punkman: "A friend once asked me to watch a video with her that she was going to display on her computer using Netflix. I declined, saying that Netflix was such an affront to freedom that I could not be party to its use under any circumstances whatsoever." -- RMS
cazalla: punkman, sounds like george constanza and not liking coffee ☟︎
punkman: the hard life of the RMS groupie
asciilifeform: y'know, if folks had listened to rms, we might still have actual computers.
asciilifeform: (not that it was remotely conceivable that they would have listened, aha)
BingoBoingo: But "Netflix and chill" is the new "come in for coffee"
punkman: asciilifeform: the *right* folks
punkman: btw does Lemote still make any hardware that don't need blobs?
asciilifeform: it makes ~something~ but it is unobtainable outside cn
asciilifeform: also it switched to using licensed chip masks from the west, a few years back
asciilifeform: which is when i lost what remaining interest i had.
asciilifeform: as for rms, his lemote was stolen, in buenos aires, and - afaik - he was never able to purchase another.
asciilifeform: the thing is a mega-rarity, 'collectible' perhaps at this point, if you come across one, leave it in the crate, sell for $$$$
asciilifeform: fwiw, AMD's G-series chipset will run without blobs.
asciilifeform: (their 'coreboot' aka linuxbios is distributed with binary turds, BUT the source for them is also included, you just need to set up their weird toolchain)
BingoBoingo: !up drnet
mod6: <+danielpbarron> ;;later tell mod6 all these big mpoe trades scared away your twatterbot << thanks for the heads up
punkman: https://libreboot.org/faq/#amd libreboot faq is handy
assbot: Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about libreboot ... ( http://bit.ly/23dppqG )
gernika: asciilifeform: does the term "human compiler" reference lisp specifically, in that with lisp you can write code that writes code, thus if you're not using lisp, you're writing code that could have been written by a computer, and are thus "compiling?"
gernika: also for this question, lisp=common lisp
punkman: asciilifeform: any devices with AMD G-series?
asciilifeform: punkman: the pcengines box (at least the ones i have)
asciilifeform: possibly other 'low-end' amd
asciilifeform: but, importantly,
asciilifeform: not for long.
asciilifeform: that much is obvious.
asciilifeform: according to the libreboot link, amd has fully caught up with intel in re: usgtronics.
asciilifeform: gernika: very generally, but yes
asciilifeform: gotta love how the coreboot folks pretend that they are somehow still relevant by way of supporting a handful of unobtainable chips
asciilifeform: (srsly, powerpc !?!!)
punkman: http://www.gizmosphere.org/products/gizmo-2/ found one
assbot: Gizmo 2 | GizmoSphere ... ( http://bit.ly/1n8AbNG )
asciilifeform: punkman: same chipset as in pcengines
asciilifeform: i have a 'gizmo 1'
asciilifeform: these also appeared in some low-end notebooks
punkman: why doesn't libreboot support any g-series?
asciilifeform: iirc it is a 'stable' fork of coreboot
punkman: nah, the difference is they don't allow any blobs
asciilifeform: fwiw the pcengines boards and the 'gizmo' series don't even ship with proprietary bios at all
punkman: maybe nobody's done it yet
asciilifeform: punkman: the g-series coreboot i have here has 'blobs' per the strictest definition, they are - iirc - modify but don't redistribute - licensed by amd
asciilifeform: but came with the src.
asciilifeform: and also they concern acpi, which can be safely ditched if running a sane os
punkman: now if only I could get g-series with ECC I'd be very happy
asciilifeform: punkman: no such thing offered afaik.
asciilifeform: at any rate, i cannot recommend any presently-manufactured x86 chipset except as a 'lesser evil'

asciilifeform: x86 is and was a turd, per se

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-01-2016#1377917 << i must point out that the whole 'seeding' concept - as contemplated in the dark ages pre-trb client - is profoundly braindamaged. ☝︎

asciilifeform: it is entirely, thoroughly The Wrong Thing
asciilifeform: and is responsible for many of the present woes.
punkman: suppose I have two dozen nodes on dynamic IP
asciilifeform: the ~correct~ behaviour for a node is to service a hand-picked set of trusted peers ☟︎
asciilifeform: AND OPTIONALLY - as resources are available - folks who knock on the door.
asciilifeform: IN THAT ORDER.
asciilifeform: and never otherwise.
punkman: I can give you a secret phrase, which if hashed and used as torrent infohash, allows you to get my current IPs from torrent tracker
asciilifeform: why do we need the motherfucking middleman ?!!!!!
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 44500 @ 0.00056604 = 25.1888 BTC [-]
asciilifeform: so i will review, for the benefit of non-panzers, the current state ☟︎
asciilifeform: presently trb does not have this sane behaviour ☟︎
asciilifeform: it can run in one of two modes, '-connect' where it services a fixed list of peers, AND NOBODY ELSE (no incoming tcp)
asciilifeform: or '-addnode' where it takes a list of peers but 'as mere suggestions' and will happily drop'em, and connect to random derps
asciilifeform: the first mode can be disregarded as it does not result in a public node. it is useful for running hotwallets on your own lan, for running mircea_popescu-style 'dark' nodes over ad hoc vpn with kim jong il, etc.
asciilifeform: the second mode is what all of my trb boxen are set to, and it results in a comedy where the thing routinely drops friends on the floor and dallies about attempting to connect to randomly-selected derp ips
mircea_popescu: prolly next to fix huh
mircea_popescu: tho it's tangled with the whole mempool priority thing
asciilifeform: nope
ben_vulpes: tangled how?
asciilifeform: not really, no
mircea_popescu: how do you know how to value "others"
asciilifeform: easy
asciilifeform: they rank STRICTLY below hand-picked peers.
mircea_popescu: among themselves i mean.
asciilifeform: i am contemplating a strictly 2-tiered hierarchy here.
mircea_popescu: and how much is "strictly" in integers
mircea_popescu: seems to me if gonna do it might as well do it once, but anyway.
asciilifeform: 'strictly' means that door-knockers get serviced ONLY when friends are idle.
asciilifeform: i've held off attempting to do anything about this because 'usg can diddle packets arbitrarily, we need gossipd' but there is no particular logic to this.
mircea_popescu: this will never occur.
mircea_popescu: think of how the mempool flows
asciilifeform: gotta quantize the processing.
asciilifeform: i.e. meter resource consumption per peer.
asciilifeform: stray dogs ought to get the crumbs off the table.
mircea_popescu: aha
thestringpuller: looks like trb will have gossipd support?
asciilifeform: what was the mircea_popescu piece, 'carnita, lu' fetita, si osoiul, lu' baboiul'
asciilifeform: (ro dante ?)
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: the everybody-is-equal thing is not sustainable
asciilifeform: it has been kept up long past expiration date as it is
punkman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzrxvpG2_Sk
assbot: Taraf de Haïdouks - "Clejani Love Song" - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/23dxlYY )
thestringpuller: is there no manual approach for this process yet? i.e. people sign/deed node ip address. you use -connect flag
asciilifeform: and i dare say that this will become more apparent as 'axe time, sword time' carries on
thestringpuller: -connect/-addnode should make those peers the priority first and drop other nodes second
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: we don't currently have anything like a scheduler

asciilifeform: but going back up the stack, i want to highlight how retarded the whole seed pool thing is
asciilifeform: what a monument to eeeekvaaaaaality
thestringpuller: does scheduler require gossipd, or could it be based on manually inputted list from user?
asciilifeform: in all of its rancid glory
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: under contemplation here and now is a very basic scheduler.
thestringpuller: ah, the threshold for idling.

BingoBoingo: The courts system is more inflicted upon AA.
BingoBoingo: People sent by the courts often aren't ready for step 1 and many times violate the criteria for membership by not having a desire to quit drinking as outlined in tradition 3.

(John 3:20)
BingoBoingo: It is written in the Big Book "Many of us exclaimed, "What an order! I can't go through with it." Do not be discouraged. No one among us has been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles. We are not saints. The point is, that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines. The principles we have set down are guides to progress. We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection." page 60

BingoBoingo: There's a difference between searching to stay out of the next life and trying to get to not dying in this one. p44 chapter 4 "We Agnostics" But it isn't so difficult. About half our original fellowship were of exactly that type. At first some of us tried to avoid the issue, hoping against hope we were not true alcoholics. But after a while we had to face the fact that we must find a spiritual basis of life - or else. Perhaps it i

ben_vulpes: "o i dun need to talk to them, i read some ancient texts. this is how we do in my church so it's the right way to do things elsewhere."
ben_vulpes: you assume you know what they mean by higher power man
trinque: it is the mechanism of submission, plain and simple.
BingoBoingo can see nothing wrong in a way of life that offers him the possibility of living to see socialism crushed

mircea_popescu: how is this done ?! obviously, "turn it into a sql thing somehow and sql it", but no, i mean in bash.
Xplosionist: mircea_popescu is there a good field separator?
mircea_popescu: if you make it into a single line and try to then use sed to recreate lines by the separator, sed silently dies
Xplosionist: if the record separator is a newline, then I think I'd use awk.
mircea_popescu: (grep also dies, but not silently - lack of memory, supposedly, because it's badly written)

ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: 'split'

mircea_popescu: the fellow says "if i were to be a pimp [ie, the dream mode, because hey, that's what he understood of a discussion of technology, that "being an engineer" is a blessed state, to be obtained through divine grace and / or ordination] i wouldn't beat the women, for they'd be more productive thus. but also, if they piss me off, "dead" directly. you know, like puff daddy.

pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: "But anyway, to answer a question from the public in more detail : poorly. I've never been this humiliated in my life." << nuts. my mind, it asploded.
PeterL: maybe when you start b-a minerpool, have higher fees required for non-WoT txn's to get included?
mircea_popescu: PeterL vice-versa.
mircea_popescu: the way this works is that whoever mines is on their knees for whoever knows txns.
PeterL: what? people in WoT have to pay more?
mircea_popescu: no, but you will end up doing fee rebates for people who bring you txns
pete_dushenski: ascii_butugychag: what ports can i use for trb while syncing ? and is there a good reason why trb should jump on 8333 without me telling it to, and without being completely synced ? because this seems to be a recurring issue on my end.
PeterL: I was thinking if they are in WoT it is not spam, anything else should be considered spammy and need higher fee?
ascii_butugychag: pete_dushenski: 8333 is the traditional, you can set to whatever else, or not listen at all if you -connect
mircea_popescu: PeterL i doubt it'd be practical to try and get the miner to subsidize the wot. i expect it to work the other way around.
mircea_popescu: unless you're keeping the army for offensive purposes (ie, we do 51% attacks etc), the army costs the town, does not produce for the town.

assbot: Haplogroup H (mtDNA) - Eupedia ... ( http://bit.ly/1Wvd1gX )
mircea_popescu: ask your representative why you can't have it in the 2nd best korea.
ascii_butugychag: have what?
mircea_popescu: extensive genetic studies done, with corresponding considerations of population health, ethnic history, etc.
ben_vulpes: jurov: do you org-mode with evil-mode?
mircea_popescu: with quotes. medical : "Ruiz-Pesini et al. (2000) reported that men belonging to haplogroup H have the lowest risk of asthenozoospermia (reduced sperm motility)." ; "A study by Baudouin et al. (2005) found that members of haplogroup H had increased chance of survival from severe sepsis at 180 days compared with individuals from other haplogroups."
mircea_popescu: ethnohistoric : "Celtic culture was born from the fusion of Indo-European paternal lineages (R1b) with native Central and Western European maternal lineages (including H1, H3, H10, J1c, K1a, T2, U5 and X2)."
mircea_popescu: etc.
jurov: ben_vulpes: yes, but orgmode has original keybindings
mircea_popescu: "From the Bronze Age, R1b male lineages replaced a large percentage of Megalithic Y-haplogroups, but female Megalithic lineages survived almost unchanged in frequency."
mircea_popescu: and for that matter maps of distribution and so on and so forth.
jurov: !up ascii_butugychag
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: wasn't that what 23 corp. supposedly sold ?

mircea_popescu: wait wut ?
ascii_butugychag: well we don't have ~actual~ genetic studies here in usababwe
ascii_butugychag: we have 23 corp. et al.
mircea_popescu: as i said - ask your representative why!
ben_vulpes: jurov: you mean to say that you ditched evil-org for native org?
mircea_popescu: isn't it the best most culture cuntry in world anymore ?
ben_vulpes: (or am i to understand etc etc)
jurov: i am not aware somethin liek evil-org even exists
mircea_popescu: is jurov going to emacs heaven ?
jurov: no, hell
ascii_butugychag: i'm not convinced re: the eu genetic report being a genuine thing either
ascii_butugychag: but perhaps i merely suffer from 'reverse cargocult'
ascii_butugychag: 'nobody has airplane, it never existed'
mircea_popescu: well.. it's well published, can always dig into if feel inclined.
jurov: mircea_popescu: i see sample sizes like 200 in a million
jurov: there
mircea_popescu: well yes, genetics is very problematic for this reason.
mircea_popescu: that's what drives the entire "take it easy" angle on genetics.
mircea_popescu: this is unavoidable, incidentally, for the same reason life exists.
mircea_popescu: there's a dozen or so "main" clades. but they are subdivided, and the subdivisions subdivide. there's tens of thousands of subdivisions of the most common subdivisions of the more common clades.
mircea_popescu: if you build a tree and it branches out this bad, you'll rapidly end up with tiny fractions in each branch.
mircea_popescu: and if you don't, syphillis mutates and ends your population cca 1490, sfyl, thanks for playing,
mircea_popescu: still, you know, from that same link : "Lucotte et al. (2010) recovered the DNA of Napoleon Bonaparte from beard hair follicules and compared it to that of his mother, Letizia, and his younger sister Caroline. All three shared the same rare 16184T mutation, which places them within haplogroup H15a1b.
mircea_popescu: or for that matter, "Bogdanowicza et al. (2009) tested the Y-chromosomal DNA and mitochondrial DNA of the exhumed remains of the Prussian Renaissance astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus. They established that he belonged to mt-haplogroup H27 (defined by the mutations 16129A and 16316G)."
mircea_popescu: this is interesting, if not obviously useful. just like all the rest of the stuff. nascent field is typically interesting in this manner but not useful (also in this manner).
mircea_popescu: what haplogrup was martin luther king ? or is such knowledge forbidden in the united obscurantistlands. ☟︎
ascii_butugychag: forbidden for very obvious reasons
mircea_popescu: heh.
mircea_popescu: write to your congressman! :D
mircea_popescu: thinking about it... what obvious reasons be those ascii_butugychag ?
ben_vulpes: yes please
ascii_butugychag: well the not-so-seekrit factual basis for the colour warz among the blacks themselves
ascii_butugychag: (as illustrated especially well in haiti)
mircea_popescu: huh ?
mircea_popescu: look at those eu maps, the continent's deeply divided genetically, nobody's fighting.
ascii_butugychag: just referring to the hypothesis, amply supported, that the folks who actually make something of themselves, have proportionately less africa in them
ascii_butugychag: than the other kind.
mircea_popescu: i've yet to see actually good studies on this topic.
ascii_butugychag: and you won't.
ben_vulpes: only 'colour warz' i'm aware of are the preference of crackers for north africans over african americans
mircea_popescu: i somehow doubt there is a good "africa" haplogroup.
mircea_popescu: say Q, it's mostly "huns", whereas N is basically uralics
mircea_popescu: but "huns" here means turks and hungarians and maybe fins.
thestringpuller: https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/41r561/150k_btc_between_personal_holdings_and_associates/ << LOL. "I'm like MP but a big blocker. I'm going to fight him. Bring it on MP"
mircea_popescu: i have no idea what'd be "africa". there's a bunch of major ones. and they are mixed with stuff like the persians, which... invented civilisation.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller gawd, we;re headed for a "the mp of x" phase of buzzwordism ?
thestringpuller: P. Much. "The MP of big blocks" "The MP of paypal" "The MP of blockstream"
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: subsaharan
mircea_popescu: there's at least three. there's the superhawt, tall, muscular men of pure black. there's the skinny short grayish type. there's more.
mircea_popescu: i bet you at least four haplogroups are "subsaharan".
mircea_popescu: and you'rte thinking congo-ish
ascii_butugychag: o
ascii_butugychag: i'm thinking moar generally
ascii_butugychag: 'the folks who stayed behind' (tm) (r)
ascii_butugychag: who existed for millenia and left no ruins worth the mention, never saw the planet until enslaved, etc
mircea_popescu: yeah well... there's that. there's another thing also : a better argument can be brought that the eskimo and the chechens are "worthless neerdowells". and these are very different haplogroups too
mircea_popescu: know what unites, the "failed northerner" with the "failed mountain man" with the "failed subsaharian" ? guess ?
mircea_popescu: obviously, an empire nearby spent many years "helping them".
ascii_butugychag: any honest genetic study would reveal that being related to said folks is, generally, a very serious handicap..
mircea_popescu: yes, for this reason.
mircea_popescu: the russkis/french/english/ustards will come and help you in the ass.
ascii_butugychag: from what i know of mountain folk (the very endearing chechens esp.) they certainly see the payback they get from the plainsfolk they chronically rape as 'unfair'
mircea_popescu: quite.
