BingoBoingo: phf: What sort of accomodation are you looking for? Care to stay at the historic Rambler Hostel? ☟︎
asciilifeform: phf: at least you didnt try to solder'em. at one time asciilifeform fell to that depth.
mircea_popescu: phf reserve anyway, can pay within 24 hours
mircea_popescu: phf aha.
mircea_popescu: phf with deedbot ? you don't need one, it's automatic.
mircea_popescu: !!pay phf 0.12697711
asciilifeform: but i suspect phf is right, and ranged-GET evaporated ~everywhere while asciilifeform slept in his cave.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 17:27 phf: content-type is a meaningless header, since that's up to client to decide anyway (and it's frequently misconfigured), all the other headers are straight up metadata fluff.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 17:26 phf: we can reduce everything to just get requests (cut the headers, too, except for Content-Length), where ranges are done by "/downloads?file=...&start=...&end"
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:56 phf: that's fair, you could do GET with a range of 0 bytes at 0 offset
mircea_popescu: phf he was headed straight into "no such thing as static content, you can discover this whenever you re-read the same words in a trilema article", but he sidestepped.
asciilifeform: phf: it is also a v-ism, that's the thing
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:49 asciilifeform: phf: imho 'what, if anything changed' is a q that oughta be answered by a mechanism that can do it, when (as often is) wanted for the ~entire site~ compactly
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:40 phf: i suspect local orcs have alternative paths for procurement, was sop in russia in the 90s. you could go to "official dealer" type place and pay 10x, or you would haggle for price at Gorbushka, bazar style
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:41 asciilifeform: phf: i strongly suspect that nobody but gringo rubes ever order from these Official catalogues, or pay ANY vat, EVER
mircea_popescu: phf problem with that item is that it always has counterstrike videocards rarely server rack mobos.

mircea_popescu: phf works.
asciilifeform: phf: my personal favourite, DELETE
mircea_popescu: phf you set on that 13th ?
asciilifeform: i dun think i've ever used PUT... hey trinque ? phf ? ever used ?
asciilifeform: phf: it isn't even clear to me why we need both PUT and POST
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it'd look like trinque and phf 's answers re HEAD
asciilifeform: ( or phf ? somebody who http-ates ? )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i think phf possibly was alluding to ordinary orc-theft of cargo, rather than the usgistic sort
mircea_popescu: phf very different levels of "not in custody", even if we're accepting the objection.
mircea_popescu: phf compare like things. (phf, bb meet ; boxes in republican custody whole time, delivered) $x vs (fedexed boxes) $y.
mircea_popescu: phf which costs are you comparing ?
asciilifeform: phf: unless somebody's got a dedicated 3u travel crate, they prolly oughta move in the vendor crates
mircea_popescu: phf the plan here is : 2 boxes alf already has + 5ish for me, depending on what we manage to extract out of his menu a la carte + some pogos if we are satisfied these can be run up.
asciilifeform: phf: ~3~ machiens
ben_vulpes: anyways phf oi
ben_vulpes: phf: you have rackcrate? get from asciilifeform ?
mircea_popescu: phf as i said, none of this refers to item at hand.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes conceivably could fedex to phf once this is sealed ?
mircea_popescu: phf you can also book with a day+ layover in panama on your way back. for one thing you get to see the place and despise panama for good reason rather than by hearsay ; for the other flight over here is ~1hr ~every hour. ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: phf avianca is not cheap, just bad.
mircea_popescu: phf avianca is TERRIBLE
mircea_popescu: phf where did you look from and what airline ?
asciilifeform recently met phf in the meat for 1st time
a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 17:17 a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 16:49 phf: etc. but the most pantsuit aspect of this situation? the infamous well written freebsd documentation is not up to date to any of these new improvements.
asciilifeform: phf: i believe it. and even believe that phf saw it. was curious where , exactly, is all.
asciilifeform: phf: in my experience in past decade, ~everybody supports resumed-downloads
asciilifeform: phf: out of curiosity, why not 'get with 0' ?
asciilifeform: phf: and yes
asciilifeform: phf: incidentally, why can't you achieve same effect as HEAD by using the 'chunked' feature of GET ?
asciilifeform: phf: exactly so
asciilifeform: phf: what else..?
asciilifeform: phf: imho 'what, if anything changed' is a q that oughta be answered by a mechanism that can do it, when (as often is) wanted for the ~entire site~ compactly ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 16:20 phf: re upstack, there's been a resurgence of sorts of gopher protocol, various hipsters spinning up personal websites, etc. whether the resurgence was shortlived or i'm just late to the game, but there's already a community of wreckers (one of them groups is coming from this federated twitter platform, mastodon) discussing all the various ways that they want to "improve" gopher, tls, utf-8, markdown renderer, "minimal subset of html", etc. but at the same

a111: Logged on 2018-02-01 21:24 phf: diana_coman: ty, i'll try wiring it in, and keep you posted. i assume ada<>c interop is pretty straightforward, though i won't have a chance to try until later next week. suddenly busy
asciilifeform: ty phf !
diana_coman: phf, ada<->C interop was quite straightforward last time I tried it, didn't take much at all; you'll need to add a few exports iirc
diana_coman: phf, chapter 8 of eucrypt is a fully-working Keccak, albeit at bit level
a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 16:51 phf: all the userlevel tools that syscons used? nope, entirely new set of tools for doing pretty much anything, ~with a completely different argument list~
a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 16:49 phf: etc. but the most pantsuit aspect of this situation? the infamous well written freebsd documentation is not up to date to any of these new improvements. ☟︎
asciilifeform: phf: err, strike that, suspend mode worked on vista!11
mod6: hai phf, asciilifeform
asciilifeform: phf: thus far sounds about as much fun as a winblowz vista box
asciilifeform: what box is this, exactly, phf ?
asciilifeform: but phf did mention 'butcher cut', i'm curious what the obvious wtfs were
asciilifeform: phf: did it ever get a working /dev/random back ?
a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 14:01 asciilifeform: ( i posted even a patched, with own hand , bios for it, iirc phf uses ; and a kernel conf )
a111: Logged on 2016-01-17 06:23 phf: but you're not supposed to touch those files directly, oh no, they are undocumented and what are you some kind of terrorist. instead there's 20 incompatible power/suspend/battery/sensor/fans/specialkeys control daemons in various states of disarray. "oh, if your fans don't kick in you want termald, or try batterd, which works with new lzmi acpi functions."

mp_en_viaje: phf, i spotted lots, mostly getting the butt pocket. nfi why people kept wallets in there in the 80s
asciilifeform: phf: lol!
mp_en_viaje: phf, there is such a thing as a snatcher, and such a thing as a pickpocket. though... social behaviours serve social purposes. "it's dangerous!!!" for instance works very well for selection. anecdote : ro consul introduced pretty girl, intern at embassy. over sushi she confessed her unimpressment in local boys, "i was walking down candeleria and these dorks were lke o no, it's gotten dark, it's dangerous and soon enough made themselves scarce. wel...
mp_en_viaje: phf, on an office table ? why, to chastise the poor girl ?
mp_en_viaje: phf, ya lol.
mp_en_viaje: phf, but i have my doubts they ever saw the underground mags. for one hand, half of them hand made, for other in french
mp_en_viaje: phf, how's this apply to the "ima photograph missile silo" set for instance ?
mp_en_viaje: phf, i suspect this nver happens, "evolve into one another". seems t ome it'salways 100% new biostock
mp_en_viaje: phf, why do you think it died ? going by what, some measure of www activity /
asciilifeform: phf: i went to 1 or 2 of those particular meets
asciilifeform: phf: right, exactly it
asciilifeform: phf: ha, i had nfi a1025 could eat os9. i have 1 (nao sadly dead mb) in the hardware tomb.
asciilifeform: phf: on what do you have os9 running ?
shinohai: !~later tell phf http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/eicC1/?raw=true
shinohai: !!key phf
asciilifeform: phf: 'if you're reading it, it's for you!111' (tm)(r)(tlp)
phf: and phf became enlightened
asciilifeform: phf: why didja truncate to the ffa bitness ?
asciilifeform: phf: chew this apart for me ?
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf ch9
shinohai: phf was going to, maybe when more sluts arrive. I thought emmylark was under the auspices of mircea_popescu
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> phf: in my experience the magic word is 'commercial sample for demo'. but only worx with suitcases. << Personal effects
asciilifeform: phf: in my experience the magic word is 'commercial sample for demo'. but only worx with suitcases.
asciilifeform: phf: worx with variable success. didn't , for instance, for FG to diana_coman
mircea_popescu: phf so you are actually saying that there's some kind of way to look at the situation that has both endian notations stand on equality footing ?
asciilifeform finds that he agrees with phf : like it or not, a good % of the cheap and effective older iron that is and will remain in use in tmsr , specifically in opposition to x86ism, is big-endian.
mircea_popescu: i didn't know phf published anyuthing yet ?
mircea_popescu: phf i am aware. do you actually want to make this an objection ?
asciilifeform: phf: phunphakt : ppc is one of the two currently-produced archs ( the other being arm ) that doesn't have constant-time MUL .
asciilifeform: phf: actually opposite
a111: Logged on 2018-01-26 22:16 phf: "... Only joint action by the G20 countries, as proposed by France and Germany, could be enough to become a game changer. ..."
trinque: hey, phf has one
mircea_popescu: phf the actual trick i use to force a "no, go down obv branch" is by prepending a "you know" or whatever. but, sure.
mircea_popescu: phf certainly.
