BingoBoingo: I'm going to start shifting gears towards other parts of the cleanup while they sweat.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Since this collapse started and this Maxi fellow appeared... Based on the Monday sit down Maxi would be a walking talking tort generator in a common law jurisdiction. Here in this Roman law jurisdiction he seems to be actively generating breaches, non-performance, and faltas. He's been shooting from the hip and clearly been a detriment to his apparently absentee boss.
mp_en_viaje: basically place got its careerwoman/retard, they tend to ruin things in exactly this manner.
BingoBoingo: By contrast Based on the Monday sit down, if Oscar was empowered to act as a telecom manager in the way his title suggests... Maybe the week could have played out differently. Then again if I had a magic clicker that reset time back five minutes every time I clacked it, I may have never made it past age 5 or 13 much less 30 due to juvenile min-max attempts. But hypotheticals are hypotheticals.
mp_en_viaje: inflexible self-righeous stupidty or however you'd call it
BingoBoingo: The remaining months of the contract, if they'd performed would have grossed for them maybe enough for them to get an ancient VW "Kombi" in the local automotive market that may or may not run. Maxi's "we want to work in an amicable way to finish this contract" sounds a lot like they want to say "please pay us to term even though we have become non-performant" while at the same time betraying the lack of balls and/or justification for
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, nah, it reads like "legal told us we'll prolly end up paying through the nose and we told them we know better an' now gonna prove it! PEOPLE DO ANYTHING WE TELL THEM TO!!!"
BingoBoingo: Maybe I'm projecting too much from having seen his face go pale, but... my Maxi simulator with its admitedly small data set... it reads hedging and fear.
BingoBoingo: At some point earlier I did name drop Doctors Tristan Narvaja and Eduardo Acevedo Maturana as the authors of some good prose. The local civil code is the first guy's work. Local commercial code a collaboration, but mostly the second guy.
BingoBoingo: I suspect they do not have a legal department at their present staffing level.
BingoBoingo: They almost certainly depend on outside counsel.
BingoBoingo: I've been sent uniformative graphs that list IPs suggesting that whatever happened to the network, it didn't happen to my portion of Latecho's range alone per addresses printed on the graphics they sent. Here in the dark, hypotheses were made, but no useful information was ever delivered.
lobbes: ("blog.lobbesblog" was indeed
clunky so I figured I'd take this opportunity to rebrand)
lobbes: likewise, I've got a RedirectMatch set up that is pointing all old blog.lobbesblog links to the new url (assuming I don't change my permalink structure). Everything seems to be functional (server-side select, footnotes) except for the archives dropdown, for whatever reason. Not very pertinent though, so I'll worry about that later.
diana_coman: asciilifeform: can happily report success on the very same amd fx !
diana_coman: so at least one amd successfully en-dulapped
spyked: lobbes, all done! new feed looks in order from this side, lemme know if you notice anything wrong
diana_coman: ah, krankendenken got switched in place in private subscribes too, yee; thank you spyked.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, your tireless effort to help bridge minigame over is indeed quite touching.
diana_coman: asciilifeform: python version on dulap is 3.5.4 though or what happened here?!
diana_coman: fwiw: eselect python list shows 3.5 in use and indeed a 2.7 as fallback.
mp_en_viaje: for some reason the detergent here smells like bubblegum, i smell like i've spent yesterday evening knee deep in thirteen year old and trying to re-collect all my shit strewn all over the place is like looking for car playing card things
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, custom nothing, it's on the list of your very personal peculiarities, if it ever was a custom it went out with the divine right of kings
mp_en_viaje: even as we speak the dumb cunts over at uruguay are "trying to resolve amiably" through the age old process of "we fuck shit up and you agree with us it's okay"
hanbot_abroad: BingoBoingo did y'all manage some sort of UY1 interim access scheme? can i ssh thar now/sometime soon?
hanbot_abroad is gravely behind on logs, having been wringing germany out in the bathtub to see if a drop of sanity is left here somewhere.
diana_coman: hanbot_abroad: heh, how many drops came out of ze germans?
diana_coman: ahahah, that's hard to quite picture a deutch-latino mixture
hanbot_abroad: you know? and yet, overtolerance and complacency end up lookin' the same anywhere, like a semi-opaque film.
diana_coman: hmm, I can see how that can end up the same actually, yes; the absence is the same after all, regardless of path to it and even of surrounding artefacts I suppose.
hanbot_abroad: yeah. the surrounding artefacts are still there! just...kinda sadly muffled from beneath the surface, unable to be relevant in the context of the overpopulated stupidities that surround them.
BingoBoingo: hanbot_abroad: I'm about to dive into the CentOS anybox again now that I've sourced a bunch of inexpensive diamond grind/cut bits and have them in hand.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-10 11:32:38 mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, aite. ill cover w/e you paid, lump it with the drive incinerations and w/e else such odds and ends.
BingoBoingo: But apparently there's isn't much left of the world to be had.
diana_coman: BingoBoingo: sadly that doesn't seem to be going anywhere indeed, the crowncloud guy lingers in #o but doesn't answer any q so it probably won't come to anything.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje production server & db successfully running on my local test-setup so that part at least seems all right; tomorrow I'll look at the dev server too.
diana_coman: all those installation notes from past times came in extremely handy indeed; a few hurdles existed, quite as expected with respect to finding again various precise versions of stuff so from now on I'll have to backup *that* too.
