asciilifeform: dsa

asciilifeform: not even about these in particular.

asciilifeform: there is no such thing, approximately, as a kitchen with precisely one cockroach.

asciilifeform: at least, was, a year or so ago.

asciilifeform: there is at least one exploitable overflow in 'wireshark'.

asciilifeform: phun phact:

asciilifeform: maslow's thing had 'cooperation'? wat?

asciilifeform: ^ illustrated

asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: http://people.ucalgary.ca/~elsegal/TalmudPage.html

asciilifeform: 'prove you're not a bot or a c-student'

asciilifeform: jurov: i like the ru 'integrals' captchae more.

asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: iirc a standard talmud is arranged this way ?

asciilifeform: would need a chassis and power brick?

asciilifeform: jurov: looks like even has sata.

asciilifeform: jurov: not bad. about 1.5 pogos.

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/02/mips-creator-ci20-released-interesting-though-not-very-useful << for your collection. i own the pre-release version of this thing. it works. but full of oddities. there is a (supposedly) complete data sheet for the chip.

asciilifeform: ^ from the run-moar-winblows department

asciilifeform: unrelated mega-lol: http://arstechnica.com/security/2015/02/psa-your-crypto-apps-are-useless-unless-you-check-them-for-backdoors

asciilifeform: unfortunately nothing in the price ballpark of 'pogo'

asciilifeform: https://www.newit.co.uk/shop << 'arm' system vendor in eu

asciilifeform is not especially fond of wireless net for this application

asciilifeform: there also appear to be at least half a dozen compatible products, of similar cost.

asciilifeform: 512mb.

asciilifeform: ^ wireless, usb only for storage

asciilifeform: http://www.dealsmachine.com/best_164529.html?currency=USD&gclid=CjwKEAiAo8emBRCX_OqU4qek6y8SJACzgf8fItxlMkPEh8mQ51Onl4aKr3o31T6wsIcm8FwdwzKuDxoCR2bw_wcB

asciilifeform: by the pound?

asciilifeform: wai wat

asciilifeform: nubbins`: video thing?

asciilifeform: nubbins`: i'm speaking through a mips/bsd box right now

asciilifeform: can't determine if still made

asciilifeform: circa '09, however

asciilifeform: that was it

asciilifeform: aha

asciilifeform: nubbins`: i found the box in question. seagate's 'freeagent dockstar'

asciilifeform: embrace/extend/extinguish, mega-snore.

asciilifeform: the systemd folks are emulating apple, not (intentionally) microshit

asciilifeform: kill etc << apple killed it long ago

asciilifeform: pick'em clean

asciilifeform: leaves

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they're in the whole east usa

asciilifeform: when it finally pops, all of those folks will come screaming into what's left of 'entry linux'

asciilifeform: this, in effect, is what i'm seeing in apple

asciilifeform: the part of the world where i live is plagued with, among other insects, a type of caterpillar that devours trees wholesale. every spring, gigantic hives (?) - nests with webbing - appear, and when they're full, you can almost see them pulsate, pulsate

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: now try expanded mindfuck. think of what this picture will look like once apple implodes.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: like winblows phirewall

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lemme guess, string/path matching

asciilifeform: incidentally, above link has jtag mapping that ought to work for all the marvell boards

asciilifeform: ^ that one

asciilifeform: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/seagate/goflexnet

asciilifeform: hm

asciilifeform: it was, iirc, the 'goflex'

asciilifeform: that's an analogue cradle

asciilifeform: or actually no.

asciilifeform: that's the one

asciilifeform: there we go

asciilifeform: (small pedestal for single drive.)

asciilifeform: incl. one that looked quite like pogo, physically

asciilifeform: nubbins`: they have a whole line

asciilifeform: anybody bother to look into the competitors of 'pogo' (seagate nas, etc.) ?

asciilifeform: brb teatime

asciilifeform: thestringpuller: do you ever leave the house << i do have a day job, as i think i mentioned. it doesn't have fixed hours as such, but i'm away from my perch fairly often.

asciilifeform: punkman: i have not yet discovered the answer to this.

asciilifeform: might vary elsewhere

asciilifeform: from my own perch

asciilifeform: i just picked the price winner.

asciilifeform: and a few others

asciilifeform: jurov, davout: incidentally, 'pogo' is not the only supplier of this kind of thing. 'seagate' has a device with, iirc, identical pcb

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: then - naked.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: do we wish them to remain in their original crates?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: certainly.

asciilifeform: over here i can order now and it'll show by 8'oclock today

asciilifeform: davout: at least you can get it, in theory; iirc in the land of the colocolo and ocelot they cannot be had except by human courier

asciilifeform: this was actually shat forth?

asciilifeform: wai srsly?

asciilifeform: davout: haven't even taken it out of the crate yet

asciilifeform: davout: but it's reserved for autodefloration test

asciilifeform: davout: funnily enough i've a second

asciilifeform: there's cpu to spare

asciilifeform: also jurov's zram idea is actually a good one

asciilifeform: i promised folks a working buildroot for that thing

asciilifeform: but didn't quite get around to it yet

asciilifeform: disassembled for attachment of jtag probes

asciilifeform: not presently

asciilifeform: 8g

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no restraints on that box, just valgrind

asciilifeform: davout: nope. bastard node test on x86.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ~3 days

asciilifeform: 275384

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if your node can't survive being linked in -assets, it probably isn't fit to fight in the great war

asciilifeform: mod6: the second version posted uses lists of ip in plain ascii

asciilifeform: mod6: use my liveness tester

asciilifeform: exposure of weapons-grade nodes to the internet at large << wai wat?! how would node function off the net ?

asciilifeform: but certainly not real-time current.

asciilifeform: mod6: i actually don't know precisely how old

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes!

asciilifeform: of questionable veracity to begin with

asciilifeform: mod6: you realize these are ancient numbers

asciilifeform: whether ready or not

asciilifeform: mod6: we're connecting, by chance to nodes that do not have full sync << we also get every new block thrown at us

asciilifeform: (with no additional code)
