'new old stock' obscure sov-era technical lit ) from 'ozon', and often enuff get'em within week, somehow. for next to nuffin.
01:18 dulapbot Logged on 2022-05-29 19:55:30 vex: $50 book, plus shipping and handling, that'll be $230 please sir, expect your book in an unkown number of months and or years
01:18 asciilifeform so geography not excuse.
01:19 vex what do you mean asciilifeform?
01:20 asciilifeform vex: 'ozon' is a mega-booxstore in ru. shipped happily and very quickly to usa for next to nuffin

01:23 asciilifeform http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2022-05-29#1104148 << many yrs ago asciilifeform did time in a salt mine which had a 'meditation room' (we referred to as 'medication room'), had sofas, cacti, not clear why existed

01:28 vex bring from home presumably
01:29 vex hey shinohai forgot his lunchbox again, must be heavy. 2 girls bring it!
01:31 shinohai "These are my meditation assistants!"
01:31 shinohai I guess a true masochist could have shoved the cactus up their ass if all else failed asciilifeform
01:32 asciilifeform wouldn't have been astonished
01:42 vex having your own place to shit is pretty much invaluable
01:42 shinohai http://btc.info.gf/uploads/DILDO.jpg << did the cacti in question look like so ?
01:48 vex pristine porcelein is premium primate perogative
01:51 vex misspelling, swaeting and sqeezing

01:54 vex abi see what you did there
01:56 vex ablutions, ablated, an half arsed attempt
01:58 verisimilitude Similar such sentences show succinctness, silly.
01:58 vex fuck you're good
02:05 verisimilitude Considering current conversations: correct.
02:06 vex it's a pity you chanelled bezos when you forgot the importance of japanese honorifics
02:10 vex can you write a proper haiku in latin?
02:15 vex if it can be about gabriell laddel's life and death, that's be awesome, but I'll accept all subissions
02:15 shinohai verisimilitude cacator (not a haiku but let's throw Latin insults)
02:15 shinohai nn folx o/
02:17 vex sometimes constraints are good
02:19 vex do you know any famous haikus?

08:02 crtdaydreams But I thought it would be interesting to go along, perhaps an opportunity to expand my WoT.

18:50 phf hmm, openbsd's httpd keeps crashing, and i can't find the source of bug
18:50 phf but so much for "small code bespoke software"!
18:51 asciilifeform phf: not familiar with subj, but how 'small' ?
18:51 * asciilifeform from cursory look into openbsdism remembers concluding 'same c liquishit hairball as errywhere else'
18:53 * asciilifeform got nowhere near as far as phf with practical use of openbsd, barfed rather early in the process
18:53 dulapbot (trilema) 2017-01-13 asciilifeform: i soured almost totally on openbsd when i labouriously set up a box, with all of the proggies i rely on for daily use, and found that emacs COULD NOT be de-poetteringized without eschewing the ports system entirely
19:00 phf everything's a compromise. i've hacked on linux kernel in the early 2000s when i didn't know anything from anything (i had major patches against orinoco wifi driver, mac ppc), but i wouldn't attempt that now. openbsd's kernel is still "hacked by frens" with no bigco pajeet branches. i quite like that. but lack of flavors in ports is annoying, considering that they functionality is there
19:02 phf most bsd tools are smaller compared to their gnu counterparts (i'd say on average 1/3 of all possible flags), and openbsd did a handful of tool rewrites and integrations that i quite like, even if some of them verge on the border of "modern!1"
19:05 phf e.g. one of my favorites is that "wpa_supplicant" is part of ifconfig, i.e. `ifconfig nwid foo wpakey bar up`. it's small feature, but it's kind of obvious
19:09 phf i quite like that openbsd (and that comes from freebsd) preserved oss, and extended it in a sensible way to support the various features that were used as excuse to do the original poetterism, pulseaudio. openbsd still has /dev/sound to which you can cat a sun au and get audio. or you configure its byte/sample/etc size and stream something else
19:11 phf tbh i don't think it'll last, i've migrated to openbsd from freebsd which imho went to shit
19:15 phf (i'll let you know re size of httpd in a second, out in the deplorables land have been having electric issue, because of a recent storm. electric been going in and out, so i decided fuck it, brought all ups, systems down, waiting for openbsd to check out to the laptop i'm on)
19:22 phf obhttpd 7k c, 2k yacc, 1k header loc
19:23 phf compared with lighttpd 77k c 30k bash 12k header 11k m4 ...
19:24 phf smallest practical c httpd daemon i have is althttp.c which is 2k c loc, that's from sqlite guy
19:30 phf and to clarify obhttpd is enough to run mpwp, including the named redirects
19:30 phf e.g. http://barksinthewind.com/2018/coppa-airlines-baggage/
19:31 signpost yeah, that's what I'm running on deedbot.org too
19:31 signpost same box as my blog
19:32 asciilifeform phf: interesting. sorta like 'linux from 10y ago' at any given time
19:32 * signpost doesn't expect to get an urge for minimalism satisfied by anything that can do useful work as a server, but openbsd does at least usually work out of the box with minimal wtf
19:32 * asciilifeform can see why one might want to revive bsd
19:33 signpost ran business servers on the thing too, zero complaints.
19:38 * asciilifeform has 1 remaining openbsd box -- toshiba 'libretto'. was the 1 and only thing could get reasonably runnable on it, as support for truly ancient irons evaporated from linux long ago
19:39 phf i too have openbsd running on a libretto. in fact when i got trb working on openbsd in 2016 or so, immediately attempted to run the executable on libretto, and realized that unlike linux, openbsd doesn't have stable abi. trb booted, but then choked somewhere in threading code
19:41 verisimilitude OpenBSD's only obstinate, obviously.
19:43 verisimilitude Offhandedly, OpenBSD's obstinate or obnoxious.
19:45 verisimilitude Anyway, all attempts at alteration are agonizing.

21:12 asciilifeform http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2022-05-30#1104281 << fwiw asciilifeform as recently as '18 was patching 'for own kitchen' ( baked a kernel compat. with 'M' , iirc to this day not published patch from lack of detectable interest , tho the bootable image is there in the 1st article ) , did not take over9000 elbow grease
21:12 dulapbot Logged on 2022-05-30 14:58:11 phf: everything's a compromise. i've hacked on linux kernel in the early 2000s when i didn't know anything from anything (i had major patches against orinoco wifi driver, mac ppc), but i wouldn't attempt that now. openbsd's kernel is still "hacked by frens" with no bigco pajeet branches. i quite like that. but lack of flavors in ports is annoying, considering that they functionality is there
21:13 asciilifeform ( took 1 of the off-the-shelf mips kernel 'machine' sets, put in routines for the basic 'devices' in 'm' )
21:14 asciilifeform err, '19
21:15 asciilifeform arguably this is why over9000 obscure irons supported by linuxkernel -- because not in fact difficult to glom'em on
21:27 phf asciilifeform: this could also be the case of "the fuck is this faggot ass shit" which is usually followed 1-2 hours later by "oh hmm well maybe maybe, i get it, it's shit but i get it" followed by another two hours of "well, i don't know if it can be done any other way really"
21:27 phf i just haven't bothered to put those first two hours with recent linux kernel yet
21:28 asciilifeform phf: entirely. and there's rarely any reason to do it (how often one bakes de novo irons, or even excavates an ancient one for which 0 existing module, that even needs one)
21:28 phf by the time i was tmsr i was already running mac os for like a decade
21:28 asciilifeform iirc at one pt someone ( bvt ? ) was trying to wire fg into kernel
21:29 phf ironically switched to mac os because "if poeterring might as well something that just works", now at a point where mac os doesn't just work anymore
21:29 asciilifeform aha!
21:30 * asciilifeform still has a crapple in the rack, moar or less reserved for 'toilet' chores -- runs printers, scanners, the occasional misc. piece of shit periph
21:30 asciilifeform video conferencing bullshit, etc
21:31 asciilifeform can't wait to throw that thing out -- it bloats like botulismic tinned can ~erryyr like fucking clockwork, 'needs new battery' despite ~never running off the battery
21:32 asciilifeform ( but won't boot w/out one , either, Because Reasons (tm) )
21:33 * asciilifeform recalls decade+ ago thinking similarly to phf's , 'hey almost a commercial unix', 'iron justworx(tm) but can open a bash , unlike winblowz box' etc
21:34 asciilifeform but at this pt moar or less exactly same 'feel' as a microshit box, except with even moar flaky iron
21:36 * asciilifeform recalls travails of folx trying to get fg going under crapple. where, apparently, can't switch off flow control from serial port (or, at any rate, no one found precisely how)
21:37 asciilifeform iirc thing ate 'stty' w/ the correct args, then proceeded to... do nuffin
21:37 asciilifeform (quite typical behaviour of crapple's os when asked to 'behave unixfully' in some corner case)
21:39 asciilifeform ( ftr -- with flow control 'on', one gets spurious control chars in yer random soup, catastrophically blowing the uniformity of the output )
21:39 asciilifeform ( or, to be pedantic -- they get ~omitted~ from the set of possible bytes outputted, as they get interpreted )
21:40 asciilifeform ( see also re crapple victims )
21:40 dulapbot Logged on 2021-08-31 13:41:55 asciilifeform: pete_rizzo_: consider a lulzy pete_d incident: in '17, he buys a FG, but unable to get it going, largely because he had purchased it simply as 'in-group signal' i suspect. in '19 [http://www.contravex.com/2019/03/30/the-21st-century-emergency-kit-fg-inside/][turned his unit into a 'modern art' install

21:55 asciilifeform verisimilitude: unappealing, undead unoperatingsystem; unremarkable
21:55 verisimilitude Unsurprisingly.
~ 1 hours ~
22:56 phf verisimilitude is of course posting his deep insights from an apl machine, get the fuck out here.
22:56 asciilifeform lol
23:06 phf there's of course a periodic thread on subj http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2015-02-06#1010387 http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2015-02-06#1010388
23:06 dulapbot (trilema) 2015-02-06 asciilifeform: 'Violent criminals often use an expression auxiliary to “My head went” when explaining their deeds: “It wasn’t me.” Here is the psychobabble of the slums, the doctrine of the “Real Me” as refracted through the lens of urban degradation. The Real Me has nothing to do with the phenomenal me, the me that snatches old ladies’ bags, breaks into other people’s houses, beats up my wife and children, or repeatedly
23:06 dulapbot (trilema) 2015-02-06 asciilifeform: inks too much and gets involved in brawls. No, the Real Me is an immaculate conception, untouched by human conduct: it is that unassailable core of virtue that enables me to retain my self-respect whatever I do. What I am is not at all determined by what I do; and insofar as what I do has any moral significance at all, it is up to others to ensure that the phenomenal me acts in accordance with the Real Me.'
23:08 phf :q
23:09 verisimilitude It's irrelevant, isn't it?
23:10 phf err, asciilifeform is there a way to search your logs by an uinterupted sequence of characters, e.g. btcbase lets you search "real me" (though at also greps lots of `real men`), but on logs it seems to do something odd
23:14 phf verisimilitude: no, there's of course a point, but like with the proverbial flies in eyes, can't see they are there cause they are there
23:19 verisimilitude Enlighten everyone, emissary.
