asciilifeform: there's 2 vacant rk boxes btw
phf: gut the x60 chassis, put rk in there, though you're still stuck with the screen
asciilifeform: phf: i drained the battery in ~2h on airplane (putting finishing touches on rk gentoo), then again in the rack (1st usa->orc mains plug brick fell apart) then again on roof...
asciilifeform: it was in fact supposed to go in the 1st , but ended up sadly left behind , rk plant ranked higher , and mass -- limited
lobbesbot: diana_coman: Sent 5 hours and 56 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> your rk is redisked! and running; you may want to stand up yer www server (iirc it doesn't run on boot)
asciilifeform: oh btw, lobbes & diana_coman , dun forget to set your rk's clocks.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-02 17:34 asciilifeform: lobbes: plox to confirm when satisfied that your rk worx correctly
lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-02#1857370 << I can confirm rk is working. ty! ☝︎
asciilifeform: !Q later tell diana_coman your rk is redisked! and running; you may want to stand up yer www server (iirc it doesn't run on boot)
asciilifeform: lobbes: plox to confirm when satisfied that your rk worx correctly ☟︎
asciilifeform: rk units A & C are ready forbiznis.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-01#1856831 << this is a very solid point. add to it that cuntoo won't support gnome, and suddenly you see it : rk draws 15miliAmps, screen draws an average of i dunno, .6. suddenly a 5kAh battery lasts... 5k hours. ☝︎
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: drive for RK-A currently being written
asciilifeform: rk, in case anyone forgot, has 1 usb3 and usb2 holes.
mircea_popescu: "herro sir your package very much ready at rk haus in senegal!"
asciilifeform: because gotta get spare disks to rk plant soon.
asciilifeform: rk plant currently has 0 spare parts !!
mircea_popescu: mind giving it a seeing to ? it'll be a very useful heuristic, imo, "get rk drivers on 2.6 kernel"
mircea_popescu: i don't want losing rk, wut.
mircea_popescu: why would you have to lose rk ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but i'm not particularly excited by idea of losing rk
asciilifeform: i wouldn't even object to cementing a 3.x, supposing i had a working one for rk
asciilifeform: 4.9.76 on dulap, and slightly earlier iirc in rk branch ( will have to maintain at least these 2 forks , i suspect )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there's some % who actually endrivered various new iron. e.g. dulap kernel built for arm64 won't actually boot on rk, needs the little bit of chinesium ( i have it laid out, fwiw , mostly, specifically for when we pour cement )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: e.g. the chinese rk people
asciilifeform: ( i still have boxen with the old gnat, except for rk, where only ave1's gnat exists )
deedbot: Invoiced mod6 0.04570496 << 8 new-gen rk disks + 20 adhesive-backed hedgehogs + s&h
asciilifeform: !!invoice mod6 0.04570496 8 new-gen rk disks + 20 adhesive-backed hedgehogs + s&h
mod6: tested my fg on my rk, looks good
mircea_popescu: seems like an eminent use for rk plants, make a bunch of blog servlets. considering writes are rare and priviledged, perfect application.
asciilifeform: re sd card -- mircea_popescu may find it interesting that asciilifeform's initial (week before flight) rk test bed used a premium 'camera' 128G sd to boot ~and~ run from. but found that it is intolerably slow, the things have pretty sad randomaccess performance
mircea_popescu: what sense does that make, not like rk is high traffic. as compared to say a photocam
asciilifeform: recently i was going through by hand in list of what's in my rk gentoo, and holyfuq, 'root cert of greek gov' etc. disgraceful.
asciilifeform: ditto the rk
asciilifeform: plant per se imho ok, i've yet to see a thermal sad on a rk cpu
asciilifeform: mod6: plox to credit diana_coman with phree day of rk service, and yerself -- 8d
asciilifeform: ( using vacant rk )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: plz give ( or not ) permission to modify your rk filesystem to enable uart console ( /etc/inittab )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: can you ssh to your rk nao ?
asciilifeform: http://nosuchlabs.com/pub/rk_e_sads.txt
lobbesbot: diana_coman: Sent just now: <asciilifeform> didja rebuild your rk kernel with no xhci ( usb3 ) ?
asciilifeform: !Q later tell diana_coman didja rebuild your rk kernel with no xhci ( usb3 ) ?
asciilifeform: the rk's are on own physical switch, so if one of them pulls the lan to ground, it will take out only rk cluster. but that's the only isolation available.
mircea_popescu: let me get this straight : if me and you have a rk, and you run your blog from there, and i overload your ip but only use port x which you do not use a) you'll never know and b) i have two ips now.
mircea_popescu: and of course this stands for whole space ? one could eg make foundation box inaccessible by renting rk ?
asciilifeform: on the most recent occasion when i re-imaged rk ( actually 2 of'em ) i tested all 6.
asciilifeform: the biggest headache is to get to where ~something~ gets shat forth from the rk uart.
asciilifeform: mod6: i tested you rk drive blockwise: it has no physical defects
lobbes: also, congrats on joining teh mp-wp-rk club
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for rk , separate, and recently updated ( pending publication )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: fwiw it comes by default with all asciilifeform-prepared boxen nao, incl. all new rk customer.
asciilifeform: lobbes: rk has no battery in rtc, you gotta set its clock on boot, yes
asciilifeform: mod6: znc (or whatever else) on rk box is between user and his gods
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: plox cure lobbes's rk . but in the future, this will prolly have to cost something, as it uses hands.
asciilifeform: rk 'A' ready for new tenant.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-19#1842911 << BingoBoingo plox to do as we did with prev rk, put the disk in dulap and ping asciilifeform when did. ☝︎
asciilifeform doesn't anticipate making any further changes to the pizarro rk kernel, at least while we use same iron
asciilifeform: mod6: it's simply the launch codes for rk 'C' ( previously occupied by mats ) , it is ready for new user.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: new rk kernel baked, tested, worx. << nice! thanks for baking.
asciilifeform: mod6: new rk kernel baked, tested, worx.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-08 16:58 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'ma test new kernel today, then tomorrow will ask BingoBoingo to power down rk-c and put disk in dulap to i can snap new master img, then it will go into service ( and can reimage BingoBoingo also ) .

lobbesbot: BingoBoingo: Sent 41 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> plox to move the usb drive into RK 'C' and power up, but ping me when setting out to dc, i want to test it before you go back
asciilifeform: !Q later tell BingoBoingo plox to move the usb drive into RK 'C' and power up, but ping me when setting out to dc, i want to test it before you go back
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-04#1839243 << attempting one as we speak ( if no dice, will reflash the vacant rk with classical img ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: diana_coman: problem dun seem to exist on my desk rockchip. ( and in the end we'll move the rk FGs over to the convenient built-in TTL serialports )
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 15:09 asciilifeform: then , BingoBoingo : plox to power down rk 'A' and insert its stick into dulap , for reimaging, when subscr expires

asciilifeform: imho main weakness of my rk boards is lack of sata
ave1: the libre computer board is in the pizarro rk? it seems to be 80$ for 4G. This is the same price, for the rockpro64.
asciilifeform: ave1: this is a kind of 'plus' version of the pizarro rk, yes
asciilifeform: given as rk has no idea which dram a given board maker will want to use, they made the timings settable
asciilifeform: and rk chipset is , by itself, surprisingly friendly.
asciilifeform: not rk
mircea_popescu: in the rk ?
phf: afaiu the special baud rate is rk exclusive
asciilifeform: full src is in all of the rk boxen.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'rockchip' rk series. asciilifeform ported trb to these in 2015.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-21#1546310 << rk is a very special d00d, used to write me letters of 100+kB nearly-incomprehensible ???. lives in canada, on an insanity pension, in some garret. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: rk through this situation."

mircea_popescu: rk that he disapproves of that kind of conduct–on the contrary, there is a definite strain of sadism in him, over and above the brutality which a writer of that type has to have. Kipling is a jingo imperialist, he is morally insensitive and aesthetically disgusting. It is better to start by admitting that, and then to try to find out why it is that he survives while the refined people who have sniggered at him seem t
