| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: i don't think so, and i thought about linking this, too heh (need to update/patch kernels if they are < 4.5) | [07:49] |

| trinque: | All those pnojes will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. | [07:57] |
| mircea_popescu: | they support the last flimsy pretense of public participation, you realise. about half the general population is functionally illiterate, will spend all their social time inthe day clucking at the things for literal lack of alternative options. | [07:57] |
| Framedragger: | trinque: sounds like a line from a text based adventure game :) | [07:58] |
| Framedragger: | ahh blade runner | [07:58] |
| trinque: | did they make one? it was Blade Runner, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep in tree form | [07:58] |
| mircea_popescu: | the options died because of the classical giant-sits-in-chair. in the decade intervening, bars went out of business, and people who knew how to run a bar moved on. it's not like the sheeple will raise up and RECONSTRUCT THE PUB. | [07:58] |
| Framedragger: | ah nice. | [07:58] |
| mircea_popescu: | so, once they go into the night, that's it. 4 concrete walls. | [07:58] |
| mircea_popescu: | same model repeating itself over and over and over again. oh, the ancient world where slave talked to woman talked to husband talked to headsman talked to senator was humiliating and inequalitarian ? let's flatten it into a system where 1% talk to the senator (1000% increase over the 0.1% of yore!!11) and the rest talk into an empty takeout box. PROGRESS!!!1 | [08:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | and besides, only terrorists would notice that moving from moderated but present inclusion of everyone towards absolutely exclusiuon of almost everyone is no fucking improvement in public access. what, comparisons ? RACIST!!1 thinking about things ?!!?!? MYSOGINY!!!11 | [08:08] |
| mircea_popescu: | idiots. | [08:08] |
| trinque: | that trilema was one of the more world-altering ones for me, where you described that the hierarchial social model actually gave better odds for the lower branches to be heard. not that this by itself is the most important thing, but rather that look, sense works better for everyone because it is sense. | [08:09] |
| mircea_popescu: | yeah. see, in 1617 the clerk interesterd could go ask the peasants, and if nobody did it was ~an option~ of theirs, which they could remedy or alter. today, pollster is going to talk to peasant's phone which'll tell him moot is to be nytimes man of the year, and he'll call the observation that inexplicably hillary clinton had no support, polls notwithstanding, "Fake news". this is NO LONGER AN OPTION OF HIS. | [08:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | huge fucking loss in human control over human affairs, and meanwhile the idiots are sitting around worrying about "Evil ai". hey, guess what, you don't need the ai to fuck you over. | [08:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | somehow the fact that i can make the phones ( or solar panels, or fridges/cars/whateverelse) read absolutely anything i wish while the poor fuckers supposedly so represented have exactly 0 recourse and 0 alternative is of no concern meanwhile the deeply inept conclave of imbeciles is happy and patting each other on the back ebcause hey, they stole a botnet! worth 2-3mn ie nothing! IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!!11 | [08:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | idiots, no more can be said, what. | [08:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | back in 1938 THIS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjJry0vhHj4 was a fucking thing. why ? i have no idea, because a black woman lost her fucking basket. who cares, what difference does it make ? i dunno, none that anyone can discern. NEvERTHELESS!!!!! there she is. she's there. with her stupid basket that only could possibly matter to her. yes, "and half a million black women entirely indistinguishable from her", but this as a | [08:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | natural fact not as an outside enforcement. | [08:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | today it's "here's a deck of representational trading cards, pick one to think you are, and we'll be reprersenting... the card!!! and therefore (?!?!?) you". | [08:32] |
| mircea_popescu: | do you wanna be a kimkardashialladin or a meganfoxarrior ? or perhaps a transgenderogue ? | [08:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | deck's got it fucking all, max aoe, max dps, defense buff, you name it! and don't fucking go "wtf is all this dumb shit" because that's self-radicalizing!!11 | [08:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's a rather tremendous difference between ella fitzgerald caring about her basket for no reason anyone could comprehend and a twentysomething pantsuided aide with 0 sexual experience and owing money coming up with "these are the four things THAT COULD BE, i spent a whole five minutes thinking through the "metaphysics" of "life" and this is what came out so therefore!1". yes, on their own devices people live lives that | [08:36] |
| mircea_popescu: | are bad literature. but there's a tremendous difference between letting them do just that and trying to force them to act in your badly written, tendentious bit of fanfic (with bowdlerized bits lifted from shakespeare and mark twain, just like the sad bits of processed fruit that made their way in your granola). | [08:36] |

| asciilifeform: | anybody here have a massive gentoo tarball mirror ? try searching for MSG_PEEK ? | [09:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | just did. 3 hits on socat. | [09:01] |
| asciilifeform: | and no other? same here. | [09:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | hence my comment above. | [09:01] |
| asciilifeform: | or rather, 0 here | [09:01] |
| asciilifeform: | i dun have socat | [09:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | no, but lots of usg-tronic "corporations" do. | [09:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | fucking useless chinese names btw. gotta start requiring serial numbers from them folk, i betcha there's 10`000 "zhiang wang" s | [09:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | and besides, they all spell it randomly. | [09:03] |
| Framedragger: | asciilifeform: i dunno who uses it, either, and why would it be used. it's kind of "remind me about this later" feature, pretty weird/useless | [09:23] |
| Framedragger: | hm. are there cases when the program would be like, "i don't have resources to handle this, later", in some embedded/realtime/low-resource context | [09:25] |
| Framedragger: | prolly no cases where you couldn't use something saner instead? | [09:25] |
| Framedragger: | you can get the length of incoming message by other means than just reading it into the buffer (through ioctl or w/e) | [09:28] |
| Framedragger: | so hm good point, pretty retarded | [09:28] |
| asciilifeform: | gotta wonder, the folx who signed off on the fix -- why they are silent ? why linus - silent | [09:32] |
| asciilifeform: | could say the truth, in theory, 'only used in socat, inserted by wrecker' | [09:33] |
| Framedragger: | what are they supposed to say? that this is socat-specific? because it's not | [09:35] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: as far as i can tell -- it is | [09:35] |
| asciilifeform: | also for some reason silence re authorship of the overflow.. | [09:36] |
| Framedragger: | maybe it is.. someone could be using it to get buffer length (folx exist who ask 'so how do i use MSG_PEEK for this...') | [09:37] |
| asciilifeform: | kernel is not vtronic, naturally, but linus dun take patches from thin air, they all have names attached | [09:37] |
| Framedragger: | can't you use `git blame` to find out the latter? | [09:37] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: possibly | [09:37] |
| Framedragger: | and commits in linux are pgp-signed, not just "ok"d | [09:37] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: so far nobody's turned it up anywhere but in socat | [09:38] |
| Framedragger: | there is that. | [09:38] |
| Framedragger: | i can find it elsewhere, too, but small/stupid projects | [09:40] |

| Framedragger: | asciilifeform: actually i can see some rationale. checking that socat source and that line (https://github.com/craSH/socat/blob/master/xio-udp.c#L220), if you check the definition of buff1, it's `char[1]`. | [09:44] |
| Framedragger: | it seems to use MSG_PEEK to check info on the connected peer (and drop it if need be), and by using this, it can avoid allocating additional memory to take in whole buffer | [09:45] |
| Framedragger: | i guess you could also do `recv(&one_byte_buffer)` and then later `recv(&larger_buffer)`, too but their use at least makes some sense to me. imho. | [09:46] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: this is foolish, you're reading the packet regardless | [09:46] |
| Framedragger: | (sure, data comes in to network card's buffer anyway) | [09:46] |
| asciilifeform: | it doesn't save memory. | [09:46] |
| asciilifeform: | it is the exact equivalent of an older idiocy, ungetc() | [09:47] |
| Framedragger: | it saves program-internal memory, but the card itself reads in the data regardless, sure. | [09:47] |
| Framedragger: | asciilifeform: hah, omg i've only heard about this and checking now, even the description is lulzy. "put stuff back into stream" | [09:47] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: it saves no memory of any sort | [09:48] |
| Framedragger: | yeah i see what you mean. ultimately it's bullshit/snakeoil. i was just saying that ~some~ sense was had (but you'll prolly deny even that - fair enough) | [09:48] |
| asciilifeform: | does same thing as normal recv(), except for clearing the buffer. | [09:48] |
| asciilifeform: | so packet can be (why?!) read twice. | [09:48] |
| asciilifeform: | no, no sense. | [09:48] |
| Framedragger: | yeah i know i know, ultimately pointless | [09:48] |
| Framedragger: | hm i guess you don't save *any* memory, i can see why | [09:49] |
| Framedragger: | you read in to a fixed size buffer and then discard info/connection if need be. they're pretending to be 'only reading one byte' but it's the kernel which chops off one byte from the rest of the packet | [09:50] |
| asciilifeform: | still 'crediting the empire', eh, Framedragger . | [09:51] |
| asciilifeform: | 'but there's GOTTA be a valid reason!!1' | [09:51] |
| asciilifeform: | nope. there never is. | [09:51] |

| Framedragger: | also there is an easy habit to slip into by which you start discarding any things a priori. (mp-emulator: that's not a bad thing(tm)) | [09:53] |
| Framedragger: | http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-13#1642864 << just for context/posterity, i meant ungetc() here, what a load of crap | [09:56] |

| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: fwiw i read the manpage prior to 'this is liquishit, there is 0 possible justification, it is exactly same as ungetc()' | [09:58] |
| asciilifeform: | i dun do the a priori thing. ( it may seem that way, because it does not ever take asciilifeform very long to distinguish flies from cutlets. but this comes from experience, and from flies and cutlets generally looking nothing alike. ) | [09:59] |
| Framedragger: | re manpage, thanks for educating me, as always - yeah ok it's the same thing | [09:59] |
