shinohai: I don't expect drastically different results than from first pass, but never hurts to poke these things with a stick some.
mod6: shinohai: ah, alright, i'll probably have a full patch for people to look at here later today.
phf: heh "1992 vintage italian shoe. the sole i head to replace out of hand carved wood, but leather is literally like nothing you can get anymore!!1" ☟︎
phf: my grandfather (and his generation) spent their leisure time working on cars (also billiard and preferance). i can't help but think that working on keyboards is a bit of a step down :o ☟︎
asciilifeform: i ended up buying a full set of carpenter's clamps, and keeping'em around just for it..
asciilifeform: phf: exclusing items on wheels , i dun think i've ever owned a mechanical device that was as much of a bitch to reassemble , as the 'f'
phf: i have a second model f that i was promissing someone to make operational, i'll play around with that one
asciilifeform: phf: i even suspect that it is possible to improve the cornall design with... randomized scan. i suspect that the sequential scan, sets up resonances. ☟︎
asciilifeform: at least every single one i've ever seen a photo of the inside of.
asciilifeform: phf: ftr i think the 'matrix' design is ridiculous. esp in a device that cost what a harley cost at the time.
asciilifeform: but i dun have a better one myself, either
asciilifeform: afaik was not in original design. i think herr cornall's replacement board design was not quite 'pro' quality, tbh
asciilifeform: even after painting the inside of the plastic top of mine with conductive pait, i still occasionally got this headache. now seems to be gone. ( cable was antenna... )
danielpbarron: !~later tell trinque ok i finally got around to looking at this cuntoo thing. machine can't load the kernel. when i chroot to try to rebuild it, i can't even mount /dev points or df -h ☟︎
shinohai: ^ Unlike teh gribble maintainer, I removed the btc-e price
lobbes: Top three things I need to do next: 1) set up automated updating of the reporting database the thing sits on (currently 'stale' data). 2) set up lobbesbot to similarly search via IRC commands 3) Zip distribution system! ☟︎
asciilifeform: they're in stock ( both here and at danielpbarron's , last i knew )
shinohai: Well I was thinking of attempting this, since as of yet have been unable to purchase.
asciilifeform: i am still, incidentally, waiting for somebody to admit to making his own fg
shinohai: oh cool, thanks I missed that
asciilifeform: ( generally i recommend that users obtain own cable )
TomServo: asciilifeform: Am I mistaken there are 2 types of fg? 1 usb, 1 rs232 ?
danielpbarron: nobody bought any at that price so i lowered till they did
danielpbarron: i did?
TomServo: asciilifeform: aha, I just noticed danielpbarron lowered his price.. so I was curious.
shinohai: danielpbarron: heh me too ... I updated your rating here http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-29#1760626 but isn't reflected ☝︎
danielpbarron: i just noticed wot.deedbot.org is not up to date. many days off
danielpbarron: furthermore, out of principal i shouldn't change the rating over unless you can prove this situation with the old key, and i already feel like i can't be arsed to do all this
danielpbarron: thought i rated this guy
mod6: So remaining changes include the one just discussed above, and the possible change to how I make/use tmp dirs.
mod6: The automated tests that I wrote are paying in spades btw.
mod6: I'm still gonna write up that blog post about the change to how the press-path is calculated. Hopefully have somthing here by Monday.
mod6: so, hindsight here... i should have just stuck to that.
mod6: ah, no. i always use a different press dir name, but im pretty anal about how i use v.
mircea_popescu: i always imagined you have it in there because you got sick of constantly deleting dirs by hand
mircea_popescu: mod6 i just meant that "rf" the utility doesn't actually fit his standard.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> your system can't have rf in it. << Catching up here... I'd like to change how my vtron handles this. I think this is the simplest / safest solution: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/PKYLq/?raw=true
asciilifeform: i haven't any model of why they would, aside from possibility that BingoBoingo gained +9000 courage , from his successful jailbreak
asciilifeform: what i still dunget is, why would the gurlz use an item like this
BigTexasBingo: Well, after leaving the mall it pings myself and the girlies I didn't notice to flirt with that we were in roughly the same place.
shinohai: I was looking it over to see if the ads were just as lulzy as the US ones
BigTexasBingo: Here I was expecting fatter than the fotos and the girl turned out good except for the 100kg on the other side of her umbilical cord
asciilifeform: BigTexasBingo: experience from timis expedition. i had them benjies nicely sealed up but these critters could still smell'em
BigTexasBingo: And for 30 pesos and 35 minutes in the mall (latinas and time) I know another location full of chicas guapa
mircea_popescu: BigTexasBingo which reminds me, i was gionna translate a ro piece
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform didn't he get all ptsd after interacting with canadian academia, or am i conflating
asciilifeform: ( i.e. converting the honest into scammers, to further scam elsewhere )
mircea_popescu: i'm getting a better idea of what you mean.
jhvh1: shinohai: “I Wore the Juice ”- The Dunning-Kruger Effect – Galleys – Medium: <https://medium.com/%40littlebrown/i-wore-the-juice-the-dunning-kruger-effect-f8ac3299eb1>; The burglar with the lemon juice disguise – Mind Hacks: <https://mindhacks.com/2010/02/11/the-burglar-with-the-lemon-juice-disguise/>; Why a bank robber thought covering himself in lemon juice would ...: (1 more message)
shinohai: !~google "But I used the juice"
a111: 1 result for "\"but i used the juice\"", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=%22but%20i%20used%20the%20juice%22
mircea_popescu: !#s "but i used the juice"
asciilifeform: worse, some of these folx even imagine themselves successful scammers : 'hey i milked 100k's worth of meritwashium out of mit, now all i gotta do is find another'
shinohai: I'll make a pull request.
mircea_popescu: just putting it in teh plain that it works exactly opposite from most items, where it's rather "do it right so i don't have to have it redone"
mircea_popescu: note tho that i am NOT going to enforce any kind of responsibility for vtrons. the item says "MAKE YOUR OWN!!! vtron" for a fucking reason, and this is that reason -- if you use another man's parachute package better not be surprised by the fact he likes to keep girl undies there.
asciilifeform: i.e. problem may not turn lethal for a while, but eventually somebody will sit down in 'sweet spot'
Jautenim: mircea_popescu my issue is that I had a wrong expectation wrt the press operation and cut meself a finger
mod6: I try to keep docs up to date. And add protections where they are needed. Hopefully my vtron is, over time, getting better. Not worse.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-10 20:29 BigTexasBingo: Story later, but short is find a Dominican for language immersion and get introduced to the mother at a time I would call too soon if it wasn't how every chica seems to operate here
mircea_popescu: can't run around changing ~your~ v to match obscure config expectation of userbase ; high time userbase gets literate and walks out of the "i just wanted to" mindset.
mod6: and also, fwiw, that change did not make it into the normal v document. but did end up in the changes list in the email. i'll have to make a note to add that to the doc.
mod6: from_ffa: sorry I missed ya on here. but for now, yeah, that behavior is intended.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-14 04:35 mod6: <+mircea_popescu> i suppose alternatively could just say DO NOT PRESS TWICE! DELETE DIR BETWEEN PRESSES. << agree. there obviously needs to be a check in there - if the press directory already exists, warn the user and stop.
mod6: i'll go dig it up.
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> at least ~/workspace << i gotta dig this up from the logs. but older versions of v.pl actually *would not* over-write the original dir, would fail and say 'dir exists' or something.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-10 20:17 from_ffa: at any rate, if I run "v.pl p ~/workspace ffa_ch1_genesis.vpatch" I expect to find ffa alongside all other projects. not an empty workspace dir with ffa in it
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-10#1768658 << i don[' get it, can't afford a directory ? or expect the directory be provided ? or what is the actual issue here ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: BigTexasBingo: you might want to store the benjies in a sealing, smellproof container, i think they can smell'em
BigTexasBingo: Story later, but short is find a Dominican for language immersion and get introduced to the mother at a time I would call too soon if it wasn't how every chica seems to operate here ☟︎
from_ffa: at any rate, if I run "v.pl p ~/workspace ffa_ch1_genesis.vpatch" I expect to find ffa alongside all other projects. not an empty workspace dir with ffa in it ☟︎
from_ffa: I already did a few years back. and yes, the gpg key is at hand
Covale`: <knubie> Covale: Vote Oprah - I can´t :(
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno, what's the rush.
Covale: I wasn´t on IRC for years man
asciilifeform: what i mean is, several new faces, but wholly matching the pattern of 'i'ma decimation-style greek choir here, nobody will notice that i only post redditola, take no part in projects or actual discussion, etc'
Covale: I literally never thought of it until like 5 days ago...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ftr i think we're in the midst of a http://oglaf.com/humans for past wk or so
Covale: did that every now than. but I also read this earlier: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/why-bitcoin-is-worth-exactly-0-and-blockchain-might-be-very-valuable-2018-01-09?link=sfmw_fb
asciilifeform: i gotta point out that the cost-of-ownership for even a centibitcoin , is not 0 either
mircea_popescu: i think still is, but this particular network is more like technocuck than pure irc.
shinohai: I met one of the girls and all her hot friends! Though only one came back to participate iirc
shinohai: I'm still convinced there is some Romanian magic in that article
knubie: yeah, i noticed.. lol funny shit.. but i swear one of them looks so familiar
mircea_popescu: but, i guess all the 36yo suicides gotta come from SOMEWHERE.
shinohai: "Hello Caroline, since this useless token will fail just like the DAO and leave you unemployed, I was wondering if I might interest you in: http://trilema.com/2014/ill-pay-for-your-tits/ ? "
mircea_popescu: but i'm sure it's not fraudulent because http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-09#1767533 ☝︎
asciilifeform: there may have been other folx who shot themselves in the foot on similar scale, but i can't think of who other than the poles
mircea_popescu: but i dun think poland specifically.
asciilifeform: in that it is a resident infection in chump's head. rather than a 'nyahaha, i sold you a cutting board painted as ipad, and i'ma run faster than you can catch'
asciilifeform: i.e. every chump gets scammed for whatever pocket change he was going to spend on a flashlight that day
asciilifeform: not quite. ( i thought about discussion the difference in the orig chumpatron article, but cut it ) : there are , to borrow from algorithmics, 'linear' and 'superlinear' chumpatrons
asciilifeform: i thought that was a 'store yer password in this-here magic thumbdrive' thing.
asciilifeform: didn't somebody do a hardware shitcoin? i.e. 'you must buy THIS box...'? or did i dream it.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-09 01:02 mircea_popescu: i'm vaguely curious how useful this'd be, "article X includes 003/101/209/309/402/801/908 !"
shinohai: I wasn't here for those lulz was still in heathendom
asciilifeform: i recall it only from mircea_popescu's description.
asciilifeform: '...If I was to park 100 BCI coins for the entire duration of the round, and there were a total of 1000 BCI coins parked, then I would receive 10% of the interest pool...'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the 'gcc' fork of gnat isn't even a gnu product in the usual sense. as far as i can tell , it is made lock stock and barrel of the adacore gnat , but with some dr.mengele treatments
asciilifeform: the latter, in so far as i can tell, is ~complete rubbish
