fluffypony: Apocalyptic: yeah it's really going
to save me having
to learn JavaScript and using Node,
that seemed way
too complicated
Naphex: then snapshot
that and use it
to clone servers
fluffypony: I'm moving all of my sites on
to iCloud
Naphex: you can even skip
thinking
that anything stored
there is secure. cause everything is available
to
the hypervisor and who runs it
jurov: now if I can figure out how
to sanely manage it
jurov recommends network of VPSes distributed
to different suppliers
xmj can recommend
tilaa.nl for FreeBSD VPS.
jurov: you're up
to a call
to missouri, have you seen it?
BingoBoingo: benkay With any luck you were looking at someone's best efforts
to spoil any money
they might have already spent on lawyers.
dub: with any luck
the end of any need
to further
troll his victims
dub: im struggling with how
this person is profiting from all
this manip^HHHrket making
lobbes: It is a shitstorm in
that
thread.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell decimation mihaib sounds like quite
the romanian name
decimation: I prefer
to keep
the lower frequency EM fields around my house pure, so I can receive shortwave well
kakobrekla: interesting asciilifeform , you really have seen it all, and
too bad you didnt link me a week ago. :)
decimation: re: dataflow: I've been browsing
the academic papers on "dataflow" computers. Most of
them are crazy "C machine" and "Dataflow sidecar" hybrids. Makes as much sense as putting a massive aircraft engine in a car: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJn7LHE83cc
decimation: lol I bet it costs $1
to ship from hong kong
decimation: yeah,
that's
the kind of device where you want
to shop "ebay local"
decimation: I'm interested in
the lightning suppression, I live in a lightning-prone area and I want
to
take precautions against harm. I'm not convinced by
the "protect" LED in cheapass MOV devices
decimation: "management" in
the west would hate
the buzzing
decimation: the 'trick' is
the airgapped shunt
that causes
the secondary
to saturate,
thus causing
the output voltage
to remain in a narrow range. It's interesting
to me
that
this has been known since 1940, is ideal for computers, and is apparently mostly unknown amoung computer users
kakobrekla: i found something else
to waste
time on
kakobrekla: other
things but 'new' attracted me, but whatever.
kakobrekla: ok so
this newlisp is slow as fuck even if
they claim otherwise.
decimation: I might have
to go find one of my own, if
they are available for cheap.
decimation: asciilifeform: after reading
that chapter, it appears
that ferroresonant
transformers help with voltage regulation, suppressing harmonics and
transients, as well as riding
through nasty undervolt conditions (that kill switching power supplies).
They aren't very helpful for momentary outages, as you have said.
decimation: asciilifeform: re: cvt: interesting. It seems
to me
that saturating
the secondary would clip
the output waveform, precautions must have been
taken
to prevent
this
BingoBoingo: I guess
that's fair,
there's been a lot of blood
benkay: of
the software-y and app-y nature
BingoBoingo: "This bait and switch defense procurement situation, one
that has become eerily circular in nature, is a much larger
threat
to national security
then uneducated men in mud huts with AK-47s. A foe which we have spent
trillions
targeting and killing for over
the last decade with little
to show for it."

Transformer (CVT) introduction -
the perfect sine wave
decimation: asciilieform re:
transformer isn't nonlinear resonance something
to be avoided? How does
the circuit maintain its nolinear resonance with variable load conditions.
decimation: asciilifeform re:
truecrypt audit >> it is indeed old news, but I didn't see
the point emphasized on
the channel
assbot: Winklevoss
Twins Buying Giant $14.5 Million Penthouse...
Together?
BingoBoingo: I'm still wondering how I might do
that, but
there are ideas.
mircea_popescu: and making history and all
that jazz all
the derps claim
mircea_popescu: once bb's pot increases significantly i'll bug him
to do something similar, but for now a small wildcard is all
the spritz needed
mike_c: will get even more live when jurov finishes his
thing :)
mircea_popescu: dude is it great
that
these aren't related and so p2 can cover p4 etc

mike_c: she won, but it didn't cover
the small hedge

danielpbarron: (not
that a "zero your balance" is a good solution
to
that0
danielpbarron: dub, maybe something
to do with
that change you can never withdraw or
trade on exchanges;
the stuff
that's not big enough for any of
the minimums
dub: Use Caution:
This will zero (0)
the balance of your wallet and cannot be reversed. Please be absolutely sure you want
to do
this before you confirm.
dub: wtfing at
this bittrex feature
mircea_popescu: because
they're paid by how much
they pretend
to have mattered
the previous year.
mircea_popescu: idiot. no, it's not part of it. it's part of every govt agency even remotely arguably connected
trying
to get a slice
mircea_popescu: "I haven't heard from my lawyer exactly how much
that's going
to be," he said.
mircea_popescu: Reached by phone Monday afternoon, Slaughter was unaware of Kander's news release but said it must have been part of a settlement his lawyers were working on with
the office. He said he also expects
to have
to pay a fine.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: benkay: Are
they supposing I want
to fuck a hurricaine? << imagine
the suction.
mircea_popescu: jurov: i move for moiety
to call
them, ask about mpex and report for lulz << carried. moiety plz
to call and ask
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: re: kickstarter: lol. suggested experiment: open a kickstart, with
the headline 'pay my living expense for 20 years. in
the end, you might get a useful gizmo if i live
that long.' << you're making jurov's argument for him
tho.
mircea_popescu: there are reasons a good manager is worth more
than a good anything.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: jurov: smbx had perverse incentives (usg funding
that appeared bottomless - until it died suddenly. reagan's 'star wars.') << best way
to sink a good start-up is a bad revenue source early on.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: as a reddit/facebook/whatever social media site, bitfinex is just as good as any one of a
thousand
third hand niche
things
mircea_popescu: im sure
they';re getting plenty of
traffic, no argument
there.
kakobrekla: and afaik bs did another audit recently, where it shows
they have less btc in books
t han in
the last one
kakobrekla: where else sheep gonna go? bitstamp is fucking
them
too directly.
kakobrekla: but i honestly believe
they are getting
traffic

mike_c: i am recalling. soon gox2 will arise with
their stolen code and
they can compete on even footing.
