phf: huh, i haven't
asciilifeform: trb in 256M ain't happening.
asciilifeform: btw in case this wasn't clear, this was zoolag , which did 2+ yrs of 24/7 trb.
asciilifeform: possibly one could try building a netbsd that doesn't try to touch the usb chip at all. then enjoy setting up sans keyboard. ☟︎

asciilifeform: mod6: i elementarily don't have the time.
asciilifeform: because the shitware iron does not in fact follow anything resembling a spec. it follows a liquishit that would take up five walls of book if ever put to paper -- which it won't be -- and co-developed with winblowz shitware driver, which ~runs, and rathead shitware 'open' sores driver, which runs, and naught ever else.
asciilifeform: infuriating idiocy. apparently it won't run on any. x86. box. with. usb3. at. all.
asciilifeform: ( and in fact it ran on my pogo. but that doesn't produce a usable trb node. )
mod6: I did run into this once before with someone else, can't remember whom. But yeah, some default install of $linux that doesn't come with anything.
mod6: Haven't heard back yet, but instructed to install whatever package contains `patch` and proceed from there.
asciilifeform: ( they didn't own a fab, either, contracted )
asciilifeform: because fab ain't cheap.
asciilifeform: upstack : in case it wasn't obvious : it is possible to make ddr2 sdram controller , nic, etc.
mircea_popescu: you don't say.
mircea_popescu: this is the problem. don't give orc fucking teflon tape.
mircea_popescu: if they didn't have access to human tools and tech generally, their stupidity would be unsustainable.
mircea_popescu: andf in the "don't do more damage than the shop would charge ; and don't take longer than it'd take to take to shop" view... god help us. 0% and leave it at that.
asciilifeform: and it ain't a 'cable too short' either -- i used a 4-metre fiber
mircea_popescu: you mean, you had a boxed fg running and it produced 20GB of entropy so far and you can't detect anything more or less than with an unboxed FG ?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-04#1693844 << o hey, turns out you didn't even need america's fastest lyoinnais transported flat tv screens for anything ? win. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-04#1693840 << i didn't fucking know. explain plox! starting with https://keybase.io/images/tracking/maria_twitter.jpg perhaps. so what was it, mircea_popescu = m1rcea_p0pescu ? and what else, 6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452 = 2FB7B452 = ae1be204f735a3ff19160b68dcf5b06d2FB7B452 ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: aaand in other "isn't this lulzy", Aug 04 02:21:45 * mircea_popescu has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) Aug 04 02:21:45 * Disconnected (Remote host closed socket).
asciilifeform: it isn't the only compat. devboard , by any means. but probably the smallest and most self-contained.
mircea_popescu: " Our goal: smack-dab in the middle of a public Reddit or HackerNews or Twitter conversation, you should be able to say "Hey, I threw those gifs/libraries/whatever in our encrypted keybase folder" without ever asking for more identifying info. If that person hasn't installed Keybase yet, your human work is still done. They can join and access the data within seconds, and your device will quietly handle the verification and re
mircea_popescu: somehow that they all use the EXACT FUCKING TWO LINES as per the usg permit doesn't bother them. what, all lemmings think the same way, they independently and distinctly selected the exact some item for their illustrative needs. and they selected it out of the work in discussion, believe, not out of the reichkomissar's permit.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: and when pharaon ramses rules from anchorage, they will 'vote' ramses. beggars ain't agents.
asciilifeform: i suppose from humane pov they oughta be put out of their misery, but rockets cost money and i can't picture anyone will ever spare one for them.
mircea_popescu: not here, see. item was import, made for sale in eu. consequently cr folk don't have thge keys, resulting in a very panicked mecanic.
mircea_popescu: i don't get it, how is it not legal to buy a fucking tool ?!
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron re " I'm not looking forward to learning how to get data out of a mysql database located on the hard drive of a system that doesn't boot anymore." : generally you can find mysql's data files in /var/lib/mysql/[database_name]. there's going to be in that dir a .myi and a .myd for each table in your db. if you simply create the old db in the new place and copy them over it'll prolly work. if not, you'll have to co
mircea_popescu: apparently they lost 3-4 dozen people to gunfire (from 3 militants) and can't hire replacements.
asciilifeform: phun phakt, not long ago asciilifeform toured 'iraq embassy' ( there's an 'embassy expo' each yr in dc ). it was quite clear that the place isn't actually used in the daily sense
mircea_popescu: ah, independence doesn't discuss that. what, iraq's been "independent" forever, still gazpromistan.
mircea_popescu: can't seem to find it, but im pretty sure it was a thing.
mircea_popescu: also, funny item re hetzner : back in 2014, there was a large demonstration in novosibirsk in favour of you know, russia losing siberia. the russian govt pressured everyone to not discuss the matter, including bbc. the ukrainians at the time didn't feel inclined to comply, so hetzner took glavcom.ua and others offline, because hey, unlicensed republic.
asciilifeform: it doesn't talk, no.
mircea_popescu: oddly enough it doesn't seem to actually try to spam or anything. and too little name variation for a lost soul looking for its cc.
mircea_popescu: "doesn't work, but cheap!"
shinohai: I didn't get kb so I take it they at least tolerated.
mod6: cocksuckers, if i can't use it with lynx, do not want to use it.
mircea_popescu: trinque in principle it shouldn't have anything to do with your node, all that jazz.
asciilifeform: that statute doesn't have damage quota
asciilifeform: he isn't being accused of theft
mircea_popescu: this isn't evne grand theft is it.
phf: that's how the heatsink is attached to the surface, but i wasn't sure if it can handle the fan vibration
phf: relatedly i couldn't figure out how to attach the fan to the board without drilling into it. there's like two possible mount points, but requires machining a custom brace
mircea_popescu: (ie, doesn't need decryption, can simply compare)
asciilifeform: dunno why he doesn't buy the tool used in http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1871
mircea_popescu: "So, it appears thermal stress on the Ivory CPU isn't the problem, or that the thermal stress is too great for that small heatsink to keep up with." do they not have laser thermometers where these people live or what is the problem here ?!
mircea_popescu: "oh, we don't know". riight. and putin has problems.

At this point we've been trying to get in contact with Marcus for 18 hours and nobody knows where he's been taken," the person added. "We still don't know why Marcus has been arrested and now we have no idea where in the US he's been taken to'
trinque: I haven't.
asciilifeform: and didn't say anything headdeskingly foolish, even.
asciilifeform: don't settle for inserting road cone into the bastard's arse, insert telephone pole.

trinque: doesn't match, sorry folks, going back to the last transaction batch
mircea_popescu: trinque http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-01#1691909 still hasn't been certified. is it a fee thing or something else ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: https://archive.is/5TW5M << 'we read #trilema and won't say it and ergo We Thought Of It All Ourselves '
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would register width matter ? can't have 4 bit gnat for some reason ?
asciilifeform: tho it ain't so much 'lisp crowd' as much as californirasts.
mircea_popescu: constantinople wasn't so important militarily ; but certainly in the copying monk sense here discussed. even after the venetians sacked it, it still had shit.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: know also, these weren't in any sense whatsoever multiuser.
asciilifeform: it ain't terribly useful as a headless deployment thing, tho, really shines as dev tool
mircea_popescu: anyway, the idea was, restaurants don't work like apple stores, there's a "concept store" etc. they work more like music acts i guess.
phf: i think if he stuck to the original "cyberia" vision from The Hackers instead of leaning towards the whole san francisco cyber goth thing, but then you can't really bring new york cool to san francisco anyway
mircea_popescu: the way it usually works is that they lose focus vision but retain lateral vision (this is how chet's eyes work). this then can through intensive training be taken to the point where you can actually write code. whereas surgery to implant a) doesn't yield very good focus vision and b)c threatens complete destruction of peripheral remnants.
mircea_popescu: o ? i wasn't aware that was solved even.
asciilifeform: betcha there ain't a single nonx86 comp ( or nonx86 brain!11 ) in that bldg right nao
asciilifeform: was 1st porta-comp that wasn't 'oscilloscope' shaped
phf: the later, in fact that little snippet of quails piping in reminded my why i don't spend time on bolix.
asciilifeform: it ain't any kind of mystery how to contact asciilifeform , or where
asciilifeform: phf: y'know if you suspected the mail ain't getting through -- could have asked.
asciilifeform: d00d ain't an archaeologist, he's a grave robber.
asciilifeform: why not ask him why he didn't bittorrent WHOLE MOTHERFUCKING STASH
asciilifeform: it isn't the typical pit of screaming imbeciles, tru
asciilifeform: you can't hardwarize 2.
asciilifeform: huamnreadables come in variablewidths, so this doesn't work in physical reality.
pete_dushenski: in other "we didn't mean to phork ITWASAJOKE", http://archive.is/JGbb0
asciilifeform: ( and if i were producing $box by the million, i wouldn't deal with these derps and use their weird arch, but have my own asiced. )
asciilifeform: ( that doesn't rely on closed xilinx 20GB turdchain to fill, doesn't contain a flash rom, doesn't double as a frying pan )
mircea_popescu: i don't think it was ever any good.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you can't have infinitely elastic registers. there's N bits , physically.
asciilifeform: ditto for a die made with particular process -- empty space doesn't get your money back
asciilifeform: correct. but the answers to these depend SEVERELY on the substrate. for instance, if your thing lives in a fpga, not filling it up doesn't make it cycle any faster. so you want to actually use the available gates, if they can be used productively
mircea_popescu: i don't see this in pravda.
pete_dushenski: the difference being, pravda didn't used to publish post-interrogation bitching by defendent. now... does.
pete_dushenski: like, no shit dude, wtf kinda revelation is this. another quiet #t reader, apparently.
asciilifeform: for clarity : asciilifeform ain't inluvv with superH. but he ~does~ search for a cpu where 1) respectable (say, even trb-capable) horse 2) no internal flash rom 3) not ARM
asciilifeform: the shitboard ain't.
asciilifeform: anyway this isn't half the grief : if it were just a matter of flashing, i could flash via crocodiles, applied externally. but you need the debugger to singlestep.
mircea_popescu: but didn;'t the dorks need to use some kind of debugger to get it to boot linux anything ?
asciilifeform: this doesn't change the fact that the only other non-internalflashed serious-horsepower chips are ARMs.
phf: maybe it helps with a local carrier? "i was at this party with such and such" works on people who don't usually go to parties with such and such
phf: well, i don't exercise to stay skinny though, i don't have problems with that. it's more like that scene from Highlander, where they run on the beach just because they are ridiculously fit and it feels good. if i don't do any of these things, i start feeling like a modern man, slow and broken.
mircea_popescu: whereas i was in my best shape in my 20s also : i ate steak for breakfast, three deserts a day, i don't think i ever went to bed before ingurgigating 4k calories and i was mostly so skinny, if i laid on my back in swim trunks i could see my own dick.
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-02#1692523 << i think the need to exercise is a measure of non-freedom, one of those activities that only exists in relation to wage slavery. like leisure or tourism or happy hours. i was in my best shape when i didn't work, mostly fucked, climbed abandoned buildings and went for very long walks. now exercise is basically a need in order to break static friction of sedentary lifestyle. i do though believe in natsoc kind o ☝︎
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron well, depends if you're willing to commit or not ; but this has to be an afore-the-fact decision. can't be "let's see", that just causes grief.
asciilifeform: '...Lackman's belongings still haven't been returned. Nor can he access the TVAddons website or its social media accounts, which were also seized as part of the original order. That's because Bell, Rogers and Videotron have appealed the court decision and a Federal Court of Appeal judge has ruled that until the appeal can be heard, Lackman will get nothing back.'
