jurov: yest everything i found was tiny
danielpbarron: yeah, last night and today
jurov: danielpbarron: today?
danielpbarron: i must be close to being able to make something useful. I've been scoring claims that yeild 100+ items
jurov: only bandar toolkit is something that i can both make and have sense to have blessed
trinque: ascii_field: thanks for the link to pcengines; very interesting to me for a variety of uses ☟︎
shinohai: I'm good then. its running so meh
mircea_popescu: seeing how what version you run is a political choice more than a technological one, accepting dissent is -ev for your own affairs.
mircea_popescu: i see no problem with simply nullrouting all "xt nodes", and for that matter the general practice is to block any node that advertises a version different from your own.
mircea_popescu: shinohai nothing prevents you from ignoring any node. this is how people deal with hooligans, it's been a thing since forever.
shinohai: there are only a few hundred ip's if that
trinque: shinohai: sounds like a patch to bitcoind
trinque wonders if pf could accomplish that
shinohai: thiswould be better when i arrive home, irc on phone is terrible
shinohai: suppoae i wish to ignore xt nodes by default ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 31-05-2015 21:23:54; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149116 << i tried various values of 'misbehave' increment per orphan block - 20, 50, even 100. in my tests, this made sync... slower. reason, as i understand, was that 1) you lose time renegotiating connection 2) overwhelmingly likely that any node you reconnect to -also- shits just as many orphans.
mats: ask your question, don't ask to ask
shinohai: is there anyone here that is a btc .conf wiz ?
mircea_popescu: and yes prolly the shader's involved because clipping and flicking
ascii_field: does the thing use shader /
mircea_popescu: i just said it happened on ubuntu to dispel the theory it'd be windows specific, it's not
mircea_popescu: it happens across the board, not just ubuntu
decimation: the probability that someone derps with ubuntu AND can find root causes of closed driver failures strikes me as low
mircea_popescu: "it alwas looks like this when X"
mircea_popescu: so far i'm waiting for someone with experience to go "oh! well of course!"
ascii_field: see also the fpga threads.
ascii_field: decimation: that gets you ~one particular chip~
ascii_field: which camel? the one who walks through the eye of a needle ?
mircea_popescu: for now i want the camel.
ascii_field: burn nvidia. (amd at least shows remorse, published gpu specs for a megatonne of cards, and ~no one has done anything with them~)
mircea_popescu: stirctly, strictly that. i don't aim to run a university, i aim to run a decimation service.
mircea_popescu: i am here to burn things
mircea_popescu: im not here to fix anything
mircea_popescu: i don't give a shit about that
mircea_popescu: that's all i care to know : what portion of the spec is not implemented correctly.
ascii_field: where it turns into actual gpu instructions
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 21:49:40; mircea_popescu: anyway, i was looking for a why more in the form of IdiotCamelCaseFunctionOfDoomNotImplementedRevertsToSoftwareEmulation
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-06-2015#1162751 << that is precisely what you're experiencing, but the source is not public. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: which is exactly in line of what trinque was saying
mircea_popescu: but next s.mg report is going to contain list of functional gpus.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field not that i could discern so far.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i was looking for a why more in the form of IdiotCamelCaseFunctionOfDoomNotImplementedRevertsToSoftwareEmulation ☟︎
ascii_field: any common factors between the unhappy cards ?
mircea_popescu: i dunno man, i get 60 fps constant on that thing.
ascii_field: problem exists at the two remaining gpu makers.
ascii_field: so it pulls on the ropes.
ascii_field: (they wish to have their 'directx' turd in universal, mandatory use)
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i can tell you now, why
assbot: Labor Dept. plans H-1B probe -- one that could have an impact | Computerworld ... ( http://bit.ly/1QTosuE )
ascii_field: aha, i have this.
mats: i've not seen that before
ascii_field: http://www.erikyyy.de/tempest << the classic one ☟︎
assbot: Analog and Digital TV (DVB-T) Signal Generation ... ( http://bit.ly/1JL3I9u )
ascii_field: mats: http://bellard.org/dvbt << can even transmit digital tv !
trinque: to them
ascii_field: you can stuff generic kernel in there
mats: fun fact (unapproved by the FCC): the VGA is a decent TX-only SDR.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing better than beingpriviledged.
mircea_popescu: wtf is with this bullshit. the only thing better than being privileged is being hm
mircea_popescu: all these social media derps saying "privilege" like it's a bad thing ?!
ascii_field: even brings the spi eeprom where bios is out to pin headers, for ease of reflashing/readback
ascii_field: (that is, nothing obviously and profanely turdalicious on them)
ascii_field: in as far as x86-64 goes, these boards are surprisingly good.
ascii_field: ('corebios' aka linuxbios ships with a simple dos-compat. layer that will boot winblows if you must)
ascii_field: finds the onboard vga (with no output) even.
trinque: I see this as a box with which to connect to the wotnet, things like that
trinque: but what's the goal
decimation: good luck getting winblow to boot
ascii_field: (this is another reason why the shitgnomatic 'replacements' for x11 are nonsensical. if i can't get EXACT same experience through a net connection to the machine without idiocies like 'sharing desktop', the gui is WORHTLESS)
ascii_field: has 3 x 1G ethernet. can tunnel x11 out of it with no palpable delay
decimation: or use another computer for terminal
trinque: heh combine this guy with the terminal I think decimation picked up
ascii_field: (most frustrating thing is that the amd chip on this board ~has vga~ built in. but no amp on the pcb and no connector.)
ascii_field: you can tunnel x11 out of it if you insist.
ascii_field: (i tried the mpcie slots with various vga cards. no go.)
trinque: not so bad to be headless
ascii_field: nor is there any obvious means to add one
ascii_field: http://www.pcengines.ch/apu.htm << i've been using these for various x86y things
trinque goes to find a plow
trinque: if you want a machine that does exactly and only and none other than what's in some specification, lol
trinque: ascii_field: it's obvious I'm saying that picking hardware which is known in advance to boot gentoo
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 21:30:09; decimation: has closed bios, but that's going to be neigh impossible to avoid on x86
decimation: trinque: they are quiet
trinque: trinque | yeah, well... it's not going to be a lisp machine either
ascii_field: i know of no such thing
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 21:26:36; trinque: mod6: this is why I think a standard set of relatively cheap hardware is called in the default build
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-06-2015#1162636 << where to get 'standard hardware' ? ☝︎
trinque: decimation: I like these tiny cuboid cases
trinque: yeah, well... it's not going to be a lisp machine either
decimation: has closed bios, but that's going to be neigh impossible to avoid on x86 ☟︎
decimation: trinque: one idea is the 'hp microserver' gen 7
mircea_popescu: Do you hate slimfat people? I'm not visible fat if you see my with a shirt, but I'm out of shape when you see me without it, I have the hips of a woman.
mircea_popescu: i am all for this.
mircea_popescu: trinque moreover, the value of an "approved hardware list" should be obvious.
decimation: agreed, since they can't explain what they actually do (see ascii's point), they gotta be all conspiratorial
mircea_popescu: cazalla well you can but you dun have to
mircea_popescu: as their original bs is very hard to sell in the current political climate.
mircea_popescu: decimation honestly, that particular mob reads a lot to me like the people claiming the "auto industry" is "supressing the water engine" trying to jump ship
trinque: mod6: this is why I think a standard set of relatively cheap hardware is called in the default build ☟︎
mircea_popescu: "doc, i dunno what to do... i feel like a chicken trapped in a turkey's body"
