| ave1: | diana_coman: re, http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-18#1897863, will do, It's about 100mb total I see. | [00:04] |
| a111: | Logged on 2019-02-18 08:56 diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-18#1897858 -> ah, so broken links were only in the older versions? anyway: ave1 please do me a favour and point any fetch/download scripts to a mirror of the stuff on your own website, there is no way around this. For one thing I'd much rather download from a republican site and for the other as experience has already amply shown, any external site WILL move them, change them, drop them and it will at best br | [00:04] |
| ave1: | Btw asciilifeform, I had to switch my cheap NFS account to a more expensive one as php 5.6 is no longer supported in their new setup. I expect that sometime, at the end of this year, 5.6 will also disappear from "production" sites. | [00:07] |
| BingoBoingo: | Also, local mystery in the barrio La Commercial https://www.elobservador.com.uy/nota/una-lluvia-de-disparos-y-el-terror-de-una-familia-de-tener-a-un-profugo-en-su-casa--201921819212 | [00:25] |
| asciilifeform: | http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-19#1898025 << actually pretty grainy ( the barbaric film is to blame ) but in the full res jpg can still see e.g. the au whiskers connecting ic pins to dies etc | [00:43] |
| a111: | Logged on 2019-02-19 04:56 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nice! pic is quite crisp huh. | [00:43] |
| asciilifeform: | that was btw a 35mm film. instrument can eat 35x35 ~cm~, for ~100x magnification.. ( i just dun have any on hand atm ) | [00:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | ave1 why not just pizarro ? | [01:18] |

| BingoBoingo: | ^ Bed time | [01:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | the mister god point is pretty fucking lulzy, not to mention accurate. | [01:49] |
| BingoBoingo: | Ah, ty fixed the double You in that footnote | [01:56] |
| * asciilifeform | updated testfire piece ( die shot detail ) | [12:31] |
| asciilifeform: | http://www.loper-os.org/pub/misc/xray/dead_samsung_35kv_100s.jpg << to complete yest. thrd : the least rubbishy shot of the dead samsung. steel shell prolly calls for a scintillator screen , and large film, to actually get decent shot. but even here usbistic contacts sorta visible. | [12:37] |
| asciilifeform: | incidentally, asciilifeform was thinking, glitter + epoxy + xray == pretty good '3d' seal. | [12:41] |
| BingoBoingo: | That it could | [13:13] |
| asciilifeform: | the obv problem is that you need 70kg of deathray to verify the seal | [13:14] |
| asciilifeform: | ( plus dose the poor silicon erry time ) | [13:15] |
| asciilifeform: | you'd want pb foil over the packages, ideally | [13:16] |
| BingoBoingo: | Well, it isn't unthinkable that 70 kg of deathray ends up being a fairly common castle ammenity | [13:18] |
| asciilifeform: | fuhrerbunker , we know had one ( fella was obsessed with 'what if mailbomb' etc ) | [13:19] |
| asciilifeform: | 1 slightly moar practical variant of this seal would be if could make the 'glitter' in the epoxy from kcl or other commonplace mild radioactive. then tape instant film over the chassis and develop/swap erry coupla months, and compare the liquishit to previous photo. | [13:22] |
| * asciilifeform | considered this yrs ago as a possible onetimepad scheme , but not satisfied that it could be repeatable enuff for digitize | [13:29] |
| asciilifeform: | recall, thrd where 'is it possible to make a bag of rngola that 1) exists in 2 copies 2) cannot be quickly read in transit to destination' | [13:31] |
| BingoBoingo: | Meanwhile, in the "Your average guy" files: http://archive.is/loUn7 | [15:16] |
| asciilifeform: | ugh | [15:17] |
| * asciilifeform | prefers the http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-12#1895439 site, at least was sorta entertaining | [15:17] |
| a111: | Logged on 2019-02-12 15:39 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i associate shitoverflow with articles like 'how do i cast 'fireball' in real life?' ( actual find ) | [15:17] |
| asciilifeform: | ^ for bonus lulz, it wasn't the 'iso std d&d fireball' but the http://trilema.com/2014/the-all-american-asshole-in-his-own-words-with-my-own-notes/#selection-1021.79-1025.1 thing, from what i gather was a 'mortal combat' clone of some type | [15:18] |
| bvt: | trinque: booted just fine after messing with kernel config a bit, which is expected from a previously not used machine | [15:25] |
| mircea_popescu: | it's better to document the messing than not to. | [16:17] |
| shinohai: | This trb addy I just generated for a payment: 1HANBox41dKXNhmdXsPgoYbbJgBqp86sCq "hanbox" lol | [18:41] |

| trinque: | bvt: would be great to put the config you produced on your blog with what hardware you use. | [19:59] |
| trinque: | later this can inform a process of muntzing shit off the kernel | [20:00] |
| trinque: | relatedly, here's a worthy task for an idle hand : find the oldest kernel you can boot on hardware you're willing to use | [20:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | ^ | [21:25] |
| mircea_popescu: | the "compatibility through software length" thing has gone on long enough. | [21:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | from now on, "compatibility through doing things a ~certain~ way, for good and ~well explained~ reasons". | [21:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | nevermind "open source". honor the same lordship, therefore have well explained things, therefore have compatibility. | [21:30] |
| nicoleci: | in latest http://trilema.com/2013/its-been-an-epic-few-days-what-happened/#selection-453.43-453.86 news, google plus is being shut down " due to low usage and challenges involved in maintaining a successful product". | [22:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | keks | [22:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | "C++ is philosophically and cognitively unsound as it forces a violation of all known epistemological processes on the programmer." | [23:53] |
| mircea_popescu: | this sounds quite persuasively elegant and so on. but then, | [23:54] |
| mircea_popescu: | "as a language, it requires you to specify in great detail what you do not know in order to obtain the experience necessary to learn it." | [23:54] |
| mircea_popescu: | well what the fuck. like on earth turns out to be just as philosophically and cognitively unsound. which it is. | [23:54] |
