Mocky: on serious consideration, my only obstacle is that I don't have with what to make my ongoing alimony payments. I'm not going to break that promise
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'm talking cairo sandalwood mosq, built before they invented america. not bs ersatz-by-Eszterhas new world bs.
Mocky: fuck, i can't come up with a good reason not to
mircea_popescu: "but mp... how would i breathe there ?" "i dunno. hold it ?"
Mocky: lets see, never been, don't speak lang, never started a business, in what way could i actually be a good partner other than willing to go?
mircea_popescu: but until then, we can be partners, i'll pay for the fare.
mircea_popescu: if you do get anywhere with it, i'll squeeze this beedog here to go join you, so you have a sort of "mega engineer achievement unlocked" built in. and after that i guess i'll even chip in so you buy a prepubescent wife in the countryside.
Mocky: i don't allah. i pantomimed allahing in mosques in my youff when visiting family. no arabic either
mircea_popescu: i suppose "gawr" bettrer english notation of orig tc. gâvur.
mircea_popescu: i thought so when it first started, but it's been ongoing for years now
asciilifeform: so what's the nifty thing in qatar, i think i missed
mircea_popescu: i cackle inaudibly.
asciilifeform: dun fughet to cackle, i hear throne rusts and caviar spoils if you neglect to , lol
mircea_popescu: "i can't go talk to girls until i get a good job and have a house and another girl whose place they'd take and children and i am dead and buried already"
asciilifeform: [ insert 'a: i have no megabux, can only live where there is guaranteed work' m:'fu, have better parents, eat nagant' thread here ]
a111: Logged on 2018-09-01 12:17 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-01#1846495 << sadly i checked my postbox, still no invitation, lol
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: Sent 1 hour and 51 minutes ago: <Mocky> yes, I'd take one of your hoes no question
jurov: Till I set up everything, static mirror of btc-dev mailing list will be here: http://161.0.121.248/ml/btc-dev/ ☟︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-01#1846495 << sadly i checked my postbox, still no invitation, lol ☝︎☟︎
jurov: And yes, it's reverse cache problem. The move is in progress but this week i was mostly afk, will continue on it first thing today.
asciilifeform: i wouldn't refuse iran
mod6: we'll have to see what jurov says, but yeah, I think it's an isp related issue.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> i confess that i actually am fond of the ancient ml format. no stylesheets, no buttons, just 80col text. << i've grown pretty fond of it too.
mircea_popescu: ah, figures further mucked up by a manually deleted mocky comment, i recall.
mircea_popescu: well... at LEAST 62k, there's some classes of rejects i can't count.
mircea_popescu: looks like i clicked "spam" 11 times this month.
asciilifeform: having not yet read mpwp, i cannot say further
mircea_popescu: i doubt it.
asciilifeform: i like the idea of eternal 0effort spam genocide tho.
asciilifeform: this is where i left it
mircea_popescu: i'm also not sure if i want to make you use signer every time you leave a ocmment.
mircea_popescu: yes but i use png SOMETIMES (neat coplors, like screen captures, jpg fucks up)
mircea_popescu: trilema would have to waste >10GB of disk if i switched to png
mircea_popescu: i use jpg all the time, for excellent reasons.
mircea_popescu: the problem is though... things like pics. wtf i'd do about those ?
asciilifeform: i tried to write one of these
mircea_popescu is thinking about it, could have muchly simplified mpwp, whereby if i sign it it's an article, if you sign it it's a comment, you can even have a golden border
hanbot: mircea_popescu i'd be happy to try, though i doubt i could deliver in the rightnao sorta timeframe lack of ml suggests.
asciilifeform: i stole whole idea, when pushing jurov to do it, from mpex, lol
mircea_popescu: yeah, i'm not sure why i'd want automated sig verification in this context.
asciilifeform: i dun know of a rcf2440 eater & rsatron in php, tho certainly could be made
asciilifeform: whole reason i ended up baking the www end in py
asciilifeform: ( phuctor is only exception i know of , but not general purpose )
asciilifeform: ( if i'm mistaken , jurov , plox to correct )
mircea_popescu: which is why i never mentioned b4.
asciilifeform: ( recall, i was never able to use the email knob on jurov's box reliably at all, but instead use www intake hopper )
asciilifeform: i confess that i actually am fond of the ancient ml format. no stylesheets, no buttons, just 80col text.
mircea_popescu: mod6 could it be maybe time to repatriate mailing list into mpwp format ? i mean, is there any advantage to sticking to email process ?
asciilifeform: ( tho i expect that if i ever do, it will more than pay back for the lack of any to date, and take the form of cork-lined cellar )
mod6: Lords and Ladies of The Most Serene Republic, I have placed the signed STATE OF BITCOIN ADDRESS on my site, if you wish to read: http://www.mod6.net/2018/September/1/btcf_address_201808.txt
mod6: mircea_popescu does have a point re 'freedom of navigation' tho. but ya, if it doesn't matter to BingoBoingo, I'm game. ☟︎
mod6: we should ask him, I'm under the impression that doing stable wires to his bank actually shows "stability" and helps with his residency or whatever.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-23 21:45 mircea_popescu: mod6 i'm sorry, but ima have to refund you. whole exercise turned into a massive pile of idiocy. im closing an entire bank out of the loop over their idiotic misbehaviour ; we'll have to try this again later on.
mod6: ah, i see, so for instance trinque could say, "selling 4000 USD for ECU", exactly like yourself with the last one ☟︎
mod6: I guess, either that, or we just wait until lobbes is ready.
mod6: lol. I'd rather not do it that way. I'd love to use the bot, but sometimes gotta do things by hand when we don't have the tools.
mod6: i'm just saying, doing it 'botless'. like I say, "this auction is open for 72 hours, closes on X date at X time. Selling 1 BTC for USD. Winner of auction sends whatever wires seller specifies." ☟︎
lobbes: and now I can get ass back in year on auctionbot
lobbes: however I ended up purging the znc user and all traces from the thing. Coming live now from irssi from pizarro shared hosting (used danielpbarron's spiffy guide >> http://danielpbarron.com/2018/irssi-on-pizarro-shared-hosting/)
lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-31#1846157 << muchas gracias. I can confirm I can ssh in; www is back up ☝︎
mod6: as soon as I have one, I'll be sending out the invoices immediately.
mod6: right now I'm working on buying some dollars and wires in place. but I don't have a price point yet.
mod6: trinque: yeah, not sure how that'd work. i'd like to see more price points. but if we can't receive dollars bought, then I dunno.
mircea_popescu: trinque i think you have to do it ; reverse auction still not there.
BingoBoingo: lol, I just can't believe this chicken I've never met cheated my out of the good stuff
BingoBoingo: So I'm putting together my healthy 4 egg veggie scramble, and one of the eggs didn't have a yolk
BingoBoingo: And I just got jewed by a chicken
asciilifeform: ( i can picture a near future when hv line rights of way are mined, say )
mircea_popescu: that's what i was going to say, you don't have to get THAT close. if air is no longer dielectric you're too close.
mircea_popescu: i suspect those are .5MV
asciilifeform: i'd avoid ^ these , cable with multi-kV insulation aint cheap
asciilifeform: how to do : it charges cap ( the demo unit i have here from china, has 4 1F 2.2v caps ) and runs a boost converter from these, as well as lighting up 'power good' pin when 3.3v (from the latter) is available. so you put a test load on the 3.3v out ( say , 1W 100 ohm resistor ) and record events when 'power good' signal changes.
mircea_popescu: in field use ; for research, something that records voltages i guess
mircea_popescu: i expect ya
mircea_popescu: well yeah ; it doesn't include hwatever sbin setting you were discussing though. i guess leave as a comment.
mircea_popescu: right. i had no idea they even route.
mircea_popescu: me either. just, not what i remembered.
asciilifeform: i see no particular reason to care
asciilifeform: i.e. nil
mircea_popescu: i thought ports that high weren't forwarded.
asciilifeform: i.e. cannot connect from outside
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-08-31 04:22 hanbot: i've got znc running on UY1:50321, ftr.
mircea_popescu: i suppose putting together a standard ircing recipe can't hurt anything
mod6: In your blog, you point out that you are using xchat. For me, since I use irssi (this might be helpful to others on the shared-environemt), it could be started up in a screen session, and simply ssh in attach your screen (or tmux?) to irc.
mod6: Hi, I've always stayed clear of znc, so have never used it myself. Let me take a look at what asciilifeform said above.
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-08-30 00:31 hanbot: q for the management --can i set up znc on UY3?
diana_coman: mod6, as pizarro customer on a year-long contract I can confirm I do *not want* anything to be done; one upside of going longterm is precisely that it's set for some time and it doesn't require any additional ongoing attention essentially
mod6: I think I just needed some setting straight. I appreciate that.
mircea_popescu: as i'm 100% certain i'd have rejected a bill with the heading "see mp, it's more expensive nao than when we shook hands", i'm correspondingly 100% certain i don't care what happened. cuz that's why i'd have rejected it, "i don't care what happened".
mod6: Well with that, I'm glad I brought this up in here. The guidence is going to be: Pizarro won't do anything at this time for existing contracts. Upon renewal, you'll pay the posted price.
trinque: speaking for myself, I'm gonna be way crankier if I've got 0.3BTC of hardware down there that's suddenly homeless
mod6: Fair point, I just didn't want to judge if how much someones money is worth to them outright.
mircea_popescu: it seriously can not be worth your time, this. i mean we're talking 0.001 or something ? 'cmon.
mod6: I can see that too, Sir. I just wanna make sure we're doing the Right Thing (tm).
mod6: I agree, it makes everything a nightmare really.
mircea_popescu: mod6 i really wouldn't bother ; prices can fluctuate, it's the nature of the beast, what are youi going to do, liquify all contracts and keep track of back and forth movements ? it's insanity.
mod6: Initially, I thought this was the right approach. But also could see that maybe, this wasn't square enough for longer dated contracts. However, this sets a bad precedent of reprincing active contracts if pricing or circumstances change.
mod6: There are five (I previously thought there were four) accounts that have longer dated contracts, people who have signed up for a full year, or multiple months. We want to compensate those accounts for a mis-pricing posted since May 29th. The idea was to credit them 0.001 BTC/mo for June, July, and August.
asciilifeform: i set up a znc box in '16, has been working since ~continuously ( moved 1ce, disk burned out 1nce )
mircea_popescu: i expect, yes. 99% of the function is basically an irc proxy ; i expect 99% of the code is other dumb shit
