mircea_popescu: yes, but i mean... can you do anything useful ?
mircea_popescu: but... i still don't know much.
dw: i pointed Disavowed here, found your site via lobsters about a week ago :)
mircea_popescu: "i dun care how tall" is a recipe for disaster down the road.
mod6: i gotta creat a new one, gimp is limited, or im a bit limited in is usage. i'll make 320 x 132 if that's suitable.
mod6: You want me to make one that size, I think I can make a special one. Lemme tinker on it here.
asciilifeform: currently i'd prefer horiz
mod6: asciilifeform: hm? images i created are, 446px × 63px
mod6: I have some more that I just threw up on my site; a few to pick from: http://www.mod6.net/pizarro_banners/
asciilifeform: i was about to link to this yea
mircea_popescu: go right ahead, i dun see the problem.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825058 << mod6 ben_vulpes work out a handshake with mircea_popescu so that i can put this on phuctor www ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 21:14 ben_vulpes: i had some suspicious activity in the alley around my trash last week, where's my blockchain analysis support
asciilifeform: i've not personally captained anyffing bigger than rowboat, lol
asciilifeform: i'd like to upgrade to the sailboat.
mircea_popescu: really, there's a lot of similarity between the job of the CFO (which... i gues... is what i'm doing here ?) for a company and the job of a captain of a fore-and-aft rigged vessel.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aah i think i get it. 'iron is the master of them all'(tm)(r)
asciilifeform: i haven't any idea is it's a local min or the beginning of a slide back into 2015 or whichever way, my voodoo is weak
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i am similarly poorly equipped to speculate/trade, but now at recent lows strikes me as a bad time to convert btc to cash (unless it goes lower, ofc)
asciilifeform: ( i.e. in the sense where its movements cannot do any serious good, only damage ? then yes )
asciilifeform: that was what i meant in re 'the only part that feels the btc exch rate'
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i did say 'next parcel somebody other than asciilifeform ' , recall
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 17:18 ben_vulpes: i intend to do this for the july bills.
mircea_popescu: but i mean, as far as anyone presently knows, 100% of all bitcoin trade consists of http://logs.minigame.biz/search/?q=total+bids
asciilifeform: from asciilifeform's perch, 'valuations' are voodoo , i have nfi either way
mircea_popescu: i like how they say "the new", as if it's somehow a workable substitute for "the stupid"
ben_vulpes: i had some suspicious activity in the alley around my trash last week, where's my blockchain analysis support ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-05-24 16:13 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1818018 << i'm quite certain that they will have a show trial or two for 'putin's wreckers' who 'manipulated the price upward'
lobbes: mircea_popescu: deal! I'll let you know if I find anyone of interest.
mircea_popescu: i remember one time hanbot went through "crypto credit cards"
asciilifeform: re tpmism : i predict many great lulz of the fyootoor , when google et al roll 'bitcoin' support into cr50 etc
ben_vulpes: i'll survey the 'crypto'/cpa space and report back
mircea_popescu: possible. in other similar lulz, juicy ads (whom, incidentally, i remember from the days the dood starting it was a junior/nobody with a "new project!!", 15+ years ago) refuses to deal with crypto because "we are respectable company".
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 20:29 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825006 << i'll certainly be very interested of hearing a yes/no to this, secretly even, because so far i've not been getting anywhere (as per http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-12#1824240 etc ). curious if perhaps im doing something wrong.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825076 << as far as i can tell, their Official policy is to never admit that the thing even exists ( aside from the src, which is gnarly enuff , i suppose , to 'not count' somehow ) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i was talking of the argentards.
mircea_popescu: lobbes, alternatively, if you find actually interesting banner selling ppl i'll both pay you for the effort and buy their banners to help take some load off zee pizarro. you have almost enough here to start your own "digital media" agency, just need to hire some worthless ditzen now and is all set!
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825019 << i'm pretty sure that's the point, they can't afford pot but gotta be as spacey as proper californians to not burn down the entire fucking country. and so... ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-12 21:04 mircea_popescu: also, i can say it is extremely unlikely your preliminary "thousands" figure is correct.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 17:44 phf: asciilifeform: i suspect chromeos partner console is on a need to have basis. if it's just oem partners, then i'm out of luck, but if there's some flexibility there, then yes, there are official channels
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825006 << i'll certainly be very interested of hearing a yes/no to this, secretly even, because so far i've not been getting anywhere (as per http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-12#1824240 etc ). curious if perhaps im doing something wrong. ☝︎☝︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 16:56 phf: asciilifeform: i think you _might've_ misunderstood the thread. the point seem to have been not so much that the whole attempt is pointless, but it's the framing that was questionable. if you make a couple of snakes and send them at own expense to interested l1/l2, i don't see how it won't be worthwhile. we just don't have any idle reversers, who want to take a stab at it for the lulz, available at the moment.
mod6: I was thinking that if L1/L2 people around here want to emplace a banner on their blog to help drive some traffic to PizzaroISP.net and earn some btc, let us know. ☟︎
lobbes: Nifty mod6. Likewise, I'll add 'banner ad space for sale' to my radar as I continue to filter the ocean
mod6: I want to get more advertising for Pizarro going, and I thought I would just drop this in here so other republicans are aware if they wanna help pitch in on the banner effort.
mircea_popescu: but you can also directly see how it's now a case of "oh, i didn't shake hands with mp RETROACTIVELY because I SAY SO" and all the rest of the http://trilema.com/2018/the-problem-with-christians/ bullshit just from there.
mircea_popescu: trinque, hey, i'm specifically not even asking you to. fuck them, let them learn to live in the world before asking the world to change to accomodate.
mod6: I just created one, and I encourage all involved to throw their hat in the ring. Typical sizing I have found for these are: 446px x 63px
trinque: it's fair; I can be slightly more tolerant of noobery
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 15:42 mircea_popescu: it's gonna be such an open season of old woman head on pike soon enough. "but what did i do ?!" "you were someone's mom in the 90s/00s weren;'t you ?" "yes i was!" "fuck you, bitch."
mircea_popescu: that said : i don't specifically care either way, but now explicitly.
mircea_popescu: out my factual and utterly obvious shortcoming], i'm doing you a favour, tough breaks for you that '''the server''' was out of date [which totally isn't my failure, inasmuch as it was my server, that's why i keep it around, to randomly dissociate when things happen]' without skipping a beat. it's therefore reasonable to expect similar breaks from reality to be triggered in similar circumstances. inasmuch as the setting broken
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 02:09 trinque: I dun recall kicking, or even telling the guy to leave.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1824856 << to be plain, the argument is "hey, you just watched this dood produce broken reasoning in the vein of replacing 'it is my responsibility to register you rightly told me i fucked up the process, for which i am ashamed as i should be, it is after all my responsibility to have my keys' with 'you asked me to register [therefore you somehow owe me somthing, you totally weren't pointing ☝︎
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825027 << traditionally chifir is made with http://fb.ru/misc/i/gallery/44825/1701533.jpg ☝︎
asciilifeform: i didn't either, lol
BingoBoingo: This country https://i.imgur.com/Zj8UjUj.gifv
asciilifeform: ...and potentially for dpa experiment. rma unlock , turns out , generates a disposable seekrit ( good for N tries, i fughet what N is ) , encrypts to google's ecc pubkey, and expects to be given the magic string back, to unlock
phf: asciilifeform: i suspect chromeos partner console is on a need to have basis. if it's just oem partners, then i'm out of luck, but if there's some flexibility there, then yes, there are official channels ☟︎
phf: asciilifeform: "Sadly, the result of loading this URL was… a _a_ GMail login prompt. So I log in with a GMail account, and get:"
asciilifeform: iirc i pointed this out in recent past, same snake can be used to tickle recent intel boxes also. ( but i have not explored this. )
phf: asciilifeform: i think you _might've_ misunderstood the thread. the point seem to have been not so much that the whole attempt is pointless, but it's the framing that was questionable. if you make a couple of snakes and send them at own expense to interested l1/l2, i don't see how it won't be worthwhile. we just don't have any idle reversers, who want to take a stab at it for the lulz, available at the moment. ☟︎
asciilifeform: phf: i was thinking of producing a coupla dozen snakes, to hand out to people, but per yesterday's mircea_popescu thread it seems not to be worth it
asciilifeform: and i'm still curious what an elephant-killing dose of gamma would do to the cr50. ☟︎
phf: well, if we don't, i'll see if i can get an unlock through corporate channels, and just use it as a one off machine ☟︎
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1824947 << heh, of course i just received mine today. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: it's gonna be such an open season of old woman head on pike soon enough. "but what did i do ?!" "you were someone's mom in the 90s/00s weren;'t you ?" "yes i was!" "fuck you, bitch." ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: hey, i beat hippies in the 90s until my hands fell off.
mircea_popescu: i find it SO fucking infuriating the all-soviet pioneer morons actually go about pretending like that idiocy is ~anything but~ the most laughable thing ever...
asciilifeform: i'm almost surprised that it didn't take off commercially.
asciilifeform: there was an earlier version of this lul, where it had a credit card reader and retractable spikes, but i cannot now find it, it was from early age of drmism
asciilifeform: i'd like a whole replacement machine, sure.
mircea_popescu: i'd rather have replacement brick than entertain this.
asciilifeform: aha, similar. ( in washington there is a gigantic monument , tipped with fist-sized piece of aluminum, pre-electrolysis / alcoa co. , when it was priceless ; prior to being installed on monument, thing was exhibited in new york, folx were permitted to... step over it, in a museum, 'i stepped over washington's monument!11' )
mircea_popescu: i... also can...
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 12:56 spyked: mircea_popescu, that's what I thought too, but it's a different item. apparently a binary for separate core in allwinner SoCs, http://linux-sunxi.org/AR100 prolly their version of fritz chip.
asciilifeform: spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1824913 << i picked rockchip for the arm64 experiments ~specifically~ for not having this. ☝︎
spyked: (I also have no idea what "scp" would stand for in this case. fun fact: all the open sourced bits for "sunxi" SoCs are full of comments in chinese, so they could have named it 馬公雞, same thing)
mircea_popescu: i confess my guess was based on ~nothing.
spyked: mircea_popescu, that's what I thought too, but it's a different item. apparently a binary for separate core in allwinner SoCs, http://linux-sunxi.org/AR100 prolly their version of fritz chip. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: jurov, don't worry about it or anything, i mostly use it as an ideal construct to smack alf over the head with educationally.
jurov: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1824587 dpb sent the crate to me, don't remember whether he kept some. i planned hosting, recently found out the designated "colo" place got rainwater leaks, postponed ☝︎
spyked: I've also found some work aimed at replacing some blobs ( https://github.com/crust-firmware/crust ), but I've currently no way of checking whether that really works (don't have an allwinner board atm), so this is where my digging stopped.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-08 13:41 asciilifeform: re upstack -- i do not currently have an 'allwinner', cannot comment re its uboot definitively.
spyked: revisiting the allwinner arm blobulism discussion for a moment (re. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-08#1821639 and maybe other threads). I've looked at the olimex shithub repo ( https://github.com/OLIMEX/DIY-LAPTOP/tree/master/SOFTWARE/A64-TERES ) and there are indeed some binaries that I can't trace to any source, namely: the kbd firmware and the 'scp.bin' blob. olimex also include a boot0.bin (no idea why, since this is also generated ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 00:08 asciilifeform: phf: i need an arbiter so as to give players some amt of confidence that rules will not change underneath them.
mircea_popescu: i believe.
lobbes: phew. I tell you, if there's one thing a dumbphone is good for it is for keeping up with mega-logs while out and about
mircea_popescu: but yeah, i guess it's becoming quite the antisignal huh.
mircea_popescu: i have no idea what you're talking aboot.
asciilifeform: varies. i dun recall e.g. spyked , or ave1 , getting coin thrown at
mircea_popescu: i'm in an impossible situation, on one hand this happens to be the correct approach i'm deploying, not dumbass contests. on the other...
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 01:49 asciilifeform: revisiting upstack : i categorically refuse to pay for any cr50 related work that does not produce a working and practically applicable pill. because there is no way to ensure that 'paid to advance art' rather than 'paid 10 derps' mortgages and student loans'
asciilifeform: speaking of which, i'ma bbl.
asciilifeform: d00d prolly saw 'wtf masonic ritual, why am i here, in kitchen there is vodka and it won't drink itself'
asciilifeform: possibly easily disheartened folk, we're better without, this is defensible. i've nfi.
trinque: I dun recall kicking, or even telling the guy to leave. ☟︎
asciilifeform: i'dve let this one live tho.
asciilifeform: nor do i expect trinque to massage folx on demand and for phree.
asciilifeform: i have 0 complaint re deedbot.
