mp_en_viaje: that's such a particularly satisfying feeling when one's
travelling.

to know if anyone is hiring, informed him a couple datacenter places in Sao Paulo appear
to be growing fast.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-22 17:09 PeterL: I run about 10 loads of wash a week, I don't want something
that only handles one
T-shirt at a
time

to get
the vacuum, you also have
to vaporize
the water
a111: Logged on 2019-04-22 17:02 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: here's an old asciilifeform crackpottery : why exactly can't one buy clothes dryer
that runs on vacuum pump, instead of heater.
mp_en_viaje: not even limited
to marksmanship. it's just a general... look, if you're gonna be
the sorta guy who uses rifle, guess who you sleep with at night.
mp_en_viaje: if
there's one dood in a hundred in whose case
the gun's
the weak link in
the gun-gunner dipole, it's a wonder.
mp_en_viaje: of course,
the problem with "terrible gun" is
that 99.9x% of users are such fucking shit,
the gun's shortcomings don't even show in
the end product.
mp_en_viaje: rarely seen state of affairs at us gun shops ; generally gun worth 3-500 selling for 1-2k. sks surely worth
the 300.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-22 16:40 PeterL: I was in a gun store in 2010,
they had an SKS for $120, but I didn't get it, wish I did, now
they run about $450 around here

trinque: would be great
to see ave1
take
this on, and
then perhaps get deterministic bins. could cut official ISOs from
there

trinque: in fact, now
that caught, repair *should* commence. gcc is
the best first
thing
to fix.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, "arbitrary', yes.
the sorta arbitrary we do here, only called
that in
the sense i am not about
to engage
the relativistic dorkitudes of pantsuited morons.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, cuz built
to be repaired huh.

trinque: why not gcc3 or 2
then? where'd
the
thompson come in?
mp_en_viaje:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-04-22#1909271 << we picked 4.something as an arbitrary cutoff at some point illo
tempore,
through a mostly passive schelling / ad hoc agreement procedure. whatever
the merits of
the actual spot picked -- picking MULTIPLE ones is bad in
the sense you get
the downside multipled and nothing else.
☝︎ mp_en_viaje: but DO NOT run off
to
that before finishing
this.
mp_en_viaje: AND, with all
the experience from ffa, you actually got what you need as a basis
to actually make
that megaspire work.
mp_en_viaje: alright, well, month's not bad -- by
the
time you're done with ffa you can start a mega-bolix series.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-01 14:08 asciilifeform: in other noose, asciilifeform nao has what appears
to be full pinout,
timing, bus sequence, register, init magic, interrupts, etc. spec for bolix 'ivory' (won't, presently, say from where, unless source wants
to be cited, plox
to write in. )
a111: Logged on 2019-04-23 13:59 mp_en_viaje: basically, c (not
the code, nor
the language --
the UNIVERSE, all encompassing,
the mentalities of all
they involved,
their cultural productions over
the decades,
the horses
they used and
the women
they mounted --
the whole universe) is a wart upon reason. like a hemorrhoid or something. you
take your wart
to
the doctor, he
ties a string
tightly around it and well... it falls off eventually.
mp_en_viaje: when push comes
to shove,
the dude writing
the page about "how
to fix c"
that seemed sane on superficial examination will come out as exactly
the same mind as what produced
the problem in
the first place.
mp_en_viaje: "not particularly c-retarded"
the apparence is strictly due
to ~their lieing~.
mp_en_viaje: i confess i had hoped
this may solve itself ; but
then again c evidently only attracts a certain kind of person. whatever it may be
they ~say~, whenever it seems
mp_en_viaje: nobody does micro-surgery
to re-allign
the
tiny rectal blood vessels and remove
the hernia
that caused
the hemorrhoid in
the first place. i don'
tthink we should either, but rather, discover some working and workable string.
mp_en_viaje: basically, c (not

the UNIVERSE, all encompassing,

☟︎☟︎ mp_en_viaje: but it seems doubtless
that on
the long
term,
the eulora-style of "isolate, strangle and diminish" approach is
the only way
to handle c. rather
than provide support for it, produce some kind of small and compact
translator
that permits most of
the "features" it "offers"
to die quietly while not getting in our way in any major sense.
mp_en_viaje: just because
the entire
"mes" thing turned out
to be a single dude who further
turned out
to be a moron does not immediately resolve
the matter of whether
tcc can be bent into usable shape ; nor whether it should be confiscated wioth a view
towards such bending.

trinque: if somebody finds a way of leaping directly from gcc6
to 4, I'll applaud him, but I'm not burning any more hours of life in
there
a111: Logged on 2019-04-22 15:03 asciilifeform: i.e. i was able
to build conventional gentoo ( per my old recipe ) w/out any such
thing in
the mix

The count field we have in
the main struct object is somewhat limited, but should suffice for virtually all cases. If
the counted value doesn't fit, re-write a zero.
The worst
that happens is
that we re-count next
time -- admittedly non-trivial in
that
this implies some 2M fdes, but at least we function. */"
a111: Logged on 2019-04-22 14:29 spyked: asciilifeform, unfortunately 2GB (max. supported by motherboard) might still not be enuff. ideally I would plug in ave1 gnat build and use it
to build a minimal system, but will prolly have
to bootstrap
the whole
thing on another machine.
mp_en_viaje: best way
to do
these, i always say : while im not
there.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-22 07:40 spyked: in spyked updates: feedbot-iii is scheduled

the LUTs in
the '8k',
too.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 03:37 mircea_popescu: Mocky,
there's a usg-reservation in mexico.
there's however also
the headquarters of
the only military force
to humiliate
the usg at home
to date,
they pretty much conquered
the old mexican lands well into arizona.
mp_en_viaje: oh no, wait, it wasn't michael jackson. it was
that retarded fat fuck
that subbed for bruce dickinson in 1995.
mp_en_viaje: i dunno if you know
the subtext
there, but anyway, at some point in
the 90s romanians got REALLY butthurt someone
thought budapest is
the capitol.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, prolly going
to prague
this weekend.

☟︎ a111: Logged on 2018-09-04 16:24 BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> speaking of which, BingoBoingo you ARE making cozy with dc
tech people rite ?
taking
them out
to smoke & crimping
them
to pot or w/e it is
they do socially
there ? << Fairly friendly with
them now
that Rodrigo (Fellow who decided
to be
the point man in
the February affair, ben_vulpes met) is gone.
BingoBoingo: I get
the sun and wind. Even somewhat sheltered from most rain. More wind can be summoned with
the heat pump
too. For just about everything except demin it works.
BingoBoingo: I've got a clothing fork on
the balcony
that holds quite a bit, but denim just doesn't seem
to dry completely before dew falls i
the night and gets it wet again.

think you are underestimating
the power
that you would need for
this
BingoBoingo: Same reason you can't get borosilicate in
the US outside of flea markets, drugwar.
BingoBoingo: I don't much anymore.
Towels coming out of
the wash buckets dry faster
than jeans.

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-15#1902694 -> I always
thought jeans were cowboy stuff, not miner; and at least initially part of
the "waiting for
the americans" i.e. a
tribute
to an imagined greatness; how it morphed afterwards into an uniform I have no idea.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-18 22:15 mod6: I
try
to keep it in my mind
that
this is an ~array~ of words. And in my head, arrays grow left
to right. Or bottom up.
PeterL: yugos are
the ones who added a grenade launcher
