asciilifeform: but prolly a liability in re reliably connecting to fleanode
asciilifeform: this was deliberate, so can work with e.g. a temporarily-disconnected znc on the other end
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: correct; current bot actually makes no attempt to determine whether in fact fleanode is on other end, or 'netcat' and silence
asciilifeform: ( for folx who did not read the genesis -- snsabot is 100% 'naked' sockets , dun include any 'irc libs', so entirely possible that i missed some other fleanode wart ! )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: aha, this oughta suffice
asciilifeform: ( until then, errybody plz poke asciilifeform with stick if ever notice that bot is awol !!! )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i'ma have to add this, to the bot, else it cannot be considered automatic
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: tho i suppose this is already enuff to litmus whether in-$chan or not
asciilifeform: so far only can see that 1) bot is there 2) no missed lines in any other chan 3) logs when i shat there just now 4) indicates that is 1st log line in #e since tuned in
asciilifeform: #e was tuned in at initial boot, it was not late addition
asciilifeform: why lobbes has these feedbot ticks and i not ??
asciilifeform: i'd like to find out what gives re snsabot in #e
asciilifeform: iirc thread re the restaranteur was discussed then
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: iirc it was a redditism (dunno whether had own reddit pit) , meme, 'lay down and rot' (i.e. what to do when yer goose is cooked but not yet gathered courage to eat pistol)
asciilifeform: diana_coman: phf's did not include space in 'nick;*;payload'
asciilifeform: keep in mind, this is ~ancient~ tech, i can connect to e.g. 'emule' net (somehow alive for 20y!!) and put in hash and get e.g. copy of DERIVE.EXE, same one i used in '96
asciilifeform: atm we're doing quite a bit of hand-cranked mirrorism for this. but ultimately would make moar sense to have mechanism where gns(....hash....) spits out ~always~ e.g. diana_coman's log tape, or logotron.vpatch, or whatnot, for so long as can reach ~any~ tmsr machine
asciilifeform: prolly would make moar sense to discuss 1nce we have luby/gossipd/etc
asciilifeform: incidentally this thread opens up ancient q, of whether it'd make sense to bake a 'tmsr distributed storage' item
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i've been fucking fed up for year+ w/ having to beg people to 'pleez reset yer logger' etc
asciilifeform: and with raw export knob i expect it will be relatively painless to bake 'dumb' mirrors ( Troo mirror imho really oughta have own bot !! )
asciilifeform: it's still, i dare say, a quite barbarous logger. ( in coupla wks i expect we'll find out whether in fact asciilifeform cracked the riddle of fleanode socket barf, incidentally ) but imho beats shit out of 'maybe, we have loggers? on warm weather days?'
asciilifeform still, incidentally, waiting for report from anyone re whether asciilifeform's logotron in fact worx somewhere other than where-written...
