the fates be with you.
jurov: "It's really amazing
that Chrome and Safari don't have a sanity check for
the size of a favicon. When I load
the root of
this website on safari,
the favicon automatically gets fetched...fetched..."
punkman: "the official exchange rate is 6.3 bolivars
to
the dollar. n
the streets, a money changer will be happy
to buy your dollars for 700 bolivars a piece." nice ratio
mircea_popescu: "how do you spell illiterate ?" "look it up in
the dictionary." "how am i going
to look it up if i don't know how
to spell it ?!"
BingoBoingo: But yes,
they get lots of planned holidays
mircea_popescu: the us banks seem
to be getting more holidays
than argentina
BingoBoingo appreciates
the
timing of
this latest broomstick
to happen with a US banking holiday on Monday
mircea_popescu: (who
the fuck knew - nurses are like
the one profession with
the largest bdsm bent, it's HUGE.)
mircea_popescu is doing his part by extracting young hottie nurses from
the system.
BingoBoingo: Anal fistulas will become
the leading cause of mortality in
the United States.
BingoBoingo: It will be impossible for all of
these planets
to get
their asses wiped.
BingoBoingo: This really is how
the US will fall.
The few will be unable
to keep with with
the many who can not wipe
their ass.
mircea_popescu: The first
time I went
to Chipotle was around 2004, when
the
then-novelty of a burrito chain opened within
two minutes walking distance from my high school."
mircea_popescu: " I refuse
to be deterred by conventional safety. I will eat Chipotle until it fucking kills me.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think either side knew enough of
the world back
then
mircea_popescu: i
think i'm ironically much more famous among
the idiot us-democrat crowd
than among
the idiot us-republican crowd.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ok but i mean, instead of article ? Ah. missed
that it snuck in
there. Need
to check
the front page more.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> iirc BingoBoingo once had something of
the sort << I imagine ben_vulpes mac has color display greater
than 9"
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> and what is
this "continue reading"
thing ? << It's always been a
thing. Keeps front page from reaching maxint length. Use started in early qntra when routinely dumping 10+ kiloword silk road document
text into articles
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo "Bitstamp has emailed users stating it has banned access from all IP addresses originating from
the Russian Federation access
to
the Bitcoin exchange." << SHould be fixed
assbot: Logged on 17-01-2016 21:06:37; BingoBoingo: In
this version, it is only enforced for peers
that send protocol versions >=70011 . For
the next major version it is planned
that
this restriction will be removed. It is recommended
to update SPV clients
to check for
the NODE_BLOOM service bit for nodes
that report versions newer
than 70011." end powerspam
phf: none of
that "rebuilding stage 3 with -O30 -mi868a" bullshit :>
phf: ben_vulpes: so i'm running slackware with homebrew for linux. base system comes with most
things you need
to run linux userspace, and if i want something extra i just build it with brew. old dog new
tricks
danielpbarron: instructions worked for me and i wanted a way
to reference
them
mod6: or, whomever did
that.
mod6: mircea_popescu: hey
thanks for putting up your steps in
the wiki
mod6: <+guruvan> mod6:
that image I made last night isn't working -
there's a fork at block 168000
that it's not liking << yeah
this is
the original v0.5.3 right?
mircea_popescu: not aware
that
there'd by any memoirs. she was kinda young for
that sort of
thing.
mircea_popescu: she kept a blog years ago but didn't write much in it. she did write asylum with me, so
there's
that.
punkman: my sympathies
to friends, family and eulorean
tribes
ben_vulpes: there are excellent reasons for
the 80-col law.
punkman: did chetty read c++ via
text-to-speech?
guruvan: once
those ideas have sufficient network effect yet
mircea_popescu: the only practical way
to know google didn't fucking invent
the un-shat-upon screen is
to personally know
the devs
that had done it before. i suspect
this is
true of most "genius ideas".
mircea_popescu: As a solution, Ms. McCuller created her own search engine, an amalgam of other search sites
that does not force
the user
to move slowly around
the site and wade
through advertisements
to find
the right place
to enter a query. Search words are entered at
the
top of
the page, and appropriate links are displayed above all other material as well. Users do not need
to
tab
through extraneous material."
mircea_popescu: That is because
the blind, even with
text‑reading software, cannot glance at a page.
There is no way for
them
to get a quick visual overview of a site�s contents and make mental notes about where it would be worthwhile clicking and exploring later. Rather,
the blind must laboriously click from line
to line, determining by a process of elimination where
they want
to go.
mircea_popescu: "Marti McCuller, a legally blind Web site developer, was frustrated by her difficulty in navigating
through search engines. �My
text‑to‑speech software let me read
the various search sites,� she said, �but
they often put so many links on a page it became hard
to use.�
ben_vulpes: guruvan: what better route forward
then? ubuntu 14.04?
guruvan: that's on
today's agenda is
to see why my glibc fails out of
the latest portage :P
ben_vulpes downloading stage
three for
the...second?
third?
time
today
ben_vulpes: 2
things drove
this
toolchain rebuild: exwm and
tri-on-the-metal.
ben_vulpes: "why gentoo?" asked $bzprtner, "is
that
the best linux
thing around for working on mega-c projects?" "no, it's simply
the least-worst and has a snowflake's chance of working"
ben_vulpes: should have listened
to you, but must piss on each and every fence myself.
ben_vulpes: chapter something in
the story, yes asciilifeform
ben_vulpes is doing
the same
thing he's been doing for
the past
three weekends, building a sane development environment on actual metal
mircea_popescu: no, more like SHITFACE or DERPSTORM or whatever
the fuck.
mircea_popescu: most of
the
time it's junk anyway, but hey, bureaucracy prevails!
guruvan: why
this is even in
the code in
the first place is a mystery
guruvan: there some more docs on
the rotor script?
this looks like
the mojo I'm looking for for
the simple docker "whip up a node for
testing" builds
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> holy shit, year-old instructions ?!!1 <<
the link he gave references a log line by me from just before xmas.
guruvan: I was wondering about
this when I saw
this in
the logs
today (on classic?)
guruvan: seriously asciilifeform what's up
there
guruvan: more or less
tried all
the pertinent commands - made sure it seemed set up right
guruvan: I got V working, synced and all, just not
tried
to do a build with it yet
guruvan: sorta - I
think I have everything in
the current mirror set all figured out - haven't
tried
to build anything outta
that yet
mircea_popescu: lotta people suddenly got interested, caught us with
the pants down in a very wrong spot
to have pants down.
guruvan: mircea_popescu: docker image Dockerfile helps document buld process -that part of why I do
these
guruvan: I'm not using
that - I'm building straight from a
tarball
mircea_popescu: listen, ben_vulpes mod6 you gotta have a process
to prevent
this situation. no documentation is bad. wrong or obsolete documentation is way way worse.
guruvan: asciilifeform: working on a
trb docker image - looks like was 168000 p2sh ?
guruvan: mod6:
that image I made last night isn't working -
there's a fork at block 168000
that it's not liking
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "Bitstamp has emailed users stating it has banned access from all IP addresses originating from
the Russian Federation access
to
the Bitcoin exchange."
mod6: yeah,
this seems
to be
the case on ubuntu & deb (iirc), only works on gentoo for me. you fixed
this once iirc. but i've since lost
the changes :/
punkman: I
think I had
that error, just changed around
the quoting of
the vdiff command
