billymg: speaking of, BingoBoingo, asciilifeform, it sounded like there was an option for some interim shared hosting. i would be interested in that if available. then when i'm on the ground i will look around for a local DC
billymg: i took some photos on this trip as well, plan to do a post about the experience (once i get my blog back up)
billymg: the previous owners ran it as a bnb, have some existing relationships that carry over as well (outside any platform sites)
billymg: some existing cows that belong to the groundskeeper, a native tico who's been on the property for even longer than the previous owner
BingoBoingo: Is it a working ranch with livestock or gotta bring your own?
billymg: thanks, it was quite a process, but glad now that it's done
BingoBoingo: Apparently telegrams are a thing here, and sending one is the next step.
asciilifeform: a++
mp_en_viaje: waste is universally a bad idea.
mp_en_viaje: or, to quote the lulziest group in all england, "When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. And that one sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, and then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that’s what you’re going to get, Son, the strongest cas
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-21 12:17:01 trinque: mp_en_viaje: bumped the max upload to 40M for ya. on the other two points, I said I'd do these, but I'm also being plain about my intent to run castle trinque as a net-positive entity. I'll figure that part out myself.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-21#1947300 << so set a date this week, and send your liason at the police preceinct news that they contacted you and thanks.
BingoBoingo: The skilled work of presenting facts in a way judges are capable of digesting.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It's headline news about a property of email protocols.
asciilifeform: a.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: since you have a printer, may be worth sending same to their snail addr. notarized.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I replied that I will set up a retrieval appointment at a later date when the chance of rain is low to non-existent, and that the noc@ email address they want me to coordinate through rejects my messages as spam. I attached the rejection email as a .txt with full headers.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-21 06:15:43 mp_en_viaje: meaning that i'll be confronted with a very http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-08-02#1926167 situation in six months' time, something that's evident to ~anyone paying any attention at all, and so liable to eschew mention.
BingoBoingo: trinque: Deedbot's a lisp thing right? I suspect spyked may be a capable pair of hands for the task if he is available.
trinque: torching 4-5k here and there for honor is a great way for a man who just stepped into capital to promptly step back out.
trinque: mp_en_viaje: bumped the max upload to 40M for ya. on the other two points, I said I'd do these, but I'm also being plain about my intent to run castle trinque as a net-positive entity. I'll figure that part out myself.
mp_en_viaje: the belief that individuals are entirely devoid of value or importance, mere interchangeable pieces "for a greater goal", ie nude and rude fascist socialism, is all over ircd.
mp_en_viaje: the experience of travel certainly informs how a better ircd would work, i can say that much.
mp_en_viaje: aite, that's checked and a-ok.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-18 17:20:58 mp_en_viaje: i have been keeping a (quite public, at that) log of a wide reaching "where is it not raining" research project. expensive enough, too, i've been burning 4 figures/day, every day, since ~april. not that the point is how to make it cheapest or anything
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-18 10:25:23 diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: should I set her up with a ftp account on logs.ossasepia.com?
mp_en_viaje: finally, the third, which is the small matter, is that currently attempting to paste things back and forth is being disrupted by arbitrary nonsense. i'd very much like (not so much for myself, heh, but for the glory and heathen-perceived might of this our here republic) to be able to get strip club footage via a transparently logged process showcasing the great practical
mp_en_viaje: i'm mentioning it specifically because hey, why not, but normally wouldn't have, again on the expectation that "his lordship" is not hollow pretense, but actual and factual description. this is what it describes : a man who needn't be told the obvious. naught else, it's all it is.
mp_en_viaje: meaning that i'll be confronted with a very http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-08-02#1926167 situation in six months' time, something that's evident to ~anyone paying any attention at all, and so liable to eschew mention.
mp_en_viaje: the second, which is the hanging matter, is that i meanwhile specced a new functioning of ratings and voicing, the to-spec execution of which being the very bedrock upon which deedbot payments even work. come april or whatever, i'm not about to do the old style lordship ratings,
mp_en_viaje: whether you manage to produce five billion pounds of silver by running county devon or five hundred pounds of debt is a reflection on you, not on the county devon. how great a lord you are entirely rests on what great things you can accomplish on how little in granted priviledges -- and this for the very simple and utterly unmissable reason that another lord Devon there will be ; but another county Devon never, and therefore
mp_en_viaje: there's an important difference here : that deedbot is the payment processor of record is a ~priviledge~ i grant you, precisely in the manner and of the nature of my saying you now own county devon.
ossabot: Logged on 2017-04-07 14:24:31 mircea_popescu: no, let's also de-equivocate think. there's two kinds of think, one's a forge/reflow/examination of trees resulting in analytical consumption of inputs with actionable outputs guaranteed ; the other is a neurotic behaviour perhaps best described as spinning, whereby specific emotional triggers / detriggers are visited in succession. the prussian model was never concerned with the former in any sense, but merely
mp_en_viaje: not angstily and spinningly like a spinstress, thus therefore progressing daily towards a goal, rather than wasting time "being worried" or whatever the hell.
mp_en_viaje: this'll require managing small payments on an hourly rather than day+ timeframe. it was specced back in 2017 or some shit, and i deliberately did not push the issue on the expectation and implication that you're sitting there responsibly and effectually, like a lord,
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-21#1947260 << alright. to catch back here, after a lengthy interval of low thoroughput resulting obviously in some desyncing : to my mind there's three items outstanding.
trinque: this will take at least a few weeks
trinque: I'm willing to do that because mp_en_viaje is cool, even though I don't think otherwise said item will have enough throughput for a % to be worthwhile
feedbot: http://trilema.com/2019/in-a-dead-end-world-in-an-erthetetlen-town-west-end-girls/ << Trilema -- In a dead-end world, in an rthetetlen town... West End Girls.
BingoBoingo hasn't seen Thai language spam in quite a while
asciilifeform: diana_coman: that thing is on insulator pedestal, under it is a 3mm steel sliding plinth. the temp in the dc is a comfortable ~20C when i last measured. (surprisingly, very quiet vs latech's, they have civilized freon cooling, entire back lot fulla chiller towers. and, interestingly, coupla thou. litres of genuine pre-ban halon 1301 for fire suppression.)
asciilifeform: on a good day i got ~2MB/s from dulap. (peak).
asciilifeform: diana_coman: didja ever make a note of what sorta throughput same item had at piz ?
asciilifeform: diana_coman: before you go back to these -- is there a large file i can wget-test with from here , in ossasepia ? i'm curious re whether oceanic pipe is limit, or the speed of the rk ssd
diana_coman: sure + at any rate, it belongs published, why not; ftr gathering all links and everything after this time ate up quite a few hours, ugh.
mp_en_viaje: as hanbot_abroad aptly put it, "these people belong with a snaggletooth and a viking helmet, holding an axe, wtf are they doing pretending to like, euro dress and shit, it's the joke of all time"
asciilifeform: unrelated q for iptronix gurus : wai does traceroute to diana_coman's www , show a long-dead rubbish domain on last hop ? ( netsideproductions.com ) ? is this config issue somewhere ? (afaik harmless, but i'd like to know why it happens)
mp_en_viaje: but i mean, it's a crop. it's flexible.
mp_en_viaje: only reason i finally broke down and got a tripod was that it was cheap, and i already have a pile of car platform machinery, so what's it hurt.
mp_en_viaje: before had actually half-weight, 70% volume even tinier thing. fit in a trained asshole.
mp_en_viaje: another nice thing is that ye olde rx was really 16:9 ; now we're back to 4:3, which imo a gain.
mp_en_viaje: i am using atm a 1024px format which is autoscaled for 560 wide inline ; but i suspect people like to be able to click the inlines for 4x size
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i usually put out 640x480, lolyes. but find it useful to have from what to cut, hence moar pixels aint necessarily imho a waste.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: a++ camera btw. imho considerably + vs prev.
mp_en_viaje: what a great relaxing day, i'm fucking exhausted.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 1 other find : the dc has, apparently , a scrap/graveyard. which consists mostly of... working irons. and apparently they've no ready buyers for it, nor stoop to using by own self. i'ma discuss it at the next meat session.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I got interest but not commitment. Your visit and the alien qualities that made hardware desirable or useless to us got some interest. In retrospect it seems to have never escaped the chitchat loop which is a stong insulating force among the locals.
BingoBoingo: trinque: This is understandable, and seems a very meausured application of WoT. My outgoing ratings are probably overdue for another read and revision soon.
trinque: I am however going forward with a strict interpretation of my ratings as my routing table, and fella doesn't want to engage himself in the republic. I'm just reflecting that fact.
BingoBoingo did read, reread, cut, and reread dispatch to derps before sending. At this point though it seems everything to be said has been said. Maximum pressure to derps, a case where the initiative is already in hand to the lawyer folk.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i ended up using the lift as a lappy table, and instead gurl as extra hands, worked 9000x better than 'alone + lift'
BingoBoingo: Well, kind why I want a timeline. Even if you put its operation X months out, I want to see it in the plan.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: so far asciilifeform is a certified f-grade dunce at 'expand wot', repeatedly sent back to kindergarten. still it gotta be expanded.

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I want you to get most of the shared hosting gravy and I propose the incentives bring your superior tech talents to target gathering the gravy. Whether you go to a full cabinet quickly or not, I would like to see you explore getting the 1 G pipe sooner rather than later if the current intro pipe performs.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-19 12:33:34 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: you could actually get 100% of the shared hosting revenues -- in exch for colo rate for the req'd machine, if you like. ( asciilifeform still baking the entire thing, as specced by mp_en_viaje , doing a 'measure 7 time, cut 1nce' but no one will be invoiced for anyffin until passes criticism. )

BingoBoingo: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-20#1947043 << She is amenable to having her life uprooted. The next few days/weeks are going to determine how I feel about Uruguay in the mid term, which is less important than whether or not a datacenter is found that bites on my pitch for a technician gig.
BingoBoingo: Police station even had a random old man civilian chilling in the lobby 1950's style. Story is he's someone's dad, but the chitchat really helped the couple minutes of wait pass while someone of sufficient rank to take a report was found.
BingoBoingo: I will say yesterday the phrase "man of the future" was bouncing around in my head quite a bit.
BingoBoingo should also be picking up business cards Monday. The variants with and without phone number both include a GPG keyid line.
mp_en_viaje: it works because it's the correct thing to do from the subjective perspective ; and that always betrays a certain thing to the observer.
mp_en_viaje: oh, and to spell out that other thing : re http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-20#1947023 your principal gain is that when you go to sit down with laywers later, and you tell them what happened and what you did so far, on that basis your odds of being taken for a rube drop from the usual 80% ot well under 1%
mp_en_viaje: that's the budget available ; balance that out with whatever it's costing you, and there you go. women do it because, generally, it costs them a negative. you do it when your subjectively expected lifetime value comes under a quadrillionth of two cents.
mp_en_viaje: that's the average value of fatherhood, in the grand scheme of things : the kWh retails for a coupla cents, meaning your contribution's roughly whatever you get once you're done dividing two cents to seventeen zeroes.
mp_en_viaje: the average energy of such a proton is well measured, they peak around 0.3 GeV, which is to say ~5e−11 J, or in more everyday terms 0.0000000000000000139 kWh.
mp_en_viaje: to put it in the plainest terms : your deciding to be a father, and a proton's hitting earth are very comparable in terms of productivity. they'll do about as much, one as the other, just like "deciding" to be a beautician and "choosing" a career in waitressing will result in very comparable yearly tax returns.

mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-20#1947027 << you see the things you learn, once you start working the street ? getting out of the house's a winning move, for srs.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-19 21:52:09 BingoBoingo: Aite, I picked up a cheap (US like price) printer as the hours for the hire a printer shops have passed. Doing another round of proofreading and sanity checking, then printing, then off to the prefectura.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-19 21:58:46 BingoBoingo: Shoebox size HP laser thing. 125 with a ream of paper. I hoped to never need to own a printer again, but I also don't want to lose the legal race for being too cheap to get a damned printer.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-19#1947022 << man, i've not owned a printer in YEARS. it's so fucking great! almost as good as being rid of email.
mp_en_viaje: but, suffice it to say there's a very good reason i picked nicole up naked at the airport in a country she never heard of before, and that reason ain't my jollies. not that it hurts the jollying any, but i'm way too modest and wary of vainglory to make my enjoyment the center of policy.
mp_en_viaje: following the logic, if what you're trying to do is build something, a mommy's about as useful to you as a dude. think it through, you can fuck the dude in the ass just as well as her -- better, allegedly, though i've never tried the fags do claim once you go boybutt you don't go back. and just as allegedly it's a lot more fun to suck dick than clit -- which incidentally i can well see, theoretically, there's more to it if nothi

mp_en_viaje: it;s like hiring a plastic surgeon to fill up your tits and promise to pay him a % of all the money you realise sucking cock thenceforth. no prostitute, however slow, is dumb enough for that deal, it takes a male to do something quite as dumb.

mp_en_viaje: he just wants everyhing to be well, which, other than not ever working in practice is a great idea in theory.

BingoBoingo: mod6: I'd like to get a plan of action up soon with a timeline. As a Roman law country this is a much clearer case than it would be in US court. I do however want estimates from the vampires I am assembling before doing anything definitive.

mod6: Or at least subtract it from the cash total we're sitting upon. Then we'll also have a better idea of what we're working with in case this thing goes to #2.
BingoBoingo: This is so because Maximiliano, the sale manager who Latecho has handling communications with me is a walking disaster for them.
