[01:06:57] <chromas> Guess which famous musician is next on the chopping block.
[01:08:04] <Bytram> chromas: TP?
[01:08:10] <chromas> Aye
[01:09:00] <Bytram> yep, reports already that he had, but then LAPD said something to the effect that they could not say.
[01:09:25] <Bytram> not necessarily that their earlier report was correct or not, but sounded to me more like they were not at liberty to state so
[01:09:44] <Bytram> and, reading between the lines, someone divulged information that they were not authorized to do so.
[01:13:09] -!- Sirfinku_ has quit [Quit: Textual IRC Client: www.textualapp.com]
[01:16:21] <Sulla> As someone born in '89, to what year can I justify ignorance of cultural events without seeming weird?
[01:16:53] <Sulla> I did not know who tom petty was until just now
[01:20:36] <Bytram> cannot say. I'm sure there are some celebs of whom I am blissfully unaware, as well.
[01:21:40] <Bytram> for example, I have *heard* of the kardashians... but that is it... would not recognize one of them if they were standing right next to me. (well, maybe their entourage and body guards might be a hint)
[01:28:15] <chromas> You didn't watch You didn't watch Star Trek?

[12:13:26] <Bytram> anybody here able to run this command for me?
[12:13:27] <Bytram> show ip bgp 175.45.176.0
[12:13:50] <Bytram> checking a story about NK getting (and losing) an extra internet connection besides its single one to china
[12:14:28] <Bytram> I tried it on bery and it said that 'show' was not installed
[12:14:52] <cmn32480> got same on exec's box
[12:14:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, dunno where you got that command from

[12:19:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, right, show is a cisco thing
[12:19:37] <Bytram> ahhh
[12:19:47] <Bytram> here's another source: https://bgp.he.net
[12:22:56] <cmn32480> can't help... I odn't ahve any Cisco gear

[12:23:28] <Bytram> me neither.
[12:23:41] <Bytram> added the Hurricane Electric Link to the story
[12:23:56] * Bytram does not know how to read bgp announcements
[12:24:24] <Bytram> well, would love to chat, but I needs to hit the showers and get to work in just over 30 minutes.
[12:24:28] <Bytram> have a great day everyone!
[12:24:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> most servers/desktops aren't even set up to read them at all
[12:24:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> later
[12:26:03] <Bytram> I put a note on the story... worse comes to worst, I'm sure the community will let us know if the link is [not] up. =)
[12:26:04] <Bytram> laters
[12:26:40] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: btw, been thinking of ya and your project/coding hope all is proceeding well!
[12:27:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> not remotely. having to RMA the bloody hardware cause the first unit we ordered for dev work was defective.
[12:27:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm thinking that does not bode well.
[12:28:04] <Bytram> blurgh! so sorry to hear that!
[12:28:17] <Bytram> specdially if you plan to roll it out to a bunch of remote locations.
[12:28:38] <cmn32480> .me hates it when that happens
[12:28:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup
[12:29:06] <Bytram> may want to code a monitor/boot up self test to make sure everything you expect is there, is working as expected. POST, yanno?
[12:29:28] <Bytram> and it sucks to have tyo say that, but prolly for thebest in the long run, I 'spose
[12:29:32] <Bytram> ok gtg
[12:29:37] <Bytram> good luck!
[12:29:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> first flash went fine. after that 2/3 of the time the flash would fail outright or partially complete.
[12:30:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> about 30 attempts in it failed all together and doesn't even show up in dmesg when connected anymore.
[12:30:24] <cmn32480> did you let the smoke out of the chips?
[12:30:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm about to. with a hammer.

[14:46:24] <SoyGuest63805> TheMightyBuzzard: when flashing, do you have two areas for code, last-known-good and new? X failures to boot new causes a boot of last-known-good? (which requires a simple-as-possible stage-1 bootloader)
[14:47:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> no. just one.
[14:47:23] * TheMightyBuzzard is not especially interested in writing a custom bootloader
[14:47:29] <SoyGuest63805> OK, that does make the job a bit scarier.
[14:48:09] <SoyGuest63805> much more brickable, alas
[14:48:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> which is really beside the point since even the bootloader isn't working or i'd have a tty over usb to write a new bit o program code with.
[14:48:53] <SoyGuest63805> but the system comes with a ROM bootloader that can always theoretically flash a new image?
[14:49:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> in theory. you can overwrite it but i didn't.
[14:50:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> at least i never told anything to overwrite it. it appears something hosed it though or i'd still be able to write new program code to the flash storage.
[14:50:32] <SoyGuest63805> JTAG available?
[14:51:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> again, in theory. i'd have to get the tools and build a cable.
[14:51:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> but after it not taking program code properly 2/3 of the time right out of the box, i'm not inclined to say it's my fuckup.
[14:52:57] <SoyGuest63805> system vendor provided the flashing code too?
[14:53:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, standard arduino environment with vendor-provided board spec
[14:55:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> per their official documentation
[14:55:40] <SoyGuest63805> you'd expect that to be a common enough prototyping environment to be well-enough tested.
[14:56:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> i could probably rig up a jtag programmer but if it's not my bad i'm disinclined to go through the trouble. rather rma it.
[15:00:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> entire reason for buying pre-build, "industrial grade" kit was so i could just plug a usb cable into it and not have to fuck with anything but writing code.
[15:04:19] <SoyGuest63805> indeed
[15:07:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> anywho, haven't gotten a response back about rma procedures, so i'm gonna keep pounding at 4.12+ kernels trying to get one to work on my two am3 boxes here in the house. something about the old and default configs hates some bit of hardware both boxes have in common.
[15:08:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> found an arch 4.12 kernel that will boot on it though and stole its .config. bout to reboot and give the one i built with the same config a try.

[19:51:58] <Sulla> Some leaked photos on /pol/ of the hotel room showed a bunch of ARs with bumpstocks and piles of doublestack mags. Considering the amount of money the guy had I was expecting them to be automatics but maybe not
[19:52:55] <Sulla> Never used a bumpstock as I have no interest in synthetic stocks/
