asciilifeform: PeterL: he suggested (i still can't tell if seriously!) to plug them in ~series~, like christmas lights, to a high voltage line.

assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 14:34:24; mircea_popescu: lol davout while i'm the first friend of humor, or so i like to think, that two weeks tm can't stand there. it can readily be interpreted to mean forever, and that just can't be.
mircea_popescu: the ~only point i made prior to the whole "way things are done!11" explosion was, that for the price of buying extension cords for all the shitty little bricks he can make a central power source himself.
mircea_popescu: i guess he'll need to use thicker wires, but hey, if it'll make your impalement sense happy why not.
mircea_popescu: i've been trying to follow this with the huts etc but it doesn't coallesce into a something.
asciilifeform: i even brought you some pogos iirc.
mircea_popescu: "i want someone to make me a si foundry and i'll strangle anyone who even tries to make a power source!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think his plan to fight some derps doing black magic is not to squarely ignore them, but to DO THINGS to anti-magic their magic.
asciilifeform: what is being hidden, and from whom? e.g., everyone i've worked, done business with, etc. since i had a www, knew about it
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 14:46:53; BingoBoingo: I don't mind it being used where necessary, but it is still a slave name
mircea_popescu: if i ever open a brothel here, we'll have a rsa night.
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 14:46:05; mircea_popescu: (and yes in that month i can do the fucking rsa exponentiation on paper three times over.)
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-03-2016#1435981 << i will not say that this is impossible, but i would actually like to watch somebody do it ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i suspect through a massive dose of not giving a shit.
jurov: was a while to get used to it. i wonder how was BingoBoingo keeping track of his nickname when it was different every time
mircea_popescu: jurov i always wondered where it comes from.
PeterL: asciilifeform I just realized I answered your question wrong, I am not aztec, I'm good old English-American. My brother married into Aztec.
BingoBoingo: But when you drink in the manner I am inclined to you gotta have something you can pronounce
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i don't use aliases even in promiscuity. everyone's "vampyre lord" and "celeste" and what the fuck not, i'm mircea popescu
mircea_popescu: "hi, i'm papalexandrorghios bingoboingoski"
BingoBoingo: But Back when I did the bar thing I'd use different names at each bar generally
mircea_popescu: PeterL i knew a guy who would introduce himself to half drunk british roses as "hi, my name's pizda ma-tii!"
BingoBoingo: <PeterL> when you meet a girl at the bar, do you introduce yourself "Hi, I'm BingoBoingo"? << It's an occasion to use the legacy identfier
PeterL: when you meet a girl at the bar, do you introduce yourself "Hi, I'm BingoBoingo"?
BingoBoingo: I don't mind it being used where necessary, but it is still a slave name ☟︎
danielpbarron: well i'd rather not list your blog at all if the requirement is to not use your name
mircea_popescu: (and yes in that month i can do the fucking rsa exponentiation on paper three times over.) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i had the pleasure of a coupla of such nonsense back in the day.
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 12:20:36; asciilifeform: also i would like to watch mp or anyone actually ~do~ the 'hand verify' thing.
mircea_popescu: i always thought "the path to destruction is broad" just gave measure of the argot prescience of the king james bible and it really means "the path to destruction is woman".
PeterL: BingoBoingo I think you nailed it, no more argument needed to vilify obeasts
mircea_popescu: i must say i'm pretty impressed with this darkcoin thing and with the chinese govt generally. a) no idiotic derpage a la "bitlicense" ; b) actually prosecute scammers.
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: Or do I need a different species of scholarship for that
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well If I really am a sunni I gotta take from the Jews and the Christians, because that's how history works
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Until I finish a religious tract Imma just treat satisfying the will of the gods as alternately a question of conduct and business
BingoBoingo: solrodar: I'm not necessarily suggesting that
mircea_popescu: lol davout while i'm the first friend of humor, or so i like to think, that two weeks tm can't stand there. it can readily be interpreted to mean forever, and that just can't be. ☟︎
BingoBoingo: solrodar: I'm suggesting it as a rabbit hole to read moar on to understand how complex the matter of claims is, not strictly legally but morally
mircea_popescu: and yes, I don't intend to follow fiat practice in THIS particular respect : that it's always willing to add complexity for the sake of satisfying fee-fees.
mircea_popescu: solrodar i am not entertaining your concepts of "non-urgent", and so i won't be showing anything about them.
solrodar: I deeply apologize
BingoBoingo: <solrodar> yes, so I'm simply saying that the receiver's contract should not presume any particular classification << The reciever may end up rejecting some claims by suppliers, but the MUST be *considered* first
solrodar: yes, so I'm simply saying that the receiver's contract should not presume any particular classification
mircea_popescu: and if i'm reading this correctly there may well be death sentences ?
mircea_popescu: and 2. IF you want to argue against something i said, do yourself the favour and BRING VERY GOOD ARGUMENTS. because your own personal word will count for nothing much, and you'll just make a clown out of yourself.
solrodar: I have only 0.2 BTC of outstanding bets, so this isn't really a conflict of interest for me
solrodar: yes, and I don't see where you responded to that point
solrodar: but as I said, if the only argument is "receiver still has to work", then it only applies to claims the receiver must pay in order to do his work
solrodar: I agree
mircea_popescu: you wanna argue against something i said, do yourself and especially your posterity the favour of coming with eighteen armored divisions.
mircea_popescu: and in general this inept "mp said something ; i said something else because i'm just as much a X as mp" is the font of ineptitude.
solrodar: I suppose that could be read as not being an ordered list
davout: solrodar: which is why i haven't written it in stone, in case you did not notice
solrodar: true, but I would suggest it not be written in stone at this stage
nubbins`: <+solrodar>but before it gets written into a contract I want to question why we're presuming that bills are more senior than bettor funds << i want to question why you used "we"
mircea_popescu: "i just disproved a general consideration by my misinterpretation of a particular" you say ?
assbot: /biz/ - After missing the Eth train, I just took out a $10 - Business & Finance - 4chan ... ( http://bit.ly/258IIlZ )
shinohai: http://boards.4chan.org/biz/thread/1145795/after-missing-the-eth-train-i-just-took-out-a <<< nice
BingoBoingo: <jurov> even batteries are advised not to be massively serially connected, you know << Well, I imagined massively parallel FeNi banks. linked to get target voltages. Abuse however just so long as you remember to water them.
solrodar: but before it gets written into a contract I want to question why we're presuming that bills are more senior than bettor funds
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-03-2016#1435794 << ftr i utterly fail to grasp how he made this leap ☝︎
asciilifeform: also i would like to watch mp or anyone actually ~do~ the 'hand verify' thing. ☟︎
BingoBoingo: jurov: Sorry, I've added a note http://qntra.net/2016/03/eu-marching-towards-helicopter-money-as-other-manipulations-are-exhausted/#comment-48935

mircea_popescu: i don't credit the "sybils quam sybils" theory.
BingoBoingo: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-03-2016#1435757<< Also me, I needed to pick a pronoun and feminism'd it ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 02:18:42; asciilifeform: 'I did fight things out in court. It just occurred in secret, and while a proper description would require the use of vulgarity, I'll summarize by saying I was railroaded. The length of time between when I received the PRTT order, and when I was found in contempt (ex parte) was about 5 weeks. For comparison the /median /time between filing and disposition of a civil contempt charge in federal court du
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435633 << i don't use heretic conventions. /n ftw. ☝︎
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: i should further clarify that 'active years' were, regardless of the farmer's age, up until about 20 years ago. the size of farms have grown exponentially of late, hand-in-hand with the increased cost of inputs and the decreased price of outputs.
ben_vulpes: i don't see how it can continue without mods and hosting on the books.
BingoBoingo: https://i.imgur.com/kX7Hyv8.jpg
BingoBoingo: I'll get around to it
asciilifeform: i can't speak for the farmers, but i would take the bull over boredom.
BingoBoingo: I imagine
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-03-2016#1435673 << i kinda wonder re: casualties of bull vs tractor ☝︎
asciilifeform: 'I did fight things out in court. It just occurred in secret, and while a proper description would require the use of vulgarity, I'll summarize by saying I was railroaded. The length of time between when I received the PRTT order, and when I was found in contempt (ex parte) was about 5 weeks. For comparison the /median /time between filing and disposition of a civil contempt charge in federal court during 2013 was 6 /months/.' ☟︎
BingoBoingo: OH I stripped out the links
punkman: jurov: I dun get it
mod6: danielpbarron: thanks for writing that up on your blog. the job is yours if you want it. i'll write up something formal and we can go from there.
asciilifeform: i.e. http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435524 ☝︎
jurov: i guess he wants to sign semantics, not syntax.
asciilifeform: and every time i try to explain to him that his notion of 'text' is ill-defined and the actual mechanics, as implemented in unix world and elsewhere, are malignantly retarded
asciilifeform: i.e. something he can cat to a line printer
asciilifeform: i propose - SANE STRUCTURE
asciilifeform: i get it, you can 'dwim' in your head, 'my eyes know how big it is' - but how does THE MACHINE know.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm going to speak at a whore's convention. will bbl.
asciilifeform: i.e. any idiot can cut off the sig and convey payload without it
mircea_popescu: i can tell you. the text and the seal in the same place.
mircea_popescu: i'm not about to give out the only workable way to make contracts since the fucking hansa
asciilifeform: i wanna sign a tarball. or gif. now what.
mircea_popescu: "fuck them, cook them and serve them to the pigs. fuck i care."
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i distinctly recall suggesting a scheme quite like this.
mircea_popescu: i will NOT take bad implementations of ANYTHING into consideration when designing anything.
mircea_popescu: hey, i'm not defending any of that.
mircea_popescu: i suppose it necessarily can be put in the header huh.
asciilifeform: which is what i've been arguing for all along.
mircea_popescu: this i can get behind.
mircea_popescu: this argument is still open. i certainly see what you mean.
