decimation: perhaps
the macs I had in high school were shit
decimation: more often
then not it would just lock & reboot randomly
decimation: my objection
to macos 9 and earlier wasn't
that it was a
terrible user experience, it was mainly its inability
to gracefully handle errors
BingoBoingo: decimation:
True story Bought my first cumputer around 2000
decimation: actually I was sad when apple capitulated
to wintel
BingoBoingo: decimation:
True Macs have only 1 upgrade, OS???
to A/UX
decimation: apple is famous for deprecating any feature
that an advanced user would find useful
decimation: BingoBoingo: people who upgrade macs are already very familiar with
this hell
decimation: the fact
that our identification mechanism depends very little on freenode security shows a strong point
decimation: "Contribute
to and use distros like Slackware, CRUX, Funtoo, and Gentoo
that follow
traditional Unix paradigms."
decimation: hehe yeah. when
the update mechanism begs you
to upgrade,
the seduction is hard
to avoid
BingoBoingo: decimation: Solution might be
to be lazier
to avoid
the systemd update???
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah
too lazy
to switch off
BingoBoingo: <decimation> although
they jumped on
the systemd bandwagon << Alpine Linux still defaults
to clean
decimation: the most annoying part
to me is getting rid of a
text syslog
decimation: replacing init scripts
that have been inherited from
the early unix days with aimless binaries
BingoBoingo: decimation> I would consider migrating
to openbsd, but I'm not sure it would have a friendly user interface << Can be done, just worry about drivers first.
TheNewDeal: is
that at all similar
to android init.d?
JuliaTourianski: +BingoBoingo hhaha just someone said
to me she's "penetrating
the btc scene" so I figured I should probably know of her if
that's
the case
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well in
those scenarios my favored fix is scotch
tape+conductor.
decimation: although
they jumped on
the systemd bandwagon
decimation: they have a variant of 'ports',
they seem
to actively manage dependencies pretty well
decimation: I would consider migrating
to openbsd, but I'm not sure it would have a friendly user interface
assbot: iPod
Touch 3rd Generation Battery Replacement - iFixit
decimation: asciilifeform: apparently 'soldered batteries' were a favorite of HP
to force you
to send back your expensive
test gear for service.
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski: So in what context did you learn of
this new girl? I'm a
trained libraian
BingoBoingo: Sure, replacement of batteries is possible without soldering and heating batteries, but... I worry about
the social engineering
threat where nifty microcomputer gets defamed as a bomb by homo retardus
BingoBoingo: Shame about being
the harbringer of iPod solder you own batteries
BingoBoingo: On a related note, wasn't
the Palm V a nifty piece of harware?
BingoBoingo: Makes centuries ROM disk seem like a
trivial
task by comparison
though.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Sure, but considering
two legs of contingency
trip involve feet instead of
tires...
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: WHY DO YOUR FUCKING BRAVES HAVE
TO CHOKE SO LATE IN
THE SEASON!!!
BingoBoingo: Even fucking 68k macs are starting
to seem bulky as I plan for contingencies.
BingoBoingo: Yeah,
turning into a concern at
the moment
assbot: I Didn't Know
That - Concrete
Tent - YouTube
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I do appreciate your endorsement earlier for
the museum approach
to IT
BingoBoingo: You'd have
to choose between
the coarse mechanism
that produces melanin in skin and a scanning
tunneling microscope otherwise
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_: Nah, focus happens in degrees, otherwise eyes wouldn't be
tenable
BingoBoingo: I'm just amazed
that
TLC's writing sections... has images of fountain pens.
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_: Of course. It is a practical reason
to have focus.
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_: danielpbarron is a rare bird here in
that he is an orthodoxy attracted
thinker
that can stick around.
JuliaTourianski_: +BingoBoingo
to be fair, very young cute girls are more rarely seen in btc
than dudes. so it naturally peaks my curiosity
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_: Of course,
this is mega professional chan. You
took danielpbarron's
trollbait and made an earnest effort.
BingoBoingo: If you want
to investigate who might be representing
themselves as Bitcoin
to SIliconvalley
tards of course be sexist and focus on
the girls.
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_:
The
trick is being sexist for
the right queries.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> nobody seems
to ask 'who're
the new girls in high-temperature metallurgy' << Already filed under
things I look for in a potential wife.
JuliaTourianski_: +BingoBoingo she was mentioned
to me, im always curious about new girls in btc
BingoBoingo: Probably because Julia is
the new
trendy science language or something
assbot: Loper OS »
Thumbs Down for Clojure
assbot: "Inside
the Wolfram Language" by Stephen Wolfram - YouTube
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_: Ah, wondering why you were asking. I'm
trying
to navigate her site nao.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
That is a favorite
tlc, I use it
to
tell when my car interior need cleaning.
nanotube: kakobrekla: google
translate is now a pay-api... so gotta move
to another api provider. and well... it just doesn't seem
too urgent :)
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski_: No,
that person you asked us about
BingoBoingo: I already have an adequate
tent, but... what would be
the nice opposite of
that.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Not for biodiesel, for flipping upside down and using as a residence.
The hexayurt
thing is making me imagine.
BingoBoingo is curious if anyone here casts iron
themselves, may be interested in a
two hundred
thousand quart pot.
BingoBoingo: You know I have no idea why
the spicy food fanatics stayed confined
to capcaisin when Urushiol containing plants
tend
to offer a different yet interesting punch.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Nah I saw one of
their joins and upped
the strapon finder
mod6: so, if
they ever get a JSON feed, let me know, will add right away.
mod6: so,
this interface looks just like CoinMiner.net, and I recall, before
they had a JSON feed
to parse, I had a lot of
trouble scraping
the HTML because
the pool hashrate is buried in a span
mod6: < BitOTTer460> >> No data returned from CoinMiner.net << [PityThePool Hashrate]: 142.94 GH/s [iSpace Pool Hashrate]: 1.26
TH/s [p2p Pool Hashrate]: 0
TH/s
mod6: well...
testing now. lemme see.
mod6: BingoBoingo: not
too much. you got one
to add?
