danielpbarron: he does not expect a large following, and even prays to NOT be rich
trinque concedes it's a bias of his own, left the church young on the basis of "magic book didn't prevent lying shitbags from infecting the magic book building"
mircea_popescu: in the other sense.
danielpbarron: work in what sense? he cares only about the Bible. still true today as it was then
mircea_popescu: trinque, this is a difficult point to delve into, so i'll just concede it for expediency.
trinque: yeah, I'd say he probably already collected on the order of as many "actual christians" as could be found, even if the bar you're using is literacy
mircea_popescu: and it won't work for you. not just because you're late to the game, they're about to put out the lights. it wouldn't have worked for you in the 90s, only, "surprised by wealth" half-stories & assorted gargle notwithstanding.
mircea_popescu: but a word to the wise : all the details aside, dear kids who dream of "revolutionizing" and "entrepreneur culture" and so on and so forth generally "usa-usa-rarara-techblabla" : it did not work for david fish, EVEN IN THE NINETIES.
mircea_popescu exposed the hand because danielpbarron doth have a knack for ferreting out interesting cases, so a sort of "here you go in exchange".
mircea_popescu: the reasonable expectation is that he'd have descended into madness by now ; which is the root impetuus of why the discussion even took place. "i wonder how the hell this guy hasn't shot anyone".
mircea_popescu: but anyway, the intricate details of the history of the interaction between him and that behemoth of inanity are literally worth the study. very clear cut teardrop diamond of issues surroundant male inheritance in pantsuitland.
mircea_popescu: if he's putting up an act it's like the most disciplined, dedicated acting i've seen.
mircea_popescu: 5. fast forward TWO DECADES. the guy lives with a small group in nature's own poverty in rural ok, then 5.a. refuses ~7 grand windfall on principle grounds but 5.b. does actually show up, ie, his refusal isn't the common "nyah nyah nyah can't hear anything" sort.
mircea_popescu: 4. he spent some time wrangling around the edges of this, words were exchanged, on the solid footing of complete misunderstanding : on one hand, "i am cool therefore wtf" ; on the other hand "dude, we're in the business of frantic activity as a cover for impotence, wtf is wrong with you".
mircea_popescu: 3. darwin fish spent a decade, up until macarthur was ~50, in that church (after some other wrangling, mormons, whatever). then suddenly, as he himself reached 30, there was a major "time for my own church" moment. except, of course, nobody gave HIM the bn-dollar moneymaker. any they even told him why : he's way the fuck too cool for it, or as joe pesci put it, "that was the last fucking time...." ☟︎
mircea_popescu: 2. this item went through 4-year leadership until announted the current head (a certain macarthur fellow). he was 30ish at the time (and is 80ish now).
mircea_popescu: tail forever).
mircea_popescu: 1. there's a large, seinfeld-style (why did that guy make a bn ? was it because he was funny, sigma funny != sigma money ? or was it becauyse he put all his effort into powerwashing any "controversial" anything from everything about him, sigma pantsuit ~= sigma money ?) church in socal ("grace community church"), like ten thousand others all over the us ("new religion revival or w/e the fuck, protestand heresysnake eating its
mircea_popescu: trinque, "go to church" doesn't begin to describe it. here's the story as condensed by intel : ☟︎
trinque: if usglandia were populated with these christians rather than the others, it'd be *far* more tolerable. I've always gotten along with them, because the skull contents tend to be orderly, even if they originate at "because the book"
trinque: pretty great name for a pastor though. ☟︎
trinque: danielpbarron: you go to Darwin_Fish's church? doesn't seem like a half-bad guy.
mircea_popescu: aand in today's cogitations, "all machines are milling machines -- some self-milling, some not entirely". ☟︎
mircea_popescu: douchebag, i hear somebody fucked his server while he was setting up raids and stuff. so let's all go have an ice slush smoothie and unroll the log back to theology.
douchebag: I know, I haven't had any girls pm you since you told me to last time. I just figured I would mention that the bot was behaving strangely for her incase that was an issue you'd be interested in
trinque: nah, the actual withdrawals are one more boop of a qr gun.
mircea_popescu: trinque, should i turn it off ? too much load ?
mircea_popescu: tsk tsk.
trinque: might as well say now, the next cunt that pm's me over this is getting a week added to her withdrawal
mircea_popescu: anyway, if it accepted the reg...
mircea_popescu: have you been through a few passes of this i take it ? :D
trinque: so then I go find out what she fucked up about her key, and so on.
mircea_popescu: he may also have a point, seeing how they're both in the same situation, and it behaves differently.
trinque: sure, and he did that
mircea_popescu: trinque, i can imagine what it's like for him at the other end though, lol.
douchebag: I was just wondering because for CindyB it at least gives a proper gpg message to decrypt
trinque: douchebag: thing works, do not ping me for tech support for impatient crackheads.
mircea_popescu: yeah me too.
Darwin_Fish: Thanks. May the Lord give you all His understanding (Pro 2:1-6).
mircea_popescu: StephanieCx, i'm batching these, so a whole set is going to go out every few hours.
douchebag: hey trinque, that is occuring when she tries to check her balance
mircea_popescu: Darwin_Fish, have a great time!
ben_vulpes: yeah what trinque said
ben_vulpes: "application binary interface" changed radically during that time, but it won't bother you because buildroot has its own gcc
Darwin_Fish: If that is all, I will be leaving. Thanks for the discourse.
trinque: the build process itself does that.
nodehelp: or it's easier to install an older distro?
nodehelp: that's ok that the system isn't touched, but on thebitcoin.foundation site is specified to use a 4.x of gcc g++, can i ask if there is an easy way to downgrade gcc 6 to 4?
ben_vulpes: also register a nick and key so that glory can properly accrue
mircea_popescu: nodehelp, what ben_vulpes said ; it doesn't use the system much.
ben_vulpes: nodehelp: it builds in its own tiny linux environment, 'buildroot', you might be missing one of the few tools necessary to get/verify/build buildroot itself on a gentoo or an ubuntu but probably not
nodehelp: i've gcc 6 on this debian 9, i see on the instruction that gcc 4.x is needed
mircea_popescu: i had it working on sarge, which is why "old debian", not that i expect you can find one.
douchebag: I'm thinking more of entertainment value
mircea_popescu: nodehelp, pretty much everything it was tired on, from ubuntu to old debian.
nodehelp: is there a distro where trb generally 100% works on the first time?
douchebag: if you pay extra i can get these whores to write wherever
mircea_popescu: nodehelp, Darwin_Fish, consider making a rsa key and registering it with deedbot, then you can self voice rather than having to do this every half hour.
trinque: when we get to meth witches from crackheads, at least make 'em do the pen scribble on the forehead
Darwin_Fish: oh, images of tits?
StephanieCx: dont tattoo lovers names
mircea_popescu: Darwin_Fish, you gotta look at the images for tyhe comment to make sense.
mircea_popescu: StephanieCx, that's how it always works huh.
Darwin_Fish: Bobby? I am not well educated on the Kaballah
Darwin_Fish: Except, I think it was more like 1600, historically speaking
mircea_popescu: lol check out the kaballah. also, who's bobby ?
Darwin_Fish: I can't say you are wrong on that
Darwin_Fish: Yet, "That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun." (Ecc 1:9 NKJ)
Darwin_Fish: I think I get the general point. "Terrorist" has become quite the catch all word and word used to criminalize a person or org.
CindyB: i had to rewrite
CindyB: I messed up writing it the first time rly hard 2 write it backwards
nodehelp: but if is not intended, what i should use on my laptop to use bitcoin in a non bloated way?
mircea_popescu: there's a very clear difference between those who talk to webserver via curl and those who use browser.
mircea_popescu: nodehelp, here's something to explain to you why cli wins and it's worth your time to spend the time on it : http://trilema.com/2015/what-amused-me-today/
mircea_popescu: consider also that especioally b is problematic as trb isn';t ~really~ intended to be used in a home environment ; and racked servers may not provide your video whatever.
nodehelp: ok, i'm not confortable with cli but if is the price required i'm in
mircea_popescu: afaik trb comes cli only ; you can add a gui but a) you'd have to write it and b) it'd necessarily introduce dependencies.
nodehelp: can i also ask: if i want to use trb i can only do it by commandline via bitcoind or there is a way to add a gui?
mircea_popescu doesn't presently recall if this is the case.
mircea_popescu: oh oh. nodehelp if you also have a witness chain in there it may well be 15gb.
nodehelp: mircea_popescu: i know but there are various, i was too lazy to open everyone and make a sum
mircea_popescu: or you mean ~all of the deeds~ ?
mircea_popescu: nodehelp, it's 105mb, i toldja
mircea_popescu: Darwin_Fish, another advantage of having a blog is that you don't have to type everything by hand all the time. meet new people, have ready library of explanations and references. i find it QUITE empowering.
nodehelp: trinque: can I just ask if the dl of the deeds is more or less 1GB?
Darwin_Fish: ok, thanks. I'll read it
nodehelp: trinque: ok, now the speed for some unknow reasons has raised up
Darwin_Fish: mircea - why do you call yourselves a terrorists org?
trinque: lol, that it does.
mircea_popescu: douchebag, a well. we're giving them the word of cryptogod. that they scatter it... well... experimentally verifies the prophecies.
douchebag: but they're crackheads, they just want it straight to an exchange
zx2c4: mircea_popescu: so if the consulting demands suddenly disappeared forever, im quite sure great things would come
douchebag: I make them Electrum wallets which is a proper address
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron, he's evidently herding the kittens. but then again...
trinque: they take them from the 1addy and then do the idiocy behind the curtain
zx2c4: mircea_popescu: sure i can save a little. but the point is that the more i hustle consulting, the less time i have for making more valuable contributions to the world, like developing new crypto
mircea_popescu: trinque, sad indeed. hey douchebag i thought you were gonna get them propper 1addy ?
trinque: here's the other sad thing; these cunts are taking the coin and throwing them into 3-addys and segwit, even.
mircea_popescu: zx2c4, it doesn't pay enough to save ? i made more money than i knew what to do with during my stint.
danielpbarron: suspicious timing, but then i'm a bit of a cynic
