a history. This is how samizdat werkz nao.

A Soundstage - Among The Papier Machee, volume 8, and the make-up and blocking... good lord. Mamet's wife has that short cropped "rape & attempted suicide survivor" look sterile women " ;/
mircea_popescu: i am proud to announce that
a piddle of ddos being currently measured isn't even remotely sufficient.
BingoBoingo: PaulCapestany: Yes, otherwise you can register
a GPG key, introduce yourself, and mebbe voice yourself
trinque understands better (he thinks) the "keep it" in "
a republic, if you can keep it", and also the absurdity of to whom that was supposedly addressed
mircea_popescu: contrary to what the kids [like to {pretend like they're}] think{ing}, coding ability is
a relatively unimportant consideration. political ability, in the very simple sense of
a mental capacity for ownership, is the larger half.
mircea_popescu: people can have french loess without being ethnically french. it's
a mental illness, not anything else.
mircea_popescu:
a fine example in this vein would be the case of
a late night trip, during which
a drunk hobo on the street started growling, and
a random, accountant-looking bypasser yelled him down.
mircea_popescu: patriotism, in this case, is
a willingness to die to defend your territory, as you define it - NOT as some woman defines it.
mircea_popescu: "the young man's father,
a smart fellow who has bought hook line and sinker into the theory that satisfying the desires of women is more important than satisfying the needs of men."
mircea_popescu: the current crop of bois have all the patriotism of
a wet noodle.
trinque: I have spent countless hours pruning
a kernel config
trinque: I run without dbus as well, and understand fully why this is
a Good Thing
trinque: it causes me to seriously consider producing
a ports tree of my own
assbot: Logged on 16-02-2016 16:30:16; mircea_popescu: in general - if the question you are about to ask could come out of
a psychanalist, do yourself the favour and save yourself the wrath.
trinque: I can agree readily that's
a sin
felipelalli: At least they really care about security. I tried to compile Bitcoin Core in OpenBSD once but I couldn't (in
a quick & dirt attempt).
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> there is no openbsd sans the ports. << The userland is enough for
a webserver/firewall/etc box
trinque: do you have
a particular vintage of linux kernel you prefer?
mircea_popescu: in general - if the question you are about to ask could come out of
a psychanalist, do yourself the favour and save yourself the wrath.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that never was the unclear part. didja have
a replacement was the unclear part.
mircea_popescu: totally, thank the people who put the hole in, it's because of their "hard work" that you have
a hole to burn.
punkman: "Remote code execution is possible, but not straightforward. It requires bypassing the security mitigations present on the system, such as ASLR. We will not release our exploit code, but
a non-weaponized Proof of Concept has been made available"
mircea_popescu: #b-
a, the driving force behind internet security phenomena. since 2016.
shinohai: There is
a public pool just
a few streets down from me. So many fat people were there last summer I wondered how all the water wasn't displaced.
shinohai: I'm just wondering since she is sitting on the floor if there was
a crane handy to help lift her after this photo was made.
shinohai: What is that mircea_popescu,
a human representation of the Ethereum pyramid scheme?
mod6: morning, just
a heads up here. ben has been testing V for me, and we're going through it. might need another patch tonight.
mircea_popescu: "Last year, The Intercept published documents detailing the NSA's SKYNET programme. According to the documents, SKYNET engages in mass surveillance of Pakistan's mobile phone network, and then uses
a machine learning algorithm on the cellular network metadata of 55 million people to try and rate each person's likelihood of being
a terrorist." << hey, i'm sure they beat them at go, first!

a nation of farmers

a little basket beside the toilet is telling: the infrastructure is fragile." << Very Rural of them
BingoBoingo: "And the architecture! Never was any city more captivated by the rectangle. As you take off from Beijing airport, clumps of residential developments rise relentlessly into the distance, each cluster often 60 or so high-rises apiece, each high-rise 50 or so stories tall — seeming to reproduce SimCity-style as you watch. They are all drab, they are all the same, they are all hideous. (
A student asked after my event whether perhaps
BingoBoingo: Eh, why not just weaponize
a panamax or
a suezmax
a la best korea
mircea_popescu: i'd gladly explain if you used
a verb in your questions like sane people.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: How do you judge the cost of making
a Deepwater port and fulfilling Teller's dream at the same time? You clease the coastal hipster holes.
mircea_popescu: suffice it to be said that if you're looking for
a place to live in case of open hostilities with china (not that there's any likelyhood of that), texas way better than chicago or new york.
mircea_popescu: the current "we will pay lizardhitler cronies" guy is going to try and renegotiate that thing to add
a clause that the base is "not to be used militarily". as if it has any other fucking purpose than ready bombardment of us/canada.
mircea_popescu: in other vaguely lulzy news : previous (socialist) argentine government "signed"
a treaty with china, allowing them
a fancy new "satellite" base in the far south, right next to the pole.
