asciilifeform: unless someone notices serious problems, this is what will be built (using deterministic build process) and fielded on the first public node
asciilifeform: ^ precisely what is printed on the box. but all plz read
asciilifeform: '(EXPERIMENTAL) Full IRC Demolition; Manual External IP Setting; Version Bump.'
asciilifeform still in the process of sawing out the irc sync mechanism. after this, will have to see whether the deterministic-build thing actually works (my last attempt using therealbitcoin's 'official' script died in agony on account of gcc strange)
asciilifeform: mod6: not looking for earth-shaking ideas, but release was 0.5.3.1, and the thing about to be fielded is clearly something quite else, imho needs a new name, at least new ver. 2) ~somebody~'s gotta have a seed
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes, mod6, mircea_popescu, et al: 2 items for consideration: 1) what version string is to be used in the first public therealbitcoin nodes? the current one doesn't seem appropriate 2) anyone have existing nodes (of whatever variety) to 'get a light' from? i'd prefer these to 'wild' mysterymeat
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: kids throwing own turds are only 'dangerous' to the orderlies, and this only if the latter forgot their mask
asciilifeform unpacks crate of east german z80 clones, counts, puts on shelf
asciilifeform: 'the chocolate ration has increased from 100 to 50g...'☟︎
asciilifeform: in other news, happy 22nd june, actual-start-of-ww2-day, to all.
asciilifeform: jungle, islands are waiting for thestringpuller.
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: to paraphrase herr trotsky on war, 'you may not be interested in life as a hobo, but life as a hobo is interested in you'
asciilifeform: i can already picture mircea_popescu's 'recipe': 'naggum should've moved to argentina' 'me: with what' 'mircea: with shirt on his back' 'me: doing what' 'mircea: sharpening knives while living in dumpster' 'me: betcha he knew this, and didn't care for it'☟︎
asciilifeform: which in naggum's case was oslo regime
asciilifeform: that pile is not yours by virtue of having your name on it. it belongs to apex predator
asciilifeform: because why should some schmuck get to keep his pile ?☟︎
asciilifeform: mats: he did this. and was dekulakized
asciilifeform: as it was, he was not interested in going to africa to be arseraped. instead, 'drowned like a gentleman'
asciilifeform: if someone would like to take a break from voodoo and put on engineer hat, i'd like to hear concrete notion of what naggum 'should have' done
asciilifeform: yes, it was necessary. to buy time for the conveyors to start up.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-06-2015#1171972 << i find it smashingly hilarious that everyone today seems to still be buying that particular bit of wartime engineered psychosis. the 'fighting without pants, one rifle for three men' thing 100% lines up with the '41-'42 period when su was having the shit kicked out of it.☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: fill up ~our~ (not yet built) box, not random schmuck's
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: it appears to be (now) empty.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: only approximately, by claimed version
asciilifeform: and that we need 1) own seeds 2) optionally, irc box 3) organized hunt for ungavinized seeds from planet as a whole, to seed (1) nodes with
asciilifeform: it does appear to follow from this discovery that: the other side is paying attention...
asciilifeform: anyone notice if gavingang sent out 'alerts' recently ?☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i blew it away just this minute specifically to test.
asciilifeform: funkenstein_: a usenet post (or, for that matter, me speaking here) is more like a fart
asciilifeform: there are other 'costs' that aren't precisely monetary, like the fact that you can't do the 20 years where you became a serious specialist in something - over again
asciilifeform: this is even aside from the expensive things folks sometimes ~choose~ to do when they grow older, like producing children, etc
asciilifeform: that is, having four walls to sit in without strangers sharing the space, to eat real food, to sometimes visit doctors, etc☟︎
