14:49 asciilifeform whaack: at this pt all the samsungs in asciilifeform's torture room are '270' series. they seem to have similar wear characteristics, but very slightly faster i/o
14:51 asciilifeform whaack: avoid 'qvo' lineup tho, those are the 'starvation' variant which burn ~2x as fast
14:52 asciilifeform re: vendors other than samsung -- have 1 machine w/ a toshiba, circa '17, still alive (tho very light on writes on acct of what runs there; yer mileage may vary)
14:55 asciilifeform the dc dulaps all run on 860s; to date none have needed replacement.
14:58 asciilifeform asciilifeform's dc trb noad, an 'apu1', also on 860 (the 'm2' compact variant), ~2.5y of service, disk aint dead yet.

15:54 scoopbot New article on billymg: Running MP-WP on a Modern Musl-Based Gentoo
~ 43 minutes ~
16:37 billymg ^ i had the bulk of that article sitting around for almost two weeks, been busy with irl projects (completely rewired the entire property, all new cables, conduits, breakers. also now split into 5 meters, up from the previous 2, which, based on how they meter here, should save about 30% on the monthly bill)
16:38 billymg whaack: for an external ssd just take the same samsung 870 and put it in an external enclosure
16:38 billymg they're usually like $20 or so on amazon
16:44 billymg re: the totally-not-an-inside-fed-job bitfinex hack, i saw somewhere that they're not even going to charge them with the actual theft (because obviously wouldn't want that to be under any form of scrutiny), only the money laundering and "conspiracy to defraud the usg"
16:58 asciilifeform billymg: unsurprise, lol. there's exactly 1 'authorized thief' in the reich.
~ 51 minutes ~
17:49 whaack lol i bet if they're going to do any payout to the bagholders it will be USD at the price of the coin when it was stolen
17:49 asciilifeform a la mtgox aha
17:50 whaack asciilifeform: i thought the mtgox people got a flat 0
17:51 asciilifeform some handful supposedly 'paid'
17:51 billymg i think most of it was already paid back, back in 2016
17:51 billymg not in btc of course, in some other token bitfinex created for the purpose
17:51 billymg i.e. "here's a stack of chips on the house, don't forget to tip your dealre"
17:52 billymg dealer*
17:52 PeterL billymg: in the "PHP 5.6 and Apache 2.4" section, s/enale/enable
17:52 billymg PeterL: ty, fixed
17:56 billymg i'm amused at the irony of the USG charging these two with "money laundering" when in fact it was the feds that stole it, and are now, six years, later laundering it themselves through the this fake "bust"
17:56 billymg "six years later,"*
17:57 asciilifeform sop.
17:57 billymg yup
18:06 billymg ah, apparently even with their casino chips only refunded 36% of the loss: https://coinidol.com/bitfinex-reimburses-hacked-customers-in-full/
18:06 billymg my guess is along with some agreement that if you cash in your 36% chips you sign away any later claims to compensation for your loss
18:12 mats iirc the mtgox claims are denominated in btc and have been on the verge of resolution for months
18:16 mats some percentage of those coins will definitely flow into exchanges as people get their coins back and go into fiat or diversify into alts https://blog.wizsec.jp/2021/02/mtgox-claim-calculator.html
18:17 mats “The trustee also reserved a buffer of what bankruptcy creditors would have received for their crypto claims (50,058.12 JPY per BTC) by selling a portion of MtGox's remaining bitcoins in order to guard against a possible future drop in market value. The estate currently holds 141,686 BTC and 142,846 BCH, plus about 68 billion JPY worth of fiat.”
18:19 mats it’s weird to call the bitfinex hack an inside fed job, I haven’t read any evidence of it being either an inside job or fed involvement
18:24 asciilifeform mats: our null hypotheses differ.
18:24 dulapbot Logged on 2022-02-08 13:53:38 asciilifeform: i.e. usg's indictments have approx. same relationship to fact as freisler's.
18:25 mats it should cause a nice dip when mtgox claimants get paid and they sell some percentage to exchanges for fiat and diversification into alts
18:26 mats supply has been very tight and that will probably continue into the future
18:26 asciilifeform esp. the 'claimants' who are actually reich sockpuppets.
18:29 mats I don’t see how anyone benefits from trying to dump coins via waterfall in the current day
18:29 asciilifeform mats: srsly? don't see why reich absolutely must prevent runaway 'moon' ?
18:30 mats You might wipe out a bunch of leveraged positions but there’s no assurance you’ll end up with more fiat or btc at end of play
18:30 asciilifeform the folx printing printolade aint out to 'end up with moar fiat or btc'
18:30 mats You might ensure some other participants end up with bags of your money though
18:31 mats Who will probably put it back into bitcoins
18:35 mats It might cause more volatility but naively it’s hard for me to come to the conclusion it all nets out to suppression of the price
18:36 mats People with low time preference and no margin come out ahead

19:15 billymg http://logs.bitdash.io/asciilifeform/2022-02-11#1078750 lol, where would you expect to read about it? cnn?

20:12 asciilifeform ACHTUNG, panzers: 'The V Public License.'
20:12 asciilifeform verisimilitude ^
20:14 asciilifeform q's/comments invited.
20:15 scoopbot New article on Loper OS: The V Public License.
20:15 asciilifeform ah lol there it is
20:16 PeterL hmm, scoopbot gone again?
20:16 asciilifeform mno,falsealarm
20:24 PeterL asciilifeform: "rather than one of the many vile agglomerations of faecal droppings from anonymous vermin typically met with in public digital cesspools." << this phrase does not seem to keep the same academic, fact-based tone as the rest of the document?
20:25 asciilifeform PeterL: intentional.
20:26 PeterL nice concise explanation of what v is
20:26 asciilifeform PeterL et al feel free to come up w/ own variant, asciilifeform aint attempting to be 'god emperor' or to force anyone to use subj. as given.
20:28 asciilifeform + IANAL. anybody deluded enuff to contemplate attempting enforcement of this or any other 'software license', in whatever shithole, will have to fork over own dough and get it massaged.
~ 28 minutes ~
20:57 whaack asciilifeform: ah ok, i spent a couple mins scratching my head looking for the 270 series
~ 22 minutes ~
21:19 asciilifeform whaack: my apologies. 870.
~ 1 hours 53 minutes ~
23:13 thimbronion asciilifeform: consider calling it the GFY license
23:27 asciilifeform thimbronion: wassat?
23:27 thimbronion asciilifeform: https://www.cyberdefinitions.com/definitions/GFY.html
23:28 asciilifeform thimbronion: that'd be moar appropriate re: the old one, neh
23:30 thimbronion asciilifeform: not seeing a link to the old one there
23:30 asciilifeform link
23:31 asciilifeform the 1 devised by mp
23:32 thimbronion asciilifeform: definitely an appropriate title in that case
23:33 asciilifeform thimbronion: 'VPL' aint a variant of subj. i rec to read the article, it aint long.
23:36 thimbronion asciilifeform: I read. Still seems like a troll.
23:37 asciilifeform thimbronion: can't resist to ask wai
23:37 asciilifeform imho no moar of a trolol than e.g. gpl.
23:39 * asciilifeform intends to 'relicense' e.g. ffa under 'vpl' upon next vpatch to same.
23:39 thimbronion asciilifeform: I guess because legally minded folks might take it seriously
23:40 asciilifeform even better.
23:40 asciilifeform is entirely intended to be taken seriously. while same people who pissed on the earlier mpistic 1 will of course piss equally.
23:41 asciilifeform the linked txt factually reflects what e.g. asciilifeform wishes people to do with his softs.
23:42 asciilifeform and quite deliberately prohibits e.g. throwing onto shithub and similar idiocy.
23:43 asciilifeform ( a hypothetical shithub which only accepts signed commits and spits'em out on demand as a vtree would be kosher per vpl. afaik dun exist tho )
23:46 asciilifeform vpl is erry bit a serious reaction to the idiocy of gpl as the latter was to microshit's.
23:47 asciilifeform asciilifeform is wholly uninterested in being a contributor to the fungal mass of open sores as exemplified by gpl et al.
23:49 asciilifeform 100% willing to collaborate with human beings, rather than fungi, and these asciilifeform defines principally by a willingness to uphold the cause of the human against the fungal; and not the least important aspect of this is vtronic publication.
23:57 thimbronion Should I publish a genesis of the version of python I'm using for blatta?
23:58 asciilifeform thimbronion: iirc signpost is working on this
23:58 asciilifeform thimbronion: if yer asking whether this is demanded by 'vpl' -- it aint, if you read carefully
23:58 thimbronion asciilifeform: wasn't wrt to the license
23:58 asciilifeform a
23:59 asciilifeform but yes, at some pt ideally we'll have a vtree of literally errything one might care to stuff into a newly-powered box.
23:59 thimbronion 2.7 is already "unsupported"
23:59 asciilifeform indeed
