asciilifeform: and if it becomes an issue, i'll throttle the output on my end. (and some time quite soon i will be putting a series of db tweaks in, as recommended by various folx here)
asciilifeform: features you'd like in a friend, a foe, a spouse or an employee already built-in, while computer hardware has a certain gap to fill in this department.'
asciilifeform: 'It is my opinion that the fans of this family of hardware/vaporware, consistent advocates of The New Age of Computing, have serious AI problems. Here's a sample quote on cellular automata: "I guess they really are like us." Well, if you want to build a computing device in order to have a relationship with it, maybe a cellular automaton will do the trick. Although I'd recommend to first check the fine selection of Homo Sapiens we have
asciilifeform: but 'tmsr has no friends but its army and navy' or how did it go.
asciilifeform: at any rate i did not say d00d is enemy. only 'not friend.'
asciilifeform: which was 100% of my complaint really.
asciilifeform: granted that i do not know, if he left, if he stayed, what role he played. at least partly because d00d is not in the wot! and never speaks in the forum.
asciilifeform: but the perpetrator was still no friend.
asciilifeform: and granted if this had not happened, i probably would not have gotten off arse and rewritten the thing, and it would be ~useless nao.
asciilifeform: but you're missing a letter between c and d, which is where the hoster found out about the particular weakness and started unplugging the box.
asciilifeform: !~later tell gabriel_laddel_p didja ever write down publicly what it was precisely that you did to clim ~other~ than to carve your initials into its flesh ?
asciilifeform: and since he's asleep i will predict what he would say, 'stfu, the perfume smells great, even if it is exactly same one you smelled decade ago without me, and i'll get the bubonic plague underneath out later!'
asciilifeform: (i will admit that until watching the film i held out hope that g_l ACTUALLY fixed the thing. but turns out -- no dice.)
asciilifeform: i can still WATCH the fucking scrollbars draw.
asciilifeform: apparently nothing has changed since last saw clim !
asciilifeform: it is especially entertaining to asciilifeform that this was brought up, because in so far as i can tell the entire masamune thing is precisely an instance thereof, in its domain.
asciilifeform: for non-usaschwitzinmates, who have nfi what gabriel_laddel_p was on about: the medieval idiocy of hygiene-via-parfumery is alive and well in this monkeystan
asciilifeform: some of the recent machines are rumoured to contain winblowz, even.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo : if/when my auto gives up the ghost, i'm getting another ~2003, and not because cheap, but because wtf omfg firmware?!☟︎
asciilifeform: (at least the thing wasn't a 'fly by wire', it remains physically possible to steer sans hydraulics, but the sudden wtf may well get you crunching under oncoming traffic or off a bridge )
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-08#1598911 << apparently while i slept in my cave, jp went down the same toilet as everybody else: honda had a ~firmware bug~ recall recently , power steering controller crashed while in motion, users instructed to reboot motherfucking auto! on roadside☝︎
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: just don't autoarchive pastes by tempvoiced folx
asciilifeform: (thread was iirc originally about a vtronic gentoo cleanup, and i noted that nobody with half a brain would sign a gig of dubious rubbish code with their naked, unvectored lordly key)
asciilifeform: and i am quite convinced now that no cleaner answer will be found.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu proposed this as a somewhat cleaner solution to the vectored-sig problem
asciilifeform: it was about folks like asciilifeform having multiple keys that are used for different things, but wot-connected as if they were people
asciilifeform: Framedragger: 'sybil' in that thread meant something rather nonstandard
asciilifeform: reminds me of the scene in b00k 'atlas shrugged' where the zillionaires in the invisible magic valley give each other gold coins when borrowing cup of sugar
asciilifeform: and yes i have nfi what is with this preoccupation with charging each other pennies for a ~0-cost pipeline
asciilifeform: nobody wants to preside over the syphilitic bordello that would result.
