asciilifeform: mod6: the chinese make 3color thing, but it has poorer contrast than the classical one
asciilifeform: ( hell, i'd live with 'vi' myself if that were the only cost.. )
asciilifeform: and i expect the 'vi' users even moar so.
asciilifeform: Mocky: depends who 'we'. e.g. mine, work ok with partial refreshing.
asciilifeform: imho 'ideal' epaper gadget would simply have serial port and emulate vt100, and then could fit to anyffing at all.
asciilifeform: Mocky: the linked part was claimed to fit 'rpi header' (i.e. the 40pin thing on various arm boards, incl. our rk3328) with 0 solder or fancy interfacing. but apparently nodice.
asciilifeform: the panels also have a common cathode thing for clear-all-accumulated-rubbish
asciilifeform: ( luckily -- perhaps -- there's plenty to do on surface )
asciilifeform: but to summarize subthread -- asciilifeform gets 1 day / wk, and that's on a ~good~ wk, to run the deep drills. the rest of the time, stuck on surface.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ideas come ~24/7. i was speaking of unrolling-into-concretes
asciilifeform: nicoleci: you have unclosed links in yer page, last 2 items
asciilifeform: i.e. saturday, 'loading', sunday -- doing, then 5d of microshit, then new saturday, 'load' again...
asciilifeform: the repeated 'loading' costs quite a bit of time.
asciilifeform: i cannot speak for e.g. trinque , phf, mod6 , but would not be surprised if same is the case there.
asciilifeform: the sad troof is that ~all of asciilifeform's 'deep' worx (i.e. the ones that require loading a whole proggy / algo 'into head' ) happen on vacations & weekends (when the latter not filled with saecular crapola) rather than nights
asciilifeform: but i dun expect to have this 'problem' any time soon
asciilifeform: i do wonder sometimes how i'd organize day if i actually had whole day to tmsr
asciilifeform: ( or rather, is incompatible with 'no se fia' )
asciilifeform: the 'push' model of block propagation, is simply wrong.
asciilifeform: meanwhile in the trb observatory, http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/cMfST/?raw=true << restarted zoolag, and confirms my earlier hypothesis -- 'bastards' from friendlies are simply when they throw their latest block blindly at each peer, without concern for who actually can eat it, and who cannot. shitoshi's shit protocol.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-01#1856553 << lol, seems to me that we regularly argue opposite sides of this puzzler. but yes, i'd luvv for there to be somewhere a hidden reserve of sane folx who will join republic and do quality work. but somehow they aint here yet, and i'm inclined to agree with mircea_popescu's much earlier hypothesis, where they either dun exist or are buried beneath such thick pantsuit iceberg that no drill pres☝︎
asciilifeform: Mocky et al: i'ma restart with timestamps, and from here on.
asciilifeform: it's the historic norm in sane undertakings, yes
asciilifeform: but i read orig mircea_popescu observation as opposing very notion of collated log.
asciilifeform: and yes the existing item is bug-ridden.
asciilifeform: i.e. item that collates desired flows.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aint that whole idea of 'system log' to begin with ?
asciilifeform: tape printer is a constrained device, if you let >1 proggy operate it at same time, it will output garbage ( lines inside other lines etc )
asciilifeform: ( observe that civilized house has both main breaker ~and~ subs )
