18:55 shinohai In today's topkeks: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/07/red-hat-and-centos-systems-arent-booting-due-to-boothole-patches/
19:02 asciilifeform shinohai: see earlier thread.
19:02 snsabot Logged on 2020-07-30 00:35:57 asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: how the hell is this a vuln ? 'secure boot' is elementary fritzchip (i.e. 'secure against owner')
19:04 shinohai bwahaha, so rich
19:13 asciilifeform shinohai: past ~decade had steady 'camel's nose into the tent' progression where microshit agreed to sign a grub bloatware bootloader, w/ the expectation that eventually the latter will be 'improved' to only load rathead-signed kernels etc. tivoization.
19:15 shinohai I wish I had documented my experience getting the HP lappy I bought to even boot Gentoo, required "Microshit signed key" or something to even allow it to boot from USB
19:16 asciilifeform shinohai: most of these can be cured by flashing patched bios. but rarely worth the effort.
19:17 shinohai I bought this one because it was 1) cheap and 2) needed something that at least had HD grafix for games.
19:18 shinohai (Still managed to avoid systemd AND uses alsa)
19:18 asciilifeform lol what games in gentoo, outta curiosity ? 'xpenguin' ?
19:19 shinohai Girls love to play SuperTuxCart and I have libretro working on it, for all teh classics
19:19 asciilifeform a
19:20 shinohai simply added xboxdrv for generic controllers, had long used that when I was playing Eulora
19:22 shinohai We play quake3 and DOOM a lot too
19:22 asciilifeform doom worx a++ under 'dosbox' neh
19:22 asciilifeform no gpu req'd
19:23 asciilifeform meanwhile, 1 moar vpatch w/ errata .
19:24 shinohai Haven't tried with dosbox, is in repos under games-fps/quake3
19:24 asciilifeform shinohai: i was speaking of the classical 1990s doom
19:25 shinohai Ah kk.
19:25 shinohai Though sure classic would run fine under libretro as well
19:26 * asciilifeform not tried 'libretro'. prefers msdosisms nowadays on physical box.
19:27 shinohai I started using it because easy to manage many platforms in one place. Even runs all my odyessey2 ROM dumps.
19:41 asciilifeform meanwhile in vintage misc., nao browsable chronologically.
19:47 shinohai No word from poor gl since 2018, did heart finally explode from overuse of meth?
19:49 asciilifeform shinohai: sank into mariana trench for all i know
19:51 asciilifeform all can see w/ naked eye is that not touched his shithub in yrs. tho may simply mean that he was cured of shithub.
19:53 asciilifeform on that www where he slaved for pennies to order also last seen in '18 apparently.
19:54 asciilifeform RIP.
19:55 shinohai sad masamune might have been great thing
19:55 asciilifeform shinohai: near as i could tell, it was simply a heathen linux + sbcl glued on.
19:56 asciilifeform fella at one pt promised a cltronic 'portage' replacement of some kind, but afaik never showed.
19:57 asciilifeform he admitted to taking dope regularly, and of the kind that exacerbates 'delusion of grandeur', was genuinely convinced that he had 'rebuilt lispm'...
19:57 shinohai Must be whatever mp started using
19:58 asciilifeform shinohai: iirc mp also w/ dope, but insisted 'had quit'
19:59 shinohai I'm not convinced, because up until about mid-2017, had relatively sane guy that suddenly became unrecognizable.
20:01 asciilifeform it aint impossible, in principle, s. freud did, famously, quit.
20:12 shinohai I suppose this ties in with the burden of money thing you had mentioned previously
20:13 asciilifeform shinohai: dunno, g_l apparently managed it w/ ~0 money somehow
20:13 asciilifeform ( how -- remains mystery. but dope aficionados do seem to develop the talent of 'getting' w/ seemingly 0 )
20:13 shinohai I imagine temptation is higher when one actually has resources to buy said substances.
20:14 asciilifeform possibly
20:14 * asciilifeform cannot comment in detail, unfortunately (.. or fortunately)
20:15 asciilifeform it is however my understanding that no dope can cause the eater to develop wholly new character flaws. can only magnify existing ones.
