mircea_popescu: kindawhy all the bruteforcing of wp blog admin pws.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is not news ?
asciilifeform: these idiots - don't deserve so much as the time of day.
BingoBoingo: And incredibly slow to get to the point of resembling anything, much less being anything https://www.freelists.org/post/haiku/Haiku-selfhosting
BingoBoingo: That too
asciilifeform: and minus the be.
asciilifeform: beos minus the ui or the commercial softs
BingoBoingo: Haiku >> BeOS resurrection attempt. Neverming that BeOS and the BeBox were Power PC
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: on top of that, x86-32 (yes) only
danielpbarron: i'm trying to buy a cd but it doesn't look like they sell one
danielpbarron: lol they take donations through coinbase
danielpbarron: https://www.haiku-os.org/about/faq#top_4 "Haiku is not a Linux distribution, nor does it use the Linux kernel." << is this worth looking into? I don't know much about it.
PeterL: what would you want to build in if you had a choice?
thestringpuller: don't think satoshi had a sense of smell for code or would have known he was building bricks from excrement
BingoBoingo: PeterL: Because it is what they get paid to use
thestringpuller: and as BingoBoingo just said, CPP standard lib is terrible
thestringpuller: you have to build it yourself or use another library
thestringpuller: no they aren't
thestringpuller: It would be amazing if mod6 and ben_vulpes could rip it out of the code completely
BingoBoingo: It exists because the CPP standard library sucks
thestringpuller: to add things like threads and other random bullshit
thestringpuller: ugh boost is annoying to get working if you don't have the exact version
danielpbarron: haha BingoBoingo i have a fan that i clip under my laptop to cool during compiles
mod6: *had to do
mod6: at least, that's what I had do to do.
mod6: but im using boost 1.55, and i think i need to be using 1.42 which is horribru to get working so far.
BingoBoingo: I'm at the firing in anger stage of quitting linux, so moving the tools I use to OpenBSD.
mod6: (having a linking problem related to this: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/v0.6.1/src/util.cpp#L14)
mod6: ah, well anyway, i'm pretty close to having v0.5.3.1 building on freebsd
BingoBoingo: mod6: I'm trying to Bitcoin-qt on BSD. Waiting until night when it's colder so I can compile in the garage so I have more thermal headroom. Unlike the linux I'd been using OpenBSD respects this machine's temperature sensors.
mod6: !up thestringpuller
mod6: BingoBoingo: you trying to v0.5.3 on BSD?

PeterL: !up thestringpuller
thestringpuller: ugh pulse audio needs to die
BingoBoingo: Digging through old porting efforts I get the feeling some linux settings use linux only functions in a pulse audio manner
ascii_field: BingoBoingo: if you want to build on bsd, set the ifdefs as if for mac
danielpbarron: http://www.mail-archive.com/bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net/msg07020.html "As such, the blockchain can never support All The Transactions, even
BingoBoingo: ^ Particular instance there was stock 0.5.3
BingoBoingo: Tried building some stock versions of bitcoin-qt on OpenBSD last night. Here's the tail end of the compiler output where the errors spring forth from: http://dpaste.com/2RDXRT1
mircea_popescu: this is the first time powerful people were involved in irc, since also 1996.
mircea_popescu: PeterL because the last tiem anyone thought about this it was 1996, and the next time anyone wil lthink about this it will be to systemdize it
PeterL: seems hard to believe this is the first time somebody used irc ip addresses to target attacks?
thestringpuller: i hit a netsplit and the second my ip was showing the router started showing a lot of traffic
thestringpuller: i got ddosed I think. AT&T claimed it was a power surge on their DNS server rack but that didn't make sense
thestringpuller: how is assets today?
cazalla: !up thestringpuller
mthreat: lowest temp was about -1 C. It's summer in antarctica.
ben_vulpes: but did you you know *make it* in the bucket list boat?
mthreat: <+mircea_popescu> o hey, how's the south pole ? << well technically we only got to just past 60 degrees south latitude, but it was cool. Lots of penguins, whales, killer whales, seals, ice, and mountains. And retirees, on the boat.
mircea_popescu: this tlp guy... i love him.
mircea_popescu: "Marching gets our message out." No it doesn't, it gets CNN's message out. "We don't watch CNN, we use the internet." Yet given the infinity of the internet you still surf the same 5 websites, looking for and finding exactly what you want, like a baby playing peekaboo in a mirror over and over and over and over and over and over and...
pete_dushenski: because no city mayor/police/etc can very well stand in the way of the leaders of the free world
mircea_popescu: which yes, it has to happen, because most "major cities" are inhabited by... twits.
pete_dushenski: and that #b-a badges and #b-a plates will roam the streets freely
mircea_popescu: in the sense of "no cars for you"
pete_dushenski: well imagine that there will be "no car" rules in most major cities in 20 years
mircea_popescu: i will not be ok with a "no cars" town in which the fucking mayor/police/you get to drive if you feel like
mircea_popescu: except this is a naked problem of power. i would be ok with a "no cars" town in which i personally can drive if i feel like.
pete_dushenski: which is reasonable given that in 20 years the serene republic will own it as a summer resort ;)
pete_dushenski: and it aims to be car-free in the city centre... by 2034
mircea_popescu: i don't need to be jostled just because sopme other fuckhead can't drive at his speed.
pete_dushenski: as to whether this works in the populated arctic... i dunno
mircea_popescu: like the fucking speed bumps.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes that's the wrong approach imo.
pete_dushenski: iirc there was a german city that was going to all-out ban cars in the city centre
ben_vulpes: for all that it's a communist paradise, portland does get this right. lots of super annoying stop lights on major thoroughfares throughout the east side.
pete_dushenski: lol well the thing drinks like 30L/100km so that's a lot of (indirect) slave labour from the oil sands up north
pete_dushenski: no cars in town is a perfectly sensible idea in most parts of the world
pete_dushenski: well i'm hardly going to disagree that everyone getting something "just as good" makes the whole lot of us worse off
ben_vulpes: see previous thread about "wake me when compute costs 1btc/hr".
ben_vulpes: and yes, the "computer" as a modern invention (from the c machine on forwards to the consumer laptop) is an entirely awful fork in the technological roadmap.
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: well i exaggerate for btclulz. clearly *you* are deserving of your mercs and what have you, but the state of every pleb in their own plastic wheelbox has got to go.
mircea_popescu: but the grandfather was you know, "peccavi"
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski right. those twits ? their dad was nobody, some anon derp with, as orwell put it, "Well-meaning, over-civilized men, in dark suits and black felt hats, with neatly rolled umbrellas crooked over the left forearm, were imposing their constipated view of life"
ben_vulpes: roads themselves aren't expensive, nor the maintenance thereof but rather the wear and tear from 2-ton tardboxes
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: that's like saying "the car is a horrid invention because i don't like windoze"
ben_vulpes: they're brutal on the roads.
ben_vulpes: especially in the mass production everyone having one.
mircea_popescu: "no cars in town" is not a bad idea.
pete_dushenski having a laugh watching "twit of the year"
pete_dushenski: the weather will do that
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's a great place, but the people are inept to a degree that can not even be put into words. doesn't even look like a year's famine would be enough, more biblical measures required, 30 years in the desert, stuff like that.
pete_dushenski: mebbe that's why kakkes left.
pete_dushenski: but hey, these days, who is ?
pete_dushenski: other than thumbing their nose at teh american judges, they don't seem to be thriving
pete_dushenski: hm. not sure that anyone is giving the 'tines much in the way of odds these days
mircea_popescu: argentina is set for a much more major collapse than anyone seems to realise.
mircea_popescu: they kinda get a very superficial formal thing about granpa, but otherwise the head dun work.
mircea_popescu: their grandparents were pretty cool. their parents rather mediocre. now they're fucked in the head.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski basically what i see is a cargo cult generation. if you've ever seen monty python's twit of the year sketch that's basiclaly the idea.
mircea_popescu: <mthreat> np << o hey, how's the south pole ?
pete_dushenski: when was their last king ?
pete_dushenski: cut them some slack eh
mircea_popescu: i have no words to describe how derpy argentines are.
pete_dushenski: ^not going to be helped by moar efficiency
pete_dushenski: "France’s Total plans to cut 2,000 jobs, sell assets after big loss in oil markets"
pete_dushenski: i pushed panks over the edge, didn't i
