asciilifeform: or do i gotta recompute from the available #s
asciilifeform: i am making a wwwistic calculator thing, ben_vulpes ; do you have the price table (usd) and current # of subscribers for each type, handy ?
asciilifeform: the answer to this q doesn't really affect the most interesting numbers in the report tho.
asciilifeform: ok then i dun get it : from the equation it would seem that the , e.g., 36 colo, means 'if nothing else existed, 36 colos would be needed, at current price, to add up to $burn'
asciilifeform: ( it still boggles my mind that anybody, at any point, ever thought that creating an arithmetron that outputs answers which are at variance with kindergarten/napkin, is somehow acceptable )
asciilifeform: phf: any idea how to make it ditch the whole machinefloat nonsense in favour of troo arithmetic ?
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i expect mechanical-disk nodes will fall behind again if usg 'stress test of blocks' were to resume.
asciilifeform: you can click on an item and 'add to cart' and 19 times out of 20 will get simple eggog when 'ship to $bbaddr'
asciilifeform: for some reason there is no public list or anything of the sort.
asciilifeform: ( trick was, only some % of subcontractors of shitazon, will ship abroad, had to find via brute force, which ones )
asciilifeform: ^ claims delivery guarantee of may the 7th. if this worx, then it is a viable means of getting (small/inexpensive) items into BingoBoingo's orbit.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what i really ought to do, arguably, is look'em up and retro-diddle the Framedragger keys' userstrings in the db . ~however~ this would change their hash ! and break all the old links.
asciilifeform: mod6: i'ma put ' to be very concrete! with mod6 ! ' on my chalkboard
asciilifeform: supposedly, for low 5fig one can even purchase outright a building in that town.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: your figure is approx correct, based on various 'find a flat' www that BingoBoingo had found.
asciilifeform: mod6: BingoBoingo devoted a great deal of space to the subj in own www and in the logs, i assumed , imho justifiably, that you knew.
asciilifeform: !Q later tell mircea_popescu i realized nao that if i fire up the thing as described, we won't have the hostnames. they are are (currently) trinque-produced.☟︎
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: plox to describe, for edification of mod6 , the exact procedure.
asciilifeform: mod6: theoretically i 'shouldn't have to' lug 100kg of iron in a cart across 2 continents, but sometimes gotta do things 'shouldn't have to', lol
asciilifeform: and i will personally concretize ( and perhaps be corrected by others, but at any rate will try )
asciilifeform: mod6: feel entirely free to say, whenever you must, 'this makes 0 sense, gotta concretize'
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: as soon as he coughs up the april statement ( containing, recall,actual revenue ) i will insist on a discussion of concrete plan to get BingoBoingo into proper flat and into non-itemized regular swap of pants.
asciilifeform: as for numbers, ben_vulpes are you still missing anything ? to make the end-of-april report
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: how close is the magic personhood card with which to incorporate ?
asciilifeform: can't let the delish iron, go to waste.
asciilifeform took the expected day or 2 of pause, chance, to run fermat
asciilifeform: ( thus far reported just the same 2 outputs as in summer of '16 )
