mircea_popescu: a superficial cat | strings | grep yielded a bunch of old stuff so it doesn't appear dataloss is guaranteed.
phf: it's pretty tmsr too. "if it can't fly, it doesn't deserve to live anyway"
lobbes: mircea_popescu: Nah nothing really. I noticed you pasted that link earlier but bot didn't quote. I think you were just too fast for it
lobbes: Odd it didn't quote earlier
mircea_popescu: i can't comprehend what'd possibly take this long to repair it.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: sorry i forgot or didn't know that you actually in fact restarted it.
Framedragger: (then `FLUSH TABLES` should remove any outstanding locks if still any; but don't take my word for it)
mircea_popescu: but the box doesn't deliver, theoretically, anything but a text line now
mircea_popescu: table isn't innodb.
mircea_popescu: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you don't , http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-30#1593662 ☝︎
mircea_popescu is steeling self for discovering mysql dosn't allow over x bytes in any one column or such closely managed nonsense
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: you're putting it in mysql aren't you, and making php generate a table or sth?
mircea_popescu: aaaand in other lulz...trilema can't actually hold a 3mb data dumb.
asciilifeform: well of 'apparatchiks won't pay their mortgages', 'berkeley starves', etc
asciilifeform: all the while, mr.t read official speech 'i changed my mind...' etc, is poised to fight the clitler wars.
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in monkeystan, https://archive.is/z8x2c >> 'You don't handle sarin-saturated bodies *without gloves* - unless you're a Syrian rebel trying to pull off yet another hoax.'

mircea_popescu: no i don't. i want... omfg 4th time.. THE WHOLE TABLE
a111: Logged on 2017-04-06 12:33 mircea_popescu: except google can't index it because the /stats/ dies on it i guess.
mircea_popescu: except google can't index it because the /stats/ dies on it i guess. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: even at a time people couldn't be arsed to ~physically inspect~ russkis anymore, just paid for the cargo whole.
mircea_popescu: i don't think i ever saw anyone pay for a brit.
Framedragger: "this is not my kind of place" "what am i doing with my life" "also i can't answer these questions"
mircea_popescu: now tell me she wouldn't be happier as a declared slave for a republican lord ; rather than a doublespoken slave for nobody-in-particular in the stupid empire.
Framedragger: (again, i may have gotten more info by physically presenting myself at a particular delivery office, showing ID and so on, but i wasn't up for that.)
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-29#1634033 << that's all i have: http://imgur.com/a/SPFBI (stuff that was stickied on the parcel). i had unfortunately thrown out the 'postcard' from royal mail, but it was a single slip which literally only said "we can't post you this because this got held up. go online and put in a reference number". the latter opened a "PAY NOW" form, and that's it. ☝︎
Framedragger: that didn't work till i read that the password is now phuctor. omg lmao
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform answer't.
shinohai hopes mircea_popescu 's Russian chicks aren't anti-semitic
asciilifeform: Over the last two days 37500 ETH has been withdrawn from the multisig wallet by the CEO, Yonatan Ben Shimon without any explanation or announcement due to the need for "hedging". Yonatan keeps claiming he's working with Bitcoin Suisse and it's all okay, but so far I haven't seen any evidence of this. I suggest you all demand an explanation and keep a close watch. In all likelihood your guppies are worthless- the terms and conditions
asciilifeform: i can't speak re serious inner-party (above box is 1 of the 3 uni of chicago found so far) but for proles, house owner is expected to front 1/4 - 1/2 of the cost.
asciilifeform: the inverters ain't cheap, either.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can't imagine anyone paid for this.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform interestingly some don't respond.
mircea_popescu: "chump". it's all paid by unfunded future payments which ain't fucking happening.
mircea_popescu: well, "cost them". obama gave them 48 mn or some shit, of which they kept 3, the obama-contractor kept 11, the obama-producer kept 16, and the end result was 100ish MW (wthose thigs aren't accurate) over 5 years ie about 5 grand worth of "Clean" power.
asciilifeform: this is data you couldn't beat out the vendor with any sized stick.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-04 22:32 mircea_popescu: think in terms of that cartoon re final cs class at stanford : "and you are the idiots who didn't get hired in 2nd or 3rd year". same deal, whoring is a fine plan for cut-above-rest 16yo. by the time she's 30 she's either married or too rich to care.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> sorry i can't hear you over the sound of hillary clinton's pantsuit. << lel
asciilifeform: meanwhile, gas attack Officially Proclaimed (incl. by mr.t) to be asad's.
asciilifeform: 'oh but mr.t will CHANGE THINGS!1111' lol
mircea_popescu: eh, i'm sure they don't imagine the actual blockchain may get lost.
danielpbarron: oh you mean they don't sell the old ones? that's always been the case. they make a run and sell till they sell out
asciilifeform: (yes, you will need a stack of disks, what, 15 dvd ? that ain't so much. and it compresses pretty well.)
phf: asciilifeform: i can't find any announcement. only mention is on the front page, everywhere else it's same as it's always been
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: 'modify' with microwave oven ain't the sort of modification i was speaking of, no.
asciilifeform: (incidentally if you go coreboot, you don't need a bootloader...)
danielpbarron: asciilifeform, i don't see where i would set 'legacy' mode in my bios
mircea_popescu: because otherwise it doesn't loop and fails to find it.
danielpbarron: i don't think it's exotic. hp xw9400 workstation
danielpbarron: i don't have a copy. maybe freenode dropped a line idk
shinohai: danielpbarron: Didn't I give yu a copy?
danielpbarron: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-05#1638106 << whatever the defaults. and before anyone says "why didn't you backup" -- I do have a mysqldump containing most of the articles. missing the last few between last dump and system death. ☝︎
asciilifeform: if the sun were still shining on the brit empire, and 'no shit , the monkeys are monkeys, we simply haven't gotten around to rendering them for meat and occupying the valuable lands' -- this position would be tenable.
mircea_popescu: pity headcount doesn;t do anything by itself.
asciilifeform: there is an opposite of it, that you don't get to hear about much,
phf: Framedragger: right, you have dom, you have running javascript, can do all kinds of things to dump/before dump. what you don't have through any legitimate means is the byte sequence for a linked object. at least with headless webkit (via Qt) you can instrument cache with special methods that would give you that data. selenium not at all
CompanionCube: asciilifeform: but putin wouldn't get much more power unlike bush
Framedragger: asciilifeform: do you mean that "single archive request handled by dedicated process which terminates at end of request" wouldn't be enough in terms of cleanup? (due to js as vector of attack to machine?)
CompanionCube: doesn't seem that good of a fit
CompanionCube: isn't that for automatic website testing
mircea_popescu: well i didn't want to archive "artists" flash bs in 2007 either
asciilifeform: 'and, bonus! evil TERRORISTS! can't archive it!'
phf: right, not to mention competing rendering engines ("system wide library doesn't kern glyphs the way our ui designer thinks is appropriate so we do it ourselves!!1")
mircea_popescu: phf provided eg "java runtime fonts" aren't there on top of x11-fonts etc
phf: asciilifeform: there's ~one~ true type library, but it's called at random times to render a small part of the page, so by simply following the invocations you won't be able to reconstruct how the individual results fit into the on-screen
mircea_popescu: sorry i can't hear you over the sound of hillary clinton's pantsuit.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: not familiar / wouldn't know. my exposure to the whole thing was literally just "found relevant library; hop on irc to ask the author; chat for a while; realise he's blind; ask about his experience"
phf: but it doesn't invovoke truetype ~as one last pass~. instead you have fifty different truetype invocations to lay out a small surface, that's placed into an hierarchy of such surfaces
asciilifeform: it wasn't cheap, or simple, or +ev.
phf: doesn't have to contain rather. i'm sure they don't scrape it diligently enough.
asciilifeform: i don't actually know of a sane way to do this job. which is why i have not ever attempted to do it.
phf: Framedragger: you don't have to expose the user to js with archive.is approach
Framedragger: so, if tmsr were to have its own archiver, i don't think archive.is' approach is the way to go, even though it is (arguably, maybe) the most 'reliable' / 'true' (actual js rendering in browser). exposing user to JS defeats half its purpose. imho.
phf: also, these days you have js packing frameworks (like browserify) doing frontend on-demand js loads, which means that ~browser~ doesn't know when page load is complete. you get "lightweight" pages, that don't actually have anything until 8mb of javascript gets its shit together.
Framedragger: but then if things are coded correctly, it shouldn't be hard to swap irc for gossipd later, imho
Framedragger: hey, who wouldn't, brother
asciilifeform: Framedragger: imho it is tricky: you can't simply 'curl' or 'wget', gotta somehow render crapolade if caching heathen sites
a111: Logged on 2017-04-05 13:04 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-05#1637547 << you certainly need the pubkey of the input address, which was back in the day the rationale behind the whole "don't reuse addresses" thing -- the pubkey of an address which has paid before is known ; the pubkey of an address which has not paid before isn't known.
mircea_popescu: i can't evaluate this./
asciilifeform: people ain't entirely not-bees, noose at eleven.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i didn't mean problem as in "bad thing to fix" i meant problem as in "legitimate topic"
asciilifeform: that ain't a problem. it's how the poison cherries get tasted, oceans -- explored, embrasures -- plugged
mircea_popescu: it's not like genuine science isn't made by genuine scientists. the pretense to the contrary is the other half of the scum delusion. cannonically "you have no option BUT to build raft out of lcd".
diana_coman sees a bit of a younger Diana's shock along the lines of "it can't really be true that 99% of the world I live in is actually rotten to the core" on re-reading Framedragger's replies
mircea_popescu: (for they who don't know, bologna is how you say baloney.)
a111: Logged on 2017-04-05 14:32 Framedragger: that's a great stance of course, but i do believe that this disqualifies all but, i don't know, to speculate, "30" publications SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME
ben_vulpes: there is that, doesn't change that sim is unpublished part of system on basis of which claims are being made
mircea_popescu: eh, people get actual climate datasets all the time, end up exposing "data regularization" in the sense of "our definition of average ocean temperature is = largest measured +3, wut, problem??" it gets reported, people who can think read, people who can't think upvote each other on hn, etc.
ben_vulpes: "138kloc of cpp written by grad students? that i can't have? that only runs on golden toilet supercomputer? mmmok"
mircea_popescu: i don't find it pays for me.
mircea_popescu: of course replicating experiments are done all the time ; the important point being that they didn't identify theirs as such.
mircea_popescu: and since we're discussion princeton : i wasn't going to say anything (which is why i didn't back then), but when some guy found metallic H ( see http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628809 ) princeton idiots came with a replicating experiment and have been trying to replace the original author with themselves ever since. which is just about as shameful. ☝︎
Framedragger: i don't disagree there, of course.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger this great stance happens to have been held for many years, sucyh as for instance when in 2010 diana_coman didn't sleep a weekend to liberate the ro min of edu's data.
diana_coman: and the fact that there is a lot of null published doesn't make it less null
Framedragger: that's a great stance of course, but i do believe that this disqualifies all but, i don't know, to speculate, "30" publications SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME ☟︎
Framedragger: diana_coman: you are forgetting the detail where phuctor wasn't the first to do what it did.
Framedragger: diana_coman: i don't believe that phuctor is *that* important, yes.
