asciilifeform: betcha the output has ~0 entropy also. [00:45]
pete_dushenski: "The researchers investigated two fossils of Graecopithecus freybergi with state-of-the-art methods and came to the conclusion that they belong to pre-humans. Their findings, published today in two papers in the journalPLOS ONE, further indicate that the split of the human lineage occurred in the Eastern Mediterranean and not - as customarily assumed - in Africa." [00:45]
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: i set it!!? [00:45]
asciilifeform: on what ? [00:45]
asciilifeform: and check your wiring [00:46]

mod6: mornin' [10:14]
shinohai: Morning mod6, mircea_popescu [10:27]
mircea_popescu: hey hey [10:28]
mod6: asciilifeform, pete_dushenski, et. al. I noticed the slowness of reading from the USB-TTL too. i had mine set to read at 115200 baud or whatever, but still was only pretty slow. i don't have any metrics off hand. [10:37]
mod6: can get some later. maybe need to change the baud setting, or even something different. [10:38]
mod6: trinque & ben_vulpes : thanks for helping CluelessNoob. [10:38]
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-30#1663156 << what kB/s specifically ? [10:40]
a111: Logged on 2017-05-30 14:37 mod6: asciilifeform, pete_dushenski, et. al. I noticed the slowness of reading from the USB-TTL too. i had mine set to read at 115200 baud or whatever, but still was only pretty slow. i don't have any metrics off hand. [10:40]
asciilifeform: iirc mod6 you posted a few dd outputs, it was always 7-8 as per spec. [10:40]
asciilifeform: ftr , for people who refuse to read the source : FUCKGOATS emits at 115200 baud STRICTLY!!! [10:42]
mod6: ah, well from my *linux* machine i was around ~7kb/s [10:42]
asciilifeform: if you have your serial port set to anything else, you are getting crud !! and not entropic crud, either [10:42]
mod6: or something [10:42]
asciilifeform: mod6: ~7 is the rated output at room temperature [10:43]
mod6: ALSO, forgot to mention, that openbsd `dd` doesn't have a 'fullblock' iflag or whatever, so that needs to be looked at a bit too [10:43]
asciilifeform: mod6: i investigated , under most unixen it is safe to use 'cat' [10:43]
mod6: asciilifeform: yup. just, openbsd with the config I was talking about yesterday didn't hit that. im sure it's just something on the openbsd side, ie. my configuration. [10:43]
mod6: or how I'm trying to read from the serial [10:43]
asciilifeform: try with 'cat'. [10:44]
mod6: ok, if `cat` won't pad, or do any weird buffer hijinks, then i'll give it a shot. [10:44]
asciilifeform: cat on some exotic unixen drops control chars [10:44]
mod6: i was actually reading through `dd` (openbsd) impl yesterday.. -.- [10:45]
asciilifeform: but ought to work in general today [10:45]
mod6: ok will try later for sure. [10:45]
asciilifeform: however if your system fails to set 115200 baud ( and on every box i have here, it is the default baud rate, HOWEVER you MUST turn off flow control ) [10:45]
asciilifeform: and hah, i think we nailed the problem pete_dushenski had [10:46]
asciilifeform: and possibly mod6 , on bsd [10:46]
asciilifeform: if you don't disable flow control ( in-band idiocy ) the os nukes the terminal whenever it encounters magic char [10:46]
asciilifeform: ( iirc 0x03 ) [10:47]
asciilifeform: and hence it 'burps' [10:47]
asciilifeform: and the output is unusable because now skewed [10:47]
asciilifeform: ( because certain octets no longer appear ) [10:47]
asciilifeform: i encountered this nonsense when i built my very first prototype rng, iirc mircea_popescu even turned the resulting dialogue into a whole post on his www [10:48]
asciilifeform: you gotta kill flowcontrol, folx [10:51]
asciilifeform: as described on snsa www. [10:51]
mod6: thanks asciilifeform [10:52]
deedbot: http://trilema.com/2017/hela-matter/ << Trilema - HeLa Matter! [10:57]
mod6: with OpenBSD, looks like I'll need to try (via http://man.openbsd.org/stty.1) '-crtscts' [11:19]
mod6: to turn off flow control [11:19]
mod6: or am I reading that wrong? [11:19]
* asciilifeform does not know, because his only openbsd box has a couplea cm of dust on it, and also lacks usb ports [11:19]
mod6: ok, np. i'll dig into it later. we'll get to the bottom of it. just some weird config deal. [11:20]
asciilifeform: though it ~does~ have a serial port , on the docking cradle (it's a 'toshiba libretto'), and perhaps i could dust it off [11:20]
asciilifeform: ... or i could let the bsd aficionados take on this chore. [11:20]
mod6: don't bother for now, just stick with whatever else you were doin'. I don't wanna get you off on a side-quest for this. [11:21]
mod6: this issue seems completely unrelated to FG. [11:21]
asciilifeform: FG transmits at 115200,1,noparity, and this is readily verifiable by anyone with an oscilloscope and eyes, or with linux box, or dos box. i will not be taking responsibility for every broken os on the planet. [11:22]
mircea_popescu: lol ok ok/ [11:22]
asciilifeform: but if mod6 comes up with a recipe, i would like to include it in the manual. [11:22]
asciilifeform: there may be other bsd folx , gritting teeth [11:22]
asciilifeform: ty mod6 for putting in the sweat. [11:23]
mod6: no prob! [11:27]

mod6: ya, was thinking that myself. could have been something else weird, but he seemed to update to V99994 and then been able to get past the issue. [11:58]

asciilifeform: in other lulz, http://services.parliament.uk/bills/2016-17/criminalfinances.html >> brits prepare to 're-investigate where the money came from' for all posh properties in london etc and confiscate if 'unclean' [12:05]
asciilifeform: esp that of idiot 'oligarchs' from ru who thought that they could happily live to old age in the enemy's camp [12:06]
asciilifeform: no word so far on what the brits will do when they discover that the 'sticker prices' for the golden toilets are a work of '2 old jews and their painting' fiction , and ~worthless on market [12:07]
mircea_popescu: heh [12:07]
mircea_popescu: i have nfi who in his right mind would buy to live in london. [12:08]
asciilifeform: dunno that they bought-to-live [12:08]
mircea_popescu: i can't think of a worse clime. [12:08]
asciilifeform: but to play the bubble [12:08]
mircea_popescu: well... in that case they long ago sold. [12:08]
* asciilifeform has nfi [12:09]
asciilifeform: last iirc abramovich was still there. [12:09]
mircea_popescu: oh, i'm sure HE's perfectly clean. [12:09]
mircea_popescu: you don't understand how the world works. [12:09]
asciilifeform: rumour has it, usg made 'offer' to various ru exiles those who refused to put coin in the piggy, now 'have problems'. [12:10]
mircea_popescu: there's rather pregnant demand for a country with a constitution specifically forbidding "provenance" verifications. put a pecunia non olet clause, win ~all the remaining capital. [12:10]
mircea_popescu: curious if anyone actually raises up to the challenges of their time. [12:11]
asciilifeform: theoretically, the swiss were this at one time [12:11]
mircea_popescu: and they didn't do too badly with it. [12:11]
asciilifeform: but i suspect there are 'physical limits' involved [12:11]
asciilifeform: gigantic pile of money tears spacetime and creates modern-swiss. [12:12]
mircea_popescu: i don't. i'm satisfied there's just idiocy of the "consensus seeking" nature involved, no more. [12:12]
asciilifeform: expand? [12:12]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the problem with that view being that in bitcoin terms, swiss piles of money were lowest after ww2. [12:12]
mircea_popescu: highest, prolly cca 1770 or such. [12:12]
asciilifeform: being a piece of europe not wrecked at all by the war, was mega-boost [12:13]
asciilifeform: just like it was for the swedes [12:13]
asciilifeform: or usa. [12:13]
mircea_popescu: didn't make that much dsifference, they were small. [12:13]
mircea_popescu: a chocolate watch factory +- dun count for much. [12:13]
asciilifeform: pirate coves also small [12:14]
asciilifeform: but work differently, no need for own industry when you're pirate cove. [12:14]
mircea_popescu: anyway, point being : the relative proportion of wealth stored there actually diminished throughout 19th and 20th centuries. [12:15]
asciilifeform: as for 'pecunia non olet' countries, how about panama. [12:16]
asciilifeform: how's panama doing these days. [12:16]
mircea_popescu: so if it was the pile of wealth that "bent space and time", you'd have had swiss cucks cca 1810, rather than have them provide vatican guards as the respectable manly troop the us marine core tried to copy. [12:16]
mircea_popescu: eh, panama's not a country. [12:16]
asciilifeform: ( maybe just having gold parked , does not do much ? ) [12:16]
mircea_popescu: next coinbase is going to be a bitcoin bank, what are we doing here ? [12:17]
asciilifeform: lol [12:17]
asciilifeform: if contemplating 'who is actual country' based solely on where the yet-untungstenated physical au lives, possibly only cn is now 'country'. [12:18]
mircea_popescu: it actually has a pretty close approximation of the "unreviewable source" principle, too. [12:18]
asciilifeform: (and everybody else is simply screwing around in microshit 'excel'.) [12:18]
asciilifeform: afaik in cn source is verymuch 'reviewable' once d00d falls into Official disgrace with pekin. [12:19]
mircea_popescu: you don't have to take teh govt's money if you dun want to. [12:19]
mircea_popescu: if you do, it'd also be wise to pay up, none of this is particularly controversial. [12:19]
asciilifeform: dunno that all of the publicized 'corruption' trials have this trivial explanation, 'didn't pass the bakshish up the chain' [12:20]
asciilifeform: but i've nfi. [12:20]
mircea_popescu: without exception they're fraud in public funds, afaik. [12:21]
asciilifeform: how many mega-magnates with 0 business with the crown, tho [12:22]
asciilifeform: (if not in their l1 than l2..) [12:23]
asciilifeform: *then [12:23]
asciilifeform: even a soap seller could be portrayed as 'defrauding the crown with inferior soap' etc [12:23]
mircea_popescu: all those theoretical concerns aside, chinese banks routinely handle arbitrary size deposits and their agents are amused at this white man "mony raunderin" thing [12:25]
asciilifeform: q is whether they'll reinvent it when the time comes. like the swiss did, and brits etc [12:27]
asciilifeform: when the external power source dries up [12:27]
mircea_popescu: with this outlook it's a wonder you date. [12:27]
mircea_popescu: why bother, they die anyway, no ? [12:27]
asciilifeform: lol [12:28]
asciilifeform: in point of fact there's plenty of 'normal' things asciilifeform does not do, because he does not expect to live long enough to make use of'em [12:28]
asciilifeform: ( but we digress ) [12:28]
mircea_popescu: anyway, the "time comes" factor is traditionally thouht to deal with "population density", yet the inept west never dealt with pop density even vaguely close to what the chinese are handling ok. [12:30]
mircea_popescu: perhaps a better measure is "hallucinated self-determination", ie uppity twerps pretending like they get to "make choices", something the chinese are very carefully keeping in check. this may continue indefinitely, in which case it might never even come, that time. [12:31]
asciilifeform: density per se isn't interesting, but rather density vs carrying capacity. and iirc europe was pretty 'full', by this metric, in the 18th c [12:31]
asciilifeform: and again in leadup to ww1 [12:31]
mircea_popescu: and china, in 18th c bc. [12:31]
asciilifeform: fixed by exporting excess biomass the 1st time, by shredding with artillery 2nd [12:31]
mircea_popescu: the problem is not really "carrying capacity" in any objective sense, but carrying capacity of pretense, as discussed in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-24#1660840 [12:32]

asciilifeform: 'dreaming' is powered by very real energy source. q is re why does the socket still supply current. [12:34]

asciilifeform: what does a 100kg chick look like after ? does skin hang like sad, empty dirigible ballonet ? [12:44]
asciilifeform: paging BingoBoingo ! [12:44]
asciilifeform: perhaps he knows. [12:44]
mircea_popescu: ah, no. even at mp heights, 100kg female will need extensive surgery to rehumanize. [12:45]
mircea_popescu: not that it's not possible, these days, but how often will it be worth the hassle. [12:45]
asciilifeform: ( on other hand there is some variation in tastes : e.g. it seems to asciilifeform that he likes gurlz with fully 2x the live mass of the ones in mircea_popescu's photos, for instance ) [12:45]
mircea_popescu: which photos ? i'm actually quite variant, there's all sorts. [12:46]
asciilifeform: most of the memorable ones. [12:46]
asciilifeform: but i have nfi what mircea_popescu keeps as 'inpatient' pets. [12:46]
asciilifeform: it is possible that my entire picture is off. [12:47]
mircea_popescu: be that as it may, human female will be fifty something to seventy something or thereabouts. if you like big tits and big asses you'll be at the 70s side of it. 100kgs is really excessive even for adult males. [12:48]
mircea_popescu: the problem with usian chicks isn't necessarily "being the weight of three girls" (mostly cuz i don't expect you'd talk to those), but this unhealthy / inflated aspect due to forced adipose growth for toxin burial. ~that~ sheds, once toxin intake is discontinued, of course. [12:52]

BingoBoingo: ^ Can lift Helo, not out of dependence, but vertically [13:32]
BingoBoingo: Anyways, people are the hardest load to lift. [13:34]
phf: (that's also why aerial work with unprepared people works, until it suddenly doesn't: people get scared, start compensating intellectually, throw the balance out) [13:34]
phf: weights don't self stabilize, so weightlifting is all about proper alignment of force vector (also fighting, running, etc etc) [13:37]

Framedragger: asciilifeform: yeah, taleb had a piece about that "thrown to the dogs" exposure (if that's the word): https://medium.com/incerto/the-skin-of-others-in-your-game-3f51d8ccc3fb - "independent academics" are not at all independent, etc etc (this also creates the "give advice without skin in the game" issue, so on.) [17:50]
Framedragger: (not that this is original at all, just another articulation of same old.) [17:51]
* Framedragger just wondered if one of the functions of "concents" in stephenson's anathem (which i haven't yet read) are to reduce this kind of "but i have two cats and mortgage!" compromise possibility for scientists and the like [17:54]
asciilifeform: Framedragger: entirely [17:55]
* Framedragger makes sure 'tis in reading list [17:56]
asciilifeform: imho idea is approx as realistic as the space ship in same -- but entertaining yarn nevertheless. [17:56]
Framedragger: yeah. [17:56]
asciilifeform: fwiw asciilifeform would sign up without a 2nd thought. [18:12]
asciilifeform: but stephenson carefully specifies!11 that concents live in alt-world where people are slightly less dumb. [18:13]
mircea_popescu: !!up renzo [19:12]
deedbot: renzo voiced for 30 minutes. [19:12]
renzo: Hey, what's !!up? [19:12]
mod6: nada [19:13]
mircea_popescu: gives you the ability to speak. [19:13]
renzo: Ah great [19:13]
renzo: Have to admit i haven't visited your blog since the time of the DAO hack... Mircea, what do you make of this ETH bubble?# [19:13]
mircea_popescu: you know how it goes when you get the flu and ancient cold sores also flare up ? bitcoin climbs, as a result all sorts of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-17#1657609 / bs "feel involved" and relevant and whatnot. [19:15]
a111: Logged on 2017-05-17 22:37 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform did yarvin / urbit EVER do anything other than selling "space" of various description ? it's like reddit by now, wut. [19:15]
mircea_popescu: they aren't, of course, but what's that to do with feelings. [19:15]
mircea_popescu: one day around noon i bought a girl in the street in nantucket by nightfall the respectable housewives all the way down to whitechapel and all the way up past maine had re-evaluated their priceless litter accordingly. [19:17]
renzo: how much for? [19:19]
mircea_popescu: Framedragger asciilifeform you will notice that the perceived problem is very unlikely to be a genuine problem. to use the familiar field of sexuality -- people also don't hit up on girls, and in direct proportion to how hot they are, because they perceive possible harm may come!!1 [19:20]
mircea_popescu: trying to protect people from things they imagine isn't likely to yield results. [19:21]
renzo: can't argue with that, how does one protect someone from something that exists only in their heda [19:22]
renzo: head* [19:22]
mircea_popescu: fwiw, and not so long ago, the ~same "academics" would have hid that they were born black, say, for same vague "fear of reprisals". or, for that matter, gay. what exactly changed, there's no more reprisals nao because what, let me guess, awareness has been risen ? [19:22]
mircea_popescu: there's no fucking reprisals. so some stuck up brits asked some german physicist living with two women to kindly go away. ok, so ? some other people gave him a different-same job. [19:23]
mircea_popescu: for all the blather, the famed "blacklisting" of communists did ~nothing, and so on and so forth. [19:24]
mircea_popescu: but the supposed "fear" merely translates a desire, which is the desire to be not-different from the rest. which... hey, everyone's entitled to be plain, boring, lame an' as ordinary as their wife can stand. [19:25]
mircea_popescu: !!up gabriel_laddel_p [19:53]
deedbot: gabriel_laddel_p voiced for 30 minutes. [19:53]
gabriel_laddel_p: Is anyone aware of "magic" shared libraries that must be included with a linux distro to work? When I build a MasamuneRescueCD fdisk -l does not see any disks, nor does lsblk, in spite of my including all shared libraries required by lddtree --list [20:04]
gabriel_laddel_p: emacs, htop, mc, sbcl all work fine, but X11 & fdisk do not, which sort of screws me. strace works, but tracing the X process does not turn up anything useful [20:05]
trinque: sounds like you didn't pack along the right kernel modules, or otherwise didn't mount dev correctly [20:07]
trinque: afaik linux always mounts /dev automatically these days, so I'd suspect the former. [20:07]
gabriel_laddel_p: Oddly enough, the fdisk binary from https://www.phenix.bnl.gov/~purschke/RescueCD/ works, even though I have a different kernel than it ships with (the masamune one), and different shared libs (masamune ones). [20:08]
gabriel_laddel_p: I would have thought that it was compiled statically, but lddtree turns up deps [20:08]
trinque: pasting an error would be a start missing libs would be a pretty recognizable barf. [20:09]
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: there is no error to paste. Nothing is missing, nothing shows up as missing when I strace it. [20:09]
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: it just doesn't detect anything [20:09]
gabriel_laddel_p: I will double check that all kernel modules are being included, but could have sworn I got em all [20:10]
trinque: dmesg is your friend. [20:12]
trinque: also inspecting /dev for the presence of your block device. [20:12]
trinque: you will see after having loaded the driver for whichever block device, that sdb1 and so on were created. [20:12]
trinque: in dmesg. [20:13]
gabriel_laddel_p: why would I have to load a driver for a block device? and sdb1 and so on and so forth are NOT created, no seen anywhere [20:13]
gabriel_laddel_p: which I suppose credits your /dev/ is not being populated correctly theory [20:13]
trinque: you could certainly turn off the driver which would present your sata drive if you got too uncheck-happy configuring your kernel. [20:14]
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: I'm the very opposite of "uncheck happy", I use the VERY SAME kernel binary being used in [20:15]
gabriel_laddel_p: "userland" [20:15]
gabriel_laddel_p: it isn't minimal in any sense. [20:15]
trinque: dev is mounted, yes? [20:17]
trinque: done by /etc/init.d/devfs [20:17]
trinque: maybe the kernel is mounting /dev in an initrd, but when leaving initrd, nobody's attaching it to the new root. [20:18]
trinque: not looking at the thing in question, so don't know. [20:18]
gabriel_laddel_p: I don't have it in front of me either so idk. Have not touched this project in a ~month or more. That /etc/init.d/devfs exists is news to me, and will try messing with it next [20:20]
trinque: on my gentoo box it is part of the "sysinit" runlevel. [20:20]
trinque: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/drbpq/?raw=true [20:21]
mod6: I haven't gotten openbsd to do quite what I want yet, even with the -crtscts flag set for stty. [21:08]
mod6: Will report if I get it figured out. [21:10]
phf: re fdisk: check that you have /sys mount [21:35]
