danielpbarron: also, the links to the public log from s.b-a.link add an extra unnecessary '/' in the root directory
asciilifeform: 'Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work anymore as a result of this. The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is stored on disk, which earlier versions won’t support.'
danielpbarron: http://danielpbarron.com/v2.log.txt << it looks like the "version 2" thing got up to 5% of the hashrate and then dropped down to 1% over the course of the last week or so
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i prefer hammer time
asciilifeform: if phoundation does it - cure for cancer is bad thing.
asciilifeform: punkman: not bad thing if -we- do it
punkman: well v3 brings strict signature format, not such a bad thing

danielpbarron: bu-but.. the forum poll said it had 60% support!? how can this 1% be?
punkman: oh and they are already talking about version 4
danielpbarron: SetBestChain: 1 of last 100 blocks above version 2 << anyone else seeing this in their .bitcoin/debug.log ? does it have to do with 0.10 coming out?
kakobrekla: this takes us another step further away from a potential cross sync doesnt it
mike_c: i'd like to have unique constraint on fingerprint. maybe boot the offending nicks from the db?
mike_c: but there are.
mike_c: i want there not to be dupe keys.
mike_c: kakobrekla: did you have any thoughts/opinions on wot dupe key issue?
kakobrekla was jus trollin
jurov: nope. i'm certain i talked about it here before.
jurov: i didn't dare to find out just to keep a toy afloat
mike_c: jurov: but which way do they lean? to kick you or to tell complainer to piss off?
asciilifeform: but this is not a problem i have had the honour of having
jurov: aws will forward them to yo
asciilifeform: for that, fix is generally easy, host in .ru
mike_c: (not sure if aws would either on that count..)
asciilifeform: now that, didn't try
mike_c: did you get abuse reports? did they stand up to those?
asciilifeform: the sheer audacity of the industry bamboozlement virtually everywhere - is astonishing
mike_c: that too
mike_c: jurov is. and selling 1 to ascii, 1 to somebody else, etc.
jurov: and you're buying, like 10 of them?
mike_c: so if you resold x of them, you could charge $2 per hr / x.
mike_c: one-time not the right word. it's $2/hr if any, but not per-box.
jurov: btw, dedi aws is not one-time cost. they ask $2/hour if *any* is running in the region
jurov: at that price maybe a seat at my guerrilla home router.. but that one has only a celeron and main computer is too noisy to keep on all time
mike_c: and he'd buy that. he would still complain, but he'd pay.
mike_c: down the road, with a bit of scale, you could sell him dedicated instance without ruinous one-time cost aws imposes
asciilifeform: who has no safe way of converting so much as a bitcent to usd.
asciilifeform: i've said it at least thrice, and will say a fourth time - all s.nsa expenses that are denominated in usd have been de-facto fronted by yours truly
jurov: so you want me to sell him c3.something aws instance and lie to him it's physical?
mike_c: asciilifeform: so if you could get dedicated instance from jurovvps at non-ruinous cost this would be a good thing.
mike_c: listen to what they do, not what they say. marketing 101.
asciilifeform: mike_c: worse than this. 1) i'm paying 2) not getting terribly much, have ~5mil keys that have not been dumped in on account of - elementarily - lack of cpu
mike_c: customer's don't know what they want
mike_c: don't listen to what they say. he is paying them, obviously it's the best option right now.
asciilifeform: at no less than 30-50 usd/mo
jurov: if they know what they want, im not pressing it
asciilifeform: no lie there - i told everyone it's languishing on aws.
asciilifeform: would like to get off!
asciilifeform: to paraphrase the poet
asciilifeform: i do not want it in the zoo, ☟︎
mike_c: and the service is: computing power for btc
jurov: which service? if it's phuctor, i can imagine it relies on sole access to fast SSD storage.
mike_c: it won't be cheaper. for the same reasons.
mike_c: i am arguing that the service will be more reliable and easier to run on aws than colo rack.
jurov: oh you're arguing reliability? i missed that
mike_c: yes, i know. but i don't think you're disagreeing that colo will have lower reliability?
jurov: so, again, all but trivial stuff
mike_c: look at the trouble mpex has had over the years.
mike_c: if you buy a rack in a colo you'll never have the same kind of reliability
mike_c: but the difficulty of IaaS is why reselling aws makes sense to me.
mike_c: hm, that seems different. enterprise cloud management.
jurov: and lines below that
mike_c: recently? don't think so.
jurov: it's all but trivial
mike_c: and does all the time. and is replaced trivially
jurov: virtual hardware can eat shit too
mike_c: why? then when your actual hardware eats shit you're down.
asciilifeform: i would also like it to be a fucking -actual computer-
mike_c: (in the future)
mike_c: well, that's why jurov resells them.
jurov: they do hae "dedicated" instances, but i'm not pressing the point

asciilifeform: afaik no one is offering - or -has ever- offered these - for btc...
jurov: and back to topic, currently i'm about reselling aws stuff, that's a start. i know some trustworthy people here that do vpses, i'll ask them for cooperation
lobbes: jurov: thanks for the link. I got my own VPS to fuck up, though. ;)
jurov: https://web.archive.org/web/20140207213824/http://simpleshell.com/ << twas this. clicking on the button gave you real shell
lobbes: asciilifeform: unless i misunderstand, jurov isn't opening a clinic for the poor << Fair enough. Point taken
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: i'm simply used to seeing that phrase as shorthand for 'it's ok for me to utterly fuck this up, right, because results couldn't possibly be important, aha?' ☟︎
jurov: lobbes if you want, i can give you simpleshell.com to learn it's low maintenance, but also low profit
asciilifeform: but rather something that has to actually work...
asciilifeform: unless i misunderstand, jurov isn't opening a clinic for the poor
lobbes: Sounds like a cool learning opportunity though
lobbes: I wouldn't add much value, but I'd work for free as an extra set of hands/eyes. You'd still need someone that knew what they were doing, of course. Plus I wouldn't be available 24/7 so maybe I'd be no use lol
asciilifeform: call ft meade, they'll work for phree
mike_c: you could hire a service to handle tier 1 monitoring and wake you up if there's an emergency.
jurov: namworld is not with bitvps anymore, and they're imo pretty lame
jurov: i see this is serious and there's interest. but the last obstacle is i must do this together with someone, it needs someone on duty 24hrs
mircea_popescu: but then you gotta commit to make it a job. i think there's a pretty decent living in it, but whadda i know.
mircea_popescu: if you want, i can front you the capital to colo a few servers wherever you want, and work off that.
jurov: re: simpleshell.com everything in chroot was killed after 15 minutes, that's is quite a difference from permanent setup, and abuse reports were last blow
jurov: i have plenty experience with using VPSes, not with running them
mircea_popescu: you defo have enough experience to handle it.
jurov: btw, anyone needs sysadmin? some deals fell through
jurov: have to make some dough first, then i can finally fix it
