00:54 BingoBoingo Aite, one blog is up. The LAMP is lit.
00:54 BingoBoingo bvt: Do you want me to stand up an instance of your blog from the UY1 backup?

01:11 lobbes wb bingology.net
01:24 BingoBoingo lobbes: I've got more to bring back.
01:27 BingoBoingo Meanwhile in local news, the fellow who identifies as an economist thrashing about his Party's collapse under him https://www.montevideo.com.uy/Noticias/Talvi--El-FA-uso-el-aparato-del-Estado-para-intentar-destruir-al-Partido-Colorado--uc732566

01:52 asciilifeform wb BingoBoingo's www !
01:54 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Other www's are getting ready to come up as well. hanbot's and nicoleci's have been requested. Waiting for others to explicitly request theirs given this is 'anyserver' rather than 'UY1 that bingo sees, touches, and locks'
01:54 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: 1 nitpick -- for links that are in fact in 'era 2', i rec to point to the loggers maintained by the living. i've nfi where is phf and for how long his ghost ship will stay afloat.
01:55 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: For some reason feedbot pushed a July post.
01:55 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i expect to very soon have a 'touchable' cage. unless i turn up something truly outrageous tomorrow at the site visit.
01:56 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: proprietor seemed vehehery eager to sell.
01:56 BingoBoingo Sounds promising
01:56 asciilifeform 'pay, get keys' etc
01:57 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: pretty interesting, imho. the people with 5x the price, take their sweet fucking time, as if dun really like money at all
01:58 asciilifeform meanwhile this one here called in <5min after email.
01:59 BingoBoingo Well, in the smaller op the benefit he gets from 1 more customer probably more tangibly motivating
02:01 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: it aint 'properly' small tho. seems to be owned by some conglomerate. 'coloco'.
02:02 asciilifeform full rack btw goes for ~500 there.
02:02 asciilifeform dunno wai so cheap, and difficult to overcome the 'gut' suspicion that 'there is catch.' but gotta be tried.
02:02 asciilifeform ( that 500 rack comes w/ Gb/s , supposedly. )
02:05 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: lol, asciilifeform apparently not awake at all, ~just now~ understood that was reading a july piece.
02:18 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: These sorts of things happen
02:18 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: 'coloco' fella asked if i had any personally-owned ip chunks. ( asciilifeform does not . ) but iirc mp did. if this machinepark turns out to be worthwhile, and mp ends up sending in a box(s) , he could actually use own ips there.
02:20 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Depends on the regional registry, but yeah. One of the early headaches down here is that LATAM is IP space poor.
02:21 BingoBoingo traceroute between the chair and 'anyserver' includes a 112 ms hop from brasil to ny
02:21 asciilifeform notbad
02:22 BingoBoingo 16 hops, most of which are frontloaded antel to antel
02:24 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i'm thinking, the $14 (12 if full-cab) per u , is even cheaper than maxim's. there's gotta be some reason...
02:24 asciilifeform (maxim wanted 35 eu. per u)
02:25 asciilifeform ( i.e. 39 us $ atm )
02:27 BingoBoingo Maybe trying to compete with US-Pacific Coast prices?
02:28 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i do not presently know what costs there.
02:28 asciilifeform on pacific.
02:28 * asciilifeform not even had occasion to go there, just yet.
02:29 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Everynow and then offers from there hit the circular file. Apparently Oregon, Washington, etc have space around that price for full racks
02:29 asciilifeform notbad
02:29 * BingoBoingo has not looked at those offer in detail recently
02:29 asciilifeform ( if only ben were still alive... )
02:29 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Well he moved to Texas
02:30 BingoBoingo iirc
02:30 asciilifeform a
02:32 * asciilifeform actually unearthed ~several~ poorly-advertised dc's in reasonable proximity to hovel, not only this 1. but none of the others 'eager beaver' , no word from'em just yet
02:33 asciilifeform my orig. method of search, was braindamaged. did it from 0 again, properly.
02:38 BingoBoingo Anyways, my CentOS 6 review: It's like Gentoo in that you end up building all of the moving parts. It differs from Gentoo in not having a portage full of recipes for doing so.
02:38 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: already purchased another 'octeon' to set up the entrance router + switch for wherever new asciilifeform cage built. and will start by emplacing apu1's & rk's , then anyone who has the courage to put box in heart of reich.
02:40 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: dulap-I was iirc a centos6 box. it is possible to live in it. but you dun get the fine-grained scalpel that gentoo folx are accustomed to.
02:41 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: not even directly comparable, imho, centos packages are binariolade balls
02:42 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: The packages are worthless. Sure, they are old versions of software, but they are the wrong old versions.
02:43 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: dunno, i was able to stand up phuctor. ( and , not long ago, diana_coman -- logger . ) but then again these aint the 'hungriest' known proggies re deps.
02:44 BingoBoingo Well, the LAMP thing has three moving parts that gotta talk to each other. mp-wp seems happier on apache 2.2 than the 2.4 UY1 had. But, that means cleaning up all sorts of version to version nitpicky breakages.

15:53 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-15 09:59:22 diana_coman: mod6: http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-August/000160.html and similar gives 403; did those move somewhere else?
16:00 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: I can probably move it over if mod6 asks, in the case of the mailing list I will have to dig at what it needs to stand on. Because of what 'anyserver' is I am not at all inclined to put things there unless folks request it.
16:01 BingoBoingo mp_en_viaje: ty
~ 22 minutes ~
16:23 * BingoBoingo suspects mailing list probably ought not to be on a blog box, even if it isn't intended to send outgoing dispatches.
16:34 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: it's pretty strange that the url leads to anyffin at all, if it hasn't yet been moved
16:39 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: iirc mod6 and ben colo'd a second box in a different rack somewhere.
16:39 asciilifeform ah. evidently it's broken tho.
~ 23 minutes ~
17:03 asciilifeform meanwhile in minor noose, asciilifeform found that one vendor still makes usb stix (for routers etc) w/ single-layer nand flash. claims operation to +85C and 60,000 rewrites per block.
17:04 asciilifeform ( what practical impact from this ? for instance, finally canhaz entrance router that actually logs events. instead of running from readonly squashfs as is usual. )
~ 48 minutes ~
17:53 mod6 diana_coman: Yeah, thanks. BB made me a backup before the drives were pulled. I've placed all of the tbf website files back onto the original vps that used to host the site. So far, seems everything is working ok (as far as I can tell), other than the Mailing List.
17:54 mod6 I spent a fair amount of time yesterday trying to get Mailman working, which was frustrating, but no luck yet. If nothing else, I think I'll just ensure that all of the archives are visible somehow.
17:54 asciilifeform mod6: confirmed; errything nao loads but the ml
17:54 diana_coman mod6: ah, I see; yes, just the archives accessible and it will be great.
17:56 mod6 Regarding the foundation's two boxen: One was in .uy, the other was supposed to go down there, but is still in the possession of ben_vulpes. I communicated with him last week regarding the box, he'll be sending it to me as soon as I get him the deets.
17:57 asciilifeform mod6: i'ma be inspecting and possibly leasing a rack today. if this goes properly, mod6 can consider installing $box there .
17:57 mod6 Yeah, not sure if we care about the ML any more as far as a communication tool for development or what not. So getting the archives back up is a decent start.
17:58 mod6 asciilifeform: Yeah, not sure how that would work exactly. Since I don't have $$$ for racking such things, unless your dc is gonna take btc?
17:58 asciilifeform mod6: it's a usa rack, but (supposedly) locking, and in 20min range of asciilifeform , who will be gardening it personally
17:58 asciilifeform mod6: ~asciilifeform~ will eat btc.
17:58 mod6 Ah, well then!
17:59 mod6 I'll wait a bit to see how things progress on that matter, and if all good, maybe will have bv just send the box directly there. Would save me a bunch of shipping fees.
17:59 asciilifeform i'ma 1st get the rack tho, and its ~exact~ cost, and ~then~ come up with prices. ( will be cheaper than piz, cuz elementarily , in a quite high-risk location , not to mention the rack per se is 5x cheaper per u )
18:00 asciilifeform mod6: expecting to charge (in coin) equiv. of 20-30 $ u.s. per 1u, presently.
18:01 asciilifeform 'gardening' included.
18:01 mod6 Oh, that's very reasonable. Thanks for finding the place.
18:01 asciilifeform mod6: 'bear found but not yet killed' but yw.
18:02 mod6 Aight, ima keep working on this website thing here. Will write in when the archives are at least visible.
18:05 asciilifeform mod6: think about whether it may be good idea to try an' structure asciilifeform's , diana_coman's , other folx, rack efforts, as a continuation of piz. ( rly oughta ask mp whether this makes sense , tho ) . otherwise can operate as 'errymanforhimself'.
18:08 asciilifeform mod6: at the very least, imho the purely piz-owned irons oughta live in new racks asap rather than go through the cycle of sell-for-penny-on-dollar-to-orcs etc. but no such thing will be done w/out agreement of shareholders ( and mod6 is majority holder. )
18:08 asciilifeform mod6: BingoBoingo appears to have prelim. data re the cost of transporting'em, it seems to be +ev.
18:09 asciilifeform BingoBoingo plox to comment re ^ when you get a chance.
18:10 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: +EV for some, maybe. The TBF box with its dell badge is probably going to get its greatest return on the local market where folks pay to posture. Haven't yet dig into seeing much in the way of what the supermicros might return with some small amount of patience.
18:10 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: do you recall the estimate for 'crate from BingoBoingostan to usa' ?
18:11 asciilifeform simply to put reasonably accurate picture in log
18:13 BingoBoingo Fedex economy came in with an estimate a bit under 300 USD given the dulap's dimensions and bathroom scale weight without packaging. Packaging at this moment is looking like it will end up being mover's foam rolls and improvised cardboard box/wrap held together with substantial tape.
18:15 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: my current thinking is, to usa, to move the beefier (24, 32 cpu) boxen -- +ev ; but to europistan , where i expect would cost 1.5x-2x, + oddball europistani taxes, may not be, if anyone contemplating the latter, oughta do separate estimate
18:15 BingoBoingo DHL offers a more predictable per kilogram pricing model versus the FedEx black box, but they supposed just under 450 figuring an extra kilogram of packing.
18:16 asciilifeform for boxen owned by subscribers, is to be left 100% to subscriber. but will need to consult w/ mod6 re piz-owned irons in particular.
18:17 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i wanted the ballpark figure (ty) in log so that subscribers can start making decision 'i'ma ship' or 'i'ma make own new from 0'.
18:18 BingoBoingo Also anything going to with a declared value of 200 USD or above needs some export paperwork done. The past few months have seen rather large outbound cocaine busts bound for Europe, so the export inspection folk that haven't been arrested are likely a bit on edge.
18:19 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: find out what this involves. could 'make or break' the calculation.
18:22 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Aite. It involves retaining a customs dispatcher. I'll see what they want to produce this type of paperwork.
18:32 mod6 Alright, I've got the ML archives back up. http://thebitcoin.foundation/ml/ and http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/
18:32 mod6 Should do the trick, let me know if you see something wacky (there certainly might be).
18:32 asciilifeform ty mod6 ! seems to work.
18:33 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i expect you still have the ~import~ receipts from the boxen that ben botched. that oughta do ~sumthing~ ? try an' find out.
18:35 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: I do. Will use if necessary.
18:36 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: if the orcs double-taxation thing appears to make transportation impractical, we may want to consider a pickup flight by asciilifeform . can remove 4u of boxen for ~2k (us) total . for certain machines even this may be +ev.
18:36 asciilifeform ( not to mention custody of FG etc )
18:37 asciilifeform mp actually suggested this last week, as a possible backup for ordinary post if the degree of retardation involved in the latter is beyond what can be digested
18:37 mod6 http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945550 << In my opinion, Pizarro is done, and should be liquidated. Whatever the next isp-like-item that comes up should be a new thing of its own.
18:37 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-15 14:05:36 asciilifeform: mod6: think about whether it may be good idea to try an' structure asciilifeform's , diana_coman's , other folx, rack efforts, as a continuation of piz. ( rly oughta ask mp whether this makes sense , tho ) . otherwise can operate as 'errymanforhimself'.
18:37 asciilifeform mod6: prolly Right Thing.
18:38 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Right. This is not Argentina, so there should not be any export taxes in the reading I've done so far. Anyways priced per rack unit, it may vale la pena for the custodial benefit if you can make it down.
18:39 asciilifeform mod6: on top of this, imho the '20 boxen w/ no hot spares'-in-one-cage thing oughta be avoided . it tempts fate.
18:39 mod6 Very true.
18:39 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i'ma leave it 1) up to indiv. subscribers, for subscriber-owned boxen 2) mod6 for piz boxen. if 1+2 add up to 4, then it is worth for asciilifeform to physically pick up. otherwise not.
18:40 asciilifeform per my reading of last wk's log, to mod6 is also left the fate of the piz FG's (mp asked to be repayed in coin, rather than iron, as i parsed it)
18:42 mod6 If the FG's (28 or so??) were purchased from nosuchlabs via the .9 BTC worth of investment agreement, then yeah, should be repaid in coin.
18:42 asciilifeform for thread-completeness, there is also a possible variant where 4 boxen need pick up, but want to go to somewhere other than asciilifeform's. this is to be left to the owners, if indeed 4 boxen, and their owners want to move'em.
18:42 asciilifeform mod6: 36 .
18:43 mod6 Ah, ty. Yeah, and if Pizarro paid in the form of debt, then the debt will be paid in coins.
18:43 * asciilifeform rereads thread...
18:44 asciilifeform mp actually left the q 'in what pay' open until liquidation set up. but imho oughta ask him again , if we're actually considering a transport run .
18:44 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-09 13:12:00 mp_en_viaje: otherwise, if you two(/three, whatevs) decide you absolutely not want to sell boxes locally (preferably after having considered the matter, rather than some inept guesswork in the blind), sna can take gear in lieu of cash, but not at arbitrary rates of nonsense.
18:45 * BingoBoingo brb meat and errands
18:45 mod6 asciilifeform: Ah, ok. Sounds like we can work it out with mp then, one way or anohter.
18:46 asciilifeform ftr asciilifeform opposes the sale of remaining FG stockpile to orcs at flea market. but mod6 is majority holder, and so will mention even this, for thread-completeness strictly.
18:48 mod6 I'm not sure how it'll work out exactly, but somehow not selling the very finite resources of working/tested FGs to orcs would be in the best interest of the Republic.
18:48 asciilifeform imho yes.
18:49 asciilifeform mod6: i mention because it appears that BingoBoingo cannot simply put'em in 1-2 crates and mail, may trigger 'export' wank.
18:50 asciilifeform nao ideally i am mistaken about this, and can simply be posted.
18:50 asciilifeform ( along w/ anyffin else that the owners decide to move. )
18:51 mod6 Yeah, let's see what we can find out there. But let's not put the cart before horse. Let's first get all the customers situated with irons and whatever remittance is required via liquidation.
18:51 mod6 Then we can tackle the other questions of what remains.
18:52 mod6 (Please say if I'm not making sense.)
18:53 asciilifeform mod6: i bring up subj only to avoid possible recursive dependencies ( i.e. for some subscribers, whether to transport box or bake new , may depend on the costs -- and time involved ; and this in turn has effect on what's left to liquidate, etc )
18:54 * asciilifeform would at least like to settle the q of whether even makes sense for anyone to fetch boxes, and if so, which
18:55 mod6 Fair, we should be looking into that part for sure.
18:58 mod6 As far as the foundation is concerned... I was thinking, originally, that I would have the whole box (with drives) shipped back from .uy. Then could be re-racked somewhere. But now, with the possibility that there might be some new rack space available, maybe the foundation should just have the drives shipped back, to be used inside of the 2nd box, currently not in use.
18:59 mod6 Then could have the drives emplaced, racked, and off we go. Could simply sell the old box in .uy to orcs.
19:00 asciilifeform mod6: didja ever get an output from ben re his replacement in tbf ? afaik any possible transmutation of tbf requires at least a nod from the fella, given as he seems to be alive, and not yet formally drummed out
19:00 mod6 I haven't made a final decision yet though.
19:01 asciilifeform mod6: imho mp is right re tbf btw. it's a stone chained to leg of mod6 and dragging it isn't producing detectably useful output presently imho .
19:01 mod6 asciilifeform: He said 'he wouldn't know who to nominate.' I'm sure we'll dig into what do re: foundation when the Piz stuff is settled.
19:02 asciilifeform aite. it's b/w mod6 , ben, mp, & odin.
19:02 BingoBoingo mod6: Be aware your box down here is heavier and longer than any other. Shipping the whole box in you case is likely to be the lowest return way to handle your.
19:02 * BingoBoingo brb 4 real
19:03 mod6 BingoBoingo: Good to know, thx.
19:03 mod6 Sounds like shipping just the drives back might be the best way.
19:15 * asciilifeform going to machinepark in <1h

20:31 diana_coman mp_en_viaje: are comments closed on trilema?
20:31 mp_en_viaje nope ?
20:32 mp_en_viaje da fuck, 1sec
20:32 diana_coman hm, let me try from somewhere else; atm it says "Both comments and pings are currently closed." on http://trilema.com/2019/how-germany-got-itself-banned-and-western-europe-altogether-isnt-all-that-far-behind/
20:33 mp_en_viaje nfi whatsoever what might've caused that.
20:33 mp_en_viaje looking
20:36 mp_en_viaje diana_coman, fixed ; nfi how it got set up that way.
20:37 mp_en_viaje the joys of modern computing, do the exact same thing 10k times, get different results 0.02% of the time
20:37 diana_coman lolz, the unpredictable script
20:39 mp_en_viaje http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945531 << not bad.
20:39 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-15 13:04:29 asciilifeform: ( what practical impact from this ? for instance, finally canhaz entrance router that actually logs events. instead of running from readonly squashfs as is usual. )
20:41 mp_en_viaje from bitter root experience of failure comes renewed effort to do shit right, i take it ?
20:43 mp_en_viaje http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945550 << it only makes sense if you'll actually do it.
20:43 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-15 14:05:36 asciilifeform: mod6: think about whether it may be good idea to try an' structure asciilifeform's , diana_coman's , other folx, rack efforts, as a continuation of piz. ( rly oughta ask mp whether this makes sense , tho ) . otherwise can operate as 'errymanforhimself'.
20:52 mp_en_viaje http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945586 << the question keeps shifting, seeing how originally discussion was re coupla servers, not 28 fgs. in any case, the answer was then just as what is now : nsa will take .9 btc as it's owed in either cash or some other thing of equal value, for pizarro's convenience.
20:52 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-15 14:44:22 asciilifeform: mp actually left the q 'in what pay' open until liquidation set up. but imho oughta ask him again , if we're actually considering a transport run .
20:53 mp_en_viaje there won't be a yes/no until there's a specific list of what pizarro actually proposes.

21:09 mp_en_viaje BingoBoingo, the above is now done, in the sense that http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=yhHl are being announced ; mind though that you're not supposed to have all these in the same c block ideally.
21:20 BingoBoingo mp_en_viaje: ty. Once more friendly boxes start getting stood up I'd like to start meaningfully speading the DNS around. Different c-blocks, different continents, etc.
21:21 mp_en_viaje cool.
21:30 * BingoBoingo has a couple requests for blogs to stand up on 'anyserver' to attend to.
21:34 mp_en_viaje meh, apparently half an article made it in wtf is this
21:38 bvt http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-14#1945443 << please proceed with the installation
21:38 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-14 20:54:58 BingoBoingo: bvt: Do you want me to stand up an instance of your blog from the UY1 backup?
21:39 BingoBoingo bvt, ty I'll get yours lined up.
~ 32 minutes ~
22:11 asciilifeform so, achtung, panzers ! asciilifeform -- signed up for rack.
22:11 asciilifeform 22u (2 occupied by power an/ net panel) so yields 20 holes.
22:12 asciilifeform took a while to go over the contract, cross out things i didn't like , etc. but all eaten. rack people took the dough, promised keys on friday (apparently needs day to clear cheque and day to run wire.)
22:12 asciilifeform also came back with some photos (unlike latech, these people not allergic, apparently, to photo), will post.
22:13 mod6 cool, ty alf
22:14 BingoBoingo ty for the good news
22:15 asciilifeform pretty fancy house, btw, vs. latech's.
22:16 asciilifeform unmarked bldg, in the middle of nowhere. inside, tho, resembling hybrid of dc and lobby of 5star hotel, flunkies bring coffee etc.
22:17 diana_coman oh hey, well done asciilifeform !
22:18 diana_coman and I still want to take a rk there, as soon as it's available really; atm my sad pile of isp idiots is only growing ,with not much useful to show for it.
22:18 asciilifeform diana_coman: i'ma start fillin' it as soon as get keyz
22:19 asciilifeform and all l1 people are invited. (at some point l2 ditto, after erryone in l1 who wants in, is in.)
22:20 asciilifeform will write a photops0t right after tea, re: what i found inside.
22:22 asciilifeform diana_coman: i hesitate to say 'a+++ machinepark' until i've, lol, actually plugged sumthing in. but by all indications promising, in-biz since '94 and claims 0 outage complaints to date. sits on regional backbone.
22:22 asciilifeform has amenities i had nfi even existed in dc -- dock and crane for loading irons, and hydraulic cranes on wheels for insertions of boxen.
22:22 asciilifeform all w/ 0 surcharge for use.
22:23 asciilifeform 2 battery rooms & 4 megawatt diesels.
22:23 asciilifeform and all this, for a pittance.
22:25 diana_coman asciilifeform: fwiw, ~all the isps in the US that I even looked at were significantly cheaper than similar eu-based ones (which in turn cheaper than some more exotic locations)
22:25 asciilifeform http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945645 << this !
22:25 ossabot Logged on 2019-10-15 16:41:31 mp_en_viaje: from bitter root experience of failure comes renewed effort to do shit right, i take it ?
22:25 diana_coman the eu-cheap usually means they have a dc in moldova/ro/bulgaria, lolz.
22:25 asciilifeform diana_coman: apparently we found ~1~ thing that's cheap in usa..
22:26 * asciilifeform had a very 'you get what pay for' upbringing so hesitant to 'get excite'. but it's by all indications a genuine rack, in genuine dc, and dirt cheap. we find out moar by actually pluggin' in...
22:27 diana_coman asciilifeform: so you know, maybe worth actually to http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-10-15#1945646
