asciilifeform: reminds me, i was in a train station, and everywhere there were billboards pushing 'milk of the future'(tm)(r), made --no, not from soy even -- but recycled peas.
trinque: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Clang#Clang_environments << hey you can test the glorious future today
asciilifeform: i'm almost surprised there is any gcc left in'ere
asciilifeform: trinque: the interesting part is that it comes back ~after repeated manual removal~ somehow
a111: Logged on 2018-04-06 00:29 asciilifeform: phunphakt for trinque : apparently something inside current-day portage re-package.mask's gcc <5 'for your own good' on every (?) --sync , leaving it to be unmasked manually.
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-06#1793445 << yep, they put the smoker's warning label on it ☝︎

trinque: "onoes trying to replace file that claims newer on fs when updating?"
gabriel_laddel: lobbes http://mazepath.com/uncleal/qz4.htm is why Uncle Al is known, though the rest of his work is great. There are 2-3 other pages that go along with it if you really dig
asciilifeform: ( keep in mind, this box is cheaper than mircea_popescu's cigar )
asciilifeform: hey this is 1st time i gentooated a box with no batteried clocks

gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu American Honey review, or totally unwatchable? ☟︎

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: afaik the 220 is a cheapo and plentiful rubbish box

asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: lvds i/o typically dun have antistatic diodes
gabriel_laddel: managed to kill a x220 circuit board by swapping the screen to another, identical while machine was running. is this the sort of thing to 'fry' circuitry, and as a general rule I suppose no life fire electronics around CPUs?
gabriel_laddel: beetlejuice is suffering gainful employment writing java for the time being ☟︎
asciilifeform maxed dosimeter, goes back to wurk
asciilifeform: 'This post is literally the sort of thing trigger warnings were invented for' << elsewhere in $link
asciilifeform: something ran out. at any rate i did not expect to see him return to same heathenpit
mircea_popescu: so maybe his phd / patience with the idiocy ran out.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i imagine the way that works is "about one third of the class of phds hanging about mass campuses".
asciilifeform: another interesting... character reappears in $thread , 'cousin_it' << iirc , a ru d00d, who was what passed for intellectual backbone of the lw forum until formally expelled for -- iirc -- pissing on the 'roko's basilisk' chix
mircea_popescu: actually, fuck that, i have to transalte it, willy nilly.
mircea_popescu: which exactly, so you can live from now on in the full serenity of knowing that it's perfectly possible you've been kissing my ass a number of times to date. all the best."
mircea_popescu: sadly i'm too lazy to translate http://trilema.com/2010/familia-traditionala-versus-harem-studiu-comparativ/ ; but the comments are pretty riotous. sampler : "in closing, permit me to inform you that i've taken a shit into one of those cups you drink jeebus blood from, in some church somewhere, as well as washed my cock post-ejaculation in one of those water holders somewhere in some other church. but i'm not going to mention
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: oh hey it's the 'my cunt is offended and redpillists are hereby unofficially banned from the forum' critter
asciilifeform: and of course 'Big life change ahead: in March, I, Jess, and our two cats will be renting out our London flat and moving to California’s San Francisco Bay Area for two years!'
mircea_popescu: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/WX6kWkAKsESoD4yrf/misery-pits << o look who came back from the dead, also. chick famous for "i'll sign prenup to have all my kids paternity-checked because i'm just too much of a cum dumpster to know otherwise" / being the ~only sexually active female in this coven of "polyamory", absent since the last time we heard of this whole thing.
asciilifeform: 'Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction. .... This book is essential reading for all thinking people. I’m not going to write a new review here—I think the existing reviews do it justice...' << bahahawat
asciilifeform: 'EDIT 2017-10-28: DO NOT DO THIS! Dropbox have changed their API, and Netmemo has failed to update to use the new one. I emailed the developer and got no response. Don’t use Netmemo Plus. I want a button on my Android phone that drops voice notes into my GTD inbox.'
mircea_popescu: it's really not anything but 15yo turning in wikipedia article.
mircea_popescu: i think they call this research.
mircea_popescu: this whole thing's tiny, basically the wank of ~one campus.
mircea_popescu: o look, the dgerard fellow also makes an appearance! lel.
mircea_popescu: you know, the "terribly high status male" in the googlvnoye upgradleniye lagerei.
asciilifeform: ye olde 'These old versions of toolchain packages (binutils, gcc, glibc) are no longer officially supported and are not suitable for general use. Using these packages can result in build failures (and possible breakage) for many packages, and may leave your system vulnerable to known security exploits' nonsense.
asciilifeform: phunphakt for trinque : apparently something inside current-day portage re-package.mask's gcc <5 'for your own good' on every (?) --sync , leaving it to be unmasked manually. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: supposedly these are rare. i imagine for the sort of dweebs that spew all this maculature they would be.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "unicorn" in context is the traditional soubrette : young woman eager to [sexually, and otherwise] please both master and mistress.
asciilifeform: and wtf is to be 'recruited as unicorn'
mircea_popescu: recruited as a “unicorn” by a Neurologist at a hospital in town. She abandoned me and our middle child who has Autism. She took the youngest and oldest boy and they are considered now Mitch’s children. So, excuse me if I can’t be open minded enough to understand this. I don’t. It hurts incredibly bad and I don’t understand how a doctor, with a wife and six children, could steal my wife and try to take my children."
mircea_popescu: oh, oh, look, there's even a bit of mittelamerica in there! "I came home from my tour in the US Army in the Middle East. I have only been back two months. My wife and I have three children. We have been married for ten years. I came back and Sarah had changed. Didn’t want anything to do with me. This is typical for returning Veterans so I figured it would just take time. Fast forward to now, I just discovered, she has been
mircea_popescu: they both have little rituals associated, consume information cooked a certain way FOR IT BEING THUS COOKED and not for other reasons, and so following.
mircea_popescu: but the girl who genuinely believes her little village is everything and being a dairy maid is the be all (great little novel about this, with nobleman who married dairy maid, ended up making the dutchess a... dairy) is not substantially different from the guy who thinks mercury salts will right him.
mircea_popescu: diseases are in fact the best framework for conceptualizing subcultures -- that's what they are, broken people. broken how is relatively uninteresting.
asciilifeform: then this also
asciilifeform: dunno that 'subculture' is the word. sorta like calling syphilis a subculture
mircea_popescu: basically this wikipedian wankster thing seems to be a major-ish neet subculture. evidently under the whole chems thing, or guns, or "baptist"ism / most other first echelon things. but perhaps large enough to make 2nd tier, with post-punk, petaism, and so forth. a sort of mirror-knitting subculture, i guess.
deedbot: http://trilema.com/2018/heres-what-polyamory-is-not/ << Trilema - Here's what "polyamory" is not : ☟︎
asciilifeform: ( not to be confused with futures markets )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i found this meaning out from mircea_popescu , believe or not. prior to that knew only from $d00d's crackpottery with 'future markets' (itself stolen from old man admiral poindexter iirc )
asciilifeform: ( he's, approx., a chowdhry . or what was that one called )
mircea_popescu: i thought futa is how you say "cartoon transsexual"
a111: Logged on 2016-06-07 18:18 asciilifeform: some derp named hanson was pushing a crackpottery called 'futarchy', where you have a bitbet-like item that is actually plugged into a robotic monarch that issues edicts
mircea_popescu: hoooooly shit is the wikitard "lesswrong" crowd the comedy goldmine of all tiem
mircea_popescu: "Robin Hanson is right that no-one wants to speak up for the low-status males for fear of being grouped with them. I for one feel compelled to make clear from the outset that I’m a *terribly* high status male who is *overwhelmed* with interest from women, and am only speaking up for those less fortunate than me out of the purest generosity of spirit" << this guy : https://mindsarentmagic.org/
asciilifeform: usb3ization test of 'rockchip' in progress, incidentally.
mircea_popescu: i don't envy any man the miserable but required portions of his job.
asciilifeform: come to think of it, a little proxy box ( make out of ~anything, even pogo ) would handily do the job. think 'chinese firewall https stripper' for home lan. ☟︎
asciilifeform: the 1 other httpsism i can think of that isn't escapable is www sites of iron-sellers. though for this one could use a dedicated toilet.
a111: Logged on 2018-04-05 21:04 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793241 << i've been living for half a year now simply rejecting all websites what are https-only and implement idiotic "modern" ciphers. items such as github etc no longer load for me, and i tell you i don't particularly weep the demise of a bunch of retarded pantsuitsites.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793393 << a quite astonishing amount of proggy, incl. items that cannot be done without unless you can make yer own ic ( errything from the lattice 'ice' proggy, to device drivers for ~100% of extant iron ) is imprisoned in shithub. nao however once it is sprung from this jail -- it is sprung. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-04-05 19:12 trinque: I admittedly *don't* use bash in battlefield, but privately on the workbench
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793274 << i use it, principally to manage curl. ☝︎
trinque has the busybox item coming together in a chroot, on the pizarro node
trinque: from there, can consider *their* portage the "overlay", and can port things over as they come
trinque: s'why I mention busybox later, might be only a handful of packages that get us to booted in userland
a111: Logged on 2018-04-05 19:07 trinque: "be responsible for everything considered republican portage"
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793252 << a good longer term goal, but don't sprain something lifting that. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: not anymore than myspace or hojournal or w/e.
a111: Logged on 2018-04-05 19:04 asciilifeform: i can see an argument for retaining an ability to emulate a sslistic client, for http-fetching heathenware when absolutely must . but beyond this -- it Must Die

a111: Logged on 2018-04-05 18:59 asciilifeform: unrelatedly, trinque , ever looked into purging sslism from gentoo ? in particular the existence of /etc/ca-certificates.conf and its contents as a ~mandatory package, i find quite irritating
a111: Logged on 2018-04-05 18:45 trinque: rce isn't the only thing that'd be interesting, even cpu bog-down or mem usage DoS would be relevant to staying at the front of the chain.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-05#1793228 << it's certainly not the case there's nothing interesting to find digging. it may be premature, in his case, but w/e. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i fully expect, once it comes to geolocated rape and pillage, to hear a lot of "you're illegal!!11". just like before.
mircea_popescu: that they don't understand how anyone else might not be, and wtf "good fucking luck hitting ME with your piddly 30 gram bullets lmao" sort of sociopathy is this!!!1
mircea_popescu: and so following. people with hallucinated options at the ready are ~ballistic gelatin.
mircea_popescu: this is because, you realise, "soldiering wasn't the job THEY HAD CHOSEN FOR THEMSELVES". because "they didn't give a damn about whatever political axe you have to grind, just wanted..."
ben_vulpes: "i mean didja ever read about how the khans army could kill entire cities, and the populations would stand in the fields weeping and waiting their turn?"
mircea_popescu: yet that's what the "moderate rebels" are supposedly managing, "majority revolutions".
trinque tries hard to imagine "majority" revolution, fails. herd mechanics always on the other end of the pointy stick.
