00:22 <@Dagmar> Samsung upcycling program
00:22 <@Dagmar> Galaxy S3's can be had for stupid cheap now
00:23 <@Dagmar> That seems to be the cheapest route through the hardware problem
00:24 <@Dagmar> Between them explicitly telling people how to just install Linux on them, and that existing codebase... There's quite a few emulators you could pick from
00:25 <@Dagmar> Just a matter of compiling them for ARM
00:48 < ezelkow1[m]> interesting
00:48 < ezelkow1[m]> not a bad option
00:49 < ezelkow1[m]> cause yea the only thing i came up with are literally handhelds using the same hardware of a dingoo from 8-10 years ago when i owned one of those
00:50 < ezelkow1[m]> and still selling them for 50$+, and they run just about as good now as they did then, which is iffy. They are even still using the hacked up kernel I helped work on way back then to get linux going on them, apparently ~6mo ago someone finally took up the mantle to get them moved to a 3.x kernel and it went nowhere
00:56 < ezelkow1[m]> but for ~80 for even a supposed brand new one the s3 is a damn good option

03:42 <@Dagmar> There's a kernel on it, a shell, and sshd.  From where I sit that's about 98% of the work
03:47 <@Dagmar> talx: If you mounted two things to the same mountpoint, nothing breaks.

11:25 < aestetix> wait
11:25 < aestetix> did someone actually write voting software that uses the blockchain?
11:35 < xray> Not that I'm aware of.
11:36 < xray> It seems to be a common perception that adding block chain to something makes it super secure and powerful . . . not.
11:53 < aestetix> It seems like using the blockchain for something is the opposite of making it secret

11:57 <@Corydon76_> It seems like adding blockchain to something is a good way to trick investors out of their money.
11:58 <@Corydon76_> Blockchain handwaving!  Much good.  Need money!
12:54 < xray> Corydon76_: exactly. There have been vendors that put blockchain on their product packaging that has nothing to do with the product. I can't find the reference but it was something like breakfast creal with "blockchain"
12:55 < xray> not that they aren't trying to add blockchain to the food industry. https://www.forbes.com/sites/samantharadocchia/2018/04/26/3-innovative-ways-blockchain-will-build-trust-in-the-food-industry/#1393a3982afc

12:55 < xray> blockchain is a cryptographic chain of custody
12:56 < xray> what I don't get is how they can tie a crypto hash to a physical item that prevents substitution
13:16 <@Corydon76_> They can, if the physical item is connected to the cloud.  But a solid chunk of metal?  No.
13:18 <@Corydon76_> Then again, how do you verify that an electronic device is actually connected to the right cloud and isn't just programmed to flash lights a particular way?

14:24 <@dasunt> It's almost as if security is hard.
14:34 <@Dagmar> That would be why Microsoft thinks it's okay to do their own Ethereum blockchain, but without requiring POS, becasue "all stakeholders can be trusted"
14:34 <@Dagmar> ...or PoW for that matter
14:35 <@Dagmar> Pretty much the most insane thing I've read this week
14:35 <@Dagmar> I'm like, what's to stop an embezzler from simply submitting whatever block updates they want to?
15:20 <@dasunt> Magic.
15:21 <@dasunt> Speaking of Microsoft stupidity, why does "Get-Mailbox" have an optional "-ResultSize Unlimited" argument?
15:22 <@dasunt> By default, it returns 1,000 results.
