ben_vulpes: all
the fg sitting here are spoken for; did mod6 ever get a quote for
the
ten or so i wanted?
ben_vulpes: how about we wait until it's online, i'll
take your handshake until
then
mircea_popescu: o wait, another point : i want 2 fgs into
this
thing. you dun have fgs do you ?
ben_vulpes: although perhaps i gotta sell it
to you as i won't have a spare
to fulfill
that promise until
the next run.
BingoBoingo: AHA,
the wonderful world of retail "rent
to own contracts" has opened up. ben_vulpes how long do you plan
to keep boxes on
the balance sheet?
mircea_popescu: so what's
the deal here : i pay for a year, at
the price of 0.048xxx * 12 / 2 * 1.2 ; at
the end of
the year i don't own
the machine ; but if it breaks down during
the year you replace it free of charge
to me ?
ben_vulpes: i can give you a pretty steep discount for paying
the year up front, but because i'm building out
the downline i want
to keep
the box on
the balance sheet. how about a 20% markup on
the machine if you pay for
the whole year?
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: mno. if you rent it out for 2x what it costs
to buy it over a year,
then if i pay for
the whole year i'm basically spending
the same money as if buying
the machine, but not actually buying it.
this is a bum deal. i'm willing
to rent it (ie, monthly) or buy it (ie, own it), but i'm not willing
to eat
the downside of both approaches.
ben_vulpes: eg yours for
the year but not purchasing
the machine?
mircea_popescu: ie, i'm willing
to either buy
the machine or rent it ; but pick one.
mircea_popescu: do i still have
to pay 2x
the cost if i pay for
the year upfront ?
ben_vulpes: you wanna pay for a year of hardware up front and invoices for rack space as
they come due?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes consider it sold ; where do i pay ? send diana
teh login details.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: maybe a little on
teh expensive side, but, let's not be splitting hairs.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
talking about
the mb/cpu combo in
the abstract, imma nuke it on
this machine for certainsure; will update post
mircea_popescu: also, wasn't specifically a proposal ; was just an example,
to get
that ball rolling already.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes so did you disable
the me engine ? or "could be but hasn't been" ?
a111: Logged on 2018-02-23 15:34 mircea_popescu: also ben_vulpes :
the
thinking over at s.mg is
that we want a dedicated box for
teh server plus a vps for holding
the website and such
things, so we don't have
to eat
the whole apache overload on
the game server.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-24 15:22 mircea_popescu: seems rather
the right approach neh ?
BingoBoingo: Seems
to be
the case with a lotta 2013 names
BingoBoingo: 1800's South America has some
truly lulzy history. Buenos Aires and Brasilero Empire agree
to make Uruguay as a buffer state. Proceed
to beat up on Uruguay for a decade. Buenos Aires, Brasilero empire, and Uruguay make peace by going up river and beating Paraguay into pretribal Apocalypse.
BingoBoingo: And 50,000 people
turns into 1,000,000 plus and "Where my country gone"
BingoBoingo: They area I'm in Pocitos/Buceo barrios were resort
towns until
the city swallowed
them. Most of
the other Barrios came into
the city similarly as encampments and villages
that
the city just kind of grew into. Reading into
the history here it was a sparsely populated country of men until
the 1880's.
Then
the Italians came.
BingoBoingo: I'm still learning and
this is a very rural city.
mircea_popescu: i dunno if it did anything fgor
them
though, i've not been back
mircea_popescu: local receptionist girly (that's
the supreme social achievement for
the hairdresser class chickie here, being a doc's receptionist is almost as good as being marriewd
to him) at
the cima hospital (best in
the country!!!) was utterly shocked when my response
to her
telling me
the doctor who was like 10 mins late just called
to say he's "on his way" but no specific eta wasn't "ok, ok" but "thast's unfortunate, i have other appo
BingoBoingo: I've learned local moo cows get a bit more responsive
the next
time, after walking away from
them because you have an appointment
to make. Actual appointment not necessary.
mircea_popescu isn't just saying
things,
to fit in with
the crowd or
the fashions of his generation or whatever. literally, "help you achieve your goals".
mircea_popescu: and yes, re rythm :
time discipline is not a
torture device, it's a
tool. it's supposed
to help you achieve your goals not make life inconvenient.
mircea_popescu: unsupportive, eh. well, so sit it somewhere and
turn on
the
timer, what can i
tell ya.
BingoBoingo: I have as well, in addition
to
the blog writing. Events have been very 2013 part II entonces feel I ought read more 2013 and 2014
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> hard sheep makes a life worth living, eh ? << It really does. Who knew getting fired could be such a great
thing when
the right person does
the firing.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo i've been quite enjoying your last articles btw. <<
Thank you.
mircea_popescu: i really should link
that bit about
teh bureaucrats more often.
mircea_popescu: a
there we go, extern void xalloc_die(void) __attribute__((noreturn));
a111: Logged on 2018-02-24 04:54 phf: also make vdiff `-D_Noreturn=__attribute__\\\((noreturn\\\))' is even better work around, but
the combination of shell/makefile seems
to pass
the parenthesis
through on bash but not on zsh...
mircea_popescu: so
the problem of how
to alphabetically sort meta-alphabetic signs is not liable
to be informed by ancient practice.
mircea_popescu: truth --
the latins were idiots ; nevermind
they didn't even have zero in
their lol of a numeration system --
they didn't even have commas. or, for
that matter, dots. meta-alphabetic notation (such as
the dash here
that permited me
to ~signify~ something about symbol relation) is entirely a post-industrial invention. fuck,
the bright minds of alchemy-era mathematics didn't even have =.

that works for me also, i seem
to recall
threads where alphabets were discussed and maybe byte order was dismissed, but my memory is vague on subject
mircea_popescu: (for
the innocent : a wildcatter is say philiph's character in clemens' "the gilded age", or more generally any guy who sees a mine where no one else does.)

☟︎ phf: and both 4.6 and 4.4 refuse
to compile it. a
temporary workaround is
to compile with `make vdiff -D_Noreturn='
phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-23#1785630 << so offending attribute is _Noreturn, which is a c11 feature
that was only introduced in 4.7. but! i
tested with 4.6.4 on freebsd before release, i now also compiled 4.4.3 and it still works. running cpp-4.4 on
the file it looks like something in freebsd headers actually replaces _Noreturn with an __attribute__ call
that older gcc's support. with a
test file with `void _Noreturn foo() {...}' but without any includes,
☝︎ BigTexasBingo: mircea_popescu used correctly. Me voy a dormir nuevamente. Not often a person can catch a live painsuit in
the logs
these days.
orgndnor: i don't use facebook or
twatter, sir
orgndnor: i like
to reside privately and peruse
the worlds data
to form my own assumptions.
mircea_popescu: is
that how incels digest
their incelcity
these days ?
mircea_popescu: the funny part isn't
that he assumes we're heterosexuals ; but he assumes we know he's male.
orgndnor: may
the mother forever burn for such
transgression.
mircea_popescu: orgndnor did your mommy
tell you sarcasm is what cucks do while in
the cock cage ?
BigTexasBingo: Orangeponer: Por favor poner una boligrapho en
tu ano y sacar una foto
orgndnor: well, fellows, you are just
that much superior; no way i can engage.
mircea_popescu: the delusion of access is aftert all
the fundamental cornerstone of pantsuitism. hence all
the inept wank a la lucy, and hence
the butthurt gal on day of failure comment section
trinque: poor
thing
thinks I'm ingroup signaling with it
mircea_popescu: trinque
the fundamental problem is
that it's really unfair you'd listen
to one but not another. how could
this be! ALL
THINGS ARE
THE SAME
THING etc
orgndnor: seeing as how
this is
the "serene" republic? most?
trinque: and he
thought "this is it; I'll
tell
them how it really be, and
they'll dig"
orgndnor: wsup = hood english
transliterates
to: "what is up" hence defining a query as
to
the current subject relevant
BigTexasBingo: And I need an answer on what is wsup, and how does it connect
to hair
theory.
orgndnor: the way of
the future isn't
through bitcoin, sirs; blockchain, maybe, but crypto? pipe dream!
orgndnor: dpb
told me
trilema is anti-usgov.
orgndnor: but it'll be wiped into dust soon enough as
this all will.

mircea_popescu: try and understand
that
taking refuge in a string of nouns after having pointed out
to you
that most people will just discard out of hand strings of epithets as pure painstuitola isn't
the best of strategies.
orgndnor: you know goddamn well what
te intention is with
the wsup vernacular
orgndnor: i get it if singularity is wsup. maybe you got inside
tech knowledge.
