00:20 mircea_popescu lobbes that's not even the cannonical item ; hanbot is working on a no-binary genesis for it on phf's new version vdiff.
00:20 mircea_popescu which i don't even recall, was it released yet or ?
00:31 ben_vulpes yes but then no
00:32 mircea_popescu cannes, you know, "un certain release"
00:35 ben_vulpes diana_coman, mircea_popescu: i apologize for the hysteresis in server specs, but i failed to procure the cable i need for the high-throughput raid card in time to board tomorrow. i'm provisioning the machine reserved for your use with a software raid10 for installation this week, but you have the option to wait an uncertain amount of time for me to get the cable down to the dc and reprovision it with a much
00:35 ben_vulpes faster hardware raid array. your choice.
00:35 mircea_popescu o ffs. software raid ~= virtual blowjob.
00:36 ben_vulpes i apologize sincerely.
00:36 ben_vulpes i can also abort this provisioning run and install directly to the ssd if you'd prefer
00:36 mircea_popescu will hafta get back to you on this, but tis kinda meh!
00:36 ben_vulpes i deeply agree.
00:36 mircea_popescu install directly to the what now ?
00:37 ben_vulpes well there are 4 ssds in the machine, i can install an os to one of them and let you mount the other three however you'd like
00:38 mircea_popescu i don';t get it, what's os installing to do with anything ?
00:40 ben_vulpes 'tis at least a usable machine, if sw raid is so abhorrent; thought the option was worth offering. doesn't sound like you have any interest though.
00:41 mircea_popescu well, this is a fundamental, at least to me, service pizarro is offering, GENUINE raid. ie, raid installed by republican hands out of genuine components etc.
00:41 mircea_popescu pantsuit implementations, be they software or dubiola are all kinda akin from this perspective. akin to nothing at all, that is.
00:42 ben_vulpes very useful feedback in nailing down hardware spec, ty
00:43 mircea_popescu when are you leaving anyway ?
00:43 ben_vulpes tomorrow, late
00:43 mircea_popescu an' no raid cables to be found in cascadia ?!
00:44 ben_vulpes this is the ass end of nowhere, populated entirely by apple fanbois
00:44 mircea_popescu hm.
00:46 ben_vulpes think fairbanks but with even fewer useful people
00:47 ben_vulpes i have like 2 long shots to try tomorrow
00:47 mircea_popescu prolly worth fedexing one to uy address.
00:48 ben_vulpes that is one of the things i'm going to try, yeah
00:48 ben_vulpes also walking the list of craigslist server vendors emailing any that look halfway competent to see if they have what i need
00:48 ben_vulpes "vendors"

11:27 mircea_popescu holy shit, ciclists aren't people.
11:27 mircea_popescu so if one day i decide to play golf in the fucking road, that's it, everyone's stuck accomodating my 10mph electric golf cart (in the best of cases, but more generally my 1.2 mph half blind 165yo caddy) ?
11:28 mircea_popescu fuck that dumb shit, i don't care some slick scammer sold them on the idea it's a conveyance. it's not more of a conveyance than any fucking kitchen robot, that also sorta-kinda moves around on the countertop.
11:28 mircea_popescu i don't see any fucking roman oxcarts plaguing the highways, and i'd better fucking not see any more of these hipster doofuses either.
11:29 ben_vulpes someday riding down offending cyclists will no longer be frowned upon and the world will rejoice
11:30 mircea_popescu word, ima get a cowgrate on my car, except for the other sort of cow.
11:31 mircea_popescu not even ride them down per se, let nature take its course and cripple them instead.
11:31 ben_vulpes i'm going to go for the wheel-mounted blades
11:31 mircea_popescu hopefully get eaten by dingo pack. in the usual fashion dingos hunt, ie evisceration.
11:32 * ben_vulpes off on last-ditch shot at component sourcing

11:33 ben_vulpes it's 830, actually
11:33 mircea_popescu oh
11:33 * ben_vulpes once did time in a shop where folks struggled to make the daily check in at 10a
11:33 mircea_popescu sometimes i forget this land flattens out towards teh anus.
11:36 BingoBoingo <ben_vulpes> it's 830, actually << Ah, you are only traveling 5 hours into the future this week.
11:38 mircea_popescu in other news, nikki cardenas (kink.com bills her "skylar price" for some incomprehensible reason) has a great gangbang personality.

13:22 phf http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-05#1786908 http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-05#1786909 << must've been some miscommunication on my part, but both sha and keccak versions of vdiff, in working state, have been out since last wednesday
13:22 a111 Logged on 2018-03-05 05:20 mircea_popescu: which i don't even recall, was it released yet or ?
13:22 a111 Logged on 2018-03-05 05:31 ben_vulpes: yes but then no
13:24 phf the release have been branched, and you press to two different heads if you want a sha or keccak version, but specifically for hanbot's purposes, sha vdiff is available, with the "no newline" issue fixed, as per http://barksinthewind.com/2018/vtools-keccak/#selection-95.221-99.40
13:34 phf spyked reported another C attribute annotation issue since then http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-01#1786600 , but it's yet another compiler/system combination problem, and those who managed to build c vdiff previously should be able to do so still (sans the noreturn and 'no newline' issues)
13:34 a111 Logged on 2018-03-01 13:52 spyked: anyway, comment was that I managed to compile and run vdiff with small mods; error: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/BiBTI/?raw=true and fix patch: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/9mOiz/?raw=true (tested this with the generated vdiff); I can try to link this reply later in a comment to test.
13:37 mircea_popescu aha! cool.\

18:00 diana_coman http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-05#1786939 <- uhm, hmm, dunno, in South Tyrol they have those great cycling tracks *not in the road of course, completely separate* and it's absolutely great for a day thing: get on bike, cycle up and down the Dolomites for some 2-3 hours, get to a lake, have a rest and a swim, go back in 45 minutes (mostly downhill, fun like hell), sleep like a log
18:00 a111 Logged on 2018-03-05 16:27 mircea_popescu: holy shit, ciclists aren't people.
18:04 diana_coman sort of the skiing of summer in that region I'd say; but to the point: cyclists are perfectly people but they don't ride alongside cars - why would one *want* to ride a bicycle among/between/alongside cars, it's nonsense quadrupled
18:04 ben_vulpes THE ADRENALINE
18:04 diana_coman while breathing exhaust fumes? wtf
18:05 diana_coman adrenaline: go down some forest path narrow and steep; plenty
18:05 ben_vulpes look i'm not arguing that young me was particularly bright or that things have changed much, ok?
18:05 diana_coman did you grow up in some big city?
18:06 ben_vulpes well, "big", 1.5M if you count most of the exurbs as well
18:06 diana_coman yeah, that might explain it of sorts
18:06 ben_vulpes mountain biking was a weekend trip sort of thing
18:07 ben_vulpes there was a lot of fun unused industrial area along the river for quite some time that yielded all sorts of bikefun, but it's been largely sanitized at this point.
18:07 * diana_coman used to do precisely as described cycling + swimming; that's the main part she's missing of South Tyrol
18:08 diana_coman well, the very sunny part was included
18:08 ben_vulpes sounds great; there was also plenty of biking along the river and jumping in at arbitrary points to be done but! on segregated paths
18:09 diana_coman so not enough adrenaline then? on those segregated paths?
18:09 ben_vulpes no those are downright idyllic
18:10 ben_vulpes gotta get into traffic if you have a death wish
18:10 diana_coman heh, I still quite distinctly remember some crazy-speed-racing-bikes on those segregated paths; not exactly idyllic, no
18:11 diana_coman granted, no motors though, no vroom-vroom
18:11 ben_vulpes "springwater corridor" is plenty wide enough for the speed demons to breeze in between groups riding two abreast
18:12 ben_vulpes these days folks strap lipos to the bicycles and haul ass at ~motorcycle speeds
18:12 diana_coman must be the crowded Europe then: never enough space for lack of adrenaline, lol
18:12 diana_coman what's a lipo?
18:12 * ben_vulpes would like to try
18:12 ben_vulpes "lithium polymer"
18:13 diana_coman oh
18:13 diana_coman but uhm, what's...the...point
18:13 diana_coman I mean: get a motorcycle then, no?
18:13 ben_vulpes why not take a motorcycle on the bike track for that matter
18:14 ben_vulpes motorbikes don't fit in the bike lockup facilities downtown
18:14 ben_vulpes also licensing
18:15 diana_coman so then getting something almost like a motorcycle but not quite and in any case as fast but pretending to be still a bike; sheesh
18:15 diana_coman an atv as well I suppose, why not
18:19 ben_vulpes it gets worse, not even as fast!
18:21 diana_coman lol!
18:21 BingoBoingo And lacks cool mudding tread pattern of ATV tires too!
