mod6 haha, what's on his chest? sushi rolls? [00:01]
asciilifeform standard weights, presumably [00:02]
mod6 ah ha [00:02]
mod6 ``Strong and Tough Sentence'' [00:03]
asciilifeform peine forte et dure - was not an execution, as such [00:03]
mod6 thought it was just like some occult dining ritual [00:03]
asciilifeform it was a procedure for folks who refused to plead (submit to the jurisdiction of the court. formerly, english courts could only try folks who 'agreed' to be tried) [00:03]
mod6 ah [00:04]
asciilifeform sometimes, 'agreement' required some... persuasion. [00:04]
mircea_popescu no idea how that could un-become being the case. [00:04]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: perhaps they ran out of good weights [00:04]
mod6 thats when they call in the MOAR.jpg cake eating chick to sit on his face. [00:05]
mircea_popescu lol [00:06]
asciilifeform lucky if only sit! [00:07]
asciilifeform (fans of 'forte et dure' will love neal stephenson's mega-backbreaker-yarn 'baroque cycle', where an entire chapter is devoted to it) [00:08]
asciilifeform BingoBoingo: the 486 was, i admit, because i wanted to play a bit of games again. [00:10]
asciilifeform after decade+ [00:10]
* OneFixt has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [00:10]
asciilifeform (and '3d studio' aha) [00:11]
mod6 remember kings quest? that was a 486 game iirc [00:11]
asciilifeform mod6: i have a mega-warez-set of -all- of sierra works (incl. that series) waiting for the day that never comes. [00:11]
BingoBoingo asciilifeform: No shame in that [00:12]
asciilifeform (on that day, i have 1) fanless 486 2) with genuine 'sound blaster 64' 3) trinitron 4) free time.) [00:12]
mod6 asciilifeform: ahh, cool, well, hopefully you'll get to play 'em again [00:12]
asciilifeform perhaps after the war. [00:12]
mod6 there you go [00:13]
mod6 speaking of which... is nosuchlabs.com down? [00:13]
asciilifeform mod6: very much [00:13]
asciilifeform mod6: box went awol [00:13]
asciilifeform so far no word from boxmeisters. [00:14]
mod6 ah, ok. thought /maybe/ i saw that in the log. [00:14]
mod6 was just gonna check on the phuctor stats [00:14]
mod6 thing was cranking through the keys nicely. [00:14]
asciilifeform mod6: what you probably saw was me bitching at mircea_popescu (through whom i have this box) [00:14]
asciilifeform and it was actually in snarf-only mode when it fell down [00:15]
mod6 ah. well it got bored maybe. [00:15]
* asciilifeform bbl [00:15]
mod6 im getting closer to my v0.5.3.1-RELEASE perf full bc sync baseline being finished; currently on block 304969 -- it did oomkill today though, and didn't see it for like 8-9 hours :/ [00:18]
* bagels7 has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds) [00:18]
mod6 there will be some flat lines in the charts, but should still be able to get some sort of picture showing us the diff in network traf & other utilization metrics. [00:20]
mod6 After this one is done, I was going to run a vanilla v0.5.3 to get a baseline from that as well. And I will do that, but did remember that it /does/ at least require the db patch to achieve full sync. [00:21]
mircea_popescu i dsunno, tis being looked into [00:21]
decimation asciilifeform: I couldn't find any of your fanless thin clients on ebay [00:21]
decimation ebay's selection of old electronics seems to thin daily [00:21]
mod6 Then I can compare and contrast and work with ben on a writeup for qntra [00:21]

mircea_popescu "In 2010, Poole was reported to have raised $625,000 to create a new online enterprise, Canvas.

mod6 Speaking of Blazing Saddles... that movie is so damn funny. I must have watched it 20x as a kid. But what's interesting was recently I heard/read about these "Animal Trials" in Europe during the middle-ages. Makes me think of that part where they're hanging that guy AND his horse. lol [00:47]

cazalla too late as i've already potted it up, but at least i learned about this plant breeders rights rubbish.. guess i'll have some cutting warez in a few years time [02:15]
cazalla who would've thought you can have a cracked copy of a tree [02:16]
mircea_popescu so this entire moot-Mallory Blair Greitzer thing reads a lot like, skank fucking raid leader for jools. [02:16]
mircea_popescu which i think happens about 9k times a year, just, usually nobody outside of the guild forum gives a shit [02:17]
cazalla meh cuckchan died long before that anyway [02:19]
mircea_popescu anyway, i've had a decent chuckle reading the reports pushed by people scrambling to cope with my brusque, sudden, unexpected movements. [02:23]

decimation heh "Blizzard Entertainment has banned ?a large number? of World of Warcraft accounts after finding that they were using bots, or ?third-party programs that automate gameplay? according to a company post. " [02:31]
decimation rpgs are full of bots! the horror! [02:31]
mircea_popescu lol [02:31]
cazalla decimation, welcome to 10 years ago [02:31]
cazalla i had a few extra accounts i used with wowglider to mine ore and herbs [02:32]
decimation apparently they banned "a large number" of accounts http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/17347095985 [02:32]
cazalla reads as the standard announcement they've been making for years now [02:33]
decimation cazalla: I got to think thaw wow is losing popularity [02:33]
decimation it would be interesting to know the actual revenue figures [02:33]
cazalla the sub numbers are out there, it peaked like 5 years ago [02:34]
cazalla i quit after wotlk but i was a day one nov 2004 player so.. [02:34]
asciilifeform http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-05-2015#1133775 << no one noticed this detail !?!?! [02:34]
assbot Logged on 16-05-2015 03:14:16; mod6: im getting closer to my v0.5.3.1-RELEASE perf full bc sync baseline being finished; currently on block 304969 -- it did oomkill today though, and didn't see it for like 8-9 hours :/ [02:34]
decimation you gotta think that at some point the thing flips and blizzard would welcome chinese farmers [02:35]
asciilifeform so it -doesn't- run in constant space. [02:35]
asciilifeform -nor- has any detectable (through the usual automatic means, e.g. valgrind) leaks. [02:35]
cazalla decimation, they allow gold buying/seller for game time in recent months [02:35]
asciilifeform mod6: please post any data you may have collected at the moment of the oomkill [02:36]
cazalla they game is fucking long dead though.. it made everything fair so that all players are equal.. seriously.. why even bother playing an mmorpg then if i can't grief the fuck out of people with my rare sword and mount [02:36]
asciilifeform incl., if you have it, a core dump [02:36]
cazalla that game.. i swear i have brain damage from alcohol : [02:36]
asciilifeform this goes for anyone else who got oomkill with orphanage-thermonuke specifically, on a box with ad libitum ram [02:36]
decimation asciilifeform: on another project I've been chasing an oomkill that happens ... when acpi is turned on [02:37]
asciilifeform l0lwut [02:38]
asciilifeform reliably? [02:38]
decimation asciilifeform: absolutely [02:38]
decimation I've still not gotten to the bottom of it, but my point is that the kernel could also be at fault [02:38]
decimation and/or hardware batshit [02:39]
asciilifeform decimation: take that machine out to the boonies and use for target practice. [02:39]
decimation would love to [02:39]
decimation asciilifeform: it's really hard to find detailed specs for all the shitty thin terms out there [02:42]
asciilifeform decimation: mostly low-end p1s [02:42]
asciilifeform of very little interest, even historical kind [02:42]
asciilifeform and you won't find one with isa slot. [02:42]
asciilifeform (before anyone asks, i fucking hate 'dosbox' emulator) [02:43]
decimation why do you need isa?? [02:43]
decimation hehe yeah that makes sense [02:43]
asciilifeform for the sb64 of course [02:43]
decimation heh. I still remember my old soundblaster [02:43]
decimation I think i trashed it years ago [02:43]
decimation you can never get the timing right one emulators [02:44]
asciilifeform it is theoretically possible to get the sound right. but never happened, and i doubt - ever will [02:44]
* decimation remembers playing space quest on his 8088 [02:44]
decimation with - cga graphics [02:44]
decimation I remember thinking as a kid 'why would you not always have the turbo button activated?' [02:45]
asciilifeform decimation: 'turbo' on my old boxes, it turned out, just disabled l2 cache. the lamps lied to us. [02:45]
cazalla did you have a keyboard lock on your tower? my old man tried that shit on me but some how i had the idea to open it up and remove cable [02:45]
asciilifeform (mine had a set of led lamps which toggled number, supposedly cpu clock, from '40' to '10') [02:45]
asciilifeform had keyboard lock, but misplaced key almost immediately after we got it [02:46]
asciilifeform had thought 'who in his right mind would lock' [02:46]
cazalla parents [02:46]
asciilifeform lol [02:46]
decimation as I recall it was an epson apex http://www.computerhistory.org/collections/catalog/102633612 [02:48]
decimation assbot is dead? [02:48]
decimation then later I got a 486DX from gateway [02:49]
decimation I ran slackware on it for a little while, kernel 1.2 as I recall [02:50]
decimation I wish I would have met a neckbeard at that time who would have forced me to learn emacs [02:50]

mod6 <+asciilifeform> mod6: please post any data you may have collected at the moment of the oomkill << so just to reiterate here, the current perf test I'm running is with the v0.5.3.1-RELEASE which oomkill'd (as it's known to do). I'll post the nmon charts, log, and vmstat log. no core file was created. However, as a reminder, the previous perf test that I ran with v0.5.3.1-RELEASE+{asciilifeform_orphanage_thermonuke.patch}(http://thebitcoin.foundatio [03:42]
* bagels7 has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) [03:43]
mod6 Addtionally, I 100% agree, if anyone else should test either of these and capture anything surrounding the OOMKILL either in the v0.5.3.1-RELEASE or a patched version of v0.5.3.1-RELEASE, please let us know. [03:43]
* bagels7 (~cherry@67.71.75.191) has joined #bitcoin-assets [03:44]

mircea_popescu over here wiz. [10:13]
wiz I've been reading your website recently, your blog articles are great [10:14]
wiz Roger Ver first told me about your exchange a few weeks ago, I've been reading your site in my spare time since then [10:14]
mircea_popescu cool. [10:14]
mircea_popescu anything in particular ? [10:14]
wiz and I'm listening to this video now, that's how I heard about the channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWgPpDRo9AQ [10:14]
wiz well, I really like the concept of "unregistered corporations" [10:15]
mircea_popescu wait, someone made a youtube about b-a ? [10:15]
wiz well he mentioned the channel several times so far in the presentation [10:15]
mircea_popescu pretty cool [10:16]
wiz it occured to me that once underground markets master the art of operatings as "unregistered corporations", they will be at a huge competitive advantage to state-registered corporations [10:17]
wiz and eventually, corporations will migrate to being unregistered, to remain competitive [10:17]
wiz i mean, not paying tax to the state, or being restricted by their regulations, etc. is a huge competitive advantage in any market, white or black [10:18]
mircea_popescu kinda the idea. [10:19]

jurov mircea_popescu: jolly good [10:46]
jurov copypaste: the banners are truncated on bottom/right :-/ [10:48]
jurov both in ff and chrome [10:48]
jurov and i can§t get the coinbr one to show [10:50]
copypaste I see why. Your HTML output should make sure to have no page margin. The image must be right in the top left hand corner of the browser. [10:50]
copypaste I didn't notice it because all the current ads fit. [10:51]
copypaste I think that a style on the tag like padding:0;margin:0 should fix it. [10:51]
copypaste I can't do that on my end though, has to be done on the calling website (trilema.com). [10:51]
copypaste Regarding not being able to add your own ad, only mircea_popescu can do that/knows how. [10:52]
jurov i know. i like to fill the image as close to the border as possible [10:52]
jurov just one of the things that causes seizures to my friend pro designer :) [10:53]
copypaste Understood. Hopefully mircea will fix that when he wakes up. :) Need to put a tag around the tag, with style="padding:0;margin:0" [10:53]
copypaste It's 10PM here so I'm headed off soon. [10:54]

asciilifeform davout: (not hard, because 1st ed. is virtually impossible to find. i actually preferred it, though, had better paper. and the differences are negligible) [14:08]

* assbot gives voice to deedbot- [23:39]
decimation it occurs to me that one use of deedbot would be timestamping potential evidence, like camera/video captures [23:40]
asciilifeform http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-05-2015#1134106 << they did exist, 'field emission display' (essentially a crt with one electron gun - of cold cathode type - per subpixel!) [23:40]
asciilifeform http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-05-2015#1134108 << they don't need to turn sharp corners, in our hypothetical machine [23:41]
assbot Logged on 17-05-2015 00:04:19; jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-05-2015#1134094 if we'd be able to manipulate electron ray so precisely, why no thin CRT's exist? [23:41]
assbot Logged on 17-05-2015 00:08:31; jurov: i suspect turning electrons in sharp curves needs a strong mag field -> high current [23:41]

assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 8546 @ 0.00027986 = 2.3917 BTC [+] {2} [23:43]
asciilifeform ben_vulpes: what does the knob do ? [23:43]
decimation I use it to tune my virtual radio [23:44]
ben_vulpes twiddles kitchen lead time for operators of trinque's webmachine [23:44]
asciilifeform aha it's a joystick [23:44]
* ben_vulpes off to wedding [23:44]
asciilifeform ben_vulpes: before you go - did it work ? [23:44]
decimation https://store.griffintechnology.com/powermate [23:44]
asciilifeform and wai wat [23:45]
asciilifeform ben_vulpes plugged it into a serial port ?!?!! [23:45]
asciilifeform (after i explained, in agonizing detail, why this will not work...) [23:45]
asciilifeform and who holds soldering iron like this, l0l! [23:46]
decimation asciilifeform: looks like one of those ebay usb/3.3v serial dongles [23:46]
decimation someone who doesn't have a proper vice [23:47]
asciilifeform vice?! [23:47]
asciilifeform for soldering iron! lol [23:47]
decimation or holder deal [23:47]
decimation no, for the object being soldered [23:47]
asciilifeform decimation: that dongle is just the thing for, e.g., pogo - but the rng is not a rs232 device... [23:47]
asciilifeform it doesn't spit out start or stop bits [23:48]
decimation heh [23:48]
asciilifeform http://www.best-microcontroller-projects.com/image-files/how-rs232-works-tx-logic-rs232-diag.png << example [23:48]
asciilifeform (if it did, it would be perfectly usable as rs232) [23:48]
asciilifeform but it doesn't. [23:49]
decimation did you intend to use an spi device [23:49]
asciilifeform nope [23:49]
asciilifeform it's raw rng [23:49]
* williamdunne has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) [23:49]
decimation ah I see [23:49]
asciilifeform i.e. a pin that changes level when it wants. [23:49]
* williamdunne (~Thunderbi@cpc65609-newt33-2-0-cust1010.19-3.cable.virginm.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets [23:50]
decimation so really you need a '1-bit adc' [23:50]
asciilifeform now, if you have a -very- well-behaved os, you could sample it as rs232 anyway. but then you discover (see old mircea_popescu article where we stepped on this caltrop!) that you end up losing bytes that match 'control' section of ascii table [23:50]
decimation asciilifeform: or you could use a parallel port, if your computer has one [23:51]
asciilifeform decimation: this was what i told ben_vulpes at c3 [23:51]
asciilifeform to use parallel port [23:51]
asciilifeform or, if cannot find machine having such - sound card [23:51]
indiancandy1 huh [23:51]
decimation one can still buy 'em even for pci express [23:51]
* cherrry has quit () [23:51]
asciilifeform decimation: i have one such installed right here [23:51]
asciilifeform in regular use. [23:51]
decimation I would worry about potential noise in the sound card [23:52]
indiancandy1 wat r y talkin bout [23:52]
* assbot gives voice to williamdunne [23:52]
asciilifeform decimation: the noise doesn't matter, rng outputs logic-level signal [23:52]
decimation but if the levels are high enough and you use some kind of clipping algorithm it wouldn't be an issue [23:52]
williamdunne https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbmWGrQjgTA anyone seen this dose of autism? [23:52]
decimation indiancandy1: sampling random signals [23:52]
indiancandy1 wat [23:53]
indiancandy1 abt hot guys here lol [23:53]
indiancandy1 any********* [23:53]
asciilifeform indiancandy1: sorry only cold [23:54]
williamdunne indiancandy1: I'm a 7" tall Somalian [23:54]
williamdunne Or is that 7'? [23:54]
williamdunne I can never remember [23:54]
asciilifeform indiancandy1: and the item we were talking about, was this: http://www.loper-os.org/pub/mf3_compare.jpg [23:54]
indiancandy1 i just bought some baloons of a somalian [23:54]
asciilifeform specifically the one on the left. [23:54]
decimation asciilifeform: I wonder how cricital sampling clock variation would be [23:55]
asciilifeform decimation: the problem with using sound card would be that it has ac-coupled input. [23:55]
indiancandy1 there is a somalian guu [23:55]
williamdunne indiancandy1: they break yet? [23:55]
indiancandy1 guy seelling baloons [23:55]
indiancandy1 with that gass in [23:55]
indiancandy1 on the street [23:55]
indiancandy1 the gass they give to pregnant [23:55]
decimation asciilifeform: yeah good point. you could use it with an analog mixer and an audio signal generator [23:55]
williamdunne asciilifeform: Excuse my ignorance, but what is the box over the chips for? [23:56]
williamdunne indiancandy1: *inflate. [23:56]
asciilifeform williamdunne: rf shield (in the photo, it is missing the cover) [23:56]
cazalla http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-05-2015#1134218 <<< matches indiancandy1's 7" nose [23:56]
assbot Logged on 17-05-2015 02:50:28; williamdunne: indiancandy1: I'm a 7" tall Somalian [23:56]
asciilifeform williamdunne: see third photo from ben_vulpes's link for what cover looked like [23:56]
williamdunne Ahh I see, looks good. Didn't realize how complete it looks [23:57]
decimation asciilifeform: your old soundblaster card came with a joystick input [23:57]
williamdunne indiancandy1: who are you? [23:57]
* assbot removes voice from indiancandy1 [23:57]
decimation as I recall they were dc-coupled potentiometers [23:57]
asciilifeform williamdunne: she is/was one of mircea_popescu's camgurlz, iirc [23:57]
asciilifeform !up indiancandy1 [23:58]
* assbot gives voice to indiancandy1 [23:58]
williamdunne indiancandy1: asciilifeform: ahh I see, indian have you met Naphex? [23:58]
indiancandy1 who am i [23:58]
williamdunne yes [23:58]
asciilifeform decimation: at any rate, the -correct- way to sample these for experimental purposes is with either parallel port or a generic i/o gadget (e.g., 'ftdi') [23:58]
indiancandy1 im like the only pretty girl who comes in here [23:58]
williamdunne Thats subjective [23:59]
