mp_en_viaje: i dunno if i make myself clear on this fucking obvious score, because it's never easy to guess when the obvious has been belaboured enough for they for whom it wasn't, somehow, obvious -- but please ask q's qs.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 14:37:57 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i dun expect it is possible to get serious damages outta the latech corpse. but if you botch this basic step entirely, i expect uy will become a very hot bath for BingoBoingo .
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 14:27:56 BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'm thinking I propose we sign some text to end the contract by mutual consent, this leaves open the opportunity to pursue damages for the breaches unless they start negotiating some compensation. At this point though I'm inclined to just get the stitches attaching my scrotum to them cut, but if you really want me to pursue damages I can try that but it will require as MP pointed out... time in to U
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945965 << i would suggest you ask for money. you really have ~0 incentive to let them walk. you don't have to pursue anything specifically for this, either.
mp_en_viaje: you can't say "i'm not going to own ANY".
mp_en_viaje: the "oh, we're about to replace ye olde internet anyways" works as an argument against TRYING TO CORNER THE MARKET. that's a very different thing, you might say "i don't intend to own a quarter of all ips because tmsr's gonna replace the dumb shit anyways".
mp_en_viaje: you gotta have some of everything to be. this is the bar. as a schoolchild in sovok, gotta have a slingshot, and a tube for shooting paper cone things, and i dunno, a depeche mode casette tape or w/e the fuck you faggots did back in the day.
BingoBoingo: trinque: I do have the original .tar.gz.gpg files, yes. Also have a server now.
mp_en_viaje: what the fuck is going on with me, i'm morphing into the borg over here
mp_en_viaje: jeez, spent the night with a bottle and a gaggle o' sluts at the strip club, slept for a few hours and i'm like... up.
trinque: do you have the originals in case someone wakes up after I delete?
feedbot: http://bingology.net/2019/10/06/i-sit-i-weigh/ << Bingology - BingoBoingo's Blog -- I Sit. I Weigh.
mod6: I feel like the best we can hope for here is to tear up the remaining part of the contract, which, iirc, continues through the end of Feb. 2020.
asciilifeform: this is where i admit that i've nfi what sorta judges, etc. in that orcistan, and what e.g. latech is counting on when goes around scamming BingoBoingos. ( inaction of victim ? or connivance of judge ? or what is their krysha ? etc )
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'd imagine so; but given mp's reminder that 'yer in a ~lawless orcistan' ' what asciilifeform imagines ' aint worth the electrons, i suspect
BingoBoingo: Anyways, they have less time on their clock than I do.
asciilifeform: i'd comment, but this is squarely a q for actual abogado, and/or mp , quite above asciilifeform's grade .
BingoBoingo: I'm thinking something like: I propose we mutually end this contract. Here's a draft termination agreement for your consideration: [very basic mutual termination letter notably omitting any waiver holding them harmless for their breaches while including a waiver of all claims they may have/invent against me] and ask them what language and terms they want to include in the agreement to avoid "[http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'm 100% in favour, ftr, of suit. but before can use the piggy , must get prelim data and for mod6 to concur .
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-11#1944995 << I informed then in writing that they are in breach. Maxi's weasle response and their silence suggests they are aware expecting to receive notice of a suit.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: so, as i understand, you have 2wks for to figure this item out.
asciilifeform: to lawyer -- maybe. if mod6 concurs. to get BingoBoingo out ? any day of week, and i promised to personally extract him if needed. but to latech, no pasaran.
BingoBoingo: I concur with no further money into their piggy bank.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i dun expect it is possible to get serious damages outta the latech corpse. but if you botch this basic step entirely, i expect uy will become a very hot bath for BingoBoingo .
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I've got a small pile of contact information to churn through. Challenge so far has been carving out concrete time to take conversations further than gathering contacts.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'm thinking I propose we sign some text to end the contract by mutual consent, this leaves open the opportunity to pursue damages for the breaches unless they start negotiating some compensation. At this point though I'm inclined to just get the stitches attaching my scrotum to them cut, but if you really want me to pursue damages I can try that but it will require as MP pointed out... time in to Uruguay to continue
asciilifeform: in re 'when' : if coloco folx told the troof re 'key on friday', i expect oughta have this in by mon.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: copy the sd also ( they oughta be standard, but iirc diana_coman may have modded the kernel, and i'd like it carried over guaranteed )
asciilifeform: ty BingoBoingo . i purchased exact same ssd stick as used prior, so oughta sit down cleanly.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform diana_coman: Aite, I'll put it on the list.
asciilifeform: aite, let's ask BingoBoingo to dd if=/dev/thatstick | gzip > diana_coman.img.gz and then gpg to asciilifeform . i'ma modify it strictly as required to sit down on new ip and naught else.
asciilifeform still not calculated what to charge for these, and must do so quickly. i'ma give folx month 'test drive' tho, given the untestedness of the whole orchestra .
asciilifeform: diana_coman: you mentioned rk ; i've prepared an rk for you, using same type of ssd as prev. lemme know if you want a different type. it will be installed as soon as i get keyz to the magick door and have the entrance router configged (it arrives, loox like, on fri. also)
asciilifeform: ( i.e. similar to what kept the 'swift' organization pretending to neutrality, until recent yrs , as i understand it )
asciilifeform: the 1 thing, i suspect, that keeps the show going, is the reich's desire to prevent e.g. ru, cn, from forming own 'arin' and properly splitting off.
BingoBoingo: I'll probably see what the 12 ouncer I flew in does outa curiosity.
mp_en_viaje: in other horrors, i'm sitting here watching this other box literally cycle through interfaces. NOTHING WORKS. every 3-5 mins, reconnects to somethingelse.
mp_en_viaje: i did say 3-5kg as those are all i ever tried ; but a ladies' 5lb version prolly just as good, w=mv^2 after all
mp_en_viaje: pretty sure i have the whole thing somewhere, could fish it out and upload if you want.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 11:06:29 asciilifeform: (speaking as almost complete ignoramus re subj) : mp_en_viaje do you know how 'well-behaved' is arin ? i.e. do they routinely confiscate ip blox from 'undesirables' the way the dns people do ?
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945906 << i don't specifically know ; there's precedent saying old owners actually own the numbers in question which so far has been upheld
asciilifeform: ...fwiw i've never 1nce heard of anyone other than landlord ( either at behest of officious snoops or on own initiative ) pinching a racked box.
asciilifeform: here they even had 'face reader' etc. stage props. i did not find it interesting, considering who it is who actually steals boxes in practice, none of these do a lick of good (or harm, really) afaik.
asciilifeform: ( cuz if not : where do their auction-block ips come from ? i was told 'ipv4 is full' etc )
asciilifeform: (speaking as almost complete ignoramus re subj) : mp_en_viaje do you know how 'well-behaved' is arin ? i.e. do they routinely confiscate ip blox from 'undesirables' the way the dns people do ?
asciilifeform: ( even if i'd dropped immediately that 6k on the table, apparently takes weeks, rather than 'RIGHT NAO' , so will have to start with certain # of plebian leased ips . )
asciilifeform: it's defo worth having. and i'd like to buy a quantity, but 1st to investigate whether even possible w/out selling organs.
mp_en_viaje: the one point i'm making here is that this is worth having if one's serious about their own ontology.
mp_en_viaje: i expect
asciilifeform: i'ma have to get the word from horse's mouth tho, and haggle directly.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-15 23:14:30 asciilifeform: asciilifeform asked 'what if i want to buy own'. was shown jawdropping lulz where arin wants not only 'get on wait list' but 1000+ / yr in 'organizational maintenance fee' and +150/yr for each contig. block maintained etc.
mp_en_viaje: but i suspect this discussion is a lot like "is bitcoin worth it". if you can get one, in the sense of, yours, you want one. if you already have one not necessarily, but if you already have 0 then yes necessarily.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 10:20:58 asciilifeform: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945816 << in that shop, they dun ~sell~ blocks, but lease by the single ip. what was offered , is to connect with broker who sells. i inquired, min. purchase is /24 from their broker, at 6k usd. imho oughta comparison-shop before shelling out, price seemed astronomical ( am i rube ? always 6k ? )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: entirely so. and i'ma chronicle the thing properly, get the photo-shy people into the photos if at all possible.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, just about, actually. i swear to god, this place is something else, wonderful night life, accomodation starvation.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i was fwiw shown a room fulla round-the-clock fiddlers who supposedly handle ddos.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: yer right tho. i can always 'un-advertise''em laters, if the thing's a dud.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: fair cop btw. i amended the article.
diana_coman: fwiw data centres here will rent lockable quarter/half/full racks from ~240, 350, 600 gbp, respectively; the saddest part being anyway the fact that they are still all quite same regimented style otherwise as far as I can see.
diana_coman: asciilifeform: this is why I said invite them to irc rather than directly ask them to register key, lol; but sure, it's your show entirely
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i fully intend to attempt to turn the 2 into 'people' (vs 'horse') but would like to avoid having'em stampede away immediately like your various vendors galloped. ( will just as readily 'ride as horse' if must, the bloody rack is so cheap as 'almost free', i've been paying almost half of that sum for the retarded hoster where my www is currently )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: friday. and right, i expect he'll be in civ clothes.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i'ma ask the crew if they'd like to be personally pictured in the next phototour, also. they had some strange fixation re 'if you sublease space, plz dun use our brand', so left'em out of the pic.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i suppose is what i get for cribbing from people w/out thinking.
asciilifeform: i'ma amend the article.
asciilifeform: ok on reread , seems that i posted init. chronicle after diana_coman already asleep. so fair point.
diana_coman: asciilifeform: fwiw yes, reading it I had this moment "wtf doesn't he name them" but no, I don't *always* shout, lol.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: the way i read it, it was on acct of both 'not yet key' and 'not yet known whether worx'
diana_coman: ie no identity, not "not enough testing"; and I promptly added their name as soon as maxim registered the key.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 10:09:39 asciilifeform: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945788 << i copied directly from diana_coman's 'no free advertising for new park until at least ~tested~' . ordinarily would have immediately named... wai no flame for diana_coman's piece ?
diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945831 - uhm, let me cite from footnote 1: "I can't really give their name since they don't yet have an identity really, seeing how they don't have anybody with a registered key"
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 04:46:56 mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945767 << i would like you to get all the disparate c blocks he's willing to sell you ; and to stop being what you call "conservative" and which only can be called being an idiot.

asciilifeform: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945811 << unlike piz, i'ma not only cultivate this 1 fella, and personally, but intend to find a hot spare. cuz they actually exist. and yes will chronicle how unearthed. atm occupied w/ actually having what to go in that 1st cage when it goes live.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 04:43:05 mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945751 << really sounds like a pretty good deal. i'm sure without asking you are still imbecile, eschewed my suggrstion of buying guy lunch.
asciilifeform: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-16#1945804 << i'ma be goin' there ~daily in short order, will have all the photographies and minute-by-minute writeups anyone can stomach. atm trying to actually equip the cage, remember that it has to be done w/ hands, and the irons purchased. i dun have slaves to do it.
asciilifeform: think, suppose i brag about 'ooh i leased a rack, such great doors and coffees' and then week later not plugged in. or entirely scamola.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 04:25:30 mp_en_viaje: listen to this inept shit : "Currently I will not mention the vendor by name here, as I do not yet know the quality of the service"

mp_en_viaje: nfi wtf, but horribru connectivity every which way, you'd think i moved to alaska.
mp_en_viaje: o no wait, i mean, ima go check the third decimal of my laser-temperature measurer, if it happens to be nine ima go walk up and down the hallway for exactly 4 minutes 44 seconds, if i count exactly 395 paces THEN ima tqake the sluts for breakfast.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945767 << i would like you to get all the disparate c blocks he's willing to sell you ; and to stop being what you call "conservative" and which only can be called being an idiot.
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945764 << and, i suppose, "pics if anyone asks hurr durr" yes ? oh, good.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-15 22:58:52 asciilifeform: nao, i do not yet know whether these people are Officially 'ixp'. but appears that serve a similar function, several regional isp are tied together there, and they can process bgpism, service client-owned ip real estate etc

mp_en_viaje: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945725 << fwiw i had dozens of sticks hammered into inexistence. you want a 3-5kg hammer, the first 2-3 hits expose the chips no matter what, the plasticovers fly like insect elitrae. then the chips become dust in 2-3 more hits, can count 3-5 sticks dead / minute in qualified hammerer hands.
mp_en_viaje: i would be much surprised if indeed a full ONE PERCENT of the dependencies you perceive/imagine/hallucinate are actual bona fide legitimate dependencies. you live your life in the http://trilema.com/2014/ubuntu-is-a-worse-piece-of-shit-than-ms-dos-ever-was/ style ; naming some outfit doesn't depend on whether they're good, it depends on whether they're important, which they are already since you drove there. explaining what you did and why you did
mp_en_viaje: i lose nothing for http://trilema.com/2019/how-germany-got-itself-banned-and-western-europe-altogether-isnt-all-that-far-behind/?b=Ram&e=cunts#select ; you lose the world for http://www.loper-os.org/?p=3478#selection-5.65-5.166
mp_en_viaje: your article has no LENGTHY EXPLANATION of the important fucking subject, "how the fuck i unfucked my head and stopped using google because google does nothing and here's what does and why and wherefore and what it means"
mp_en_viaje: listen to this inept shit : "Currently I will not mention the vendor by name here, as I do not yet know the quality of the service"
lobbes: Small fix, so I'll probably release a vpatch tomorrow for it. (about to fall asleep right now)
lobbes: (i.e. it wasn't parsing the "1" from the config, as it was reading it as a string. Thus couldn't properly toggle to debug mode.)
lobbes: in logotronics news, I discovered a tiny bug in bot.py's debug toggle (of all places). the "if irc_dbg == 1" should be "if int(irc_dbg) == 1"
asciilifeform: sumthing, somewhere, BingoBoingo , is always! for sale. i went to buy 1st small cage, tho, not whole planetoid. planetoid maybe -- later.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: AHA, I just peaked. Some /19s for sale apparently
asciilifeform: ( i dun expect mp is having to pay, having bought in 'golden age' )
asciilifeform: asciilifeform asked 'what if i want to buy own'. was shown jawdropping lulz where arin wants not only 'get on wait list' but 1000+ / yr in 'organizational maintenance fee' and +150/yr for each contig. block maintained etc.

asciilifeform: nao, i do not yet know whether these people are Officially 'ixp'. but appears that serve a similar function, several regional isp are tied together there, and they can process bgpism, service client-owned ip real estate etc
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i inquired whether dc is primary line of biz in that shop. seems that it is not, they bolt together and sell 1 of those 'disk array' things, petabyte ea. there's a factory floor of sorts.
