zoo'

asciilifeform: was about to say!

asciilifeform: ( not that freud was wrong, even, re subj. )

asciilifeform: i'm beginning to suspect that mircea_popescu is the last living troo subscriber of s. freud

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: e. lasker, for instance, was pro chessist, but amateur go

asciilifeform: what means to 'fly looking in' ?

asciilifeform: as i understand, diff enuff activity that it is quite separate from what he does for living; and so amateur, just as he is amateur when plays chess

asciilifeform: at own expense.

asciilifeform: he flies himself, iirc , cuz likes the feel of the wind or etc.

asciilifeform: iirc he flies, but not passengers/for fee

asciilifeform: e.g. trinque ☟︎

asciilifeform vaguely suspects that 'potato jizzus' is moar famous , sadly, than the orig painting nao

asciilifeform: pretty sure koch is 100% aware.

asciilifeform: opensores!111

asciilifeform: that'd be quackery, neh

asciilifeform: dunno, peddling snake oil for money is not what i associate with 'amateur'; it's quackery. amateur typically writes 'into desk' and doesn't pollute environment. tho i suppose 'open sores' is changing this.

asciilifeform: imho 'charlatan' is perfectly adequate description of ~these~

asciilifeform: ( in that respect, koch is arguably 'professional', entirely bought an' paid for by microshit et al )

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i thought 'amateur' is simply what's left when you subtract folx who bake for money.

asciilifeform: meanwhile, http://btcbase.org/patches/ffa_ch16_miller_rabin.kv << ty phf !
