asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: here's an unassigned gun for some eager fella: crap out an ibmpc buildroot for therealbitcoin. as in, something one could throw in the iso slot at a datacentre
pete_dushenski: pick a gun, pick a post ? not familiar with this one
pete_dushenski: and i have no qualms with reacting to circumstance, i'm more getting at : what's to be done with unassigned functions
asciilifeform: turned out, the 'fold your own' thing resulted in too many (from pov of command) splats.
mircea_popescu: i think most everyone's using github or w/e - but it wouldn't maybe be such a bad idea to start putting deeds out with the code bundles. with instructions. "run this so and so"
asciilifeform: phun phakt: my father was conscripted into a parachutist regiment. and by that time (late '60s) schmucks were no longer! permitted to fold their own.
mircea_popescu: other than that, published code is a good idea, sure. but also - anything is its maker property, and the people in question makin things can best decide what to do with it.
mircea_popescu: which is why gi joe is so useless in the field.
mircea_popescu: if it made sense to not be thus, you couldn't be, ~COULD NOT BE~ a guerilla if you wanted to
asciilifeform: of course folks often forget the other thing about the parachute thing - in sov army, they usedta make you sign it, 'i folded this parachute myself. signed, pvt. schmuck'
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, there is great benefit to being antipattern countercultural when being a guerilla.
mircea_popescu: this of course is painful for every good white boy to hear, as it's strictly antipattern and countercultural,
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i have nfi what you're proposing, but my thinking is that it's more expensive and less productive to think proactively rather than reactively.
mircea_popescu: there is a "no undies - i wanna be able to fondle your cunt" rule, but s'about all.
mircea_popescu: at some point travelling i was like "fuck it, WHO CARES what time they thinkg it is."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's a wonder i even managed to make the conference at all. i haven't had a watch or aty allcared about time in a decade.
asciilifeform: or buried alive with the thing
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ahaha if it turns out this was actually written by poor ms indian slavebois, who kept anon simply because of the draconing IP contracts thery had signed...
asciilifeform: and i don't have a clock (other than emacs clock) in the room either
assbot: Logged on 27-06-2015 19:04:04; asciilifeform: except that sometimes forget to wake up
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-06-2015#1179126 << i have them too, the result is that i sometimes forget to sleep./ ☝︎
asciilifeform: not even sure what there is to ~like~ in the design
mircea_popescu: wasn't trying to write policy, just bemoan existing insanity.
asciilifeform: anything short of that is waste of time
scoopbot_revived: A second crack at that scary thing. http://www.contravex.com/2015/06/27/a-second-crack-at-that-scary-thing/
mircea_popescu: this without going into why the wallet.dat, after being plaintext for a coupla years, was only half-ass encryupted.
asciilifeform: wallet has to be sawn off as discussed in the past
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform btw in the spirit of the "connect" issue : having public and private data separate is iirc not supported STILL. you gotta keep the wallet.dat in same place you keep the blockchain. gold help you if you want it encrypted.
jurov: it ran for months till hour and half ago
mircea_popescu: as an absolute prerequisite to any sort of block increase we ABSOLUTELY MUST clean up these shit-stables
mircea_popescu: jurov so wait, is this your 0.10 that was working ok ?
assbot: Smallest 80x25 PC display for less than $20 and other tiny screens ... ( http://bit.ly/1LuZkLq )
jurov: 2015-06-27 19:30:42 ERROR: AcceptToMemoryPool : nonstandard transaction: dust
mircea_popescu: something to the tune of 30ish connections, which seems reasonable for a day old peer.
mircea_popescu: the advertised seeder has been working more or less ok - it's not being attacked more than is implicit in the protocol lol.
mircea_popescu: this is an unadvertised test run of various releases.
asciilifeform: (if you like thinking about scary dangerous forkz, picture changing this!)
asciilifeform: there's precisely 1 thread that does actual werk
mircea_popescu: it's from teh future.
mircea_popescu: the cpu utilization is actually low, but the load is immense because i dunno wtf it does but something stupid.
asciilifeform: (yes, they're all porcine, but which hog? the little piglet, the muscular european boar, or the half-tonne monster fucked on midwest usa farms ..?)
mircea_popescu: we fucking forget. omfg the thing... no wonder nobody runs it. i doubt very much it can be run. like, at all.
asciilifeform: see, i'm one of those weirdos who keeps, for instance, a computerized vacuum cleaner
mircea_popescu: fuck that.
asciilifeform: whatever happened to the dark future of robot slaves
mircea_popescu: jurov i suspect trhat is the correct approach : add to the header space.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-06-2015#1179112 << don't be a noob. dishes are merely the expansion of an invisible slave empire. if you have jets you better have slave hands to go to the farmer market, and to fill the dishes, anbd to wash the dishes. ☝︎
jurov: well. i am sending hashes in headers too, but getting anyone to use them...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 500 buys a doghouse here. don't even want to imagine what it buys on west coast usa
mircea_popescu: i'd have so much trouble paying more than 4, maaaaybe 500 bucks for something like that....
mircea_popescu: assbot: Unwind Better on the Balcony of This 1BR/1BA Apartment Today! <<< ahahaha omfg.
asciilifeform: jurov: you were quite right, it won't do, and i oughta have remembered this factoid
jurov: btw, have you seen my conclusion that gpg signature does not contain anything useful?
mircea_popescu: what's the actual ux case for shortening it.
mircea_popescu: not like anyone types those by hand or tries to memorize them jurov
assbot: Logged on 27-06-2015 20:07:59; jurov: asciilifeform stuff like this would deserve link shortener http://nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/F23D7F58ABF380DED38B90B7A863487995DE825B7123B745156A8C49D63469DE#6A592C27FA423D7611456BE2AB693337463EA07754CAA07957D6AFCFA63984E2
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-06-2015#1179158 << it's a hash. and chopping hashes is quite possibly how we ended up on planet with phuctorable keys in the first place! ☝︎
mircea_popescu: Trustcenter_EU <trust@mch.sbs.de>; among the lulziest.

gribble: Error: Failure to retrieve ticker. Try again later.

mats: they prefer the term 'space pods'

asciilifeform: got those here, works great
jurov: and i do use them to have darkness like in coffin :D
jurov: when i got a window fixed some months ago, asked them to add external blinds
asciilifeform: well yes. sleep in coffin, then get up, pub.
jurov: i see... but i kinda like to get served and meet neighbors in that pub
asciilifeform: open vault, squeeze in, sleep (or watch movies on the little screen)
asciilifeform: looks sorta like the multi-'resident' mausoleums in b-a cemetery
asciilifeform: jurov: the bleeding edge of this, as i understand, is jp, where you can live in a kind of 'coffin'
asciilifeform used to do that
jurov: and since there's pub with good food and kebap around the corner...
jurov: lol i do. but nothing that can't be washed in 5 minutes
jurov: as it happens... i have no dishwasher, too
asciilifeform: yes, you can live there...
asciilifeform: sorta like having no toilet
asciilifeform: (pestilentially common problem where i live, on the other coast, also)

assbot: Logged on 06-04-2014 14:59:26; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ok. considering the what/how debate as accepted foundation : at any time there's a number of turkeys and a number of engineers.
asciilifeform: but yes, if the show were realistic they would spend most of each episode in traffic
mats: i refer to kid being promoted beyond competence who buys yacht
asciilifeform: l0l the folks in 'silicon valley' live in a flophouse
mats: you won't get the lifestyle seen on HBO's Silicon Valley but it is workable
asciilifeform: mats: so how do you explain the astronomical real estate near the sv gas giants ?
asciilifeform: mats: if you're willing to spend half the day in a car
mats: its really not that much for housing
asciilifeform: mats: many of the arguments against 'google dorm' don't hold water. e.g., the current 'collect 200k/y salary, give 180k/y to housing racket' system is just as impoverishing; 'lose your job, lose your housing' is just as true now for the fools paying those 180k to live in auto range of palo alto etc.; the squalor is just the same in the palo alto 'efficiency' flat as in any dorm; and so forth
