BingoBoingo: In the summer it's too hot in St Louis too.
ReadErr: the AHB tour is neat though
ReadErr: not much to do in the city but drink
BingoBoingo: Anyways, I am living in a hostel and rent a desk at a cowork space. The black people here are friendly, unlike in Saint Louis, and the girls are pretty.
ReadErr: infact there was a german
ReadErr: lol surey they do :)
BingoBoingo: The setup however is not bulletproof. It turns out they don't make ballistic rated servers or cabinets.
BingoBoingo: Well, After scouring the world Hong Kong would have required demasiado racks to support human presence near the datacenter, Brazil's visa process involved too much time and bullshit, and Uruguay is like "cool man, whatever"
ReadErr: it was afterwards i realized people might take it the wrong way
BingoBoingo: Anyways this is one of the few places where hard work, not being stupid, and sticking around leads to opportunities and access to leverage.
BingoBoingo: Well, starting with one. At the moment mostly learning Spanish and waiting for the papers that declare me a very.legit.bsnsman
BingoBoingo: ReadErr: Well after a prolonged search for an acceptable ISP to host servers, not a single one in the world was found. So I was sent to Montevideo to work with a datacenter to start one.
ReadErr: yea couldnt find much either
mircea_popescu: no, there's tons of pics on trilema. look : http://trilema.com/2014/ill-pay-for-your-tits/
mircea_popescu: it comes with all the plugins you need.
ReadErr: but the few places i follow
ReadErr: for the extra api calls
ReadErr: they just want $
ReadErr: they will
trinque: danielpbarron: ty; if you made it to user creation you were done with the build
mircea_popescu: pretty much everything is easier/better if you take the silicon valley idiots out of the loop
trinque: I should've put one of those fancy web toolbars in there.
ReadErr: its easier to see the stuff in a channel
mircea_popescu: and maybe others.
mircea_popescu: ReadErr that's the idea. ircbot is in lips ; if you dont' grok that there's also supybot which iirc is python
ReadErr: the idea of being able to echo outputs of stuff into iirc
mircea_popescu: ReadErr if there;s a netsplit every bot sees its shard ; generally discussion stops tho.
mircea_popescu: ReadErr actually there's all sorts of functionality implemented, see http://www.contravex.com/trilema-bots-directory/ for the list
ReadErr: if theres a netsplit
mircea_popescu: there's no need to worry anyone misses anything you say
ReadErr: so now that im authenticated it wont -v ?

ReadErr: didnt notice the unvoice
ReadErr: 1:09 AM <ReadErr> if i went that route i would just try one of theirs
ReadErr: all the matching stuff ends up being quite a bit of extra parts
ReadErr: and they are so cheap (5$) from china
ReadErr: 1sec lemme find the invoice
asciilifeform: from where didja get the zeolite, ReadErr ?
ReadErr: but this one has a higher output than several of the medical ones combined and costed much less
ReadErr: so ppl had an option if they wanted to make it or not
ben_vulpes: subject of circles where does this timecop feller and this otherguy with the uhf dick swinging habit all hang out?
ReadErr: but 'full blown aids' is like a expression people use for everything but the kitchen sink
ReadErr: some guy got into a pissing contest saying he had the smallest UHF receiver
asciilifeform: ReadErr: why the prefab rf modules ? why not make whole thing ?
ReadErr: those there a specifically for serial data
ben_vulpes: how dyou get setpoints from table to fc then
ben_vulpes: shake it hard it may come out, i hear the rohs crap is crap
ben_vulpes: ReadErr: has an iphone with the soldered in storage probably, cannot pull sd card?
ReadErr: but they quit dev on it, stopped working with new phone updates
ReadErr: which is why i originally used them
ReadErr: since getting them from phone -> web is a pain through a browser
ben_vulpes: sounds like you want a holistic personal backup strategy, really gotta go bolting shit to the side with galleries as well?
ReadErr: but its more so I want them somewhere just incase
ReadErr: ya i was trying to avoid the self hosted route
ReadErr: i dropped smugmug since they pissed me off
ReadErr: its all on the pcb
ben_vulpes: gotta wire IMUs etc to it or is that all on the pcb?
ReadErr: but they are typically stm32
ReadErr: others autonomy, like gps navigation
ReadErr: theres a few codesbases depending on what you are trying to do
ben_vulpes: heh neat, so how do you use one of these fcs?
ReadErr: but the pinout was kinda shit
ReadErr: so timecop did the white one
ReadErr: a magnet goes on the back
ben_vulpes: schematics for the fixedwing flight controller anywhere?
ben_vulpes: fixed and quad it looked like from the photos?
asciilifeform: ReadErr: see the archive link, has photo
ReadErr: whats under the shields ?
a111: Logged on 2018-01-03 04:56 mircea_popescu would link fg, if there was a page ;/
mircea_popescu: nah, asciilifeform did ; the whole thing's in a v tree
mircea_popescu: ReadErr say "!!up" to deedbot in a pm ; then !!v
ReadErr: rather than depending on someone else to
mircea_popescu: ReadErr the bot autoarchives links, btw.
mircea_popescu would link fg, if there was a page ;/
ReadErr: they where like 30x more expensive
ReadErr: then when renewals came around
trinque: that said having it address people directly is on the stack
mircea_popescu: what do you do, other than very legit websites, ReadErr ?
ReadErr: and the fee was 18
ReadErr: whats the 2 paste for?
ReadErr: She is the best thing that ever happened to bitcointalk
mircea_popescu: i ordered a smoked trout + aguacate & onion sandwich earlier and it was like "oh master, the fruits of exploitation are ready!"

ben_vulpes: dude's a wannabe alan kay, writing on a smaller shittier blogspot which is about to implode due to implementing the "three free articles per month" idiocy
ben_vulpes: look at wannabe-hacker-oriented linux distros like Arch and Gentoo, which refuse to supply an installer and instead require users to retype the source code of an installer script from the manual

asciilifeform: ( and, on top of this, most of the offerings at 'high' end turn out to be 'pseudostatic' , i.e. internally has dram + refresher )
asciilifeform: and in the narrowed set, found that : you can get 7-10ns sram at something like human cost. below : goes up exponentially
mircea_popescu: the sram you mean ?
asciilifeform: 'hard' is not the word. item could be trivially made in existing 14nm or whatnot
asciilifeform: and when you impose the condition that it MUST -- you end up with...
mircea_popescu: well, moar of a "if you can't use time band for signalling you're stuck with a stitched together in-band signalling monstrosity"
mircea_popescu: not sure which is the clone ; but emulated today.
mircea_popescu: god the time i spent with that thing...
asciilifeform: 4 was really the golden # , pentix pieces have trouble 'sliding past'
mircea_popescu: back in dos days was even pentix, if you recall, and then that arbitrary tetris generator in space, you saw it ?
mircea_popescu: in entirely unrelated news, here's a simple idea on how to leverage computing power to generate "game" content : create a hexagon filled with hexagonal cells ; cut an arbitrary number of partitions to it, present the pieces to human to "solve" the problem.
asciilifeform: it ain't a randomaccess device. any moar then cassette.
asciilifeform: i.e. the 'R' is a lie
a111: Logged on 2017-08-24 14:41 asciilifeform: ( why to do this ? just as in other cases of 'i can't believe it's not X!', dram is not actually random-access -- all currently sold drams only achieve their rated speed in 'burst mode'; and from that it follows that they are only ever read to fill a cache line; and from this, trivial timing leak etc. and the joys of 'rowhammer', bonus. )
asciilifeform: i.e. anywhere that an allcomer gets to make the thing branch, or affect an array index
mircea_popescu: what next, "african proverb", what is this, the pantsuited hilarity radio show ?
mircea_popescu: and in fucking general -- idiot's failure to register with the republic "for a really long time" doth not somehow enact idiot into anything else, what the everloving fuck.
mircea_popescu thoroughly ignored "cloud" since the day it was invented. the fact that they failed to address this for a decade does not somehow enact a special sovereignity for them, and make cloud a thing. it is still not a thing, as it NEVER FUCKING WAS. hurr.
asciilifeform: and if you must build a public toilet ( i.e. box where allcomers get to affect the memory addressing sequence ) build it from sram.
mircea_popescu: what THEY are trying to solve, "how to perpetuate empire-on-your-box???" is not a problem that needs any solving.
mircea_popescu: the correct solution is http://trilema.com/2016/please-stop-using-dns-already-and-other-considerations/ and so on, ie -- no multiuser box. yank "ssh", yank the rest of the empire-on-your-box crapola and ignore the "problem" that dun exist.
mircea_popescu: anyway, to revisit the upstack problem : the solution to rowhammer, 3.0 as 1.0, is not to "make kernel flush all the time, 50% performance penalty" nor the original "solutions" nor any of that crap.
mircea_popescu: especially the tiny dop of a woman that took over when he was sacked (ie, next year), and who "ce pizda ma-sii!!!1" then noticing completely frozen/silent bunch of 13yo went "what, you never heard that before ?!"
mircea_popescu: 50yo women much better at the... roman, shall we call it, approach to education.
mircea_popescu: ~only 25yo male we had in the crew was ro lit dork, who refused to explain what "oftica" (= tuberculosis, but in ro folklore "disease of unfulfilled love") meant, and when pressed "you'll see in the army".
asciilifeform: then again we had a 25 y.o. physics d00d . and i'd bet he was eventually sacked
mircea_popescu: but at the time it was just fun.
mircea_popescu: in retrospect the whole fucking point of the "game" is evidently "take girl outside of her own safety margins as she herself imagines them" ie fundamental maturation step.
mircea_popescu spent a while in junior high getting girls to spin legs extended and then pull them in. "o noes!111"
asciilifeform: arrange large to small, bottom to top, and drop ( this is the tricky bit )
a111: Logged on 2018-01-02 17:20 mircea_popescu: if you study the dynamic equilibrium of liquid you notice first off that most kinetic energy is transferred to wobbly vessel at the peak ends not at the center of movement, and by the fringe liquid not the central mass
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-02#1762517 << this is too juicy to leave alone : you can actually rederive it from the child's experiment where you put a pingpong ball through the ceiling
asciilifeform: ( much has been written re other aspects, re 'no work, no eat' labour quotas in zekland etc. so i won't repeat. )
asciilifeform: so goes the story.
asciilifeform: not even if on fire and off the rails etc.
asciilifeform: in classical (stalin) su, the iron law was 'prison transport may not be opened outside of prison or courthouse grounds, for ANY reason'
asciilifeform: joke was on the zeks
asciilifeform: for completeness i'll mention the denoument:
mircea_popescu: i suppose they could have had a shitty curve for instance, train went off track half the time anyway, zek thought "button -- connected!"
mircea_popescu: moreover, resonance is not exactly the problem here. whiplash, slightly different item
asciilifeform: ( and it is build nonresonant at the rail sleeper 'freq'. not arbitrary. )
mircea_popescu: ie, one comes "not from a good life" unlike the other, so higher de facto standard baked in
asciilifeform: consider the infamous 'galloping gertie'
asciilifeform: would depend on the car, neh
mircea_popescu: clip those, you lose disproportionately in the effect.
mircea_popescu: if you study the dynamic equilibrium of liquid you notice first off that most kinetic energy is transferred to wobbly vessel at the peak ends not at the center of movement, and by the fringe liquid not the central mass
asciilifeform: re 'rowhammer', for some reason when i first found out about it, the immediate picture was ye olde legend re how zeks supposedly at least once overturned a train, from the inside, in a stolypin car , 'let's all heave-left' then 'right' etc
asciilifeform has nfi whether claim is factual
mircea_popescu: (the matter is often specifically lampshaded -- yes the lady owns the land, but watch de funes interact with her in, say, hibernatus. yes the accountant is there for HER to sign the expense sheets, but "ou, selon vous, est votre grand pere!!!11")
mircea_popescu: (and it behooves me to point out that the antique arrangement is transparently evident in the domestic affairs of the french, (and slightly, somewhat, the italians) as late as the 60s.)
a111: Logged on 2017-07-17 19:23 asciilifeform: but mircea_popescu himself had observation where 'not the fault of the spring, for being springy, if the ratchet broke'
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-17#1685518 << but originally on trilema and can't seem to excavate the concrete item
mircea_popescu: sorta like the conversation in submarine, "why did you put grenade pin ?" "it was there to pull!" "but now we're all going to die" "sorry"
mircea_popescu: this isn't a discussion about how "delilah cut some hair and sold it at the market becoming rich and happy". the fact of the matter is, they fucked each other over, and irrecoverably.
mircea_popescu: well, the arrangement is psychoting in many numerous ways, what the hell, forcing any given female into "venus genetrix" matrix is going to hurt.
asciilifeform: the related observation is re classical slavery in every possible sense milder fate than wage-slavery, for same reason
a111: Logged on 2016-11-20 23:49 mircea_popescu: all through this seeking my approval in the sense of trying to verify if im all that impressed. i... wasn't fucking impressed, because why the fuck would i be impressed with the male nurse.
mircea_popescu: do you see the logic of "well -- if landwoman better perform, lest it finds a better performer ?", aka trilema's "wtf, ~I~ should work to entertain the slaves ?!"
mircea_popescu: so then. as the demographic pressure increases, the conceptualization (the MALE conceptualization, as the only kind there is) of the environment switches from land, cowoman separate to landwoman.
mircea_popescu: now, which was prevalent in antiquity and decayed over time, and which grew over time and was prevalent by the late republic ?
mircea_popescu: there were some special rituals for this.
mircea_popescu: out of the hand signified that the woman remained (no dude, no fucking free agent women, wtf is this) the property of her father.
mircea_popescu: marrying into the hand of the husband signified that the woman became his property, like any other slave (with some exceptions, such as can't be given in lieu of the damage like common slave), and was achieved through continuous cohabitation (one year with no break longer than two days)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the greek world was mostly "land, cowoman separate". the early roman world similarily, but consider : the roman law knew two (principal, we'll omit the half dozen or so special, patrician only, priesthood styles) kinds of marriage :
mircea_popescu: because that's the fundamental difference across the northern ocean -- left, landwoman, right, cowoman.
mircea_popescu: but does land come with women ? is this a construct, landwomen, upon which to find a place for yourself ? or does land come without anything or anymore, and is woman another sort of cow for you to work upon it ?
asciilifeform: the traditional picture is that folx went for land. and it ain't as if you can bring it back to old europistan.
mircea_popescu: the ~other~ available heuristic, likely weaker but reaching further into the past, is to observe that the moor ~strangles~ desdemona, doesn't raise her princess little venetian-aspirant daugthers.
mircea_popescu: the sad counter to thyis is to observe that the actual russians -- too dumb to even go.
mircea_popescu: i will readily grant that the "russians" ~only stayed because actually, they were jews.
mircea_popescu: consider one point -- russians, romanians, germans all went "la america" in the 1800s. the russians and germans -- stayed. the romanians -- returned.
asciilifeform: where on planet3 is the wholesome, noncuckoldating land ?
mircea_popescu: cuckoldry in the americas has not perceptibly changed, i suspect it's driven by the very land. same exact item as before euros showed up, really.
mircea_popescu: in point of fact -- they were.
mircea_popescu: so, yes. i can very much picture rockefeller kids named whateverjin, but in the sense meaningful cca 1817 rather than in the 2017 sense.
mircea_popescu: so now to answer the orig. question : this miner from the french german lands was no particular religious fellow. his wife however -- was.
asciilifeform: ( per mircea_popescu's old piece, 'the men who ought to have been crewing german freighters, were instead in philadelphia, unloading american ones' or how did it go )
mircea_popescu: notice that the hitler-stalin pact actually made a lot more sense historically than the two nuts realised.
mircea_popescu: j p rockefeller, rhineland miner, the german rather than the russian parentage of "american"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the TRULY AMUSING part being that those, also russian immigrants!
a111: Logged on 2017-12-31 17:18 mircea_popescu: the woj chickies ? kinda remind me of http://trilema.com/2012/test-de-curvidentificare-vizuala/
mircea_popescu: the children were not named so and so brin ; but so and so wojin.
mircea_popescu: they had children.
mircea_popescu: you recall brin the elder ?
mircea_popescu: well, either that or married what's her name and had portmanteau kiddos with her.
mircea_popescu: "oh, what'll the teacher do, if he flunks all of us he can't be a teacher anymore, he needs us"
asciilifeform: i suppose you can propell yer charior with farts of not-giving-a-shit then
asciilifeform: ( shoot the slowest one every morning... )
asciilifeform: if you apply this insight literally, you end up with 0 horses in yer cart, rather than an infinitely fast set
mircea_popescu: you know what a lazy eye is ? same exact fucking principle -- moves slower than its brother, =lazy.
mircea_popescu: that your arm "dun work" especially in the "as well as neighbour's" flavour <
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what mom does with them is of no interest./
asciilifeform: and what's the formula for who -- in nuthouse, and who -- not ? 'subclinical' vs 'clinical' neh
mircea_popescu: physiology is no criteria upon anatomy. that your arm "dun work" especially in the "as well as neighbour's" flavour is very strictly no proof of "broken arm".
mircea_popescu: the jews weren't a state ; but very much country.
asciilifeform: it was a remainder from the j00z not yet nailed elsewhere
mircea_popescu: not like all the men were away threshing in lusitania.
asciilifeform: ( and most of the remainder -- the old, the female, the diseased, the zeks who did 0 soldiering, attempted or otherwise )
BingoBoingo: Very lulzy are the Lopez regimes in nearby Paraguay
mircea_popescu: even milling will wear down the knives a little.
mircea_popescu: the заградотряд process doth not promise 0 losses among the guards ; merely ~manageable~ (as opposed to womanageable) losses.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has a quite selective reading of the warsaw incident. 1000+ of the warsaw pile -- were german
mircea_popescu: ie, no dumb cunt had the opportunity to tell rando mirvnik that "you baby are precious and bla bla bla".
mircea_popescu: need a certain sort of rural for that to work, for the exact reason that "used to be easier when all it took was water which could be applied at birth."
mircea_popescu: similarily if you went with machine guns into campus of your choice, the output will be pile of bodies, not red army.
mircea_popescu: they -- more advanced on path to ustardianism than cossacks.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i have no doubt that red army is exactly what happened to the jews in warsaw.
mircea_popescu: but meanwhile the secretions got thicker and stickier.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no 'what-ifs', заградотряд with mg at their back
mircea_popescu: practically speaking, washing the cunt off your eyes today means "getting rid of precious cuntled syndrome at some point before senescence"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Ah, it is a mix. The Uruguayos did defeat the Brits to retake Montevideo. But against the second Brazilian emperor...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the products of modern woman can not plug anything, because "what if there's a better use of their priceless person later on"
mircea_popescu: i've no doubt soon the day the ocean ate their sub "manned by very competent idiots in our own estimation" will get similar treatment, "day of victory over the marine element"
mircea_popescu: eg, argentina celebrates the day of its defeat in the faulklands as "victory over whatever" day.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: dunno, they can just as readily plug embrasures as anybody
BingoBoingo: Un poquito relatit... Many of the streets here are named after dates on the calendar. Routinely the dates mark military victories against the empires won by anywhere from a dozen to three dozen men and their assembled serfs
asciilifeform: the mega-discovery of the 2000s is that the folx with 0ballsack cannot be used ~for anything~
mircea_popescu: "different skillsets" are needed for either approach, which is a polite way of saying that your doods have no ballsacs.
asciilifeform: if you have the requisite number of d00dz , the +ev strategy is to issue rifles and go and take by the sword.
BingoBoingo: Well, can the 1980's or schoolbook toolchain be used, but for smaller fab process.
