asciilifeform: and this is true of pretty much any box that makes decent trb node (i.e. has sata3 + ssd ) ☟︎

asciilifeform: mod6: i elementarily don't have the time.
asciilifeform: motherfucker. i dun even USE usb3 for anything.
asciilifeform: i want centos out of my house.
asciilifeform: i'll point out that this was the fiddybux 'celeron' box that beat the living shit out of $maxint dulap : strictly on account of having ssd
asciilifeform: i dun even pin this on the netbsd people, they are the dangling corpse in the relationship with wintel ☟︎
mod6: I did run into this once before with someone else, can't remember whom. But yeah, some default install of $linux that doesn't come with anything.
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> edivad: what kind of system are you building trb on that shipped without `patch`? << this is the same thing I said.
ben_vulpes: yeah i been watching
lobbes: I.e. the "<a href=http://logs.minigame.bz/2017-08-04.log.html>s</a>.</li>."
lobbes: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/TGHNG/?raw=true << Even though I closed my account ages ago, still get Buttbase emails. Just received his lovely gem of SFYL lulz
asciilifeform: ( slightly less than double of what the comp i am sitting on now, eats )
asciilifeform: as for weight, original bolix was doublefridge size. the 3620 (what i have here) was paraded when debuted by the ceo hand carried on a stage in front of audience, 'only 100 pounds!'
mircea_popescu: i'm not faulting them for it ; but the matter remains. 100kg and 5KW/h for the battery-powered fpga ? aww!
asciilifeform: ( and that's the global clock net max, rather than 'hey i can make a pentium pro'. LUT delay is 10ns+ iirc )
asciilifeform: ( though admittedly i do not know the conditions which determine when )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suppose exceptions could be found. but take constructions (architects + actual builders). exceptions could there also be found, but THE OTHER WAY.
asciilifeform: point ( and i stole it from naggum, it is neither original to me nor to him ) is that most folx know better than to operate on their friends' internals
mircea_popescu: which is the sad point that i am constrained to make against my will : there's a good fucking reason for tivoization.
asciilifeform: i recently saw a truck painted with ad, 'we are the plumber who will fix the pipe your husband 'fixed' '
mircea_popescu: i would guess < 0.01% of general pop could do this at all.
asciilifeform: incidentally for some reason i remember kako bragging about his 'data diode' thing, apparently it was his crowning techno-achievement
asciilifeform: a trial with toslink is in the worx but omfg i have too few hands and infinite work
asciilifeform: and it ain't a 'cable too short' either -- i used a 4-metre fiber
asciilifeform: but currently i have nfi who -- if anyone -- makes a better one pcb-mounted visible-light one. that module is ubiquitous.
asciilifeform: btw that laser was a bit wonky, i hesitate to recommend it : it would overpower the receiver if the fiber were actually screwed in all the way 'to the hilt', and barf
asciilifeform: (i.e. made no diff, in a lab setting, whether power source was pc (mine is on isolated mains however) or batt )
asciilifeform: exactly same , as far as i can tell, as no box.
asciilifeform: btw i have 20GB or so out of that thing
asciilifeform: i used to make field-expedient photoisolators from diode+photocell+heatshrinkhose
asciilifeform: ( nao if i knew where i buried my serial-to-irda box from 1990s! )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ir i/o is not so bad to have. no need to crt/print and gun anymore, just use an ir diode system.
asciilifeform: this is a 20bux board that gives fullspeed usb , lamps, ir i/o (why -- idk ) and various else.
asciilifeform: i since tested the j1forth thing on same board. builds, runs.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-04#1693840 << i didn't fucking know. explain plox! starting with https://keybase.io/images/tracking/maria_twitter.jpg perhaps. so what was it, mircea_popescu = m1rcea_p0pescu ? and what else, 6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452 = 2FB7B452 = ae1be204f735a3ff19160b68dcf5b06d2FB7B452 ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: has ftdi thing for usb i/o as well as programming.
asciilifeform: ( not even substantially slower than xilinx chain. though i have currently nfi re output quality in re path delays )
asciilifeform: i did finally get http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-04#1693606 going . had to edit makefile and ENABLE_TCL := 0 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: " Our goal: smack-dab in the middle of a public Reddit or HackerNews or Twitter conversation, you should be able to say "Hey, I threw those gifs/libraries/whatever in our encrypted keybase folder" without ever asking for more identifying info. If that person hasn't installed Keybase yet, your human work is still done. They can join and access the data within seconds, and your device will quietly handle the verification and re
mircea_popescu: no, the one with the "and i'll fix your ticket too" @ his daughter.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i saw transgenderfucked beggars, expelled from 'art school', on the pavement. << And when they die during the winter they will still vote Pantsuit. It's what Chicago does. Along with it's downstate mestatasis Belleville and East Saint Louis.
asciilifeform: i suppose from humane pov they oughta be put out of their misery, but rockets cost money and i can't picture anyone will ever spare one for them.
asciilifeform: i saw transgenderfucked beggars, expelled from 'art school', on the pavement.
asciilifeform: i go there on bizbis sometimes. into a mostly empty soot-coloured skyscraper.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-04#1693758 << i've never lived in the city walls proper; or outside of thermonuke fire zone either ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i'd guess already peaked, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: anyway, polarised light correct solution i imagine.
mircea_popescu: contact, i expect
a111: Logged on 2014-03-15 00:01 cads: hmm, I need a near effect sensor that can give me a reading of 3d printing surface quality.
mircea_popescu: discourage orcs. i see it.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i have nfi what all this is about. pick up hand cutter, make a straight cut in the item, remove with plain screwdriver.
asciilifeform: fwiw i bought tires not long ago, and they had to ask for the magic adapter. apparently not kept in shop as a routine item.
mircea_popescu: i fell over.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, nobody wanted to http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-26#1690125 ?! i am amazed! ☝︎
asciilifeform: i have nfi why even have this caltrop, who the fuck steals wheels, outside of shitafrica
mircea_popescu: i don't get it, how is it not legal to buy a fucking tool ?!
asciilifeform: i think i have one of these ...
ben_vulpes: all i know is that hardware drm has arrived at the fucking wheels
ben_vulpes: i'll lose my ase accreditation
ben_vulpes: in other holyshit do i live in drmistan: "call every single person i know to see if i can borrow one (locking lug nut removal tool), and the universal response is 'lol it's not legal for us to sell you one, much less lend them out'"
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron re " I'm not looking forward to learning how to get data out of a mysql database located on the hard drive of a system that doesn't boot anymore." : generally you can find mysql's data files in /var/lib/mysql/[database_name]. there's going to be in that dir a .myi and a .myd for each table in your db. if you simply create the old db in the new place and copy them over it'll prolly work. if not, you'll have to co
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> tbh i very much like the danielpbarron write-up style of "this is how to do x ; if you're lazy i'll do it for you costs this much". << Second
a111: Logged on 2014-03-15 15:10 mircea_popescu: "For those persons whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render those measures ineffectual. I therefore determine that for these measures to be effective
asciilifeform: i must've missed.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you recall, whgen i was trying to get ben_vulpes to collect a bus'worth of local sluts and go throw an unauthorized party around those people the usg was trying to drive off their land ? ☟︎
asciilifeform: where do i attend the demonstration in favour of usa losing alaska ?
asciilifeform: draws, i suppose, on the output end, fancy wall chart of terrorist connectionz in the ministry of lulz break room.
mircea_popescu: possibly trying to get nick list i guess.
mircea_popescu: "who knows where this car will take us, johnny!" "not me. i'm driving it."
mircea_popescu: o nm i found it.
asciilifeform: tcl , as i understand, caught the plague many years ago. this must be the 7th or 8th popular proggy that none of asciilifeform's boxes will build, purely on account of tcl rot.
shinohai: I didn't get kb so I take it they at least tolerated.
shinohai: I went in that chan and spammed tit art, befitting my station
mod6: cocksuckers, if i can't use it with lynx, do not want to use it.
shinohai: (Until Roger/ViaBTC budget runs out I guess)
mircea_popescu: anyway, as best i can see for the past coupla hours bcc hash is actually 0.
shinohai: I'd be surprised if anyone does, considering diff retarget will take a few months to make it have 10 min blox
shinohai: trinque: I did, twas first few hours after their "fork" ... afaik still no actual > 1 mb block mined.
asciilifeform: trinque: i'd think their blocks would be rejected in the intake hopper, for being 2MB ?
trinque: not that I've looked into wtf "bitcoin crash" transactions look like, distinct from trb transactions, but that'd perhaps explain it.
mircea_popescu: i thought the guy fixed wannacry. did he make wannacry ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if we're discussing zimbabwestan i am stuck describing its witchcraft statute.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i care what usg thinks its laws are about as much as i think what fat girl thinks her reasons for eating are.
mircea_popescu: tbh i very much like the danielpbarron write-up style of "this is how to do x ; if you're lazy i'll do it for you costs this much".
mircea_popescu: yeah, notbad film. anyway. al siding was always a scam, but that's not what i thought you meant by foil.
asciilifeform: i remain skeptical that they did not substitute in something equally objectionable.
asciilifeform: and i dun care re vibration.
phf: i mean, i figured it's ~not~ the question of weight, obviously
phf: that's how the heatsink is attached to the surface, but i wasn't sure if it can handle the fan vibration
asciilifeform: i use it everywhere.
asciilifeform: only theory i can think of is he did not want to 'spoil' his 'rembrandt' with 'non-period' grease and hs
phf: relatedly i couldn't figure out how to attach the fan to the board without drilling into it. there's like two possible mount points, but requires machining a custom brace
phf: not even fan, heatsink, and i also have no idea
mircea_popescu: the macro photos i like.
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-03#1693423 << i believe man's solution was to buy another $7k xl12xx. otherwise the website is distinguished by macro photos of symbolics boards and retellings in own words of Document Examiner material (which is also available in printed form, in before asciilifeform's "i have the whole printed set") ☝︎
trinque: in order for a log of OTPs to be meaningful, in that it asserts a particular person assented to an action at a given time, gotta know the OTP corresponds to the item sent to that person. the way I've been thinking about that is encrypting the OTP with two keys, one of which I hold; the other belonging to the outside party
mircea_popescu: or maybe i'm not understanding the problem ?
asciilifeform: i have nfi what that fella smokes
