mircea_popescu: i don't think one third of present "first world" folk would pass
a rigorous sanity check as executed by 1916 mental health practitioners.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: hanbot you know, looking through it... one thing that struck me about the abundance of patently insane esl folk is, this strange, rare (from
a clinical pov) tendency to minutiously document their whatevers.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: or maybe the day BingoBoingo wanders into
a cunt and the cunt doesn't let him leave/
ben_vulpes: boeck's going to show up with all of the keys and
a backdated modulus or two now
mircea_popescu: anyway, i can't recall who's wash ro ambassador. but traditionalyl that thing's
a total rat's nest of spyppls.
mircea_popescu: fuck, 50 years ago people'd be so impressed you had
a computer at all they'd hire you. etc.
shinohai: ;;later tell mod6 I almost have bot able to accept tickets, needs
a few tweaks.
mircea_popescu: so word around the campfire is that president donald trunkduck is going to have
a turducken dinner for his wh inauguration.
shinohai: bwahaha I have
a `t` bot working mod6
mod6: i'll work on it
a bit more later.
mod6: want
a tbot sneak peak?
BingoBoingo: Too early to tell, but it only too MPEx what,
a month of beta then 30 BTC, 50 BTC, moon?
mircea_popescu: i guess one thing here is, maybe qntra should have
a lexicon ?
BingoBoingo: Perhaps not, I'll replace it with
a better article from Trilema
mircea_popescu: "From Ernst Katlenbrunner to Preet Bharara,
a history of SS Police and Policing"
mircea_popescu: phf for THAT kind of pairing, you can't beat irc pairing. it's, in
a sense, what i do all day, let "weaker" (ie, more specialised) pairs drive, i got
a whole raft of 'em.
mircea_popescu: i think i may even do it that way deliberately - make it
a girls only corporation and fu. just to bother teh ustards.
mod6: we'll have to put
a flag in here so I can give the details later when I go to next_place. XXX
phf: basically when
a weaker pair is driving you can whip her into doing it right, otherwise she's just sitting there giving "useful" advice
mircea_popescu: mod6> but since like... at least mid-feb,
a lady has been watching my every move. << o no, got lady cat ?!
mod6: and we're moving too fast to wait for someone to wait for
a PR, respond in there and then refactor/rearchitect and update PR
mod6: we're writing
a lot of the stuff together so architecture decisions aren't "made in
a silo"
mod6: but most of it is like talking through
a bunch of shit.
mod6: i've been architecting
a performance framework
mod6: but since like... at least mid-feb,
a lady has been watching my every move.
mod6: worked downtown for
a half-day today, wfh rest of day.
mircea_popescu: the notion that the us would be derping at bnr is beyond fucking lulzy, what's next,
a critique of bach by j. timberfake ?
mircea_popescu: "us" can by and large get fucked, they don't have nor had since perhaps morgenthau anyone in
a central bank seat that can compare to romania's.
mircea_popescu: for
a second there i thought alf moved on to reading bitcointalk for lack of fishfapping material.
davout: because obviously DNS implementations won't let you use
a value that's more than 0XFF chars long
BingoBoingo: Aw, qntra appears DDoS'd now just when I am considering
a piece on the increase in young Muricans with ischemic brain damage
a111: Logged on 2016-05-12 17:23 shinohai: trinque: how do i insert
a line break? <br> doesn't work it seems.
mircea_popescu: i am not so convinced the past 60 years made the us any less of
a culturally impoverished zimbabwe. it's still not
a nation, nor much of
a country. it doesn't even make much of
a hotel, used to be
a sort of cote d'azur, now more like jamaica.
mircea_popescu: it stands then to reason to say that classification is more of
a hr/personnel retention tool than
a opsec instrument.
mircea_popescu: = "opportunity cost" + "self-actualisation value", and since the sort of idiots that actually take jobs with the nsa have very simple "self actualisation" functions, which often evaluate to "be in
a place where things are called 'classified'", then this necessarily is
a +.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform to look at it from
a different perspective : attaching the attribute "classified" to
a specified item has
a number of effects on the world, some of which can have associated values that are computable. one such example is : that it triggers interest from the enemy, however defined. this is clearly
a -. another one such example is : that it makes the workforce feel more important. since compensation always has to
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform goes right back to the whole "gestapo couldn't keep abreast of all the phonecalls from the "innocent public" they kept receiving". just like policeman rarely works there as
a job, and generally works there as
a hedge against his own inferiority complexes, derps working for nsa work there mostly for to be working there.
mircea_popescu: PeterL even if they do, if you can't use capital more productively than 5%
a year it's time to go back to school.
trinque: so I'll be digging for
a minute
shinohai: trinque: how do i insert
a line break? <br> doesn't work it seems.
☟︎ PeterL: so, I bought
a house, I figured it is
a good time to lock up
a loan at 3.5% interest for 30 years
shinohai: The bot section will need
a whole new writeup though, since everything was merged into deedbot so gotta get
a list of all those features compiled.
shinohai: Trying to get all that stuff mioved over to
a site we control. I'm actually liking clwiki now, thanks for providing it!
mircea_popescu: also, please don't refer to tmsr as "
a community". it is not "
a community", it is your liege.
☟︎ luke-jr: asciilifeform: to show the industry that
a hardfork and consensus is
a possible thing
luke-jr: so we're discussing whether we can get consensus for
a hardfork with the community here
phf: but after shuffling "assembly" and "harness" papers for two days i know for
a fact that some dedicated japanese man will be able to lovingly carve an smbx replica as his chosen otaku hobby
phf: and since asciilifeform is
a lispm owner i don't see particularly reason why s.nsa shouldn't have access to it
phf: the intended purpose is to help lispm owners maintain systems on their own since the number of available parts is basically two stables in
a barn and those are going to the usual suspects
phf: while the bulk is software,
a dwindling part of it is repairs and console upkeep
shinohai: I managed to make my own gentoo livecd
a few weeks ago ... I used the roll-your-own initramfs thing like jurov posted earlier
a111: Logged on 2016-05-12 13:09 mircea_popescu: jurov> funny that I can't remember any concrete source how I learned that stuff. it somehow accreted <<< thinking about it i dun think
a proper source exists, outside of carder forums or w/e equiv.

☟︎ indoor_jellyfish: without such
a document, the masamune replication will get done, but it'll take
a while..
indoor_jellyfish: I don't really understand how the C linker or the rest of the linux "toolkit" works (eg, chroot) and
a detailed explanation of how I would arrange
a set of files + binaries, bundle them and generate
a minimal bootable USB would go
a long way.
mod6: "
A republic, if you can keep it"
mod6: 'tis the difference between
a republic that people want to be
a part of and want to work, and an ad-hoc gaggle of people "doing stuff"
shinohai: I've been lurking here almost
a year now, good things happen here that just do not happen elsewhere.
mod6: thanks for your input here, i think it takes
a simple idea and scales it up nice.
mircea_popescu recalls the humble beginnings when we came up with the nutty idea of having
a bot do voicing in chan. that was never going to work.
mod6: i think it's
a fine idea, Sir.
mircea_popescu: truth be told, even without permissioning it'd be pretty useful. that's more like
a sort of you know, experimental wunderwaffen division, why not ask for things, see what happens.
mircea_popescu: whereas $bot deedbot me would result in
a dump of ticketlist for deedbot encrypted to my key that's of level world and wot and me.
mircea_popescu: $tbot btcbase wot would result in
a dump of the ticketlist for btcbase encrypted to my key that's of level world and level wot.
mod6: yeah, that part will be
a huge pain.
mircea_popescu: however,
a major point of collaboration imo, would be if everyone who runs bots (ie, deedbot, yours putatively, etc) ALSO keep logs, and provide phf with passive redundancy
☟︎ mircea_popescu: truth is by now i'm not even sure exactly how many distinct projects we're managing, but it's over
a dozen, and will only keep growing. gotta import some management tools into all this, casual worked long enough
mod6: sounds great to me. i was just talking about stripping down atcbot and reusing the skeleton to build
a bot for this.
mircea_popescu: mod6 how about if there was
a ticket bot ; and we had
a website,
a la deedbot.org, where tickets could be seen ; and we had acess control based on pgp, so that either world, lordship, or specified people can see
a particular ticket set ?
mod6: when you're done adding/editing or deleteing
a ticket, just print them if you wish `./t.pl tickets.txt p`
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> hey mod6 if you have time today to hold my hand with your T, ima move the whole "hey x plox y" thing over. << hi! i should be available in
a few hours for sure.
davout:
a dumb bot could place wagers on this kind of stuff
davout: i fail to see how this kind of proposition makes any sense in
a "pari mutuel" context
davout: guess coming from phuctor grants
a few bonus points eh
fromphuctor: still how do u defend yourself from MitM attacks without
a signede cert ?
