mircea_popescu: anyway, tbh i'm mostly encouraging the utter collapse of freenode's "security" model. it should be obvious that lode/ae dorks could just

as to get with what to gossipd.
mircea_popescu: anyway ; none of this is intended to discourage anyone from inviting people over. but exactly
as detailed in ye things have changed article, the "general population" of herbivores has lost the franchise of coming here of own power. it'll be invite only.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-04 00:11 mod6: Attn Pizarro Customers: The auction was settled at $8200.00, and will be used
as the price point for August invoices.
ben_vulpes: billing
as soon
as the price signal is set avoids further waffling over spread between when price signal is set and when bills go out. necessarily entails a move to billing in advance.
trinque isn't pissed, just asking the question,
as I didn't see an announcement
mod6: ben_vulpes said at the end of last month that I should send the august ones
as soon
as I have the price point. which is also what I committed to doing when we had this last go-around a week ago.

☟︎ mod6: if I wanted to bid on the wFF (wired filthy fiats), i might for instance take the current price, $7,333 USD/BTC price and then bid
as such:
mod6: So let's talk through this a bit, I want to try to understand fully here, and perhaps others do
as well...
mircea_popescu: aaanyway. so it turns out "2 slot" is really 2010s era fakery, not really used
as such. and i fell for it!

as reimaging station for rockchippen , but s.mg prolly can safely say goodbye to usb3 )
mircea_popescu: yes, you miss out on downloading sony camera contents in such a manner
as the "your media contains pictures!!!" popup can shoot "usefully fast". this is not a permitted usecase anyway.
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing
as data that is all three of 1) random ; 2) useful and 3) buffered.
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2018-08-01 16:03 asciilifeform: 'After much researching it seems this is NOT a driver bug but a CHANGE in the kernel Serial API semantics. What has happened is that the API now blocks when a Serial device is not indicating it is ready. This included 'open' on a serial device which now can block. Since lots of RS232 serial devices do not bother with any control signals such
as DCD (data carrier detect) they never indicate they are ready and open blocks. This is the
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform is there some way to connect
as a tty bypass the usb altogether ? i really dun wanna include usb if can be helped.
mircea_popescu:
as in, "i checked, we don't have" or
as in "we couldn't possibly have something this fucking stupid o oops there it is how the hell did it sneak in"
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I get
as I recalled this "[63939.499700] pl2303 ttyUSB0: usb_serial_generic_read_bulk_callback - urb stopped: -32" but I don't see the others, hmm
diana_coman: mod6, I'd say don't worry about it;
as a rule though productive people do stuff, not
as if they need to "say" productively things
diana_coman: myeah,
as battlefield solution that might be the direction to take
diana_coman: <asciilifeform> i suspect an oddity with the linux tty subsystem. the Right Thing solution would be to find it. the alternative, ugly solution, is 1) 512 byte buffered reads 2) with timeout . -> this is pretty much my current understanding
as well
diana_coman: anyways, dd hangs *sometimes*, harder to pin down ; ftr I DID go and read the dd code too but I can't say I'm any wiser
as to why/how it is more resilient
diana_coman: aha; good to know at least it's not *just* that machine; might be worth to try replicating the dd hang
as well , although by now I expect it will happen
diana_coman: I start suspecting it's maybe something to do with short+frequent reads
as weirdly enough tests that read 4096 bytes seem... fine
douchebag: Things are going very well, next month we're going to have a lot of news coverage due to some audits we did. We managed to find tons of 0days in an open source medical CMS
as well
as a IP Relay service used in much of Canada.
mircea_popescu: it was supposed to be "christian".
as in, "they're who you're gonna run into in heaven, god's own most beloved children, the idiots."
mircea_popescu: no, because the cure would have been for their father to tie them to the same bed post
as the stupid mother and beat both senseless the moment the "oh you're special and can do anything" nonsense came out of her mouth.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, but think about it. could have had shinohai's lordship, if only ritalin actually worked
as an add cure.
BingoBoingo: mod6: There's the douchebag one
as well. I am waiting on alf to give the order before I touch either of them.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, that's literally what ended up
as main test because convenient: it attempts to generate 11 "dirty float" random numbers using 4 random octets from fg; first number there is number of repetitions; second number chooses what test to run (if you run only ./tests 11 without 2nd number it will print the list of what it knows to do)
diana_coman:
as it is, it will have to wait until tomorrow anyway
as atm I'm a bit at a loss wtf
diana_coman: basically
as the "wobble" initially reported: if only one fg is set, then first read via dd hangs just the same
a111: Logged on 2018-07-12 13:49 diana_coman: asciilifeform, BingoBoingo access to box & config confirmed; FG on ttysUSB0 had a wobble at first and I don't understand why: I ran the stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 raw -echo -echoe -echok and then tried dd iflag=fullblock if=/dev/ttyUSB0 | hexdump -C but nothing came up; then I ran the stty on usb1
as well and tried again and it...worked; any idea wtf was that at first?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, ahaha dadatroll; but now I see why it didn't even ring a bell at all
as I probably missed the comments section there/didn't follow it
mircea_popescu: zombie is not just (
as an inexistent, imaginary "manual" mentally reconstructed from the pile of gunk they published purports to hint) an entry in the table to permit the caller to clean up correctly. it is ALL SORTS of things, and generally of the getting in the way kind.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, I don't recall it but sounds apt (
as dr. a does wherever I read him)
phf: henceforth any attempts to expose the activities of the secret society of illuminated fraudsters shall be denounced
as a ravings of delusional paranoids
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I even have the .sh + set it in cron, yes; the thing is that code has no idea so it would logically set it up
as it wants it but...
diana_coman: it should be, yes;
as far
as I can tell at a quick look at truerandom.c it is too
diana_coman: uhm, for one thing: it's init in c code
as well so..uhm

BingoBoingo: In that case you could get her delivered to your mountain and get a start
as a banana plantation owner.
mircea_popescu: yes,
as to the climate, it's perfect and eternal spring. yes,
as to the land, it's fucking beautiful, and the pineapple is fabulous and the coffee is best-in-the-world and so on.
mircea_popescu: intellectual sophistication to cut it
as a slavegirl in my harem. i said before, "There's not who'd compete and there's not how to compete with her, it's a laughable proposition, like a samurai at a kindergarten." and yes that is after training. but all the training in the world can't help the instant kindergartner.

mircea_popescu: lobbes nothing wrong with that. i think it's both sound a decision in general and your call to make in any case. but it gotta be communicated
as such.

As it is, I already need to get the 'legacy' auctionbot away from heathen dependencies (in this case, the 'supybot' api), so in building this custom auctionbot for pizarro I may just take the opportunity to design something sitting atop ircbot/logbot and eventually release a proper genesis

AS FUCK, SHIT MAY NOT WORK
mircea_popescu: art is condemned
as "lacking broad meaning" or
as "unrelated to real life" these accusations often disguise the fear that the exact opposite is true -- that this deviation has too much meaning and bears too acute a relation to life to be reconciled with the common myth."
mircea_popescu: "But the genuine work of art, going past the formulated common experience, may succeed in communicating the common situation -- all too clearly from the point of view of the guardians of stasis. I doubt that those in authority would be so violently opposed to authentic art if,
as they claim, it revealed only the private personality of the artist and had no further reference. On the contrary, I am inclined to believe that when

mircea_popescu: and that the failure works exactly
as rosenberg describes : in trying to elide the commonality to situation, they recourse to a hallucinary commonality of experience, and method.
mircea_popescu: and that it hasn't merely failed happenstantially, but that it has failed necessarily and substantially : there can not be such a thing
as a herd pov of human experience, simply because herd perspectives are falsifying, and in THAT of being of the many, therefore they are false.
mircea_popescu: 's "palace"
as preserved in folklore includes all the features of a well-to-do peasant's house, and activities there pertaining. what's to keep the king from going to wait in the veranda ?).
a111: Logged on 2015-01-21 01:37 mircea_popescu: very common problem people have on the internet, the "everyone is
as stupid
as me / everyone's a goat the same gender and age
as me" issue.
diana_coman: ok, invoice me
as ^ for 1 year then please, mod6
trinque: there are a finite amount of "the interface slipped thousands of funnybux between auction and invoice" that I will eat, and I will proably eat more of them than other customers that don't know you
as well
mircea_popescu: there is some wiggle room in the sense that banks are unreliable and so if it does come out it's impossible to wire
as intended, the trade just unwinds.
mod6: The fact is, until we have a steady stream of usd coming in, I hesitate to put a date on it -- can only say at this time, "will do best to have them out
as soon
as we can after the auction". It's my fault that I didn't start invoicing right away. I mearly did not, because I thought that these were sent at the end of the month.
mod6: We ideally want to do them
as soon
as the price signal is placed.
mod6: (these invoices are coming in way late -- should have been done
as soon
as the price point was set)
