09:29 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-21#1804273 << nope. you're invited to buy the same drive and test. fwiw, and unlike cheaper ones, it has wear leveling.
09:29 a111 Logged on 2018-04-21 05:19 ckang: ben_vulpes: have you done any test on the reliability of those USB3 drives?
09:29 asciilifeform and observe that the pizarro rockboxen are build without swapism.
09:29 asciilifeform *built
09:30 ckang ah thats what i was going to ask
09:35 asciilifeform ( asciilifeform never enables swap at all, period. it is an anachronism. )
09:36 ckang http://www.cypress.com/documentation/application-notes/an89661-usb-raid-1-disk-design-using-ez-usbr-fx3stm
09:37 ckang i was considering using this and spinning a board at one point
09:37 ckang but the fx3s is still pretty pricey in low volume
09:37 asciilifeform ckang: idiocy; they will wear at same rate
09:37 asciilifeform in raid1
09:37 asciilifeform and fail at same moment
09:38 ckang most servers are going to that setup though
09:38 ckang new ones anyways
09:38 asciilifeform because fauxraid and again idiot buyers
09:38 asciilifeform and FUCK 'most are going'
09:38 asciilifeform with red hot arse poker.
09:39 ckang all our new dells do anyway
09:39 ckang granted we still use usb drives...
09:39 asciilifeform i will not be buying any fauxraids. or dells.
09:40 ckang even with low writes, every usb seems to fail after a year of being plugged up and running
09:40 ckang granted its mostly consumer grade stuff, samsung
09:40 ckang sandisk
09:42 asciilifeform ckang: i have nfi what you've been buying; over here i have boxen that've been running off usb drives for 4+ yrs
09:42 asciilifeform 24/7
09:43 asciilifeform just . don't. fucking. swap. to. them. and don't winblowz/crapple/whatever shituntus insist on constantly massaging the drive for no reason.
09:43 ckang mostly use them for esxi host, not a big deal if it dies fortunately
09:45 ckang http://pizarroisp.net/index.php/pizarro-hosting-rate-sheet/ <-- down?
09:45 asciilifeform nope
09:45 asciilifeform loads for me
09:48 asciilifeform re drives : do recall that you get a phree yearly swap, ~if needed~ .
09:49 asciilifeform ( if we pull the 'failed' drive, and all sectors write ok, you'll be getting that same drive again. )
09:50 asciilifeform and backups are the customer's responsibility. always and without exception.
09:50 ckang do you have the drive model by chance?
09:51 ckang the ones I have are samsung usb3 dont advertise wear leveling
09:51 asciilifeform MUF-128BB/AM
09:51 ckang ty
09:51 asciilifeform supposed to have it. i dun have the chipset datashit tho, cannot say for certain.

11:41 avgjoe thanks, i'm registered on deedbot
11:41 lobbesbot avgjoe: Sent 1 day, 21 hours, and 32 minutes ago: <BingoBoingo> I don't talk to strangers in private
11:43 avgjoe so i'd like to ask what happens if there are other "avgjoe" logged on irc and my client change a bit the username to log me in
11:43 avgjoe is there a way to register the username on the channel?
11:44 asciilifeform avgjoe: https://freenode.net/kb/answer/registration etc
11:45 asciilifeform it's a fleanode chan, reg yer nick on fleanode
11:45 avgjoe when i log in it says: Your host is hobana.freenode.net[81.18.73.123/6667],
11:46 asciilifeform aha
11:46 asciilifeform follow their recipe, reg the nick
11:52 avgjoe ok, i just wanted to report my experience installing TRB. On debian stretch after installing all the dependencies listed on http://thebitcoin.foundation/trb-howto.html , i've modified on /etc/apt/sources.list the repo to the jessie one, then installed gcc and g++ 4.9, then reversed back to stretch
11:55 avgjoe after installing the deps, i had to set export CPPFLAGS="-P" , otherwise it fails in the middle
11:56 avgjoe then started the bitcoind with LC_ALL=C in front of the command and started syncing
11:58 avgjoe so far is working properly on debian 9 just modifying the repo (because stretch repo hasn't gcc 4.x)
12:00 avgjoe my question is: if i add nodes that aren't on the trusted nodes list, what are the risks?
~ 20 minutes ~
12:21 BingoBoingo <avgjoe> my question is: if i add nodes that aren't on the trusted nodes list, what are the risks? << Unknown, generally desirable to get more connections. The idea of the list is to provide a minimum number of non-evil nodes to help you stay in civilized communion.
12:21 avgjoe but aren't new blocks fetched from evil implementations?
12:22 avgjoe someone (not my server, but some other trb instance) is going to get from who these blocks?
12:22 BingoBoingo Maybe? Maybe not? The question is do the blocks validate as good.
12:23 BingoBoingo If the blocks are good, they are Bitcoin Blocks. If not, they are some sort of altcoin (but probably not capital A Altcoin) blocks
12:24 avgjoe ok i understand, so i shouldn't worry if for instance i connect to a segwit node, my node will try to chop off the irrelevant parts of what it receive, correct?
12:26 avgjoe so the trusted nodes list is more useful on the initial startup when there are a lot of blocks to download and it'd be easier to just have nodes that doesn't send unnecessary info (like segwit payload)?
12:26 BingoBoingo Segwit nodes usually have been bricked to the point of not successfully connecting to the Bitcoin network
12:27 BingoBoingo And Segwit can't in the form the Power Rangers settled on arbitrarily slice shit off of transactions or blocks. Segwit is an opt-in evil. It can only tickle your butthole if you let it in.
12:29 avgjoe other curiosity i've not found on logs: what does it means bastard block on the debug.log?
12:29 BingoBoingo The node is unaware of the block's parentage.
12:30 BingoBoingo It may be a good block, it it will have to try getting accepted again once the node is aware of its daddy
12:41 BingoBoingo This keeps bastards from unproductively filling up RAM

14:51 mircea_popescu fabulous, right, because we weren't supposed to notice madmax is gay interest for the sort who "go viking".
14:51 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo, hard to say no to hopkins etc.
14:54 trinque lol yeah, serious gay vibes throughout.
14:57 mircea_popescu aha.
14:58 mircea_popescu good quality humour always includes a pinch to heaping spoonfuls of ~providing something in short supply~. the pantsuit tards translate this as "speak truth to power", but it's utter bullshit. the politics of humour are uninteresting from a humor-centered perspective ; but the economics of humor are not -- because economics was blessed by god originally with this and only this its attribute : you will forever be field-relevan
14:58 mircea_popescu t to any field howsoever defined.
14:59 mircea_popescu and have you noticed how little PATRONIZING of gays is available on the discoursive shelves of today ?
14:59 mircea_popescu that's my own explanation for myself as to what has just happened to me, for the record. "the guy thought..." in context.
15:04 BingoBoingo <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo, hard to say no to hopkins etc. << Sure, but the original film has a much better deviant
15:05 mircea_popescu yeahj the red dragon script is terribad, all that woman-interest bs with 4tehchildrenz etc.

15:12 mircea_popescu well, let me know what he thinks if he ever does.
15:12 mircea_popescu better film of woman as satan i do not know.
15:13 BingoBoingo There's also a made for TV adaptation spanning three seasons which no one has time for in 2018 that turns the script into an overt love story between the FBI profiler and the Republican psychiatrist to fill time
15:13 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo, heh. tv junklets you knopw\]
15:15 BingoBoingo Show ends with Jack and Hannibal erotically slicing up the FYIAD fellow and cliff diving to presumed death or a cancelled fourth season of their love story
15:26 mircea_popescu heh
15:27 BingoBoingo Turns out you CAN be too gay for NBC
15:28 mircea_popescu or maybe just not fabulous enough.
15:29 BingoBoingo Also possible. Maybe it was for spreading very 1980's stereotypes of homosexuals?

18:01 mircea_popescu the point of trusted nodes isn't "don't link to other nodes or bad things weill happen". the point is "always have these in your connection to stay sane", because a major attack vector towards bitcoin is separation, ie get two sets of nodes adrift in different realities.
18:02 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-21#1804343 << blocks are immutable by implementations ; this is both the source of the observation that "bitcoin corrupts absolutely", ie, it is superlative to anything the usg can come up with ; and the whole fucking point of the protocol in the first place. can trust evil people to do your shit, because bitcoin promises it will enforce upon them the dilemma "either be ENTIRELY impotent, or els

21:34 phf i started humoring him, "that's what we do", "the hunter must hunt" etc. but that might've been a mistake, because he got progressively more agitated, and i had to depart out of fear of him getting violent
