asciilifeform: as for gcc, the mushroom let it go in mid-2000s, moar or less.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: his last , near as i can tell, act as a human, was to try & keep this liquishit out of his signed kernel tree. for which he was 'retired'.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it's a google-submitted patch, and it got eaten by the new, 'improved' torvalds, near as i can tell
asciilifeform: it 'works' in the same way as other 'nobus-maintenance' kludges (e.g. koch's 2016 patch) 'work' -- raise bar so that nobus
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what would it mean for the kludge to 'work' ? it aint as if x86 actually offers process isolation.
asciilifeform takes the occasion to observe that ffa is 'speculation'-proof, not only in theory but as empirically tested on 7 ( & counting ) intel boxen of various vintages
a111: Logged on 2019-01-14 03:53 mircea_popescu: in other arcana : i have here a copy of trb that has died a mysterious death on dec 31st. the process itself hasn't returned, ps aux lists it as expected, however the last time it touched any files was two weeks ago, nor does a call to getinfo ever return.
mircea_popescu: ' as god intended it. wtf happened there.
BingoBoingo: I've encountered quite a bit of it in my spam traps as well as searching for life various all comers spam traps.
asciilifeform: ( and near as i can tell, ~100% of usg 'dope policy' is simply own competition for dope konsoomers. but i'm not particularly qualified to opine, nao if only gabriel_laddel were around... )
BingoBoingo: The Japanese lords did as they should
mircea_popescu: but as a factual matter : "tearing down" a duke is always easy enough from behind. dealing with the cost-of-consequence of having torn down your duke, intractable problem.
mircea_popescu: yet the man said, "In any century before this one, a people as divided as the British over Europe would have started murdering each other long ago. "
mircea_popescu: "This is a war Budget. It is for raising money to wage implacable warfare against poverty and squalidness. I cannot help hoping and believing that before this generation has passed away, we shall have advanced a great step towards that good time, when poverty, and the wretchedness and human degradation which always follows in its camp, will be as remote to the people of this country as the wolves which once infested its fores
mircea_popescu: pro tip : whenever the inferior whine about maltreatment, it's a sure sign as if god spoke himself that you're sparing the rod excessively, and spoiling the children in consequence.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-18#1888188 << oh hey , was this same grandfather as 'i miss stalin, we were younger then' ? ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: point here being, that they crearted a thing, a year ago. and then the thing they created a year ago was found not good, and was reformed, months ago. and reformed it stands as called, and well... the minds that think thus think thus, and do everything else exactly as you'\d expect.
mircea_popescu: "Many paternalist conservatives, including those of the "One Nation" tendency with which May identifies, have made a point of disagreeing with Lady Thatcher's famous dictum that there is no such thing as society. But it increasingly looks as if she was right. We don't have society anymore but rather an economy." << incidentally, that is EXACTRLY what gave europe the villa economy, hence villeins ie diocletian's chained plebs,
mircea_popescu: but anyway, in the us the strictly only avenue left to the dnc is to "pretend" to "ignore". if they engage they get crushed. the party's already gone as a going concern, for which reason : the only way an imaginary party can continue its imagined hold on worldly things is through "ignoring" them. ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Look at Pelosi, all the other career women are telling her to respond to everything Trump does as though a toddler is having a tantrum (i.e. ignoring him unless he 'calms down' for an impossible in this case definition of calm down). Nevermind the response is not only what Trump wants, it is what the hayseeds and others supporting Trump want.
mircea_popescu: and as far as "they" are concerned... there goes england, today in the exact same political position as if it had simply handed over the empire to wilhelm in 1905 -- minus, of course, the cost of two costly wars with germany.
mircea_popescu: what sort of hay must the brainbox of this "independent" "careerwoman" contain to not realise as much ?
BingoBoingo: If you have been using Pizarro shared hosting your IRC bouncer you are invited to stand up an IRC bouncer on my Rockchip as the vacant Rockchip appears to have failed.
mircea_popescu: short decade ago, these self-same morons convinced themselves and maybe any dependent preteen children / some dumber than average wives&girlfriends they "run the world", or as close an approximation to that vaunted state as practicable.
asciilifeform: given as they apparently are made of toiletpaper.
asciilifeform: was stood up again with new drive. ( and then ~again~ today with fresh one , of same type as presently used by e.g. diana_coman ), same res.
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: This one died with sad drive as well
mircea_popescu: otherwise, you amply do not care : a box that crashes on diddling is as valuable as an undiddlable box.
asciilifeform: given as the other 5 units of pilot plant are still standing, i suspect straight chinese rot, rather than bomb.
asciilifeform: possibly as consequence of cleaning, or of the earlier dud drives ( tho none of other 5 were similarly afflicted )
asciilifeform: near as i can tell, thing ends up fetching bitrotted blox from disk (ssd stix) and dies, unsurprisingly, at ~random points in first few min of life
asciilifeform: near as i can tell, thing ends up fetching bitrotted blox from disk (ssd stix) and dies, unsurprisingly, at ~rando
mircea_popescu: as in won't boot ?!
asciilifeform: is the reason why asciilifeform went with 'pack as much into ea. 1u x86 as physically possible' when init buildout.
asciilifeform: and these have monumental cost of transport, as already established.
asciilifeform: it appears that we'll still have to construct a larger rk plant, but they will have to be physically racked in such a way as to be replaceable without taking down whole plant
mircea_popescu: The apparent murder of journalist Ahmed Divela is chilling. Ghana is recognized by many, including me, as a vibrant, strong democracy and an example for the continent in many ways. " meanwhile in related lulz. ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: as opposed to my buying cookies to give girly so she takes her clothes off.
mircea_popescu: vapor pressure, rite. if you hang for piracy as well as highway robbery (1/100 the capital goods costs) competent females will be found in piracy not in highway robbery, because female vapor pressure ~0.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it aint as if there were no highwaymen back when marchlord
BingoBoingo: Hey, the amount of old woman wailing over their pobre angelitos dying is increasing as the angelitos in question get shot breaking into a man's residence/place of business

asciilifeform: 4-5 rooms share kitchen/toilet/hall, same as in ye olde communist world
BingoBoingo: trinque: Here the culture views McDonalds as classy.
trinque: if they had it, would buy. same reason as when I was in CR there was a huge line of natives for the mcd's and starbucks
asciilifeform: ( substantial, as i understand, 'diy project', to make it livable. but some people -- did )
trinque: plenty of rich as hell folks in houston living in concrete and steel, like sensible people do in hurricane zones
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-16#1887824 << yet you persist believing such a thing as a schoolbook is available to them. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: as they fucking should.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Might as well get some goats and take control of your local Cheesechain
asciilifeform: typical, as i understand, path, for these people.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i have a distant relative, who 'ivy league'(tm)(r) 'perfect grade' etc etc and ended up as n-th lieutenant prosecutor in some arsehole, prosecuting 'dindus'
asciilifeform: gotta count the losses as well as the gains tho.
asciilifeform: funnily enuff i still think of tank (in 'platonic' sense) as a vaguely germanic item, despite being brit invention and sov 'killer app'
asciilifeform: machines ran for so long as foreign hands were on site to run'em, neh
mircea_popescu: people exactly 100% as african as before -- but capital investment fell off cliff in 80s and never recovered
a111: Logged on 2019-01-08 18:06 asciilifeform: ( and for all i know, ro actually involved moar 'turkeydollar', as by mircea_popescu's and other accts was 'tighter ship' )
BingoBoingo: If you're replacing the sill plate might as well raise the concrete foundation so the sill sits further from gound level and all of a sudden the concrete cabin out in Cerro start to look like a good alternative.
asciilifeform: flea as in fleadom.
mod6: But I put that all aside back in November. And then the whole door/joist thing started. But I'll look into when I might be able to get it together, but may be even after alf's time frame. However, will advise as soon as I know.
mod6: This all started because we need a new door, it's old as shit, and all the weather stripping is bad, etc. So of course, this isn't std door size. So I paid some good money to have a custom one made to size. When the carp came out to install it, the first thing he did was pull off one piece of molding, and stuck his file down in the bottom area where that joist is located, and it pushed right through. ☟︎
mod6: And then when it came back up, I again restarted the services, and then a while later, it crashed again. And perhaps another time as well.
a111: Logged on 2016-02-29 03:00 asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: you are still thinking of rms as a self-aware creature, having a thought process
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: doubt that it has anyffin to do with the reluctance to use it ~at all~ displayed by some pubkey-as-arsenicum-amulet folx
asciilifeform: i.e. as authentic as the Shards of the Troo Cross lol
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform by now the moron's studious ignorance is pretty much his only salient feature. same as that other y schmuck.
asciilifeform: ox as well as it did for esr tho, his www already for year or 2 contains a begtron
asciilifeform: btw didja know, mircea_popescu , that yarvin has an rsatron in there ? possibly will be remembered as the only rsatron gnarlier/buggier than kochs's, or even microshit's
a111: Logged on 2019-01-15 17:36 asciilifeform: the output is n1 * n2 * ... n_n , cuz you represented'em as ~probabilities~
asciilifeform: plox do ~not~ use same key as on uy1.
asciilifeform: it's an interesting 'upside-down world', where, e.g., addition costs ~moar~ than multiplication ( i will leave as exercise, how it is done )
asciilifeform: why to do this, may seem a mystery, until realize that noise immunity means that you can use very fast logic elements , given as you aren't much concerned with 100% accuracy over small time period, only convergence.
asciilifeform: the output is n1 * n2 * ... n_n , cuz you represented'em as ~probabilities~ ☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as i understand , the guzman thing was even lulzier, d00d was hired to run the ~crypto~
mircea_popescu: what the fuck is a Cristian Rodriguez anyway ?! might as well be schmuck mcsmith.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the first fucking move is to establish yourself as a domain expert.
asciilifeform: as for asciilifeform , can go in mid march at the earliest.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i dun think there will be such a thing as 'low stakes' trip, unless mod6 wants to take vacation on own coin
mircea_popescu: i meant, pizarro made more money as a financial vehicle, exploiting fx rates, than as an operator.
asciilifeform: uy1 is bad enuff as 'central point of failure', would rather not create moar of'em.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo et al : re uy1: if it continues humming along, as it presently appears to be, we gotta proclaim a maintenance window and properly stress test the thing, load cpu to max for coupla hrs
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Will clean it this afternoon. Loving the marketing potential that yes, Rockchip will happily run many services so long as the RAM is minded.
mircea_popescu: "we dunno wtf happened, i guess to a certain mind events centered on jan 13th suspicious as fuck, we have a new kernel and we redid the bios just in case, dunno what more can be possibly done" is, or atleast i guess will have to be, acceptable.
mircea_popescu: do you suppose bios could benefit from a reflash ? if nothing else, to have thermal / crash logging as expected ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: box runs asciilifeform's kernel as of 9hr ago.
mircea_popescu: and then, when i went to clean it, i found it dirty ; as opposed to clean.
asciilifeform: ( can't speak for colo subscribers such as trinque , referring to pizarro irons )
mircea_popescu: but the ram in that box is as new as a kitten.
asciilifeform: but indeed i'd much like to move to a 'near-errybody on rockchips' , ~these~ can approximate the ideal of 'treat irons as toilet paper, discard on 1st sign of rot'
mircea_popescu: so then as a factual matter, if asciilifeform threw out erry box that rebooted "by itself" for no apparent reason, pizarro would be missing uy1
mircea_popescu: and the coincidence is there, and glaringly. we know for a fapt inept http://trilema.com/2012/law-enforcement-never-fails-to-unintentionally-entertain/ efforts ~signature move~ is rebootage, much like olde smersh signature move was the clicking on phone line ; and as he points out, buncha people moved their zncs there.
asciilifeform: i'ma take the chance to highlight the http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-14#1886752 thing -- on sane iron , there'd be no such thing as a 'oops rebooted but fuck if i tellya why' ☝︎
asciilifeform: the chowdhrys are, as i currently understand, the vaisya/sudra-heavy wave of emigres & their nth gen, largely content with 'middling' ranks, the native usg.brahmin spawn dun want these
mircea_popescu: so somehow "you can't run for city council, you're not 2nd gen azn immigrant" not quite as threatening as "you're fat because you eat too much and never get off ass" ?
mircea_popescu: but hence my objection ? turning a blind eye to all the chowdrys taking over bureaucracy while crying bloody murder over ~explanation~ as to why first black president === worst president ever ?
asciilifeform: 1 interesting maffs problem , is whether you can generate a sequence of witnesses that will tell troof of compositivity for ~any~ externally supplied N , up to given bitness. ( and as i understand this q is isomorphic to bach's generalized-riemann item that diana_coman dug up. )
asciilifeform: at all times operator must be able to verify that m-r behaves as m-r.
