pete_dushenski: just read about the 5451-piece richard mille "jura" clock in quebec city, as it happens, and i'll definitely be checking it out next time i'm there. apparently the thing took 6 years to build, which isn't so hard to believe when you see that incorporates a perpetual calendar (which knows leap years from non-leap years, unlike an annual calendar), rementoire d'egalite (for improving accuracy), and equation of

deedbot: ben_vulpes rated jawbone2 1 << new blood
ben_vulpes: now up thyself
jawbone2: Thank you for you help ben_vulpes
jawbone2: It is a pleasure to finally be speaking here.
jawbone2: I would like to set up a full republican node. I have the hardware and the instructions from the bitcoin foundation are pretty clear. I would like to know if you have any recommendations for a VPN service with port forwarding of course.
jawbone2: I live in the US.
trinque: what's the vpn for?
jawbone2: I would like to run the bitcoin node and a small webserver. My ISP would require a much more expensive business account to open port 80. A VPN with a static IP on the other end would allow me to get around this limitation. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: divorce these concerns, run a bitcoin node on bitcoin node hardware, and a webserver elsewhere ☟︎
trinque: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/SNOOi/?raw=true << gcc-4.9.4 OFFICIALLY!!1!1! deprecated by gentoo bureaucrats ☟︎
jawbone2: Ok. when you say bitcoin node hardware do you mean specialty hardware with ASIC chips?
jawbone2: Or just have the bitcoin node running on it's own machine
ben_vulpes: no dude, asics are for mining
ben_vulpes: but you say that "i have the hardware", so use that hardware. boot a bitcoin node on it and don't worry about port 80. ☟︎
jawbone2: Got it. Then I can just use Dynamic DNS to give me a permanent IP address right?
ben_vulpes: shouldn't need a permanent IP to run a node. it's a good thing, and a requirement for running a srsbsns anything, but you can drop connections and reconnect to the bitcoin network regularly without much hassle.
ben_vulpes: afaik you don't even need to be able to do incoming connections, although you are a leech upon the network if you don't.
trinque: I don't find that my home ISP changes IP more than every few months, at least.
jawbone2: I see. The instructions I have assume a static IP address. I can do incoming connections just not on port 80.
ben_vulpes: jawbone2: are you talking about the myip flag?
ben_vulpes: nothing in http://thebitcoin.foundation/trb-howto.html mentions static IPs, so let's clear this up
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if yer ip moves, yer node becomes unconnectable-to ( and will merrily carry on broadcasting old ip to others as a seed)
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: and a node that cannot be externally connected to is an eater, not a plower
jawbone2: I see so when I start the bitcoin demon I put in my current IP. Then if it changes I'll need to update it?
jawbone2: Yes I'm talking about the myip flag
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yes, i made that latter point.
ben_vulpes: jawbone2: yes, if you are so unlucky as to only have access to a dynamic ip, you must reboot your node with a new ip in myip lest ye 'eat' and now 'plough'
ben_vulpes: would be neat to patch trb to have this dynamically settable, and nothard either, see settxfee
ben_vulpes: idem versionstring as asciilifeform mentioned
jawbone2: If I used Dynamic DNS to get a static IP would that get around this problem?
ben_vulpes: perhaps, i do not know what promises they make.
ben_vulpes: but 'try it and see'!
ben_vulpes: a useful patch for folks in jawbone2 's position would update the results of getinfo to indicate whether trb considered a connection 'inbound' or 'outbound' so that you could determine if your dyndns hacks were working ☟︎
jawbone2: Indeed I shall. Thank you. Quick question do I now have a rating so I can voice myself in the future or is the rating only temporary.
ben_vulpes: alternatively, jawbone2, rent some virtualized hardware and -connect your homenode to it
ben_vulpes: jawbone2: i don't purge ratings on much more than a once-every-other-quarter basis, so you've got some time
ben_vulpes: no promises, of course
jawbone2: Understood. Thank you for your help.
ben_vulpes: stop by and update us with node sync process regularly and you'll be ahead of 90% of the pack, sadly
jawbone2: Got it.
ben_vulpes: btw, who are you? do you keep a blog anywhere?
jawbone2: My name is Jim Weaver I live in Florida. I do not keep a blog yet. That is coming with my webserver project ☟︎☟︎
ben_vulpes: nice to meetcha, jim
jawbone2: Indeed you too, Ben. I've been reading Trilema the blog for a long while and lurking here for a little while. This is an undiscovered country.
ben_vulpes: surprisingly well know, just not really discussed in 'mainstream'/pantsuit media due to the dump truck loads of fear it inspires
jawbone2: Indeed
esthlos: jawbone2: my 2cents: get a linode with a static ip for $5/mo. for a dynamic dns, run a cron sending your local ip to the linode, and a cron to edit your dns record accordingly on the remote. for the web server, either preroute remote's 80 to some local port, or just run it on non-80 ☟︎

asciilifeform: the latter a not wholly false cognate -- we have погрешность , i.e. instrument error , and from the slavonic root грех , i.e. sin
mircea_popescu: "conteaza" is the bigger caltrop there, yes it's cognate with english "to count" but it strictle means "to matter, to be important", never the actual arithmetical procedure
asciilifeform: aaa as in 'them peons dun count for half a shit'
mircea_popescu: ayep
asciilifeform pictures montypython's sacramental 'the french are revolting'
mircea_popescu: and yes, gresala used deliberately because ro convention is to use slavonic roots for slavonic originals.
mircea_popescu: so heure would be put as ora but ceas as ... ceas.
asciilifeform did notice this.
mircea_popescu: otherwise "eroare" quite available.
asciilifeform: to round off thread -- asciilifeform very much enjoying rewriting ( and it is , yes , a total rewrite ) ffa ☟︎
mircea_popescu: it shows.

mircea_popescu: the superlative of this, however, "tufa de venetia", ie, Venice bush.
mircea_popescu: why ? the texts do not record why. but ~everyone knows.

mod6: what do we need to do to get started with cuntoo. we ought to make a list.
asciilifeform: mod6: the server on my desk, to find its way in the cage, is # 1
mircea_popescu: mod6 it has to compile and bootstrap ; and support video cards and netcards. that'd be about it. ☟︎
asciilifeform: no tarball hoster -- no cuntoo

asciilifeform: asciilifeform for example has >decade of tarball archive
diana_coman: hanbot, also!
mircea_popescu: at some point we (i mean s.mg) attempted to build a debian archive.
asciilifeform: i recall this
asciilifeform: what became of it ?
mircea_popescu: iirc that died in the flames of 1e10 bytes of liquid shit
trinque: mod6: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-24#1757759 << literally all I need to release the thing ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-12-24 02:53 trinque: tangentially yet again, I'd really like a vtron to put in this here cuntoo.
mod6: so your box in the cage will host all the tarballs... (we'll need mirrors too) or am I misunderstanding?
mircea_popescu: literally, irrecoverably, liquid.
asciilifeform: i only keep src tarballs
diana_coman: pretty much dead, yes; whatever we took out at that time is still there though
trinque: fine thing to duplicate this particular work, but that's what I'm waiting on, will otherwise write my own to put on it.
mircea_popescu: i think the last debian capable of booting without any binary was like, sarge.
asciilifeform: whaddayamean 'boot without binary'
trinque: the mere act of producing a booting gentoo is trivial; what we need is a genesis of a ports tree merged between the musl overlay and a particular vintage of portage.
asciilifeform: trinque: i still haven't attempted musltronic gentoo. ( and have nfi whether it could be used on a workstation, say -- does emacs run ? what dies ? )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you're familiar with the dependency problem, yes ? the statement here is that dependency problem for debian is SO BAD you can't actually produce a meaningful packaging of useful debian within finite space.
trinque: emacs runs fine
asciilifeform: trinque: then it's a go...
trinque: nobody runs my recipes when I post, eh?
mod6: i still use our old one :]
asciilifeform: trinque: i read'em. but only 2 hands, not run yet.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is unsurprising
trinque: this ruins my picture of you with four arms and two keyboards
asciilifeform: binaryturd dists always were a fraud in that sense
mircea_popescu: he's got a joysdick tho
asciilifeform: trinque: i did not say how many total arms!111onlyhowmany free
trinque: loller
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's not even that they're binary dists. they CLAIM to be proper dists. but then "all compiles except THIS ONE THING" ; or "x requires y and y requires x -- pick one put binary in" ; or so following.
trinque: mod6: I'd be happy to work with ya on whatever needs done to get v onto this thing. and it perhaps would benefit from phf's vdiff.
trinque: can't repo portage without it
mircea_popescu: is the idea to actually use the whole portage mechanism on the eventual cun2 ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: some packages are known and inescapable arse-mouth-systems in this sense - e.g. gnat, as discussed on several occasions
esthlos: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-30#1761390 if this is the case, why not go LFS? ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-12-30 22:35 mircea_popescu: mod6 it has to compile and bootstrap ; and support video cards and netcards. that'd be about it.
asciilifeform: can't build a gnat without a... gnat. period
mircea_popescu: because i will confess phf 's tales of bravery encourage me, to think perhaps protage could be cut from 5bn lines to 5k or somesuch ?
trinque: I'm certain it could.
asciilifeform: portage << gotta depythonize it
mircea_popescu: see ?
trinque: I'm speaking of the ebuild tree
asciilifeform: being as python is , what, 1M loc ?
mircea_popescu: i suppose once phf delivers new v, we shall be looking for a hero to reportage.
asciilifeform: imho it needs the ada schemetron.
asciilifeform: as substrate.
asciilifeform: because sh is not a language.
mircea_popescu: trinque yes but see, the change of diff to tmsr diff is liable to bring improvbements to semantic ; same may be true of etree.
trinque: heh, this is why I say release with portage cuntoo "overlay"
trinque: can dev the replacements from inside
mod6: <+trinque> mod6: I'd be happy to work with ya on whatever needs done to get v onto this thing. and it perhaps would benefit from phf's vdiff. << excellent. yeah, let's!
trinque: then jettison the old tree
mircea_popescu: conceivable.
mircea_popescu: anyway, this will need more thought by which i mean more failed attempts.
mircea_popescu: i guess it's a decent spring item.
trinque was prompted to finish the reproductive gentoo when he went to build a box like always, found the shitgnomes had eroded earth from under his build system
mircea_popescu: esthlos lfs ? wut ?
esthlos: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/
mircea_popescu: oh.
mircea_popescu: resolved ot "large storage" in my head.
trinque: that's not a thing so much as a "yes you could be a human build system"
trinque: sure we've all done LFS in teens or w/e
mircea_popescu: esthlos in a word, because none of the gerard beekmans matthre burgess bruce dubbs etc are known to us / have a !!key and so on
mircea_popescu: it makes sense to re-do imperial crud under the republic ; it makes comparatively little sense to try and pick among the anonymous imperials for "the good one".
esthlos: so some of the gentoo devs are around?
mircea_popescu: nope, which is why the item is called cuntoo.
esthlos: ah
mircea_popescu: the logic is actually very strict : only key can sign, therefore only key can genesis, and see all the discussions around mpi re exactly what code production is deemed etc.
mircea_popescu: but in shorthand practical terms, if they don't have a genesis we can patch upon, they don't exist.
esthlos: oh, i see
asciilifeform: a number of items in gentoo ports ~did~ have pgp sigs. but none of anybody in my l2 (or 3, or afaik even 4 )
mircea_popescu: "very strict" : if i can't lean on them to make a proper genesis, also just as good as not existing
mircea_popescu: and so following, the blade cuts.
trinque: and they use things like "release signing key" because persons don't exist
mircea_popescu: the bizarre sort of "humility" the empire keeps pushing.
esthlos: i want to say v is genius, but it seems like common fucking sense. columbus' egg i suppose

trinque: asciilifeform: worth a thread maybe, but I loathe the one-kernel-for-them all approach; I don't even ship my kernels with module loading enabled
asciilifeform: aha, it is intimately per-machine item
mircea_popescu is looking forward to mod6 putting some of these into hardware, because while he's very cute as he gets all flustered from repeated failure, the whole process is nevertheless immensely useful & productive.
mircea_popescu: trinque the VERY FUCKING NOTION of "modules" is basically abandonment of kernel.
mod6: lol ok.
mircea_popescu: it's shocking how philosophically undedicated them folks are, 0 adherence to any kind of principle or anything whatsoever.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they were forced mistake, via x86ism . without something like modules, you get to pick b/w a) kernel that runs on ONE box, and that's until you change a card b) a 500MB liquishit pot
mircea_popescu: still.
mircea_popescu: mod6 you realise this, your original v actually worked out in practice as major pivot improving v significantly from notion to item.
asciilifeform: 'kernel is this ONE item, and fuckyou' worx when you get to standardize the iron. and not otherwise.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'd have preferred much more exposed parameters/configs than "modules", for instance.
asciilifeform: ( and even crapple iirc is stuck maintaining several versions of theirs, because different editions of iron )
mircea_popescu: a "module" is a braindamaged half-way implementation of a compiled configfile.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that'd be (b)500MB of shit
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i prefer my formulation, but yes, i'd have taken b.
asciilifeform: because driver under idjit x86 iron is a massive ball of ???, none of which typically generalizes to ANY other item
mircea_popescu: but at least THAT would have been exposed.
mircea_popescu: there's no benefit in playing well with idiots.
trinque recalls the sad thread where it was explained to him how the thing's a pile of recursive busses keistered in keisters

mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 you realise this, your original v actually worked out in practice as major pivot improving v significantly from notion to item. << thanks. it's been great to see it come to life. it's a work in progress :]

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the 'multiple buses on other buses' bigger-fleas-and-little-fleas horror show is no kind of cure tho.
mircea_popescu: yeah. you were all "well, sorry it's broken" last month or w/e, but realise -- back when it was written it was ahead of the v as a concept. that it meanwhile become broken is merely because the tide raised ; but the tide raised because, in no small part, it existed.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, have dedicated fucking lines. all this "oh, we have nfi what will hang off this cpu" pretense is 1980s idiocy. WE FUCKING KNOW. have dedicated netbridge ; have or not have dedicated video bridge -- YOU KNOW if you're putting or not puting a fucking vidcard in there but you don't know whether you need a bus for it or not ? gimme a fucken break!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sgi had a crossbar, it aint an unheard-of thing
mircea_popescu: 1. netbridge or no netbridge ; 2. vidbridge or no vidbrige ; 3. serial.
mircea_popescu: what the fuck, "oh we don't know what people may plug into the bus", like it's 1979 and i go around the killer micros with syringe needles.
asciilifeform: actually the correct solution is fabric
mircea_popescu: fine.
asciilifeform: i.e. cpu only knows how to speak to other cpus. and other iron is special case of 'other cpu'
mircea_popescu: whatever the fuck but this pointlessly self-crit of a spurious bottleneck.
mircea_popescu: "we didn't know how you wanted your house laid out so we put this sqm in the middle that has to be traversed FOR EVERYTHING! hope you enjoy all the copping a titfeel in your own god damned house"
asciilifeform: bus is a poverty artifact. and i will add that , most hilariously, recent items like pcie are actually implemented as ports, physically! but on the idjit x86 end EMULATE behaviour of bus !!
