asciilifeform: i'ma bbl, then, meat queue overfloweth .
BingoBoingo: Informerly local news: https://www.bnd.com/news/politics-government/election/article218745425.html#storylink=hpdigest << I have met two of those derps from the experience of having met them.
verisimilitude: On that topic, I've been using GuixSD for a bit; what are you using, asciilifeform?
verisimilitude: I'm having issues on my Thinkpad with it. I didn't have all of the software installed here.
asciilifeform: ( i dun think it took me > half hr to bake pgp key )
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: you have roughly half hr, cuz i gotta get up soon
verisimilitude: If I don't get it before I run out of time again, I'll just do it later.
trinque: verisimilitude: anyhow I wont mind swapping your key later if you want to generate one in more sanitary conditions later, provided you sign for me the new key with old.
verisimilitude: I'm mostly just joking around, yes.
verisimilitude: Well, it probably wouldn't be this long if I really had to give it that much thought.
verisimilitude: I'll try, but I can't make any promises.
verisimilitude: Oh; I don't have PGP on the Yeeloong; oh well.
verisimilitude: Once I get this PGP nonsense sorted out, I'll tell you a story.
asciilifeform: ^ will def. want to read, i suspect.
verisimilitude: I'd expect those this concerned would host their own IRC.
asciilifeform: i also lazy
verisimilitude: You must understand that I'm very lazy.
asciilifeform: good; i'ma rate you
verisimilitude: I'm generating it right now.
asciilifeform: i recommend to reg key, won't repeat again.
verisimilitude: I take it ``unbuilt'' isn't code for ``broken''.
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: i've an unbuilt 'btc wallet on 6502' item, for instance.
verisimilitude: I'd wager I could fit an MMC targeting the 6502 in 64K with only minimal bank switching for larger programs.
asciilifeform: i want my 4000 transistor cpu and i'ma get it.
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: verily, i tried with own hands to source a m68k for modern manufacture, and failed utterly
verisimilitude: I'm rather fond of Big-Endian CISC machines, but those are all rather dead nowadays.
mircea_popescu: well, in any case fitter for your prototyping needs as i can see them atm.
asciilifeform: i fucking hate arm, as an arch
asciilifeform: in fact, quite likely i'ma bake it as soon as mircea_popescu blows the trumpet and decrees that it's time.
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: i've been looking into ( and if you read logs, will know this... ) baking a mips machine.
verisimilitude: It's because I own this hardware that I intend for the first MMC targeting a ``real'' machine to target MIPS. I decided if I ever got one, I'd try to understand it well enough to run my own software directly on the bare metal and in the boot firmware.
verisimilitude: I suppose I can use the Yeeloong to generate a PGP key.
asciilifeform: i ( and iirc mircea_popescu also once ) tried to buy 'elbrus' also, 0dice
verisimilitude: I mostly use it as an OpenBSD Emacs machine.
asciilifeform: over the years i tried to locate one, somewhere, for some money, 0 dice
verisimilitude: I didn't even pay $400 for it.
verisimilitude: Anyway, I'm fortunate enough to own one of those.
verisimilitude: I've noticed only one result in the logs for ``yeeloong''.
asciilifeform: i got one of'em decadent western hp48 also, yes
verisimilitude: I like my HP 48 series calculators more, yes.
asciilifeform: the time to have the mk61 was when you were 5, i suspect
verisimilitude: I have an MK-61, but no use for it.
verisimilitude: I'll take a look.
asciilifeform: i suspect verisimilitude will enjoy the http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1822445 thread. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> i'm quite certain that it can be made to. <
asciilifeform only ever built a +ver'd kernel when ran into a piece of i/o iron that could not be brought to life any other way
asciilifeform: cant speak for others, but not i.
mircea_popescu: but if this is not so, i'd much rather find out sooner than later.
mircea_popescu: "i just happened to get dragged to 3.6 line along, dunno"
a111: Logged on 2018-09-24 23:24 trinque: the kernel in current cuntoo is 4.9.95, by virtue solely of being when I took the snapshot
mircea_popescu: i would propose ~none of yhou use it for no serious reason, like http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-24#1853922 ☝︎
asciilifeform: i'm quite certain that it can be made to.
asciilifeform: there's another, larger one, if you want to use the hdmi display thing, but i dun use it anywhere
asciilifeform: pretty much whole i/o set
mircea_popescu: yeah but i mean...
mircea_popescu: i don't want losing rk, wut.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but i'm not particularly excited by idea of losing rk
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i wouldn't be opposed to at least attempting to backport 3.x driverola to 2.6
verisimilitude: I wasn't familiar with that, no, asciilifeform.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i suspected the kernel thing will be uphill.
mircea_popescu: i seriously am going to have to drop 2.x kernels ? this is kinda scandalous.
verisimilitude: No; I'm just bored.
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: i have quite a few items in own notebook similar to yours, from decade+ ago. lemme guess, were you stuck on uninhabited island ? ☟︎
verisimilitude: I'll consider it.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lol i have a bunch of photos just like that of timis orcs
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: i highly recommend it, right now you're in approx the position of that random fella who sat down in a cargo plane and took off on a lark ☟︎
verisimilitude: So, I should write I'm only familiar with this channel because of loper-os.
verisimilitude: I've not read them in any detail; I take it I have it wrong, then.
verisimilitude: That's just to make certain I don't start out confused.
verisimilitude: I assume you're Stanislav.
verisimilitude: Yes; I know of here because of you, asciilifeform.
verisimilitude: I wanted to make a derivative of P" and Brainfuck that was difficult to compile and also make a crude joke.
asciilifeform: dare i to ask what is gained from this ?
verisimilitude: I haven't done that yet, though.
verisimilitude: I've been meaning to refine it and also have a version without color.
verisimilitude: I didn't write the game, but I did write that document.
verisimilitude: I stopped by to perhaps get your opinions or to see what you all are working on lately.
verisimilitude: I call this Meta-Machine Code (MMC) and the article detailing it in general is here:
verisimilitude: For the past several years I'd had the idea of a machine code development tool in my mind and for over a year now I've been working to breathe life into it.
verisimilitude: I'll explain my big project as of now.
verisimilitude: I suppose it would be easy to introduce myself by linking to my website.
verisimilitude: I appreciate it, mircea_popescu.
mircea_popescu: but i suppose if you're running a camwhore site or something. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i dunno doing what ; even something like the ssh census worked fine on 100mb interface.
asciilifeform: i suppose oughta add, afaik nobody made in '06 box where i can 256GB ram
mircea_popescu: i see eulora server was built in 4.14.7
asciilifeform: i suppose if you dun need post-'04 irons, worx great
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i use 2.6 ~everywhere.
mircea_popescu: trinque i fucking grepped
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the oldest i have on currently serving box anywhere is 3.8.8
mircea_popescu: i mean which kernel version.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not being a debianist, i cannot immediately say which edition of it this'd correspond to
asciilifeform: i'll consider backports of patches that fix e.g. 'magic packet of death', but not 'spectre' etc rubbish
asciilifeform: i.e. isolation on x86 is illusory
asciilifeform: ( i have a buncha pc boxen running 3.x and entirely satisfied with'em )
asciilifeform: i wouldn't even object to cementing a 3.x, supposing i had a working one for rk
asciilifeform: i currently dun have a strong opinion re which 4.x is cementable
asciilifeform: 4.9.76 on dulap, and slightly earlier iirc in rk branch ( will have to maintain at least these 2 forks , i suspect )
trinque: the kernel in current cuntoo is 4.9.95, by virtue solely of being when I took the snapshot ☟︎
asciilifeform: i.e. may as well gather the win to be had from firing the first rockets.
