ben_vulpes: davout: there are buildroot scripts for the cross-compile on the mailing list
assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 05:09:26; BingoBoingo: The fucking welterweight champion is known more for "defense" than leaving welts?
davout: ok, i'm off for now, i'll get on cross-compiling bitcoind and getting it running on the pogo later
danielpbarron: the abiltity to audit the thing is one of the most important features
danielpbarron: maybe also the former
danielpbarron: defo the latter
davout: i guess it really depends on whether we want to ship pre-configured units, or make an easy procedure available
danielpbarron: but you should be able to ssh into a new unit, download the image and flash it
davout: ah, so ultimately the procedure would be "acquire pogo, burn image on USB stick, insert SATA drive, insert flashed USB stick, power unit on" right?
danielpbarron: i'm not sure if it can boot from sata out of the box; it's uBoot should be able to do it, but i don't know if it would need to be reconfigured
danielpbarron: and you can boot from usb, it just has to be the USB2 port on the top of the unit
davout: like out of the box?
danielpbarron: it'll boot from the eeprom
danielpbarron: pre-configured to look for a sata drive to format and mount as the datadir for bitcoind
danielpbarron: i would guess something like flashing the memory with a ramdisk image that has all the kernel userland and bitcoind already in there
davout: and since you mention the final product, what would the target procedure look like to configure a new pogo?
davout: ok, where would i find directions to compile it properly for the pogo?
danielpbarron: it'll take forever on the pogo i think
davout: so now do i compile bitcoind right there? or should i somehow compile it on my local machine?
danielpbarron: yeah, it's as insecure as could be, because telnet shouldn't be enabled on the final product anyway
danielpbarron: oh i think there is no password actuallly
davout: so now i guess i just need to build the bitcoind release and put it on the pogo
davout: aha, i'm the new pogo
danielpbarron: he decided that since the thing has no RNG, ssh is a waste
danielpbarron: if you used ascii's thing, then it should have telnet built in
davout: the pogo seems to have a half green half red light
danielpbarron: netcat stops there, you shouldn't see anything else
davout: yes, i got the u-boot working, see the output i get in netcat ^
danielpbarron: you used the qnology guide to get the uBoot thing working?
davout: danielpbarron: so looks like i managed to get the kernel loaded and starting
danielpbarron: i have a more condensed guide on the b-a wiki
davout: aah, reading the instructions once again, it starts to make sense
davout: danielpbarron: but i'm slightly confused at this whole thing, say i manage to flash the new uboot on the pogo, and set the correct variables with the new fw_printenv command that comes with the improved u-boot, and that with the correct settings the pogo will look for a kernel on the network at boot time, what's netcat for?
davout: i assume i can use the steps relevant to u-boot from there to get the correct version on the pogo and resume your instructions when that's done
assbot: Qui's techNOLOGY Blog: Hacking the Pogoplug v4 (Series 4 and Mobile) with Linux (Debian or Arch) ... ( http://bit.ly/1Alx70K )
danielpbarron: but it does not come with the tool needed to do this, which is fw_printenv
danielpbarron: it comes with its own uBoot, which can be configured to load a kernel over the network
davout: perplexed at the u-boot step, how do i actually get to asciilifeform's "(you -did- configure the u-boot to tftp by default, aha?)" ?
davout: from what i understand i need to replace u-boot on the pogo so that it'll load this new kernel over the network by using tftp
mod6: <+asciilifeform> [BTC-dev] Full Orphanage Thermonuke Massif Output (Theoretically, covers entire address space of process) << great work, asciilifeform. thanks for putting that together :]

lobbes: or does anyone see same << heh, I see the same
davout: so the original behaviour was to actually reverse-sync
asciilifeform: is this their ip-based diddling
asciilifeform: as is the 5th
asciilifeform: (the 'orphanage burner' one)
davout: not sure i get "the thing walks the orphanage and finds the start of the chain"
asciilifeform: the current item was the simplest/most-kalashnikov
asciilifeform: so our antecedent is always the most recent bastard.
asciilifeform: 2) after this, when bastard block comes in, the thing walks the orphanage and finds the start of the chain, and asks for its antecedents.
davout: (it doesn't reverse-sync in the sense that it doesn't keep a partial tree it tries to reconnect to the currency known best tree)
asciilifeform: what happens in the 'virginal' 0.5.3 is,
davout: or does it simply drop any block it receives and that doesn't chain on top of the current best?
davout: asciilifeform: am i correct in my understanding of the thermonuke patch that it will try to reverse-sync starting from any arbitrary block it receives?
asciilifeform: the imbeciles are phucked and their only recourse, as is now traditional, is to fud and lawyering
asciilifeform: 'and the reason i believe they fought me so hard, and is a detail thats kind of hard to get through to reporters, is that the cylinders used an OTP memory, the issues cannot be fixed without a somewhat expensive exchange' -- from the locks article

assbot: JL: ‘Is This the Best Time To be Alive?’ ... ( http://bit.ly/1IfKfgk )
mircea_popescu: Finally, if the event is held between the 1st [SSI distribution] and the 16th [last EBT distribution] the ghetto will be flush with government money. Any event held after the 20th will be likely to draw criminal predators, mostly teens ranging away from the nest to fill their mother’s requests, such as, “Baby, get me a new purse—a nice leather one like those white ladies carry.”
mircea_popescu: there will be minimal problems."
mircea_popescu: there was no longer an ability to marshal large ghetto forces, absent their high school breeding grounds. The media coverage was a complete lie and a hoax, the rioters have been excused, and the race-purging strike teams in outlying areas ignored or covered up. During the school year attend such events in Baltimore only on the weekend. If they have a Friday night event, do not go. As this event is in August, I predict
mircea_popescu: Monday. The first riots on the Saturday following the death of Freddie Gray were not a fraction of what came on Monday after his funeral. Recall that all parties predicted that the funeral would calm tensions, not considering that Freddie Gray’s death was just an excuse to vent long standing hatreds, and that proper mass riots could not be organized until high school was in session. When another weekend rolled around
mircea_popescu: "The Baltimore riots were fueled by cohesive large scale mobs exiting their criminal training ground, where they are prepared for a lifetime of illiteracy and incarceration: Baltimore City Schools. These riots only reached virulent levels during the week. The media claims that the riots calmed down after Friday because of the police indictments, but this was not so. Friday was as hot as any day of the riots other than
mircea_popescu: he even has a testable hypothesis! exciting.
mircea_popescu: rhaps purely-for-profit raids on retailers based around Halloween, or school events. As with the recent riots the aims will be largely racial purging and plunder, not protest."
mircea_popescu: "Note that every honest person in Baltimore believes these riots were the first of many, and that the media and government—attributing the riots to the death of Freddie Gray—think that throwing some cops under the proverbial city bus will assuage black rage, when in reality, every government initiative that has contributed to the racial hatred in Baltimore is still ongoing. There will be more riots in Baltimore, pe
mircea_popescu: either way.
btcdrak: I would be super surprised if gavin's proposal gets through. seems like there is a lot of opposition from coredevs thankfully.
btcdrak: thank you. I just found this channel by following some links in the blocksize discussion on reddit.
mircea_popescu: the man got a purple belt in prose.
mircea_popescu: the scissors.
mircea_popescu: When I was the same age as the MMA athletes you are training all we had was silk-lined fantasy. Now there is a real sweaty reality in a cage near you, and you just might be able to help some hard working young wrestler who actually knows how to make weight, box, if only in spots. Even so, it’s still boxing, and it’s a fact, that most of the hands being taped today are being taped cage-side. You might-as-well wield
mircea_popescu: MMA is the place where all of those bodies are landing. It might not be boxing, but boxing is there. And the grappling and kicking coaches want your help. Believe me, comparing notes with a ground fighter in 2013 is far better than arguing with the wannabe martial arts movie stars of the 1970s about their bizarre array of secret animal punches and their ability to levitate out of your way as they stole your life force
mircea_popescu: the problem with systems that don't have anyone in charge is that this sort of nonsense flourishes.

mircea_popescu: fuck you, be good instead. who the fuck cares how "diverse" good is.
mircea_popescu: "Hire diverse Googlers: In the past, our university-focused hiring programs have relied heavily on a relatively small number of schools. But, we know those schools aren't always the most diverse. For example, while 14% of Hispanic college enrollment is at 4-year schools, Hispanics make up just 7% at the 200 most selective schools. In the past two years, we've doubled the number of schools where we recruit, to promote s

BingoBoingo: The fucking welterweight champion is known more for "defense" than leaving welts?
cazalla: BingoBoingo, well they don't get coked up for fights like tyson did for his so this is the resultl
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Maybe? I remember though when boxing payperviews mean ears being bitten and brain damage occuring. Mayweather's style of retreating and punching pacman in the kidneys during midfight hugs was... different and probably deviant
cazalla: BingoBoingo, pays well either way
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I seriously though wonder how a person could win a competition in a combat sport while retreating as often as Mayweather did
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Gardening surprisingly easy. Mostly you abort the unwanted allowing conditions favorable to the desirables

assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 04:14:32; *: BingoBoingo still pissed over saturday's fight. Mayweather spent the whole time retreating.

BingoBoingo: decimation: Capenter bees here in the past decade went the miraculous transformation from pest to desirable
BingoBoingo: decimation: They mostly do. They also love the columbine in the front garden, will love the Hollyhock later in the year.
asciilifeform was also under the impression that mircea_popescu already flies in females as necessary for terraforming martian colony
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm still puzzled as to how importing female ua would replenish the missing supply of (somehow) necessary orcs
mircea_popescu: left the dude a comment. curious if he shows up.

BingoBoingo might be interested in these giant hornets

asciilifeform: i have (had?) bookmark pit with 1,001 of these.
mircea_popescu: lls flat beneath the reality of naked force. The hooting black heathens that have hunted me in the streets of Baltimore for over 30 years might be my enemies, but they at least acknowledge my manhood as they probe for my every weakness, and have struck a resounding blow against the slave mistress society that seeks with its every apparatus to render me weak to the point of meek.
mircea_popescu: I now observe, through what of my primal man’s eye I have been able to salvage from this systematic assault on my humanity, that all it takes is a few urban savages to rip the mask away from the slave mistress that owns us to expose her for the impotent squabbling bitch that she is, and open the door for men to be men once again, as the lie that encases our souls crumbles to dust with every fumbling falsehood that fa
mircea_popescu: This kind of elevation of young men normally only occurs on battlefields or on sports teams—not in sissy, civilized, shop keeping society. The leaders and academics of our sick corrupt society have labored for nearly two centuries to emasculate our young men from the cradle to the grave.
mircea_popescu: i don't care. but the women preferably.
asciilifeform: decimation: is that the bloke who was beaten to death in a za police clink ?
mircea_popescu: yes, the icecream is excellent. meanwhile i'm hatching a major depression.
mircea_popescu: this country is maybe the casebook study on "what happens if you don't beat the women".
mircea_popescu: it's the case. the jews have it ridiculously bad but not this bad. the arabs have it almost as bad, but not nearly.
asciilifeform: the (not argentinian but pertinent) garcia marquez painted a very frightening picture of this, in his tales
mircea_popescu: argentina, much more than the us, is an old-woman-oriented society.
mircea_popescu: and the grandmothers kept in the outhouse.
mircea_popescu: here's a deep dark secret : the us would produce fine young men too, even white ones, if their IDIOTIC MOTHERS were beaten more often,
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ... there hasn't been one in decades << all dead ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the reports were exagerated.

mircea_popescu: well, i feel the same way. retards everywhere.

asciilifeform: if not this, there'd be pinkertons, machine-gunning at foot level
mircea_popescu: my main complaint here in argentina is that well... there's no "orcs" as you call them, in sight.

decimation: well, I did leave the md/dc area
mircea_popescu: or for that matter, predict the next one, so you know where not to go o.O
asciilifeform: in the general case, both - predictable. like the example of orlov's bridge falling into the river. (eventually the whole thing is underwater. but when?)
mircea_popescu: decimation why didn't you predict it then!
asciilifeform: orc flare-ups are similarly unpredictable (other than, possibly, to instigators)
mircea_popescu: provided they move fast enough.
mircea_popescu: men who don't like the earthquake in kyoto can go have the earthquake in osaka.
decimation: sure, that's what gives the us its black and white checkerboard demographic map
decimation: actually I think the mega-trend here is that the us is sorting itself out geographically
mircea_popescu: they can draw mpex on a piece of paper and oversee it till they fall over.
asciilifeform: or rather, pieces of usa
mircea_popescu: in the sense that sec will oversee mpex.

asciilifeform: (mega-recommend: watch the extant films from it. good quality shootouts, etc)
mircea_popescu: the government is that derpy kid in school. it doesn't give anything, the kids just take.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there is no such thing as "government largesse".
decimation: "In the city, the entitlement pressure continues to ramp up, with the Whole Foods grocery store coming under fire for feeding national guardsmen that prevented their store from being looted. The ghettoites claim that the grocer should have been feeding the black students who lost their free school lunch on Tuesday, rather than the guardsmen who were protecting the grocer from these same juvenile delinquents. "
asciilifeform: and why was l.a. not the hole the night walks in through ?
mircea_popescu: if detroit next copies them...
mircea_popescu: and for that matter, baltimore may well be the hole the night crawls through.
mircea_popescu: it's not accidental that my path to breaking 1984 was as i described it at the time.
mircea_popescu: but no. baltimore/maryland is currently under an aliance of the underworld. they WILL drive out any and all statal enforcement, because that is what happens when the underworld decides to .
asciilifeform: and, the absolutely key soviet part, gendarme will be posted far from his home town
decimation: I'm not sure about such a coordinated plot, but it certainly is the case that urban police departments are independent power centers upon which usg frowns
asciilifeform: re: police irregularities: i'm still betting on the hypothesis that local police will be pissed on in propagandatron endlessly until finally entirely replaced (as planned) with centralized gendarmerie
decimation: mircea_popescu: the problem this guy (the blog author) has is that if he is too public about his point of view, the king's police will make an example of him
decimation: all the other industry is long-gone
mircea_popescu: "10. All whites I have spoken to have noted that blacks they normally come into contact with have been behaving with increased—or not before present—hostility. This has been noted by the author as well, with hard eye-contact and aggressive posturing evidenced by most black males I now encounter, where before that was a minority expression of about a third of such men."

mircea_popescu: ered at the hands of Johns Hopkins Hospital and University buying up drug territory."
mircea_popescu: "7. Over 200 businesses, including at least 13 pharmacies, and up to a third of liquor stores, have been wiped from the face of the earth, many of them minority businesses which are uninsured and will not recover. This places the drug gangs in a position to expand the illegal economy in areas where businesses will not return—as they did not return after the 1968 riots—which offsets losses of territory recently suff
asciilifeform: why not beggars then ?
decimation: given how they have to deal with reality as-is
mircea_popescu: the problem is that the king has no further good claims on sovereignity, and as such must now surrender the police.
decimation: asciilifeform: in theory, ip cameras could work as well as dumb analog-over-coax, but in practice the firmware sucks
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the point of the king's police is to maintain the king's claims to sovereignity << this was no mystery of any kind to the folks who first witnessed this marvellous invention.
asciilifeform was poking phun at the imbecility of the camera thing
mircea_popescu: heh. was example earlier in the log about how "police work for them". was re three strikes ballot in ca.
decimation: mircea_popescu: re: police < yeah I buy that, but it's often the case that the democratic police like to confuse the voters into thinking that they work for them

asciilifeform: luded nautical charts and drawings showing the route to be followed in laying the cable. The War Department issued its permit Number 2845 on September 8, 1930. Thereafter, United States Customs advised that inspections of the cable tank buildings, additional permits and the payment of duties were required in addition to a warehouse bond for the importation and storage of surplus cable.'
asciilifeform: 'President Hoover signed a permit to lay cable in the territorial waters of the United States on June 17, 1930. The Cuban-American Telephone and Telegraph Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bell Telephone Company, accepted responsibility for the work under this permit and filed it with the State Department in Washington D.C. The Division Attorney applied for a War Department Permit on August 9, 1930. The application inc
