trinque: obviously I want such a vtron for the cuntoo final cut, or what's the use of the build process producing a vpatch ☟︎
mod6: lol, I don't know how to make it do stuff either, but I guess that's a different problem :]
mod6: but I only ended up with a 'vdiff' binary (maybe this is correct?)
asciilifeform: this thing is supposedly battlefield-ready, but presently loox to me like a ball of yarn for which no working build instruction is posted anywhere
mod6: asciilifeform: yeah, i dunno, it's been a while. i don't have time to tinker with it at the moment, gearing up for month end here.
asciilifeform: maybe i'm thick, and didn't shuffle correctly, or wat. phf can i persuade you to give a working recipe ??
mod6: anyway, it's been a while, so I don't know for sure, but if memory serves, I believe his vtree is incompatible with my vtron, on the whole.
asciilifeform: yea i'd expect it'd be a subchapter of some foreign thing
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform after the girls saw http://trilema.com/2015/laile-ou-la-cuisse/ they identified sysco as the tricatel item, it's a constant butt of jokes.
asciilifeform: i could've sworn there was a mircea_popescu piece re subj
asciilifeform: btw hanbot didja know there is a 'sysco'
mircea_popescu: the entire echafaudage of pantsuit is, in last examination, not so much an attempt to protect "the indolent from the active", nor (as separately seen), a guarantee to impotence for "ecology". but rather, jointly and singularly, pantsuitism is an attempt to protect the world from words.
mircea_popescu: THAT is the underlying, "Particularly "criminal" - using a computer in the manner it itself allows to be used." in http://trilema.com/2015/a-new-software-licensing-paradigm/#footnote_2_59725 ; that's WHAT "color of bits" is all about.
mircea_popescu: but how far this goes is breathtaking -- consider, luminaries such as tlp, at the edges arguing exactly that, "words shouldn't have power" ie http://trilema.com/2015/that-unpleasant-moment-when-principles-you-were-supporting-strictly-because-of-the-principle-of-the-thing-and-pointedly-not-because-of-the-convenient-manner-in-which-they-worked-upon-a-restr/#selection-89.0-89.50
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is not a crime, you just have very bizarre approaches to interfacing, is all.
asciilifeform: hanbot: and i haven't got a stable of slaves to sit down and convert'em
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-26#1854794 << this frog has been boiling for a while, hanbot had to redo genesis in like mayu ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-09-26 20:05 BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: You are very welcome. After the fucking two imports bullshit and first DHL flunky insisting on just getting a refund from Amazon, /dev/null is not an option
phf: asciilifeform: i have one, i use it for testing, but it's not particularly kosher, e.g. it uses Argument/Argument_Count etc. i'll post it in a bit, maybe you can rework it on your bench
mod6: <+diana_coman> asciilifeform, hm? I can't quite parse that q; if it helps: I'm using phf's vtools, yes << I'm a bit confused too. I'm still using my vtron.
phf: i just got aarch gnat operational yesterday, so i'll republish it as a single tree anyway, but as of right now i think only esthlos's v does the fancy graph resolution
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: You are very welcome. After the fucking two imports bullshit and first DHL flunky insisting on just getting a refund from Amazon, /dev/null is not an option ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Still going to look for a copy of Dr. Tristan Narvaja's Código Civil de la República Oriental del Uruguay at the feria named for the fellow
BingoBoingo: Tonight I am checking and printing paperwork, tomorrow catching a bus and registering as an importer
BingoBoingo: things. For its part however DINAMA will not be collecting a fee for its part in registering the business of me as an importer exempt from producing a waste management plan.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: lemme know asap when you learn whether the disk crate went irretrievably into /dev/null or not << At this point I am waiting for confirmation on my theory of the problem. I have identified the proper trámite and paper work it requires. If I am right in this theory other than my time, this will require a cross town bus ride to inconveniently located office to show papers and sign other papers swearing
diana_coman: as said above: it can certainly wait 24 hours and preserve history, what; and anyway, the tester part I see more as a branch only, because of the modifications required for testing purpose only (e.g. making the udp generic)
asciilifeform: it is such a small proggy, that this is not mega-pain
asciilifeform: diana_coman: if you'd rather proceed immediately, and generate a newstyle tree, i'ma read it and sign also.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i'ma bake a new-style set and post closer to nightfall, currently boiling in cauldron of liquishit
mircea_popescu: the things that end up discussed as a result of "wouldja publish proper tree so others can patch on it already"
mircea_popescu: if you must. it'll look retarded, esp after a time passes, but nothing regrinds won't fix anyway.
asciilifeform: i.e. a proper close of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-19#1851882 thrd ☝︎
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I'm not aware of a converter but pinging phf to correct me if I'm wrong
asciilifeform: quite a few cannot. BingoBoingo has the full detail...
asciilifeform: reminds me of a 1890s brit caricature i once saw, where 'esteemed gentleman's beagle has died, and he took it to 2 taxidermists...', one cheapskate, who offered him just skeleton with sock on it, other who used air pump, offered doglike baloon, with the phrase 'human strength can stuff it no further!' caption
asciilifeform: and is that a mermaid tattoo
mircea_popescu: no, that was ugh. hang on, i can only look one at a time
asciilifeform: a ha that was 'hp envoy' not 'envy', wasntit.
mircea_popescu: a ty
asciilifeform: there's a fancy-scaling thing, iirc -scaler sumthing , https://www.dosbox.com/wiki/Scaler seems to have the goods
mircea_popescu: you end up with a postcard. i want it full screen for reals.
asciilifeform: ( i've got a few )
mircea_popescu: it's not particularly useful, "mp just make an iso". but it is a great thing when what you're doing is sitting there going, "look, this, this is then."
mircea_popescu: whereas mount d /mnt/fg4jk43h5kj43hjkfjkerwhfkjrehkjerw takes a while
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun think i've ever mounted a disk by label
asciilifeform: who the fuq has a permanently affixed cdrom nao
mircea_popescu: Mocky in most of yurp a fine solution is to go into countryside, buy ye olde farmhouse, huge space no problems.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: recall, it's the place where 9 in 10 is a d00d, and the chix are in gynecaeum and dun see daylight. supposedly, at least.
mircea_popescu: in argentina the "inspection" consisted of girly from the local tax office following me to the place. i unlocked, she was like "ah, ok" i was like wut ? come inside, have a drink, walked all thios way.
Mocky: BingoBoingo, i see a handful, mainly in sky scrapers, 9 to 5ish hours. havent' found pricing yet
BingoBoingo: Mocky next step would be a Trade License which requires lease of physical location and inspction of same. << What are the Coworks like over there?
Mocky: next step would be a Trade License which requires lease of physical location and inspction of same. third step of filing with immigration service requires both 1 and 2, and at that point only can hire employees and issue residence permits and sponsor foreigners
BingoBoingo: I figure if I can stuff a couple scuffed up dice in the appendix, it's all over for them in less than a month
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-26#1854622 << elbow-deep in lxs ninxs anus now and again is a great contribution to republican value! ☝︎
Mocky: yeah, may take a while
Mocky: mircea_popescu, forming an LLC in Qatar requires a bank deposit of 200k QR (55k USD) which can be withdrawn after the company is formed >> http://www.mec.gov.qa/en/services/commerce-corner/Pages/How-to-establishment-a-new-Commercial-record-and-new-.aspx
mod6 just had a good chuckle at the 'danced the asked-for dance'
asciilifeform: ( i'm not even opposed, there's a rubbish bin right at the post office )
BingoBoingo: And... they specify "artículos eléctricos y artículos electrónicos"; Looks like I am getting a new piece of paper to hang on the wall.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, reading more on DINAMA and Aduanas. At this moment it seems registering as an importer of packaged products and coming up with a waste management plan might do the trick: En el alcance del decreto 260/007 se establece que toda empresa importadora o propietaria de marca que pone en el mercado productos envasados, deben encontrarse inscriptos en el registro que llevala DINAMA y contar o adherir a un plan de gestión de residuos
mircea_popescu: well, also a matter of principles involved. "these schmucks stole my shit, what matters it was only $300" sounds a lot better than "i am so fucking cheap, ima try and beg mom to let me off hook for $75 in damages".
BingoBoingo: But yes this is a civil law system here, and I don't see why anyone who went to a facultad de derecho ought to have any chance if I do case prep.
BingoBoingo: My past civil experiences could have had that effect. The traffic court case over a 75 USD speeding ticket prolly not.
mircea_popescu: "for a date wed, you can come watch me in court"
BingoBoingo: Anyways, in the reading of the now it looks like it could be a small wank where I may have to register the business of myself as an importer of products packaged in non-reusable packaging
BingoBoingo: I'll look for a copy of the code at the Feria Sunday
mircea_popescu: you ever appeared pro se before a court before ?
BingoBoingo: There's a group that regularly smoke circles in front of the datacenter tower, will get on it.
mircea_popescu: you've paid a lot of money to figure out "no items new in box", why not use it.
mircea_popescu: if nothing else, will introduce him to the courts ; and open a whole new lolz front.
asciilifeform: what's it even cost to file, in orcistan, cost of a whiskey?
mircea_popescu: conversion is a civil matter anyway.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unless i'm thick, this needs a specialist who's actually trustworthy, neh
mircea_popescu: i understood the complaint as "apparently someone somewhere is under the impression BingoBoingo can't get 3490874389 crates shipped because there's a law about local morons being limited to 2"
mircea_popescu: "i get it, you have a law about your peons not being allowed to buy shit. good. so ?"
phf: dinamo is a machine for extracting bablos from lohs, asciilifeform should know that. dinama must be a south american variant
mircea_popescu: anyway, the one point here that's not clear to me at all is why would anyone expect uruguayan law applies to us ? BingoBoingo is not a national, what fucking "dinama" ?
asciilifeform: if this were a 'of 4 rockets, 1 falls into the sea' asciilifeform would not blink even.
asciilifeform: it's a winblowz-style eggog.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: do what remains to do to put a proper cross on the grave, and after that i'ma start taking cargo manifest calls.
asciilifeform: sorta why i posted a $5 cable the 1st time.
mircea_popescu: alternatively, source it locally ; or get a company off the ground already, get it a customs agent and process the crates there.
asciilifeform: the old newspapers is worth a shot. and if this fails, it'll have to run like antarctic station, i.e. supply rocket quarterly-semiquarterly, and priced in.
asciilifeform: mod6: lulazon collected a ~30% bakshish prepay on all 4 crates to date; 3 made it, 4th -- somehow not
mod6: diana_coman has a point, aren't we supposed to grease the wheels in such a palce?
diana_coman: my point above was that "derping for week+" + obscure "fault you have to fix" sounds precisely like "I keep asking for a bribe and I did not get any!!"
asciilifeform: 'tis a crying shame that mircea_popescu doesn't live in uy... i suspect there's a cunt somewhere who needs flaying.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, tsk, that's a fee!
asciilifeform: diana_coman: normal people make bakshish request with a 'pay here'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm beginning to suspect enemy action (i.e. some 'well-wisher' made a call to 'the right organs' in orcistan, or somesuch )
asciilifeform: lol , gotta ask what then'd be a 'nonstandard' ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Looks like a standard east azn deportation
BingoBoingo: Related: Will be sleeping at a hostel tonight after spanish class to keep in touch with my roots. That and people give me the heads up when its pizza night (free calories).
mircea_popescu: of course, they gave it a "happy ending", but it's fucking obvious what ~really~ happened.
mircea_popescu: there was a film about "successful negro reclaimed by streets", walk of shame.
mircea_popescu: i can't begin to guess why it'd go nowhere, i mean, a) insulting people by using their own words often works (on retards, why would it not work on people who say what they mean & mean what they say ?) and moreover b) summarization works on everything else, why'd trilema escape it and c) wtf is this strategic superiority jazz and who ever heard of the rhino-mud-birthday-gift issue. and so on
mircea_popescu: lulziest shit ever, there was at the time a whole redditactivism thing that aimed to (somehow) hurtfully & distressfully associate trilema with the expression.
BingoBoingo: Cucking is a thing!
