12:31 trinque (and obviously, ~I do not use the trb wallet~)
12:32 ave1 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793119, with this script http://ave1.org/2018/building-gnat-on-musl-now-with-a-signature/ it is possible to build a cross compiler for aarch64, I will try to use this cross-compiler to then create a native compiler.
12:32 a111 Logged on 2018-04-05 03:17 asciilifeform: but annoying that nobody seems to have ever published one or mentioned the existence.
12:33 asciilifeform ave1: i did one for mips ( never properly tested tho ) a few yrs back
12:33 asciilifeform ave1: the surprising bit is the total absence of any mention of a working gnat for arm64 ( despite it being a quite common chip for several yrs )
12:36 asciilifeform trinque: theoretically 'every private has a marshal's baton in his knapsack', but realistically it is not esp. likely that 'popping trb' had to wait for this 1 d00d to turn 19 or what he was.
12:36 asciilifeform considering the very tangible win from any such thing, going back years
12:36 trinque eh
12:37 trinque we stopped on a perfect copy of openssl did we?
12:37 asciilifeform 'not remotely poppable' != 'perfect'
12:39 asciilifeform fwiw it dun hurt to try. ftr, asciilifeform's orig interest in reading the src, long before even running into mircea_popescu et al , was precisely this.
12:45 asciilifeform !!up diana_coman_away
12:45 deedbot diana_coman_away voiced for 30 minutes.
12:46 diana_coman_away thanks! slowly eating logs here
12:52 ave1 asciilifeform, I can only find gnats for ubuntu/debian and alpine linux. Also GNAT pro seems to support arm64.
12:57 ave1 btw, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-04#1792937, how do you notice something like that?
12:57 a111 Logged on 2018-04-04 19:52 asciilifeform: meanwhile on the chinesium front, asciilifeform was pretty close to throwing out the 'rockchip' this morn., when saw that every few hrs it read-retries the sd flash. but apparently harmless eggog: comes from certain sad levelling firmwares , they cannot keep up with the host
12:58 asciilifeform ave1: it went into /var/log/messages
12:58 asciilifeform or do i misunderstand the q
13:01 asciilifeform ave1: we had just the other day a thread re 'gnat pro'. it's interesting, in principle, but i sure as fucking daylight ain't ever signing nonredistribution oaths for a compiler
13:09 ave1 aha, I was wondering weather you noticed some led blinking, but log would do it
13:09 ave1 yes, me neither
13:12 asciilifeform ave1: nah , no led. log noise. and documented, apparently, issue , with some brands of sd, going back years
13:12 asciilifeform appears to be harmless, the retry-read always succeeds
13:16 asciilifeform at any rate, rockchip pilot-plant boxen will boot from sd and mount usb3 stick for root partition.
13:23 asciilifeform ave1: unrelatedly, iirc you're the one who was lucky winner of 1 phree FG ? didja get it yet ?

14:40 trinque asciilifeform: in general you're probably right, though in general not most are persistent enough to join the republic.
14:40 trinque gotta give the guy worthwhile targets to see
14:40 trinque ftr if the report is "trb's deps are not susceptible to any known RCE" that'd be a fine thing to see written up too
14:40 ben_vulpes today's marvelous self-licking ice-cream-cone: surgeon general suggests that everyone near to folks at risk for overdosing on fentanyl and friends carry naxalone. i for one can't wait to see what the new equilibrium intake rate is without mortality risk looming.
14:41 trinque and obviously that wouldn't be reason to develop a false sense of security either.
14:41 ben_vulpes "audits can only show presence of holes, never the absence" or how did it go
14:41 asciilifeform ^
14:45 trinque rce isn't the only thing that'd be interesting, even cpu bog-down or mem usage DoS would be relevant to staying at the front of the chain.
14:46 asciilifeform it is a little bit funny to talk of bogdown and dos 'vulnerability' in a proggy that happily does o(n) operations at the request of allcomers
14:46 asciilifeform not to mention lets any and all-comers hog sockets for as long as they can come up with fresh ip
14:47 asciilifeform happily does ~by design~
14:48 trinque AIDS patient doesn't ignore fungus because AIDS, but on the contrary
14:48 trinque its also homework.
14:59 asciilifeform unrelatedly, trinque , ever looked into purging sslism from gentoo ? in particular the existence of /etc/ca-certificates.conf and its contents as a ~mandatory package, i find quite irritating
15:01 asciilifeform ( or at the very least, if not purged, every proggy that attempts to lean on usg.pki-ism should generate a log event )
15:01 trinque just gotta mask it and weep, and kiss whatever wanted it goodbye
15:02 * trinque is on a box currently that's musl + libressl, but I don't know that it's much better
15:02 asciilifeform whole pkiism concept is deeply offensive from a republican pov.
15:02 trinque indeed it is
15:03 trinque -ssl hits some, other ebuilds (and this happens more by the day, on various) don't implement the use flag. "what, of course you want that!"
15:04 asciilifeform i can see an argument for retaining an ability to emulate a sslistic client, for http-fetching heathenware when absolutely must . but beyond this -- it Must Die
15:04 * trinque has considered using the portage profile feature for this
15:05 asciilifeform in particular this thought in asciilifeform's head sprung from noticing a CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK='/etc/gentoo-release /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/ca-certificates.conf' in the default environment
15:05 trinque have a fascist profile that ideally becomes the only one, and perhaps another profile that's more lax, used for porting over things or w/e.
15:05 asciilifeform i.e. sslism is treated as 'special' and 'precious' evidently in >1 place
15:05 trinque but, if already saying we'll be curating ebuilds I don't see much of a point of the latter
15:06 asciilifeform ultimately ideal would be fully vtronic replacement for portage.
15:06 trinque and we have to eat all of portage, or we'll be in the position I was in when I handed current cuntoo script to diana_coman
15:06 trinque "oh sorry, outside world moved while we held still. build is now broke as a joke."
15:06 trinque this is the primary item on my workbench atm
15:07 asciilifeform well, not 'all of', but the closure-over-the-set of actually-used things
15:07 trinque "be responsible for everything considered republican portage"
15:07 trinque yes not eat all existing ebuilds
15:07 asciilifeform right
15:07 asciilifeform seems like maybe ~150 packages are in practice needed for a Troo Workstation
15:07 trinque own distfiles server, etc
15:07 trinque aha
15:07 asciilifeform and the number can probably be reduced considerably
15:08 * trinque has a busybox userland-golf experiment on the workbench
15:08 asciilifeform good chunk of the installed packages on typical gentoo box is really liquishit
15:08 trinque though dunno if busybox counts, just giant wad of many utils.
15:08 trinque the appeal there is one upstream dependency vs various
15:09 asciilifeform i find busybox to be useful on ancient routers , pogo , & similar , but quite unusable as a unixutils substitute on actual workstation
15:09 asciilifeform it is not even remotely 100% compatible with classical bash etc
15:10 trinque the embedded constraint would, I'd wager, place a constraint on amount of shitgnomaticism to creep in.
15:11 trinque but probably yes, not compatible strictly with latest bash
15:11 asciilifeform imho the long-term answer is '3rd way' , i.e. all the crud i wrote in bash, python, etc over the years really oughta be in the hypothetical little-lisp-in-ada from old thread.
15:11 asciilifeform ( and at future date then readily transposable to a sane, nonunixoid os )
15:11 trinque busybox default doesn't preclude there being a bash ebuild neh?
15:11 * trinque is taking "smallest possible bootable userland"
15:12 trinque *talking
15:12 asciilifeform sure. but a default that nobody uses in battlefield, is not much to brag about.
15:12 trinque fair point.
15:12 trinque I admittedly *don't* use bash in battlefield, but privately on the workbench
15:12 asciilifeform iirc we even have somebody who lives in ksh.
15:12 asciilifeform ( or maybe i dreamed this. )
15:15 asciilifeform in other lulz, sbcl apparently mildly broken on arm64: builds 100% but then ' can't find core file at /usr/lib/sbcl//sbcl.core '
15:15 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793180 << i guess, yeah. kinda lotta work for little payoff though, more of stand-up comedy fare

15:15 asciilifeform ... unsurprising, because it lives in /usr/lib64
15:16 asciilifeform but the path is HARDCODED IN
15:16 asciilifeform because somebody got dropped as a child, evidently
15:16 asciilifeform and yes i'm aware that it can be fixed by setting an evir variable. but WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO

15:57 asciilifeform for that matter, would also like to measure demand in l1/l2 for these, as a whole
15:58 asciilifeform though will add, unlike shared-hosting service, there is little to no practical barrier to leasing these out to heathens

16:04 mircea_popescu asciilifeform eh, what, walk me throiugh this. let's use lesswrong codex as a basis. so : 1. you are in the hospital for "maybe wanting to kill yourself", after having made ill advised 1970s comments to 2010s paki diversity-"doctor" ; 2. "I remember working with a doctor who wanted to discharge his patient to some kind of outpatient drug rehab. The patient refused to go, so the doctor wouldn’t discharge her, and they were i
16:04 mircea_popescu n a stalemate over it for weeks, and the whole time the patient was tearfully begging the doctor to release her. I cannot tell you how much willpower it took not to sneak into the patient’s room and yell at her “JUST AGREE TO GO TO THE REHAB AND THEN DON’T DO IT, YOU IDIOT”."
16:04 mircea_popescu 3. you... umm... publish it anyway.
16:04 mircea_popescu what now ?
16:07 mircea_popescu we have the perfect mechanism of antipantsuit publishing ; http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-13#1770196 . what's the "color of bits" pantsuit system supposed to do, get trinque to swear in court you sent it to him ?
16:07 a111 Logged on 2018-01-13 16:14 mircea_popescu: and it's for me ; when in doubt you can always check whose key an encrypted item is encrypted to.

16:12 mircea_popescu this is such a direct equivalent of yesterday's ballistic-gellatin wank it's starting to draw out a profile (for what i previously called the wikitard, but i guess lesswrong is just a particularily thick cloud of them) : asocial beta male that has managed to move the conceptual universe of cartoons into "real life" such as they live it.
16:13 mircea_popescu seinfeld's superman comics and cereal eating habits meet the yudkowski "oh, on the basis of the behaviours of the three goats we have back at camp, women like dweebs" and the "lalala i can't hear you, us army bb gun is very efficient when fired at gelatin 5 feet away and the fact that you'll never get that close nor ever have to fight large blobs irl IS NOT IN MY FIELD OF VISION"
16:15 mircea_popescu then they believe (pretend to "think critically", but do no such thing, simply believe) rank nonsense like "global warming" because... THE MODEL!!! the model reminds them of the simplified characters in the manga they loved as children and the general deus-ex-machina atmosphere fits well with their only formative experiences.
16:15 mircea_popescu and so pantsuit science emerges naturally, out of a certain kind of child abuse ; it no longer needs agency for explaining its existence.

16:43 mircea_popescu part of the problem with these mediocre but ambitious shitstains is that they're so repetitive.
16:45 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes the left is actually cognitively incapable of representing tmsr, from my measurements. about as safe as rats in cretacic.
16:46 mircea_popescu asciilifeform think it though though. "obvious" how ? to whom ? where ? why ?etc.
16:47 trinque I came in more or less ideologically amenable, and yet said "oh god, not a bunch of redpillers" and left, the first encounter.
16:47 trinque cultural incomprehensibility is a thing
16:48 trinque minor barfs such as douchebag's might just be the sound of purging, who knows til later

16:49 mircea_popescu "because THEY BELONGED THERE, baby ; and they knew it."
16:50 mircea_popescu "but won't anyone charge ?" "of course some will" "so won't that rally the others ?" "no, very much the opposite -- in making plain the difference between actually being a hero and larping, it'll bring home to the idiots that they REALLY have no business being there."
16:50 mircea_popescu the faster the nutty dozen run for the bayonetts, the faster ^ 3 the pantsuit run for the hills.
16:51 * trinque tries hard to imagine "majority" revolution, fails. herd mechanics always on the other end of the pointy stick.
16:51 mircea_popescu yet that's what the "moderate rebels" are supposedly managing, "majority revolutions".
16:54 ben_vulpes "i mean didja ever read about how the khans army could kill entire cities, and the populations would stand in the fields weeping and waiting their turn?"
16:56 mircea_popescu this is because, you realise, "soldiering wasn't the job THEY HAD CHOSEN FOR THEMSELVES". because "they didn't give a damn about whatever political axe you have to grind, just wanted..."
16:56 mircea_popescu and so following. people with hallucinated options at the ready are ~ballistic gelatin.

20:01 mircea_popescu basically this wikipedian wankster thing seems to be a major-ish neet subculture. evidently under the whole chems thing, or guns, or "baptist"ism / most other first echelon things. but perhaps large enough to make 2nd tier, with post-punk, petaism, and so forth. a sort of mirror-knitting subculture, i guess.
20:02 asciilifeform dunno that 'subculture' is the word. sorta like calling syphilis a subculture
20:02 mircea_popescu syphilis very much was a subculture.
20:03 asciilifeform then this also
20:03 mircea_popescu diseases are in fact the best framework for conceptualizing subcultures -- that's what they are, broken people. broken how is relatively uninteresting.
20:04 mircea_popescu but the girl who genuinely believes her little village is everything and being a dairy maid is the be all (great little novel about this, with nobleman who married dairy maid, ended up making the dutchess a... dairy) is not substantially different from the guy who thinks mercury salts will right him.
20:04 mircea_popescu they both have little rituals associated, consume information cooked a certain way FOR IT BEING THUS COOKED and not for other reasons, and so following.

My wife and I have three children. We have been married for ten years. I came back and Sarah had changed. Didn’t want anything to do with me. This is typical for returning Veterans so I figured it would just take time. Fast forward to now, I just discovered, she has been
20:06 mircea_popescu recruited as a “unicorn” by a Neurologist at a hospital in town. She abandoned me and our middle child who has Autism. She took the youngest and oldest boy and they are considered now Mitch’s children. So, excuse me if I can’t be open minded enough to understand this. I don’t. It hurts incredibly bad and I don’t understand how a doctor, with a wife and six children, could steal my wife and try to take my children."
