asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: actually i ran warez servers just fine on shitcast

asciilifeform: ( ftr i did try cl-vecto, and barfed. why do i have to touch absolute coord ?! )

asciilifeform: i expect the pill will look like hendersonized postscript, rather than svg idiocy.

asciilifeform: no moar than uuencoded crapola

asciilifeform: pnm ain't ascii tho.

asciilifeform: lol

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: anything with nonrightangles in it

asciilifeform: fortunately there is nothing nontrivial in ffa.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: turns out, quite painful for anything nontrivial

asciilifeform: trinque: sorta-usable-off-the-shelf gentoo on the classical www , is living its final days.

asciilifeform: indeed

asciilifeform: who wants -- can go and make it.

asciilifeform: but eventually 'fuckit'

asciilifeform: i even pulled ye olde postscript red an' blue b00kz off the shelf, in the end

asciilifeform: not hard to guess, eh. what else would asciilifeform be doing with svgism.

asciilifeform: aa

asciilifeform: hm?

asciilifeform: btw mircea_popescu will appreciate the phunphakt that asciilifeform originally sat down to make an animatedgif of the egyptological algos' mechanics. but eventually gave up and Wrote Wordz

asciilifeform: now exists!111

asciilifeform: why cluj tho

asciilifeform: this i saw yea

asciilifeform: lol! worx

asciilifeform: ( 'to chop [somebody] 'into cabbage' ')

asciilifeform: does ro have 'рубить в капусту' ?

asciilifeform: aha, the сноп ref immediately led me to it

asciilifeform: well yes we have сноп

asciilifeform: how many current-day englischers know what threshing was.

asciilifeform: ( which i suspect was corrupted 'thresh' )

asciilifeform: mebbe like engl 'thrash' ?

asciilifeform: lol!!

asciilifeform: i.e. it readily and without explanation invokes image of a shambles

asciilifeform: btw бНОПНЯ has the same magical power as îțâșă

asciilifeform: бНОПНЯ ВХРЮК?

asciilifeform: lol!!

asciilifeform: in other noose from asciilifeform's chamber of horrors : zoolag continues to astonish -- at tip of the spear continuously since reaching sync

asciilifeform: re-walked the literature , also.

asciilifeform: to round off thread -- asciilifeform very much enjoying rewriting ( and it is , yes , a total rewrite ) ffa ☟︎

asciilifeform did notice this.

asciilifeform pictures montypython's sacramental 'the french are revolting'

asciilifeform: aaa as in 'them peons dun count for half a shit'

asciilifeform: the latter a not wholly false cognate -- we have погрешность , i.e. instrument error , and from the slavonic root грех , i.e. sin

asciilifeform: lol yet another boobytrap

asciilifeform: is

asciilifeform: hmm

asciilifeform: ohah notbad

asciilifeform: !~translate ru to ro Сом Считает без ошибки

asciilifeform: Сом Считает без ошибки!!1111

asciilifeform: lol

asciilifeform: recall that * produces ~2~ nums.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re proof -- you go from the definition of division, where it finds integers x*y + r , etc

asciilifeform: ^ observe that this is a correct 512bit product

asciilifeform: !A .FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF*##

asciilifeform: ^easier on the eyes

asciilifeform: !A .A.3\#[,]#

asciilifeform: !A .A.3\##

asciilifeform: !A .2.2*##

asciilifeform: not updated yet!!

asciilifeform: grrr

asciilifeform: aha!11

asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf ch5

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: and a node that cannot be externally connected to is an eater, not a plower

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if yer ip moves, yer node becomes unconnectable-to ( and will merrily carry on broadcasting old ip to others as a seed)

asciilifeform: in other archaeolulz, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g-dyG-3uxQ

asciilifeform: lol!!

asciilifeform: peyoteway.life lol

asciilifeform expected this

asciilifeform: why not . ( cokemachine!111 )

asciilifeform: ( orig http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-28#1759378 ) ☝︎

asciilifeform: in other cokemachines, https://strana.ua/news/114755-pokhishchennoho-v-kieve-rossijskoho-kriptovaljutchika-otpustili-za-1-million-dollarov.html << supposedly shinohai's ukr 'ransomed self for milliondollar in btc'

asciilifeform: what'd it even look like for it to be new

asciilifeform can picture.

asciilifeform: i only had the 'good fortune' of seeing 1

asciilifeform: lol the one with 'upload kungfu'

asciilifeform: in other googlolz, 'In response to user reports, we have disabled some features, such as comments, sharing, and suggested videos, because this video contains content that may be inappropriate or offensive to some audiences.'

asciilifeform: gabgabgabilovethesoundofmyownvoiceprattleprattle

asciilifeform: and what's more, the standard type of tard typically 'pirate radio'

asciilifeform tuned in for coupla min, decided 'tards'

asciilifeform: ahahahaha

asciilifeform: uses browser's text renderer, and requires extensive manual fiddling to , e.g., actually span a text with graphic

asciilifeform: svg, funnily enuff, can't do text worth a shit

asciilifeform brb, meat

asciilifeform: but i'll let phf answer the particulars of this.

asciilifeform: iirc 1 of the ways he got the thing to stand up reliably was via exactly 'save-lisp-and-die' snapshot.

asciilifeform: but i still blame the lisps, not v.

asciilifeform: which is troo . and 'not bug, but feature' and in fact plays poorly with vtronics

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: phf's observation was re how lisp systems often accumulate GBs of state that takes weeks to re-create programatically

asciilifeform: in point of fact it dun stop when you pull 1 of 2 analogueboards

asciilifeform: can replace in any order and any subset

asciilifeform: 4 parts ( serialdongle, controller, the 2 analogueboards )

asciilifeform: but also no faux-entropy

asciilifeform: well for a short while there ain't any, when nothing plugged in

asciilifeform: not as if the serial dongle gives a fuck

asciilifeform: i do it regularly, when testing'em

asciilifeform: why not ?

asciilifeform: this is in fact part of uncrating test, recall.

asciilifeform: actually you can hotswap the analogue boards

asciilifeform: ( and 1 of the few readily accessible pieces of digital gear that fit this description , afaik )

asciilifeform: the 'holy grail' is items which are demonstrably safe to operate continuously -- i.e. fsa with no wedge states. these are not so easy to achieve; FUCKGOATS is one example

asciilifeform: stuff it behind the 'Finite Field....' phrase

asciilifeform: can haz link to ffaseries plox ? ( http://www.loper-os.org/?cat=49 is the metalink )
