livegnik: I didn't know in what other way to describe it in ~140 characters. Open for suggestions / feedback anytime :)
asciilifeform: <mod6> meanwhile in gentoo land, kernel panic'd again << that's not a real kernel panic, again. that is a box that can't read its rootfs
danielpbarron: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/34uu02/why_increasing_the_max_block_size_is_urgent_gavin/cqycy4h "Rather, the only push you see against larger blocks come from strong advocates of personal autonomy and decenteralization, like Peter Todd; or the MPOE crowd (regardless of what you might think about them, they wouldn't be any to bend to commercial or government interests)." ☟︎
asciilifeform: mod6: either 1) don't or 2) build ext4 into the kernel
mod6: i thought that one thing said that I didn't need Grub unless i was using hvm or whatever.
mod6: i had build this kernel yesterday. i don't see anything about "ROOTSTYPE" in my config that I used... (posted above)
mod6: yeah, shoudn't being the key word there; in my mind, it certainly should match.
danielpbarron: the patch.sig is by ascii's key, so it shouldn't matter what it hashes to or what btc-dev says
mircea_popescu: mod6 iof the hashes don't match you shouldn't generall merge
mod6: http://dpaste.com/1NHSMPB.txt << patched into bitcoin-v0_5_3_1-RELEASE, sig looks good, although the hash's didn't match what the filename was changed to on btc-dev ml
mircea_popescu: trinque that's the "innovation" << exactly. and inasmuch as the us tort system is insane, this is both unavoidable and in a sense useful. but this doesn't mean uber makes any sense, anymore than shaving head in women makes sense. "but she's got lice" "well in THAT case"
mod6: np. i was more hoping if this 3rd attempt fails, you could watch over my shoulder to make sure I don't make any retarded moves.
mod6: maybe the document just didn't space the /sys & sysfs properly.
trinque: yeah probably old; I didn't use a write-up
mod6: sysysfs isn't a thing
mod6: I know for sure I did that the first time... didn't seem to help. however, the first attempt, I'm not positive that I didn't somehow screw-up the fstab.
mod6: There was some talk that one wouldn't/shouldn't need to change kernels anyway for AWS.
mod6: i didn't do anything special in that case. tbh, didn't know I had to, or even what to do, if anything.
mod6: <+mod6> (this error is from the build where I /didn't/ build a new kernel) << no new kernel, no .config
mod6: i don't have evidence to support this claim: i'm very sure everything was setup for ext4
mod6: (this error is from the build where I /didn't/ build a new kernel)
mod6: I don't think I will... so not really sure where to go on that. trinque, I think you're gonna have to help me build this thing; if you can.
trinque: "We could deploy a carnival so much more quickly if we didn't bother with safety precautions, and instead let each guest assemble his piece of the rides, and signing off that he is personally liable for that part."
williamdunne: trinque: Doesn't look like there has been too much going wrong, a few cases of houses being vandalized, or customers being dickholes
trinque: mod6: right, and everyone on both ends of the transaction will ultimately try to blame their reputation system or whatever didn't work
williamdunne: Doesn't sound right
williamdunne: I dunno, maybe I'm missing something but it seems like a pretty solid alternative for short stays. Wouldn't use it for a holiday but, a weekend in a new city? Sure.
trinque notes that he can't yet find profit numbers for airbnb
williamdunne: But I don't think that is the point
williamdunne: Well sure, I wouldn't invest in an AirBNB hotel
williamdunne: I don't see it as a scam, maybe you can change my mind, but it seems like a pretty efficient way to do things
williamdunne: Isn't the 'Uber of' thing about getting your users to supply the infrastructure rather than getting the expensive assets yourself?
mircea_popescu: anyway, i don't perceive what the great danger is here.
assbot: Logged on 04-05-2015 16:45:26; funkenstein_: wow, that is not that long ago. crocodiles didn't change much over that time.
ascii_field: note that this one isn't a backport from anyone
lobbes: Now to change the init to something other than systemd (for reasons I don't fully grok yet, other than it is being pushed pretty aggressively, from what I gather)
ascii_field: mod6: now, as far as i can tell, it doesn't jam up the attempted static build
BingoBoingo: trinque: Putting aside the nonsensical "hospital" and "secure", home use of these things isn't uncommon
trinque: BingoBoingo: hospital networks are required by law to be secure; I don't see the problem with this
trinque: cop isn't the exploiter in that scenario
mircea_popescu: moreover, didn't japanese employees have to pass physicals at work ?
mircea_popescu: the problem, of course, being that with globalization you really can't get options. it'll have to be pret a porter, one thing universally.
pete_dushenski: and now china can't afford silence ?
mircea_popescu: except... it didn't quite work like that.
ascii_field: but, in my analysis, if it weren't for su's heavy diddling, the place would've been carved into manageable bantustans by usa post-war
assbot: Logged on 19-02-2014 04:52:44; asciilifeform: rec. reading re: china: 'The Rise of Early Modern Science: Islam, China and the West', T. E. Huff
pete_dushenski: trinque: seems nuts to us, then again, there's a method to the chinese madness or else they wouldn't have ruled so much of the world for so much of modern history.
ascii_field: it isn't rocket surgery, this
mircea_popescu: jurov you know, i don't read the current propaganda either.
assbot: How A Bigger Blockchain Is Less Secure And Why Block Size Ain't Gonna Increase Any Time Soon | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski ... ( http://bit.ly/1GKN9UK )
trinque: pete_dushenski: I don't know that you manage them doing this either
mircea_popescu: <funkenstein_> anyway, i don't think they will be able to make lying about your age a violation. << should be funny if they do... fill the jail up with 29 yo women.
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski: "“More transactions means more bandwidth and CPU and storage cost, and more cost means increased centralization because fewer people will be able to afford that cost.” << isn't the rebuttal to that on your blog?
funkenstein_: anyway, i don't think they will be able to make lying about your age a violation.
mircea_popescu: "Bob: Don't worry, we factored that into our budget after they upped Avagadro's number in China last year."
mircea_popescu: they couldn't really tell, between bubonic plague and malaria and everything else the "better" social arrangements blessed them with.
mircea_popescu: it wasn't.
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ that's kind-oif the point here. all sorts of fraud available to people trying to push pseudo-anthropology agendas. like for instance people don't readily understand just how huge the genetic and paleohistoric gap between us and chimps is.
funkenstein_: wow, that is not that long ago. crocodiles didn't change much over that time. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: you will have to bear in mind that all hominid species other than us are extinct. this isn't some sort of direct lineage, as the layman often imagines.
mircea_popescu: "It is still unhealthy to breathe in – and smells very bad!" dude srsly, sweden is on euro 4. you can't even tell it exhausts something.
mircea_popescu: in "the glory of linux", chapter eleventy billion : find . -size 1258 finds nothing. find . -size 1267 finds nothing. find . -size -64 finds all the 1258 and 1267 byte files the previous two didn't find.
pete_dushenski: somehow carla didn't end up mentioned in this article 2014/12/17/a-swimming-pool-of-idle-tears-wont-spare-the-affirmative-action-fallguy-shes-still-the-canary/ but she was definitely in mind when writing it.
mike_c: i guess they haven't read mp's "you're too late" post
mircea_popescu: and that reason being that when you're stupid, you really need an audience that doesn't know better.
mircea_popescu: so it doesn't want to be made his bitch.
mircea_popescu: how do you know god didn't mean for you to be a woman ?
mircea_popescu: i don't.
davout: how'd you know it doesn't go "you know bob, this is un-sjw!!1, also fuck you bitch!"
mircea_popescu: the animal doesn't go "you know bob, this is un-sjw!!1". it goes "fuck you bitch!"
mircea_popescu: animals fuck, that doesn't mean animals display "the human notion of love". they display the animal notion of love.
davout: you can't invent that shit
mircea_popescu: re that 3,658 views youtube : them riots aren't as notable as a minor football game.
decimation: according to the conservative heritage foundation, obama's people can't help themselves by stirring up shit in argentina http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2013/03/the-united-states-should-recognize-british-sovereignty-over-the-falkland-islands
asciilifeform: re: rt: https://youtu.be/Q8o9KBGAp70?t=30s << apparently it happened.
decimation: I don't get why argentinians give a fuck about falklands
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: https://youtu.be/B1TI7aqgfyk?t=2m2s << putin promised ar oil&gas exploration of 'largest deposit in south america', war machines incl. fighter jets, and - in the segment linked, to jurov's certain delight - a sp. lang. version of 'rt'.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't work.
trinque: doesn't verify with that bit removed either
mircea_popescu: http://www.nber.org/papers/w20171 << tl;dr "internet advertising doesn't do anything"
mircea_popescu: i don't get it tho. how ? why ?
decimation: I can see a definite use case for people who just want a simple keyserver for themselves, but don't want to join the worldwide gpg mob
Adlai has started research on a potential article, and would like to confirm that effort isn't wasted, or at the very least ,collaborate
mircea_popescu: in other news, http://33.media.tumblr.com/1ea44b17eb4bd24fad08a6d8be2a7933/tumblr_mpwxdoKMIA1rwmba9o1_500.gif >> check the chick out. she's all indignant but doesn't move a muscle to stop it.
asciilifeform: and i'm a lamer, and don't know about it
asciilifeform: it really doesn't need the whole box to itself!
mircea_popescu: i don't recall, was a big deal thread cca 2012
mircea_popescu: Adlai the idea being that if you cache a link on the very place where the link is referenced, you can't have link rot because if the place is up it's up and if it's down there's no link anyway
cazalla: i dunno Adlai, i'm thankful not to be a woman but i don't give daily thanks to it
Adlai can't make this shit up
davout: jurov: why wouldn't it?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah i figured you would, but i didn't wanna fuck with it.
mircea_popescu: http://www.find-t.co/ << pretty handy t.co braindamage reverser.
cazalla: ;;later tell bingoboingo your pino rooster didn't deliver the goods, i ended up betting on mayweather at the last moment :P
asciilifeform: decimation: it wasn't running java
decimation: he didn't even write it, another guy with the same name did
decimation: but I don't really follow that
mircea_popescu: hasn't even been investigated at any point, it's just revelation or something.
jurov: he isn't regged with gribble at all
Ralph: I don't mean to nag, but I don't know what's holding up the payout. Looks like the bitcoins for the payout are just sitting here --> 1QJRejN99TYnk8Ctae1ZxtMhmrgRqs6bPF
