mod6: haha. i've never used one of these before. but im interested in learning how to use it.

asciilifeform: relays ( i shit thee not ) click inside it, when switching ranges

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-19#1629073 << is what i have. cheapo, but worx with not-winblowz ☝︎

shinohai: o heya mod6 .... sorry about last night guess I fell asleep before I got your message, still need to see that output?

mod6: http://btcbase.org/log/2015-06-12#1162469 << I'm looking at scopes... anreccomendations on these? tektronix or rigol ones ok? ☝︎

asciilifeform: recently i found that even a plebe could, in theory, afford a few thou. units of 1980s-style fab.

asciilifeform: i know this because he is fabless, makes'em at commercial 'by the pound' fabs

asciilifeform: makes'em in modern fab, cheap, too, i have a bunch of samples here

mircea_popescu: i'm sure. wasn't much of a problem in general in the z80s days

asciilifeform: phf: i've contemplated a 'cheat' : run macivory 'lifesupport' on patched m68k emulator (e.g., 'basilisk') that would bring nubus i/o out to a test stand, on which the card would sit

asciilifeform: also it seems like there were 2 macivories, the one i almost bought, was 4x slower than the last made, and had external ( on another nubus card ) ram

phf: aah, yeah, i'll test it in xl

asciilifeform: i was merely confounded by 'i'll test it in my ivory'

asciilifeform: aha i knew this

phf: macivory is an ivory on a board with all the i/o handled over a bus by a mac

asciilifeform: oh hm i thought phf had an ivory

phf: i don't have an alpha though, same reason i don't have a macivory, i don't want to have to study/rely on all these other architectures

asciilifeform: ( ivories, and xl1200, and i forget what else )

asciilifeform: i bid 2.6k usd on the ivory2 from earlier thread, then wss outbid, then offered nonbinding '2nd chance', but by then thought 'meh'

phf: my goal with that thing was to give it to zeptobars, but i'm not going to moscows for at least another 4 months

asciilifeform: overall i suspect this is a more productive attack than microscopy ( though the thing was fabbed at 1 uM, it would be quite visible on optical microscope )

phf: i'm not sure if it's working, it's from a "possibly broken" box, but i can lend you that one after i test it in my ivory, and if you have a viable project of some sort, i can probably get you more

phf: i suspect there's a handful of pals there?

asciilifeform: i can read the eprom, and the GALs

asciilifeform: literally everything else on that card, i have pinouts for, they are standard 1980s parts, it seems

asciilifeform: though the pinout is unknown, which is why i considered getting entire card

asciilifeform: phf: i already have a logic analyzer, but would have to get it attaches to the pins on that thing

a111: Logged on 2017-03-13 00:13 asciilifeform: !~later tell phf i dug out my crate of dead bolix boards, turns out i'm a chump, the pcb in question was a dead xl1200 ~i/o~ board. the only cpu on it is what looks like a z80! 0 smbx silicon.

a111: Logged on 2017-03-13 16:49 asciilifeform: !~later tell phf i was thinking' of buying that 'ivory' and making a signal interposer . any idea whether the magic cpu was soldered down, or LIF socketed..?

a111: Logged on 2017-03-18 14:19 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-18#1628912 << whoever it was, he has problems paying, apparently, i bid on the 'macivory' and ended up getting '2nd chance offer, high bidder didn't pay' from seller

phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-18#1628941 << he was offered an out on his later trades, because "why buy a macivory if you already bought a better macivory??", but i don't think he's going to take it ☝︎

ben_vulpes: the methodology i recall was 'for each tx, take top 32 bits, use as index into array, increment byte at offset"

ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-18#1628943 << shoot, no, but i'll rechurn and do so ☝︎

asciilifeform: i.e. 'we know about mircea_popescu's nuke, invent a magical bunker for us to hide in'

mircea_popescu: i know that out of the past 1mn i traded, 0% was on an exchange.

mircea_popescu: eh, "nearly 20 exchanges", wut. "exchange" idiots have managed to trade the 2012 situation, where they had gone from 0 to almost 50% of bitcoin trading for a slow and agonizing death. i'd be surprised if all of them (which within 90% is the first two) actually cover 10% of bitcoin for fiat trade.

asciilifeform: 'i can't believe it's not bitcoin'

mircea_popescu: why implement deeds stupidly ? dude i dunno, why does apple exist.

mircea_popescu: anywya, the reason i linked it is because obviously the ~whole space readily reduces to "what a number of people understood and remembered of what they at some point read on #trilema"

asciilifeform: i can see how it could exist, but not what the point is

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-18#1628934 << what were l0/l1 in the context? looks like i've fallen behind in altcoinology ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-03-18 05:56 ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-15#1627436 << i saw a few 2's scroll by while writing the index to disk, i'm going to spend some time staring at it myself and then share it around

a111: Logged on 2017-03-18 11:03 Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-10#1624858 << re rdtsc etc, i'm curious, does `grep -E '^model name|^cpu MHz' /proc/cpuinfo` consistently report to you mhz which are (+/-1 a mhz or so) equal to model frequency? (i know you can turn off linux powersaving etc features)

Framedragger: (also due to modern out-of-order execution in cpu pipelines, may need to force all commands before the rdtsc call to be 'flushed', i.e. to have completed before the counter instruction is called; just noting for self)

Framedragger: it doesn't do that for me (but i'm yet to double check that some 'additional' powersaving / freq scaling features are not enabled)

Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm probably doing sth wrong but now one of the two replies i just posted is marked as awaiting moderation and the other doesn't; sorry if i broke some bytes

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628879 < i suspek you may be pretty close to truth. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: Woodrow Wilson International Center << bwhahaha. i can hear the shocked butt tears of career middle aged wiminz from here. fuck you bitchez, shoulda learn to twerk when you had the chance. now go die in darkness. "bureaucracy career" my foot.

shinohai: !~later tell mod6 all the pherkin tests looked good, even when I intentionally muddle the press.

trinque: lol, in fact, isn't it whores that focus on the value proposition!? (I kid)

trinque: I'm not fucking anyone because "value"

pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628693 << i didn't know that there were ~any~ plusses to having just one girl. now i do! ☝︎

mod6: pete_dushenski: i never thought of it that way.

pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628641 >> snowboarding encourages this kind of flat ass falling. no wonder i'm noticing more girlies in 20s and 30s switching ~back~ to two planks after two decades of keeping up with the cool kids (who incidentally aren't cool anymore) ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 07:20 diana_coman: hm, the first thing I purposefully learnt when on skis was...how to fall; as in: how to fall *without* breaking anything etc

pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628632 << this is a good point actually. falling ~intentionally~ is exceedingly valuable. please to forgive my lack of qualifier in the article. I learned to ski when i was 3 and certainly can't remember those early learning days! ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 06:45 ben_vulpes: also helmets are hella comfy and i have nfi what you'd need peripheral vision for

pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628622 and http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628630 << you guys must've spent too much time together in portland. "gimme muh comfuurt!" an unexpected angle to be sure. can't say i quite agree as to the supreme value of wearing silk underwear on the daily. ☝︎☝︎

mircea_popescu: all they did were some reflectivity experiments, from what i gather. not really enough to put current through

asciilifeform: i thought that was a while ago ?

mircea_popescu: is tickled* i mean

mircea_popescu: i see no better.

mircea_popescu: trinque re reproduction : i understand what you're saying, but it's a broken view of human congenital effects. you're thinking "hey, genes are A-Z, types A1 to A9 and so following, sorted by quality. therefore, if guy with A1B2C1...Z2 etc is not fucking, all those yummy low digit genes will not be pumped into wombs, instead kids will be A9B8 etc".

trinque: as for the pills, I've seen more than a handful of girls get very boring on them, some with symptoms like constipation even.

trinque: I can see it; count your available supplies poorly and sure, get wiped

a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 12:46 mircea_popescu: as it happens i am not about to trade my insanely selected (not just http://trilema.com/2017/the-story-of-the-scared-slut/ should plainly indicate that scarcely a girl in a million makes it past my gates) toys for ... what the fuck for, $random-kid ? That's not for my sluts to do, that's for the 0 value redditards. for them, it's actually +ev. my girls have immensely more important shit to do, such as... everything else. the

trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628645 << nah nobody suggests doing that. I went looking for where you said something about wealthy muslims having the stables full of expendable males, didn't find. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: i can't tell you how great it is to have trilema. half the shit i forgot about by now, i can get lost in there for hours.

asciilifeform: i had a uni prof who was fond of keeping such a balloon on hand, and set it off during lecture when he suspected folx of dozing off

Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yeah, point taken. summer is approaching, and with it, more time "i promise guyz"

asciilifeform: Framedragger: i did this as a boy

Framedragger: yeah, it'll be on the list of shit i need to blog about :/

a111: Logged on 2017-03-10 14:50 Framedragger: i like my rc airplanes. "the will of history necessitates you to X" has a marx'ified hegelian vibe :p

asciilifeform: ok i was about to 'hmm he fucks lampreys doesnthe'

asciilifeform: i'd picture that there is not enough friction to grip. but if mircea_popescu has demonstrated experimentally -- i'll believe him

asciilifeform: it is not directly analogous, no. merely reminiscent. chick doesn't have a spindle glove can catch on and wind you around, crushing like insect ( at least mine doesn't, i can't speak for others ... )

asciilifeform: ( there is a very famous photo illustrating why not, i will leave it as exercise for reader, to find it )

asciilifeform: reminds me of how i was somewhat surprised to learn that pro machinists ~never wear gloves.

mircea_popescu: i always wondered, what do the "every sperm is sacred" folk think about the very natural refund ?

mircea_popescu: not in cheap hovels, from what i've seen

asciilifeform: i only ever saw it alive in c2 and c3

mircea_popescu: which is why i said she douches

mircea_popescu: and before, i expect, because hey, you might feel like eating her out ?

mircea_popescu: but ~everyone fucks on beds. i mean, i can see now and again taking girl out on nature walk and generously allowing her to lay on her back in the mud so you don't have to dirty yourself fucking her. but...

asciilifeform: matter of taste, neh. i imagine some people fuck in cosmonaut pressure suit.

mircea_popescu: i srsly have nfi why you'd want to.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628641 << i thought arse was amortizer!11 ☝︎

mircea_popescu: conceivably the technology improved since the 70s, but anyway. i like pills, they give the girls proper hormonal cycles. why shouldn't she pms ?

a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 12:46 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628626 << i don't see this at all. if you fuck a woman "normally" and she's not on the pill, you will obtain 8 kids in 10 years. you will also obtain an extremely shriveled woman, because like it or not females are essentially the cotyledon of children. biology is merciless and the ultimate empire, it dun care one whit your girl is smart and pleasant and worships you, it just cares to push o

a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 06:08 trinque: regarding the pill, I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's had a profound impact on female behavior.

asciilifeform: i thought 500 was moar of a sultan thing

a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 06:10 trinque: I think rather that it's a mark of a ~severely impoverished~ society that pregnancy is this harrowing pitfall

mircea_popescu: (i dunno if english has it, but the girl with the golden cunt is a sort of folk item in romanian. usually in "wtf has she got, is her cunt golden ?!" inquiries of exasperated exes.)

mircea_popescu: in other words, human society has advanced to the point where the spot on the r/K continuum that its primate biology has picked is insufficient. i want it way the fuck K-er, which is why my women reproduce through selecting and training other 16-25yo girls, not through having fucking babies.

mircea_popescu: as it happens i am not about to trade my insanely selected (not just http://trilema.com/2017/the-story-of-the-scared-slut/ should plainly indicate that scarcely a girl in a million makes it past my gates) toys for ... what the fuck for, $random-kid ?
