ben_vulpes: something like copy newroot to /, mount everything in / except the newroot copy into it, chroot into the copy, cp -r all of what was at the root of the old fs (except the new root copy) into a backup dir and then replace the contents of the root fs with the contents of the newroot copy?
ben_vulpes: the chroot into the chroot itself...), and then boot from a livecd to move the new root fs to the disk root
ben_vulpes: i have what appears to be a chroot with gcc 4.9 and py 2.7, it can happily boot x11 proggies from within the chroot which i take as a good sign but not a definitive greenlight; and now i'm mulling how best to make this chroot the root fs for the whole box. might mount my old root into the chroot, chroot in and mv that to a backup dir (but haven't reasoned through what happens when you mount a fs containing

ben_vulpes: i'm doing this inside a chroot, so i think maybe something isn't mounted correctly? i've tried it both the way that mod6 suggested to me (-o bind /dev $chroot/dev) and the way the gentoo installation handbook says (mount --rbind /dev dev/)

ben_vulpes: !#s s2n
ben_vulpes: like if you need colorized parens whatever you're working on has definitely escaped your ability to hold it in your head.

ben_vulpes: 'trivially', did not want to start gentooing dryers as well
ben_vulpes: leprosy cheese on the shit sandwich of american products is that the dryer power cable was not trivially replaceable, had to be extended.

ben_vulpes: this is a hilarious curveball to throw civvies: "but i thought you were so virulently anti-altcoin?" "no man," long drag on cigarette, "you gotta realize that even the dipshittiest, hilariously self-critting piece of nonsense like the thing that self-advertised as usgcoin /is still a better buy than usg fictions like the 'roth ira'"
ben_vulpes: bullshit made up deliberately hamstrung cryptocurrencies it turns out are way better than anything dear usg has to offer
ben_vulpes: hilarious indictment of value of us citizen "information", "servers"
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: look when there's actual even halfway sorta (((cryptocurrency))) involved, no responsible disclosure will ever happen
ben_vulpes: whole thing devolves into 'i r wrote software and then the bad thing happened because of bad people!'
ben_vulpes: these slime are un-ticking ~every box. and i guess this is unsurprising because socialism clouds memetic space until nobody even remembers, however many years later /what the fuck was so cool about bitcoin in the first place/
ben_vulpes: https://tether.to/tether-critical-announcement/ << see this is so much the opposite of a 'crypto currency'

ben_vulpes: "babbys first linux distro"
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "whatever it is you're building" is "gentoo", and what goes into that is still a mystery to me
ben_vulpes: makes elfs and everything
ben_vulpes: heh i was just reading about that
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: couldja sketch how this pill might work for me?
ben_vulpes: doesn't gcc itself count as a magic binturd?
ben_vulpes: yeah i have one of those as well but also ew
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel: what'd the lawyer say?
ben_vulpes: (gcc 4.9.4)
ben_vulpes: i don't really know how to apply your use flags to the creation of a new gentoo then. i do have an older gentoo box that is pretty faithful to the crapolade flags, has gcc but don't really have a map for making that produce a root fs that i can put on another box or what even the correct way to go about doing what i want to do
ben_vulpes: oh, mistake was to stage3
ben_vulpes: more likely i made a mistake
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i did that, but i believe that 5 snuck in from stage3. at the time i got loads of errors about 5 being present on the system in violation of use flag specification, attempted to purge but this did not result in a usable box somehow
ben_vulpes: right?
ben_vulpes: "step 1: build a gentoo five years ago"
ben_vulpes: republic really doesn't have repeatable steps for building a gentoo with gcc 4.9, does it
ben_vulpes: i couldn't find a stage3 with 4.9 on it when i needed it for this machine, and so got 'phuqed'
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yeah i have now pissed upon this electrified fence as well
ben_vulpes: hey trinque do you still have that script for "infectious gentoo"? i might be able to get my old closet iron with 4.9 to build a respectable userland
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i tried recently to build a chroot with 4 from the machine with 5 to no avail
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: the box that barfed uses gcc 5.4.0
ben_vulpes: mm i'll try that; gentoo wiki ada page said to make ADAFLAGS=${CFLAGS} ty jurov
ben_vulpes: relevant barf from a failure to emerge 'dev-lang/gnat-gpl'
ben_vulpes: but the very very funny event was the script from the adacore binstaller simply fails, and instructed me to check an empty log file
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: not stuck yet, trying other things
ben_vulpes: okay well *something* is compiling on my closet iron now
ben_vulpes: likely has to do with that this box is running gcc 5.4.0, i think i have to figure out how to make a gentoo with gcc 4.9
ben_vulpes: tried both binturd from libre.adacore and a portage ebuild
ben_vulpes: welp, completely struck out installing ada compiler tonight
ben_vulpes: somehow i missed that alibaba is in the timesharing business

ben_vulpes: i did the entire ME curriculum with the one on my desk, finally decided to get some backups.
ben_vulpes: mechanical pencil
ben_vulpes: in other wonderful old technology that is not made and barely findable any more, i cannot praise the sanford "logo ii" highly enough. the original "logo" is all right, but interestingly not quite as well made as its successor.

ben_vulpes: yes, but apparently it did not hit?
ben_vulpes: to take the other side for half a second, who says that i can't charge whomever i want whatever i want for services?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i don't see anyone contesting that it's not income

ben_vulpes: > allergic to notion of nato reich
ben_vulpes: > libre
ben_vulpes: brain must have cooked through at burning man
ben_vulpes: i cannot fathom the confusion of ideas that would lead someone to say such a thing
ben_vulpes: > This is our watch: keep nazis off decentralize uncensorable platforms!
ben_vulpes: > Attempting to make it culturally and socially impossible for neonazis to migrate to the Etherum platform is, in my opinion, necessary for its survival. We cannot censor, but we can and must fight on every other level to dissuade these people from colonizing our utopian efforts.
ben_vulpes: no troo pantsuit!
ben_vulpes: but it couldn't happen, pantsuit tools clearly can only ever be used by them against their enemies
ben_vulpes: in other news, the anti-flirt brigade brought a democrat down today; "al franken"

ben_vulpes: reminds me, i have my own willful violation of patient privacy case to get the ball rolling on
ben_vulpes: probably ^
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i have no idea what eldritch magick the stanford lawyer brigade has worked up

ben_vulpes: also, does your insurance somehow only cover the stanford hospital?
ben_vulpes: scuse me, "teaching hospital"
ben_vulpes: i wonder if there's some "we're a learning hospital, might kill ya, gonna bill ya" going on
ben_vulpes: that's a pretty novice anaesthesia mistake
ben_vulpes: how did you even come to fall off the roof, dude?
ben_vulpes: take yr soma, citizen

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: absolutely, have a benchmarking in place, will be implementing those two changes and recording improvements
ben_vulpes: suresure
ben_vulpes: and in ancients, dusted off mpfhf benchmarker, finished the bit-banging of inputs, fired off a run late last week that is *still hashing*
ben_vulpes made some headway through lisp in small pieces, mind appropriately blown
ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-12#1736892 << some years ago, several people got together and worked through 'an incremental approach to compiler construction', one nick fitzgerald worked through it in ada: https://github.com/fitzgen/ada-scheme

ben_vulpes: !W (mpfhf::mpfhf #*1111 4)
ben_vulpes baffled by the sudden breakage
ben_vulpes: yeah i'm looking into it
ben_vulpes: how did this work
ben_vulpes: possible, but candi's the only node so affected
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: bot thinks its up, nothing shows in logs, uses precisely same stack i have running elsewhere
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: :P
ben_vulpes: ftr i have nfi what kills the thing
ben_vulpes: messy, but hey at least visually inspectable.
