decimation: speaking of which mircea_popescu: so you called it with
the debian GR re: systemd,
they 'voted'
to make init scripts 'optional'
assbot: Logged on 04-06-2014 00:08:26; asciilifeform: BingoBoingo:
the buggers'
traditional defense is
to pretend
that
the event was a non-event - or, if
this is impractical,
to continue living in an imaginary world where
they 'scooped'
the story first, and all of
the 'unsanctioned' discussion never happened.
decimation: yeah,
they seem like a good idea on
the surface, until one realizes
that it really saves no work over making a gigantic 'switch/case' statement
mod6: ah,
then
the last one looks like it only spiked above .4G briefly.
kakobrekla: but i
think
the
third was was 40k already
kakobrekla: most probably all
three spikes on daily are with 500000
decimation: asciilifeform: what do you
think about
the 'exception' mechanism in c++, python, etc?
To me it seems like a hack
to attempt
to account for
the shiftiness of system calls
kakobrekla: when you see
the green line at 1 gig is when i first
tried mps suggestion i
think
decimation: asciilifeform:
thus
the need for a programming language
that cares about such
things
kakobrekla: think about how well defined
the behaviour of
the moments prior
to leak death is < not really
kakobrekla: my net is poor here, waiting for an upgrade but im quite far from
the central and its just so much
they can do
kakobrekla: its also
true im running
this on a 512 remote instance
kakobrekla: what do you mean if i have
to restart it, i have
to restart it every 6 hours as it leaks blood
kakobrekla: i dont
think its db log autoremove, it was
there before stuck
mircea_popescu: set_flags DB_LOG_AUTOREMOVE << wow
that actually works ?
mircea_popescu: the only concerning point in all of
this is
that guy has a wife, and a house.
mircea_popescu: Remote Control solfware (i.e.
TeamViewer) does not belong on a computer where you may have browser windows open or important files."
mircea_popescu: "Ive been
thinking about all
the ways you could have found
the necessary passwords
to get into my computer and actually be using it overnight. None of
them
too easy. You put some pieces
together in a pretty clever way and worked around my many accounts with 2fa." << 2fa works.
mircea_popescu: mats_cd03: (on another note: if mp's ego explodes, and no one is around
to see it, did it really happen?) << i don't have an ego anymore. it couldn't keep up.
mircea_popescu: davout:deterministic behaviour,
too fucking mainstream <<< i didn't make
the internets!
decimation: if you live in
the us,
the electric company is owned by
the people anyway
mike_c: idk about
that. i don't own
the electric company, but i have plenty
to say
to
them.
decimation: and it is certainly
true
that
those who own nothing have anything
to say
to
those who do
decimation: it's
true
that nobody owns "the whole
thing" but
that doesn't mean
that it is "unowned"
PeterL: Like you said, you can own a small piece, but nobody owns
the whole
thing
decimation: sure, why not
toss out every law and
then split
the world into 81 equal squares each owned by 'the people'
PeterL: who owns
the Earth? Nobody
decimation: Google: "Q: who owns
the internet? A: nobody" << fuck you. if I have a router and a server, I 'own'
that piece of
the internet. Imagine some peasant showing up in
the court of Henry VIII claiming
that 'nobody owns'
the land under his hovel because
the list of owners is large
PeterL: yeah, one of
them, hence why I mentioned it along with Nephi as a Utah city
decimation: Moroni: isn't
that
the name of
the Mormon prophet guy
BingoBoingo: Fucking anglo
trash were
the people who mixed
the latin Negro with
the Dutch Nikker
to create a racial slur
BingoBoingo: Nikker is a perfectly valid way
to express frustration at a person's complete ignorance in Dutch befor ethe language was
tainted by acquiring
the UK in
the Orange revolution
PeterL: I still don't see
the significance of a city named Moroni?
BingoBoingo: Comoros has all of
the disadvantages of being east african, island, and 21st century majority muslim all bound into a single
turd
BingoBoingo: PeterL: Comoros is poorer
than liberia. Kuwait is paying Comoros
to give
these people passports, because... Why not?
PeterL: Is comoros politically connected
to kuwait?
BingoBoingo: PeterL: In
the context of Kuwait giving a bunch of its natives who are currently illegal immigrants citizenship in Comoros sure.
PeterL: does
that make it interesting?
BingoBoingo: PeterL:
The Moroni I spotted is in Comoros
PeterL: What's strange about Moroni? In Utah
they also have Bountiful and Nephi
nubbins`: i wanna start printing
the covers
tonight but i'm a bit intimidated :o
nubbins`: nah, not many required.
they'll be bound
tight and
then
the spines will be glued
to
the covers
BingoBoingo prolly should have splurged for
the Apple II GS
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Also at school auction in
the free bin
BingoBoingo: At
the
time my knowledge of
the internet was
that some how you can go from HTML
to porn according
to Newsweek
BingoBoingo: netbsd's cost was
too high in
the need
to know it existed at
the
time
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It's just another 80's unix. Just
this one is build for
the late 80's
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Nah,
the price of color is you don't get
the 6830 and ability
to run A/UX
BingoBoingo: I really don't know many computer vendors atm with compelling offerings other
than Ebay and surplus auctions
kakobrekla: throw it
though a closed one
then , i dont mind
devthedev: It's
too cold outside
to open
the window.
kakobrekla: devthedev even better: window.
throw out.
devthedev: BingoBoingo:
There's firmware password protection
BingoBoingo: Good news? Or neutral news because he was a bit
to drugged up
to be intelligible still.
danielpbarron: just got a call from xanthyos; he's out of surgery, and said
that his surgnesergen
devthedev: No, filtering on
this school issued Mac Book.
devthedev: kakobrekla: It's
the only one I can access.
BingoBoingo: Well, in encouraging news apparently
the value of a Mosin Nagant is still well under half a BTC
kakobrekla: next
time pick a image host with more ads
mircea_popescu: and obviously,
they would "prefer it" if it worked
the way
they want it
to work, rather
than
the way it actually works.
mircea_popescu: the problem with putting up an adult flag in a world of children is
that you get crowded by all
the kids
that are
trying
to mature but don't know how
mircea_popescu: nao someone
try exposing a hostmask and see if it still gets flooded.
mats_cd03: is disclosure of your knowledge of
the pwning such a good idea?
