mircea_popescu: but in the world at large you might as well have magical powers.
mircea_popescu: i dun think you appreciate how unthinkable this "we have a single-purpose, fully understood stack running straqight atop lamp" thing is, on account of it being common here.
mircea_popescu: phf Framedragger anyone else with suspect load - may be worth your time to go through logs for those strings, may illuminate vulnerabilities.
mircea_popescu: funny how leah is rapidly becoming the ~equivalent for these idiots of candi-is-a-stripper jen-is-a-sorority-slut etc
mircea_popescu: who the fuck wants to give some random idiot their time, so the random idiot can then turn around and sell it for politics ?!
mircea_popescu: the problem with these idiots (niggers, ie technically-null wanna-be "political" bidnissmen) is that they're so fucking inept politically.
mircea_popescu: damien zammit's piece linked upstream pretty much debunks the whole thing. rowe was a scammer from day one, stole some work from some naive coder people, is trying to pay for his cheetos with it.
mircea_popescu: well, kinda wasted effort, fsf is pretty dead in out books anyway, fwis.
mircea_popescu: what exactly "libreboot is no longer part of the gnu project" is supposed to mean is anyone's guess. the whole existence of gnu is in the form of licenses. they can't retroactively change these. so they'll what, move to mit/bsd licenses in the future ? nobody gives a shit. are they selling to apple ? wouldn't be the first time fraudulent operator tried this under the guise of "good reasonz, guise!!!1"
mircea_popescu: apparently nobody does, holy shit check the count for gnu.org 2016-09.
mircea_popescu: quite. i for one am not the least bit against things boeck-working for the boecks.
mircea_popescu: what was interesting was the "media" value, as seen above.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, because to the sort of vermin technology per se is not interesting.
mircea_popescu: well, unless someone's VERY bored and wants to do a deconstruction/reconstruction of the lizard agitprop into actual text...
mircea_popescu: so basically, let me get this straight, trap from nz with a history of beauty pageants etc, forked some gnu software, nobody cared, then a few years later is trying to run with it and get credit for the intellectual theft ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, sounds like cheap drama. and it can't be THAT seeing how rms used a laptop before 2013.
mircea_popescu: take your "libreboot" which is "transsexual"-aware and shove it.
mircea_popescu: dude... who the fuck wants as much as a farthing's worth of pest control work from someone who regards their mentally deranged state as manifest in their subjective confusion re their sex as an integral part of the process ?
mircea_popescu: incidentally, the penrose book is great ; and as woit aptly points out a very good basis for groking the current affairs re qm/st/etc.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, "He explains that characterizing this as “fantasy” is not meant to be purely critical, that “fantasizing” about the moment of the big bang is what theorists do in the absence of compelling evidence, and that he just has other fantasies he thinks worthwhile."
mircea_popescu: well, not everything, but ontology for humans is sex-based.
mircea_popescu: depends. if you think yeast is a metaphysical process then it indeed needn't.
mircea_popescu: "relationship predicated on functioning of sexual organs".
mircea_popescu: (there is no other basis for ontology in human affairs - if something breaks from phenomenology into being, they will be doing it on sexual basis)
mircea_popescu: it is ontology not phenomenology. the serf is no more than his shackles.
mircea_popescu: (for the innocent : a factory is, originally, where the factors go. and a factor is someone who is empowered to handle money in relation to, eg, indian fur gatherers/traders)
mircea_popescu: that adventure - very much linked to the permanent-factory building.
mircea_popescu: nobody thought in terms of "being employed" cca 1650 ; nor much today.
mircea_popescu: anyway. funny how the adventure of "employment" played out, as a concept.
mircea_popescu: the "factory prison" system appears strictly artefact of 18th century.
mircea_popescu: which, incidentally, was the mode of commerce pre-industry as well as post.
mircea_popescu: "impractical" and "too expensive" ; they use metallic structure now. EXACTLY as permanent as circus tent.
mircea_popescu: you still see the actual industrial buildings, eg here. brick with windows emplaced etc.
mircea_popescu: actually, industrial buildings moved to tents in the 60s/70s, with the great move to china.
mircea_popescu: but hey, at least the-shithead-bureaucrat-who-inherited-apple gets to have his day in the sun about whether the glyph for "gun" should be "water pistol"
mircea_popescu: how cool it is that we ate all the bugs and errors from "supporting utf", because look - there's no fucking glyph-based way to latex, in 2016.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: Framedragger look at the example given ; it's an image.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, if anyone wants to check how wordpress does latex formatting and roll a mp-wp plugin / v update for it that'd be grand. in typical faux open source style, they're remarkably unhelpful with it (see
https://en.support.wordpress.com/latex/ )
mircea_popescu: i can't recall now if it was from the mp or the wp part of the family, but i think mostly the latter really.
mircea_popescu: puts a -d in there, once, when you set it up ; builds its own flalback.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it wouldn't need to alter it however. afaik mp-wp doesn't either ; handles redirects itself like a grown-up system ??
mircea_popescu:
http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160920/#143 << i have no idea ; mp-wp would handle it automatically (in the sense that i can at any time / for any reason change url, old one gets redir to new one ; and also can switch from ?p= to proper title url seamlessly). no idea however about alf-wp
mircea_popescu: however, the problem with this theory is that in practice changing the logger is pretty traumatic.
mircea_popescu: heh. each-reads-his-own was intended as a mechanism to encourage people to select the better package.
mircea_popescu: might as well s/RESTARTING SELF. Reason given: /Restarting for /
mircea_popescu: well if anyone starts ddosing you, it'll be a matter of robustify :)
