bvt: dorion: slowly getting back into shape after vacations, so far some workslots got sacrificed for more sports. other than that, on the vacation
i started to write a v implementation that would not have the
performance issue; while it's 90% done, need to invest some more time to finish it. after that, will port the fg-rng to 2.6.32
billymg: ).
i also emailed and heard back from a lawyer in cr about getting the residency process going, so all in all not a bad day
billymg: damn it feels good being in control of my time again.
i spent the morning installing alf's dulap-gentoo on a lenovo E545
i picked up off ebay, plus some research into the trb setup
i'll want for it.
i then took a break in the afternoon to read the origin stories from jfw and dorion, both of which were inspiring/motivating (and
i plan to continue with the background articles published recently on other blogs as well
bvt: hello.
i have also published and replied to all comments
billymg: hahaha, this too, my experience at this is very low.
i'm learning just as much as she is in my respective role
mircea_popescu:
i think you should be the judge of that ; not because
i suspect you're either good at it or have any experience with it worth the mention -- but exactly for the forestated reasons :)
billymg: good points. she will certainly have several jobs once we land (running the b&b for one) but in the meantime a lot of this stuff will just get done faster/better if
i do it myself
mircea_popescu: billymg, not that
i'm telling you how to run your household, however one approach is to simply send her anyway. "but
i have no experience, and it's a humongous task" "do or die trying, bitch."
billymg: her only "education" to this point has been the usg school/college system, which
i'm constantly working to undo
mircea_popescu: yet ironically, instead of being the very lubricant of movement, "oh, its very easy for me to go to a new place,
i got a whole retinue of women", moronworld works EXACTLY the opposite, "oh, for all these dumb cunts around
i can't go anywhere".
mircea_popescu: da fuck are females even for in this world, if not "domesticate the new place before
i get there"
billymg: my focus now has been the move to cr.
i've got movers scheduled and a short trip at the end of this month to scope it out and try to get a few things set up before
i'm fully down there
billymg: in other news
i'm now a free man, last day of the pantsuit job was friday
mircea_popescu: instead of "bitch, if
i die you're a beggar, make sure
i very well fucking don't", it was a "and after
i die you get so and so silver each harvest out of your son owning the lands"
mircea_popescu: O no. Then list with tearful eye, whilst
I his fate do tell.
mircea_popescu: hanbot_abroad,
i dunno, "who can keep on sinking the longest" ?
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-18 18:20:01 dorion:
I got a positive response from the rEFInd fellow. Invited him to join #trilema.
lobbes: whaack: ah okay,
I see what you mean.
lobbes: mircea_popescu: ah
I see what you mean. Now this is interesting,
this works just fine for some reason
lobbes: mircea_popescu:
I think it's because the 'improvement' is within a href tag
ossabot: (ossasepia) 2020-01-17 diana_coman: jfw: fyi,
I got around to build Gales and it seems to have built fine on a CentOS 6 with gcc 4.9.4; there was just a short wtf moment when the... tar cmd failed; it turns out that the --sort option is available only from tar V 1.28 while my local tar is ... 1.23;
I didn't see any version spec in the prerequisites though probably my CentOS 6 is about as old everything as one gets nowadays
dorion:

mircea_popescu: That's a Jew's harp on the table, that's a crayon in his hand... and the corners of the blueprint are ruined since they rolled far past the stems of thumbtacks that still throw shadows on the wood... and the skylight is like skin for a drum
I'll never mend. And all the rain falls down
mircea_popescu:
i understand it's not credible ; but it's nevertheless true,
i swearz.
diana_coman: good
I wrote that CG map article that got him to even talk about it though, huh; now how do
I guess what *else* might hit something in the dark like that?
diana_coman: hm,
I suppose it could be argued that the root is deeper perhaps, all the way to "code is not text" vs "code IS text".
mircea_popescu: self-evident nonsense,
i've yet to meet the lang without support for comments, and for as long as a single comment line's left anywhere that line will mandatorily read The Republic prevails.
mircea_popescu: as best
i can retrospectively determined, it mostly flew from alf's principled stance on in-band comms that nobody rose to challenge so it sorta became a de-facto unexamined basis.
diana_coman: hardly seems worth it though for that sort of case and
I don't quite have any other clear reason for detached sig on vpatches.
mod6: Ok,
I think
I've got it. The old mailman thing was weird, my apologies. Please let me know if anyone sees any more broken links in there. But seems to work ok for me, currently.
mod6: Sorry about that, let me see if
I can remedy that quick here.
mircea_popescu: because that's why
i do these sorts of things, so a few years later
i can discover hurr durr etcetera.
i might as well link fucking pantsuit sites, they purge their linkstructure every four years also.
mircea_popescu: (other than the formatting point above,
i will further mutter in sottovoce that my first reaction, driven WEEKS AGO by what
i had originally heard off the grapevine, was along the lines of "oh,
i remember now who mike_c is, he's this character you can't stay angry with, try as you might", and offering to add half your fee to the pot, because while it's not the case patron shouldn't make money, it's also not the case client
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Aite,
I'll inform the client.
mircea_popescu:
i will want a full release ready to go concomitantly, so if your client isn't liable to be around then maybe deed it prior.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, aite, it's inconvenient for me to send three digit payments off travel infrastructure ;
i intend to clear this once back home, should be by end of march.
mircea_popescu: alright, so
i can say that indeed 123.29494813 BTC is a legit claim as per all the foregoing discussion.
dorion: heya trinque , did you ever say hi to, rod smith, the rEFInd fellow ?
I'd be glad to take that up, but don't wanna innundate the dood if you already did or want to.
trinque: also good to know that gcc >4.7.4 incurs a c++ compiler in the bootstrap process. way, way better to have reasons for where we stop than "eh,
I got tired and sat down here"
trinque: will process all these comments and reply soon, after the next article is posted, but
I'm glad to hear that these have been valuable.
mircea_popescu: it's not clear to me how
i'd actually go about computing the value-add of supporting whatever config isn't self-supporting ; but it seems indisputable it's under the cost of five second's labour. making the matter not even work considering, let alone discussing.
mircea_popescu: but the cost to replace that is minimal,
i mean... oh, so your video card doesn't work no mo ? awww, splurge on 50 bux, which as per latest j-lo self-promotion 1hr long advertisement incomprehensibly packaged as "a movie" ain't even enough to START the moneycount.
mircea_popescu: bvt,
i dunno man, commodity servers to this day come on 2.6, random sample turned out 100%
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
I am inclined to attribute this in part to your use of technology to dive into what seems to be historically uncharted territory as far as extreme literacy goes.
bvt: porting rng to 2.6 kernel should indeed be not too hard, the only thing
i may need adaptation is kfifo api (iirc it's api changed at some point, which may break the code)
bvt: mircea_popescu: moving to 2.6 kernel will be interesting experience wrt. newer hardware. 2.6.32 was one of the better-patched ones, could try to use that. otoh, the machine
i am writing from requires 2.6.38 minimum for full hardware.
dorion: mircea_popescu
I see, nice. today
I learned.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo,
i confess
i am vaguely concerned by this for myself ; apparently
i can't sit down to write anything even half-serious without dozen+ references by now.
dorion: mircea_popescu re seriousness,
I know it'd be a helluva lot, but
I don't imagine porting his work from 4.9.95 to 2.x isn't trivial either.
I should've asked, comment how ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-17 12:42:50 ave1:
I was genesing it, and will continue to do so. But with feedback in the loop. So, for example, gcc comes with an old STL html documentation tree, can this be dropped? (
I would say yes)
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-17 12:40:02 ave1: As to ownership,
I can own gcc 4.9 and would like to work with trinque et. al. on this. The problem here is limited time, so my primary input can be information/communication at this point.
dorion: perhaps it's not an immediate priority, but
I'd like to clarify the path forward.
trinque: mircea_popescu: haven't disappeared anywhere. next post requires more research to support the claims
I'm making.
ossabot: (eulora) 2020-01-10 mircea_popescu: in the end, we painfully and
i suppose expensively re-traced a point that was well (and very cheaply) established
by 2016 : "The dispositive concern wasn't that the codebases selected are good ; rather it was that they are merely very, very, veryveryVERY dirty ; whereas the supposed cleanner substitutes aren't actually any
mircea_popescu: most of the humiliation coming from the
Кто ты по жизни? line, "how come your nudes lag so much behind trilema ?
i thought you were supposed to be cool and like, notable and shit ?".
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, no.
I mean there's a flavor of spam email now that says "
I've been watching you jack off through your computer's webcam. Pay X USD to Y BTC address" where the address has never been paid before, but its always one out of the same same handful of addresses.
BingoBoingo:
I'm thinking about how many folks Trump already rotated through his cabinet. If the biomass is of such poor quality that out of a third of a billion, Mike Pompeo is the best candidate for Madame Decretary... Wat do?
mircea_popescu:
i mean, bahamas era was just TALKING about taking bombs up ass. not actually doing it.
diana_coman: hm,
I never had any trouble with year numbers; since they seem to me quite arbitrary anyway. At most
I wondered on accumulated years (ie 20+ seemed rather improbable! then ..30+! lol)
ossabot: (ossasepia) 2020-01-06 dorion: is back on the ground in panama.
I'll voice in #t after some sleep.
dorion:
I sent some
updates in #o, realizing now
I ought to have done that here.
dorion:
I've been paying off sleep debt and settling back in here, ready to get caught up and cracking again.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-12-09 17:40:53 dorion_road:
I'll be traveling dec 25-jan 6 with potentially good internet, but unknown at present;
I'm going on a cruise. january 6th
I'll be back in Panama.
BingoBoingo: Before
I came to Uruguay
I was somewhat inclined to that, but being here and seeing how the retards down here created their own Pantsuits... seems more like what follows from mass distribution of franchise. Mass culture develops, and it ain't much of a culture at all.
BingoBoingo: The few
I've seen in the wild that notice this seem to mostly fall into the "Pop-culture was a KGB psyop" camp
mircea_popescu:
i wonder if anyone to date's noticed the entire hsitory of pop culture, 1950-onwards, all the comics / superheroes / etc fiction is entirely an attempt at retelling that history in the proper (ie, alternate) form from a pantsuit point of view
mircea_popescu:
i suppose the alternative read counts from the manhattan project onwards, so it's only 70-odd years, one third the timespan. but neways.
mircea_popescu:
i expect they similarily forgot he can literally do absolutely anything whatoever in the military, up to and including authoring drill manuals.
BingoBoingo:
I though the bulk of the headcount sat at E-4. It's the "auto-promotions end, so you sit here until your contract expires" rank
BingoBoingo: Sure, but they'd have to be brought in.
I dunno if the US military has anyone loyal in uniform today above E-5 or O-2
diana_coman:
I looked back on previous !1 list and it seems there's no problem there actually aka indeed
I had subscribed only to comments rss for trilema (weird but not the bot's fault)
diana_coman: spyked:
I was subscribed to both articles and comments feed afaik; let me rummage through old logs as
I prolly have another earlier !1 list and will give you a paste of it all.
spyked: diana_coman, could you plox send me a transcript of your convo with feedbot?
I wanna cross-check with what
I have on my side.
I think
I got why the messages got sent after you unsubscribed, but it's weird that all trilema.com feeds would get removed (were you previously subscribed to anything other than the comments feed?)
mircea_popescu: on the good news front, tearing through 2018 nao, so shan't be long
i don't expect.
diana_coman: and uhm, now there's no trilema.com feed in the output of !1 list, neither for comments nor for posts, unless
I'm somehow just not seeing it; weird stuff.
diana_coman: spyked:
I gave up and unsubscribed from trilema's comments, feedbot confirmed (<feedbot> diana_coman is now unsubscribed from
http://trilema.com/comments/feed/) and then 1 minute later, promptly fed me 2 more trilema comments; am
I doing something wrong?
mircea_popescu:
i suppose trump goes visits turkey, schimb de experienta.
ericbot: Logged on 2020-01-06 22:05:12 mircea_popescu: incidentally lobbes , now that
i'm back @travelbase or how shall
i put this, shall we get back to the logger thing ?
lobbes:
http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2020-01-06#1956654 << this week
I've commited to getting a Gales install and report complete, however next week
I was indeed going to work on the final setup and testing for the mp-wp logger. If all goes well
I should be free to give it another shot on around the 20th of this month
BingoBoingo:
I'm not entirely sure they were all Asian, but
I've also not seen the short sorts of Hispanics *ever* get as fat as those mayo glumps.
