ave1: !#s systemd core [05:44]
a111: 1 result for "systemd core", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=systemd%20core [05:44]
ave1: http://btcbase.org/log/2014-09-03#819330, just got hit by this one [05:44]
a111: Logged on 2014-09-03 11:56 mircea_popescu: By default, systemd saves core dumps to the journal, instead of the file system. Core dumps must be explicitly queried using coredumpctl4. Besides going against all reason, it also creates complications in multi-user environments (good luck running gdb on your program's core dump if it's dumped to the journal and you don't have root access) [05:44]

BingoBoingo: <phf> ave1: i believe we're beyond linux haters now, this is the uncharted territory of everyone being an idiot << I am pretty sure this line was crossed irrevcably sometime between 2011 and 2015. Now we are just hitting new frontiers of idiocy [10:01]
ave1: yes, It's the process of going sarting with "why am I not getting any core dumps" to "o hey the kernel will call a program to handle core dumps" to "O fuck, systemd is called". And then systemd with all of it's policies and pure stupidity. [10:04]
ave1: And this process wastes time [10:05]

a111: Logged on 2018-07-09 02:22 mircea_popescu: basically, stepped beyond the corset something in her line much in the vein of "let's make sewing machine that ~doesn't try to immitate seamstres hand~" or "let's try and make flying machine that ~doesn't try to immitate bird~". creativity is creativity, resistence of medium is resistence of medium, can find a lot to like about fashion designer.

mircea_popescu: eg, whalebone was used because only material known strong, durable and flexible enough. [12:05]
mircea_popescu: and when i say "stepped beyond the corset" i mean, that she proposed the first recipe for obtaining lady (ie, lordship female) that is both a) dressed and b) not in a corset. [12:06]
mircea_popescu: her genesis took. [12:06]
asciilifeform: pretty sure i saw it in use -- iirc hanbot showed one at c3 [12:08]
asciilifeform: and i can definitely picture how it's a 'high tech' item, sure. [12:10]
phf: in america corsets are predominantly worn by overweight "doms", and they are bought from goth costume stores, a very peculiar item, that ensures that any mention of "corset" in the conversation indicates a loser [12:12]

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the display is not the use. the use is the lacing it. [12:13]
mircea_popescu: comes as close to giving the woman a good beating as humanly possible without welts and leather straps. which ~makes me suspect~ it was very much not coincidental [12:14]

mod6: !Qauctionlist 288 [16:41]
lobbesbot: AUCTION # 288: 1025 USD Opening: 1.5bn coppers Highest Bid: No bids Ending: 2018-07-12 20:35:38 UTC (71 hours 53 mins) [16:41]
mod6: !Qauctionlist 289 [16:41]
lobbesbot: AUCTION # 289: 1025 USD Opening: 1.5bn coppers Highest Bid: No bids Ending: 2018-07-12 20:35:56 UTC (71 hours 54 mins) [16:41]
mod6: I started up two auctions, selling 0.15 BTC chunks for a minimum of $1025 USD each. Winning bidder will send a WU payment or Wire Transfer to a specified WU location or Bank Account after the auction is closed. The winner will wait until receipt of the WU or Wire Transfer is complete before recieving coins won in auction. [16:44]
diana_coman: mod6, I find that confusing there: the auctions effectively state you are selling 1025$, not btc [16:45]
mod6: well... [16:45]
diana_coman: basically people can bid more btc , not more $ so I don't see how is this meant to work [16:45]
mod6: maybe help me out. how would you enter it in to make it more clear? [16:45]
mod6: nevermind, this clearly is not going to work. [16:46]
diana_coman: well, you are selling btc, right? so your "item" is 1.5bn coppers and the opening bid is 1025$ granted I'm not sure how would that work with lobbes's auction bot since the price there is in Ecu aka satoshis [16:46]
mod6: we need an auction bot that can do other things. [16:47]
diana_coman: it does seem to me that you need the functionality of lobbes's bot but with different parameters basically so perhaps customised, pizarro bot [16:47]
mod6: Everyone, I am selling BITCOIN in two chunks, each of 0.15 BTC in size. These are selling for $1025 USD. [16:47]
mod6: each. [16:48]
mod6: I need the buyer to make a WU payment or Wire Transfer to a destination that will be sent to the buyer. Upon completion of the WU or Wire Transfer, the bitcoins will be sent to whatever address you specify. [16:49]
lobbes: mod6: I'll work to see if I can spin up a custom fiat-for-btc version of the auctionbot for you to use next month. [16:49]
mod6: That would be wildly helpful. Something such as that, could basically replace the entire OTC. [16:50]
lobbes: word. I'll keep you updated [16:50]
mod6: cheers lobbes [16:51]
mod6: Furthermore, it's such a worthy project that The Bitcoin Foundation should entertain grant proposals for the hosting of the bot & it's corresponding webpage. [17:08]
mod6: *its [17:08]
lobbes: mod6 I would gladly work to earn that grant. As it is, I already need to get the 'legacy' auctionbot away from heathen dependencies (in this case, the 'supybot' api), so in building this custom auctionbot for pizarro I may just take the opportunity to design something sitting atop ircbot/logbot and eventually release a proper genesis [17:24]
mircea_popescu: mod6 interesting! [18:19]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-09#1833011 << what, have an auction bot denominated in dollars ? i expect washington will take pula before we take fiat, neh ? [18:22]
a111: Logged on 2018-07-09 20:47 mod6: we need an auction bot that can do other things. [18:22]
asciilifeform: as i understand, idea is auction of dollars denominated in btc (i.e. special-purpose honest exchange) [18:23]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-09#1833016 << this is not the correct solution. [18:24]
a111: Logged on 2018-07-09 20:49 lobbes: mod6: I'll work to see if I can spin up a custom fiat-for-btc version of the auctionbot for you to use next month. [18:24]
mircea_popescu: the correct solution is to distinguish selling and buying auctions. change the "A#285" lede into either "B#285" or "S#285" and then if it's a S have it work as it works now, but if it's a B have it work ~reverse~, so smaller bids overbid larger bids. [18:25]
mircea_popescu: and thusly keep transactions in the republic denominated in the currency of the republic. [18:26]
asciilifeform: logical. lobbes , can haz ? [18:26]
lobbes: mircea_popescu: this makes sense, and lines up with what dpb was saying in #p >> http://logs.bvulpes.com/pizarro?d=2018-7-9#396438 [18:30]
lobbes: asciilifeform: can haz. I'ma move this up to item #1 in hopper [18:35]
Mocky: so then the auction would go like a buy order for $1025 USD, with an opening bid of 0.15 BTC. Then a bid of 0.14 BTC overbids. This seems like all around a pretty convenient thing. [19:12]
mircea_popescu: yes. [19:20]
lobbes: also opens up the possibility of, say, bidding on job contracts, etc [19:26]
mircea_popescu: anything where something definite is sought, yep [19:27]
Mocky: trucker tits, opening bid 0.02 [19:29]
mircea_popescu: lo [19:33]
asciilifeform: meanwhile, via #p, in re fritzisms : http://archive.is/YiLsi << '...separate Ethernet network connection and run a proprietary embedded server management technology that provides out-of-band management features... curl -H "Connection: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"' << hardcoded nsa pw. [20:49]
mircea_popescu: hm. [20:51]
mircea_popescu: is this the kvm thing ? [20:51]
asciilifeform: one of those onboard mobo kvm-cum-sim-disk-cum-powertoggle-etc [20:51]
asciilifeform: 'lights-out management' [20:51]
mircea_popescu: aha [20:52]
asciilifeform: ~100% of the ones where anybody bothered to dig, have nsa door. [20:53]
asciilifeform: ( and the linked item is typical, usually it's a laughable hardcoded pw, cisco-style ) [20:53]
asciilifeform: i can only with great difficulty picture it being the ~only~ door, has the flavour of a decoy, 'hey we found & fixed, what do you want' [20:54]
mircea_popescu: possibru [20:58]
asciilifeform: old-fashioned pluggable hose kvm is typically equally laughable, but at least there you don't keep it around 24/7 [20:59]
