asciilifeform: i dunget, why 'you are not operating', 'do not have an active connection with a provider'

BingoBoingo: We have a /26 to fill in very.legit.manner and short order before LACNIC will assign a /24 because of scarcity. LACNIC's response to my first application: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/xW6LS/?raw=true

mod6: I'm a private kinda guy.

mp_en_viaje: aren;t looking at a case where qntra is alone on a box ? qntra can't afford such luxuries by itself.

mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-01#1779082 << a cool. can't do this from here, so will be weekendish. but the important details are missing, such as what software did you eventually pick to manage your cloud and so on. ☝︎

mp_en_viaje: so you divide what you want out of the total, add the margin and have a fine idea.

mp_en_viaje: we're paying iirc 900 for the rack, you want a unit it's 900/40*2

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, what's a mystery ?

mp_en_viaje: a good time to say "i want five plox" was you know, when we were specifying it ; but still perfectly available.

asciilifeform: right. but gotta specify. currently it's a mystery

mp_en_viaje: you get an interesting blog and a great reputation.

BingoBoingo: This is a point.

a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 00:30 mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-01#1779056 <<< this, for the record, is a question ~TO BE ANSWERED BY PICTURES BEFORE IT IS ASKED~.

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> the analogous BingoBoingo pic would be if he took one while standing inside the rack, like in phone booth << I will pick up a tower box here locally, set it in the cage and take this pic. The thing is deep.

mp_en_viaje: because i don't want a throng of poor but stupid women begging in my driveway.

mp_en_viaje: woman is to go around naked, not dressed. this because the positive she gets from the advertising of her sexual characteristics sums an epsilon over as large a crowd is exposed (this is a pantsuit rendition ; the correct statement is that her chances to score mp depend on exposure)

asciilifeform: ( if there's nothing to be lost by posting it... i bet it's quite a sight, why then not posted )

asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i assumed he did not post a photo for opsec reason

mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-01#1779056 <<< this, for the record, is a question ~TO BE ANSWERED BY PICTURES BEFORE IT IS ASKED~. ☝︎☟︎

mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-01#1779049 <<< word. nginx was impressive a year or two after it came out ; then it regressed to the mean at the usual speed (slowly but discernibly at first, "women in tech" level past few years) ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 23:06 ben_vulpes: or hm i guess the nick i picked was bv_is_a_scammer

mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-31#1779036 << you're not worthy! milk is a scammer! ☝︎

diana_coman: phf, ada<->C interop was quite straightforward last time I tried it, didn't take much at all; you'll need to add a few exports iirc

phf: diana_coman: ty, i'll try wiring it in, and keep you posted. i assume ada<>c interop is pretty straightforward, though i won't have a chance to try until later next week. suddenly busy ☟︎

asciilifeform: fwiw one can also define these like a barbarian, as x * 2 and x / 2 ; and gcc (last i saw) will Do The Right Thing and transform to a shift

asciilifeform: fwiw i do not know of a cpu , from any earthling cpu maker, that did not have shifts/rotates by 1

asciilifeform: (supposing this difference makes a difference to anybody)

diana_coman: tbh I would recommend it as a better "starter" approach anyway

diana_coman: phf, chapter 8 of eucrypt is a fully-working Keccak, albeit at bit level

trinque: pretty sure it's been there a long time https://archive.is/WwN89

BingoBoingo: shinohai: I still gotta get a bitcoind on the box

BingoBoingo: Alright, give it a try!

asciilifeform: i can only suppose he dun have a verdict yet...

BingoBoingo: rack with locking door and badass mesh barrier. Like a birdcage for hannibal lecter

ben_vulpes: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/#irc://irc.freenode.net/#trilema?&nick=bv_is_a_scammer

ben_vulpes: or hm i guess the nick i picked was bv_is_a_scammer ☟︎

mp_en_viaje: the problem with imbeciles is exactly the problem of bogota, buenos aires, whatever : they don't actually want to do any specific thing. they just want to look a certain way.

trinque got a txn out last night with 0.00038 fee

jhvh1: mod6: Error: "tslnb" is not a valid command.

a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 16:51 phf: all the userlevel tools that syscons used? nope, entirely new set of tools for doing pretty much anything, ~with a completely different argument list~

asciilifeform: did the thing ever have a civilized colonial past ? or was always shithole ?

mp_en_viaje: all day long 100% all effort spent trying to ~look a certain way~.

trinque: a lot of them have the middle one too, folds out of back seat

mp_en_viaje: you know, sometimes they take the milkmaid for a ride in the back of the little milk truck on three wheeks

asciilifeform: dunno that i've ever even been in a car without those, then

asciilifeform: why wouldja want to sit in a cab for hour?! to go to brazil??

mp_en_viaje: they're not DOING anything ; just trying to LOOK A CERTAIN WAY, with a minimum of expenditure. ☟︎

asciilifeform: 'ooh you thought this was a restaurant, not a sov factory cafeteria? funny'

mp_en_viaje: 100% serviceless economy, consisting of a bunch of dorks trying to look like the pictures in the decade old magazines from europe they got.

asciilifeform: ( and took maybe a week to produce, starting from empty disks )

asciilifeform: even dulap-III, heavy opteron box sitting on my desk and awaiting shipment to BingoBoingoistan, is a gentoo box.

phf: gentoo have left a bad taste in my mouth long time ago. i was running it for about a year since first release, and i was even really into python back then!

asciilifeform: the 1 item that left a bitter taste was the battery, they're dead after about 6mo from unpacking. but gentoo is not to blame for this

phf: eh, i haven't found anything that worked better or worse. everywhere i have to carve a haven, but put it on top of quicksand

asciilifeform: phf: thus far sounds about as much fun as a winblowz vista box

phf: likewise a lot of them pull gcc for build, lots of complaints about "llvm broke N" when you search for anything

asciilifeform: i had nfi there was a x60 with wacom

asciilifeform: i dun think i've ever sat on a working box with anything other than hand-sewn xorg.conf

phf: all the userlevel tools that syscons used? nope, entirely new set of tools for doing pretty much anything, ~with a completely different argument list~ ☟︎

asciilifeform: and is there a systemd on freebsd yet

phf: well, it's subtle things, here's an example. the kernel vty used to be syscons for years, replaced by "newcons", standard for a couple of releases now

asciilifeform: phf: did it ever get a working /dev/random back ?

asciilifeform not much interested in post-clangization freebsd; and currently dun have the time, energy to archaeologically unearth a working-on-recent-iron vintage

a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 14:01 asciilifeform: ( i posted even a patched, with own hand , bios for it, iirc phf uses ; and a kernel conf )

asciilifeform: ( granted , this has not happened in a while. the last major bout was perhaps the boot process itself, which was foolproof on classical pc arch up to late '90s, and then they 'had to' introduce acpiism, 'secure boot', abolition of the mbr, etc )

mp_en_viaje: ave1, would you consider gutting that entire class as a patch ? i have nfi why a "kses" bs is even needed. seems a case of giraffe's jugular.

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, tis a sad state of affairs. this item in my hands is, in a physical sense, quite fine. but then there's this intervening bullshit. literally like kid with autism/depression/anxiety/whatever the fuck. it would work fine if it just weren't born to ustards in ustardia.

a111: Logged on 2015-05-26 23:42 mats: fun fact: there is a particular ACPI table in that you can put anywhere in a low range of memory during boot, and Windows will take the payload data, drop it as an EXE, and run it as SYSTEM.

a111: Logged on 2014-07-22 20:06 Mats_cd03: and, there is an ACPI table exclusively for telling Windows not to apply fixes for buggy hardware because its in a VM, and VMM emulation of the hardware doesn't include said bugs.

mp_en_viaje: "Government sponsored enterprises enter the business, in due course bad behavior is made mandatory, and the evil financial network is bigger than the honest financial network, with the result that even though everyone knows what is happening, people continue to use the paper issued by the evil financial network, because of network effects - the big, main issuers, are the issuers you use if you want to do business." << j. a. donald

asciilifeform: whole arch as it exists today -- is a microshit production.

asciilifeform: whole arch was retarded, and born damaged, just about errything you see on top of it, is the top of a series of forced mistakes.

mp_en_viaje: why the everloving fuck would i imagine the solution is for the kernel to choose from a list maintained by the fucking power button

asciilifeform: asciilifeform has a whole www about this, lol

mp_en_viaje: this whole "o no mp, but the karnel must have a special place i ncpu" bs. IF IT DOES BAKE IT.

asciilifeform: intel arch was a trisomy from day1

asciilifeform: it's a 'grandmother with balls', could have sane cpu defined in 100pgs of a4, with no 'modes' at all, and no segments, and no idiocy, if intel had not succeeded in killing dec alpha, say

asciilifeform: there isn't , on x86olade, a 'longer than 16b regs, no segmentation, but no mpu and bios calls work' mode.

mp_en_viaje: all the USEFUL features could have existed in real mode branch with a minimum of effort. but they CHOSE to not do this.

mp_en_viaje: how about never mind about that and just do a 32bit realmode version, at the hardware level.

asciilifeform: cuz intel dropped as a child in 1978

mp_en_viaje: make a 32 bit one.

mp_en_viaje: i would say this is a glorious example of idiocy, imagine, the thing ~would work~ if just left the fuck alone. but smething in boot process fucks up my keys.

mp_en_viaje: a grub ? well iguess lessee.

asciilifeform: might be also worth a shot

asciilifeform: hp, recall, had a clitler, whole product line went to shit irrecoverably

mp_en_viaje: (resetting the kbd driver to ps/2 also works on some magically, tried that, but this piece of shit worst bios you've ever seen HAS a useless point and click interface but no setting of kbd driver)

mp_en_viaje: worth a shot but i don't feel like rebooting my windows terminal yet again

mp_en_viaje: which makes sense, seeing how there's a bevy of bs in find /sys/ -type f -iname '*brightness*' all of which permantly welded to either 0 or 255

asciilifeform: ( i posted even a patched, with own hand , bios for it, iirc phf uses ; and a kernel conf ) ☟︎

mp_en_viaje: i am using a screen called "default" that manifestly does not exist in any way except to fucking burn my eyes off.

ave1: so, no setting, but a old wordpress / new php problem

a111: Logged on 2018-01-30 23:12 mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-29#1778033 << it has a tags allowed for comment. if you put b user can bold, if not no. you may not have a on the list.

BingoBoingo: I suppose after the plugging in and the monthly statementing that I should write a tourism guide to Montevideo for alf et al

BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> the 90s were a lot better for partying, i'll tell you that. it's not clear to me that out of the entire world as it stands you can produce enough night life for a middling 90s town. << I believe. During the night walks there will be a lot of empty street and 1 bar where apparently the party is at, most locals crowded outside asking each other who has the weed hookup while the girlies grind in crowded basement dance trap.

asciilifeform: worx, tested. cost a buck.

asciilifeform: i have a handy little faraday sack for these

mp_en_viaje: HOWEVER they didn't have the fucking sense to make my key open the main gate. fucking banks can figure out this much for atm, but not these dorks. so i gotta wait there for a guard to show up and unlock it and wish me welcome, after the outside guard asks me n times what my room number is.
