mircea_popescu thickasthieves apparently assbot had a little trouble coming back. [00:01]
cazalla morning, no hang over today and sun is shining [00:01]

mircea_popescu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urBbHrJnSmE [00:01]
assbot Bob Marley Sun Is Shining - YouTube [00:01]
thickasthieves does U mean something otherwise? [00:01]
kakobrekla unknown [00:01]
thickasthieves ah [00:01]
bounce apparently this "liberals" vs. "conservatives" thing has ameritardia thoroughly paralysed. [00:06]
mircea_popescu what is it even supposed to be anyway ? [00:08]
thickasthieves an excuse to do nothing but argue about doing nothing [00:08]
bounce oh hey, isn't that nice. instead of some js that'll popup a "[tweet] [fb]" thingy every time you select a bit of text, this here bunch has convenient prefab tweets with url and approved text that you but have to click on to tweet. [00:08]
* assbot gives voice to undata [00:09]
* virtuals has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [00:09]
mircea_popescu im sure it's all the win in social media. [00:09]
undata bounce: regarding repub/dem... anyone with a shred of intelligence has seen through it; however, those two parties have too much control over the election process to change anything [00:09]
bounce railroading, the new driver of discourse [00:10]
mircea_popescu bounce you realise what excellent seo this all is. [00:10]
mircea_popescu like, if you were google, right ? wouldn't you be fucking impressed to see the same text from 50 profiles all the damned time ? [00:10]
bounce with complete identical text and everything. bit-for-bit copies. [00:10]
mircea_popescu "i know, let's pay bob from Consultancy DerpAces LLC a million funbux so he can write an AI expert system that'll generate the text our readers would have put out! Save them the trouble!" [00:11]
bounce I'm like, "anybody click on that?" but [like] is a rather popular button too, no matter where you find the little fucker [00:11]
mircea_popescu tbh one of the things i like most about qntra is that there's no god damned "social media integration" [00:12]
bounce obxref cowclicker, but webscale. [00:12]
* bounce has a bunch of that blocked in hosts, but they keep coming up with new SMRTness [00:13]
BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: I assume people are perfectly capable of transporting urls to social media on their own. [00:13]
mircea_popescu bounce i just don't run js. does a lot. [00:13]
bounce ``The Pew Research Centeru2019s Journalism Project, founded in 1997 as the Project for Excellence in Journalism, seeks to assess the state of news and information in a changing society.'' -- that prefab tweet thing brought to you by these guys. party on! excellent! [00:14]
bounce must be an american shop. no sense of irony. [00:14]
mircea_popescu well they got this fake "irony" which is mostly badly done sarcasm [00:15]
mircea_popescu (ie, the lowest form of wit) [00:15]
bounce 1615 L Street, NW, Suite 700, washington, dc. there you go. [00:15]
thickasthieves omg this arguing for bits and ubits conversation makes me wanna line reddites and punch them one by one [00:15]
thickasthieves line up [00:15]
mircea_popescu bits and ubits ? [00:16]
bounce the kind of irony you get from that song [00:16]
Apocalyptic the name that should be given to 10^-8 BTC [00:16]

thickasthieves but felt a little wanting at the end [00:18]
thickasthieves i guess thats the point [00:18]
mircea_popescu i think the actor's an idiot that can't either act or sing, but that's okay : for one thing, so is timberlake. for the other : that's exactly the part. [00:18]
mircea_popescu like bridget fonda in jackie brown [00:18]
mircea_popescu that's exactly her job in life, being fucked in the ass for bubblegum and then shot in the stomach and left to bleed in a parking lot. [00:19]
thickasthieves lol alrighty then! [00:19]
thickasthieves yknow i felt the same way about jackie brown [00:19]

Apocalyptic jurov, h [00:41]
Apocalyptic *what specs for this price ? [00:41]
jurov Apocalyptic doesn't matter. even if the machine may be beefy, it is unpredictably intermittent [00:42]
mircea_popescu jurov a) how is 0.01 an hour the current going price ? b) motherboard 50bux, cpu 100 bux, memory 50 bux, hdd 50 bux. don't need a monitor. [00:42]
mircea_popescu ;;calc 0.01 * 24 * 365 / 300 [00:43]
gribble 0.292 [00:43]
mircea_popescu seems a 29% yearly return is not the worst fate. [00:43]
jurov you forgot electricity :) [00:43]
mircea_popescu well yea, $0 is the currently going price for that [00:43]
mircea_popescu if we're making up numbers, why not/. [00:44]
Apocalyptic also to nitpick the prices you listed add up to $250n not $300 :) [00:44]
kakobrekla 4 [00:44]
mircea_popescu Apocalyptic i felt generous. [00:44]
jurov and it's ballpark figure for spot instances, why would our price be vastly different? [00:44]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 22118 @ 0.00073583 = 16.2751 BTC [-] {2} [00:44]
mircea_popescu jurov if you mean spot instances such as amazon or w/e, a) those come with riders and b) try and get a dedicated ip say. [00:45]
jurov a) is better and cheaper solved by distribution of $maxint mass produced boxen than relying on users to diy [00:46]

pete_dushenski ilike. [01:43]
Apocalyptic regarding: "20 sed -i '/USE_UPNP:=0/d' ./makefile.unix", why not USE_UPNP:=- ? [01:44]

gribble The operation succeeded. [01:44]
Apocalyptic exactly, you want it ? [01:44]
ben_vulpes do I? [01:44]
ben_vulpes Apocalyptic: do let me know if there's a good reason to keep UPNP in there. [01:46]
jurov disablewallet=1 would not work with 0.5.3 [01:46]
Apocalyptic well if you don't I don't see the point in the '0', [01:46]
Apocalyptic there is not [01:46]
ben_vulpes oh oh [01:46]
Apocalyptic but then just replace the '0' with a hyphen [01:46]
jurov also rpcpassword is required [01:47]
Apocalyptic nukes it straight away (and yes there actually is (or was) 3 levels for that var in the makefile, 1,0 and - ) [01:47]

cazalla i posted about it : [01:48]
jurov ben_vulpes: just read the makefile and try whatever sticks. i remmeber having to, too [01:48]
ben_vulpes well it builds quite happily. [01:49]
Apocalyptic ben_vulpes, aha, so i guess i mistook the hyphen for the empty char [01:49]
Apocalyptic anyway use "USE_UPNP=" to build without it [01:49]
ben_vulpes later they introduced the hyphen, that apparently wasn't a thing at 0.5.3 [01:49]
ben_vulpes so forgive my c makefile naivte, but is there a difference between an USE_UPNP= and just not declaring the variable? [01:49]

Apocalyptic so forgive my c makefile naivte, but is there a difference between an USE_UPNP= and just not declaring the variable? // that i do not know, not a bash specialist [01:50]
kakobrekla ben_vulpes i assume theres a default value ? [01:50]
kakobrekla grep it [01:51]
ben_vulpes in the makefile? [01:51]
kakobrekla where theres any config? [01:51]
ben_vulpes i ripped the assignation line out entirely. later there's an ifndef that assigns it to the hyphen. [01:52]
mike_c ben_vulpes: i know in later version i had to explicitly set it blank [01:54]

asciilifeform mebbe we ought to do 0.1 ? [04:37]

decimation it's not in 0.1 [04:46]
BingoBoingo asciilifeform: The earliest is going to probably be 0.4 or late 0.3.x series [04:47]
othernubs` 0.4.0 does not have qt, 0.5.0 does [04:48]
BingoBoingo patches to the bdb conf because... Hearn sucks [04:48]

mircea_popescu decimation innit. [05:19]
BingoBoingo glossy, indestructible. << long term problem with glossy paper is it tends to flake.. Not just ink, but white surface... [05:19]
TheNewDeal I am catching up the logs, which is why I brought it up [05:19]
mircea_popescu yeah maybe a good idea to use low acid paper [05:20]
decimation my good bible is printed on very thin but weirdly strong paper. thin paper is nice, in the sense that it tends to lie flat [05:20]
mircea_popescu decimation cotton paper. expensive. [05:21]

ben_vulpes but when you're taught that the right solution to all problems is to do it by hand, with the tools handed one by authority, unlearning that is hard [07:15]

ben_vulpes mod6: which deps? [07:16]
othernubs` so we'll split the difference between 0.5.3 and 0.6.3, go with 0.5.8 [07:16]

othernubs` ostensibly later versions have more bugfixes and improvements but also more cruft and potentially introduced attack vectors [07:31]
mircea_popescu othernubs` you'll never get there. but anyway : 0.6.3 most recent acceptable ; 0.5.3 i guess, earliest acceptable. [07:32]

ben_vulpes this is where docker starts coming in handy: instead of burning many hours on chasing down platform and architecture details to get the thing to work on os x, i'm leaning towards just running 0.5.3 in a VM. [08:01]
ben_vulpes 0.5.6rc3 works << enhanced sync speed? [08:02]
mircea_popescu doubt it. [08:02]
mircea_popescu but you don't want it to sync anyway, just feed it a preindexed chain. [08:03]

* ben_vulpes thinks [08:17]
ben_vulpes none that can't wait for the morrow [08:18]
mircea_popescu the ideal way would be for you to let the thing sync naturally [08:18]
ben_vulpes i agree, yeah. [08:18]
mircea_popescu it'll take a few weeks, but what's the rush, and this way you get an authenti ccopy. [08:18]
ben_vulpes mhm precisely. [08:18]
ben_vulpes i'm not concerned about the speed nearly as much as i am the thing working correctly with the network. [08:18]
mircea_popescu so then nm, let it buzz. [08:19]
ben_vulpes although if you'd be willing to share your tarball and a version number against which i could build that might show some interesting things on a block-by-block diffing [08:19]
mircea_popescu there is one caveat, specifically, that you must make a file named DB_CONFIG that contains a set_lg_dir database set_lk_max_locks 500000 [08:19]
mircea_popescu or else it'll die once it reaches end of 2013 [08:20]
mircea_popescu im not running stock, and what would it show ? [08:20]
mircea_popescu the client doesn't keep "blocks" exactly, it's messier [08:20]
ben_vulpes right. [08:20]
ben_vulpes so every blockchain could be a snowflake. [08:20]
mircea_popescu notrly, cause we know what's in the zero block [08:21]
mircea_popescu but every actual blockchain download is a snowflake [08:21]
ben_vulpes i'm thinking in terms of bits on disk [08:21]
mircea_popescu you can't mix and match blkxxxx from one install with another's. [08:21]
ben_vulpes but if you supply the entire datadir, you can boot one install with another's blockchain? [08:22]
ben_vulpes provided set_lk_max_locks type configs are in place? [08:22]
mircea_popescu yup. [08:23]
ben_vulpes hm. [08:23]
mircea_popescu the whole set of xxxx's and blkindex.dat [08:23]
ben_vulpes this has been educational indeed. [08:23]
mircea_popescu course, you would be relying on the verification done by the op [08:23]
ben_vulpes mhm. [08:23]
mircea_popescu but i have bootstrapped new nodes in this way [08:23]
* othernubs` has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [08:23]
mircea_popescu (it's actually the point of the torrent palliative back in the day) [08:23]
ben_vulpes should la serenissima publish a torrent? [08:24]
mircea_popescu anyway, to be perfectly fair : the bdb arrangement wasn't really tenable on the long haul. it had to be replaced with a better db. [08:24]
mircea_popescu the noobs aren't really capable of handling the sort of requirements to dld a full chain. [08:25]

asciilifeform no link to bitbet << It Would Be Wrong! (TM) [22:51]
mircea_popescu But it's not all bad news for Berkshire. Investors are sticking with their icon. Berkshire stock climbed slightly on Monday and Tuesday, and is up more than 17% this year -- far outpacing the broader market. <<< consider this lulz. [22:52]
* bradedwards has quit (Quit: Page closed) [22:52]
mircea_popescu ko missed, tesco lost 50% yoy, ibm just paid a bn to gut itself. so now it's basically a real estate agent (as previously discussed, in these very logs, before the news hit) [22:52]
mircea_popescu yet the berkshire stock is... up. because logics. [22:52]
