09:33 mircea_popescu lol ?!
09:33 solrodar they weren't immediately better, and they took like 20 times as long to run, so I didn't feel like trying to explore their parameters
09:33 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the only reasonable hypothesis i can think of is that he accidentally posted and it got lifted
09:33 mircea_popescu or that he doesn't actually write these.
09:34 asciilifeform or ever did?
09:34 asciilifeform (style is consistent since '07)
09:34 mircea_popescu this is a common (if not the most common) issue/complaint in the "professional" publication field.
09:34 mircea_popescu ie, send three newspaper an "Article" to write about your product. send them the same one.
09:34 mircea_popescu asciilifeform usg style is also consistent over long periods, so much so that it makes gavin read like reddit etc.
09:36 mircea_popescu this would imply zerohedge is a sort of dry run for rt, which i guess is as decent a tinpot theory as any other.
09:50 asciilifeform the thing is, his statement is not entirely unlike 'i woke up and my furniture was gone'

12:50 mod6 you probably did.
12:50 shinohai I agree with ascii_field tho. Ubuntu is the retarded cousin of Debian
12:50 ascii_field i will say again - don't run build script as root
12:50 ascii_field nothing useful can come of it
12:51 ascii_field if you find yourself doing this, your system is broken !

12:56 ascii_field mod6: you have crud owned by root in there
12:56 shinohai after that I commented out the boost line and re-ran
12:56 mod6 ok will try a few things
12:58 mod6 alright, chowned the entire thing -R mod6:mod6, building again.

13:05 ascii_field i don't get it.
13:06 ascii_field ;;later tell mircea_popescu https://cryptome.org/2015/07/gawker-fires-arkin.htm (and cached article in question, https://cryptome.org/2015/07/gawker-geithner.pdf )

13:06 assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1LOxLyb )
13:07 mod6 ascii_field: im doing this because ive put stator.sh into the test bundle, and I wanna ensure that it works on gentoo/deb6/unbuntu before i notify people on the ML.
13:07 shinohai Hmm ... i got the same error, so I manually downloaded boost because I had a .tar.gz in that folder instead of boost.tar.bz2
13:08 mod6 but i have bz2!
13:08 shinohai O.o
13:08 ascii_field mod6: how broken does ubuntu need to prove itself before it is reasonable to declare it unsupported crock of shit - in the same toilet as winblowz ?
13:08 mod6 this is a fair question, i don't like it any better than you do. im just trying to figure out if im retarded.
13:09 mod6 i could be doing something wildly retarded, i just don't know what it /is/ yet :]
13:10 shinohai I dunno, I doubt you are "retarded" but building it separate solved all my issues every build I have done so far
13:10 shinohai Besides pogo, which I can't get to work at all
13:11 mod6 yeah, we need to be able to build the whole thing in one button push really. so doing it separate is fine for individuals who know what they're doing, but not good enough for release.
13:12 mod6 this does build fine (my TEST1 bundle with 'stator.sh' as non-root) on gentoo
13:12 mod6 as the same with genuine 'stator' archive
13:12 mod6 !up ascii_field
13:13 mod6 so this could just be ubuntu releated.
13:13 mod6 *related
13:13 shinohai Same thing happened to me on Debian tho :/
13:13 mod6 seems to me, that i hit this once right when I first tried this package -- but the problem was then (over a month ago), i was dl'ing the .tar.gz of boost, not .tar.bz2, and i've corrected that
13:14 * shinohai fires up ssh, and tries another Ubuntu build
13:14 mod6 i'll try deb6 again here this afternoon too.

15:18 BingoBoingo Dice girl's nick was pikachujdc or something like that.
15:19 mircea_popescu ascii_field this theoretical "so and so will happen" is nice and good, but also is useless in this discussion. following hanbot's mega-explosive "hey, this shit dun work on the most commonly seen linux out there" has been enlightening.
15:19 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo "thepiachu" iirc.
15:19 BingoBoingo Ah
15:19 ascii_field mircea_popescu: not so theoretical. we just had another fella successfully 'buildroot' moments ago.
15:20 ascii_field realize, thing is mostly cpu-agnostic
15:20 mircea_popescu still moot.
15:20 mircea_popescu ie, it's the assembly line for phds all over again.
15:20 ascii_field mno
15:20 ascii_field it is the only way to get deterministic gcc
15:20 ascii_field and thus have all the builders end up with actual same binary
15:21 ascii_field for given src
15:21 shinohai now if I can only figure out what to do next
15:21 ascii_field shinohai: play with it. change the arch to x86 and see if you can run the resulting elf
15:21 ascii_field on your pc
15:22 mircea_popescu we're talking at cross purposes.
15:22 mircea_popescu step out of that context for a second and understand that if the thing doesn't build,. the thing doesn't build.
15:22 mircea_popescu same reason gentoo can go shit in its own mouth as far as im concerned.
15:22 shinohai xD
15:22 ascii_field mircea_popescu: buildroot is precisely the antidote to 'gentooism'
15:22 mircea_popescu but do we have a recipe to give hanbot ?
15:22 ascii_field in that it builds a gcc, and full binutils toolchain, which ~then~ can build, e.g., bitcoind
15:23 mircea_popescu yes yes. do we have the exact equivalent of http://www.eulorum.org/Ubuntu
15:23 assbot Ubuntu - Eulorum ... ( http://bit.ly/1D6vTgQ )
15:23 mircea_popescu and i DO mean all the way to EXACTLY "Create a directory (mkdir dev). Navigate to it (cd dev)"
15:24 shinohai Ubuntu is just the linux version of Winblowze Vista
15:24 mircea_popescu with the paranthesis, included, verbatim, everywhere, no exceptions.
15:24 ascii_field there is http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-March/000074.html << which gets you to buildroot
15:24 assbot [BTC-dev] Presenting... Build your own Pogotron. ... ( http://bit.ly/1LLJdca )
15:24 mircea_popescu besides the point.
15:24 shinohai I am convinced
15:24 mircea_popescu ascii_field we don't have that, we don't have anything in this perspective.
15:24 ascii_field but overall mircea_popescu is right, there is not yet a cookbook
15:24 mircea_popescu understand : in the strictest sense, it must be IDENTICAL.
15:24 mircea_popescu as much as a single missing "navigate to foo (cd /foo)" means 100% failure.
15:25 * ascii_field reads eulorum link, sees what mircea_popescu meant
15:25 mircea_popescu aha.
15:25 mircea_popescu now, obviously that it can be done at all is huge, and yes, all that is very important
15:25 mircea_popescu but there's a prototype and there's a mass production in all things.

16:07 BingoBoingo So I will be shuttling $200 to the drive through lawyer to argue the hearing on motions in Septembet (why he neglected to mention this before I have no idea).
16:08 BingoBoingo By yes. One of the big wigs at the prosecution's office apparently stooped to negotiating over a misdemeanor.

16:10 mod6 I was able to build on deb6/gentoo nomultilib glibc/and ubuntu 14.04 just fine. On ubuntu, my problem was missing realpath. DEERP.
16:10 mod6 !up ascii_field
16:10 shinohai O fuck mod6 I forgot all abt realpath
16:11 mod6 yup, i thought it was already on there. I just never bothered to check until I tried to execute the script commands by hand and it turned up "not found". then the "ah ha!" moment.
16:12 shinohai Glad you got it though.
16:12 mod6 yeah, thanks.
16:14 mod6 my plan for tonight is to put out the bitcoin-v0_5_4-TEST1.tar.gz bundle to the ML tonight if possible. This is a pre-patched tarball of all of ascii's patches (and one of my fixes) up through verifyall. Should work only on x86-64 deb6/ubuntu 14.04/gentoo nomultilib glibc - if anyone wants to help test.
16:14 mod6 Beyond that, I need to write upt the SoBA for this month.
16:15 mod6 And then next month, if no one else volunteers to create the "cookbook". I'll spend all of August building that. I'll start with a guide for deb6 & ubuntu on x86-64 and i386.
16:16 mod6 (for v0.5.3.1)
16:17 mod6 then obviously it'll need further instructions in the cookbook for whenever we put out v0.5.4, etc.
16:17 ascii_field mod6: i may or may not have a nice surprise for you this week
16:17 mod6 yikes.
16:19 shinohai I'll help test as always mod6, in between this pogo crash-course I am doing
16:21 mod6 ascii_field: what's the problem now?
16:22 ascii_field no problem

19:49 pete_dushenski gernika neat. though a dumbphone too dumb to text "be there in 10" is too dumb for me.
19:49 williamdunne pete_dushenski Yes, I planned enough ahead to have ingredients in, but not enough to sort the teriyaki beforehand. Probably try it again in a couple of weeks
19:49 pete_dushenski thus, black razr is the sweet spot.
19:50 mats yes am bringing back the RAZR
19:50 pete_dushenski williamdunne well, you can always blog about it !
19:50 mats old school cool
19:50 gernika pete_dushenski I ended up getting a samsung gusto - texts well enough.

19:51 gernika I do miss my old razr.

20:00 phf re: feature phones, i used this one for a bit http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-GT-E1182L-Unlocked-Quad-Band-Organizer/dp/B007F9XJDY, main perk that it supports u.s. and international freq. downside that i discovered with phones like that is that sounds quality is shit, compared with iphone+apple-earbuds

20:08 trinque that one looks like maybe there's a cd further up causing it
20:08 phf well, that's the conversation about real computers. i wouldn't mind paying those same $800 for a phone that's not "diddle by usg", has excellent sound quality and can send sms with a full keyboard. such phone is not to be had though
20:08 trinque yep
20:08 ben_vulpes i dun mind the phones. voice travels in plaintext of necessity.
20:08 mod6 hmm, so after that, i commented out the configure/build parts for openssl/bdb/boost from rotor.sh and re-ran rotor.sh, and it started to compile... failed. couldn't find the BDB stuff.
20:09 mod6 but what was strange is that none of the bdb libs were copied into ourlibs

22:33 phf punkman: samovar has a source of heat builtin. traditional models will have a tube in the center, that's used to burn wood like http://magazin-samovarov.ru/upload/medialibrary/3e9/%20golxwmp%207.JPG
22:33 assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1D41FeJ )
22:33 phf modern ones are electric, essentially electric kettles with a spigot
22:34 phf of course you can't cook coffee with a samovar, nor make tea with ibrik, so it's apples and oranges anyway
22:35 punkman I can make tea with it. also eggs.
22:36 phf i assume a teabag is somehow involved..
22:38 phf actually i'm hating for no good reason, i know that in africa they cook tea in ibrik, but i've not had much practice with it. know they also use a lot of sugar and mint
22:38 punkman traditionally you just throw tea or herbs in while it's still boiling

22:41 trinque lost on most is the value of being yelled at by a learned person.
22:41 asciilifeform (from the standpoint of everybody who isn't us here)
22:41 phf punkman: i work with iranians, and they, like russians, cook a tea concentrate in a teapot and then you dilute it from a kettle before serving. i used to use tea strainer but i switched back to russian method. this way i can drink tea for hours on end :> samovar is best in that case because it provides a constant supply of warm water
22:42 punkman phf, samovars are definitely spiffy
22:42 trinque in other words, if theo holds back scraping barnacles at all, he's doing them a disservice as well as himself.
22:42 trinque or wtf is education?
22:44 asciilifeform the barnacles are not, for any practical purposes of ours, people.

22:53 asciilifeform the next step will be to turn 'rotor' into a buildroot package properly speaking (like all the various packages that come with buildroot)
22:53 asciilifeform this way it will magically get onto any buildroot-linux that is built (e.g., pogo)
22:54 asciilifeform conceivably the three deps ought to be a package each

22:56 trinque though if it's a matter of my strange I'll worry about it then let the rest know the fix if I find it
22:58 decimation yeah nearly all modern smartphones still use the 'at commmands' to control the 'baseband' cpu to my knowledge
22:58 asciilifeform so why bother with the 'phone that won't let'
22:58 asciilifeform just buy the modem
22:58 asciilifeform ten bux or so.
22:59 mats I imagine that the author spends a lot of time tooling around in cyanogenmod
23:00 asciilifeform mats: this explains nothing
23:00 asciilifeform article is about 'here is a cool trick, but google's phones won't let you access the modem, buy an old phone'
23:00 decimation if your building the root fs on your phone, gotta talk with the actual radio somehow
23:00 asciilifeform why did he not say 'buy modem'
23:00 asciilifeform buy the modem, and you are ~guaranteed~ to get to talk to the modem
23:01 asciilifeform and usually the various knobs of the radio, if you can read cn or ru and have patience to find datasheet
23:01 decimation actually I suggest a much better idea: reverse the baseband cpu and software
23:01 asciilifeform (if you can't read cn or ru, and have no phriends who can, you have sadly no business in electrowankery)
23:01 asciilifeform decimation: you can get, iirc, a full gsm stack for extant sdr boards
23:01 asciilifeform why reverse.
23:02 decimation because of the interesting nooks and crannies one might find
23:02 decimation for phun and prophit
23:02 asciilifeform sure
23:02 asciilifeform but original link concerned a trick using standard gsm protocol
23:02 decimation but yeah, if you want to listen to gsm, buy an sdr rx

23:07 asciilifeform mats: how's that work? detects any tower seen at ground level?
23:08 asciilifeform or, one that is too 'loud' ? or in motion ?
23:08 asciilifeform (or - more likely - are 'catchers' laughably poor stand-ins for traditional tower?)
23:08 decimation asciilifeform: I think the latter is the usual method
23:08 mats detects things like downgrade attacks or anomalous tower behavior
23:09 asciilifeform i don't get why they would necessarily have to exhibit anomalous behaviour
23:09 mats encryption to none such from a tower
23:09 asciilifeform what's to keep the enemy from simply walking around with a proper commercial tower business end
23:09 asciilifeform and why does anyone give a fuck re: gsm encryption? it uses a toy 1980s algo
23:09 mats LAC change, for instance
23:09 decimation A5/1?
23:10 asciilifeform aha
23:10 asciilifeform openly mandated by nsa, no less
23:11 decimation somehow nobody gives a fuck
23:11 trinque who would, the consumers?
23:11 trinque they're well conditioned to chuckle about "govt sees my dick pics"
23:12 asciilifeform my current understanding is that 'imsi catcher' is an artifact specifically of the bureaucratic side of usg. intercept at the tower, where the bits hit a land line, is trivial and no one has to leave his chair - but the paperwork is annoying. hence squaddie and 'catcher'
23:13 asciilifeform and then parallel construct, 'never happened', 'anonymous stoolie told us where the cocain was buried'
23:13 decimation asciilifeform: plus you can buy one openly on the market
23:13 asciilifeform build yourself
23:13 asciilifeform from, e.g., verizon's 'femtocell'
23:13 asciilifeform all the hardware is helpfully included.
23:13 decimation squaddie's boss buys on market

23:13 assbot Logged on 28-07-2015 00:02:50; pete_dushenski: the iphone does have spectacular call quality. then again, it's $800
23:13 decimation or do you think they go hat in hand before the feds?
23:13 asciilifeform all modern cell phones have abominable sound quality
23:14 asciilifeform for entirely elementary reason
23:14 decimation actually I think the iphone will establish a 'facetime' connection over the internet in certain situations
23:14 decimation which has better compression/higher bandwidth
23:14 asciilifeform if wifi, and if both sides select it
23:14 asciilifeform never, afaik, default
23:14 decimation yeah
23:14 asciilifeform hence worthless
23:14 asciilifeform and then you walk off your yard and wifi cuts, and lose call.
23:15 decimation aye
23:15 asciilifeform lacks, what phone folks call 'hand-off'
23:15 decimation yes, it's a noticable failure of the wifi protocol
23:15 mats can't face time over data network?
23:15 asciilifeform not iirc
23:16 decimation yeah I think so
23:16 asciilifeform plus there are still retarded carriers ('verizon') where data modem is shut down if voice call is going, until it hangs up
23:17 asciilifeform (yes, they don't transmit voice as ip packets! believe!)
23:17 decimation actually transmitting voice as ip sounds retarded
23:18 asciilifeform why have two modems ?
23:18 decimation I doubt there are two physical modems
23:18 asciilifeform there is 1
23:18 decimation it's one 'modem' which is actually a 'software rate' which has multiple fucktarded interfaces
23:18 asciilifeform but it is structured in such a way that the band can be used only for voice XOR data
23:18 phf asciilifeform: my point was that feature phones are not particularly good at their claimed purpose, that buying an old nokia is a hemingwriter, and compared to them iphone has a good sound quality.
23:18 decimation because verizon says so
23:19 decimation my point about IP packets: lots of overhead if you already know where the packets need to go
23:19 decimation but someone needs to keep 'route state'
23:20 punkman phf, what's missing from dumb phone?
23:20 decimation plus you are forgetting something: usg demands that usg minions can excercise 'priority override'
23:20 phf punkman: decent sound quality
23:20 coderwill dfd\\\\\\\
23:20 punkman not a great password there coderwill
23:21 asciilifeform decimation: iirc this is traditionally handled by having a switch somewhere that essentially cancels everybody's subscription but for a few mandarins
23:21 decimation right, the implementation of which is obvious when there's physical relays setting up circuits
23:21 coderwill sorry, having problems with a bluetooth keyboard :)
23:21 decimation not so obvious when routing ip packets
23:22 decimation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationwide_Wireless_Priority_Service
23:22 assbot Nationwide Wireless Priority Service - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ... ( http://bit.ly/1HWRs2H )
23:22 asciilifeform of course, whole thing's a crock of shit because no consumer handset signs its output
23:23 asciilifeform it is no 'gossipd'
23:23 asciilifeform if you really want to transmit packets as hitler's pocket phone, and you can get a capture of its output - you can.
23:23 decimation asciilifeform: note that it could have been otherwise
23:24 asciilifeform sure.

23:27 decimation "GETS is accessed through a dialing plan and Personal Identification Number (PIN) card verification system. Using common telephone equipment, the user dials a universal access number: (710)NCS-GETS (627-4387)."
23:27 asciilifeform l0l was just reading this.
23:27 asciilifeform whoever thought this idiocy up, must have watched the payphone scene in 'dr strangelove'
23:28 decimation lol yeah
23:28 asciilifeform what usg functionary of any significance walks around without a satellite phone ?
23:28 decimation actually this dances around another silliness I've noticed
23:28 decimation asciilifeform: plenty
23:28 decimation you know how much they cost?
23:28 asciilifeform $0
23:28 asciilifeform (to him)
23:28 decimation sure, but someone has to budget
23:29 asciilifeform $1k or so, to a human
23:29 asciilifeform for comparison, an infantryman's basic rifle is ~$2k.
23:29 decimation yeah plus at least $1 per minute
23:29 asciilifeform who cares about $1/min if the nukes are falling
23:30 decimation the generations of bean counters that didn't give a fuck, that's who
23:30 asciilifeform what was the other silliness
23:30 decimation why do all localities/states/feds insist on building their own 'special cell network' known as police/fire radios?
23:30 asciilifeform tradition, partly
23:30 asciilifeform and partly 'push to talk'
23:30 asciilifeform a feature still absent from standard cells
23:31 decimation it would interesting to compare actual performance of the cell network with govt run equivilents
23:31 asciilifeform what cell net has millisecond call set-up/teardown ?
23:31 decimation yes, but most cell networks are ip under the hood (dispite the disadvantages)
23:31 decimation at least, LTE
23:31 decimation granded those aren't widely deployed
23:31 decimation nor are the designed to be highly reliable
23:32 asciilifeform other thing is,
23:32 asciilifeform radios work when any two+ can hear one another.
23:32 asciilifeform e.g., in a train tunnel
23:32 decimation ah not so
23:32 asciilifeform aboard a moving train
23:32 decimation most modern police radios are 'trunked' and talk to the central towers
23:32 asciilifeform and what, have no untrunked mode ?
23:33 decimation yes, but ask your local cop about how to get it to work
23:33 asciilifeform iirc all american units are set up to interoperate with old-fashioned analog radio
23:33 coderwill pretty sure the municipal systems (police, fire, air traffic) predate the types of networks
23:33 asciilifeform on account of a great many folks carrying just such
23:33 coderwill yes, what ascii said
23:33 decimation sure, but often that interoperability is handled at the tower
23:33 decimation by cross-linking 'trunked' with analog channels
23:34 asciilifeform however it is done, i see these on dc metro trains
23:34 asciilifeform working perfectly well
23:34 asciilifeform one policeman speaks to another at opposite end of train, or on the station
23:34 decimation sure, but that's because they have an entire radio system installed in the tunnels
23:34 phf (fwiw verizon also works on dc metro trains)
23:35 asciilifeform pretty sure the ~only~ radio in the tunnels proper is verizon's leaky-feeder-coax
23:35 coderwill guessing here, but also would imagine that fire/police/ambulance are basically on special plans with cell providers
23:35 coderwill e.g. att, verizon
23:36 asciilifeform coderwill: iirc they carry normal 'human' phones
23:36 coderwill and that an amulance or squad car, for example, is just a big mobile hotspot
23:36 asciilifeform not here.
23:36 asciilifeform they have 'human' phones, paid with own salary, typically.
23:36 decimation I listen to police traffic on apco-25
23:36 coderwill asciilifeform: maybe it depends on municipal budget
23:37 decimation it's nearly always the case that if cops want to talk about something sensitive they call on cell phone
23:37 asciilifeform decimation: i did for a while, bored myself to tears
23:37 coderwill i know out in the country, you used to be able to pickup police with a scanner
23:37 decimation wrt cops it all depends on local budgets/policies
23:37 decimation asciilifeform: it can be interesting, but you got to know the lingo
23:37 decimation and the 10-codes
23:37 asciilifeform coderwill: can still pick'em up with modern computerized scanner (p25)
23:37 decimation coderwill: scanners still pick up cops
23:38 coderwill ah, interesting
23:38 decimation project-25 is a dual-waveform standard with 4-fsk and qpsk
23:39 decimation most police radio systems have gone encrypted - not because of scanners but because people interlink scanners and iphones
23:39 decimation thus greatly multiplying the potential audience (want to listen to cops && can operate radio)
23:40 asciilifeform key is, i'm told, null, more often than not.
23:40 asciilifeform (consumer scanners, however, will not even attempt aes decrypt)
23:40 asciilifeform ^ usg mandate
23:40 decimation quite possible. the same problems with key distribution are always present
23:41 coderwill i wonder how that works w/ sting operations if people can pick up chatter on scanners?
23:41 asciilifeform coderwill: the way it works is 'don't use radio'
23:41 asciilifeform it isn't as if police can't use their mouths, talk like normal humans in person
23:41 decimation yes, I've noticed that cops are reluctant to use radio for anything other than 'report to seniors'
23:41 asciilifeform radio is normally used for dispatching.
23:42 coderwill also, i remember 10 or so years ago, you used to be able to get a scanner and rabbit ears and listen to people talking on their cordless phones, but you can't do that anymore either
23:42 asciilifeform and occasionally 'return codes' - 'have prisoner for transport,' 'send corpse squad', etc
23:42 asciilifeform coderwill: land lines died
23:42 decimation no he's talking about the old "AMPS" system
23:42 decimation where cell phones used analog FM channels around 800-900 mhz
23:42 coderwill yeah, i think once phones got past 900mhz it wasn't possible
23:43 decimation sure it's possible
23:43 decimation usg mandated otherwise
23:44 BingoBoingo <decimation> where cell phones used analog FM channels around 800-900 mhz << USG mandates scanners and amateur radios ship with "blank spot" over that portion of spectrum
23:44 coderwill decimation: ah, so basically, it's illegal for manufacturers to provide that kind of functionality commercially?
23:44 decimation coderwill: yes absolutely, what bingo said
23:45 coderwill ah, 10-4
23:45 asciilifeform buy an rtl-sdr and listen to more or less whatever
23:45 asciilifeform $20 or so.

23:48 trinque shape of the "midlands" is absurd, and maybe "el norte" is a bit on the small side.

23:52 decimation actually it kinda pisses me off how locked up the fm bands are

23:53 decimation but clear channel et.al. conspired to effectively make that illegal
23:53 coderwill phf: yeah, would be surprised if not in a federal minimum security penitentiary if still doing that kind of stuff
23:53 asciilifeform no reason why 'pirate radio' can't be matchbox-sized, solar-powered, and dropped from quadcopter in 100 places within an hour.
23:53 decimation yes, a decentralized network is possible
23:54 decimation who's gonna pay
23:54 asciilifeform ~pirate~
23:54 coderwill think about how much power though is emitting out of commercial radio antennas
23:54 decimation pirate what?
23:54 asciilifeform moscow pays
23:54 asciilifeform or a mircea_popescu
23:54 asciilifeform etc.
23:55 coderwill it would be like playing an iphone speaker in the middle of a packed sports arena

23:55 decimation most commercial fm towers run around 10-100kilowatt
23:56 decimation asciilifeform: the problem is that now you are depending on people to have sensitive receivers
23:56 decimation fm radio suffers from the 'capture effect' where your receiver only 'listens' to the strongest station and rejects all others
23:56 decimation when two stations compete your radio 'flutters'
23:57 coderwill asciilifeform: yeah, was thinking if you were on an unoccupied band, it's kind of like waiting people to just stumble over it
23:57 decimation plus in urban areas there aren't any unoccipied bands
23:58 asciilifeform there sure are
23:58 decimation seeming 'empty' frequencies are assigned to the next city away
23:58 asciilifeform bring a 'rtl-sdr' into the city, and see
23:58 asciilifeform also 'pirate' must answer the question to himself, of what his purpose is.
23:59 decimation pirate faces difficult choice: be effective and go to jail/enter 'justice' chumpatron or be ineffective and waste time
