diana_coman: eh, ~anyone stuck in a similar situation would learn it quite
as fast; and that "easily" means mum talking like crazy all the time, lol
mircea_popescu: invariably the retort comes
as "sucks to be on the phone, huh", for which they are utterly unprepared. notwithstanding six-figure "education debt" in each to the last one.
mircea_popescu: you know that about 1/3 of responsens my bot gets come
as "what ?" which generally gets ignored, and generally forms during the day in the more literate complaint of "i can't read the subject line", often with culprit-identification bolted on the side : "~IT~ cuts it off". what the fuyck is this "it" ?
mircea_popescu: do you know they literally lack the werewithal,
as 20something yos, supposedly capable of employment and child rearing, to a) identify the problem ; b) identify the solution ; c) put boards into a mobo and hook it all up ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform imo this is not even the wrong way ; will not only significantly cheapen our end, but ~all of the enemy hardware will ahve to be replaced, at capital costs far exceeding its current capacities (projected to diminish in the future
as they may be)
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: c) then it changes,
as it always does ; and d) they try an' fix it.
mircea_popescu: precisely same
as to the "surprised by wealth" moron. sitting somewhere in a peculiar hovel hoping people from the internet will come anf fix his ac.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes. the exact same "has happened" to her
as to this other one.
mircea_popescu: very much in the vein of
http://btcbase.org/log/2014-08-14#795515 : NONE, and i mean it : not a single FUCKING ONE of these "government-sponsored oligarchs" have a penny to their name. every single one "powerful" of the democracy-socialism, be they a senator, a general, a "famous person", a "journalist", WHATHEVER they may be, made out, at all. not like bandits, not like anythings, they're
as poor
as church mice.
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: "These days I work
as a change activist, mounting summits for world leaders and serving
as an adviser to startups and entrepreneurs looking to better the planet. "

as far
as uneducated, "hard" ustardian kids were concerned, the dilemma stood between stories of killing injuns and "building a civilisation out of a wilderness" by then two generations expired, or else ~kids just like them actually doing it~, driving motorcycles through the endless dusts of the middle earth and erecting oil pumping metropolises across the siberia.
BingoBoingo:
As far
as I can tell anti-sex work activism here is for the loser boys and girls during those two years between discovered they are wanted for sex and discovering they enjoy the sex too
mircea_popescu: there was ~a very good reason~ for mccarthyism,
as it turns out, specifically this fear among the warren buffett class of the period that the kids are just about going to desert them.

as prepayment for future auctions ?
mircea_popescu: and also, you wanna pay me the extra back in ecu in eurloa or keep it on books

☟︎ mircea_popescu: trinque lobbes in other weird : <deedbot> Invoiced mircea_popescu 0.00010742 ; which i paid, and which shows in ledger
as me having paid him 00100800.
mircea_popescu: the other class, is that specific statements, such
as the above, "item may not manage its own power" had opportunity to be stated.
mircea_popescu: and along these lines, i'll dispute your ~0 to show for it. there's two classes of (very important!) things to show for it. one class is that now when i tell amstan he's the repugnant son of a stupid whore, there's loglines backing it up ; and when we discuss google
as an instrument of evil, also.
mircea_popescu: maybe there's a cut in between. anyway,
as a matter of principle -- laptop may not manage its own power.
mircea_popescu: no more of this "item manages its own power". it's insanity, and moreover very much of the same feather
as "usg manages its own currency"
phf: asciilifeform: right, and
as far
as we know right now cr50 doesn't have a remote/wifi access component. if it can't be wholly removed, maybe it can be "cut" (not necessarily by literally cutting the wire, but the direction of closing the plug hole)
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> lol i pictured BingoBoingo's flat
as a sort of partizan lair, chairs made from ammo crates etc << Eventually.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i'm spending a bit of time keeping her from walking across a highway, if that counts
as "walking on you"
ben_vulpes: i will do
as right by pizarro
as i can; i will continue to do what i can. i must deliver notice that pizarro needs to find additional help.
mircea_popescu: and i am including here highschool garage bands, because sure
as fuck nobody in employment gets 0day notice.
mod6: I'll stand in
as acting manager for the time being, but now begins the official search for a new pizarro manager. Please let us know if interested in the role.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how about the implict model we kept implicitly discussing, "program can ask for memory chunks, os will treat all writes to allocated memory
as mod allocated size".
a111: Logged on 2017-01-03 20:34 mircea_popescu: all three queues to be implemented
as ring buffers of user specified size.
mircea_popescu: esthlos no rush anyway,
as one grows it drives the other
mircea_popescu: this may end up
as a sort of modified/improved version of Framedragger_ 's original multi-line log select
mircea_popescu: certainly
as far
as i recall one of the "nutty" things alf said early on that signalled him away from the crowd to my eye.
phf: i treat the x60 battery purely
as a ups, which yes makes it pretty useless for travel. can break it out on amtrak or at a hotel that's pretty much it
phf: oh i figured
as much, but at least i had a chance to organize the workspace. download relevant bits, line up a bunch of discussion pages with mentions of mysterious utilities that take obscure flags
mircea_popescu: venezuela's problem is that shitty oil, kinda ~same
as fracking by products. but still worth some money.
mircea_popescu: more. i think it started
as a warrant officer wank/fanfic in the 70s.
mircea_popescu: most people prefer a designated implement so
as to not threaten kid with themselves.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-14 19:26 mircea_popescu: and of course
as women are the social scar tissue, this is going to end up with yet another "oh, it's THEIR fault!!!", like every historical case to date.
mircea_popescu: "the rapid onset inconceivable", here
as everywhere the sure witness of overwroughgt imbecility.
mircea_popescu:
as the man said, "If you would have asked me to write about this subject ten years ago, you could have
as easily been asking me to write in hieroglyphics, charting the constellation of our galaxy. Unfortunately, "
mircea_popescu: i kid you not, unbelievable
as it may sound, it was their idea.
mircea_popescu: anyway, " You can hear the depth of the remaining scar in his voice
as he spoke."
mircea_popescu: "I do not come to you
as an angry and jealous husband. I come to you
as a man, who, after consulting with over twenty male friends in my age group (35 to 50), discovered that almost all of them have experienced the same problem."
lobbes: what do you mean by tracking?
as in it alerts poster if movement?
mircea_popescu: i dunno if you appreciate this, at all, but consider : i follow fetlife for ~purely private~ reasons. on my own time, off my own money, for the lulz/orgasms of my own girls, and so on. yet i've published multiple articles including summaries, schematics, various discussions, on it goes. on the other hand, a bunch of you guys have been involved in a very comparable effort for about
as long, and if tomorrow you put out ten thou
ben_vulpes: i suspect that the tidal wave of people who only understand poking buttons has drowned out the tiny sample of people who even know how to work ftp, and are being 'served' (
as the main course, naturally) by facebook/wix etc
mircea_popescu: teh republic needs a whole bunch of managers,
as it turns out.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you can reliably distinguish philologist from plain romanian,
as the latter's not going to be able to produce the simple perfect form for the "a coace" verb.\
mircea_popescu: conjunctive ("eu sa fac") vs putative ("eu
as face") and perfect putative (eu
as fi facut).
mircea_popescu: and
as far
as can be discerned, the only chumps in an internal state compatible with de-chumpifying are in the bdsm scene. but i'd ~love~ to hear of others.
mircea_popescu: note the "
as an X" device, because indeed nothing's quite
as juicy
as self0irony
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey,
as a scientist i have left all biases behind!
mod6: Just, sub-slut does
as commanded. Or is not a sub-slut.
mircea_popescu: yet from the other hand,
as true
as the foregoing may well be, the question "and what's one do to, live in the bubble he was born and die there also ?" stands, of course.
mircea_popescu: consider this comes from someone who's systematically owned okcupid&every other "dating" "platform", askfm, reddit etc -- every other "social media" platform, who was doing put-flyers-on-posts ~a decade ago~ and just
as systematically and so on.
mircea_popescu: mod6 honestly, if i thought any of this is worth doing i'd do it. from actual experience and
as far
as i can myself see so far, besides fetlife there's no utility in the fiat bubble-makers.
mircea_popescu: ps. there is no such thing
as "serbian" or "croatian" language. they both speak the same shitfuck.
phf is actually going to HOPE, which was always a parody of a "hacker culture", coming
as it is from 2600 circles, but at it's in new york and it's an opportunity to spend time with my new york friends. last time i was at HOPE that was 2010 or so, when the whole theme was g.w.bush
as 1984/hitler. at least hope delivers in lulz department. wozniak is going to be there, signing apple ii's or whatever.
mircea_popescu: still in use, though, somehow,
as someone actually loaded trilema on one.
mircea_popescu: "represents a major upgrade of our system and is,
as far
as we are aware, the only system of it's type that's been developed on RISC OS." << read one line, run into one spelling error. this bodes well for the LOC.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-05 00:46 asciilifeform: i dun recall if i mentioned :
as of coupla wks ago, no moar 'emerge portage' on asciilifeform's-ban-masks gentoo boxen : it now ~demands~ gpg2 turd.
