asciilifeform: i may have mentioned, built exactly similar 'motorcycle' 2y ago, and to same result.
asciilifeform: properly-trimmed linux userland , i suspect , would run entirely usably in 'tmsr mips'-on-ice40.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i suspect this hypothesis extends just the same to iron.
a111: Logged on 2019-06-04 00:51 asciilifeform: incidentally, i generate these by machine, and it takes about 3sec per. would have put it as a net-connected hopper thing aeons ago, BUT it of course uses a heathen render (there are no 'demonstrably electrically correct' pdf eaters, and i dun expect one to exist) and suffers from the obvious problem
mp_en_viaje: basically, a flat rejection of the userland past 10 years or so is the ~exact equivalent of not talking to indians in call centers on the phone. "i'll just talk to the manager, get lost paki."
mp_en_viaje: "but mp, if you don't get latest chromed piss you can't connect to appsites like fetlife". like hell i can't! i wouldn't fucking use their idiotic interface to interact with their own backend/userbase/wife-and-daugther if they fucking paid me anyways.
mp_en_viaje: e advances" in gaming and the web is STILL better seen through lynx than through firecrash/chromeburn. what, i lose out on loading github ? linkedin ? lordy. ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: then again, i can not name any program published after... uh i dunno, 2005 or so that i actually fucking use. a large part of the advantage in dealing with these idiots is still ye same old : nobody needs aything they "did" for anything. much like i have no use for "all the advances" in bitcoin (what, segwit ? bwahahaha) i also don't have any use for "all th
a111: Logged on 2018-10-26 02:14 asciilifeform: meanwhile, in gnat bugs : apparently ( and this is documented or mentioned nowhere ) : it is impossible to have a Ada.Finalization.Limited_Controlled type ANYWHERE inside a static library, unless it is generic all the way down (i.e. if the lib package is generic, any sub-packages must also be instantiated as generics )
a111: Logged on 2019-07-17 01:21 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-16#1922900 << i dunthink i've ever witnessed the corrupted db (tho i believe the folx who have.) possibly because i have never run node off anything other than always-on sinusoidal inverter ups, tho
mp_en_viaje: besides the "i utterly hate the republic and wish to fuck it over", there's no incentive for the stance available.
mp_en_viaje: if it's not fixed and not abandoned you are raising flags of rebellipon, and i will cut heads.
asciilifeform: i dun even have that patch on my hdd, turns out
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-17#1922915 << i dunno, ima take a stab in the dark here and guess ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: unrelated, i found 1 of your belarus tomb folx, comment in mod queue.
mp_en_viaje: i dun think i actually moved to 3 branch.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: rk and dulap 4.x , but heavily hand-cut. ( and i suspect can be cut further still . ) i dun operate kernels other than hand-cut.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i suspect 2013 era kernels prolly last usable anyways.
asciilifeform: ( i expect one can use any whatsoever. my patch will only cleanly work with 2.6+, 2.4.x had very different api for deviceisms )
deedbot: 2019/07/14 22:26:25 <trinque> I'm sure it does feel like a bit of gruntwork, and yet, later you will always have that curl, and it will always build.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-15 10:05 diana_coman: trinque: from what I see though the genesis.vpatch is a snapshot of /cuntoo/portage dir *only* which means that the actual tarballs with the code are not included anyway - so basically it will still fail to find them as soon as whatever URI in the ebuild doesn't host them anymore, what am I missing?
asciilifeform: ftr the last version of buildroot that does 100% Right Thing (i.e. built working kernel + userland) is 2013.08-rc1 .
asciilifeform: ( how ? e.g. 'b _end_cycle if $r9==0xdeadf00d' will stop when 'program counter' reg of mips is equal to 0xdeadf00d', then single-step to see what instr dispatched... then 'i r' and see regs. etc )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i expect it'll be somewhat easier than the piece already done.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-17 00:57 asciilifeform: near as i can guess, this was done in order to help kill loongson sinomips.
asciilifeform: btw for thread-completeness -- the 'weird-endian' puzzle had simple answer : turns out the mips arch uses 'little' representation for the instructions per se, even on 'big' machine. the rationale for this, was that the instr. length is fixed, and jumps into unaligned addresses are forbidden (i.e. iron will not load an instruction from an addr that doesn't end with 2 (on 64bit -- 3) zero bi ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-17#1922941 << afaik all the airlines still are using the ~physically same~ ibm mainframes as in 1990. ( simply, in 'civilized' world, the agents run 'terminal' proggy under microshit. whereas in orclands, ye olde ibm glass terminals. i saw one in e.g. argentina, in coupla places ) ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: it dun even ~have~ to be mips, i picked it cuz it is the 'smallest' , moving-parts-wise, arch, for which there was existing gcc back-end.
asciilifeform: the incident where i glued together rk pilot plant, to only ~then~ find out that nobody knows when the fuck proper gnat will actually build arm binaries w/ working threading, was instructive. ☟︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-17#1922928 << ftr i had to disasm his demo kernel to find how the fuck he made it go with the simplistic mips timer. (why ? cuz linux porting docs -- lie !) ☝︎☝︎
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i don't have anything running a 2.x, and haven't for some years ( ye olde 'wrt54g' was i think the last piece of iron i had which ran one )
a111: Logged on 2019-07-16 21:52 asciilifeform: re that kernel -- someone gotta genesis a kernel. ( if no one has any constructive input re ~which~ one, then i will, and it will be somewhat arbitrary. ) atm that patch is a bad-old-style patch, rather than vpatch.
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-16#1922889 << i thought we were mostly using 2.6 - 2.9 sorta thing ? is everyone really on 3 branch ? ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: i guess by now we all hold the key usage longivity records.
mp_en_viaje: i'm like "fucker... why the fuck am i talking to you. are you even in show business ?!"
a111: Logged on 2019-07-16 21:38 asciilifeform: orig. author of 'cmips' btw was of 0 use, i wrote to him a while back and not long ago he answerd 'i lost hdd, lost errything'
a111: Logged on 2019-07-16 22:25 mod6: Couple of other things that I wanted to mention quick, girlattorney: Just be sure to make frequent backups of your entire blockchain. Be aware also that TRB does not handle power-outtages very nicely as BDB can get corrupted; UPS and the like can help to mitigate this.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-16#1922900 << imho it is foolish to take down a trb noad (i.e. allow it to fall behind) simply to copy the db. the best backup for a trb noad is a 2nd, 3rd,... node. ☝︎

And it most likely would need to be "re-ground" to apply cleanly ontop of your current pressed tree. However, if we can find a time where we could work together on it, I might be able to help you get that part going.

mod6: Hey there, I've been pretty pinned down with some secular things in the past 10 days or so. Still catching up on logs+blogs here... saw the discussion earlier from girlattorney.

asciilifeform: possibly i was thinking about 'bitvps'

lobbesbot: girlattorney: Sent 12 minutes ago: <BingoBoingo> It appears you are looking to set up a blog. http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-16#1922579 I can get you a place to blog set up by the end of the day http://pizarroisp.net/shared-hosting/

asciilifeform: speaking of which, from old compendium of 'militarisms' : new division commander shows up, and , to the troops lined up on platz, utters : 'i will discipline just like you know from kindergarten : some to tribunal, some will be shot in front of the regiment... '
mp_en_viaje is not the definitive eye in such matters, for one thing little practice and for the other i suspect i have mild case of asciilifeformism.
diana_coman: myeah, if only I had a logger in there so I can point to logs...
mp_en_viaje: ah ? i stand corrected then.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, there doesn't seem to be much value there tbh. the main item with these is "do i have any reason to suspect there may be live humans invovled anywhere". which is why fetlife and not okcupid, forinstance, to take that example.
mp_en_viaje: speaking of which, i wonder what happened to phf
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: myeah re won't spend life supporting them for sure; re script tbh it's such a pile of "open source" that I'm not even sure I'll spend my life making a script for it.
mp_en_viaje: ie, i'll be in kiev towards the end of the month, and she'll http://trilema.com/2017/the-day-of-failure-trilemma/#selection-205.565-213.535 all over self, and that's that, another dead soul for the count.
mp_en_viaje: sooo... this month's been the largest trilema outpour (by count) since... like 2017 or so i think. go me.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-16 12:52 asciilifeform: trb, unlike prb, does not accept blocks 'on credit' (i.e. ones for whom the antecedent block is not yet on the disk)
a111: Logged on 2019-07-16 12:29 girlattorney: asciilifeform that's something interesting: once (not now, a couple of days ago) i was able to get to the general height, thanks to a couple of restart that allowed me to get those last blocks (it seems that when TRB starts, always download instantly 10-15 blocks). Basically when it was at the network height (synced) it was also connecting to core
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: ah, I'm not complaining really, it's ...another world, what can I say; just still puzzled as to how they reason there
diana_coman: in my many wtf from the dev.to expedition: most (and by this I do mean 90%) of the profiles in there list "looking for work" but then not even one of those actually inquired there at "come work on what matters", not even a "where?" or anything (and they saw it, yes, the "heart" it but won't say a peep)
asciilifeform: girlattorney: you did not specify your geography, so i assumed usa (not because always assume usa, but because it is country with world's worst bandwidth market. as in, behind nigeria, congo, et al )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: lolyes. i also like 'gas modem'.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-27 21:37 mircea_popescu: which i suppose is the main strategic direction of tmsr - in a few years they either pay us to "secure" all systems or else the systems burn down.
mp_en_viaje: i got http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-02#1494775 and http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-27#1591387 ; none of which are, infuriatingly, it. ☝︎☝︎
girlattorney: not for free, they pay it with debt, but still as user i get the product
girlattorney: i asked to the local fiberman, they quoted me 5k USD to dig up to my premise and lay fiber
asciilifeform: aa aa, i read it backwards, thought it was re 'usg deny' rather than 'deny usg' lol
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2015-07-24#1211049 is either reference or early disclosure, wtf where did i put the cannonical form ☝︎
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: if you can recall coupla details re thread, i can prolly remember it
girlattorney: and for me it's a pain cause i'm behind a VDSL connection. No FTTH. Copper attenuation is still a real thing and the modem likes to reboot
asciilifeform: tunnel method worx, but imposes considerably overhead, girlattorney , you will want to get a serious pipe. i don't imagine it is a painful expense for attourney
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, do you happen to have handy where in log i outlined strategy, "first, deny usg use of network, then deny use of land" etc ?
girlattorney: so everytime I cycle the modem i also need to cycle my box
girlattorney: currently i'm trying to obtain IP space, after i'll announce my node
girlattorney: i hope so, cause i was starting to thinking that TRB getting stuck fetching the last blocks could because the local address
asciilifeform: i will sign (and expect that other folx also will)
girlattorney: when i ran TRB in a box with a public routable address, there also was the double addrLocalHost, but always with the same public routable address
girlattorney: already doing that in the log that i linked
girlattorney: yes, i'm able to connect externally, my question is: can i tell TRB to not announce my local address?
girlattorney: but i'm using a tunnel
girlattorney: of course i am
girlattorney: ah ok now i get it
girlattorney: so i can just cp -r the dir already compiled on x86 on the arm board?
asciilifeform: i.e. repeatable build, doesn't care what's on your box currently
girlattorney: i get your point, i just sell them because i get my %
asciilifeform: witness e.g. the various folx who publicly nervous breakdown from 'i threw out disk with keys, could have been rich!111' etc
