dpb: asciilifeform, yep. got it, thank you very much. And going forward, the answer to "how do i download this in oklahoma" is rent a amazon thing to route it
asciilifeform: dpb: outta curiosity, what was the net wall clock time on yer end for the download ?
dpb: what does that mean
asciilifeform: dpb: seconds, from start to finish
dpb: i didn't keep such track, but it finished in the early am this morning
asciilifeform: so let's take this point in time as start
snsabot: Logged on 2021-02-26 18:20:55 dpb: that works. ty
dpb: yes
asciilifeform: and let's say 0hrs today as fin
asciilifeform: 452400s. 278792347611byte / 452400s ~= 600kByte/s. avg.
asciilifeform: it aint clear to asciilifeform that the mirrors (of which asciilifeform baked 3; and iirc trinque also 1) made much diff
asciilifeform: dpb you might want to try musk's new low orbit dish thing, supposedly goes 100-200mB/s with tight ping
asciilifeform not tried
asciilifeform: dpb: lemme know whether the tar worx for you. keep in mind that by nao that snapshot is ~month outta date
asciilifeform: dpb: also think about whether you can actually keep a noad synced reliably on a ~600kB/s pipe. (in principle oughta. but in practice a good % of a noad's bw is wasted on being fed liquishit)
asciilifeform: hrm feedbot apparently no longer feeds my www anywhere but in #s...
shinohai: ^ I noticed above behaviour on my toilet lappy running 5.12 kernel asciilifeform ... but hadn't got that far to notice a problem via ffa yet.
verisimilitude: A ``toilet lappy'' is a poor machine or one set near the toilet?
verisimilitude: I've had similar font issues with mine articles, despite their simplicity. Under Android phones, monospace fonts don't work, so my machine code documentings look poor.
verisimilitude: My solution was apathy.
shinohai: verisimilitude: "toilet lappy" the one I use for streaming torrents, play retroarch games, etc.
shinohai: "At least it's not Debian!" (tm)
verisimilitude: Trying to preserve my hands has made me realize how awful so many Emacs chords are.
verisimilitude: Each of M-<, M->, and C-M-! require three fingers strewn around.
verisimilitude: The C-M-% for query-replace-regexp is particularly bad.
trinque: verisimilitude: yeah, my left hand's pinky is more or less trashed by mapping esc to caps-lock and using vim bindings.
trinque: I'm probably soon to get one of those split keyboards with the thumb modifiers and move esc in there.
trinque: might dvorak up at that time too.
trinque: asciilifeform: would be amusing if the onlinecodes thing gave faster throughput just by virtue of not being in anyone's packet analysis rules yet, aside the greater efficiency of the protocol.
trinque: one of the primary contemplated applications was efficent multisource download
verisimilitude: I may eventually find myself entering these chords with my yet-to-arrive chording keyboard, but I'll more likely try to avoid them entirely.
trinque: ftr I'll seed that db snap for quite a while; isn't harming anything
trinque: verisimilitude: ah, thinking of the chord device specifically for emacs bindings?
trinque: that's a compelling idea tbh
verisimilitude: No, my BAT.
trinque recalls the "mother of all demos" having a chording device.
verisimilitude: As for that codes system, I've not yet read the other papers required to understand it properly.
trinque: not a big deal; I've been digesting it also
trinque: if the notions arrive in multiple skulls at some point all the better
verisimilitude: The paper mentions ``150 lines of Java'', so this doesn't seem like much work.
trinque: nah, seems very straightforward actually.
trinque: which makes it all the more sad that we're using connection-based protocols still.
verisimilitude: I could recognize, by what I understood, the OR nodes of this tree distribution are what seem to allow for message recovery.
trinque: verisimilitude: recall the way multiple parties implemented a V?
trinque: my intent was to get multiple folks to do same here.
trinque: I have not stopped anything meanwhile.
verisimilitude: Say, does anyone know offhand how many words Latin has, sans declensions and conjugations?
trinque: it'd probably be quite the historical review to find out, but if you wanted a ballpark, could see what whitaker's words contains for stems
verisimilitude: I wonder if the ceiling of the base two logarithm of this count is favorable to some ideas.
verisimilitude: I wonder if twelve bits be enough.
verisimilitude: Oh, I'm reminded of some common crocodile tears: ``Connectionless protocols that allow responses large compared to requests are bad, because large corporations get DDoSed by them!!!''
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032786 << to be pedantic, it's a sabotaged xorg fonts kit, nuffin to do w/ kernel

asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032787 << it's traditional jargon for a machine where one runs shitware (whether closed- or open- src), rendering it unhygienic (for crypto or even for being worth maintaining other than via win95 'nuke hdd erry other year' method)

asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032792 << i've in fact never once pressed a 3-key chord in emacs -- or anywhere else, not counting ctrl-alt-del -- and don't ever intend to

snsabot: (trilema) 2018-01-05 asciilifeform: but then again why the everlivingfuck would i run with defaults on a ~configurable~ tool that i use 14+ hr/day )
asciilifeform: fix yer .emacs, folx, before it 'fixes' you.
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032799 << proper crypto oughta (almost by definition, imho) make these irrelevant

asciilifeform: really the only plaintext field in a packet oughta be the destination.
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032806 << see also. (interestingly, the youtube clip of motad i had in there, is long-dead... anyone have replacement?)

asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032809 << i'd actually rec that folx start w/ luby's method, for study -- it is the simplest (and gets across the idea)
snsabot: Logged on 2021-03-04 16:15:39 trinque: if the notions arrive in multiple skulls at some point all the better
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-03-04#1032822 << somehow the idjit isps who ~to this day~ happily route packets w/ forged (i.e. originated outside of any of their owned ipblocks) source -- Officially blameless
