trinque: decimation: I probably understand more about redhat's stable
target
than your garden-variety redhat user because I've used gentoo for so long
decimation: as much as
they derp on shit,
they still do a decent job of delivering a platform
that is a stable
target
mircea_popescu: seriously, placing your hand
to block
the upside clearance of
the berzelius glass ?
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 18:06:34; ascii_field: i have no idea how anyone is able
to get serious work done outside of gentoo
shinohai: but, i couldn't resist a play on
the yeshiva
theme.
shinohai: i have jewish family. im not religious myself in any
traditional sense.
ascii_field: but
the butane example pertains
to hypothetical boy with access only
to 'typical u.s. household' garbage
mircea_popescu: not even. "cars going
the same place and cars being wheel
to wheel on
the road"
jurov: mircea_popescu: as long as
there are breathing/talking holes left...
ascii_field: the correct solution
to
the problem is physically shaped like
the above photo.
ascii_field: breadboards are also
terrible re: distortion.
ascii_field: (you can drop arbitrary dip into a dip-40 so long as it physically fits, and
the microcontroller knows what
to do)
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 17:45:18; jurov: ascii_field: you surely wouldn't want
to be on receiving side of it, coherent or not
ascii_field: (into 'zif' socket with mechanical lever,
too, avoid bending
the ancient pins
ascii_field: rom burner is
this
thing where you don't have
to. pull
the part # from db and drop in
the chip
ascii_field: have
to
tear it out, pull out pen, paper...
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it is monumentally retarded
to do whole day's work
to read back an 8k rom.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu ask
tsp i guess :D
ascii_field: in unrelated observation,
there exists (nor, afaik has ever existed) an eeprom burner with
true linux support.
☟︎ nubbins`: there's like $150 worth of concept sketches of you riding a horse and squinting at
the sun around here somewhere
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 15:38:37; nubbins`: is
this something you actually plan on doing, or is
this another instance of me wasting a bunch of
time generating a quote for something
that won't happen?
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 19:35:05; mircea_popescu:
there's no avoiding having
to do something
to limit
the derpage openssl can import into bitcoin
mircea_popescu: also iirc valid sigs
that are uncompliant can actually be fixed without resigining
mircea_popescu: there's no avoiding having
to do something
to limit
the derpage openssl can import into bitcoin
☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway,
this is
the
thing
trying
to fix
the signatures issue isn';t it ?
assbot: [Bitcoin-development] Miners: You'll (very likely) need
to upgrade your Bitcoin Core node soon
to support BIP66 ... (

fluffypony: Mary Antoinette sounds like a maid from
the farmlands
fluffypony: [19:59:12] <Relos>I can hear mary antoinette saying: "let
them eat cake"
trinque: "DNS seed changes: bitseed.xf2.org is removed as it no longer works, and seeds from Addy Yeow and Mike Hearn are (re)added
to increase seed diversity and redundancy." << LOL
trinque: clear intent
to frame
the blocksize
thing in
the context of a bunch of other (bullshit) progress!
trinque: their github readme
tries
to make it sound like it's not just about
the block size
jurov: what head banging
there?
mod6 goes back
to banging his head
jurov: end up at
the grub> prompt upon reboot << for example
this is you're 90%
there, use
the prompt
to find
the kernel and boot,
then reconfigure grub from
the running system
ascii_field: and i should point out
that in my mind gentoo is defined by ~absences~ of crud, rather
than specific attributes which are ~present~
mod6: luckally
trinque has been holdig my hand on all of
this.
mod6: but im positive
that i'd never get it configured correctly
to use uclibc and whatever other configurations are required
to even
test
this patch. even if I get
the patch
to work, how am I supposed
to get
this into such a state
that someone else can repeat it?
assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 18:19:28; mod6: i mean, i can't seem
to get anywhere with anything without major
time involved and serious pain.
mod6: <+nubbins`> you can't get a bash prompt? << for instance on my POS box
that I bought for $129.00 an x86_64 core2duo, I can't even install
the os. All i can do is boot
the livecd, do
the chroot stuff, and
then end up at
the grub> prompt upon reboot. when it comes
to my instance in AWS, i've had better luck, but doing stuff for me is so
time consuming. in
this case, i need
to get gcc recompiled with patches
to see if we can get past
this error we
jurov: mod6 if what you are doing is compiling C binaries,
then learning
to solve gentoo problems is unavoidable part of it
mod6: what i'm sayin is
this: without expert knowledge of how
to use gentoo, I can't do what needs
to be done in a reasonable amount of
time. everyting for me in
there is arduous, painstaking.
nubbins`: not sure why you shared
that, but hi
nubbins`: is it
too salty or is
there poop in it?
nubbins`: this is like
telling
the waiter your food
tastes un-good
mod6: naw, i have no preconceptions about anything. im
talking about using
this
thing.
jurov: maybe it just refuses
to fit your preconceptions
nubbins` takes a break from corporate income
tax forms
mod6: i mean, i can't seem
to get anywhere with anything without major
time involved and serious pain.
☟︎☟︎ nubbins`: gentoo was chosen, i believe, at
the behest of alf
nubbins`: iirc, *BSD is a completely other
type of retarded.
nubbins`: there was some discussion on
this
mod6: after 6 weeks, all
that I can conclude about gentoo is it's basically unuseable.
mod6: im still not sure why we're not
taking a hard look at openbsd
mod6: i need
to get back
to winning here. been losing
to gentoo for 6 weeks.
☟︎ jurov: mod6 what? you want insanely configurable stuff
that does not need figuring out? hah, pick one
☟︎ ascii_field: jurov: you can get a few dozen kW of
this on, e.g., 'ebay'
ascii_field: jurov:
the best known way
to combine power from multiple diode lasers is fiber. but
this only works for certain wavelengths where fiber works well.
mod6: you have
to pick it up and
then figure out all out. bzzzzt.
mod6: trinque says y, "to learn gentoo, you must have learned gentoo". which is
the
total
truth. you can't just pick
this
thing up and figure it out.
nubbins`: so i popped a brand-new piece of mesh
this morning
ascii_field: i have no idea how anyone is able
to get serious work done outside of gentoo
☟︎ mod6: and
the documentation is so bad, it's not even accurate, and makes assumptions about
the audience. smh.
jurov: so, in
the end, combining x diodes even if not coherent needs less energy
than one coherent
tube.
ascii_field: gentoo is a nightmare but
the non-gentoo world is an utter hell
mod6: gentoo has an ability
to allow you
to do an overlay .. but holy crap. gentoo is such a nightmare.
ascii_field: (serious co2 lasers also recirculate
the actual co2, rather
than keeping it in sealed pipe)
ascii_field: jurov: photo doesn't even include
the water pumps and chiller
jurov: see
the chunky power supply next
to it?
that's why
ascii_field: ir. so no one will be making 'sexy' films about
these.
ascii_field: at close range, i'd rather
take nagant bullet
than a bolt from arbalest (if decently constructed)
jurov: okay. so i'd combine different wavelengths diodes
then. still more easily
to obtain here
than nagant parts and ammo
nubbins`: same place it goes when
two people jump into opposite ends of pool
