mircea_popescu:
i have exactly no care in the world for that, ben_vulpes. purposes do not interest me.
mircea_popescu: at some point ideally
i won't have to pay for anything.
ben_vulpes: dude that is five hours away and
i am not seeking valhalla.
BingoBoingo:
I don't think the derps trending #VanillaISIS realize how close they might actually be to right with that label
BingoBoingo:
I'm still thinking the Feds are prolly going to channel Janet Reno and Waco the Oregon resistance though.
assbot: Logged on 05-01-2016 01:37:32; asciilifeform: my main objection to subkey as implemented in gpg is that IT DOES NOT TELL YOU OR EVEN LET YOU CHOOSE with which modulus (
i.e. which sub) it actually signs with !
mircea_popescu: but yes -
i would have loved to be a bff of gpg. instead we're just best enemies.
BingoBoingo:
I don't think
I covered any thing about the subkeys in mine. One of the things passed around before that LOVED subkeys.
assbot: Logged on 24-09-2015 06:18:08; mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: one example of something which Must Die is 'subkeys' << absolutely.
i have no fucking idea what chickenbrain thought that's a thing. "o hey, you know what this chevy is made out of ? chevys! because they didn;'t get me that lego set when
i was nine and now im fucked in the head."
kakobrekla:
i should add some logging to key updating
phf: ow, perhaps
i could pretend like it's related to the thread about monks transcribing the log
trinque:
I was contrasting with #b-a, but yes
davout: IRC doesn't have "likes", "shares" etc. is what
I mean
shinohai:
I though it was a terrorist recruitment centre. That's why
I came here :/
phf:
i thought this place is an elaborate mpex ad?
Tomiii: sorry,
i didn't mean to offend anyone--
I'm just more of an optimist. E.g.
i try to teach friends about Linux, bitcoin, encryption, etc
Tomiii: mircea_popescu:
i was given voice by the members here
thestringpuller: Tomiii:
I'm just thoroughly convinced social media cannot foster intellectualism.
thestringpuller: As far as
I can tell social media is just Xanga on steroids.
shinohai: Strange
I was running it on wheezy for weeks but that was after
I first came here. Been using 8.0 for ~3 months
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski:
i really wanted to get it working at this LAN party
I went to but just bleeeh.
thestringpuller:
i thought instagram was invented so rappers could holla at basic white girls who hang out at da club.
thestringpuller:
I find it hard to find something to Qntra cause news
i find is just derps derpin' around
copypaste: and further -
i've read your essays about dead books, you can simply put the merchant onto the trash heap. although
i'd rather it not be placed there
copypaste: neither have
i - but
i read a news report where they killed a muslim because he ate beef
mircea_popescu: yes, or perhaps
i wanted a cow mounted on my kitchen wall to give me milk.
ascii_butugychag:
i have netbsd running on, what, a dead squirrel in a cardboard box maybe, somewhere.
ascii_butugychag: at any rate
i can't see how this relates, nobody compiles on motherfucking phone
mircea_popescu:
i'm unfamiliar with any jurisdiction where
i'd give a shit.
copypaste: note how
i qualified that based on the country you are in determines the legality
mircea_popescu: no
i mean,
i don't believe shakespeare's loose mores detracts from his literary value.
copypaste: oh no, up until that point it was an excellent metaphor,
i understand why you left it where you did
mircea_popescu: copypaste
i think it's nonsensical pandering and not really worth the mention.
copypaste:
i just found it odd how you skipped the end is all
copypaste: also, mircea_popescu, if
i may ask you what you think of the end of the Merchant of Venice, in this article
http://trilema.com/the-most-serene-republic-and-its-laws you quote a good portion of it, but skip the end of the proceedings where the out of town lawyer is invited in and (nonsensically, in a deus ex machina way, in my opinion) determines that blood is not part of one's flesh and therefore the
mircea_popescu:
i have no doubt that yes, if we wish for her heavily indebted persona to be evenr marginally sustainable then yeah,
i OUGHT to be unattractive etc.
mircea_popescu: yeah well... good luck and all that, but it seems
i'm discussing the is and she the ought.
mircea_popescu: pasted material being point in case, the woman "just knows" that
i'm not attractive, notwithstanding that
i'm willing to bet that's the most popular profile on the entire site, and what the fuck would she know about what gets teeny sluts hot anyway ?!
mircea_popescu: there seems to be a pervasive meta-conviction that so and so, but
i have never yet encountered the thing it purports as a practical matter. as best
i can determine it's just another fashion, self-induced. people have read "on the internet" that the government hid elvis in hoffa's urinary tract and so now "everyone thinks so".
mircea_popescu: and honestly,
i blame you dumb fucks. that dumbass lived her entire life without anyone ever telling her what her place in the world is,
i'm ready to bet. it's a shameful fucking situation.
mircea_popescu:
i can do the grepping
i do on computers as they are. and if they'll be twice as fast
i won't notice. like
i've not noticed any improvement since the 90s.
mircea_popescu: the point, mind you, isn't even a "z80" planet. and yes
i think that extremely unlikely.
mircea_popescu: that
i crushed them like worms last year doesn't JUST mean
i now have gavin's head and yet another painful humiliation inflicted upon usg's asshole.
jurov:
i was talking about blocks/transaction verification, not mining either
mircea_popescu: jurov
i wanted to detach the mining discussion from this discussion, because it is unrelated.
mircea_popescu: jurov no, the point is that what
i need the things to do, they do well and
i have space to spare (heck,
i went for breakfast, figuring it'll take minutes. it would have been fine if it did). meanwhile what THEY need to do, the machines already can't cope with.
jurov: mircea_popescu:
i don't get the premise, you're able to grep gigabyte in 2s on z80?
ascii_butugychag: what
i propose is that the cheap shed skin of the snake, is not the snake.
mircea_popescu: tbh,
i had originally written pentium
i and then cancelled it out.
mircea_popescu:
i suspect they won't wish to live in the alternate world.
mircea_popescu: and c) no, the electricity's not coming back. and no,
i don't mean tonight.
mircea_popescu: so :
i am a rich land developer,
i buy some land, develop housing. it's 16 lots, which are bought the same year by 16 couples.
mircea_popescu: but the point remains that what
I use computers for and what they use computers for are very much disjunct, and relevantly so : they require about two or maybe three degrees of magnitude more materiel.
mircea_popescu: to make an alternate but related point :
i just ran grep -Fxv -f on two files, about a million records together. the ~quarter mn result took all of two seconds.
mircea_popescu: but no. the more
i think about it, the more etched silicone is not something you wish to marry to.
