shinohai: now if I can only figure out what
to do next
ascii_field: and
thus have all
the builders end up with actual same binary
ascii_field: it is
the only way
to get deterministic gcc
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: not so
theoretical. we just had another fella successfully 'buildroot' moments ago.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field
this
theoretical "so and so will happen" is nice and good, but also is useless in
this discussion. following hanbot's mega-explosive "hey,
this shit dun work on
the most commonly seen linux out
there" has been enlightening.
BingoBoingo: Dice girl's nick was pikachujdc or something like
that.
mod6: <+ascii_field> if it doesn't - walk your box out behind
the shed & shoot it, get a real computer << :D
assbot: Logged on 27-07-2015 12:57:13; mircea_popescu:
this is
the one from dooglus' site
that
took her pic with a wooden something up her snatch right ?
ascii_field: if it doesn't - walk your box out behind
the shed & shoot it, get a real computer
☟︎ ascii_field: if buildroot builds on your box -
the rest will build
ascii_field: one of
the beauties of going buildroot-only is
that we will no longer have
this crud
to put up with.
mod6: ok one problem for sure
that I noticed when executing
the boost steps manually is
that I didn't have realpath installed.
mircea_popescu: 550 IP 188.68.240.159 is blocked by EarthLink. Go
to earthlink.net/block for
mircea_popescu: there shall be a lot of "withdraw and
think about it" in
the retard camp methinks.
mircea_popescu: "I hate
to be hyperbolic, but want
to understand ISIS or
the
Tea Party or Occupy or Charleston or Dylan? Look no further
than Gawker and its ilk, which means look no further
than
twitter or your own so-called smartphone: We are making
the world a miserable place. I’m glad I can withdraw and
think about it."
shinohai: I missed
the cross-dev builder heh
ascii_field: (will need a hybrid of
the 'stator' script and
the static cross-dev builder posted a while ago)
ascii_field: shinohai:
there is not, presently, a working bitcoind for
the pogo buildroot
that is made by
the recipe linked earlier.
ascii_field: shinohai: what are you
trying
to achieve ?
mircea_popescu: "Two Fridays ago, when I read a story posted on Gawker
that seemed
to senselessly out a nobody for soliciting a gay porn prostitute, I immediately
thought someone should be fired."
shinohai: Ok so now I have
this, what should my next step be ascii_field
trinque: and I've gleaned some of
the striking parallels between
the USSR and
the present USSA by listening
to you gentlemen.
trinque: I'll do some reading on both; I am curious generally about
the (seemingly) ever-repeating process of collapse
decimation: anyone who works for a soulless bureaucracy would immediate recognize
the similarities
decimation: trinque: I got
the flavor of some of it from
the writings of Solzhenitsyn
ascii_field: orlov: 'There is a bug in blogger where it sometimes publishes a post even if
the date is set in
the future. I disabled feeds
to work around it.'
ascii_field: commenter: 'The article showed up on your RSS feed yesterday.
That is probably how Zero Hedge got it.'
ascii_field: (however, he is almost entirely unconcerned with
the politics, only
the consequences in daily life)
ascii_field: if you are only concerned with
the collapse, orlov's 'post-soviet lessons' is notbad
ascii_field: trinque: i know of no 'go-to' secondary source re:
the whole shebang
trinque: ascii_field: do you recommend a starting-point book on USSR history, or is
the material not in english?
ascii_field: and many
toeholds for u.s. state dept., 'voice of america', hyoooman rightz
ascii_field: after
that - 'stagnation period' and brezhnev, and discontent, and 'dissent'
ascii_field: easy
to hold 'mandate of heaven' while subjects are convinced
that
they are being 'lifted'
decimation: ^ but also
the occasional road project 'for
the people'
trinque: but I see how
the cost increases for each round
decimation: mainly for minerals
today, but
tomorrow
the people
ascii_field: apparently
they were desperate enough
to
try africa.
trinque: maybe china will look elsewhere for people
to step-up; iirc
they are already doing
this
decimation: because
their parents were dirt farmers
trinque: I can certainly see how
that level of devotion would wear out
ascii_field: folks who are not resentful, as you and i would be if we were chained
to factory
tomorrow
assbot: Logged on 25-02-2015 16:31:47; asciilifeform:
this is, by some indications, a non-renewable resource
that's getting burned up rather quickly
trinque: and if
they pulled off something like
that, I'd not
think
them so naive
they
think
they can do
that forever
trinque: they've done
that masterfully
trinque: I see
the chinese strategy as having been
to bootstrap
their own industrial economy by sucking
the life out of ours. (obviously not an observation hard
to come by)
assbot: Intel Corporation - Intel Enters into Strategic Agreement with Rockchip
to Accelerate, Expand Portfolio of Intel-Based Solutions for
Tablets ... (
http://bit.ly/1IpNtwQ )
shinohai: Since it is
too hot for
tea, I chose a more refreshing drink
this
time around.
trinque: sure but on
the one hand one could discuss
tactics against
the USA, and on
the other, a sort of aspirational "best"
ascii_field: (and grandchildren will, by all indications, have
them again)
ascii_field: why fight lice, fleas? our ancestors had
them
ascii_field: no reason - manking got along without
this,
too, for quite a while.
trinque: worry about being better
than
themselves after we're dead
trinque: they can just eat
the food we feed
them
trinque: why do
they need
to design new chips from scratch
to unseat
the USA as
the leading economic and military power?
ascii_field: when somebody like me says 'let's design computer from scratch', a 'roi/tco'
type reads 'let's make a megatonne pyre of money and light it'
decimation: ascii_field: for example do you suppose 'rockchip' is nothing more
than a pile of 'stolen' cores?
trinque: they'll get
to
the design
too
ascii_field: decimation:
there is not
the slightest sign whatsoever of
this ever happening
trinque: ascii_field:
they're busy inventing factories
decimation: ascii_field: I suppose at one point cadence will get similar
treatment
ascii_field: wake me up when cn is using something other
than winblowz (and stolen american designs, e.g., 'arm' wholesale) in
their fabs
decimation: they eat from below; apparently once
the bathwater is circling
the
tub - management & hedge funds come
to eat 'from
the
top'
trinque: good for
them;
they have
the good sense
to... make...
things...
decimation: meanwhile
the chiense are busy putting us hardware companies out of business
trinque: not all of which are utter morons, but
these surely are
decimation: the fact
that 'security' has been defined-down
to 'managing /etc profiles' is
the punchline
decimation: usg is nominally responsible for
the 'security' of all of its computers and a good deal of its subsidary's
ascii_field: as far as i can see, it is an internal auditing
tool
decimation: or
they are just
trying
to half ass
the halfass
tools
they have
ascii_field: and i can't fathom why anyone outside of usg walls would even consider using
this
trinque: and
they're distributing it
thusly
trinque: I'm saying
they have some puppet exploit
trinque: which
touches every possible knob on system config
trinque: ascii_field: sure, but
the fact
that
this is a huge wad of ruby code for puppet amuses me
to no end
trinque: wasn't "simp" what
the semi-intelligent gorillas were called in Rama?
trinque: they're diving in with
the redditards/shithubians directly?
decimation: "The entire idea of breaking Qualcomm up into
two companies, for example, makes no sense from an ongoing business perspective — but it makes great sense if you’re an investor who believes
the real money is in patent licensing (an extremely high-margin business) and not in chip manufacturing. "
decimation: the surface reading re: qualcomm:
the management knows
they are in a hole and
therefore are colluding with outside investors
to pirate assets from
the company before it dies
decimation: ... share count at
the end of fiscal 2014 was flat compared with five years before."
shinohai: I
thought it would be funny if he actually stored a copy of his key "encrypted" on
their server
trinque: I only
tweet dickery, as a matter of principle
shinohai: and holy shit I got
the patch
to apply
