amberglint: in
the end of
the video Knight is
talking about MultiLisp
a111: Logged on 2017-11-14 20:45 phf: it's funny
that 36xx series is basically an improved cadr. ivory on
the other hand? literally scheme86:
they poached both
the main guy who worked on
the cpu ~and
the entire
toolset~. ivory was still designed on CADR (rather
than smbx), because
that's where scheme
team designed
theirs
BingoBoingo: PeterL: I'm not opposed
to
the idea, but it
took dropping
the one auction down
to 500 USD before it started drawing regular bidding action. Before
then I was starting auctions one after another before one would get a bid. Also if an exchange rate auction over 500 USD and pay
the datacenter auction over 2835 US vary by
too much
that gets messy.
amberglint: amberglint: yeah, I remember your recent attempt
to x-ray
the chip
to get a better idea how
to decap it
a111: Logged on 2019-04-23 14:16 asciilifeform: little flex pcb
thing, inserts under
the 'ivory' and brings
the signals out
to analyzer.
BingoBoingo: There's also
this
thread in log
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-10#1894828 Anyways, I do want
to see auction built up. Will
try
to see if I can get bicycle guy into WoT. As far as brokering I don't know how much formality can/should be injected before
the ceremony of formaility becomes a handicap.
☝︎ amberglint: asciilifeform: I was glad
to read in
the logs
that you found
the pinout and
those other docs
a111: Logged on 2019-05-14 18:27 asciilifeform: seems odd
that someone would effectively give 3k / coin
to us 'for phree' for
the privilege of not participating in auction.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-27 21:50 asciilifeform: in other noose, asciilifeform met with some meatspace folx who rent out
time on sem & ion beam station by
the hr. 'bout a hundy per hr.
amberglint: asciilifeform: I've stumbled upon a video recording of
the lecture on
the Ivory given by a bolix engineer in 1987, apparently uploaded by a bolix 'graphics division' alumnus just
two weeks ago,
thought I should share it here:

thank you, I was
too slow
diana_coman: next you'll
think "for
the future of
the children" actually means something
diana_coman: well yes, but
they are all about
themselves, what;
diana_coman: eh,
they will live among emigrated friends of same
type, basically re-making
the local village, what
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2019-05-14 18:53 diana_coman:
there are as many
types of sausage including cardboard ones in Ro, no problem
diana_coman: so in
this sense I don't see what reading it does - it has nothing
to do with anything as such
diana_coman: there are as many
types of sausage including cardboard ones in Ro, no problem
☟︎ diana_coman: well yes,
that would have been perfectly ro
to in
the '90s ; not now
though
diana_coman: BingoBoingo: if I read
that correctly, asciilifeform simply says
that you should arbitrate yourself
the 2 markets you have access
to, since you consider it worth it.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-14 16:00 asciilifeform: 'move
to usa! 500 kinds of sausage in
the store!' 'cardboard with antibiotic?' 'shuddup
terrorist'
diana_coman:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-14#1913262 -> for one
thing you'd be surprised what people actually eat without complaint and for
the other it's not even
the sausages
they are moving for; usually it is more about
the "comfort" aka
the environment
that *least* magnifies
their own particular problems (in other words
that lies best
to
them).
☝︎☟︎ a111: Logged on 2019-02-10 22:07 BingoBoingo: Anyways, if
there is something I can do whether
that is standardizing
the length of auction, day of
the month it starts, duration, etc feedback is welcome.
BingoBoingo: But for
the past several months,
the Oriental Republic has been paying more for coin
than inside
the Serene Republic
BingoBoingo: If
the cash can be acquired locally for just under 8000 USD/Bitcoin
to pay
the datacenter, it seems like a prudent opportunity
to build up
the local network of corruption
BingoBoingo: We have our May exchange rate from
the Auction of: May 2019: 1 BTC = 5319 USD
BingoBoingo: And
TMSR exchange rate has been running noticably below heathen exchange rate.
BingoBoingo: We've been doing
the 500 USD auctions
the past few months
to set
the exchange rate. 500 USD auctions because bidding on higher amounts of WFF has been low
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It's
the person I've been dealing with
to get cash locally
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform mod6: Bicycle based exchange says he can do
the datacenter's amount with a week's notice so I am inclined
to go
that route
this month.

ticket machines: whole
ticket infrastructure in buc (and as far as I could
tell
timis
too) is contracted
to UTI, who installed embedded shit
that for years wouldn't go past
the power-on BIOS screen (they used AMD CPUs with some
Linux distro on
top).
ticket machines are a few decades away, although
there are maybe
three of
those in buc.

they remind asciilifeform of
those glue
traps for ants.

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-14#1913178 <-- some pretty shitty graffiti
too, incl. derpy "political statements", e.g. "basarabia is romania". might photo some of
that next photo session

diana_coman:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-14#1913236 -> lolz! ploiesti (~60km north of bucharest) simply has machine at bus stop, put coins in and get your
tickets, get on
the bus and stamp
them sort of
thing;
totally works
too, as far as I saw none of
them broken or anything and
they've been around for some years already.
☝︎ mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, so i just had
the currier drop on me a certain something...

☟︎☟︎ spyked can definitely see
the pointlessness of bus -- and sometimes
tram --
transportation, where
the bus in question spends most of its
time waiting for
the
traffic
to clear.
spyked: mp_en_viaje, besides
timisoara very walkable. morning walk was cca 30 minutes from near
the slaughterhouse/sala olimpia
to e.g. cathedral.

to have some pretty good graffiti game
though
